ikwyl6 vim cheat sheet

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/09/28

Not using vim much, so every time I need it for more complex things than basic editing or leaving any vi based text editor (hello <Esc> :q!), I need a FAQ or cheat sheet.

I like this one the most as it has merged most if not all other cheat sheets in it: [Wayback/Archive] ikwyl6 vim cheat sheet.

The above page is the [Wayback/Archive] CDN for your source code | raw.githack.com hosted version of the HTML page in the repository [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – ikwyl6/vim-cheat-sheet-html: Collaboration of vim cheat sheets I’ve found and put them in a html file.

That means you can contribute to it with more vim features in case they become available.

By intent, the cheat sheet looks like [Wayback/Archive] Vim Cheat Sheet – vim.rtorr.com, but it omits the tips bits like:

This could help debugging issues with Cloudflare hosted sites: /cdn-cgi/ endpoint · Cloudflare Fundamentals docs

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/08/24

If I ever run into a Cloudflare hosted site, I should try fiddling with the site-specific /cdn-cgi/ endpoint that Cloudflare automagically adds: [Wayback/Archive] /cdn-cgi/ endpoint · Cloudflare Fundamentals docs

Via [Wayback/Archive] Dr. Christopher Kunz: “I didn’t know this and it migh…” – chaos.social

I didn’t know this and it might really be handy with debugging weird Cloudflare issues (like pages not loading): Cloudflare adds an URL endpoint to each domain that they host, /cdn-cgi. It has, amongst others, the /cdn-cgi/trace endpoint that shows which data center services your request. More docs here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/fund

The/cdn-cgi/trace endpoint is documented at [Wayback/Archive] Gathering information for troubleshooting sites · Cloudflare Support docs

Increasing your web archiving impact: Guide to Setting Up Your 2nd (and more) ArchiveTeam Warrior in VirtualBox (Windows, MacOS, Linux…) or docker

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/08/03

With both the ever increasing amount of internet data, and ever increasing number of web sites pulling the plug, archiving them into the Internet Archive is ever more important.

The thread at [Wayback/Archive] Double Your Archiving Impact: Guide to Setting Up Your 2nd ArchiveTeam Warrior in VirtualBox (Windows) : Archiveteam has great tips on running ArchiveTeam Warrior instances, even running more than one on a machine.

It covers:

  • Running in VirtualBox
  • Running in docker

A third option is to run on ESXi which I have covered the ESXi quite a few times on my blog already. You can find the main post at Running ArchiveTeam Warrior version 3.2 on ESXi, and all posts at wiert.me/category/ArchiveTeamWarrior.

Common Conditional Access Misconfigurations and Bypasses in Azure – TrustedSec

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/07/02

For my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] Common Conditional Access Misconfigurations and Bypasses in Azure – TrustedSec

Via [Wayback/Archive] Stephan Berger on Twitter: “”Blocking Linux operating systems used to not be available in Conditional Access. It’s worth a review however because there have been times when I have gained unintended access simply by using a Linux operating system such as Ubuntu to log in.” [1] Yep, a customer told me… “

[FRnOG] [TECH] cogent rennes: “Due to unprecedented and historically high temperatures in the region, it has become impossible to maintain the environmental conditions required for the safe operation of equipment hosted at the facility.”

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/06/23

It’s a short term weather side-effect for which data centers are under dimensioned because data centers don’t have long term planning, right?

Narrator: it’s the climate changing way faster than anyone designing data centers anticipated.

Wisp.place Documentation | Wisp.place Docs

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/03/17

During a Cloudflare outage¹, I learned about [Wayback/Archive] Wisp.place Documentation | Wisp.place Docs

Decentralized static site hosting on the AT Protocol.

Wisp.place enables you to host static websites directly in your AT Protocol repository. Your Personal Data Server (PDS) holds the cryptographically signed manifest and files as the authoritative source of truth, while hosting services index and serve them with CDN-like performance.

This is the documentation of [Wayback/A] wisp.place by [Wayback/Archive] Ana (@nekomimi.pet) — Bluesky.

GitHub – valyentdev/valyent: A developers-first cloud platform.

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/01/20

In my list of tools to try out: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – valyentdev/valyent: A developers-first cloud platform.

I will likely start with the cloud version, but the local version looks promising too.

More links:

Via: [Wayback/Archive] Valyent.cloud: “📢 Valyent.cloud is getting fully open-source, and its UI dashboard is getting more features day after day. It allows developers to deploy Docker images at scale — made fast-booting and secure microVMs, taking inspiration from Fly.io.” — Bluesky

It died, but longer ladders will be there: 12ft – Wikipedia

Posted by jpluimers on 2025/12/31

From 12ft – Wikipedia:

On July 17, 2025, the News Media Alliance reported that it had taken down the website.

It’s impossible to enjoy the content of online media by paying (for instance because payment systems are not compatible, but also because those media often have region blocks), so this is to longer ladders (and understanding how ladders work):
