Doing some iPhone 4S forensics today, first time using checkm8 , had to get a Pi Pico because the 4S is picky about its exploits.

But lo and behold, we have ssh ramdisk.

So... Gabriel, why would you be doing iPhone forensics? I guess there must be something really valuable on that 4S?

Yeah.... about that..

It might have been just my collection of Economist podcast pun's.... also I liked this device.

My last pre-flat device so I wanted to rescue it, and some jailbreak had caused it to go into a boot-loop.

Oh no, not sure I will be able to handle this Scaleway price increase.

Stardust instances are fun. They would be "free" if you didn't need a IPv4

Clearing up my tabs I found this, it's a wild ride, but worth a read about what people will do to abuse free tiers.

So it's time again for the yearly https://noscript.it/ advertisement (because I renewed it again).

tl.dr. it's a noscript (no javascript) proxy/iframe which allows you to share js-free links with your friends

To celebrate, I had claude clean up the code and do some QoL improvements.

Save megabytes of data for free, and see 100% less ads and get 99.9% less tracking (I do use goatcounter to count the number of visitors but there is no profiling...)

Also updated the "Show me" links to include how much less crap you get when using the JS-less version.

I know the no-js train mostly sailed, but I just don't want to give up on it. Downloading and running code from someone else just to view a website is insecure, and inefficient, except if it's an actuall web app. Or actually same there but slightly less insecure than downloading code and running it on your machine as the browser sandboxes are decent nowadays.
