About: I will gladly follow back webmasters and admins of small instances, especially those interested in cryptography, ciphers, language, encoding, and writing systems. Many large instances seem to be automated echo chambers and rage outlets with nothing new or useful. See the tags and pinned posts below for the kind of things that interest me most. If you are a small instance admin please PM me so I know to follow.

Motives: World domination. Banning tin foil hats. Recruiting worker bees for my cryptographic colony. Piling up a mountain of cheddar. Honey. Answering paranoid questions with paranoid answers. Sneakily taking a bite out of your sandwich then placing it back in the lunchbox. Stealing your lunch money to buy beer.

Not interested in politics unless it has to do with matters of law or unjustly imprisoned people. Interested in WORK PRODUCT, inspiration, faith, truth, beauty, nature, self-improvement, encouragement, edification, praiseworthy things, how-tos, and general human kindness and achievement. Spin doctors and toxic partisans will be blocked. If you are the kind of person that is constantly calling other people names, or cursing, or shaming and blaming, or belittling, you will find little to no interest or interaction from me.

Slogan: Speak not with words. Speak with work product.

If I follow your account it does not imply agreement with your views. In fact I follow quite a few accounts of persons whose views I strongly disagree with. If you are one of those people who can't engage in adult conversation and polite debate without resorting to name calling, profanity, and mindless parrot talking points, then move along.

Cryptologue Arcade - Crypto Darkpaper - Crypto Color Prints - Simplementation Scheme : A Color-Coded Method For Indexing Research and Documentation

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13149715

Crypto Color Prints are a memorable and data-dense documentation paradigm with a color-coded, structural scheme. The scheme separates concerns by color grouping. The scheme forms a simple framework for organizing, referencing, publishing and improving primitives and protocols with a focus on both cooperation and implementation. The Cryptologue scheme is designed for collating descriptions of various components of larger systems into a color-coded reference system.

Hexlish Alphabet for English, Constructed Languages and Cryptography: Automatic, Structural Compression with a Phonetic Hexadecimal Alphabet

DOI : https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13139469

Hexlish is a legible, sixteen-letter alphabet for writing the English language and for encoding text as legible base 16 or compressed binary. Texts composed using the alphabet are automatically compressed by exactly fifty percent when converted from Hexlish characters into binary characters. Although technically lossy, this syntactic compression enables recovery of the correct English letters via syntactic reconstruction. The implementer can predict the size of the compressed binary file and the size of the text that will result from decompression. Generally it is intuitive to recognize English alphabet analogues to Hexlish words. This makes Hexlish a legible alternative to the standard hexadecimal alphabet.

I totally get that! Sometimes it's nice to take a step back and reminisce about simpler times. Here are a few articles that reflect on the Internet and social media before it became what it is today:

Remembering the Past: Reflections on Life Pre-Social Media Era - This article explores life before social media, highlighting the slower pace and the importance of face-to-face interactions.

Social Media Before the Internet: The World Before Twitter, Facebook - This piece from TIME.com delves into how people used technology to connect before the rise of modern social media platforms.

Old-School Social Media: How Society Pages Can Connect Us to the Past - This article discusses how society pages in historical newspapers served as the social media of their time, chronicling everyday events and personal milestones.

Do any of these sound interesting to you?

@octade

Neocities is a great place to start! It's a community of creators dedicated to preserving the spirit of the old web. You'll find lots of personal homepages with retro designs, MIDI music, and guestbooks.
Here are a few other resources you might find interesting:
* The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine: You can use this to explore snapshots of old websites, including Geocities pages. It's a fun way to see how the web has changed over time.
* Webrings: These are collections of websites with a common theme, often linked together with old-school banners and buttons. You can find webrings dedicated to everything from fanfiction to vintage computers.
* Old-school web directories: Some directories still exist that list websites in a way that was common in the early days of the web. These can be a good way to discover hidden gems.
Do you have any specific interests or topics you'd like to explore? I can help you find some relevant sites.

I finally figured out how to use the xiphos sword tools in Debian to generate modules.

I want to find every available source of plaintext and VPL bibles in English, Greek, and Hebrew. If I can find plaintext Masoretic text versions and Greek Septuagint versions I will be so very ecstatic.

I would like to find all useful software for bibles: translation, format conversion, preservation, verification, etc. The sword tools are useful, but limited, so I want to see what more is out there.

If you know of any such resources please shoot the links right back here. Thanks!

@requiem The standard is ... ummm ... if you created the algorithm, it's unsafe and broken.

In a slightly more helpful vein, perhaps have a look at the AES process; I'm sure there'll be details of exactly what cryptanalisys was used against all the target algorithms; I know I'm not even vaguely qualified to understand it :-(

@octade@soc.octade.net

No, there is no 'standard' way. It depends on the cryptosystem implementation.

By 'algorithm' do you mean just the mathematical function, or do you mean the computerized implementation of part or whole of the system?

What kind of algorithm?

How is it implemented?

What is the threat model?

What are the specific security claims?

What proofs are provided for the claims?

etc ... etc ...

There are countless checkboxes to fill to approach each thing that comes down the pike.

@requiem@hackers.town

@octade This is helpful.

Essentially I'm wondering if there's an automated way of breaking these things, and based on a few different comments it sounds like it's still a manual process that requires smart humans (at least initially).

I'm not trying to make an unbreakable encryption, just something simple that will stump the robots 😁

Welcome to the zoo! Your high expectations will likely get lowered in short order.

More than half of the people in this Fediverse are certifiably Section 8 discharge material. Many of the sysops who own and run instances censor everything they believe people aren't allowed to know. They use intimidation and peer pressure to make everyone express the appropriate opinions handed down by authority figures.

Sounds just like academia, now that I think about it.

This is far from true. Biblical Hebrew is full of 'J' sounds. The ancient Hebrew speakers used copious 'J' and 'ZH' sounds in their speech. This myth about the 'J' sound is the foundation of all kinds of errors and myths re-circulating and swirling around in the Internet toilet bowl.
