You could probably embed a video stream the same way --- as the name implies, streaming formats are specifically designed so that it's not necessary to find the "start" or "end" of the stream, but instead sync markers with a distinctive pattern are present at regular intervals so readers can just look for those and begin decoding.
FaceTime is routinely used to just hang out with your family or buds, your presumption that doing other stuff is automatically rude just doesn't hold up.
jgalt212 didn't say that it was rude, only that doing other things during a call shows the level of importance one assigns to the call. There's not necessarily anything rude about assigning a call low importance.
Is it rude that you suggested that FaceTime calls are so unimportant it's expected you'll be distracting yourself with other activities while they're going on? If not, why not?
> 250e3f7d581acff115537ba38e89ad31 is a handy random 128-bit integer that will appear in every issue of Lab 6 and can be used to search for copies.
I really like this idea for uniquely identifying emails. Our shop had been messing with something similar, but had trouble bridge the gap between the lay people and the technical minded people.
Can you search on that via a Gmail or Outlook client? I did not think you could, and we were looking for shorter strings. e.g. 10 character Base58 string gets you approx 10^17 uniques.
It’s true that Simpsons Did It Already, but one difference is that the PoC||GTFO files are essentially exploits of PDF readers, whereas these files are valid PDFs that comply with the spec.
If that's true, I don't even consider a Simpsons Did It. Polyglot files exploiting common tools are far less interesting ones than those that are actually within spec. Especially if the spec wasn't designed as polyglot spec.
PoC||GTFO files render correctly in all major PDF readers, so if it isn't following the letter of the spec, it's at least adhering to a common interpretation of it.
There's also Vol 2, which is a PDF/A document that also parses as text/gemini: http://lab6.com/2
The last one has interesting discussion on the future of information archiving.
