My Software Projects, Security Research, and other Computery Stuff
This is a list of my favorite side projects and open-source work, collected into a single list so I can pin it to my profile. Replies are welcome!
- I'm the creator and lead dev of ModShark, a standalone auto-moderator for Sharkey instances. There's a severe lack of good moderation features for fediverse nodes, but I hope to improve the situation with ModShark and other independent tools.
- I occasionally publish fedi-admin-scripts, a small collection of scripts, queries, and documentation for admins of Sharkey and Akkoma instances. The goal here is low-effort knowledge sharing for the benefit of other admins.
- One of my larger projects is AP-WAF, a plugin-based extensible firewall for ActivityPub software. I hope it can bridge the feature gap between different fediverse servers by moving low-level moderation and security features into the middleware layer.
- I'm building ActivityPubSharp, an implementation of ActivityPub in C#. I'm using a novel approach to model AP's dynamically-typed extensions model in a type-safe way without sacrificing C#'s efficient, strong typing model.
- I built little-log-scan as a tool to track botnets and other internet threats. LLS ingests webserver logs through a series of heuristic rules to detect known vulnerabilities, identify payload types, and aggregate metadata. The output is structured for easy research analysis.
- As time allows, I'm building Lavender FE - a "universal" frontend for fediverse instances. Lavender is designed to seamlessly integrate multiple accounts, regardless of the instance or backend software.
- I curate a list of DotNet-ActivityPub-Projects, which is exactly what it sounds like. My goal is to index all projects that implement ActivityPub using C# or another CLR language.
- What started as a meme is now the Expressions AS Extension, an ActivityStreams extension meant to introduce protocol-level support for non-text communication. I hope that Expressions can enable new federated communication modes that are more comfortable to neurodivergent people.
- I contribute to Letterbook, a next-generation fediverse server offering simple operation and powerful safety tools. Letterbook incorporates a unique architecture that avoids many of the classic limitations faced by fedi server projects.
- I also contribute to Sharkey, a soft-fork of Misskey offering extensive quality-of-life improvements. Sharkey is designed as a safe extension of Misskey's native feature set, providing widespread improvements with minimal risk.

Wow, #Element (the flagship #Matrix client) dropped support for #Firefox ESR in release 1.11.70. Or rather, they never supported it in the first place, only supporting "last two versions". The change causes a corrupted session for ESR users, and can't be reverted to fix it.
(Note that all Debian Stable users, by default, run Firefox ESR. This is kind of a big deal. ESR is always up to date on security, and gets new features once per year.)
They're managing the issue somewhat badly: github.com/element-hq/element-…
The best we've gotten so far, from a dev caught in the middle:
« Element devs follow the policy set out by people that manage them, they get an input but they do not control the policy. »
Nothing from their employer, whoever that is.
Make sure Element Web works with Firefox ESR · Issue #27684 · element-hq/element-web

The ICJ ruled in short, Israel is:
an Apartheid state
occupying Gaza
illegally annexing the West Bank &EJ
violating self-determination
This is illegal, so it must:
end the occupation
fully repair/compensate Palestinians, including through right of return & dismantelling settlements
on Apartheid: "Measures to accomplish separation between settlers & Palestinians CONSTITUTE BREACH OF ART. 3 of Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination"

Israel has an obligation to cease all new settlement activity, repeal all legislation creating discrimination, all measures aimed at modifying demographics of territory, provide full reparation (restitution, compensation &/or satisfaction)
Restitution: return the land, assets, cultural property. Evacuation and dismantelling of all settlers and allow return of Palestinians If the Restitution is impossible, Israel must compensate all natural or legal persons having suffered damage

Windows global IT outage: what we know so far
Outage linked to Windows operating system hits banks, airlines, rail services and supermarketsMabel Banfield-Nwachi (The Guardian)
This (mostly) isn't servers, but things like checkin kiosks, computers in hospitals, self-checkout screens, large displays that show departing flights etc.
A vast majority of those have historically been running on Windows, as they're essentially computers with a GUI, but running one specific app, and Windows GUI development and system administration is just what people had experience with. You could do Linux for sure, but desktop Linux is notoriously brittle.
New appliances like these aren't always Windows any more, some places use Android, some places use Linux, some places even do iPads, there's a much wider variety, but there's still plenty of Windows left.
In an unexpected turn of events, a sensible take on #Crowdstrike from the Orange Site.
