prolabs should be priced at the highest possible price point where the majority of consumers interested in prolabs will still purchase it, maximising profit margins for HackTheBox
we love corporations!
I mean just from having taken the CPTS, that exam and kindof environment was a ton of fun
so I know I'd like them
eh they have to keep the lights on
nah i like the lights off
I mean I would probably buy it for 2 month or so it I wanted to do some training for CPTS or smth
bro forgets everyone got bills to pay and share holders to jerk
ayo
whats the hardest part of bug bounties?
im share holders
Prolabs are not great for CPTS
finding bugs to bounty
why are they hard to find?
finding bugs that haven't already been bountied
i find bugs to CRUSH
all shareholders need to do to lose interest is read thia chat
Surviving on less that you'd make as a fry cook
Are the normal labs better suited?
they'd run
Nah, just the course itself.
CPTS track and course would be enough for both practice and understanding
outside of that and you'll end up in a rabbit hole for an OOS technique
I think once you have CPTS doing pro labs afterwards is more practical but what do I know I don’t even have CPTS?
After, sure
I think people say pro labs are good just because of similar environment sizes
to get familiar with a "larger" AD simulation
but it's just not really necessary I feel
AEN should be enough for that though
AEN feels like enough of an intro to that scale
100%
That and the AD module
yeah the skill assessments for that module are decently big
for skill assessments that is
The details in the course are the most important things to cover
peak game
hm maybe
and a walking pad
I thought it was a great game because of harley quinn 😭
The story wasn't great (everything has to be joker for sales) but the gameplay was the best in the series.
the gameplay was lots of fun
So I can't make any promises/guarantees on what that data is formatted like
Once it's available to me I'll be able to and then I can proceed with code cleanup, formatting prettiness, etc
no no - good luck 😛
thx
for me too xD
xd
hope i did all correct
I want to be a hacking programming shit head
@rancid snow make a screenshot here

Asylum or arkhamn
We were talking about Arkham Knight
What’s all on CJCA
I need to beef up my resume
How hard is that exam
“Hard”
The better one is asyulm the first one
arkham
Arkham city > *
290 more samples to scan
I gotta figure out a better process for this. I don't have the ram to support too many vms concurrently 
just take out a bank loan and get more ram
I can set up a company and position myself as an AI firm. They'll gib me gajillions
Quick question: how much do the certificates cost? Because it says they cost 490$ but the vouchers for the different exams cost less.
Does the certificates cosst 490 and the voucher is an extra price on top of that?
In HTB
The 490 is for the voucher and the related modules/learning path
The exam voucher cost alone excludes the modules/learning path
Okok, thank you
note you still must purchase and complete the path to attempt the exam
So its the total cost of the voucers and the boxes for the modules
you cannot take the exam unless you finish the path btw
every oscp training advice i hear involves practicing on htb
Are you insinuating that offsec do not know how to prepare you for their exam ?
offsex charging thousands of bucks to prepare you to fail 3x
damn man, @snow crest will not be happy
what vpn best for parrots htb linux ? stable and unlimist
you don't really need a vpn
all it does is shift trust
Damn that pfp
did it feel ezpz
Question, do you notice that python pwntools remote module is kinda slow ?
gl!
glhf
Good luck
did u make them
I want to take the oscp for the lulz and to say I finished it in 5 hours
You generally don't spend $1.7k for the lulz
And to flex I got chedda
Cheaper lulz to be had
You telling me how to live my life?
Yes
Infact im gonna take it and down a bottle of Benadryl to see what gets finished first
Me or the exam
I'm hungry
Should I get smoothie king🤔
But it is gonna be another few hours until the beef thaws out so I can cook it
Is that like Burger King?
Yes
That's not food; that's what food eats
Smoothie king is okay if you like chemicals out the wazoo
im not food >:[
Im not a rabbit
Nom nom 🫦
I was surprised to find that the gif existed
Exam yes
yeppers
first time 🥹
gonna have to practice them a few more times before my exam but i think i did pretty well
They really look good
hackthebackery wen?
You in culinary school?
no I’m 14(note the - role 😽) so i still study a broad range of subjects and I chose to do food technology out of my 2 option subjects 😼
I’m like top 10 teens of all time
14 yo?
what does it mean
Minor
For under 18s
what up?
oh......
if an u18 says they’re u18 and doesn’t have that role they get kicked
can i have a +?
Can a brother get a + up in here?
we need a role for over 40
uncs
Specifically, it means that they have parental consent form submitted
Need a consent form from your old folks home
How about an unemployed role
can a brother get --

Who’s gonna tell him
We have that one already - 'verified'
Guys I gotta figure out how to keep my potato plant alive
have you tried watering it
There was lots of rain and now she is straight up water boarded
Funny you say that
And it’s gonna clearly rain again, so I gotta figure out a solution
LMAO
eat potat
is it small enough to bring inside?
They aren’t done yet
No
blehh
It’s in a old jack Daniel’s barrel and the spot it was growing in was really really good, but we didn’t account for too much rain
Now I gotta figure out how to move this bih quick
And frequently
i mean you could get one of those cheap mini-greenhouses of like temu or amazon and move it in/out of there when it rains
Whiskey aged potatoes?
no drainage?
No space
Isn't that cheap vodka with flavoring?
It usually has natural drainage
Because of the openings in the wood
hm
But that’s just how much it’s been raining. It can’t drain fast enough or dry fast enough yet
May flowers more like may showers amirite gamers
you could drill some more holes into the sides of the barrel at the bottom
so it drains quicker
Brother these gaps is big
ohh
Or just use a straw
Mmmmmm
suck the water out
For now tipping the barrel over just enough for the plant not to fall out has worked
I’m also growing onions
And basil and tomatoes
And bell peppers
oooh
And we’re trying to do a cucumber plant
Shes being a little funky rn tho
The basils doing great btw
I think imma become and herbalist
Start making concoctions n shi
Hey Everyone
Nice to meet you all. Am attempting logging machine, i already have the user flag, but i am stuck on this root flag, i exhausted all limits on AI trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Is there a nudge on where to look? am on the msa_health path, all i need to know is am on the right path or not
Keep trying, im gonna attempt this soon i want to level up to pro-hacker now
Wasted the day… i feel like I barely got anything done (despite best efforts)
I was up before 5am and axe splitting logs by 7am.
I bet that felt good
I was up at 6 and started working at 7… stopped an hour ago
But… computers man
I vote for having an unemployed role
My work/life balance is very out of alignment right now
Deadline is tuesday… so hopefully I can calm down a bit after that
i made a fire. it was awesome until it started pouring rain and then it was still awesome for like 2 hours
it was a good fire
Deadlines are imaginary
the truth is...there is no line.
Most are
In this case there is a demo on Tuesday in front of the execs… so that demo has to work or we have to fake it… either way that deadline is fixed… I’m sure there will be several more after that
Well good luck
🙂

u ever just be in a situation thats makes u rethink ur whole life and u just find out ur dumb
i hung out with a bunch of hackers irl today and i just had that experience
why
bro wrote bash scripts to solve hard challenges in less than 10mins
he's probably been exposed to those issues thousands of times
its been like a year since i got into cyber tho 😭
have you been exposed to hard issues thousands of times after having been exposed to the easier ones that prime your knowledge basis?
if 1 year was enough the average cyber hire wouldnt be 35 years old
trueing
i wonder if HTB labs are vulnerable to this year linux LPE bugs
Shitpost less, and study more
u gotta remember those people have been doing this for 10 years at a minimum
get back into the fight troop
i finna sleep and cry for the rest of the night first
then coffee at 7am tmr and we get back
cyber is the most broad dense and deep part of CS to be genuinely good at
Systems thinking and adversarial thinking is a requirement, and I believe most people never manage to refine one of these cognitive skills let alone both in a goal oriented career
just recognize dumbness and work with care and purpose to transcend it
ez
all we can do is keep trying
i am a sponge seeped in dumb
If I can wring out a few drops of dumb every day that's less dumb for the next day
Everything is held together with duct tape and gorilla glue
And I’m the one who brought a hose
And I’m gonna keep bringing the hose
and many many cans of monster and redbull
Until it stops being made with duct tape and gorilla glue
yeah im def fascinated too
but like damn the exponential gap between i and some of the dudes i et
i will tell you how to get a job
Is that Berserk? 🤔
Please, enlighten us
go to defcon , hack every device there
hold the devices hostages till someone there give you a job
Lol
embrace the ransom groups ways
Or just win the CTF
HTB ctf?
I was offered a job at a CTF at Bsides
No, he watched me solving and owned a small security startup that does pentesting and reverse engineering…
Is there currentlly something going on with the vm's in Academy?
Asked me if I wanted to cone work for him
here come the money
maybe some pressure because its the first day of the season?
Haha… I politely declined… it was in another city and would pay less than my current job
Still would have loved to do the work…
the real question is , is that company still going
startups are uh a weird position but still if you got no job so why not at least you get experience and money
hm... I was trying to complete the "Applications of AI in infosec" module. VM doesn't seem to be connecting to the internet. Can't uploa model, ect... was wondering if there was something on my end.
True… startups are inherently risky
try to change your vpn file download a new one then connect to it
Even if I don't use the vpn, and just use the built-in vm on the site?
oh you are using the HTB attack machine?
no if you are using the attack machine i dont really know then
Yes. Tried both my own machine and the built-in Parrot vm on the site...
Did you remember to remove the french languagepack ?
Please do not speak to me in red wine script
I hate bread

did he want people to tickle his home router? 
I don't think the router consented
Stop ruining the fun
he was boring
That thing has an Intel core ultra 8 cpu
Americans just miss being called "massa" and having some "agents" to whip dont they 
fire
HTB when is the new box coming??
next week
Bruh
alot of other machines to solve till then xD
I have done them
ok ms guru rank
They just retire
ic ic
i gues the coming machine is gonna be insane difficulty
idk just guessing
i think they follow a pattern
isnt it just usually easy med hard x3 then insane
i mean last season was my first season but pretty sure thats what happened
the last box is usually insane
i think they follow a random pattern
are patterns random

random pattern is a real term
random pattern gotta be some physicist shit i bet
what i meant by "random" is like they dont follow the same pattern every season
but every season ends with an insane
Then it's just 'random'.
okay lets figure out the 11th season pattern then
probably ass
It probably is some sort of random pattern
Next box is probably easy
And then medium and hard
“Random pattern” sounds contradictory at first, but it usually means a structure that emerges from randomness rather than a strict repeating order. A pattern does not always mean predictability; it can mean statistical tendencies, distributions, or visual characteristics. For example, static noise on a TV is random at the pixel level, yet it has a recognizable pattern overall because the randomness follows certain probabilities. In other words, the individual events are unpredictable, but the system as a whole can still exhibit consistent properties.
Hmm
I still don't buy it.
yeah im not getting it either
is that random pattern'
looks cool

I can't stop listening to this!
🆗
You know what that reminds me of
The wise tree

I have heard the Yum Yum Tree
By the Ozric Tentacles
Ozric Tentacles formed during the solstice at Stonehenge Free Festival 1983 going on to become psychedelic staples at Glastonbury and other festivals. The creative vision of multi-instrumentalist Ed Wynne, the Ozrics’ uniquely trippy soundscapes connect fans of progressive rock, psychedelia and dance music culture.
Band Members:
Ed Wynne - gu...
is the wise tree thing big ass tree u kill in the beginning of ocarina of time
Yes
Speaking of music I love the berserk osts
I listen to them while studying
HackTheBox
the ost makes me cry
vigorthebox
Think outside of the box
Hiya Kami!
are u leaving thm yet brother
My sub is good till July
yes, well im using what i paid for, ill get to htb soon enough
did u do annual or somethin
rip

we want u here

also new season started last sat
i listened in on the cube talk, it was pretty cool
I'll get there haha
I will probably do some HackSamrter and Portswigger first though
Try GNS3 if you can get an IOS image
or eve-ng
skull all you want.. it got me a CCNP
You are welcome
What’s ur rank on thm?
Time to switch to htb
Soon. I have a careeer as a network engineer, no need to rush

Once my foundation is super solid, i will do HTB and get my money worth
U still drinking coffee 
Decaf
vigor is legit i can vouch even tho he a white name
I also felt the aura
hi vigor. speaking of thm
I havent done it in awhile since studying HTB a bit more. Anything THM offers that HTB doesn't? Just different boxes, I guess?
Hi Annovative
From my experience THM starts off at a basic level and does a good job explaining things. The CTFs are doable and less challenging from what I'm told than they are here.
I aim to get a good grasp of what i can from THM, then hacksmarter and portswigger and then I'll try some stuff here once I have a solid foundation
I haven't tried anything here personally though so I can only say what I have heard
Been a long time since I compared the two, but I found that HTB had a wider spectrum of content and overall the level of difficulty is wider… you can start with HTB and get into some very advanced techniques to solve hard or insane boxes, plus the labs are very immersive
I know someone with access… now I have to charm them into sharing
Laying on the bed
Context of my actual position
yeah i grabbed that screenshot from ur webcam /s
Thank you
That’s from my members only stream
It's too bad I couldn't get into a better position
can i be a member
But just one, and y’all gotta share it
C’mon I’ll buy you all a drink to celebrate! What the hell I’ll buy EACH of you a drink
Fans only u mean?
😉
I really love u hackthebox
@torpid patrol @latent oak thanks for the insight
no problem

Now time for hint
tbf my 2nd message to him was never take anything i say serious

Can you guys now provide me hint from reactor machine
no
Why
bc im gonna go to sleep
🫃
So any one else
This isn't the channel to ask
i don’t know nothing about no machines sorry
same
I haven’t done it yet
whats a machine
So I couldn’t even help if I wanted to
But they said yesterday we will provide after 12 am and in that channel
That's the channel to ask for help, not here.
brainstorm bud , dependent on hints from other people makes no sense
Just a mistake when typing that name now I will change it
when hints arrive then u can see 
oh okay
where is the elf with the no hints sign
Also a hint will only help if you know how the hint is applicable

love that one
That's it I need for that purpose
sedly HTB has external Stickers set off , otherwise could have sent a bigger one lol
Ok I will wait for that
sounds good
like owlsec. boooo
hacksmarter allows

i can’t always make them but i will try more
cube talks are during my work 🙁
yay
what are they, i thought it was just htb updates
me too. have flex

they answer questions and talk about cyber stuff
yeah you should. say you are on a conference call
if they say who is on it say “not you”
hell yeah
i feel like Mr Robot , i got the user flag that people got in 3 minutes in 5 hours just because i saw the easiest solution and went like "nuh that couldnt be it" ignoring it and trying alot of things
isnt that THM christmas event elf ?
How you done it and which kind of experience was that
yes
uh we cant really give hints before the 24 hours on the machine
what was her name again lol
Now 33 hours and 39 minutes after machine was posted
McSkidy i think i dont remember
oh sure i can give you a hint in dms
Yeah sure
ok lol now i know why they picked the name skdi
