What are You Working on Wednesday
Weekly thread to discuss whatever you’re working on, big or small, at work or in your free time.
I build open-source USB Dead Man Switches and the accompanying (also free) software
Watch the BusKill Explainer Video for more info youtube.com/v/qPwyoD_cQR4 You attach the kill cable to your body and if the connection between you to your computer is severed, then your device will lock, shutdown, or shred its encryption keys. It's designed to protect high-risk users’ data. Data could include private keys (eg theft of cryptocurrency assets), contacts of correspondence (eg sources of a journalist – such as whistleblowers), etc.
A website wordlist generator that's better than CeWL for ronin-web using ronin-web-spider (based on spidr) and the wordlist library. Current writing the man page, there's a lot of options to document.
I've been desiring properly dedicating myself to completing a long-term project. I want to create something similar to "Academy of Ideas" on Youtube. With no specific goals set yet, I've been writing all my ideas and deep thoughts. What I write will one day become topics and starting points for something which just about anyone could relate to, and improve from. I'm only at the starting line on a track to go down for many years to come. One which will hopefully benefit many, many other people for a long time coming.
W/e project you're most interested in, I recommend having a blog to document your journey as you go. =)
Me personally, I've been working on adding a bunch of features to my site. So much so that I even added a roadmap page to my own site (mostly for my own viewing haha). I just got the "hamburger menu" up and am now embarking on some theme toggling (dark/light mode). After that I can get into the real work I wanted to begin which was adding true IndieWeb functionality to the site. Check this out to see what I mean - https://indieweb.org/IndieMark.
Need to stop procrastrinating and write another small util and start on something as well. I'm really tired.
What kind of small util are you considering?
I want to automate generating SSH keys and copying to server all on the client side which I want to use in conjuction with my other SSH tool.
Might also write some middleware for a HTTPS redirector, but haven't decided. Feeling a bit under the weather at the moment so...
I'm working on a comprehensive Restic backup playbook for all my homelabs stuff - backing up to Wasabi S3 (encrypted of course).
So far, so good - the biggest challenge is figuring out what exactly needs to be backed up in order to completely recover.
PDNS and Proxmox are the big bugbears. Netbox/misc other servers are fairly straightforward.
Dope. I wish I had more time for some hardcore home-labbing stuff. Well, it's not that I don't have time, it's just I have a ton of other projects I keep lumping on top... need to just finish some things and then get into it...
