If you want something done, do it yourself!
as a different sort of spare time project, i've dusted off some of my old piano books and fired up the keyboard and i'm learning a few pieces.

currently i'm working on "The Rosary" by Ethelbert Nevin which is a really beautiful song and i'm pretty good at it, "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin which everyone knows and is pretty fun, and "Gopak" by Mussorgsky which is a nightmarish mishmash of weird chords and accidentals but a very interesting bit of music

i will make a proper thread for this tomorrow and see if i can find more features to add that arent already in salr, just now it has the novelty feature of being able to tweet out your own posts + vine integration, there is lots to fix, but its going good

I wrote a steganography thing for Twitter tonight by using unicode homoglyphs

http://holloway.co.nz/steg/

it uses a 6-bit charset and each glyph can hold a different number of bits so it's quite efficiently packed (i think)

yeah that seems to be the main problem. filters that just discard characters, and each site has its own filter.

18 (well there are a few more in the spec but that's all this uses).

there's no reason why it couldn't hide files in an email too (if the text was sufficiently long) so i might do that next. i'm going to be emailing the works of shakespeare (aka dick pics) to a lot of people.

with email couldn't you just stick the uuencoded file in a non-standard header?

sure, there are many ways of hiding messages

the idea of text steganography is that non-techies might just think that it's a weird font

if you find approximately where the text corruption is and insert spaces there you can realign the 6bit boundaries, and recover the rest of the message

only issue I've had with aliexpress is getting the wrong size of something that asked you to manually specify a size in the comments, which they obviously didn't read
seller did not respond to the aliexpress "dispute centre" form
after 2 weeks I contacted my CC company and got a refund
