Hello cats

People here usually don't speak English at all
(legacy reasons)
So they don't read much docs
They just ask gpt to do it until it can't
Then they ask me to fix it

Saying this while eating chicken ๐
chicchken briyannick
POV: fakechips in botnetbuddies
need to locc in see ya gang

The only time i felt sad eating chicken was when I went to my grandma's place
She yoinked one of them and cooked it for me
she scarified so you can be fed
The chicken will haunt you
Eh that's actually nice
Nice
That means I'll never be alone
Me and ....
You on stick? Impaled through there?
๐
I meant the eating part only
Weird kink
I shall not judge

Eh i thought they barely eat anything
I remember my friend used to give him only a fist full of meat for a meal
And that felt soo less, and he said that's enough for 1 meal
Maybe like 250gm?
Or lil less
It's a dog
Did you not play the new season?
sweet rabbit
Why your rank hasn't updated
It is?

It shows holo
Yeah when u do all - 1 machine, you get holo
You can be beta player and play full season on day 1
So you didn't play
18? Why 18 specifically

A girl once asked me if I want cookies, she'll bake them for me she said
I asked chicken cookies
Never got it
Girls ask?
lol

Fake promises
Have yet to recieve
I will cook you
My colleague's mom makes best cookies
Nah
Yes
Got no time to watch you crying
And i don't think machine from 2020 or so would be interesting
People say at that time the hard machines are like today's essy
Yes they aren't, using msfconsole is the go
Deep fried
Meh i don't wanna try 4 command just to setup a listener
Just wait until you meet pivoting
I did
I spent literally months on bof
I still cannot figure it out
I stared at it until it clicked
Watch the live overflow
It has like 16 videos in playlist
It is good
Alr time to work, I am just sleeping so long right now
I studied assembly in college
So i can understand a bit
Got book too
In my library
Have yet to read ๐
See
What's this
Nightmare
I've done 0 of them ๐
It's a insane machine
From when machine links relevant topic module
?
You said this and sent above pic
So i assumed machine gives relevant topics required for machine
Yea
But it might be spoiling abit
Don't wake up
Check job market --> See defensive role --> it needs OSCP
I do not like the fact that when a recruiter opens my (or anyone else's) hackthebox profile, the recruiter cannot do so on a smart phone.
if you are somebody who sees this discord entry and can change this, please do something about it.
not a big thing, not the end of the world, but it would be very cool.
thank you
And 20 years of experience for a junior position ? Sounds good
Yeah u can do it on phone
U just press the name of the person or their icon
drink water ๐ผ stay hydrated
oh not the discord profile, but the hackthebox profile where one could see the user's statistics
yo any htb staff here?
Thats why u make videos then recruiters can just watch a video
modified my entry
contact support
yea thats a good idea
I just realized to turn a coffee into a late you just add milk ๐

Well thats why he is a Praying mantis cause hes praying for more experience
You can change to website mode on your phone and view, it's just not as seamless
ok it worked. thank you
gl. It's an easy assessment. :)
Best of luck ๐
U got this
Thanks Rem
I do defensive shit on the side
Don't update to the kernel level
If i dont have a lot of time what defensive stuff do you recommend as a staple to do
Do some log analysis
Good shit Vader! You better practice every day to get the best results

just doing the lords work
bans the pyromaniac
to the gulag
chat what are some good conversation points to chat with strangers
i feel like i need to up my small talk game
ask them what they think on electric cars
i doubt most people know much about electric cars tho
other than the fact that the're electric
Dont plan it, it kills the excitement, just be spontaneous and then wing it successfully
The key to talking to others is loneliness. If you are hacking all day for weeks, the first contact you have with others will be extremely enjoyable
yet
bro said be more lonely, it'll up ur social skills
actually i dont have childhood heroes
So we are accepting social skills tips from internet nerds now?
yes
That's a level up
who's ur childhood hero mr petals
Oh man, best of luck!!!!
service jobs sound like hell
Buddha Goutama and Luke Skywalker
I had my first ever interview on Monday for Cybersecurity Engineer role
No that serves no purpose
why not mr petals
Iโm so pumped
People alive are either boring or exciting, but the exciting ones are provisional as fuck
Like this opportunity is gonna be so good
Perfect, we had a really great and interesting conversation. I think there are high chances to get to 2nd round
who is your hero mr usama
MrGolam is here!
hello mr petals
you buddy usama
do we kiss now
should we?
if you want to ๐ฅบ

Yeah
sorry there's no turning back here
once our love has deepened to the soul

That's clearly not a cat
It's a cat sapiens sapiens

Cactus?!
It makes sense, it does look like a cactus
when you getting married buddy ghulam
after uni it seems
probably should have some land by then
or i could scrap the land idea and go abroad for masters
and never come back
what year are you in buddy
im confidential too buddy
you are?
but you just kissed me
You guys use cat ?
in 2025?
I just go with:
lines=$(wc -l < "$1"); head -n $((lines/2)) "$1"; tail -n $((lines - lines/2)) "$1"
i use bat actually
way simpler
have u used bat?
Yes
why dont u use that instead of this
It was a parody, a meme, a joke
but where funny?
mr petals wont ever do that
But hey golam, have you ever tried broot ?
nope

what does that do
a bat fan will like broot

Dir navegation on steroids
sounds nice should check out
In fat I don't even have the letter 'C' in my keyboard anymore
To write this I had to borrow a keyboard from a friend
how do you ctrl +c?
does that stop running things
Depends on the signal being sent
International coffe day
and how it's interpreted by the receiver
Really?
so you modified ctrl d to send the ctrl c signal
Enjoy it fellow it personel
time to take a redbull
No I have a system-wide signal interceptor
thats peak

a monster?.....
Try Ginseng tea and you will never go back
Ginseng Tea + Taurine
Is a nice cup of warm coffee off the table!?
๐
redbull is fucking disgusting
Totally
Coffee haters present...
I am not a coffee hater
It's just that there are so many alternatives that taste good too
Life is too short
Man its been ages since i had like a new monster
I can list atleast 22 (legal) alternatives
Have they released anything good?
twin stop yapping
coffee day ๐

Riced Windows
why tho
He is being held at gun point
sadge
need to use some windows only things
very sadge
VM?
Ap4sh if you need help send me a hand written letter by pterodactyl
im lazy
Just gotta download iso and install hypervisor lol
im on dualboot widows arch sooo its faster to switch and i already have all installed
Dualboot is awesome if you have the space
Oh you use arch btw
hey does anyone know a good youtube chanel about reel pentesting scenario oriented AD ?
ok then fine
yes bro just you
ippsec
void and nix were supposed to replace arch
How can you replace something that is fundamental to the existence of the universe?
Truest words ever
Void were supposed to do what?
lmao
yes
biggest failure on written recorded history
well lets just say most people said it would
ofc the official site wont say it out loud
its basically like arch tho but diff init system and package manager
And no AUR
Than'ks, i'm looking is youtube channel, he made most of time htb boxes
AUR is the greatest thing in the world
I have a challenge for you golam
whats that
Do 1 pushup every single time you think of the word 'arch'
ok
actually have plans to get jacked
And its finnaly spooktober
but only if this stupid uni had a normal schedule
You dont have a ~3hr break inbetween?
Whattt you have like 5+ hours each day stacked?
thing is most student dont like uni and a break time means they would have to stay there longer
Working out is amazing tho, you hit a simple cardio run and you feel refreshed + 10x better
I used to do it after uni
To take my mind off cs
You have a local gym?
ye
1 oct 2025 if you dont hit 100kg bench in exactly one year im deleting my htb acc
but its supposed to be 2026
100kg bench press in 1 year
thats the idea
Doable
Golam
azomax
If its your first time taking lifting seriously
You will have a major body recomposition
I a year with beginner gains if u train properly youโll hit like 70% of ur maximum potential
Jacked in one year is perfectly doable, 100kg bench press is less so. You would need to be perfectly consistent with protein intake
This guy knows it
i am gonna be broke
lmao yeah
If ur above 180lbs, 100kg bench press is absolutely doable in a year
why do protein gotta cost this much
Are u not from india
for non muricans this is 82kg
no man
Isnt chicken briyannick like 1โฌ there
that is yes
I can bench 80kg and I am satisfied
how much do you weight
Ye sry im on the toilet and didnt feel like looking it up
69kg
fr?
fr lol
For reps or for 1?
Nice petals that dope
I prefer low reps
You do str training then?
But I am on a calisthenic phase now
5x5? Compound core ?
I don't see a gym it's been 5 months now, home workout only
How tall are you. U must be slim af
Finnaly some tunes
Dont skip legs
lmao
Atg squats goated
The secret for calories is tapioca
bro is flexible
Lmaoo
ok bro but keep some things personl ๐ฉ
See you guys tomorrow
Dont they say a good standard is 1x your bodyweight for bench, 1.5x bodyweight for squat, 2x for deadlift
Why djd u delete hahah
he wants only few people to know
Elite is 1.5x, 2x, 3x
So i mean that sounds about right for general health
Yeah obviously more is better
Still chasing a 600lbs deadlift
If you can do 1x, 1.5x, 2x and run 10km youre probably doing pretty well in life
What if i cant run
10km LMAO
Too low?
That's a quarter marathon
Yes, thats still visible
wait so whats like elite level running
There are "couch to 5km" programs you can do in like 2-3 months
around 30 ish right?
40km atleast is elite
i see
emphasis on ATLEAST
it must take 2-3 hours

Yeah it totally does
so 1.5x, 2x, 3x for bench squat deadlift and atleast 40 kilo takes you there
thats if u run 40 on first day
u gradually increase
first day at the gym they probs give you the influencers weights
Those woman section ones that are colored hahah
2kg weight pink color
@rugged dune take notes please
๐ฑ
how do u know its 5 mins 
Cat pooped on the spot where i do rope jumping
yes but how do u know its 5 mins lol cause time isnt shown
Should i post it
felinus catus
no they are clean but doesnt mean they dont shit
I do 4 day full body circuit 2 day calisthenics
I think I wanna get back into running again, but idk
I wanna get intro stretching but man is the feeling annoying
That KB wo gets me fucking shredded though
I love stretching. Once you can touch your toes even a little IMO thatโs when it feels the best
Surprising to learn not everyone can touch their toes
Fr, dudes will spend 12 hours staring at a computer but canโt spend 1 hour to better themselves each day

but what about the green flags
They will still look green
thats cool to know
need more coffee. i feel silly now
happens to best of us
redbull
cossiant ?
croissant*
ahhhhhhhhhh
these thingies
๐ฅ
wellllll idkkkit really depends how they're made, some croissants are gross and some are perfect all buttery and everything
@patent elbow
i don't eat them often but when i do i make sure to pick the right bakeries
nah a croissant's a croissant, fuck people who stuff it with chocolate or ham or whatever
non european moment
whats spicy in europe
some people (like serial killers) do stuff like that and put chorizo and all kinds of crap in croissants, it's a nightmare for me
I am gonna pass out
Sadly this is common practice in Portugual
๐
๐ญ
Spicy food
that looks like a fat shrimp
whats spicy food in europe
There is no spicy food in europe
shrimps are cool tho
Food with spice in em
this cant be true
Spiciness is a property that only happens below the equator golam
State secret
Above the equation spiciness is rare, except for Mexico
the more you know
maybe its not all bad that i was born below the equator
atleast i get spicy food
We have peppers
Paprika
Chorizo
not bad then
i have always wondered whats the avg food in every country looks like
where i live its mostly rice
You would be a great mathematician
and i dont like rice
avg food
Rice is delicious
maybe so
Rice on its own is meh
Basmati rice isn't
Gotta have something with it like some shahi korma or a burrito bowl
Thatโs my slime
rice is good
Rice between croissant?
on my htb it showing 60% towared hacker rank and it still same before i solved 3-4 machine . 
They need to be active machines

๐ก
And it usually takes 24 hours
oohhhhhhhhhhhhh
when a active machine retired ?
thats like the most premium version of rice lol
when a active machine retired ?
@odd knoll
Yes
It doesn't count towards your rank but if you achieve a rank you keep it
Other rice bad
they selling it so much basmati basmati everywhere
๐ก
which one is real ?
rice is actually insane, you can do so much with it, it goes with everything, any sauce, any dish
sometimes i wonder if i like pasta or rice more
I can eat only those two types of food for the rest of my life
yeah same
Another reason to work towards getting hacker rank ๐คฃ
Lots of redbull 
This would be one of these lifetime achievements IMO
This is a really good question
But there is not single answer it depends, listen more than you talk would be my advice. Ask about why people like what they like so you can gather knowledge
I like therefore i do
God i failed my job standards test because i couldn't scale a fence
My feet kept slipping on the fence
aww shiet
I think its because my shoes are worn out
will they let you retry?
Yeah i think they will let me retry
why wouldn't they give you standard issue equipment to even tryout for it?
seems like they would
But before i do i have to attend tutoring ๐
๐ฉ
I dont know....it was just my shoes i couldn't keep a grip on the fence
seems they would give you shoes
They put a weighted vest on you too but that wasnt a problem at all
standard issue shoes, the same shoes you'd be doing police work in
that makes the most sense

? isnt the company supposed to provide you with relevant gear to finish the task
shoes included
I was like oh this is 18 pounds?
Its police not a company
Police is a company
argument is still the same
Nah they dont give us shoes
We just attend
aha
This is like the cpts all over again only worse because i have to travel 30 miles
Yeah im gonna try scaling fences on my own or practice
I havent done that kinda stuff since i was a kid
Goood AM
Fuck yeah popcorn chicken time
i'll ask buddha to be the judge
He will probably tell you to stop talking and go meditate more
Reframe it
"Another day.. another progress email."
let me practice more, thank you for the extra free time
every stone you turn for gold is still progress
next day you have to turn less stones
That's what she said
every rejection is one step closer to an offer
I am in a issue
but thats assuming you actually get an offer if you dont get one then everything would go in vain
thats why dont stop until you get one
Related to nibbleblog
can someone help me?
the metasploit works in htb attackbox but not on my blackarch system
I'm going to kick all your stones

well if its not a network issue its probably blackarch related issue
Just have to keep on swimming
I am in the penetration tester path
ye but move to specific channel
-> #modules
this is off topic
ok
I am nearly at my 4 year mark with the job I hold. I think if I can manage to pay for like one cert it should really help my cause
but this is off topic
Damn it's already working
Petition to make everyone mods for a week as a social experiment
People will be so confused
Petition to remove general
Start voting y'all
Is it?
Petition to remove @lilac cipher
Petition to remove
no, but unless you start thinking that way, you're going to break down
get feedback from others about your resume
I think it's really harsh to go through a lot of rejection or force yourself through it
This one guy said he approached 1000 women and noted down all the rejections....he never got accepted.
That kind of stuff can damage the mind make you think things that aren't true
wrong type of rejection. lol
It's the same with jobs is what i mean
Not sure how asking the ladies out relates to applying for a job. Unless you're bad at asking ladies out and are applying to jobs with the same mentality.
If you apply to 1000 jobs and nobody accepts you, you begin to think things that aren't true
I would think your process is bad and you didn't try adjusting it along the way.
Or even worse you start internalizing that the rejection is a reflection of your skills and so on.
if you apply to 1000 jobs and nobody accepts you, then it's very likely that you are either applying to the wrong positions or your resume/interview skills aren't up to snuff
Yeah, I think around 100 rejections I'd start to reevaluate my resume or skillset
If you arent getting interviews then you know your resume sucks, if you are getting interviews but no offers you know your interviewing sucks
if you give an infinite number of immortal monkeys a typewriter each
If you give a @scenic maple a cookie
what's the recipe
Iโm no where near that luckily. The job I just was aiming for had me as โEligible for further considerationโ so at least I know my resume isnโt entirely shit.
In 2025 i dont believe interviews have anything to do with resumes
milk chocolate flour
Itโs all about shaking the right hands it seems
If youre competing with like 500 people
Your chances of getting to the interview is maybe less than 1%
you are not competing with 500 people you are competing with the attention of karen from hr
or ai model
I do believe however in like proper networking
mfw you have to be good to get a good job 
If you are US based, I highly recommend looking if you have a Defcon group in your local. Itโs a good chance to get in touch with professionals in your area.
They dont care about that anymore
You could have built two nuclear reactors in your backyard, HR will still ignore you lol

The network diagram we got from a โjr cisspโ consultant the other day would suggest otherwise

but are we good enough
๐
The way i got my shit job at autozone
Which my boss actually rejects a lot of people for
Is by going to the store first and introducing myself to her
Bro gave us a document that looked like a spider on drugs made a web and called it a network topology lol
Well its not a shir job theres actually worse out there.
Well no being a delivery guy is a really hard and stressful low paying job
Uber/lyft driving too is also very harsh
Taxi is harsh. Etc theres a lot that is harsh.
People working in places like McDonald's have it good because they at least at bare minimum have air conditioning
I second this
Local defcon groups are awesome
How you find one of those
usually start by googling
You can also network through discord and get referrals that way
i got my first job via discord no lie
2 of my pentester roles were also gotten through discord connections
we are not so diff then ๐ค
Hire me
Yeah i just googled for one it says i gotta email this guy
Im excellent at running nessus
real hackers dont have social media
And burp active scan
We are hiring (US based though)
they email each other
Ok marry me first then 
not us based but could you just paste the qualifciations without the bullshit (like team player and other hr stuff)
dont forget to encrypt with his public key to leave a lasting impression
||this is actually real. people do this irl||
It makes sense tho i get it
Public and private key encryption is still somewhat a mystery to me under the hood
If youโre in the US there is a github repo that lists all of them. It is normally like DC(area code)
its just copy pasta commands for now but you could use cryptohack site to learn more
Pfft, just include a picture of the HR persons house with your CV if you really want the job 
Yeah for me its DC212 apparently
bro dont dox yourself online
Pretty standard job stuff, for our web role (senior/principal level):
- 5-8 years hands on web testing experience
- One of OSWE, OSWA, BSCP, eWPT, eWPTX, or other similar cert
- Familiarity with testing modern applications and WAF bypasses
- Public advisories (CVEs, bug bounty, etc) is a plus
Mine hosts a monthly meetup where someone talks about something and there are also virtual blue team & red team nights.
just do your location + defcon local community
thats actually do able 
if i land in the us someday i would apply
its also cool that yall have roles for pentesting
like web
ultra rare these days
I thought getting a soc analyst job would be quicker than trying to get a pentesting role but it seems both are just luck of the draw at this point
Hmm ๐ค
there is a reason i am a web dev 
Let me follow SOPs and escalate accordingly ๐ฉ
Its interesting that you say that
The job postings act like you need to be a security architect just to work tier 1 in a SOC.
I have 69 yoe
Yeah even AI will tell you webdev is where its at
I've interviewed people who have been working longer than I've been alive 

I think even fintech is easier than security anything these days because security is optional
Thats what i believe makes getting into security hard
do they become like yoda at that point
Far from it
Yoda is cool and wise
Those guys are corporate and normie
Like people just dont care, that dentist will in fact use windows 10 in his office because it just works
i mean if u pentest for 30 years you should be wise
Ok, we will have this talk again in 30 years
If you pentest for 30 years youre just raymond kenny fron watchdogs

;P
Yes
It's a common backdoor
ok
Oh you are asking about the mechanisms of suid?

๐
suidbash sounds like some usermade program
Yes, try ./suidbash -i
The crazies security barrier is probably a shell with no access to commands.
Did we really wrap a program around chmod 4777 /bin/bash ๐
Friday-2
Without -p bash will always make the UID be the same as EUID
Stop it frost
But without -i it won't work either, you want an interactive shell

Check euid?
the suid is there? and the binary is root:root owned?
Interesting, you probably have a weird reverse shell
It should be if the programmer knows what's he doing
But most Linux tools will care about that
so it's a must-know still
I just dont see the point in setting the suid bit on anything
