As I procrastinated finals, decided to write about macOS’s System Integrity Protection and clear up some misconceptions with this setting:
https://khronokernel.github.io/macos/2022/12/09/SIP.html

Was fun writing some Python from scratch (needed to for OpenCore Legacy Patcher anyways), even got to mess around with PyPI and publish my first package for py_sip_xnu:
https://github.com/khronokernel/py_sip_xnu
https://pypi.org/project/py-sip-xnu

Stupid trick: If you have a vanity domain, you can do

$ mkdir .well-known
$ curl 'https://mastodon.instance/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:[email protected]' > .well-known/webfinger`

... that is, just blindly copy your metadata file, looks like this:

https://infosec.exchange/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:[email protected]

and serve it. Anyone who searches for @[email protected] will be directed to your account.

Here's one of the many beautiful things about Mastodon and the Fediverse:

I saw that @johnvoorhees opened a Pixelfed profile. That service is powered by federation too. So here's what I did:

- Took his profile URL: https://pixelfed.social/johnvoorhees
- Changed it to: @[email protected]
- Searched for the account, and followed him.

Now John's photo feed is another account, from a completely different service, that I follow on my Mastodon. I love this.

Ever wished it was easier to view posts or profiles from another Mastodon instance on *your* instance, without any manual copy & paste?

I made Masto-Redirect, a shortcut that can redirect both account pages and individual posts to your own Mastodon instance.

Takes 1 minute to set up, can run on all Apple platforms. Free to download. Hope you'll find this useful: https://www.macstories.net/ios/masto-redirect-a-mastodon-shortcut-to-redirect-profiles-and-posts-to-your-own-instance/

I've seen a few folks join Mastodon and complain that it's too difficult to follow people on other servers, with the cutting and pasting and whatnot. But @bramus has now created a neat Chrome extension (or bookmarklet, if you prefer to go that route) that let's you avoid all that hassle.

I just tested it out... by following @bramus with it!
