I don't believe doom should be playable in any document, being able to, in my opinion, is a sign of software vulnerability.
Oh yes. Adobe Reader has a reputatation for ongoing vulnerabilities. (Count: 1901 at time of comment)
Part of it was Adobe's shitty security culture for many years. They've done a good job search-washing this away, but many of us remember their previous CEO lashing out at security researchers - as if Adobe being a Cybersecurity laughing stock was some kind of conspiracy.
Part of it is simply that becoming the final word in portable documents required a lot of shenanigans.
For some context, and contrast:
Edit: In fairness, Adobe Reader is (whether it should be or not) also closer to Firefox in functionality, as well.
How about LaTeX vulnerabilities? :-D
Lol. 26 known vulnerabilities in Latex
It uses JavaScript sadly. I was hoping for Postscript...
Until it runs on my .txt pc i don't care
Do you mean... Notepad Doom?

That's exactly the sort of thing I was thinking of. Holy shit, its amazing. Ok ok, I will care now.
What’s next? Doom on a power bank display?
Sadly doesn't work on Firefox :^(
Probably a good thing from a security perspective
That’s ok nothing else does either :P
I know it's a joke, but I'm totally typing this message out to you on Firefox and it is working just fi
:D
