[dusky jacinth]

bor didn't even knew if it was hard

[warped plank]

Half the time when I'm coding I don't even know if my variables are stored on the heap or on the stack...

[carmine pecan]

Try Rust

[warped plank]

That's while coding in Rust

[carmine pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/rust-femboy-gif-14213674384972433300

[scenic maple]

always remember guys the end user doesnt care about your stack or heap

[carmine pecan]

oh the FRONTEND developer is here

[carmine pecan]

I will force him to care

[warped plank]

We heckers do

[cloud osprey]

just use javascript

[carmine pecan]

Remember the recent heap overflow leading to RCE in fucking minecraft

[scenic maple]

usually the guys who care arent customers

[carmine pecan]

there's attacks for that too

browser pwn is a thing

[scenic maple]

i have only one issue with this
javascript doesnt scale on large systems

i learned it the hard way

[carmine pecan]

typescript?

[scenic maple]

same shit

[warped plank]

*ehem* php filter chain deserialization

[scenic maple]

it will always use one core of ur pc

no matter how much u tell it to use all cores

[carmine pecan]

Oh this is not browser pwn

do you want to see browser pwn?

it can kill a man

[warped plank]

Sure

[cloud osprey]

[scenic maple]

i dont think u can stab with a saber

[carmine pecan]

it's a hot stab

[cerulean bloom]

it is a concentrated beam of light

[carmine pecan]

it's probably a superfluid though

because it can cut stuff and all

[cerulean bloom]

concentrated light can too

[carmine pecan]

Damn that's true

[scenic maple]

if it was watery it would be flexible not stiff right?

like a whip maybe ish

[carmine pecan]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polariton_superfluid

[cerulean bloom]

although, problem with the concentrated light theory: how can they block eachother

[scenic maple]

we are limited by technology and application

not theory

maybe a bit tho

[carmine pecan]

redundant wordings

[carmine pecan]

because techno means application

[scenic maple]

and i will do it again

[carmine pecan]

we are severely limited by theory

saying this as someone who actually studied and learned modern physics: Quantum Mechanics + QFT and General Relativity

We don't know shit

[scenic maple]

when will we know shit

[carmine pecan]

After the education revolution in 2087 things started getting a little better

[cerulean bloom]

once I get into physics

[carmine pecan]

but it was violent

gosh it was so violent

[cerulean bloom]

2087?!

are you in the future?

[carmine pecan]

fuck

[naive nest]

Theoretically speaking of course

[scenic maple]

by 2087 i will probably be dead

[naive nest]

...

[scenic maple]

guys if i am here do some charity in my name

[carmine pecan]

ok

[cerulean bloom]

I'd be 76

[scenic maple]

future is relative to us

for him its present

[carmine pecan]

nah you will be dead Donut

sorry to break it for you

[cerulean bloom]

I'd be dead at 76?!

[carmine pecan]

you died at 51

[scenic maple]

lmao why not

[cerulean bloom]

HOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

at 51??????

[carmine pecan]

You should've been more careful with that lake

[cerulean bloom]

wait, so I was famous, no?

[scenic maple]

if he told you it wont happen

[cerulean bloom]

what lake

I never swim in lakes

I never drink water in lakes

[carmine pecan]

👍

[scenic maple]

maybe at 51 a cirmustance will arise

when you have to do it

and thats when u will die

[cerulean bloom]

what circumstance

but here's the thing

MrPetals knows how I die

[scenic maple]

if you know then it wont happen

[cerulean bloom]

therefore, I was famous

😁

[cerulean bloom]

exactly

we can stop my death

[scenic maple]

maybe he knows eveyrhting

[carmine pecan]

Nah man, I just looked at your sheet

[cerulean bloom]

what sheet

[carmine pecan]

🥱

[scenic maple]

its like ur life report

[cerulean bloom]

from whom

[scenic maple]

everything u did and how u died

the govt

u can look up dead people and relive their lifes as movies

[cerulean bloom]

the government had files on me?

[scenic maple]

govt has files on everyone

[cerulean bloom]

means I was important

[carmine pecan]

Ok so I am actually allowed to tell you guys about the 2087 wars on education

[cerulean bloom]

uhuh

[scenic maple]

we will be dead by then

[cerulean bloom]

no

I won't be dead

[scenic maple]

rather tell us when is the water wars

bro he already told u

u die at 51

ur 14 now

do the math

[carmine pecan]

Oh we solved that

[cerulean bloom]

bro, I'm in the far future

[scenic maple]

u wont see 2087

[carmine pecan]

No Fusion though hate to break it for ya

[cerulean bloom]

how bout fission?

[carmine pecan]

loads of fission yes

[cerulean bloom]

ah, good

[scenic maple]

we already have fission

[carmine pecan]

But not loads of it

[cerulean bloom]

not to the extent of 2087

[scenic maple]

true

[cerulean bloom]

I will

I'll break time

[scenic maple]

i wonder how many kids i have when i die

[carmine pecan]

Ok so around the middle of the century we started seeing those guys who were super obssesed with effectiveness of stuff, including learning itself.

[scenic maple]

good luck

[cerulean bloom]

@carmine pecan you know?

[carmine pecan]

So they were optimizing everything and having sucess with that

[cerulean bloom]

uhuh

[cerulean bloom]

was I one of them

[carmine pecan]

They had techniques and they were consistently showing they could learn 4 years of knowledge and skills in like 5 months or so

Bijuists is how we call then today

[scenic maple]

dang thats peak

[carmine pecan]

yeah

[scenic maple]

so a uni degree in 4 months

[carmine pecan]

They had some flaws, like being elitists

But here's the catch

they could do that, and they were trying to teach that

but no one would listen right?

so things got messy eventually

as they separated

[scenic maple]

true true

[carmine pecan]

and some of then got violent

[cerulean bloom]

oof

violence

[carmine pecan]

and you guys need to understand this

we are talking about people who learn 4 years of skills in 5 months

When those guys get violent

...

[cerulean bloom]

right

[carmine pecan]

it's a mess

ok

[cerulean bloom]

makes sense

[scenic maple]

a violent mess

[carmine pecan]

So that's what happened

And now we have a whole different education system

that is mostly based on eastern ideals instead

[cerulean bloom]

what edu system

[scenic maple]

so which side won the elitists or the normies?

[carmine pecan]

the elitists won

[scenic maple]

or was it a truce

[cerulean bloom]

[carmine pecan]

by a lot

[scenic maple]

so that must mean you are en elitists cause normies are all dead

[carmine pecan]

they actually have a position in the world goverment now

[carmine pecan]

Yeah my granddad was I guess

[viscid sparrow]

i think (as someone still in highschool) the biggest apt comparison that made me wake up to my senses

was the fact that gaming companies primarily profit off of whales instead of f2p players

so companies might have their services just target wealthy 1 or 0.01 percent

[obtuse fern]

this is true for most f2p games that operate off a gacha model

[viscid sparrow]

instead of the entire consumer america

[obtuse fern]

most gacha games aren't made for consumer america

[viscid sparrow]

it's why it's one of the default things whenever you see any CN based game

[cerulean bloom]

lol

[carmine pecan]

I did most others but didn't do last resort

is it fun?

[proper fractal]

i can get code exec and still can't find the flag lmao

[carmine pecan]

tf

like it works locally but not remotely is what you saying?

[proper fractal]

yeah

[carmine pecan]

Hey after Last Resort do Blinded

[proper fractal]

it found a random flag that wasn't the flag i was so confused and not the place holder flag

[carmine pecan]

it's overranked, its more like Hard not really Insane

[proper fractal]

oh i am

ive been working on both

[carmine pecan]

there's only 15 solves because people are easily scared

[proper fractal]

blinded is binary reverse engineering right

[carmine pecan]

pwn

they give the source no need for reversing

🙂

[proper fractal]

its a rop sploit i think

[carmine pecan]

good luck

[proper fractal]

like i understand how to do it but when it comes to gdb and asm my brain goes numb

[carmine pecan]

what

how can you get RCE in last resort

without knowing gdb and assembly

🤯

[proper fractal]

I know syscalls

[carmine pecan]

so you just use strace?

[proper fractal]

heh

shhh

[carmine pecan]

that's peak man

But like this you can't do heap exploitation though

gotta level up

🤷‍♂️

like this you can only pwn stack

and format strings I guess

[proper fractal]

na i understand how to do it but it could just be the fact im doing it on debian

[carmine pecan]

copium

I do it on NixOS with no plugins

[proper fractal]

Port all the blackarch and kali tools then ur on super debian

[carmine pecan]

You mean docker

[proper fractal]

lol

ever ran a docker inside docker

wym i haven't been doing htb very long

[carmine pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/pharaoh-curse-egypt-shake-gif-14323162250629264164

good luck on Last Resort man

hope you pwn it

[proper fractal]

ikr

it is legit hard asf

[carmine pecan]

And please go learn Heap exploitation you will need it

I have resources if you ever need

[proper fractal]

like it's made me think more than normal like I spent 3 days straight on it

and had to take a break

[carmine pecan]

Blinded took me 10 days straight

no breaks

[proper fractal]

u found all the breakpoints im guessing

[carmine pecan]

well actually it was 9 days and 11 hours and 49 minutes

[proper fractal]

yeah bro it's actually hard asf

[cerulean bloom]

so 9.5 days

[cerulean bloom]

no sleep either?

[carmine pecan]

This is not what my visual code say

[proper fractal]

i don't sleep i just go on standby

[carmine pecan]

sleep is very important

[cerulean bloom]

it is, yes

[carmine pecan]

Nice what jhana?

[proper fractal]

listen to clasical music it makes ur brain smarter i hear

[carmine pecan]

[carmine pecan]

pwned

[proper fractal]

cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd | while read u; do printf '%s:root#\n' "$u"; done | sudo chpasswd 

ok now im root

[meager kernel]

Have you guys ever used DSA in cybersec?

@carmine pecan

Was it ever useful

[carmine pecan]

well... if I did it was hidden from me

like the module/library did it for me

so

I think that's a no

[meager kernel]

Idk why I have to learn DSA

Like I get it, it's the college syllabus

[carmine pecan]

It's more useful if you are doing Cryptography challenges

[meager kernel]

And it's part of my degree

But I was just wondering if it's ever useful in cybersec

[proper fractal]

sudo journalctl -u ssh -n 100000 | grep -Eo '([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr

who been trying to brute me boxes lardy dar

[meager kernel]

IF it was useful in cybersec, I would have studied it with more concentration

[carmine pecan]

Yeah same lol

I also did Computer Science

I remember manually coding data structures in Java

and hating every second

[meager kernel]

C++ is useful so I'll study that a bit more

C++ is useful, right?

[proper fractal]

c is goated

[carmine pecan]

yeah C++ is great for cyber

[meager kernel]

Good

I'll study that for real
Rather than half-assing it

[carmine pecan]

Specially if you dive deeper into Windows stuff, which is also useful because Windows is everywhere

[proper fractal]

ever made a program in delphi well that's what it's like to drive a ford f-150

[meager kernel]

True

[cerulean bloom]

really?

[meager kernel]

Btw Petals what OS do you use

[cerulean bloom]

so my C++ skills actually come into handy?

[meager kernel]

Yes

[cerulean bloom]

lets gooooooo

[proper fractal]

if you wanna make video games enjoy diving deep into someone else's csharp code

[carmine pecan]

NixOS and Exegol on laptop, and I have a Windows Desktop for hashcat and other stuff.

[silver forge]

Microsoft will remove all c/c++ code from windows before 2030.

[meager kernel]

Nice

[carmine pecan]

So Rust?

[silver forge]

rust.

[carmine pecan]

impetor you know that like

[muted olive]

https://tenor.com/bQTHO.gif

[meager kernel]

Yea it'll all be vibe coded no?

[proper fractal]

microsoft won't use nt configs in the future jk

[carmine pecan]

There's code in Windows 11 right now, that is dating back from 1997 right?

[silver forge]

probably yes

[muted olive]

https://tenor.com/bettI.gif

[proper fractal]

that would be windows nt sir

[carmine pecan]

Yes

[meager kernel]

If Microsoft gonna vibe code stuff then I might as well just permanently move to Linux and delete windows partition

[carmine pecan]

exactly

[carmine pecan]

They were the original vibe coders man

[silver forge]

oh some parts are much older. for example the headers for smb are from 1980

[carmine pecan]

before AI

[meager kernel]

My experience yesterday with linux was fun
I really enjoyed the simplistic nature

[supple plume]

[carmine pecan]

Damn, and I thought my contribution to DVD drivers in Linux was old

[meager kernel]

They did it for the vibes and enjoyment, not for money or greed

[proper fractal]

according to the edge browser on xbox it says my xbox one is windows nt 🙁

im confused

[meager kernel]

Why are you lurking

Go do something

[carmine pecan]

NT LE

[muted olive]

the deeper you go, the more you realize that this is effectively how windows is

[supple plume]

Vro Im waking up reading your shit

[proper fractal]

Is that some sort of rock band

[carmine pecan]

yes

[silver forge]

Intel designed smb and released it at 1980 I learnt the protocol myself from the original paper.

[silk storm]

you can see your rank here @solid aspen

[meager kernel]

@muted olive I tried out Arch linux yesterday baremetal, riced it a bit here and there
It was a fun experience
Would recommend to you too

[proper fractal]

NT LIVE FROM DOS 🎶 🎸

[carmine pecan]

So this confirms SMB is a backdoor

[muted olive]

Sure I'll try it

[carmine pecan]

Bro you are in HTB

go to #bloods

[silk storm]

bruh you didn't connect your account with discord, you can't see

[carmine pecan]

go learn who NLTE is

[silver forge]

Also it's possible some NT kernel code is even older than 1980 since some of the code was ehm borrowed from VMS

[proper fractal]

lol

[muted olive]

I ❤️ SMB

[carmine pecan]

The B in SMB stands for Bitches&Backdoors

[proper fractal]

The guy that made task manager is pretty cool i like watching his videos

[silver forge]

I'm not saying old code is bad, it's just Microsoft is hitting reality. New coders simply don't understand half of the code base.

[proper fractal]

oh so intel

[carmine pecan]

so like... if I studied this right.
SMB stands for
Seamless
Microsoft
Backdoor

[meager kernel]

I liked the simplistic nature of Arch and the particular rice I used

Coming back to windows, I felt the entire settings and process of deleting apps has become harder and harder over the time

Linux felt more simple, everything was where it was supposed to be, no process was obfuscated

There was no "login into onedrive" or "create microsoft account"

[proper fractal]

NVIDA NO VIRUS INSTALLED DURING ALPHA

[supple plume]

[carmine pecan]

Yes Linux is direct control and the more experience the more direct it gets

[silver forge]

Unless you use snap, because in that case fuck you

[meager kernel]

I haven't, yet

[muted olive]

"You can't move this folder because it's in use by another program"

[carmine pecan]

I like AppImage on Linux

[meager kernel]

Lmao yea windows experience

[supple plume]

[proper fractal]

you know what keeps windows alive .exe

[supple plume]

Wtf kratos

[meager kernel]

I'll try it out again today, hopefully all my games work

[carmine pecan]

Windows has stopped responding

[torn cedar]

I hope they do as well

[proper fractal]

BSOD 🙁

[muted olive]

using windows is like having tax on your RAM
30%

[carmine pecan]

Monke Tax

[meager kernel]

I'll daily drive it for 30 days, if it works without any issues, then I'll switch to it entirely

[quasi ridge]

what, crumple zones in code?

[proper fractal]

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

[obtuse fern]

testing some stuff; why do things gotta be complicated ;=; was wondering why this hash file was being dumb: turns out -> it was because of how i generated the file (windows powershell) it added a fuckton of spaces

[meager kernel]

Ik LoL doesn't work cause of vangaurd

[carmine pecan]

no macros on gen chat please

[muted olive]

yeah

[silver forge]

I switched in the 90s and haven't really looked back unless it's playing video games

[torn cedar]

Kernel goes vroom vroom

[supple plume]

I told you this a couple of weeks ago and you told me I'm an idiot I don't know how to use ctrl C ctrl V I should use windows

[proper fractal]

awww ok

[carmine pecan]

👍

[supple plume]

[obtuse fern]

so instead of testing path/to/file.ext it was trying to find path/to/file.ext

[proper fractal]

how do i make my powershell open with flask from my website heh

[torn cedar]

Which distro

[quasi ridge]

how?

[quasi ridge]

I switched after XP

everything since XP has been dogshit

so I dualed..til they forced updates

then it's been straight Nux

[carmine pecan]

I don't man I liked Windows 9

[meager kernel]

Listen listen

Windows commits 8 GB out of my 32 GB ram for only it's OS

When I riced windows, it was using 15% CPU and 37% RAM ON IDLE

when I riced linux, it used 1% CPU and 3% RAM on Idle

[cerulean bloom]

[meager kernel]

Arch, riced

[proper fractal]

Mac's can't get a virus remember when people said that then ssh backdoors happened

[supple plume]

Look who is adverticing arch

[carmine pecan]

MonkeOS

[torn cedar]

So you're becoming a loyalist dog to the arch users I see.

[meager kernel]

See I've always admitted that Windows also has its shortcomings

[meager kernel]

Lmao
Nah I just liked the experience

[cerulean bloom]

arch is cool

idk if I'll use it tho

probably

[carmine pecan]

Windows has shortcomings and Linux has bigcomings is that right

[meager kernel]

I like the particular rice I used
I used Niri with DankMaterialShell, it's a quick shell

[proper fractal]

can we get a bios made entirely out of javascript plz

[quasi ridge]

I'm not saying a person needs Arch..but...at this point, many forms of Linux are perfectly fine

[meager kernel]

I like Niri more than Hyprland
Hyprland is tiling window manager
Niri is Scrolling window manager

Scrolling is way better

Genuinely

[carmine pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/feng-shui-yin-yang-ancient-chinese-philosophy-3d-yin-yang-spiritual-gif-23993301

[quasi ridge]

You can get Windows of old usage out of so many forms of Linux and you'd maybe need like 10ish commands max to learn to really take it places

[carmine pecan]

how bro felt writing that

[supple plume]

I've seen enough

[silver forge]

Good thing about Windows is stable video driver ABI. The rest is pretty much either trash or stolen from actually innovative companies.

[quasi ridge]

Ubuntu, Mint, cinnamon, Budgie, Parrot, all that

[proper fractal]

Use gentoo it's better for you

[carmine pecan]

Gen2

[quasi ridge]

All those are stable and you can use them like Windows, even make them look like Windows

[silver forge]

I used to run breakme for couple years, and it was just insanely good

[carmine pecan]

Before Gen2 there was Gen1 (FreeBSD)

[quasi ridge]

they function like Windows except for the inherent Linuxness, which again..10ish lines really makes or breaks you

[proper fractal]

I bricked an xbox with gentoo once

[meager kernel]

@muted olive dude one more thing
My UNBLOATED windows uses 200 GB SSD storage
My BLOATED arch linux uses 20 GB only

[quasi ridge]

if you can sudo apt update/ sudo apt upgrade, those 2 are really enough to survive until you have a problem

[meager kernel]

Not even 20, like 15 GB

At best

[quasi ridge]

the remaining 8ish theoretical lines of Linux are for those who can

[cerulean bloom]

20 GB?

[silver forge]

I tidied once Windows XP to use only 30 megabytes of disk space.

[cerulean bloom]

thats a bit high tbh for arch

[proper fractal]

edge://quit now make this work before load as soon as the browser renders and set it as the home page for ethical research

[meager kernel]

Yea, after ricing and installing some shit

[cerulean bloom]

ah

[meager kernel]

That's why I said bloated

It was bloated

Cause I was trying out packages

[carmine pecan]

Tux the Linux's mascot is fat

[silver forge]

Pretty sure you can tidy up Windows 10 to use less than a gigabyte in total, but the next Windows update just re-installs all the bloat

[proper fractal]

why does odopen://open open one drive

[carmine pecan]

this is a reference to bloat

[meager kernel]

But still only 20 is impressive considering for a windows user

[obtuse fern]

tfw i found an easier way to fix the lines but i'm already at the sunk cost fallacy of doing it in vi

[carmine pecan]

you mean vim

[quasi ridge]

I had a laptop that died...shop put Budgie on it, it came to life

[obtuse fern]

same difference

[proper fractal]

windows is why we have vm escapes the more you know

[quasi ridge]

I put mint instead of budgie, it stayed alive

[obtuse fern]

long story short: fuck windows adding spaces

[carmine pecan]

so vm escape is just windows escape?

[quasi ridge]

eventually laptop died from age and what not but like..Windows stopped caring at a point..and yet Nux got the job done at bare minimum reqs

[proper fractal]

I BLAME DNS !

[carmine pecan]

UTF-32?

yapping is strictly prohibited on this chat

[silver forge]

Nono, go UTF-256 to be future proof when the aliens take over

[proper fractal]

guys what happened to adobe shockwave flash player?

[obtuse fern]

long story short; i should have just used
cat hashes.txt | awk '{print $1 " " $2}' > fixed.txt

[carmine pecan]

yes awk can do everything

why use a shell when there's awk

[silver forge]

Adobe stopped. There are still tricks to get the old versions running.

[obtuse fern]

instead of trying to unfuck the long lines

[quasi ridge]

https://tenor.com/view/it-might-be-your-fault-kyle-south-park-it-could-be-your-fault-blame-gif-19597695

[carmine pecan]

UTF-512 for when the aliens take over the previous aliens

the only other thing i had to unfuck was windows truncating the lines

UFO-512

[proper fractal]

No one codes flash games anymore 🙁

[carmine pecan]

No I had an evil evil idea chat

so evil it's a menace to the world

[obtuse fern]

but I got it down to 0 files failed :D

[meager kernel]

Chat

Vim or Nano?

[obtuse fern]

just had to deal with pesky spaces

[proper fractal]

nano

[meager kernel]

What do you prefer

[proper fractal]

i like a challenge so nano

[carmine pecan]

Visual Studio Code

for coding

and EMACS for everything else

[meager kernel]

Ew

[obtuse fern]

all this bc i'm thinking of installing a fresh parrot VM instead of upgrading, so file transfers

[meager kernel]

Fair

[supple plume]

Vro VIM

[proper fractal]

actually before nano it was piko

[carmine pecan]

pico

yes

[meager kernel]

I use VS codium if I'm writing a big program
Vim when it's just small text editing or making minor changes

[proper fractal]

pico

sorry i suck at spelling

[carmine pecan]

atto was before pico

[obtuse fern]

fun fact: if you use vim mode in Obsidian, you can use the 'sed' commands (:%s/x/y/g)

[proper fractal]

30k lines of text one error but it looks good oh u misspelled something bruh

[meager kernel]

I like VS Codium rather than VS Code cause it's un-microsofted

[supple plume]

You can use a vim extension in codium btw

[meager kernel]

Ik

[obtuse fern]

honestly

[proper fractal]

sed helps so much

[obtuse fern]

i enjoy vim mode purely because I can do more stuff that i would otherwise need to install a plugin for

[proper fractal]

pushd /tmp for later

[sturdy thistle]

hello

[obtuse fern]

(there's a regex find/replace plugin, but it feels better in vim mode)

[carmine pecan]

Guys I am doing it right now, I am coding UTF-48

[obtuse fern]

I could probably write a whole thing on using obsidian atp with how much i've messed with it

mermaid diagrams are lowkey goated

[cerulean bloom]

UTF-48?!

thats like 57 hours behind me

[proper fractal]

https://mermaid.js.org/ this thing

[obtuse fern]

UTF-1

[meager kernel]

Has anyone here ever tried Spotify TUI?

[obtuse fern]

ye, it's in obsidian

[meager kernel]

I wanna try it but I'll like some reviews of it from others

[proper fractal]

I think obsidian is great

[supple plume]

Try WTF-69

[proper fractal]

use rot13 encoding more better bro

[carmine pecan]

I would read it Marcie

[proper fractal]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROT13

[obtuse fern]

https://help.obsidian.md/advanced-syntax#Diagram

[obtuse fern]

it's being integrated into stage 2 of phase 1 of my note rewriting; stage 1 is note condensing

[proper fractal]

ty this is really cool

[obtuse fern]

so instead of having 20 files for one module; i condense it down to a handful so 1/3 in most cases

[fair drift]

Taking notes is a skill that I envy people that have it

[carmine pecan]

ugh I had forgot how awful UTF is

[obtuse fern]

i'm using the subheading of modules as the delimiter; for example (Linux Fundamentals)

title - Introduction
# Linux Structure
# Linux Distributions
# Introduction to Shell

[carmine pecan]

good good

[fair drift]

That looks like godbolt decompiler

[carmine pecan]

it is

I code there

[obtuse fern]

fun fact you can recolor the points in a mermaid diagram :) I'm going to be unifying a LOT of stuff. Including my canvases that I use for the practice labs

I have a color schema I like; so I'll be sticking to that

[cerulean bloom]

soo.......... pink

[carmine pecan]

Yes I use pink theme

[obtuse fern]

:) at a glance I can see what is informative; what is a flag; and what is an exploit/escalation path

[fair drift]

Is it because you (for some reason) need to see the disassembly? Just wondering whether there's a specific reason honestly

[obtuse fern]

(this is my canvas for the Getting Started - Nibbles sections)

[carmine pecan]

This is great I will need to learn mermaid diagrams better

[obtuse fern]

this isn't a mermaid diagram

[silver forge]

I seriously doubt we would have designed the UTF as it is if we didn't have to build it on top of US-ASCII. Especially the ability to create illegal runes which break 99% of the parsers bothers me.

[carmine pecan]

I am a low-level nerd and I care about the assembly

being generated

and I will often optimize other's people code to avoid execution unit pressure

[obtuse fern]

I'm going to use this in tandem with a mermaid diagram on the main page that links to it to simplify the flow

[carmine pecan]

or atleast try

[fair drift]

Honestly same, I like doing reverse engineering challenges a lot

[carmine pecan]

I prefer binexp

[fair drift]

This looks great, but how much time does it take to create it?

[obtuse fern]

so instead of all the details it's simplified to:

1. Scan
2. Identify open ports

• Check for vulns on ports
• branch if needed

3. Exploit
4. Post-Exploit
5. Priv-esc?
6. final result
   ^ for the mermaid diagram

[obtuse fern]

i mean it's quick if you do it as you go

[carmine pecan]

The pain of wanting to optimize this but knowing premature optimization is death

[obtuse fern]

most of my coloring was done after the fact

canvas is a way for me to write out my process on a posterboard

[carmine pecan]

bah but it can't matter SIMD wouln't help because branchs? and I assume this is all cmovs in the assembly.

fuck it isn't

kill me

[fair drift]

Makes sense, so you document your boxes through these diagrams? The screenshot isn't mermaid, what do you use mermaids for

[obtuse fern]

simplified processes

mermaid is a way for me to step back from the low level, and diagram the process at a high-level

[carmine pecan]

also mermaid is a cool name

[obtuse fern]

so instead of all the details I can go from:
start -> scan -> vulnerability -> exploit -> priv-esc

it's a habit i'll need to grow into

[sturdy thistle]

what is thist

[fair drift]

So for each box you do, there's two diagrams in your Obsidian for it?

[obtuse fern]

well atm; no

in the future - yes

it allows me to link documentation together

[carmine pecan]

https://grokipedia.com/

[fair drift]

But why? Do you find it beneficial to take this extra step of creating a second, abstracted diagram? Sorry but I am just trying to figure out why that lengthy documentation makes sense

[obtuse fern]

this is just a scrape of wikipedia

[carmine pecan]

yes

used by grok

[fair drift]

No, Elon finds WikiPedia too left-leaning. So it's a modified scrape

[obtuse fern]

reporting; and helps me to make sure I understand the process and can describe it to a layperson

[carmine pecan]

can you describe it to your grandma?

[obtuse fern]

i.e. does mr c-suite understand that a -> b -> c

whereas canvas is more like technical documentation

[carmine pecan]

fuck this is better than wikipedia

This is great and this wasn't in wikipedia

[silver forge]

it is not a scrape. it's scrape + auto-editing by grok

[obtuse fern]

this is wholly for myself. I really don't expect too many people to use mermaid diags themselves

[carmine pecan]

Grok did good

[obtuse fern]

so it's not a rock, it's a boulder?

[carmine pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-slow-down-jethro-pioneers-gif-5521176

boulder

[silver forge]

yeah and many pages are actually much more informative and give a more balanced view on the subjects - it's higher quality in overall than wikipedia

[obtuse fern]

thanks Petals, i knew someone would get my ref

[obtuse fern]

yeah there's some subsects in Wikipedia that are... terrible to put it mildly

[carmine pecan]

higher quality on average

[obtuse fern]

i've seen some subreddit threads of people talking about how they had VALID EDITS with SOURCES get reverted

[carmine pecan]

Oh their article on Buddhism is still shit

[silver forge]

well, wikipedia allows people to "own" a page and patrol it for changes adding information they dislike. so many pages are extremely biased

[obtuse fern]

yeah, it sucks, it's also INCREDIBLY difficult in some instances to get a wikipedia page made. like for an influential person

or a micro-celeb type person

not a hollywood celeb or at the least like a c- or d-list celeb

[carmine pecan]

Grok who was MarcieLee

was an American hard rock and melodic rock vocalist, born male in South Bend, Indiana, renowned for a powerful tenor range that propelled her to prominence as lead singer of the 1980s bands King Kobra and Signal before fronting Unruly Child in the 1990s

the point of encyclopedias was that someone who doesn't have any skin in the game gathers and presents a balanced view on all the subjects. when wikipedia allows people who care too much about the subjects (separate topics and pages) to be masters of those pages, things go awry. some people have tried proving for decades that wikipedia is high quality because fact checking every sentence there yields true. no, that's just utter bollocks. on encylapedia what is not on pages matters more. you need to include all relevant information even if you disagree with it. and thus, wikipedia is a cess pool, always has been.

@obtuse fern this true?

[carmine pecan]

Grok said it is

[obtuse fern]

Grok Said it, so fuck it may just be true

[carmine pecan]

exactly

[cerulean bloom]

lol

[obtuse fern]

honestly my favorite subgenre of tweets is when people try so hard to get Grok to agree with them

[cerulean bloom]

I see you offer mentorship and tutoring

[obtuse fern]

been offering for well over a year; it goes beyond the hints and pushes in #modules :3 (it's also another reason why i'm rewriting/reformatting my notes)

[cerulean bloom]

but it paid

I don't have money

[obtuse fern]

MarcieLee taught me how to build my own nuclear weapons and now I own the world 10/10

I did the ctps path, I have just final lab undone. knowing I should focus on something for couple straight days probably is not very enticing. lol

Laffer

[cerulean bloom]

I just want to ask your opinion on something: does the CPTS path teach you the things you need to know to pass the exam?

[silver forge]

Oh yes it does. Every single thing you need.

[cerulean bloom]

did you take the CPTS?

[silver forge]

I have been too lazy to take the test. Maybe one day.

[carmine pecan]

impetor is the creator of CPTS this is why his role is purple

gonna be so real with you; don't worry about getting EVERYTHING in AEN - focus on a path forward first, any extraneous flags that are outside the main path will be asked. Just try and capture flags that would be in the 'usual suspect' spots (i.e. C:/users/username/desktop/flag, C:/users/administrator/flag.txt, /home/user/flag.txt, /root/root.txt)
