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
@mahaloz Looks really exciting, can't wait to dig in!
Me, today: I'll start working on this problem in May.
Shit, it's May.
@mxey @timb_machine You are right, I can hijack the parent PTY - TIL, will edit the original post!
@mxey @timb_machine I'm not sure I follow: sudo runs as root (since it's setuid root), as well as other processes it creates, so I can't ptrace them from my lame user account. If we talk about ptracing a low-priv shell before it elevates via sudo, that's possible but not the same as hijacking an already running privileged terminal (larger window of opportunity/user interaction requirement).
