shits satisfying lmao
well people dislike being unfairly disadvantage in a competitive setting
I'd love for some garlic bread
asff
yeah but serverside anti cheat is a better alternative
it needs both
sleepy@peakbian:~$ telnet 10.129.64.93 21
Trying 10.129.64.93...
Connected to 10.129.64.93.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.3)
hmm
server can't see what the client is doing all tge time
yeah but they could validate traffic and check for unusual behavior
you can also try anonymous logon
First and foremost you should realize that you're connected to the host already
Idk I think for multiplayer games it's justifiable, it really can tick you off when you've invested a lot of time in a game when cheaters aren't defended against/punished at all, single player no, I think you should let people cheat as much as they want, it can even help maintain some longevity, I love seeing videos discussing hacks/glitches for games, or how they use exploits for speedrunning, more than normal gameplay even
yea
most people here use windows
Is that a fact ? Curious fr
Skyrim
I mean if here refers to earth
i use Debian
Sure
for their host os*
Dual boot but daily driver is linux. Settled into pop os on my main machine
i eat Debian?
But yeah the fog of war thing is super easy (I've heard) to exploit
popos?
hi
I use windows
Like a step below bazzite. Still allows me to do work stuff and game with a certain amount of fenangling when I have to.
i'd probably main arch + hyprland dualboot but i cba getting another drive in my box
my second nvme slot is under my gpu and that's a ceebs
Its from system76
id be using cachy for games
or in general
its just arch + all of clear linux's optimizations and i have an intel cpu
frog of war*
i really don't like gnome
Why does the lightsaber handle bend like that bro
idk i just noticed

Cachy is nice, but I went with pop os cause it has some good compatibility for nvidia out of box. I'd like to switch over to AMD at some point but I spent a hefty chunk of change on an intel system back during covid
Use the force Robin
I'm okay with gnome
That's fair. I just recently built a new box (like two weeks ago) and i went for a 9070xt and an intel ultra 9
i ordered 64gigs ddr5 before rammagedon so my box has skyrocketed in value 
also can anyone check i didnt just fuck this bash script, im not fucked to setup a new kali vm to test it but its just a sestup script
dude i had my main payload development vm which has 16 gigs of ram assigned to open while playing cs with a bunch of brave tabs open and 0 performance loss
Same for mine
this bitch watercooled tool
I use mine for a Plex server
Stop flexing before I steal that setup lol
Lmao
I'm gonna make my old box a proxmox lab for malware analysis
cos rn im just abusing any.run 💀
I liked it on old kali but it just feels too laptop-y
maybe it's just the windows user in me but i really like cinnamon or kde. or hyprland cos twm are sick
wait guys, is the openvpn config file for all the labs same?
i hae done like 5 labs now and i can use the same file to connect to the labs? why did i think each lab has its own vpn config file
KDE is really nice. I did enjoy it when I gave it a whirl in a VM. I messed with Mint for a bit, but didn't enjoy it much. Plus I installed it on my work laptop and quickly realized I shouldn't have tested it at work as I was stuck configuring it for the apps I needed to get my job done during my shift. lmao That was a day
i was on kde, kde looks unfinished and unpolished when u compare it to gnome
Hyperland is wonderful. I like it aesthetically.
who can help me with setuping dinit here
I slapped arch with hyperland on my laptop over the weekend. Its pretty neat 
I think for a work situation mint is good tho, so reliable.
who can help me with dinit
hows your 1day+ compile time whenever you brick your box and need to set it up again
is that a thinkpad
it's gentoo of course it is
IS THAT THE LEGENDARY THINKPAD
you put gentoos on thinkpads or pentiums from the 90s
goated
yte
yes
Also a matter of prefence too. I kinda like gnome cause I had a Mac AIO at one point and it's not windows. lol
thinkpad goated
i love twm man
im literally using one on windows
I just didn't have the patience to try and do my job and configure at the same time. lol
i was planning on buying a t450, reviews? (the old one ofc)
next level is building lfs with holyC
ignore my corny ass wallpaper
buy t480 i think, or x220
glazewm '
literally mine was 160 eur(32 gb ram, 1 tb ssd)
i saw t480 for like 200$ somewhere
i cannot find it now
chris titus tech has a video on it if you need windows but like tiling windows managers
the config is a pain in the ass tho
I paid 350 for an old X1 carbon , but you cant swap RAM on them 
Another reason to jump to linux. I3 for the win
the thing on the left is startallback so i dont have to deal with windows11 slop taskbar
i like pain in the ass
yo im straight
b-but i need windows! (i only play cs which is linux native)
yoo sorry its offensive for most of the linux community
idk i boosted
mostly cos i just joined and didnt want the noob role
lmao
Media perms are locked behind hacker perms or higher
damn
pay2win gang
I didn't pay
Some of my sanity
compared to 5$ a month
time is money!
not even its one of my nitro boosts
Or get one of the certs. One costs signficantly less than the other lol
and thats just so i can send people sourcecode for payloads lmao
certs are paid right?
yeah but worth it. im prepping for the cpts rn
Ye, along with the modules for those certs unless you're a student and can prove it on the academy plat
Hey could someone help me understand routing tables, so there's a local and connected route? and the connected defines the router to use right? like the first seven digits and that eigth digit is for the device on the LAN? I feel this might be wrong but I don't understand,
mfw went into maldev and exploit dev before doing any pentesting
i had an interview at a company yesterday and i told them that i have done xyz abcd previously and all they said was "we do not care about what u have done, explain how u can help us with our business and u are in"
idk if that is what the value of certs has come down to
thats just being bad at interviews (no offense)
certs are just the resume filter
liked
they give a fuck if youre useful
Interviewing sucks anymore,
CWES is good fun too.
"hello i can hack any of your websites tell you how i did it so you can fix it and you dont get all your data stolen along with multiple lawsuits from relevant stakeholders" is a good one
i feel like if ur joining something like google or a big company, they would care about certs. New businesses and startups jus need people who know what they are doing more than they need cert holders
i promise you, if you had a blog detailing your research and skill without a cert to your name you'd get hired without a single cert
imagine youd find 20 cves but 0 certs
do you think theyd want someone with the oscp, or 20 0days
i do
even if you just did a writeup on a patch analysis you diffed and made an nday vuln for, you'd be fine
link ur blog
i have a blog that also includes a study about windows and how u can knock someone offline basically forever if they are using windows
I gotchu
So why do you specify that last digit on the conected route? That tell which device to use right? but why does it have that information I thought the sub-net mask was further down or encapsulated
dm (it contains priv info)
dm me it
Oh thank you 
Routing tables are how devices keep track of
How fast it took on one route
Vs another route
And optimizes it's routes based on what gets there the fastest
I see,
Please help.
I recently encountered a problem connecting via VPN, some time after upgrading to a VIP subscription (I've since canceled it).
I tried connecting on both the guest and host machines, but I can't connect on either.
When connecting, the connection is established, the IP address changes, but the connection is impossible:
ping -c 1 -W 1 10.10.11.83
PING 10.10.11.83 (10.10.11.83) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 10.10.11.83 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms
When viewing the routing table, I noticed that I apparently have access to the academy machines, but not to the active/legacy machines.
netstat -rn

Reinstalling the VPN, switching to TCP, and lowering the MTU didn't help. The network is set to NAT.
They're on a different vpn
That's why
I know, but I'm not installing an academ VPN
I don't understand why, if I install the config to connect to machines, I can't access them?
Installing the config? These things don't make sense homie
So from what I underatand, you can make a route thus "192. 432. 2. 2/24 the 24 part means that the first seven digits are for the destination right? so 192. 432. 2. is the network it needs to go to next, and that .2 part just before the /24 is for the device ON that network, why is device info in the route? shouldn't the sub-net mask thing be on a different layer for the router to unpack and resolve?
You need a different .ovpn file for labs, academy, and starting point
I may be word salad-ing 🤔
I understand that they have different files for different purposes. And I don't use the Academy's access to labs
I understand what a subnet is, and I believe it's "mask" is on the "internet" or network layer?
Oh okay
So we can clearly see that each octet is 8 bits long
Yes
In a /27, we have 27 Ones and 5 zeroes
For a total of 32
Because ipv4 is a 32 bit based system
wait, octet...8 bits
(i knew this, just goofin)
Ok
Now /24 is a format too right? is it widely used
It's basically an efficient way of denoting a range of IP addresses
2 ** (32 - mask length) = number of addresses in subnet
192.186.1.0 /24 means
Yo, maybe you can help me with the connection? I don't know what to do, and from what I could find in the browser, it didn't help
That the last octet represents any number between 0-255
I hate subnetting
Normally it's not the top or bottom as those are reserved
i'm not staff
Ok, I think I knew that
Good good
So for 192.186.1.0/24, the first 24 bits cannot change. The last 8 can.
fair
Bingo!
Which gives you 2**8 possible addresses
There's only 255 possible sub net masks?
no
Nope
There are only 32 possible subnet masks.

255.255.255.0 is this subnet mask now
Because the last octet can be any number between 0-255 now
Yep, how many hosts can live here
Ooh
The IP address part of the CIDR specifies where the subnet starts.
How many unique IPV4 addresses you can assign 😄
They have to be unique or else you'll have collisions
Forgive me for being slow on the uptake, so the last three digits in /32 specify how many hosts are on one network?
the /XX specifies how many hosts the network can have
Ah
Dang, this is complicated I believe I'm understanding though
It's less complicated than it seems
Is that like a full course or just one specific pig lab?
If it makes you feel better most computers do this automatically nowadays
The subnet mask is just "which bits cannot change"
I see, yes you don't want static routing right?
The number of bits which can change determines how many IP addresses the subnet has.
You can set up static routing that's fine
If you know the most efficient route in the network or if you want the traffic to only flow how you want it
Otherwise the hosts will fill their own routing tables and decide what's best
Let's do another, 172.16.0.0/12
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here katy my networking knowledge is a few years rusty
No you're correct, I'm just trying to provide some extra explanation
It's appreciated
12 out of the 32 bits cannot change.

Ah yes that's what I thought, so there is a difference between /24 and /32 right? and somehow /27 didn't understand that... but the number of digits that specifies the num of ip addresses on the subnet varies depending on /24 or /32 right?
Yeah there’s no bites to take
32 - 12 is 20, so 20 bits can change.
Oh okay
2 ** 20 = 1048576
Cidr notation is always designed to tell you how big or small the network is
The smaller the / number, the bigger the network
So 172.16.0.0/12 has 1048576 IP addresses.
A /7 is huge compared to a /24
Is it always 12 bits to define the network?
No.
It's always 32
It's 12 bits because the subnet mask is /12
Or, subnet mask
OHH the num after the slash defines how many bits define the network whatever is left defines the subnet num?
Yessss
Yes
He gets it
😂
God we love a breakthrough
Finally lol. Feels good
yup thats the cidr notation
So 172.16.0.0/12 is the subnet from 172.16.0.0 thru 172.31.255.255
Binary is fun (I wanna die)
binary is based
hahah lol. are u doing challenges?
Nah I was helping him learn subnetting haha
It seems I can only find it as a big event and not like a project or lab
Sherlocks are blue teaming puzzles
There's a ton of em
And it takes three digits for /12 because there is 512 possible bit combinations represented be 1000 possible digits
0 or 1 🗿
Can you kinds guide me on doing one that is CTI kinda like incident response triage dashboard
Can you kinds guide me on doing one that is CTI kinda like incident response triage dashboard
I'm not sure what you mean. Where is the 512 coming from?
I'm at work unfortunately
A CIDR block is a 32 bit number, followed by a number between 0 and 32.
what do u work as
I'm a SOC analyst
/12 would mean 12 bits for the network destination right?
that is great
2^12 is 512,
can someone help me with wechat verification, I need someone to refer me. part of their account verification. anyone already having an account please help me in. 
/12 represents the network address, there's 24 more host bits you're forgetting about
😢
can i add u? i might need some guidence
Yes I understand that,
lol
The notation doesn't matter at all for understanding this
Listen to Katy here, she's v smart
😂 I much appreciate the patience
A subnet is a range of IP addresses, which is specified using two numbers.
Number A is 32 bits
Number B is between 0 and 32
how did you instantly calculate the correct range though
Can you help me out also
Number B is the number of bits in Number A which cannot change.
To calculate the size of the subnet,
We need to know how many bits of Number A can be changed.
hi
There are 32 bits in Number A. So to get the number of bits which can change, we subtract Number B (bits which cannot change) from 32.
Yes I understand this, let me try an example to check
Try 10.0.0.0/8, step by step
If you can calculate the highest IP address in that subnet, then you understand.
trinary
Forget octets, they don't even matter here except for conversion to human notation
in the ends it's all cachelines
So there are 32 bits defining both the network and the num of hosts on the subnet /8 means eight digits are unchanging, these represent the network location, the rest (24 bits) define the possible hosts right? Since everything is zero, that would mean there's only 1 host on the subnet or the destination is to the router itself??
Rats
I see
masks aren't the network
You're making this way more complicated than it is
I can't sleep
sleep
That's not like a complaint/attack against you, what I mean is: don't be afraid of it
i'll grab the elongated sleeping tool (it's a bat)
The computer can't hear me.. right..?
It's easier than you think
Thank you, so am I right in saying the portion after the slash tells you how many bits define the network?
Yes indeed that's correct
How many bits of what?
Bits of the 32 bit route?? Possibly
Let's not use the word route tho
Ah
It's getting confused for routing tables
Yeah
Which are a different subject
yeah, route has a very specific meaning in networking
There's the part before the slash, and the part after
For now we're just learning how the damn address system for how they find one another works lol
The part after the slash is "how many bits (of the part before the slash) define the network?"
Ok,
Ok, I'm assuming that the first three digits tell us the network right?
Each octet, which is what we call the numbers between the dots, is made up of 8 bits
Forget digits
Digits will just confuse you
Oh ok, so 10. tells us the network
it's binary math
which leaves us three octets
The 10. specifies the network, but not because it's 2 digits.
10.0.0.0 is just a weird-ass way of writing 0x0a000000
Ok I understand, it's because it represents 8 bits
Yes, exactly
So three octets tell us the host num?
In this case, yes. Not in all cases.
8 ones, 24 zeroes available to be used to represent host addresses
Ok
the first 8 bits of 10.0.0.0 define the network. And the last 24 bits specify the hosts in it.
Why 24?
Because there are 32 bits, and 32 - 8 is 24.
Now I don't know how many hosts there are since there are three zeroes, what does three zeroes mean in binary
The 3 zeroes have fuck-all to do with the number of hosts.
Yes I understand that now, I was getting hung up on num of digits instead of those dots
They're just binary zeroes
Dang
You do the math to calculate how many hosts there are. It's an exponent problem
2^24
2^(8+8+8)?
2^24 in otherr words
There's no reason to write it as 8 + 8 + 8
16777216
Yeah I was using it to represent the three octets
But yeah since the / number represents the number we take the power to
It's easier to think of it that way
2^24
Hmm okay
Is there really that many hosts?
Or is that the possible ammount
It's just how many unique ones you can have
It's really crucial to understand that we are not calculating anything in terms of octets. Octets are only how we write things for human readability
Yep that's possible amount of unique addresses
Oh for sure it's way easier to type out 192.168.0.1 than it is to write 1 24 times
Turns out only computers can talk in binary really really fast
Who knew!
Ooh okay that makes sense 😂 so if those digits were not zero (after the first octet eg: 10. 0. 1. 2/8) what would that mean?
I understand the shorthand too I believe
That is specifying a particular host in the subnet
Since we know the first 10. Octec is reserved
10.0.1.2/8 is the 0.1.2 host in the 10.0.0.0/8 subnet
Anything after 10.blah.blah.blah is a host
Oooh okay that makes total sense, now I just have one more question why is that information there, shouldnt it be on like layer 3?
That is layer 3
Shouldnt the router have to open the frame and the packet to find out?
Ipv4 is layer 3
I have packet, packet has IP address on it
Do I know how to reach this host?
No?
no
Do I know who does?
Then forward it there!
Then it bounces and hops around the network like that
Until reaching the destination
And then he opens it up and finds the subnet thingy
😂
Routes come into play
At that point
Where they learn that less hops is better
Cuz it arrives faster
Wait wait but the route info is layer two right?
2 is the data link layer
Layer 3 is how you get data from 1 computer to another computer, even if they aren't plugged directly into eachother
Which describes the medium they cross
Not the rules it uses
So that's things like wifi, Ethernet, etc
So routing is layer 2 and layer 3 info?
Any layer higher
Can contain information from any layer lower.
For example if I yoinked a packet from you right now
It would tell me the Mac address that sent it
That's the physical layer, level 1

It would tell me the protocol it travelled over, Ethernet frame or wifi packet
Layer 2
It would tell me the network info
Layer 3
I'd probably even know what layer 4 protocol you have!
😳
Tcp or udp!
Oh Okay, 😂
Ok I think I understand, I have to meet with an advisor super quick, but @molten bobcat @mossy garden thank you very much for your help and time, I really appreciate when people take the time to help someone

if you install a european version then sample submission is restricted much more due to gdpr and such which is nice
I think my least favorite thing ever is rebooting my phone for a required security update installs fucking candy crush saga
huh?
lmfao
What fucking part of that is "required"
thats some balls lmao bruh
it's ridiculous this isn't just universally global, but imperialists gonna empire
candy crush going crazy on getting middle aged moms addicted to microtransactions
I blame Verizon, Samsung, or both
get pinned cloud
how is this even legal btw? because they are adding software to your phone you never consented to
Likely did just in ToS somewhere
there is no "we're going to install candy crash" notification on system updates
It's probably in some giant contract somewhere
sounds a lot like criminal hacking to me
with unauthorized intrusion and installation of software
p simple, just add a vague clause that allows for installation of "things we deem important"
and boom
I've disabled quite a lot of the default Verizon and Samsung apps that can't be flat out removed
samsung phones are so fucked honestly
the samsung app store is like a CTF except the flags are money and PII

Fr, dude I hear so many people like “China is way nicer than the US, what does all the monitoring really hurt” which is great until the administration changes, and maybe the policies become less progressive and empowering, now some things in China are nicer but the problem with exchanging freedom for comfort is that you can’t reverse the transaction, now objectively a lot of things suck in america that could be better without taking away any freedoms but still I’d much rather be here than be in their shoes
I agree with this, people don’t know how good we have it here. the ability to have civil disobedience is better than not having it at all.
XDDD
Is this the one where he’s Jesus
Truth
I think the left/right wing hatred is kind of a similar vein, instead of taking a side I just think it’s sad how people are unable to ackowledge nuance, headlines are all just 100% hate anymore, people should understand that right wing people don’t want the things they want just to oppress people, also it should be acknowledged alot of “liberal” programs have helped alot of people, esp people who are in a bad situation
no politics
I’m not talking about political leaders I’m just talking about the best country so far

I just checked all 4 places he joined
Dude has never commented on any of em
Pretty sure it’s one of the people we kicked off the team for being inactive that got butt hurt
And I’m pretty sure which one it is too
I encourage everybody to just speak with their own words and in doing so you will naturally leave the matrix
People are so lame man
The trick is you have to discover your own words as the language taught to you was taught by the matrix
And not real
Yep language controls people you can learn words for things you never knew you needed like volya
The russian concept of the kind of freedom you have when youre alone out in nature and can yell or do whatever you want, unconstrained by the presence of others
I need that deeply
There are also distinctions between freedom from something and freedom to do something. We have a lot of the former but not much of the latter, a nuance which is often not understood

I didn't take the bite until I was sure it was done lmao
I just didn't think about taking a picture 
A pretty penny that'll earn ya

BROUGHT LOW, BY MY BURGER
Don't spend it all in one place
depends what you're revving
I want another Popsicle
I've used it for objective C for iOS apps before and it was pretty nice
but for literally any other use case i would rather use binja, even then still probably just binja
is a DDos bug considered as High sverity or low?
that it can affect all nodes in the network and is economically cheap to exploit.
Most programs exclude denial of service bugs I think so check the scope
Thats weird
I like brioche
I’m not hungry I ate like (I was hungry then) a thousand chex mix packets and fruit bready- bars while I was waiting for the advisor
True True, when I talk to people who have opposing political views (who aren’t bigotted) I realize we have much in common; in fact everyone does, we’re all very closely aligned in what we want, how to get that is the discussion
Its perfect for burgers

@left edge found your flag
teach me the way
no
im not a complite noob, i now about architectures and networks, but i lack knowledge on the command use in kali, i now aircrack,airmon,wifite,whiteshark,nmap,ecc
but on the web you can find a very restricted set of line code
I am the real founder of nmap
i want to learn, i now how to program and machine learning, but i want to get better at cybersecurity
can you help me Admin?
if you want to be black or grey your in the wrong discord, altho a lot of black hats and grey hats are in this discord anyways probably
I would say white hats = alphas. Black hats = the person who gave the cult the middle finger and doesn’t conform to society’s norms like a Japanese salary man
just for work i would prefer staing in the light side
good decision
keep it that way
Well look at the salaries

Black hats can become billionaires. White hats get screwed over in this economy
im a 28 , im italian, i did eletrical engeniring, and now computational neuroscientist.
my goal is to improve in the cybersecurity department
loking for expert to get some clue on the topics, because like i said on the web you find creeps and little information about real usefull stuff
you're in the wrong field if you're looking for an "expert in cyber" to guide you
this is true but black hats also get prison time
@supple plume I deprecated the yaml function for the HTB TUI, if you wanna fix it then go for it
the latest HTB SDK broke the feature and I don't wanna fix it
maybe, but this server is the only reliable resurce for information for the machine of htb,so can someone help get throu this machine or give me some clue ?
#boxes is the correct place for help with boxes
thanks
nah nah the ones that are making money are selling exploits on a grey market. its not legal or illegal. just morally weird
I have a rasberry pi 4 model b its just laying around I was wondering if i can make a gadget out of it?
thinkng of getting a m1 or m2, or a dell rugged, customised to 16gb/32gb 1tb
I've had a mac before it died in water:/ and was thinking of which would be better to use for hacking and most of my work(full stack). I'll be booting the parrot OS from a pen drive
I hate it =_= Just set up a new system, tested for half an hour to see why it wasn't working, turned the router off and plugged it back in, and it works.
10 minutes later
connection lost but everything looks fine
ohhhhh
the ip from the host changed from .**3 to .**1
i feel so dump

- file server
- superior rubber ducky
- Proxy/vpn
- Only for cracking hashes...
you can buy a few more and make a kubernetes cluster
rpis are shit for hash cracking because they don't have GPUs
and your phone probably has a stronger processor than a pi tbh
true..
friends dont let friends have a raspberry pi cracking rig
home k8ns 
while it's not exactly k8ns I run a home kubernetes cluster using k3s
u guys are fried
just the 1 node? L 
I normally use k3s for clusters since k0s is weird with its DNS and k3s is more batteries included
ofc do you think I'm made of money???
I run k3s with 2 nodes but all the pods run on one node cos I ain't setting up a shared storage 
peak homelab is android phones running k3s
pis for k8s is goated
yes but my piss poor ass doesn't own pi's, I own secondhand laptops that relatives asked me to fix but never bothered to claim
mr 2 j*bs can't get a pi?
Everybody is rude in here cuz they want are mad they aren’t an elite hacker
He can't after allocating all his funds to life expenses, #1 is tuition fee
okay w1ld no need to fuckin flex on all of us damn
i'm an adult i swear
broke is not the worst. I need 30k just to get to broke 
the extensive reading in cpts is like insane, im mainly doing cpts just for the sake of it im still in high school dont ban me ive already done the form and stuff and had to go thru a mod to be here im mainly a coder but i thought pen testing would be a good skill to have bc i havent had goals in years so im trying to like do something and the boringness and extensive reading is making it so unmotivating. and im not at the point where i can just spam machines and learn from that. i have the student thing so i can particpate in all paths is cpts as interactive as it gets with pen testing
Since you already have programming experience, you can try just following the write-ups on older machines and learn from that. It's what I am doing to keep it interesting.
maybe yeah idk im just trying to make it a strong goal to get the cert
i tried rushing it before i got the 20% in like 2-3 weeks and i burnt myself out like crazy
so ive been off for a few months
Munching theory is tiresome, no doubt.
Need to split between Academy and Labs. I use text to audio for the reading. Helps with my attention span lol
i dont have a labs subscription is it worth it?
You can make do without out it but depends on how "active" ur trying to get.
genuinely dont know what im gonna do with the cert
but i just want to genuinely do something cant be a goalless person
Does anybody know if there are issues at the moment on HTB academy. My machines react very slow over SSH and keeps closing connections
Keeps driving me crazy as im at the last flag but cant get the connection working
Before you chase goals you're not sure be sure you prioritize what's naturally interesting, not what you think you should attain.
well ive kind of lost my super interest for coding im on data strcutures and so binary search trees red black trees its getting very enterprisey if you know what i mean
You think binary search is enterprisey wait for 45min c++ build times 😄

you've been given the mark, you're safe from the ban... for now
; I think something that can help keep you engaged when you hit an interactive section between long stretches of reading is to just fuck around with it, purposefully do something wrong. Another thing is test along as you read, spawn the lab and attempt what the reading suggests (note this won't always be 100% feasible, as some of the labs require some tweaking from the examples to get working)
when I get stuck coding i think WWJD, What Would Jord Do and then I suddenly end up drunk
hihiii
Has anyone tried NOMome Desktop
Do you mean gnome?
No look up NOMone Desktop on googleplay
on Google play 🥀
on a quick search it looks very gimmick
at that point just root your phone
at that point just setup a VPS and connect to it remotely
or that
It’s a quick road to madness
Or building a debugger
It’s only one of the two though
How are they mutally exclusive? If I had to build a debugger I'd be on a road to madness
I can’t explain WWJD
It’s jus how it works
When you decide that you will do what jord does
string fuckyou();
string fuckyou(){
printf("Fuck you")
};
You either build a debugger
Not the prototype 💀
this seems like it'll lead to several memory problems 
why do you think it's called fuckyou() 
Or madness overcomes you
-# definitely not because i don't know jack shit about C
Ken Thompson, change my mind 
All I was trying to was suggest trying out NOMoneDesktop because maybe someone else.cpukd figure out just how exactly it works
Counterpoint, do creators of a language REALLY know how it works if others can break it? 🤔
if you wanna figure out how it works, download and decompile it
¯_(ツ)_/¯
If no one can figure how it works or find any source code with a simple search result maybe someone could examine the apk then from their figure out everything else
Counter Counterpoint, do we really know that Ken Thompson didn't put a backdoor into the C compiler that compiled all other compilers...
I'm gonna read it into that @0xW1LD
Don't have others do the work you're too lazy to do. This could be your entry point. Plenty of devices have a developer mode, where you can enable it -> then plug your phone into the device and have full access to it

I feel like whenever Microsoft designed Windows NT, they switched off their brains before coding everything

Get to hacking
I don’t have time to think of my ex when I’m hacking
So I’m always hacking
(help im getting carpal tunnel)
but I really miss her snores
hello everyone
Pretty much, if more people would calm down they would realize that. I think about how Yuri Bezmenov described ideological subversion all the time. Once a person is de-moralized you can show that person true information and they can't understand it. Many people are simply too conceited to care.
at one point do i not feel like a skid
It's not that complicated lol. A black hat is just some random person who needs some quick cash, so they create malware that mines crypto on a botnet.
Chat, do you think that jägermeister and sprite would go good together?
Botnets are very annoying tbh.
Yeah
We get lots of annoying scans from them lmao
Youre kinda diluting it imo
You dont need to mix good alcohol and jager is very tasty
It's a bit strong for me tbh
Dont have a huge amount then they sell it in the little bottles for a reason. Jager is for sipping
I still wanna enjoy it tho because it tastes kinda nice
Pass the cpts or oscp
I love this research paper graphic so much
how do i get into the vpn for htb academy again
turns out I didn't have any sprite. I mixed it with some orange flavoring and it tastes good
Bruh why am I seeing all these arts and craps stuff on my ig reels????!!!

CPTS too much pre-requisites, I have to to finish CJCA first 🙁
The name of this company is offense, and I have to take a defense certification first rrrrrrrrrrr.....
I'm focusing 80% of my energy on syntax and theory (that means going back to fundamental modules multiple times), felt burned out from CPTS...
Megumin from Konosuba disagrees, she thinks the best defense is offense.
cjca is an offensive/definsive cert
combined both
Oh sweet, I feel safe to get it then. There's overlap with CPTS and I felt the contents are understandable and moderate difficulty so it's OK if I change track now.
If you didn’t know this, did you even read what cert you changed your path to? 🤔
But good luck and have fun. Crossing my fingers for you 
Remember, sometimes something doesn’t make sense until a few sections later. At least, that’s what happened with me 🤣🤣
a loooong time ago when I was a brand new noob I spent about 8 to 10 months smashing my face into my keyboard
all to find out that I was learning how to exploit null pointer dereferences
and not even knowing what version of nix was running on the ctf
it's possible you might still find it, it was called IO from a website called smashthestack
It is cool
Does this stuff work on modern nix?
I think the whole vuln class has basically been solved at this point, but I can't remember if it was null pointer deref or a different type of bin vuln
more or less a thing of the past on well-developed architectures
might still find them on weird ones like MISC
What does red and blue team mean
Google it
the colors they like

Red = Master Li
Blue = Mr. Han
I prefer green
i prefer black
Yo Kratos, i wasnt being a crazy person last night! Theres a different progress bar on the backend that the website had shown me previously. I managed to persuade the support enough he checked it and proved it
it was a bug?
I dont know if its a bug or not, didnt bother deep diving that far. Im just happy anyway lol
I was about to throw my pc out the window because nobody believe me
lmao
well be glad you were right
good
woke up late today
have to write a report on Advanced Persistent Threats in Cybersec for a project
School things?
college thing, yea
hi
Is it as fun as in the movies to go college?
hello guys
somewhat yes, somewhat no
depends on what you do in college
you do make friends in college who you can hangout with and have fun with.
Is it like endless partying and mindless sex as shown in the movies? ehhh depends if youre into that
my college does have parties in clubs here and there, but i was never into partying or drinking alcohol so ive stayed away from that
I thought in the Americas you cant drink until you have spent at least 2 years going to war 
lol
18 years age to go military, 20 for drinking
isnt it 21 for drinking in US?
Wow maybe
in india its 18-25 depending on the state
And in some European countries its 16 to go drink at the bar
alot of eurpoean countries have their cultures centred around alcohol
like Irish culture
Its fantastic
even nordic and greek cultures have alot of alcohol involved
wait ur in college?
i thought you were a jobber
Kratos is a youngie
i have an internship
nice i guess
which is like a part-time job
tho internships can be hit or miss
not that young
true, im a jr pentester so its all good i guess
do you get paid at least
yea
then its good
Yo about that. Does some of the senior or more experienced pentester around HTB stream sometimes?
Ok
i remember @patent elbow once streamed a tryhackme machine which he solved within 5 minutes
Lol
So much for a learning experience
I think this is the best thing ever, i get to be a criminal legally
Cant say no to that
Ok
You take cysec as an elective or what?
Hi
Technical society stuff
Not elective
Its a me! Mario!
Yeah it sure is
are you, perchance, stomping on turts?
How many pen do you have to test to become senior
have to test these
these can only be tested by the seniors
Is that multi color
Damn someday I'll get to do that hopefully
junior cant handle multiple pens to be tested at same time
🔏
sparkling what hapepend to the challenge you submitted
still pending
💀
when did you submit
isnt it supposed to take 2-3 months
august or so
You know who else is pending?
lol
who?
