You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

@tychotithonus I was contemplating the same recently too:

As @stf pointed out Shibboleths had about the same function throughout the centuries:

The last couple of days I worked with @tmr232 to bring binaries to his @cfgbot.

Here's my script to export CFG's in DOT and JSON formats from #Ghidra:

I also exported the latest Microsoft Defender and openssl binaries:

I just timed this with 30k files, git commit took <0.5s total on my non-accelerated terminal.

I still don't get GPU accelerated terminal emulators.

I just git added a directory of >100k files in a non-accelerated terminal and I didn't even notice the combined lag of terminal prints **and** git tree updates in the background. I only noticed the change was this large because GitHub complained!

I'm pretty certain all my remaining German skills are thanks to Rammstein.

[RSS] The Alder Lake SHLX Anomaly

https://tavianator.com/2025/shlx.html

"It seems like SHLX performs differently depending on how the shift count register is initialized. If you use a 64-bit instruction with an immediate, performance is slow."
