(1984) Reflections of Trusting Trust by Ken Thompson
It’s a really short PDF and it’s not as technical as it seems, but gives a good lesson on how programs evolve, and what exactly trust means in the software world
Hercolobus Or Red Planet, by V. M. Rabolou… it’s ‘interesting’.
The technical plans for the Death Star.
Are there any vulnerabilities? Asking for a friend
Ooh! Link? ^^
I just cleaned up my downloads so I no longer have it, but a couple weeks ago it was a copy of Maid: The Role-Playing Game
I found the Cunt Coloring Book from the 1970’s. Yes, scanned in as PDF. Yes, a few pages were already colored in, mostly psychedelic colors though.
And yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like, a bunch of hand drawn lady parts to be colored in.
Ah I didn’t think to look into that part of my downloads for PDFs
I’m so curious
Nothing special enough to share, nor would I even share such works, especially with all the pages stuck together…
Depends on your weird.
I write, so there’s a ton of stuff on decomposition, forensics, and related subject matter that are weird by some standards.
I’ve got stuff on niche mythology too, for the same reason. Along with that is stuff on modern paganism, syncretic religions, and related subjects. Again, weird by some standards.
But I tend to think the morbid stuff is what would catch most people by surprise.
What’s a pdf that most surprised you?
Ahh, probably the one that gave visuals of bloat and skin slippage.
I’ve seen plenty of dead bodies (did some hospice work, ran across a suicide in the woods, and a few accidents), but I’d never seen that segment of decomp.
It’s both worse than I expected, and somehow not as bad.
Where do you usually find it at? I’m a horror writer and that sort of thing would be handy to have for my work.
It used to be Google scholar. It was pretty easy to find good stuff when I was digging into it. Not sure if it’s still a reliable place though
Nice.
I came in here to post about having a copy of Titus Burkhardt’s Alchemy tome and DKMU Assault On Reality but I think yours might take the cake instead, as well as possibly including both of those texts.
In my mailbox…My arrest warrant from the Dutch police.
What are the charges?

Get your hands off my penis!
Ah so you send me that .pdf, tuff luck
For burning kuran ?
Ok, this is definitely the winning comment. I’m crossing my fingers for you bro
I have the working draft of this year’s List of Items for the Official University of Chicago Official Scavenger Hunt, the world’s largest -and probably weirdest- annual scavenger hunt.
I didn’t know they did this. Where can I learn more?
That sounds fun!
Mine is this report by the central bank where they tested the insurance sector at-large for resillience to financial shocks. ^(Although after reading some books by nassim nicholas taleb, I realize that testing using the worst imaginable shocks isn’t sufficient as black swan events are by their nature unpredictable)
Guidelines for a Space Propulsion Device Based on Heim’s Quantum Theory
I thought it sounded interesting, but the mathematics was beyond me.
CIA sabotage handbook.
Should add the poor man’s James bond. The anarchist cookbook. The army survival manual. There is an old army improvised munitions manual.
There are lots of fun reads that should probably be held onto.
Let’s see, The CIA’s Simple Sabotage Field Manual, some paper on MKultra, some paper about The Hum, Some scientific paper on the longevity of recordable optical media, and a paper about crows.
This feels pretty niche…
The Death report for Kurt Cobain. Mostly from morbid curiosity and a love for Nirvana. I don’t do that for everyone or anything like that. That’s the weirdest one. 😅
