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 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.

Goldilocker is a brain wallet application for generating ED448 encryption and signing keys via OpenSSL.
Encryption keys may be stored offline as a complex passphrase or a seed phrase generated from the BIP39 word list.
https://codeberg.org/OCTADE/keystrike
KEYSTRIKE generates very, very random seeds that are truly random.
KEYSTRIKE uses /dev/urandom and several TRNG mixing techniques:
keystroke timestamps, doubling and shuffling, modulus and size
truncating.
The final output is a whitened, true random and pseudo-random mix.
https://codeberg.org/OCTADE/megarand
MEGARAND employs extreme overkill in the genration of a very large entropy pool. The output is extremely random as a result of several hashing, timestamping, shuffling, encrypting, and truncation techniques. MEGARAND is useful for generating large seed bases for key and passphrase material or for feeding to cryptographically secure PRNG software if high-speed outputs are required.

All the current news is a downer so I want to reflect. Do you have a website or any old articles of old era stuff from back when the Internet was cool, such as before the rise of social media networks?
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?

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 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!

@octade I have the hardcopy of the Brenton edition of the Septuagint. If you fail elsewhere, I can probably start OCR-ing it, one book at a time, VERY slowly.
@octade Other Greek text sources:
Gospels, broken up into pericopes according to Orthodox usage: https://glt.goarch.org/misc/Evangelion.html
Epistles, broken up into pericopes according to Orthodox usage: https://glt.goarch.org/misc/Apostelos.html
Is there a “standard” way to test the hack resistance of an encryption algorithm?
@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 :-(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard_process
@yojimbo I'd argue that all are unsafe (well except for one).
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.
@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 😁
Does any brother or sister have a spirit-raising testimony?
@DMakarios A rare specimen of the newly dicovered species catfoxrabbits, a cafora.

It looks like a fox to me!
@DMakarios Cat, tigger variety
@DMakarios The orange makes me think fox, but the brown ear stops me being confident in answering fox.

@DMakarios Looks like a tabby cat to me
@DMakarios @wendinoakland Tiger, Cat, Dog. Tigatog.
How interesting!
8 votes for cat
7 for fox
6 for tigers in some form
5 for cute/snuggly/fren etc.
Other suggestions include tigercatdog, catfoxrabbit, and a dog with a secret identity as a cat.
The pattern is labelled cat, but as I did not follow it very faithfully I will refrain from attributing it. The pattern illustrations do look like a cat, I assure you.
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.
Anyway, welcome to hell. Fire extinguishers cost $100 and I'm the only supplier.
Y'all, some of the ways you phrase your politics makes it extremely difficult to filter.
I'm trying to do my best here, but some of y'all are making it impossible. I'm begging you to use real names or CW because I don't want to police or mute/block people but it's getting real hard to cover all my bases.
Selah, selah, amen, amen. Ye aggressive politico propagandists: please hashtag your bleeding heart social savior and braveheart messianic army accusatory and defamatory mind rot. The enemy is YOU, not THEM. Y'all are driving me crazy with your endless war for endless peace.

The Year of the Snake, you say?
The pastor's name is 'Baptiste Bin Laden.' He is also known as the 'Marlboro Imam'.
[quote] "You're right there is no 'J' in ancient Hebrew as the name often translated Westernized as 'Jesus' is derived from 'Yeshua' in Hebrew or 'Iesous' in Greek. "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.
See links below that disprove this myth about the 'J' sound and the false, Roman name, 'Yahweh'.

Good morning, it's Wednesday. I have my coffee, my cats are racing around like they just did a few lines, and I have a small rant brewing. Well, not so much a rant as a reflection.
It's on unsubscribing - to pretty much everything.

OMNISCIENCE DEFICIT DISORDER ...
Most westerners are afflicted by it at some time in their lives.
"... desert brigand chieftain Mulai Ahmed er Raisuli who kidnaps an American widow, Eden Pedecaris (Candice Bergen) in a bid to embarrass the Sultan of Morocco. In doing so, he arouses the ire and interest of an internationally ambitious Commander in Chief, Theodore Roosevelt (Brian Keith)."
Modern cinema is mostly special effects or asocial garbage. The Wind and the Lion is an example of how movies should be made. Don't look up spoilers or you will regret it.
