If they did that, the next thing you know the people who design cameras would have them automatically zip up all the information that goes along with the pictures into that format, and then weirdos will want their standard image viewer to accommodate for the image files their camera natively creates.
And I would just take a decent camera that doesn't put stupid information with my photos

It's like files are just a collection of different elements put together in a container format or something.

@anotherusername I guess the only potential flaw could be if someone (for some reason) saw the image, copied the url and did
<iframe src="http://bad.site/foo.jpg" />
But if you embed anything inside an iframe you're asking for trouble.
Does that actually do anything if the Content-Type header is set to image/jpeg?
I mean that's exactly what Content-Type was invented for.

It's called defense in depth, and you're an idiot if you think removing layers is a good idea because UI needs to be "clean".

@blakeyrat said in Valid JPG and HTML in one file:
@groo Well yes, but that's not hard since it never leaves my pocket ever.
TIL @blakeyrat has only one pair of pants, and that he never washes them. Ew. Or at least he always wears the same pair when he drives. Does he never wash them, or is his RFID key rugged enough to survive multiple trips through the washer and dryer? Since we know Blakeyrat (my phone has learned to autocomplete it) is always absolutely literal and never resorts to hyperbole, he doesn't take it out of his pocket even long enough to transfer it to another pair of pants.
-
@HardwareGeek maybe he goes into the washer/dryer wearing the pants. it's like a shower and laundry combined.
-
@HardwareGeek the big question is if it's jeans or slacks

Not all of them are so blatant. Not even this one I encountered recently:

Not when typical urls end up looking like

The idea is that people stop paying attention after the first few words.
-
@Tsaukpaetra There was a stage when people liked to do URLs like
http://yourbank.com@hacked-host.net/upload/loginform.exe
Nice username there. Not at all suspicious…
-
@Fox and yet they do that because people still click on them.

Adam Savage's and Blakey's, too, probably.
Apropos of this, the first time I took a picture on my Nexus 5X, it asked me if I wanted to turn on geocoding. Every Android phone before that silently had it on by default.
-
@groo I'm not too worried about that. My full name is Bender Bending Rodriguez and my advertising preferences are "hookers, beer, and cigars, not necessarily in that order".
You'd be surprised how difficult it was to get the advertising prefs set that way.

Perhaps when one pair wears out, he cuts the pocket out and sews it into a new pair.
-
@groo Actually he got deported because he (probably) killed a guy.
-
@FrostCat No, Belizean government killed his neighbor when they tried to kill him or something.
-

That would not be lossless. If nothing else, you lose the original image's size -- it's already padded out with something, but its dimensions tell where it should be cropped. Also if you change the color of the pixels used for padding along an edge, then you have to decode and re-encode a stripe of pixels along that edge, which is lossy.

@groo said in Valid JPG and HTML in one file:

Oh, that's a good conspiracy theory and sounds like something he might say!
"On November 12, 2012, Belize police started a search for McAfee as a "person of interest" in connection to the murder of American expatriate Gregory Viant Faull. Faull was found dead of a gunshot wound on November 11, 2012, at his home on the island of Ambergris Caye, the largest island in Belize.[51][52] Faull was a neighbor of McAfee."

Nonsense, look at all those nice pink pixels you gain!

@groo said in Valid JPG and HTML in one file:
but you have to remember to take it with you, right?
My car beeps piercingly at me if I leave my key inside.
-
@Yamikuronue Only if you leave the door open and the electrics are on.
-
@lucas1 ...no?
-
@Yamikuronue Depends on the model, but have 4 key turn positions.
- Off
- Basic Electrics (radio and clock basically)
- Proper Electrics (everything, and as it is a diesel the coils should be left to heat before ignition, otherwise you can damage the injectors).
- Ignition
If I shut the door with the key in and it is off or at position 1. It won't chime.
It will chime if I have the driving and I don't put of seatbelt on, but not if the car can be stolen.
-
@lucas1 said in Valid JPG and HTML in one file:

Mine will refuse to lock itself, and flash the headlights, if you try to shut the driver's door, if it's locked and the keys are in the ignition. (I don't have the fancy RFID presence detect fobs).
-
@lucas1 Okay, but my car beeps at me if I leave my keys inside and try to lock it. And since "locking it" consist of "touching the handle" and I'm forgetful, I get beeped at fairly often.
-
@FrostCat My car is about 10 years old now (I've only been driving about a year). So I dunno a lot about cars.
I have central locking. I drove to my dad's house and I parked up and forgot to put the windows back up (it was a warm day) and I started walking back to my car to put the keys in the ignition to wind the windows back up. My dad said "what are you doing .. it is a vauxhall, just hold the lock button" and all the windows went up ...
-
@Yamikuronue I can't lock without using the lock button on the keys. I also leave my car unlocked at a lot (at home, the is soo little crime nothing will ever happen).
-

It's fair to assume different manufacturers do different things. I was just saying how my car reacts.
-

You don't have a button on each door? What if your fob's battery dies while you're inside and the doors are locked?
-
@Yamikuronue said in Valid JPG and HTML in one file:

Mine just locks my key inside.
Fortunately, the lock buttons are easy enough to pull up using the strapping tape technique, and there's always a bit of strapping tape lying around.

this is how your car reacts, mine reacts very differently.
to turn my car on for electronics:
- get in
- do NOT depress the brake
- press the ignition button
to turn on for vroom vroom
- get in
- depress the brake
- press the ignition button
to get beeped at for forgetting your keys in the car.
- press the ignition button while at a full stop to engage park and turn off engine
- leave the vehicle without taking your key with you.
There's a reason my key is on a carabiner clipped to my belt.... otherwise i would forget it in the car or at work far too often.

Here in the 21st century, where people got tired of getting their cars stolen by people doing that, they redesigned the lock buttons so you can't. good luck trying that trick with this:

An anti-bark collar would train you better to stop forgetting them, probably.

you would think so.... but i burned out the first one, and drained the batteries on the second.
besides the carabiner technique works a treat.
-
@accalia The distinction between the two start modes seem obnoxious, although maybe that's partly because it's different. What's wrong with one turn for accessories, two for on?

I'll bet, especially if you clip it to a genital piercing.

the key's still on my belt for the whole procedure.
