[scarlet verge]

Hello

[warped plank]

Damn haha

bro got express from Santa for being extra nice this year

[bronze lion]

Ye saying that, I don't understand the big idea of the overpriced doll called labubu or something

My cousin was requesting his mom to buy him one

[green kite]

yeah

my kid asked 1 thing

a gabby doll house

and she said, I will only ask for 1 thing, so Sinterklaas can give stuff to the other kids too

oh she asked for 2 things actually, matchbox cars for her brother

[scenic maple]

what does sparkling want from santa

[green kite]

something he can't give me

fast forward to april 😆

[warped plank]

What's in april?

[green kite]

RV should be delivered + less cold weather

[warped plank]

ngl I'd prefer cold weather

it's too damn warm here right now

[scenic maple]

me 2

but its always so hot in here

[green kite]

what temp is it over there @scenic maple

its 12c here atm

next week friday -3

[scenic maple]

24

and its night

[green kite]

phew

[scenic maple]

my country cant get too hold or too cold

its very close to equator

ok not very close but you get the idea

[cerulean bloom]

it's 1c at 11 PM rn

[scenic maple]

u live in a cyberpunk city

u should be able to bear it

[cerulean bloom]

wut

cyberpunk

WUT

[scenic maple]

yeah sk is pretty cyberpunkish no?

[cerulean bloom]

uhhhh

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-leaf-vibes-vibing-sleeping-cat-gif-17297041570420202318

[cerulean bloom]

this look like cyberpunK?

south korea does look like cyberpunk lol

[scenic maple]

yes

same for japan as well

[cerulean bloom]

makes sense tbh

[rapid badger]

its just like my videogames

[green kite]

lets flush prod cache

when we are bout to get flooded by bots

who thought it was a good idea?

me

[scenic maple]

was it a good idea?

[green kite]

we will know in 4 min

bots will start in4 min

[scenic maple]

no one is atheist during ci build

[green kite]

oh no it was not a build haha

[scenic maple]

\j

[green kite]

I changed something in prod code

via ssh

[scenic maple]

its joever

lmao

[cerulean bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/time-is-up-judge-judy-gif-18122975

[cerulean bloom]

WHAT

its over

the world........ ended?

[scenic maple]

today i learned sparkling is a brave man

[cerulean bloom]

[scenic maple]

its more powerful than "its over"

"its joever"

[green kite]

haha

[scenic maple]

https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/14vdr9m/what_does_joever_mean/

[green kite]

customer wanted a quick change

I mean it was minor

too small to strart the full ci cd

[scenic maple]

but how long does ci cd take for you

[green kite]

it takes about 20 min

for full builds

[scenic maple]

daaang

what are u even building

for 20 mins

if i would write large apps it would take 5-6 mins max

[green kite]

well, it checks out the git repo, then it compiles all the code, then it compiles the CSS / template files for the backend

and then frontend

[scenic maple]

well i guess your small is my large

[native plume]

So it's like 上over (which literally reads to me above over) 💀

[green kite]

it downloads all packages via composer

[undone fossil]

20mins isnt tooooo bad

guess it depends on the language and dependencies etc.

[fathom bronze]

hey

[scenic maple]

well its php so you judge now

[undone fossil]

terrible gg

[green kite]

after the building steps, it will create an archive, then it will put the package on our server and rsyncs all files

then db upgrades if needed

[scenic maple]

ow ok now i see why

[undone fossil]

have you considered rewriting using the BCHS stack, nothing better
https://learnbchs.org/easy.html

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/m9vL0RN739B.gif

[green kite]

@scenic maple this is the build step

deploy

[scenic maple]

well yeah thats what i thought actual "code" and "build" stuff happens in 5/6

rest is for db and file read write and downloading

[green kite]

yeah

[scenic maple]

where do you deploy it tho

[green kite]

I use CircleCI - but the customer's servers are hosted with AWS

[scenic maple]

nice

u save money

[green kite]

yeah I dont host

[plush grove]

My main go-to cybersecurity speakers are Gerald Auger (Simply Cyber) and Jack Rhysider (Darknet Diaries). I’m looking for more recommendations with high‑quality, intermediate‑level content that isn’t behind a paywall. A lot of YouTubers and ‘cyber influencers’ feel repetitive or aimed at beginners, or they focus too narrowly on one cert vendor. I’d love suggestions for creators who go deeper than entry‑level while still being accessible and free.

[green kite]

I dont want the liability lol

[scenic maple]

but if aws is down u get blamed no?

[green kite]

the bots dissapoint me

load is only going to 34

[green kite]

no

[scenic maple]

dang u got nice customers

[green kite]

we pay a hosting company to take care of the servers

so we just blame them

[scenic maple]

we all need a scape goat sometmes

[cerulean bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/goatishere-gif-26768694

[green kite]

when cloudflsre went down, they were like, shall we search for a backup?

sorry to hear that

you should try good old nepotism

[signal mica]

No i hate any form of advantage when getting jobs/promo

No refs

[open vigil]

emmm good old hajime motivation

[signal mica]

No nepo

[scenic maple]

why tho

[signal mica]

I find it weak

I dont need anyone to vouch or me

I know how good i am

[scenic maple]

thats really noble of you but the world isnt full of people like you

issue is many times they prefer people who get referred over the people who are more skilled

[open vigil]

sometimes you wont be given the chance even if you are good

[signal mica]

Then i dont wanna work there

[scenic maple]

but still there are places where you will be appreciated

[open vigil]

unless someone vouches for you

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-gigacat-giga-gigabute-spyder228-gif-25745479

this u vro?

[open vigil]

and the reason is plain stupid (automated checking of resumes or an HR who hates his/her life)

[signal mica]

I understand some positions must be vouched for, but those are far in the future

Defo not the positions any of us are applying

[scenic maple]

you will never know what i am applying as

https://tenor.com/bC4Uw.gif

[dapper karma]

interesting mindset, hope reality will not force u to change it

[molten bobcat]

I arrive

[signal mica]

Thanks chaty had to vent somewhere

[scenic maple]

he is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will...

[molten bobcat]

I got my role from a reference I don't feel nepo babied

[cerulean bloom]

golam, you willing to refer me /j

[molten bobcat]

But my reference actually knows my work ethic so

[scenic maple]

whatever money they will pay you will be less lol

if u don't know you are eating them

[molten bobcat]

I'm gonna take a shower you guys have fun talking about balls

[acoustic pelican]

how long it took to you to get a job in cybersecurity ? both red/ blue teams ?

Does it require you to invest money or get recomandations ?

[scenic maple]

it depends

[carmine pecan]

Anywhere from 3 months to 5 years, I've seem both

[acoustic pelican]

Does it require you to have some money to invest ?

[scenic maple]

again it depends on what position/company you are going for and what certs/recommendations u already have

starting from 0 and trying to go fast will probably cost money

[acoustic pelican]

and the first certificate is Security+ ? that matters for HR

[scenic maple]

try to loop up the places you want to work in and the positions you like

[acoustic pelican]

starting from 0

[scenic maple]

and then see their job posts and see what they require

[acoustic pelican]

In my country junior jobs have requirements that are quite high

I never worked in my entire life

so , i never had practical staff in IT

[scenic maple]

then you have to get those

[acoustic pelican]

I just started 2 months ago my masters

and I don't have coding or tech experience

[scenic maple]

if i were you i would get started in IT and get a job in it

while working for 1-2 years i would get certs and master skills

after that i would apply for cybersec jobs starting with soc

[acoustic pelican]

Most jobs here in Romania for junior positions , require you to have 5 certs and 1-3 experience

for me junior is 0-1

meaning they also take people with 0

:)))

[scenic maple]

those 3 years of exp dont need to be of cyber

it can be IT

right?

[acoustic pelican]

True

I got 0

in all fields

[scenic maple]

well then get some 😩

[acoustic pelican]

I have some months in economics

but I hated it and couldn't do it

So I should get a entry level it job ?

[scenic maple]

i cant tell you what to do ofc
but i will say i would do it if i were you

its always better to keep working
specially since job gaps look like a stain on cv

a ugly one

[acoustic pelican]

What I did , was to quit like 30 jobs because I couldn't handle the stress

especially social stress due to my brain

and my brain functions bad in social jobs

@scenic maple i think I quit over 20 jobs

[scenic maple]

do you think you can handle cybersec jobs?

they are stressful

[acoustic pelican]

yea

[scenic maple]

too you know

[acoustic pelican]

I like remote work

I don't like work that has to do with face2face

[scenic maple]

well try out stuff see what works

[hardy frigate]

Time to skill-up and get a remote cyber job

Just keep training and collaborating with others

[acoustic pelican]

It's hard to work here cause most jobs are badly payed

can't even cover up your living expenses and they are also demanding

For me getting a decent amount would be great.

not the highest but just a decent one.

[zealous charm]

hows the hacking today?

[buoyant wyvern]

great, completed one module from CPTS path

one step closer to CPTS

[molten bobcat]

I think that shower was so good it shaved off some IQ

[carmine pecan]

I would think a good shower would increase it not diminish

but ok, interesting... framework I guess

[scenic maple]

got stuck on lfi today and choked

[carmine pecan]

lfi is elite

They just pretend it's super easy when teaching

[zealous charm]

Nice, what were you testing?

[scenic maple]

academy skils assesment

[carmine pecan]

🧉

[zealous charm]

LFI in real life is easier than labs imo

[scenic maple]

altho hunted for some time in a vdp let me see which one it is

[green kite]

lfis are fun

[cursive kettle]

@quartz axle

[scenic maple]

it was this but i forgot name

i keep finding interesting stuff but not bugs

[zealous charm]

💯

[scenic maple]

i think i will get them in due time

[carmine pecan]

please don't DoS aviationweather golam

nor deface it

🎩

[scenic maple]

[carmine pecan]

[scenic maple]

atleast one of them has to be vulnerable

[zealous charm]

For sure

[carmine pecan]

lol

[zealous charm]

.govs are easy

Grab the gau/wayback data, grep for '=' and you'll find rXSS guaranteed

[scenic maple]

i dont get the wayback thing how does it help

like wayback archives stuff right

if we want to look for params like query= we do a google dork no? 🤔

[zealous charm]

Try running gau vs a google dork and compare the results

[scenic maple]

i will ty for recommending

[carmine pecan]

homebrewer is a white hat right?

[scenic maple]

he doesnt wear hats

[carmine pecan]

I see a hat in the duck

[scenic maple]

i think ducks like hats

all the goated bbh tools are being written in go

[green kite]

I got invited to a program where one needs to have an insurance contract

before you can test it

you need a valid policy on their end lol

[scenic maple]

uggh paperwork

[green kite]

its ridiculous

as its paid

[scenic maple]

the creator of gau is a great web designer lol

[subtle plover]

Its almost holyday

[zealous charm]

I like gau but there is also “way more” tool which functions similarly

[zealous charm]

Yes but I enjoy hacking .gov sites (that are in-scope)

[scenic maple]

it seems he also uses light mode like us

[zealous charm]

I see bugs better in light mode

[green kite]

[carmine pecan]

Wait 'til y'all meet pink theme

It's overkill

Heard it's what NLTE and ahos6 uses

@austere sinew dead wolo 😩

@meager kernel

@thick forge

Chat help me ping before I leave the chat

[royal sable]

im sorry but any way yall can guide me tho??

[meager kernel]

Depends on how much time you invest on it per day
Few years of dedicated learning is enough to land you in a beginner role, from there on you can learn more and upskill onto bigger roles

Yes you will need to invest some money into subscriptions such as HTB Labs and HTB academy, and certs, but it's a very minor investment in front of what you can earn from this field

[mystic harbor]

@supple plume

[royal sable]

my cource is bsc hons cybersecurity and ethical hacking course provided by uk uni coventry

[supple plume]

@mystic harbor ngsh

[royal sable]

affiliated clearly

[meager kernel]

Tbh few years of extremely dedication, like 3-4+ hours per day can get you better than beginner role

Ofcourse if you dedicate like 6-7 hours you'll be pretty damn good
Provided that your course of study is well built

You're practicing both machines and study material

And you're studying what actually matters

[royal sable]

im really new to anything

[thick forge]

whatsup

i am bored

i feel like in endgame but in life

i need some interesting to do

what thing

[acoustic pelican]

how to make jobs ?

I don't know where to start, what to do , what to click

how to search, my brain is like 0% sense

[scenic maple]

who is paul jeremy and why do you trust him with all your heart?

[acoustic pelican]

All I know is how the desktop interface works

[acoustic pelican]

dunno who is he, that's a cert list

basicly a roadmap

[scenic maple]

so if i make a roadmap you will follow it too?

its not a roadmap or a list of certs to get

even he doesnt have all of them

its just comparing stuff

[royal sable]

hey please help me with the flag guys

pleaseeeeeeeee anyone??

[scenic maple]

from where

box or module

[neon zealot]

]its been <t:1766074161:R> since u havent replied

[royal sable]

anyone??

who can guide me

or perhaps find the flag and tell me how they did it

[scenic maple]

guide you where

find what flag

from where

[thick forge]

which trap, trap like a trap o trap like a laydyboys 🤣

[royal sable]

this is it

we just have to decrypt

5 hr of staring to the abyss

[thick forge]

i am just joking, if you wanna find a job just try it, is just math, in some point you gonna have one, you just need to have consistency

[scenic maple]

where is shit from?

its from a college?

[royal sable]

its like an assignemt practice for me

before the actual competition

[topaz latch]

it was a fake flag dw

[scenic maple]

we dont help with assignments

[topaz latch]

😂

[scenic maple]

you are supposed to find it yourself

[royal sable]

help me anyone please

[scenic maple]

no

[royal sable]

guide me then

[scenic maple]

ask your professor

he gets paid for it

[royal sable]

i converted it to base 64 then wrote a python code to decrypt which failed miserably and then i tried to decode the hash for it and i failed again

[topaz latch]

try harder maybe

[royal sable]

harsh💀💀

[acoustic pelican]

how much does a degree help ?

[royal sable]

my heads gonna burst

[acoustic pelican]

compared to certs ?

[topaz latch]

then sleep

[acoustic pelican]

if i get a degree ? will that help me as much as certs will

[dusky jacinth]

Brother by would you base64 in code something just to decode it

[royal sable]

i cant

[topaz latch]

once you wake up you'll get the solution

[dusky jacinth]

Are you transferring a file?

[royal sable]

i wanna be the first solver forit

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah gl with that bro

[scenic maple]

did you see the listings in the companies/positions you want to work in?

[dusky jacinth]

Go ask in the correct chat

[royal sable]

in 4 years you could be giga peak in ctfs

[dusky jacinth]

Give up on that

Just try to solve it

Don’t worry about when or if you did it first

No one cares

[scenic maple]

rank chasers will always get beaten by the people who do it for fun

[royal sable]

true

[plush zephyr]

Stop leaking my pics

[royal sable]

i am really curious about it

[dusky jacinth]

Then solve it

Stop wasting time asking us if you care so bad about how fast you get it

[royal sable]

im trying to and im clueless so im seeking guidance

[scenic maple]

1 try it
2 ask your professor
how hard is it to follow 😩

[dusky jacinth]

One

Ong**

[scenic maple]

its a simple challenge if we give guidance there wont be a challenge

[royal sable]

professors are like do on ur own they dont care ab it

[dusky jacinth]

Good

They should

You gotta figure it out

Or you won’t learn

Google it

[scenic maple]

if people who get paid to help you dont help you why do you think we should
we dont even get paid

[royal sable]

can u help me a bit tho??

[dusky jacinth]

If you have already google it more

No we cannot

Are you blind?

[scenic maple]

also it is immoral to help you right now cause it will harm your learning

[dusky jacinth]

Are you not reading our messages?

We are saying no

[scenic maple]

you must find your own answers

[thick forge]

giveme 99999999999 billions and i can solve it

[dusky jacinth]

Ong he can

What I find odd and not ok

[scenic maple]

^

[acoustic pelican]

is that what you do in a job

is not what you do home or studying

like getting a job and doing the job is so different

[scenic maple]

start-here sir

I dislike that @scenic maple because it's not fair

years ago

[undone fossil]

Thanks how’s it going

[cerulean bloom]

yes, u can use VMs

[scenic maple]

you can use a virtual machine

[cerulean bloom]

virtual machines

[ornate ibex]

or dual boot

[subtle plover]

virtual machine

[ornate ibex]

Froj!!!!!

[karmic sphinx]

oh

[subtle plover]

or docker container

[scenic maple]

https://academy.hackthebox.com/course/preview/setting-up

[undone fossil]

Don’t dual boot windows on the same drive 😅 make sure to have seperate if you do

[royal sable]

yeah i also tried dual booting but i couldnt get it done why??

[karmic sphinx]

okay thanks

[ornate ibex]

patience

[undone fossil]

Hello sir

[ornate ibex]

troubleshooting

[karmic sphinx]

like...f drive or something?

[ornate ibex]

Hi sir 👋

[scenic maple]

anything thats not c

[undone fossil]

Idk the letter is just a label

[karmic sphinx]

ohhh

[subtle plover]

i managed to dual boot but then windows was gone

[undone fossil]

Just not on the same

[karmic sphinx]

alright thanksu

[subtle plover]

just install arch linux for hacking kali is for skids

[undone fossil]

Honestly if you don’t know I’d recommend a VM

[cerulean bloom]

noooooooo

[undone fossil]

Solid ragebait

[cerulean bloom]

not arch

[royal sable]

im learning kali😭😭

[cerulean bloom]

yes, good idea
idk how u learn kali, but good

[royal sable]

i find garuda linux cool hehe

[royal sable]

college course

[cerulean bloom]

noice

[supple plume]

Trap trap

[subtle plover]

learning kali doesnt make sense

[undone fossil]

Also only skids don’t use the BCHS tech stack

[royal sable]

the only things i learnt is red team blue team script kiddies gray hat black hat cd.. ls mkdir open -it ubuntu

[scenic maple]

learn pentoo

[royal sable]

im doomed

[supple plume]

Do you use arch?

[subtle plover]

yes

[karmic sphinx]

wait, isnt kali just an os

[cerulean bloom]

I use arch

[subtle plover]

i use arch with gnome

[cerulean bloom]

yes

[meager kernel]

You learn Kali by using it

[scenic maple]

proof where?

[supple plume]

Really?

[meager kernel]

Yes, a distro

[rustic quiver]

It is 😭

[cerulean bloom]

ye

[subtle plover]

i have arch in WSL 2

[cerulean bloom]

hyprland

[scenic maple]

thats not a arch user

[karmic sphinx]

💔 my prof told me to download it and learn penetration testing there

[scenic maple]

thats a windows user

[meager kernel]

*an

[cerulean bloom]

how bout hyprland

[supple plume]

You are using windows btw

[meager kernel]

Cybersec degree?
That is lucky

[rustic quiver]

Arch or kali guys?

[subtle plover]

nah

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/view/lahan-apothecary-diaries-aksyually-kusuriya-nerd-gif-13583466742075815075

[cerulean bloom]

kali imo

[subtle plover]

arch on vvindovvs is best

[rustic quiver]

Fr

[meager kernel]

Kali is only for pentesting

For daily driver, windows

[scenic maple]

its good paractices but unstable
really unstable

it will be unstable for the next few decades

[karmic sphinx]

yeah but they arent teaching us anything related to it in first year. We are just learning basic coding. Python, java and c++

[rustic quiver]

Yeah kali better but arch is more considered for pen testing idk why?

Kali is better in tools and resources

[scenic maple]

but it will eventually replace x11 (wayland i mean will replace)

[meager kernel]

Who tf would consider arch for pentesting?

[rustic quiver]

Bdo i heared

From different ppl

[meager kernel]

Yea 1st year is usually just common subjects

[rustic quiver]

They say arch better for pen testing idk why

[meager kernel]

Must be stupid ppl

[cerulean bloom]

dont trust them

kali is better

[meager kernel]

Kali gives you everything setup already

[scenic maple]

many people do use arch for pentesting there is nothing wrong with that

[karmic sphinx]

honestly its stupid for a cybersec major to learn chemistry

[rustic quiver]

Ye i use kali as well

[scenic maple]

any distro can be used for pentesting

[karmic sphinx]

so for a beginner is kali good enough to start

[meager kernel]

It is what it is, unfortunately

[rustic quiver]

Kali

[scenic maple]

every distro has its own cons and perks

[rustic quiver]

Use kali

[karmic sphinx]

alright

[subtle plover]

no start with centos

[meager kernel]

You'll use Kali as a beginner and also as an expert

[scenic maple]

kali does come with a lot of installed tools and its also a benefit and a con cause it also has tools you will never use or need

[supple plume]

What makes one good on pentesting is not using arch or kali

[thick forge]

kali is like a starter pack

[supple plume]

Is called skills

[scenic maple]

but at the end of the day its personal choice

[rustic quiver]

Skills

[meager kernel]

Dude just use Kali with all tools pre-installed

And be happy

[subtle plover]

skids

i identify as @scenic maple

were cats

[rustic quiver]

Bro guys i am doing pen testing path currently should i move to web applications one or just join bug bounty after my current path

[meager kernel]

I identify as always correct in every argument

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/view/kekuwu-kekw-anime-gif-10260786903607553889

[meager kernel]

For bug bounty, do but bounty path

For pentesting, do pentesting path

Both overlap alot

[subtle plover]

but bounty

[meager kernel]

Butt bounty

[rustic quiver]

I want to be good in bug bounty but i will do pen testing ?
it will help me in knowledge and things right

Right?

[thick forge]

new learners every day

[scenic maple]

these 2 are very different things altho might overlap in terms of skills

[rustic quiver]

Oh

[proud moth]

IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE

name one NON-ADHD hack the box user

[rustic quiver]

But basics and some mostly things are same?

[proud moth]

i'll wait

[rustic quiver]

Isnt it?

[meager kernel]

Me?

I don't have ADHD or any attention disorder

[scenic maple]

basics are same yes

[proud moth]

nah i don't believe it

[scenic maple]

One is paid for the attempt, the other is paid for impact. That being said, pentester are conditioned to provide mostly comprehensive coverage in a timebox, but dont always have the time to go as deep as a bug hunter might ~ cinzinga

[meager kernel]

Then don't.
I have never been diagnosed with any mental disorder

[rustic quiver]

Yeah that's what i am saying i should complete pen testing path it will help me once i do complete then i can join bug bounty

Web applications should i or just bug bounty after it?

[supple plume]

He just doesn't know it yet

[meager kernel]

I have never shown symptoms of any mental disorder
I would know since my sister is a psychiatrist

Thankfully I'm not an Arch user

Otherwise I would have had many disorders

[supple plume]

If you paid more attention to my message you would have detected that I was joking

[meager kernel]

I know

I just didn't care 🥰

[supple plume]

You just wanted to say that

[meager kernel]

Yes

[supple plume]

I see

[meager kernel]

Needed a build up to insult the Arch user

[supple plume]

See chat he is the instigator of the OS wars

"making games is super expensive!!!!!!!! I CAN"T MAKE A GUD GAME BECOZ IT TAKES MONEYY NOOOOO!!!"

meanwhile the most successful game of 2022:

what a legendary game this was

[supple plume]

I just look it up, looks fun

Too bad I don't play games anymore...

[proud moth]

it's a unique experience, it's such a weird game

lives into your brain rent free

it almost has no gamplay whatsoever, the gameplay is just your brain releasing the happy chemicals

when skeleton goes bonk

[supple plume]

Last game I enjoyed was project zomboid

[sturdy thistle]

@austere sinew Ello

If u ping me, you though of me❤️

[proud moth]

man i feel this

what even happened to us, games used to be so fun

is the problem the games? or us...damn

[supple plume]

It's probably both

[meager kernel]

Wello

[proud moth]

i know you remember GTA SA

remember that game? that was the stuff of the Gods

[supple plume]

I'm still watching easter egg videos sometimes

[proud moth]

damn...pure nostalgia right there

the only recent game that came close to that feeling is elden ring

i don't even know how those mfs pulled that off

[supple plume]

I couldn't play that more than 1 hour, it's a great game I just don't have the Playstation

Someday I will hopefully

Do you speak Italian?

[proud moth]

yeah i was born there i am native italian

but when i try to speak it, i have this funny accent to it now

[supple plume]

Il mio gusto per la dona es solo el mello, mas con la justa dosi de isporco

[proud moth]

this is a classic BOTONES moment

[supple plume]

I learned that from here

[proud moth]

but in italian this would be "il mio gusto in fatto di donne, e' solo il meglio"

[upbeat tangle]

so not only do you learn hacking, you also learn italian

[proud moth]

that is more like spanish

Even though they said eeeeeverything was working and replaced :D

I’m going to Best Buy to get a new laptop today anyway instead

I’ve decided

So this literally doesn’t even matter to me

[green kite]

Get a Mac

[silver forge]

I'd never buy a Dell with my own money tbh

[fierce vale]

that's what you get with dell I guess

[green kite]

I’d never buy a dell

[mystic harbor]

Just DIY man it's not that hard

[silver forge]

I could buy a Mac. Or a Thinkpad (T-series). I could buy Asus for gaming. But Dell? Not a chance.

[green kite]

I owned a HP laptop once

It lasted 12 days

[silver forge]

HP has separate consumer lines, which are just trash, and then there are business lines that are tolerable.

[fierce vale]

refurbished thinkpad

[green kite]

Must’ve been the trash line. This was 15 years ago though

[silver forge]

Yeah refurbished T-series Thinkpad is gigachad choice.

I was going to ask if I had to go to support or where

Was there maybe no flag?

nokia 3310 will die when 2G networks die unfortunately

Try to restart the box and try again
