  • flat earthers are only unified by the belief that the globe model is fake.

    they all pick and choose which models they like, based on what conspiracy theories they subscribe to, and what “evidence” they believe in.

    for example the model i described fits in well with hollow earth conspiracies like annunaki or lizzard people and “nasa hides the poles to cover up the truth”

    and when they are confronted with evidence that disproves one of their models its suddenly a strawman that no real flat earther believes in. and they pull out a different model that is entirely designed around addressing that one issue. (rinse and repeat if you disprove the next model)

    its an sql injection attack.
    its rather unlikely that it works in a modern app.

    assuming this would work,
    it injects a command in the sql database.

    it is assumed that the app runs a sql querry with the input field as a parameter e.g.
    INSERT INTO "bills" (item, ammount, tip) VALUES ("steak", "20,00 $", "content of the custom tip goes here");

    the semicolon indicates the end of the querry,
    so the the text would cause the app to run an unfinished querry, and then start a new querry that messes up the content of the bills table.


  • this stuff really pisses me off,
    i remember recently watching a video about tekken8.

    the devs aparently made an announcement that boils down to “we need to monetize the shit out of this game now to make our monney back”
    and the streamer just went “yeah thats reasonable”

    they have the sales figures for tekken 7, and tekken 7 was an online game, so they know their active userbase.
    (and they also now charge 70 bucks)

    so they have at least a vague idea of how much monney they’ll make.

    how can you screw up your budget that bad unless you senslessly dump money at your release.

    yeah cutting edge graphics are neat,
    but thats incredibly expensive.
    and imo not that nececary for a great experience.

    maybe a game that needs to nickle and dime its playerbase shouldnt be made in the first place?

    thats downright boring next to some of the models they come up with.

    there is a model with a hollow/torus earth,
    were the sun is on the inside, while we are on the outside.

    the sun dips up and down anlong the poles and leaves through the gigant holes in the arctic&antarctic (that nasa covers up)
    which causes the daylight cycle.

    and the sun moving throughout the sky is just an illusion caused by atmospheric lensing
