infosex.exchange <3

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

Was that exploit non-admin x-user exploit @gossithedog talked about ever released?

@mttaggart @AAKL @jerry Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the convos I have here! But I definitely don't see the expert2expert interactions (usually not involving me :)) that were usual on Twitter. I don't have numbers, and I also rarely go there, but my _impression_ (this is what counts right?) is that such conversations still happen more on the birdsite, and there's also interesting research _only_ posted there.

@AAKL @jerry True, but part of the problem is that somehow much of the infosec discussions still don't seem to happen here. I'm usually astonished by the amount of content I have to x-post from X...

@jerry @AAKL I created my account on Akkoma because it had a more sensible approach to search back in the day and I also have an acc on infosec.exchange (Mastodon) just for search. Last time I checked none of them worked as I expect them to work (like I'm unable to find stuff by searching for exact phrases). I know people who don't use Fedi because of this.

It also seems to me that while I follow almost exclusively infosec people, much of the content I see is about unrelated and mostly depressing topics like war, climate change, etc. I get these are important topics, but I guess the last app anyone wants on their phone is a Bad News Machine.

@joeycastillo So glad you are working on this, having some sample code at hand for the accelerometer would be extremely useful!

@infosecdj That's what I feared :( thanks for the feedback!

Any hints about what can cause these vertical lines on my Featherwing OLED display (SH1107)? Soldering is definitely messy but I dont think that would cause such static, localized errors.

Everything I knew about Python parameter passing was fucking a lie.
