#

give me your 2 cents

terse dirge
#

you can also do functional programming in go

wooden dust
#

But why not just use C

#

Python already deal with most tasks

#

I don’t know what’s the point of using go

#

Unless β€œoh I like it”

terse dirge
#

you also get very fast compile times with go

dusky jacinth
#

Give me some everyday uses

terse dirge
#

go also has an amazing ecosystem with containerd

dusky jacinth
#

like for me I can use python for the most mundane shit

#

How are you using it?

terse dirge
#

for malware you can use them for things like ebpfs

wooden dust
#

Python if you know how to utilize threading or anysc I think it can run very fast too

terse dirge
#

go's concurrency is it's big selling point. Go routines are amazing

#

and it's much more scalable than python

rapid badger
#

Go is for web api's and stuff. If you want to use matplotlib use python.

#

Sovles Google problems

terse dirge
#

instead of manually specifying the number of workers for your fast api api you can just write it in go's gin framework and get it blazing fast

rapid badger
#

And yeah concurrency is great in Go, instant compile times and multi-platform compile is goated

#

Learn python, learn Go, learn C. They all have their places.

wooden dust
#

I think Python can use in more scenarios then in go :/

rapid badger
#

If you want to write python, write it. I dont care πŸ™‚ Nobody pays me if you write X lang

wooden dust
#

Go is the same thing

black arch is by far one of the worst ditros i have ever used
in that time i spent 80% of the time fixing shit that broke
but now i use arch and just install from aur and now i dont spend any time fixing shit

#

but i would highly recommend using a vm nonetheless

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

i tried once
never again

alpine nimbus
#

@scenic maple Ryan was saying it never broke for him and he's been using it for 2 years though.

Is there a chance you guys understand it differently?

scenic maple
#

most of the times they usually messed up mirrors and gnupc issues

alpine nimbus
#

Maybe the configs/setups?

scenic maple
#

i dunno for sure there coule be many reasons why his one didnt break maybe he didnt update as much maybe he didnt use the tools i needed

#

but the thing is the sole existance of blackarch is questionable

#

you should have a damm good reason to not use aur and go to blackarch

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

if you dont have one then just use aur as it is

#

i havent read far up but i have used quite a few distros

#

where did ryan say he used blackarch tho

alpine nimbus
#

I'm a cyber sec student going towards being a pentester

I've been using Kali for like 10 years now but I'm browsing for new/better options

Mostly because I find Kali to be bloat-y and noisy if that makes sense

And it's a pain to try and kill all the background processes just to be silent.

So I'm trying to compare Kali/Parrot/BA for that

alpine nimbus
#

Unless I forgot what person I was talking to

scenic maple
#

if you truly want bare minimum you have a lot of options

#

exegol is one

#

or if you want arch then just go for arch and install the stuff you need

#

thats the best way

#

you only use like what? 25 tools at max? why u need 1300+ tools installed lol

alpine nimbus
#

I've been exclusively Debian distros. I love Kali, don't get me wrong.

I just wanted to compare newer options now

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

as i said give arch a try

#

not blackarch

#

install what you need

alpine nimbus
#

Like I said, Kali always running processes in the background without my say is getting a little tacky to me

#

And a ton of tools I don't touch

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

no

#

blackarch uses its own mirrors and stuff

#

thats the thing that broke for everytime

#

i have been using arch for years and it never broke unless i did something stupid

alpine pumice
#

that means it broke every day

scenic maple
#

i have a arch forum discussion somewhere let me see if i can find it it contains all the things you need to know

alpine nimbus
#

Well you'd definitely know more on them than me.

I've been strictly Debian. Ubuntu > Mint > and then Kali for the past 10 years like I said

#

I have the urge to explore the other side or maybe just go to Parrot lol

scenic maple
#

90% of the distros are exactly the same there is barely any difference

#

technically speaking i could say arch is just debian but with pacman and bleeding edge

#

and no one would fight me

#

pacman is the package manager like apt

molten bobcat
#

Almost off work

alpine nimbus
#

Well here, I don't want to keep you waiting too long.

But I want to change up my setup to run Qubes as my main OS + Whonix and then maybe explore a new testing distro instead of Kali

So my comparison was Kali/Parrot/(Black or whatever now)Arch

Kali seemed more and more like the weaker option of the 3 for me with what I'm hearing but yeah. Couldn't tell if Parrot VS Arch would be better for me to move

scenic maple
#

parrot is as noisy as kali

#

there is little difference

#

thing is they are made so that you can just install and go no customization or setting up

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

and arch is a diy distro you choose what you need and turned on

scenic maple
alpine nimbus
#

They said Parrot was silent and stealthy with the anon toggles lol

scenic maple
#

wait

#

wdym by stealthy

#

i thought u meant by background process kinda noisy

alpine nimbus
#

Well full of masking options apparently but my main point was processes in the background

Hence why I'm willing to expose myself to some pain for Arch

scenic maple
#

afaik what you are talking about is anonsurf you can install it in kali too lol

alpine nimbus
scenic maple
#

processes in background are going to be like this
arch has the least > parrot in the middle close to kali > kali has the most

alpine nimbus
#

So I came here for experienced and unbiased advice

fiery copper
#

I accidentally deleted system32

#

On Windows

scenic maple
#

you have to try on your own

#

maybe even tho arch is lighter you would like parrot who knows

wanton dock

#

there are distros even lighter than arch

brittle quail
brazen crown

are you sure

brittle quail
#

yes like my mouse is visibly lagging vbox isnt parrot is

#

its very slow

brazen crown
#

it might not be the refreshrate

it is prob system performance

#

allocate more cpu cores or memory, see if it improves

I’m currently working as a Security Researcher & DFIR Expert, handling major incidents and APT cases.

Looking to go deeper in HTB but not sure what the best next step is for advanced forensics or malware analysis.

I was considering CAPE, though I’m a bit hesitant since it’s very offense-heavy and I’m trying to stay focused on DFIR.

serious question

#

if I have a netcat listener running as a background job. how can I interact with it sending commands without foregrounding?

supple plume
hardy frigate
#

Bro the box in the sliver module ends my connection after 5 minutes of when I use any connection oriented exploit

untold fiber
supple plume
#

I want to do something else, it's for scripting non interactive remote access

untold fiber
#

Yes, use screen

#

You can use screen to keep the shell open and send commands to it from another process. You can read it's log file to parse the output of the listener.

#

This is what I've done in the past for automating owning cloud labs / pro Labs

supple plume
#

but so can't I send it to the background?

untold fiber
#

You can detach the screen

#

You don't background netcat

#

The screen is detached in the background

#

You can send commands to it without needing to reattach it

one last question

how can I check the logs?

its been a while since ive used HtB, but my VIP auto-renewed for a year about a couple weeks ago, but it seems like that doesnt do anything now...

untold fiber

is there a way to get a refund, or bumped up to VIP+?

rare spoke
#

ok thanks

#

i totally forgot it was on auto-renew, and I havent done hack the box in about a year lol

untold fiber
# supple plume thank you

There is probably python libs that will handle this better though tbh, but I was trying to automate it like it was a user completing it normally, so I used screen

We’re making some changes to streamline our subscription plans on HTB Labs. Starting February 26th, 2026, we’re retiring the VIP plan and upgrading all current VIP members to VIP+ at no extra cost until your next renewal.
What you get with VIP+:

Unlimited Pwnbox time
Access to all Machines from the Vulnlab partnership (read more about it here)
Everything you already had on VIP!

Once your subscription renews after February 26th, it'll be at the VIP+ rate (Β£165/year).

#

so i guess ill auto get bumped to VIP+?

untold fiber
#

I'm not sure exactly how it works tbh, but support will be able to sort you out if you open a chat
