The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I prefer my autocrats in .txt

but seriously why are we censoring "pedophile" here?

[–] rafoix@lemmy.zip 22 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I self censored for no reason really.

I think I’ve written the word pedophile too much lately and wanted to mix things up a bit.

Why does acrobat support PDF files? 

[–] chode_tode@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

They're in the files...

Oh, I thought you were legitimately opposed to PDF files, I guess they are not as bad at the eps files.

[–] rafoix@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

I’ve always had issues with PDF files on Windows. I do not want Acrobat Reader!

Sounds like a shitty dictator...
