In 2025, Google earned $400bn in revenue. If you worked a high-paying job ($75,000/annually), it'd take you from the end of the Miocene geological period to today to earn that much (5.3m years).

hello!

Hiya! I'm Harley, I go by the handle H4RL3Y basically everywhere, welcome to my website!

You will notice immediately that this website is quite minimal, and loads pretty fucking fast! Guess what? It's just HTML and some monolithic CSS. Why? justfuckingusehtml.com sums it up pretty well.

Furthermore, I like security, and I think hardening is something we should all be doing now that agentic red-teaming (use of AI to find vulnerabilites) is becoming more and more popular. As local models continue to improve, I fear to think what a malicious actor could do with a healthy helping of VRAM and a fast GPU. Using just HTML and CSS, combined with this site's very lean webserver (details in the footer), create a very small attack surface to secure.

Have fun browsing around all my random stuff!

public services

I'm a strong proponent of running your own infrastructure, so I encourage you to do so.

However, I do understand that for some people their lives are simply too busy to maintain such services, so, while I also too lead a very busy life, I offer some of my infrastructure to the public for your usage.

Feel free to migrate to these services should you wish, for any services that have a component of data persistence (stateful services such as password managers), I STRONGLY encourage you to MAKE YOUR OWN ROUTINE BACKUPS. I do maintain these services for my own use, however I will assume that you have read this paragraph before migrating and thus have been warned and recommended to make routine backups, so I cannot accept responsibility for data loss.

I run routine backups of the entire server itself, so in the event of catastrophic data loss please contact me to notify me as there may be a chance that the data is recoverable.

I will aim for two-weeks notice before scheduled downtime or service decommissioning. I'll primarily put these notices here on this page, but if you'd like to recieve them via email too then please let me know by contacting me at the email address in the footer of this website.

The flag indicates the geographical location of the server.

Where possible, my services run on OpenBSD (denoted by [OBSD]). If it was not possible or not worthwile to do so, services will be deployed on Linux-based operating systems (denoted by [LNUX]).

All services will achieve an A+ security grade from cryptcheck.fr and will target at least 100/100 from mozilla HTTP observatory.

Service Description URL
[OBSD] SearXNG SearXNG is a metasearch engine. Users are neither tracked nor profiled. https://sx.h4rl3y.xyz 🇫🇮
[OBSD] Vaultwarden An alternative server implementation of Bitwarden written in Rust and compatible with all official Bitwarden clients. https://vw.h4rl3y.xyz 🇫🇮

If you find yourself using these services daily, please consider donating to help cover server costs, even a few £s per month can be a massive help. Your donation will be strictly used to either: maintain current server costs, or contribute to further expanded public service offerings.

webrings

I am proud to be part of the following webrings, and I encourage you to go off and explore other people's websites once you're done here!

You could also make your own website, and join the approprite webrings, that'd be cool wouldn't it?

Small security/privacy warning, these widgets do request remote resources and may have a very small amount of JavaScript in them.
