Hiding Shit

When storing tools and such (read: porn), and you live with other people, it may be necessary to hide your shit. There are several ways to do this.

Hiding in JPEGs

Intro

Basically, in the header of a jpeg it specifies where the data for the picture ends, so you can safely append binary data (like rar archives) to the end of jpeg images, and the image will still work.

Hiding in .docx

3. Add the files you want to a folder called word

4. Then open the [Content_Types].xml

5. Add a line for each file you added near the other lines replacing "filename.file" with the name of your file:

<Override PartName="/word/filename.file" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document.main+xml" />

6. Save the file.

7. Rename the docx.
