general

[lime trout]

theres alot that goes into it

[upbeat tangle]

@frigid mountain my biggest dream is to win the euro jackpot and never have to cary about bills every again

[austere sinew]

It’s not simple, but it would definitely benefit the company in the long run

[frigid mountain]

Good one! Nothing like abundance to enhance imagination! I hope you win!

[dusky jacinth]

Like I love supporting the idea of ensuring everyone has a fair chance at trying

[fiery copper]

Ye I realise, I just came with the idea because it will bring more customers and also help a lot of people and it would benefit both the company and the customer

[supple plume]

I can imagine that as a developer, is not that insane to implement

[cerulean bloom]

if that ever happens, I'm gonna annoy HTB so much lol

[frigid mountain]

what's the first thing you would buy? Big purchase!

[dusky jacinth]

But there are so many other factors involved in operating a services business

[upbeat tangle]

i would buy my freedom, that is priceless

[undone fossil]

wait what are we talking about? (the pricing stuff)

[cerulean bloom]

who had it in the first place

[lime trout]

atleast personally, im more for doing student pricing on more products

since people are broke world-wide

[dusky jacinth]

regional

[keen portal]

the US jackpot is over $1.6B I think... but thats like too much money to win

[cerulean bloom]

YESSSSSSSSSS

now this

is good

[austere sinew]

Debating on regional pricing

[cerulean bloom]

[undone fossil]

ohhhh

[frigid mountain]

more specific? Are you in prison?

[dusky jacinth]

Servers be expensive

[undone fossil]

Yeah wouldn't work very well, could maybe work for certs since you can justify id verification or something?

[austere sinew]

Im for it saying operational costs are taken into account they can just make less of a profit- I also suggested id verification lol

[undone fossil]

my understanding is that most of the "consumer" side is a loss lead anyways

[lime trout]

the core is it still costs the same regardless of location to provide tbh

[undone fossil]

yeah

[dusky jacinth]

ID verification can eat rocks

I seriously hope that is never implemented

[undone fossil]

ID verification has its place

[austere sinew]

Yeah but I’m sure it’s not a small profit made on top of that

[undone fossil]

but not for something like this

[supple plume]

Extra servers are not necessary to implement regional prices

[dusky jacinth]

No

[lime trout]

i have no idea of the numbers tbh

[dusky jacinth]

Just the cost of servers as a whole

they be expensive

[lime trout]

it would be tbh

[undone fossil]

I doubt it would be worth the effort tbh

[dusky jacinth]

someone has to pay for them

[lime trout]

cause lower prices = more users in region

[upbeat tangle]

Im in the prison of society, the rat race. the constant grind month to month on a schedule just to pay idiotic taxes and fees for things that you think you own but not really. you rent your house from the bank or the government depending on the situation of payment. mortgage? property tax?. With enough money on my back, i no longer have to grind to cover the basics. I can work WHEN I WANT, not WHEN I NEED. that is freedom

[lime trout]

so more servers to support the increase

[undone fossil]

its a case of would need numbers sadly

but perhaps the loss is worth the lead

¯_(ツ)_/¯

dunno

[supple plume]

Hire me and I'll demonstrate how is not necessary

[dusky jacinth]

But it could also be detrimental to the platform

[lime trout]

more people = more resources used

[dusky jacinth]

kinda like a AAA game shipping in the most god awful state

[frigid mountain]

Thanks for the answer. It's a great one! I sympathize.

[undone fossil]

i mean consumers aren't the main source of income

[cerulean bloom]

it would also be that if you decrease it by like $5 for example, you won't have an influx or almost any difference, you'd just be getting a loss (a small loss)
you'd have to decrease by some amount

[dusky jacinth]

if they lower prices they increase user availability

if there are more users they need to provide more resources to accomodate

[frigid mountain]

all the dnb heads in the chat

https://youtu.be/TB6r4dpHAsQ?si=CqA5iwEjqHMgGtcn

[undone fossil]

ayo?

[dusky jacinth]

resources that they aren't getting funds for because of regional pricing

Which then impacts all users because their time with the platform is tainted due to poor performance

its a whole cycle

[undone fossil]

@frigid mountain you a fan of dj hixxy?

their older stuff mainly

[austere sinew]

This sounds like something I’d make when I was 13 in my dj phase

[lime trout]

eh at the end of day its a business decison

its been floated a couple times

[upbeat tangle]

Its nice to hear someone sympathize for a change. most people cant even grasp my thought process around those things. im just a tinfoil hatter

[lime trout]

but thats alli can really say

[cerulean bloom]

makes sense, people can bring it up

[frigid mountain]

i know! It's dope right?!

[cerulean bloom]

at the end of the day, you really side with the place that benefits you

[undone fossil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wpifScnTn0

more happy hardcore but

[cerulean bloom]

I'd like a student discount, it benefits me
I don't want regional pricing, it is unfair for me
🤷

[frigid mountain]

i've heard some but not enough to know. I am honestly mostly into modern melodic and liquid dnb. I like to get down to some classic jungle too tho

[meager kernel]

Reinstalling arch

[undone fossil]

ooo

[meager kernel]

Wish me luck

[frigid mountain]

@undone fossil Also modern rollers!

[young glen]

Good luck with reinstalling Arch

[fiery copper]

I dont see how it would be unfair to you if you live in a richer country with higher wages

[dusky jacinth]

Don't forget nm

[cerulean bloom]

I am not rich

[dusky jacinth]

This is not how that works

You should stop arguing that point

[cerulean bloom]

I might not even be in middle class

[frigid mountain]

oh yeah this is fun! It is more hardcore. 4x4 beats not syncopated dnb rhythm

[cerulean bloom]

I HAVE TO PAY FOR MY OWN CERTS

[dusky jacinth]

There is a lot of relativity involved

[undone fossil]

again unrelated genre (hardstyle) but this has been in my top played for 3 years straight now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZeycopJItg

[fiery copper]

Ye but people in other countries are even poorer

[dusky jacinth]

a Rich country does not make rich citizens

[undone fossil]

[cerulean bloom]

cost of living is higher

[scenic maple]

we are all poor where we live

pls trust

[frigid mountain]

@undone fossil Not quite fast enough for hardcore. I'd call it something like uptempo vocal trance

[cerulean bloom]

yeah

[upbeat tangle]

GDP is inflated by the haves and not by the have nots (like us)

[dusky jacinth]

Exactly

[undone fossil]

mmmmyeah true

[dusky jacinth]

Which is why its a poor business model to base regional pricing on GDP

[frigid mountain]

oh that breakdown section is more happy harcore-ish though

[cerulean bloom]

living in the US is not the same living in romania

[frigid mountain]

I love categories

[dusky jacinth]

if everyone is still broke

[cerulean bloom]

the price of everything I mean

[frigid mountain]

@undone fossil I geek out over shit like this https://music.ishkur.com/

[fiery copper]

And? You end up earning more, saving more by default

[undone fossil]

yooo this is cool

[dusky jacinth]

No

Mario

that is absolutely not how that works

[cerulean bloom]

from what I hear, people with even 5 digit salaries in the US are having a hard time living

[dusky jacinth]

everything is relative dude

[dusky jacinth]

Yes

[cerulean bloom]

I'm sure in other countries, 5 digit salaries would be crazy good

[frigid mountain]

it was originally a flash site in the 90s and he redid it. Canadian raver. Just a fan of music and probably autistic

[fiery copper]

Compare average salary in each country and youll see that

[cerulean bloom]

but in the US, it isn't

[dusky jacinth]

you need to be making 90K as a single income to live comfortably

[undone fossil]

reminded me that eurotrance exists

baller

[lime trout]

Average is not a great metric on the country level

[dusky jacinth]

Yes but their cost of living is lower

our cost of living is higher

[lime trout]

in some places in the US, the poverty line is >120k/year

[upbeat tangle]

The model of our economy rewards leeches and roaches, i have tested this myself by making a brokerage account on the financial market and just selling promises (options) and raking in money doing nothing productive

[lime trout]

some places its like $30k/yr

[cerulean bloom]

Elon Musk has more money than 50% of the bottom half of US people to combined

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah if you wanna get rich? Learn how to play the stock market in your favor

[fiery copper]

Some places are under 10k/year

[undone fossil]

more assets*

big distinction

[cerulean bloom]

living costs

[lime trout]

it varies within the country, makes the averages not really comparable

[cerulean bloom]

that is a key difference

[lime trout]

but 10k/year wont get you anywhere within the US as a whole

[dusky jacinth]

nope

you can kick rocks for 10K

[lime trout]

cheapest your really gonna find for rent is like, $750/month in the middle of nowhere

[cerulean bloom]

apparently, you need at least 50K in Seoul to be good

like livable

[lime trout]

$1200+ in a city with jobs

• car payments

[upbeat tangle]

right now im basically making 1/9th of my monthly income doing nothing on the market, just reinvesting that fugazi back into the market and increasing the income. Its laughable

[frigid mountain]

Can you imagine the undertaking this would be for one person?! Like he assembled all the copy written, the samples, did the UI, etc

[keen portal]

thats if you are healthy, just don't get sick

[undone fossil]

honestly yeah mad respect

[fiery copper]

I live monthly on 500-600$ a month, rent and bills included

[lime trout]

or an accident

[undone fossil]

i back your autism claim

[frigid mountain]

I'm no dr. ymmv

[cerulean bloom]

yeah, that won't be possible in the U.S.

[frigid mountain]

He had this other site called Ishkur's Guide to Rave Culture and it was just a satirical lambasting of various rave culture stereotypes

it was hilarious when I was a teenager

[lime trout]

which using PPP is roughly 40k/yr equiv

[frigid mountain]

but also informative because I'm from middle of nowhere Southern US and only saw raves on TV and in movies

[fiery copper]

Lower than that but I suppose

[upbeat tangle]

@dusky jacinth Now, the richest people do exactly what im doing but they got a massive amount of money to leverage the same methods. They earn more then they could ever spend so they have to constantly purchase new assets to store their wealth in. Which is why they own everything and we own nothing. And since they compete with eachother to buy existing assets, prises just go up and up

[undone fossil]

I've ended up pavlov'ing myself into having certain genres of music mean work time

i.e. chill breakcore or the borderlands 3 OST

[cerulean bloom]

apparently, I think we live on $500 on rent + bills for our house only

[undone fossil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JneumcgEq6o e.g. i hear this -> i work

[cerulean bloom]

cuz we live in a cheap, small apartment that is not in good shape lol

[undone fossil]

its too powerful

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah its just a game of the rich get richer

[cerulean bloom]

also, we are a 4 person household

[undone fossil]

you ever considered festivals and such?

[dusky jacinth]

Best bet is to learn how they are playing the game

then do that

[fiery copper]

I live in a decent 2-room apartment with a roommate

[dusky jacinth]

they don't play faire

[undone fossil]

yup worldwide issue tbh

[dusky jacinth]

and they leverage the funds they have very well

[cerulean bloom]

we have a family lol
4 people, so

[dusky jacinth]

You may never make as much money as them, but you will certainly do well financially

[upbeat tangle]

And anytime someone tries to explain the problem in some form and offer any form of solution, like taxing wealth and not income. The lobbyists come out of the woodwork to shut down those ideas immidietly

[undone fossil]

there's competition on the micro-scale, i.e. the people you went to high school with, but realistically if you're working a job for >90% (pulled that number out of my ass) its about all the competition you'll have

[fiery copper]

Ye taxing people higher for being poor is messed up

[cerulean bloom]

yeah, no, that is not good lol

[upbeat tangle]

Our financial system has allowed corporate monoliths like Apple, Google and so on to just swell beyond our wildest imaginations, they are so massive they they basically own the world

I miss the days of the mom and pop shops being the go-to for something

Passionate local businesses

Now the answer to everything is just "Google it"

[dusky jacinth]

Yeah isn't that funny

[meager kernel]

God Arch is beautiful

[dusky jacinth]

Did you forget nm?

[undone fossil]

but does it sound good?

[meager kernel]

wdym by nm?

[dusky jacinth]

Network manager

[meager kernel]

oh i have it

the question is

[dusky jacinth]

personally I just use the nmtui

[meager kernel]

will bluetooth work

[undone fossil]

[meager kernel]

cause i have my headphones

[dusky jacinth]

did you install the package?

[meager kernel]

i did enable the bluetooth thing in arch install

[dusky jacinth]

okay okay

[meager kernel]

i left my headphones downstairs

[dusky jacinth]

you enabled it, or you installed the package when you first booted?

[meager kernel]

one sec

[undone fossil]

@frigid mountain lmfao this is gold

[meager kernel]

enabled

during arch install

[dusky jacinth]

I believe there is a package that needs to be installed. LMK if I am wrong

[upbeat tangle]

@undone fossil Along with that genre came the "Eurodisco"

[meager kernel]

Im using an external bluetooth dongol cause my motherboard doesnt have one in built

[supple plume]

Shut up already

[meager kernel]

will it work?

[dusky jacinth]

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bluetooth

[meager kernel]

@supple plume how do you use bluetooth on arch

[upbeat tangle]

@undone fossil The 90s was PEAK society

[dusky jacinth]

You gotta install the package brodie

[undone fossil]

wonder what it has to say about breakcore

[dusky jacinth]

read the docs

[meager kernel]

wait how do you take screenshot on arch?

[meager kernel]

aight

[supple plume]

Do you know pacman?

[supple plume]

Omg

[dusky jacinth]

its pulseaudio-bluetooth I think

[meager kernel]

yes ofc

[supple plume]

No you don't

[undone fossil]

based

[meager kernel]

i used pacman

to get here

[dusky jacinth]

not the RTFM emoji

[meager kernel]

[upbeat tangle]

@undone fossil SEE. 90s was peak society

[undone fossil]

agreed

[meager kernel]

wait i have bluetooth enabled

lets go

[undone fossil]

partially sad i wasnt there for it, 80s/90s were the golden age of many of my interests

then again i have much easier access to those things nowadays so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

double edged i guess

[frigid mountain]

💯

[meager kernel]

i do need a new mouse, this one's scrollwheel broke

[green kite]

Didn’t know mice had scrollwheels

[upbeat tangle]

@undone fossil I was a kid in the 90s and it has been an honour growing up alongside the internet you know. To see its evolution from a seed into something beautiful, which unfortunately has been warped and twisted up until todays monstrosity

[frigid mountain]

you win some. you lose some.

[upbeat tangle]

I remember the day when some genius started indexing the web on some of the very first search engines like AltaVista

[green kite]

Thanks for the visual confirmation

So the left and right ear have similar functionality?

[undone fossil]

sorry guys ram prices going up, i need more mouse mice images

[frigid mountain]

altavista was top tier search for a while

[upbeat tangle]

That shit made me scared when i was 8 years old

I learned very early that some people are beyond salvation.... i saw pictures of people doing very bad stuff to animals and it was available in just one click, call that the wild west

[frigid mountain]

i was probably closer to 10-12. It just made things so much more usable. When I was in HS there was a field trip that me and a couple others from a class I was in got picked to go on. It was a competition. You were given a list of like 20 questions and an hour to research and answer them on the internet. Stuff like what's the average weight and height of an african elephant etc. I was picked because I knew how to optimize search terms the best. I think my group came in 2nd.

[upbeat tangle]

So you mastered SEO early on huh 😉

[frigid mountain]

yep

necessity is the mother of invention

[upbeat tangle]

It just depends on how you approach mindset

Like i was 8, i dont know if something will exist on the internet or not so i dont even try.

But if you come in with the assumption that it SHOULD exist, you will try harder to find it

Or in your case, it HAS to exist because i need to win

[supple plume]

Nothing matters vro we will cease to exist at some point

[meager kernel]

yes

what the fuck

[devout sail]

cant even log in

[meager kernel]

so far yes

[devout sail]

Oh no Archie ID is not set

[molten bobcat]

device id is a new thing

[meager kernel]

the initial disk partition stuff was hard cause i had to mount the disk manually

[devout sail]

Yep i remember doing it once

[meager kernel]

so as to not ruin my windows partition

[molten bobcat]

TF you mean there's a json body value named hint lmao

[devout sail]

Then deleted it asap

[devout sail]

Probably for toast on frontend

Or whatever that popup is called to show error

[meager kernel]

this is the last machines

[devout sail]

Ayy nice
I'm not missing anything xD

Just that last one is pending

[meager kernel]

I havent done any HTB in quite a while

once exams are over i'll grind

[devout sail]

Every week you say that

How long is it gonna last

[meager kernel]

not my fault my college takes so many exams

[scenic maple]

every week his exams arent over

[meager kernel]

not my fault

[molten bobcat]

You're the toast on the front end

[devout sail]

My ex used to have this issue

[scenic maple]

its true

[devout sail]

Don't write exam
Hack and pass yourself

[scenic maple]

paint advises everyone to drop out of college

[meager kernel]

btw i got my internal marks
i did end up getting rewarded for hacking the college website
i got 35+ out of 40 in every subject

[devout sail]

What was the reward

[meager kernel]

increased marks

[devout sail]

That's bad

[meager kernel]

thats the reward i got

[scenic maple]

take notes

[devout sail]

Maybe u just did well enough and got 35+

[molten bobcat]

Amazing screenshot actually

[meager kernel]

i was otherwise failing in my subjects cause my attendance was 2% and i hadnt submitted any assignments and i failed in my internal exams

i ended up getting the best marks in the batch

cause i hacked the website and reported it

[scenic maple]

drop out while ya can

[devout sail]

Remember you from 3 months ago 💀?

[scenic maple]

what was the vulnerability tho

[devout sail]

Weak creds

[meager kernel]

outdated joomla dashboard

[scenic maple]

lmao

classic

[meager kernel]

its the same as in Devvortex HTB machine

literally the same

[molten bobcat]

Paint would recommend I go to college purely for the rush of dropping out

[meager kernel]

THE EXACT SAME

[devout sail]

They copied HTB?

Sue them

[scenic maple]

maybe machines are based on irl stuff actually

[meager kernel]

I used the same CVE

[scenic maple]

paint is right

[meager kernel]

got admin creds (i still have them)

[scenic maple]

he is omni for a reason

[meager kernel]

i was able to execute on the backend

[devout sail]

But you did it without permission

[meager kernel]

and enumerate everything

[meager kernel]

but i reported it

and ended up getting rewarded

[scenic maple]

u can still go to jail

[meager kernel]

saved my whole semester

[scenic maple]

for doing that

[devout sail]

Yeah

[devout sail]

We wouldn't even know for months

[meager kernel]

atleast i wont be a failure of semester 🙏

atleast i can say in jail that i passed my semester

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

[meager kernel]

i got the reward today

top most marks in every subject

[supple plume]

Good

[meager kernel]

my GPA is fixed pretty much now

[scenic maple]

the reward was marks?

thats crazy

i would have taken money

[meager kernel]

college doesnt give money

unfortunately

[supple plume]

Now you run in arch you hack your school everything looks good for you

[meager kernel]

its native

[austere sinew]

[supple plume]

Sometimes meaning for some games

[meager kernel]

oh yea i do know that

[austere sinew]

I have no clue but that is something I intend on avoiding

[meager kernel]

ill try it out later

[untold fiber]

just two brain cells alternating back and forth

[scenic maple]

dang it can handle moving parts 😩

[untold fiber]

and I told her that as we walked into a train station

[molten bobcat]

Heya Ryan

I am the chicken master

[austere sinew]

okay well

YOU MET ME

WHEN I WAS TIRED

AND TRAVELLED

[scenic maple]

anyone who claims to be a chicken master is no true chicken master

[austere sinew]

JERK

[untold fiber]

you were the same even well rested

[molten bobcat]

I gave chicken wisdom

[austere sinew]

AT LEAST I IRON MY CLOTHES

YOU DONT

[rocky tartan]

what is a chicken ?

[untold fiber]

what does this mean

[untold fiber]

nobody irons jeans

[austere sinew]

I told cloud you made fun of my chicken

[scenic maple]

so ryan doesnt iron cloths

[molten bobcat]

I helped her with cooking

[austere sinew]

YES THEY DO

[austere sinew]

cloud proceeded to destroy my chicken

[untold fiber]

having pleated jeans is like negative rizz

[untold fiber]

good job cloud

[molten bobcat]

Honey you, you destroyed the chicken

I didn't do anything

[scenic maple]

you have chickens as in a farmer?

[untold fiber]

I had to make chikken tikka masala to show her what cooking actually looks like

[austere sinew]

you have no rizz at all

anyways

[untold fiber]

okay

[austere sinew]

if anyone gets within 5 meters of you

[untold fiber]

[austere sinew]

They're fighting over the title

[untold fiber]

I have to hold back on my staff account

[austere sinew]

yeah yeah whatever you say

[green kite]

Should’ve asked for Angela @austere sinew

[molten bobcat]

I can't tell if this is deeply romantic or psychotic

[untold fiber]

i could threaten to pull out receipts

[molten bobcat]

Help

[austere sinew]

[austere sinew]

OKAY FINE YOU WIN

i feel so dumb. i was wondering why kali was running sluggish on vmware and figured out i have to turn off Hyper-V and CPU Integrity in Windows. BOOM working flawlessly. I also figured out how to get Mullvad running through kali on the VM seperate from my host which also has VPN running

[lofty warren]

[olive wigeon]

' or 1=1

[undone fossil]

' or 1

[olive wigeon]

haha

[devout sail]

I didn't know about that.
I thought hyperV only affect the wsl 💀

[scenic maple]

those sqli never work irl

[undone fossil]

they do when there's sqli

[devout sail]

It does

[olive wigeon]

i typed just that into grok and it said the same thing lol

[devout sail]

Just test any pak gov site

[scenic maple]

[undone fossil]

now guys dont scrape s3 buckets for .net applications to find easily decompilable webapp source

[scenic maple]

idk tbh i tried govt vdps but what i have seen simple bugs rarely occur altho they been existing for 4 years tho

[undone fossil]

that would be unethical i think

[devout sail]

Or edu site, i saw the most basic auth bypass working on them

[scenic maple]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kat-kitty-kitten-evil-gif-10545349572153573100

[scenic maple]

what was the bypass?

[devout sail]

That ' or 1= ..

[scenic maple]

lmao

[devout sail]

Literally on the login page

It's either not in use or they don't bother updating

[scenic maple]

hmm atleast it keeps the good guys out

[frosty bane]

[lofty warren]

[meager kernel]

Do people even use Ubuntu nowadays?

Just wondering

[scenic maple]

on servers

[meager kernel]

Fair enough

[olive wigeon]

what is usually the standard nowadays?

[civic lance]

@meager kernel Have u heard about Anna archive spotify scrap?

[olive wigeon]

i always wondered where the media comes for private trackers or irc. figured it was always zero day guys just having fun scraping db's

300 terabtyes is a good ammount of music tho.. spotify also has music videos now. it seems like they purchased rights now that MTV is no longer a thing

[vivid flower]

Im glad it exists, it lowers barrier to entry to find music as opposed to it being gatekept by private trackers

Big ethics win

[olive wigeon]

yeah if you werent in the crowd in the very early days of irc or oink you pretty much have to know someone personally or are really good at begging lol

[molten bobcat]

Today is

Shaping up to be nice

[civic lance]

Wont they get attacked?

Have a target on their backs now?

Even bigger one by the music industry

[molten bobcat]

Playing fallout

[olive wigeon]

they basically give the music away for free without paying the artist anyways lol doubt they care

[vivid flower]

This

[civic lance]

But they greedy

[vivid flower]

Maybe but its too late people are already sharing it via torrents

[civic lance]

They need membership money

[olive wigeon]

Pandora started from a group of rippers on irc who had a collection nobody can change my mind lol

[civic lance]

All that music out in the wild now

[vivid flower]

My favorite irc group like that is called the "Literati" and they scan books for library genesis

[maiden anvil]

which one

[vivid flower]

All that music you can just rip from youtube with yt-dlp anyway

[cedar iris]

guys can someone help me with a ctf ??

[olive wigeon]

there are still underground hip hop, vinyl only rock albums, rare electronic music especially the deeper side of dubstep / drum & bass that spotify does not have that gets shared through private trackers. i say its more about having stuff that nobody has that keeps the underground p2p world afloat. especially when you look at PtP and how many VHS only or TV only rips are there

nobody cares about ripping the new taylor swift thats a facade or just a way to get upload lol

[vivid flower]

Truke

I didnt get whamed this year

they scraped netflix

[molten bobcat]

That's what my Plex is for

[civic lance]

Plex?

[molten bobcat]

I host my own media server

[civic lance]

How does it work

[molten bobcat]

I have the media files on my computer and stream it via my network

[civic lance]

Cause Im looking at plex rn

and it mentions streaming from (Popular streaming serivces)

[vivid flower]

Jellyfin is also good for that

[molten bobcat]

Iirc it can link in to existing services as well

[vivid flower]

Less bloat

[prisma quail]

merry xmas evirybody

[civic lance]

Im new to linux, and tryna setup jellyfin thru linux for the first time 😭

Do I need a docker

[molten bobcat]

Plex is available on windows

[civic lance]

I've never touched a docker before

[vivid flower]

Docker makes it easy yeah

Its easy if you have something like truenas or a synology server

If you have a raspberry pi you may as well just use kodi

[civic lance]

I just have a laptop running linux

[molten bobcat]

I have GPU assisted encoding and decoding

Yeehaw

FFMPEG

[molten bobcat]

I barely had to configure anything

Got all me favorite shows

[untold fiber]

docker is our lord and savior

[civic lance]

Ik it has something to do with container

Im just new

[molten bobcat]

Docker is a container hoster yeh

Would the word be hypervisor?

[untold fiber]

noi

[molten bobcat]

Containerization isn't something I have looked into often

[untold fiber]

docker itself is literally a containerization backend

but then there is the docker tooling and docker compose etc etc for the management of containers and orchestration which is technically a seperate thing than the container engine

[meager kernel]

Yes heard today

[molten bobcat]

Right

[acoustic pelican]

im doing

google cybersecurtiy on coursera

i will get price % for comptia security+

LOL

imagine

[young glen]

Nice

[acoustic pelican]

but i will be honest it's boring

but i made an oath to god , to take IT seriously

so i gotta stay for 8 hours 🙁

everyday till i get a job

I am trying to mimic real job schedule, by learning 8 hours per day 🙁

[heavy oak]

That's something to get into during the Cloud Security/Maldev journey imo

[acoustic pelican]

but that way will help me to land a job within 2 months

[olive wigeon]

i did that course its really good at going over the bare basics but doesnt go in depth by any mean. i will admit it does help as a starting ground knowing nothing about cybersecurity

[cerulean bloom]

ryan, how's US?

[untold fiber]

cold

covered in snow

[olive wigeon]

docker came clutch for scanning my plex server for active movie posters that i chose and am currently using and downloading them to a folder in case meta data resets on me again and i have to catalog 2000 movies lol

[austere sinew]

Guys i'm so patriotic god save the king i just had the best fish and chips i have ever had the pleasure of feasting upon in my 21 years of existence

[olive wigeon]

8 hours is a bit much, i would suggest during the linux section when learning permissions to actually go into linux and mess around by creating, removing directories and navigating in general

[cerulean bloom]

lol

[minor heart]

gm

[olive wigeon]

60% of it is framework and knowing guidelines companies take to strategically react during an attack. i did like the sql part though it really clicked for me how a database works on the back end. even though its simple navigation of a database its a great start

[civic lance]

Movies

Anime

[dusky jacinth]

Honestly it was a really weird attack, but eventually I got it

What are you struggling with when installing it?

[civic lance]

I keep getting this error

when booting it up

Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Internal.Host: Hosting failed to start

But Im on linux.....

[meager kernel]

Alright my linux crashed for the first time for some unknown reason

[proper fractal]

It's probably a user error thing

[civic lance]

it's always the end user

[meager kernel]

I switched audio input and my whole OS froze

[dusky jacinth]

Time to learn pivoting

[meager kernel]

How is that my mistake

[proper fractal]

pulseaudio --system

[civic lance]

Probably runned some other command prior

[dusky jacinth]

If it makes you feel better the first time I installed Arch I accidentally deleted my boot loader

[meager kernel]

No
I had a game running along with discord to play with friends

[proper fractal]

It was hacks

[frozen zinc]

you are using Arch so it was to be your mistake 100%

[proper fractal]

He's hacking mom

[meager kernel]

such a helpful community

[proper fractal]

MOM HES HACKING!

[meager kernel]

well restarting did fix it

so thats good

[proper fractal]

He's scanning your ports he's parsing your site he's going to find out if your syntax is right

SQL clause is coming to town

[tender jay]

I tend to forget it from time to time whilst pulling my hairs out of my head

[frozen zinc]

The only time i broke my Arch was bcs i use pacman with --force, in almost three years always rock solid. Only had to deal with minor issues with configuration files when they were updated

[proper fractal]

The only time that I broke Arch was when I installed it on a PS3

[acoustic pelican]

dunno

but I would not survive or adapt in the US

it's a very cold place

dunno about all states

but Europe is a little bit warmer , or maybe dunno, people seem to be more friendly online from the US, while EU are more reserved but dunno

[proper fractal]

I tried installing Temple OS on a PS3 but the environment just didn't agree

I hear you can run Windows on a PS2 now

[potent gull]

did someone say arch, surely you aren't running Arch and labs? or perhaps you are...

[scenic maple]

u mean this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArchLabs

[proper fractal]

I think my text to speech is broken

[potent gull]

sup golum.
nah, I was just curious if whomever is using arch was using it while attempting labs.

i use arch

[proper fractal]

Btw

[frozen zinc]

did you installed on the PS3?

[scenic maple]

well i do all my stuff on it

[proper fractal]

No however I do have Debian running on an Xbox 360

[frozen zinc]

for everything

[potent gull]

well i do not. I use athena (arch based) but my daily is arch

[proper fractal]

Sir you can use userland on Android and run graphical arch

[frozen zinc]

flatpak is better than snap 😛

[dusky jacinth]

CDSA

[potent gull]

[proper fractal]

Sec+

[dusky jacinth]

I mean what is it you wanna do in cybersec?

You wanna do defense or offense?

[potent gull]

what you want me to switch it back to ASCII

[scenic maple]

CDSA btw

[dusky jacinth]

Thank you

[fiery copper]

Defense because its the easier starting point

[potent gull]

or should I have it some random wifu

[dusky jacinth]

boooo

no jk

[scenic maple]

never do what people online tell you to do

[proper fractal]

I want to make video games you better learn csharp lad

[dusky jacinth]

yeah I mean CJCA is good

[scenic maple]

do what you want to do

[dusky jacinth]

CDSA is good

Sec + is alright

its a good one for the resume

[frozen zinc]

what if i want to do what i asked you in DMs?

[potent gull]

perhaps I should make it santa

[scenic maple]

pick a game engine and take classes of that game engine
like https://learn.unity.com/

I was thinking about doing microsoft credentials and add them as mini projects

I got to get on my computer it is nearly impossible to read a chat on mobile I don't understand how people can do discord mobile

[frozen zinc]

fair

[dusky jacinth]

I mean they can get you credibility

[potent gull]

come on drop the repo ahaha

[meager kernel]

I'm facing another problem now

[scenic maple]

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src

[meager kernel]

Arch linux just stops detecting my bluetooth headphones audio

And the entire audio driver stops working

It doesn't detect any device

[upbeat tangle]

[proper fractal]

I think you were looking for the Alpine Linux repo

[frozen zinc]

(he has a repo)🤫

[muted olive]

https://tenor.com/bQTHO.gif

[scenic maple]

apple is based on freebsd

so its 100% apples source code

i neevr said i will give it full did i

[proper fractal]

Wait I thought it was running Darwin

[upbeat tangle]

so iOS is based on freebsd or Darwin

[proper fractal]

We must ask an Apple genius

I'm sure that they would be able to consolidate the answer

[upbeat tangle]

How could a vegetable answer this question?!

[proper fractal]

I do not recall

[upbeat tangle]

or it fruit a peanut? i forgot..

[dusky jacinth]

Isn't iOS based on a fork of liek FreeBSD 2?

maybe that's Mac

[frozen zinc]

the Mitre signatures are gone

what is this btw?
https://github.com/SleepTheGod/iPhone-SSH-Backdoor

[proper fractal]

idk but it has 225 stars

[upbeat tangle]

i wonder if i could jailbreak my old iphone 6s with that

[frozen zinc]

damn

[proper fractal]

#include <stdio.h>

    sprintf(final_cmd, "%s%s %s", cmd, key, value);
    system(final_cmd);
    free(final_cmd);
    return 0;
}

I would look into this

[potent gull]

the hyprland community also shamed my mask so now I can be boring like the rest of the world

[scenic maple]

hyprland is unstable

[proper fractal]

I wish i could afford a iphone to test on but I can't afford a honda in my pocket

[upbeat tangle]

@proper fractal maybe you can get one from a thriftshop

[proper fractal]

na for apple to approve a bug it has to be on the lastest firmware

[potent gull]

haven't had one unstable moment that lasted for any meaningful amount of time

[scenic maple]

just because you didnt have issues doesnt mean its stable

[upbeat tangle]

ahaaa so you want to do with for a bug bounty
