they're hacking PDFs now

[wordshaper@weatherishappening.network]

@dysfun There are only something like five different language interpreters built into Acrobad and the PDF standard, I'm sure it's secure.

btw if you didn't know, PDF stands for Portable Dumpster Fire

@wordshaper@weatherishappening.network @dysfun@social.treehouse.systems now I want to see if any of those interpreters can run a fedi instance......

[dysfun@social.treehouse.systems]

@rachel @wordshaper your difficulty is going to be making system calls for http traffic.

@deech@mastodon.social @dysfun@social.treehouse.systems we had a presenter I e time export a slide deck from keynote but had used apple fonts so they had to present slides with no text in them

And this org is awful about wordy slides

@dysfun@social.treehouse.systems @wordshaper@weatherishappening.network you won't regret running adobe acrobat as admin

[wordshaper@weatherishappening.network]

@rachel @dysfun It's been a while since I looked but I recall their being at least Flash, a custom language for barcode and QR code generation, and I think three separate versions of JavaScript (ignoring the whole "PFD is sort of stripped-down postscript" thing) so I'm sure you can find at least one of those that makes network calls.

[wordshaper@weatherishappening.network]

@rachel @dysfun Of course not! By the time you get to running Adobe Acrobad as admin you're so far beyond regret you can't see it with a telescope.

[rogerbw@discordian.social]

@dysfun It is a mere shadow of the beautiful PostScript.

[dysfun@social.treehouse.systems]

@RogerBW oh no, it's so much more. postscript doesn't have this much power.
