What did you use to code this?
Which platform / region?
finding 3/3 gives a matrix invite lol
united kingdom but every region shows 100000ms ping
ow
Which platform?
no one has solved it yet D:
labs
I'll try it during my classes today
Not sure what to say, just managed to spawn there fine, and the latencies look ok under both Free and VIP+. Any adblockers? What happens when you try to spawn one @vestal sigil ?
I 1337 rooted it with leet hagive me my prize
lol... invite to the matrix server xD
way to kill the fun though
Oh shit
gimme
I mean theres a "self invite" system when u have the flag, i honestly forgot how I set it up
but dm me ur matrix and ill invite π
All good @vestal sigil ? It looks like it spawned ok and you're connected to the VPN, although you're connect to the Free VPN instead of VIP+
hi π new here
This site canβt be reached Check if there is a typo in vnc.htb-cloud.com. If spelling is correct, try running windows network Diagnostics. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
@eternal mango how does it look on your POV when you see others connecting to machines and VPNs
I have very limited visibility, can still check Pwnbox spawns, current connected VPN server etc
but my role does not require any further access than that, e.g. access to hypervisors or edge servers
so I don't have it
Are you allowed to show a screenshot of the UI? π
I just wanna see how it looks like
Not sure what to say - it's working fine here. Check your nameserver config on your host machine.
Otherwise hit up support

Sorry I can't be of any further help.
lol no π
Unfortunate
Sounds like a your issue
Im playing with glm 4.7
g0blin, have you slept
got the second one
This is totally π― a totally real and not pretend screenshot

It looks legit
@meager kernel ^
shh
wheres the dashboard that says "user xyz trying the same attack for the 4th time and failing"
At least they are a persistent threat
Somewhere I'm sure

almost weekend time
cant wait to stop looking at bad work computer and look at good personal computer
Is there no longer a community-help thread forum
Shows up as "No Access"
Interesting
You aren't verified
it works for me
Check the instructions in #welcome
Account linkage from HTB to Discord changed some time ago
how does he have script kiddie role if he's not verified
My partner and I might be trying again to beat Baldurs Gate 3 this weekend
Because that
Oh
I think I got verified
Anyone else at SCALE23x besides @oblique zenith and the entire Saddleback College Collegiate Incident Response Competition for Undergraduate Students (CIRCUS) team including yours truly?
I did!!
That's so cool man
Had a lot of fun
Oh helllllll no
awesome π
so glad hehehe
yeah it was just a little evening project tbh @ocean marsh
that got out of hand I think i built the whole thing in like 5 hours
Heyo
oyeH
What Grok would do with a Tesla if you asked it to drive to the closest parking space
I see what you did there
Damn how
Whereβs my Uber at?
coffee
holy trinity with a python backend
?
lol no; html, css, javascript
What does it mean
It means the dog stayed anchored to a point in space rather than a point on earth
I know its a funny meme i found
Ive seen it 5 times today
hi, is there no way we can get back the old UI?
use tampermonkey and write a script to change the UI to your desire
you are overestimating my skills
Use GPT
No Im saying to reach above your station and manifest the reality you desire
Do shit and learn stuff
why not womanifest
i will just wait and hope someone else will do it and i will just have to copy it
if womanifesting the reality you desire is what it takes then go for it
practical but lame
what if nobody else does it though
then it was never meant to be
not lame, lazy
I was about to say that
nah still lame
the only correct no answer is 'I would but Im prioritizing other endeavors for my development instead'
I fucking hate Summers bring back winters
or im letting other people learn something
Bro has maxed out laziness
why do something when you cant do anything
then what?
I found a way to download GeneratedWebControllerClients.ts from a website on a BBP (through .map)
BUT I'm not that advacned yet to figure out vulnerabilities of the their coding (for escalation)
So I had decided to just submit that normal users can download the GeneratedWebControllerClients.ts
and other ts files
any tips on what should I do next ?
I mean I wouldn't make such a submission without confirming impact
good way to get banned from platforms
What now...
You do more research
Why would I get banned
@severe falcon amazing that you solved that Insane pwn challenge in one hour dude!! can you give classes to be able to solve so many challenges that fast pls?
but I want it burned into your skull that you do NOT make a vuln submission that does not have security impact
check the chall thread
there was a bug
because programs are being overwhelmed by shitty low impact bad reports that platforms are banning those submitters to cut down on the tedium
thats whats up.
I mean I suck so bad that I had to ask Gemini if this is enough or should I do something else and bro didn't even hestitate and started writing the report for me
I got a lill bit excited...
really, i never saw that
Yeah dont let AI gaslight you into bad reports
It's good step to get source code why not look into it and try to get more files maybe
curl has canceled their program entirely due to shit reports
Bad OPSEC
man psytrance goes so hard completely forgot
Having source code is one thing, but if it's just been found from a .map file, that's kinda intended. What you need to do is to find and clearly demonstrate risk in order to submit a valid report.
A report without demonstrable threat will get chucked over the fence
g0blin manifest a cold lager in my bridge i need it big time
and to be clear you probably won't be banned from one bad report, but each one is a mark against you and it adds up.
The thing is I'm not that professional yet but after asking AI it said that downloading GeneratedWebControllerClients.ts is a security vulnerability that is considered as P3 because it allows threat actors to have a fully roadedmap for their own usage to find vunlerabilites way easiers (WHICH IRONICALLY I FORGOT I WAS A HACKER HERE FOR A MOMENT)
I'm sorry, my power levels are too low
What can you do with the file though just having a file is not vulnerability if there's nothing useful in the file
So it's a vulnerability that was worth submitting right ?

its okay to be inexperienced, thats why Im advising now. For the future, without demonstrable impact its NOT a valid report. It doesnt matter what AI says, and you gotta verify everything it says. If you dont know or not sure, youre not ready for a report yet
A .map file is just a sourcemap file which ok, usually shouldn't be shipped with production builds of the scripts (as they allow for debugging / mapping back to their unpacked state), but ultimately you have not obtained anything that is hidden or not meant to be accessible.
more than 20 challenges were bug?
The problem was that I didn't have any sleep for like 6 hours, so coming up with something like that after 6 hours of working hard was crazy to me and I rushed, I hope that I learn a lesson from this in the future
this guy doesnt know simon recruited me and i grew with him
No, I mean if there was a actual vuln then asking AI is the worst thing you are basically leaking that if the models database get's leaked so does your vuln
I'm cooked
Don't rush it's common if you're beginner to rush because you think "i found something" and try to get quick money but explore everything to the end of its depth because instead of 100$ or nothing you can earn more
Not necessarily, as he said depends on the impact
For sure, its easy to get ahead of yourself. And while AI is a very useful tool its very much tuned towards telling you what you want to hear first so it will overhype and blow up every minor thing because thats what youre hoping for.
Also im not saying youve found nothing yet, its a good step towards potentially finding actual issues. Youve simply jumped the gun too early.
Hopefully my next experience would be better because of this
Not NLTE
Don't give up on it yet explore more the fact they don't remove source files from production should be warning you "this code might be slop" and you should look more into it but by itself it's not a report you should make now
So if they look into the GeneratedWebControllerClients and the other files that could be downloaded and they found some of it is very vulnerabile (which was supposed to be my job to do this) it could get escalated ?
What you found is like a sign you should keep looking more
Yea I just understood that, TYSM for the tips
I will try to do some researching on how people figure out vulnerable blocks of code in ts file after reverse engineering
Get out of this chat already
I will TYSM for the tips
That user is meant to be banned
I skimmed and it looked like something else.
His previous interactions already established that
@dusky raft also where theres one mapped file you can pull theres usually others. I would try to see how much you can actually pull down and then go through them all. Prioritize secret leaks first for potential quick wins.
Is there's a tool that can crawl and find .js ends only for faster crawling ?
use ffuf and wordlist without extensions
like http://site/FUZZ.js
i get error This site canβt be reached
loool
already haxored it
aight ty
it's an example of how FUZZ works
thank you
smh classic omniscient rank doesnt understand fuzzing
Feroxbuster is also a great tool it can fuzz recursively
Yea
not yet
im 2 challs away
is there any way to get a free trial in the platform i want to learn more in the academy but free tier is very limited?
You can get free access to all modules paying 1000 dollars a year
You can request a free subscription as a bug bounty reward
you can hack the site and own all the modules
worked for me and I dumb dumb
Just hack the box
but unironically
The Hack The Box Vulnerability Disclosure Program enlists the help of the hacker community at HackerOne to make Hack The Box more secure. HackerOne is the #1 hacker-powered security platform, helping organizations find and fix critical vulnerabilities before they can be criminally exploited.
Whoops forgot to say that security testing isnt allowed even though we have a security.txt. Also buy enterprise sucker! :3
The scope is clearly defined on hackerone.
..and where was I pushing Enterprise?
What's wrong with that?
You didnt award the other hackers swag? but you rewarded your own employee swag?
hmmmmmm
Ohhh I didn't realise you had full view of the details of all the reports
What did I do to piss you off?
tbf usually staff are prohibited from engaging in a given vdp for the company they work for. But its not like thats a universal law or anything
Damn, we're such assholes wanting to reward staff finding legitimate findings and taking the time to report them.
We should be ashamed
why is so? If you do it in your free time whats the problem?
also from experience, you dont have to pick the swag option either. Maybe those other submitters wanted something else like I did
notionally its a conflict of interest. But personally I dont care, im just saying that htb is unusual for allowing employees to do so
Exactly
But how is a conflict of interest? It show like you like where you work and you care for your working place to the extend you dedicate your free time to make it more secure?
I must be clearer that I dont personally care enough to construct the argument and answers youre looking for
as in, I have 0 problem with htb's policy on it
what? I dont know what you mean and i dont understand how you wasted time typing that lol
Im saying youve misunderstood my position on the matter
Guess I was just the dartboard for the evening π€·ββοΈ If I've done something wrong, I have no idea what it was, but sorry I guess if I did Vader..
"the argument and answer youre looking for"
HTB built different
this place is amazing lol
I was pointing out that its an unusual policy, and that there are some vague reasonings behind why thats the case, but since the policy doesnt bother me I don't have an in depth answer as to why itd be an issue, only a surface level reasoning of people believing its 'a conflict of interest'
Last place I worked I found vulnerabilities during my day to day dev work, reported them, fixed them, and was thanked for it
..but ok, that place didn't have a public board
Anyway
As I said, understand your position, all good.
I think yall fine lol
..?
aka if you wanna argue this, direct those questions to someone that actually has an issue with their policy, not me lol
It would be a true conflict of interest if he report to THM xD
lol

Apparently we had our 3 day quota of sun for the year

ye its true
Not to assume, but I've not taken any of what you said personally. Mostly was just confused.

DMs always open
id like to at least explain myself
dude im still getting cooked on easy boxes and have to refer to writeup for some steps 
Hey everyone im new to cybersecurity and ethical hacking and just getting started any advice on where a beginner (zero experience) should start would be very much appreciated.
pick up drinking and smoking to cope
Update on this: I disclosed the vulnerabilities to the company anonymously, they replied with a brief thank you, and fixed them on the same day. 
So you got finesssed
Get Started with the HTB Beginners Bible: https://www.hackthebox.com/blog/learn-to-hack-beginners-bible
@ornate cape
brutal
appreciated
Not always for the money 
do u guys who are experienced refer to writeups when ur stuck?
nothing wrong with this as long as youre learning
indeed. when you've exhausted everything else
unless its active kek
a lot of the times i think i exhaust everything but i actually know how to do it just dont think about it
What helps me is to just walk away for a bit and come back to it
The critical part is that when you are stuck and learn what the next step is, thats when you should take a moment and really write down from a methodology perspective what went wrong. Dont just write down X or Y vuln or tool but take note about how you could have researched differently to discover the answer on your own
and you ARE taking notes when you learn new stuff, right π ?
yeah i use obsidian
good
i have too much of an ego to walk away for a bit lmao i get frustrated i dont know what im missing
guess i should get therapy thatll help me to hack
i cant get into markdown. i use cherrytree
wish i did use markdown for my notes though. would make it easier to feed them to notebooklm
Ill be real, I just really like obsidian sync
yeah same i use two devices and would be really sad if i lost my notes
I recommend backing up your obsidian root folder to GitHub
like automatically?
Havnt heard of notebooklm, Id be curious if I could feed the results back into obsidian
ive been just downloading it every month or so and dropping it in google drive to
Like do a runthrough to have it organize my 500pages of notes and then have it all back in my obsidian setup lmao
I guess you could automate it, but what I usually do is I just commit and push the changes at the end of every study session.
Ahh I see
I just pay the $5 and dont think about it
obsidian is a good product, its worth the support
definitely helps avoid AI hallucination
oh also another random question. is there ever a time u guys do boxes and dont even refer to ur notes once
depends
in the moment, just kinda forget they exist
damn how good do i have to be to be like that
ye I just wouldnt want to have my 'new notes' live on their platform forever for me. Id prefer to get the enrichment so to speak and keep my workflows the same
I refer to my notes constantly lol
not smart...prob the opposite. i end up googling unneccesarily
oh lmao
Yes, by the time I was done solving Lain's list as part of my CPTS and OSCP preparation, I had solved ~50% of the boxes in there without a writeup. At the start I was looking at the writeup for most of them, however. As you get more experience, your muscle memory and pattern recognition improves naturally if you do what the people above me said and use those boxes you could not solve as an opportunity to improve. 
i did spend a year at thm and for ejpt. i thought id be more prepared here but that definitely not the case
same, unless its super niche stuff I know is in my notes
I wrote a Gem to help me complete boxes when i get stuck. based on writeups
You passed the how to play tutorial, now youre in the actual tutorial

why not just buy a better computer and use vpn
youβre not alone. I felt the same fear with HTB, but then I figured I wouldnβt learn much from THM and just moved on.
tbh something like that
dont invite me to your anti-consumerism prison
i ruined my mental health for a minimum wage paycheck to be able to take pride in this purchase
in runescape the game only begins when maxed
in htb it starts in general chat
and then you never hack

yeaaaaa tell me about it π
@hoary dawn i just need you to type this

Is anyone else having problems spawning in HTB Academy boxes?
hi I cant spawn them and I really wanted to make progress right now
Oh it started working
I can get them to spawn but I cant run commands successfully.
in section 7 of getting started I'm told to run an nmap scan and find the version of the software running on port 8080 but when I run the commands nothing is happening. I've even opened the hint and put the same exact command the hint says to use but no response
I've tried running the commands from 3 different environments including Termux on my mobile, bash on my kali and bash on my parrot. all with the same results
Is it just me or they completely removed the vpn option from some module sections ? seems odd
Maybe its just a few of them.
would you rather watch a tree grow
Okay. There we go. Git server restored and mirrors pulled. :D
on htb academy now i don't see the option to go back to old ui , is new UI permanent thing or there is still option to go back
When you push to main at 4:45pm on a Friday 
If you're seeing anything odd like that, please do hit up support, if you want
..or #1234357888114364508 /feedback
Anything helps π
not odd just not used to new UI , and also new UI is very very slow
The old UI let you see everything you had completed.
A bit of a downer having go through multiple steps to find something that was already in the old front UI.
Really wish this was optional
/feedback is a gift π
I always forget about it, @eternal mango
Will do! Thanks for the reminder.
Thank you! Eyes are always on that feedback, and during and after this release, of course the team are paying close attention
It doesn't just go in to the void π
i can adapt to new UI but this responsiveness π₯², literally every page is taking ~3second top open
even going back on page take time
Feels like going from Win10 to Win11 
is it only for me or for everyone i'm tring to spawn my pwnbox its not getting spawned for any region. after some time it gets spawned but still like no display even if i open in full screen in another web page its the same.
the timer below is running
It eventually spawns, but I also felt like it took longer than before
Which platform / region? Just ran through all regions on Academy, and they all came up in under 30 seconds here :\
Reeegion?
I'm personally a bit of a luddite when it comes to UI changes honestly, I want to not be, but most of the time I just have a hard time agreeing with it (although I appreciate it must be done)
UK, US, EU?
I mean which location were you spawning the Pwnbox in
You still show as having your free spawn on Academy
so I dunno
The other day there were certainly issues
Unsure why you would be experiencing delays like 10 minutes right now though, sorry
Who wants some banana bread! Homemade!
yo u from thm
Any nuts?
seeing ur pfp after 2023
This is probably an annoying thing to ask for but do you have a .HAR file handy for booting up Pwnbox?
If it ends up being salty. Maybe
I can try to help you out based on the .HAR
I definitely won't hijack your session
(seriously though jk jk)
Also howdy once again Mr g0blin
I'd still be interested to kinda see the general network activity though, like if it's GET requests to api/v2/pwnbox over and over and over again for ten minutes or if it's hanging somewhere
(hanging OR failing, idk)
Bruh, I literally just created this Parrot VM, it hasnβt even been 24 hours yet
It does feel that way, and I know I've put in a little more than a few.
Funnily enough I actually encountered this as well, and when I hit that limitation, I immediately tried to revert back to the old UI but it was no longer possible at that time to do so
I know y'all have your priorities, fires, etc, but it does feel like a black box.
Unfortunately pretty much every software provider is like this with feature requests
Basically a complaint no matter which company you're talking about
I totally empathise with you, of course
About half if not more of the things I've submitted are not feature requests.
Yeah, features, changes, minor bug reports are all the same kinda thing
The only immediately actionable things are like SEV-1 and SEV-0 type jobs
Everything else, straight to ye olde backlogge
I worked technical support jobs for several years and it felt like a black box even to us

I've just opened my fast today, gonna go for a quick drive to clear my head a bit then pray and get my head down working
How about you?
I started my fast too, nice!
Acquired taste, I haven't developed it
Aha, salaam, my bro π€
I was literally just typing the same question π I'm in London, how about you?
Walikumsalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
We've got all the brothers in here tonight, subhanAllah
nice π Iam from yemen
Excellent country, probably one of the strongest in the world
Much stronger than this country
How is everything over there?
Thanks! I appreciate that π
Sorry for the delay, my English isnβt very strong, so I take a bit longer to reply.
No problem brother, your Arabic is definitely much stronger than mine and that's more worthy of respect than English π
English only please, it's in the rules
We are greeting each other as Muslims, man
Just to clarify, do the rules specify that we can't say "Aloha" or "Ciao" either?
Did you not read the rules?
Nein
You have gotten old mate, everyone including u once knew it was rule no 5
You can see yourself https://discord.com/channels/473760315293696010/569177628918022185
U forgot it didn't u
#rules 5
Not being able to greet a fellow Muslim with a greeting that is literally religiously imposed upon us, as practicing Muslims, is an absurdity
I hope you see how absurd that is yourself
that's not what's being said at all
It sort of is
greetings are fine, full conversations breach the line
Just keep it English
If not, then why were we all called out for saying "Salaam"?
There were no full conversations in other languages
well
just wanna say my opinion
the rules state ALL communication
that implies including greetings
you will be summarily executed for your opinion
might just be me tho
Lol

Seems you have violated the rules
Hello
i've never really gone after greetings, every mod interprets the rules in their own way. I prefer to just let greetings be, but if a full blown conversation that's not in english happens, that's when I step in
also that may have been prior to me becoming a mod
When did a full blown non-English conversation happen, can you tell me?
never did
Okay, perfect
and i never claimed it did
Did marcielee even say that u did in the first place?
and i don't think SuperNuts was saying anything beyond, keep the convo in English
@alpine pumice seemed to have a problem with it, so I'm just curious why
you took it as him telling you not to greet in Arabic
some mods take a more proactive approach, and try and head off rule breaking conversations before they begin, and a mark can get missed
Don't argue with this one lmao
if it was directed specifically at you, you would've been @ / replied to
or you would have potentially recieved a warning via a bot message
You were standing in to defend SuperNuts, obviously, with your statement that "that isn't what's being said at all"
If it's a general greeting I'm usually not going to say anything. I enforce the rules, and if I have no idea what the words are I'm going to just ask to keep it English because I have no idea what someone could be saying. Just as you wouldn't know what someone is saying if they wrote in a language you didn't know. I saw "Walikumsalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh" and decided to say something because I only know the first word in that sentence, I didn't want it to turn into a conversation in another language, as again, it's in the rules.
It means "and peace and blessings be upon you", just for your reference, and it is a standard greeting that you could Google before threatening someone with the rules
I suggest you just go over the rules, there's also rule 9
Thats a sentence
And a sentence
And the rules say nothing about that
We are arguing on trivial stuffs now
Im gonna go have my breakfast
Have fun guys
Tc
This. Is. #general!
To me it kind of implies that some of the moderators have some fairly strong opinions about how Muslims should greet one another
I just think that's interesting, is all
Wow
that's a very big reach
Bullshit
I'm actually shocked now
not all the mods have extensive knowledge on every world religion
nor every language
Yes, but clearly a cultural context was being hit, and we were passively and harmlessly engaging with one another as brothers in faith
or they live in an area with a Muslim minority, therefore they don't hear the greeting as often
but they don't know what that means
And they do not discriminate against someone or change their action bcz u are from any religion
Religion doesn't play any role in this server
Occam's razor my friend
How come "Salaam" is a problem but "Shalom" is not?
It's the same word, even, just in a different Semitic language
Who told salam was a problem in the first place
I'm not, you just have no idea what you are talking about
U are just assuming shits now and blaming the mods?
Yeah, I did
dude
2 years ago and now is very different
Like when did any mod tell u that telling 'salam' is probelm
Did the rules change from 2 years ago?
tl;dr you aren't being persecuted for your religion or your greeting.
I'm sure the moderation changed in 2 years
no, the rules didn't change. Moderation definitely has, but that's really neither here nor there
Okay, then maybe someone should be a bit more careful when the prelude to the conversation was about fasting and that there are going to be cultural sensitivities, not everyone is from America
As stated, not everyone knows every greeting in every language
you're making a mountain out of a molehill my guy
Smaller than molehill
You're the one refusing to apologise for defending a culturally ignorant statement, but sure thing
Keep being ignorant, I'm off lmao
ok bye
bro, here's my take
if a mod said that "Keep in english", just saying "it's a greeting, not really a convo :)" or smth like that, don't go crazy like "it's just a greeting, why are you telling me to keep it in english"
it's really not that serious.
True
I said: "We are greeting each other as Muslims, man. Just to clarify, do the rules specify that we can't say "Aloha" or "Ciao" either?"
So who died on a molehill, trying to argue against that?
mods aint telling you to stop, they just moderating lol, just in case of a situation
You're not the one who said it
I already answered that, and my original comment wasn't even directed at you.
Even tho the rules says keep it in English, greetings arent a big issue
you have 0 idea how often people start a greeting off in another language then dive into a full blown non-english conversation
Could have googled it but alright
cough
there's been a good handful that i've woken up and seen a full blown spanish convo going on in gen chat because mods are asleep, and I have not ascended past my mortal flesh
also like most of the time poking at the english only is tongue in cheek
hackthebox isnt even based in an English nation
it's all Greek to me
lul
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh
English only
/s
i'm just messing with ya
Don't apologise for a Muslim greeting bro
the emoji was meant to add a layer of unseriousness
plus the /s
I like how if a man stands up for his faith and his beliefs, he gets called out for "making a mountain out of a molehill" β real promising community you guys are building
you know like half this server is muslim right
that's not what was being said at all
cuz you accusing mods of something they didn't do
smh
lol
including mods
No one said shit about your religion lmao
All that's needed is an apology to me, and to us, but you are all too proud to do that, so this is continuing
you know mods are also unpaid volunteers
no one is saying you can't stand up for your faith, but you're also blowing something out of proportion
Why is he bringing religion into this?
he's just a troll, rule 1 btw
What's he trying to prove here?
Because "salaam" in its full form is "not allowed" according to the rules, @bronze lion, catch up
thats just not really true
Muslim greeting, Super tried to head off a potential non-english convo and missed the mark, shit happens
Then where's the apology, if that's true? "Sorry, I misunderstood, that is a beautiful greeting"
lmao
Tf
what they have to apologize AND glaze it too? lol
Yep, I told you, I can't get it out of you
we have to praise your greeting in an apology? that's a bit self-centered isn't it?
Lol
the way you're acting makes me not want to apologize on principle
'Im sorry we didnt realize youre so sensitive'
No one is compelled to say sry . In general that's how life is
no, i'm an adult, which it's seeming more and more like you're not
And u can't force them too
it wasn't even disrespect lol
@rancid snow You try following a religion and being not only told that the greeting is not allowed, but also a STARK refusal to apologise under any circumstance
no one said your greeting wasn't allowed
They did though
no, they didn't
English only check the rules blah blah
U want to change the rules?
What are u trying to do
it's been explained ad nauseum what happened, and it wasn't telling you your greeting wasn't allowed
They never said greetings aren't allowed
I know all you mods know each other and are backing each other, and I respect the collegiate feel, it's just a shame that none of you have enough humility to apologise for one of you trying to enforce a rule on a religious greeting
you aren't being attacked or punished for being Muslim
man
Well am I a MOD then?
bro, chill, we aren't going after your religion (or any)
because he wasn't enforcing the rules on your greeting dude
we aren't not allowing your greeting
Then why can't someone apologise to me?
if you explain it's a greeting, they will back off
It was their misunderstanding, why not?
Why would he?
It's his personal wosh
it wasn't a misunderstanding
Already did that mate
because apologies mean nothing if it's forced
They didn't apologise, I just had 5 clones jump in and defend each other
No one owes you an apology for anything, you're being a crybaby about trying to bring religion into it when no one said anything about your religion
U are no one to force an apology from anyone if they want they will
You are no one, full stop, mate
Can we please keep religion out of the conversation. @timber zealot the greeting is fine, sorry if you felt offended but let's please not push this argument any further.
Ok
Excellent, thank you for the apology
Now I will drop it. This is a man of humility
If super had made a disparaging remark about Muslims while also going to say English Only, then you'd have a case
LMAO you accept the most half-assed non-apology i swear
Exactly, and none of you are nice, apparently
neither are you
Not even enough to muster the semblance of an apology

I feel sorry for you, does that count?
Nah he doesn't want to make this case more worse bcz of some crybabys who assumes everything and brings religion into it when no one talked anything abt religion
I could muster one up
an apology isn't owed because nothing of what you're claiming happened to you
my apologies for something I didn't do
anyways hail satan π
hail satin
@cerulean bloom You jumped in to defend, so don't act like you did nothing
so? I can't defend?
Hail ice cream
Im an actual card carrying satanist. So.
because you're being mean to the mods and saying something that isn't true
hell yeah
I'm being mean, wow
I miss the brick pentagram in my backyard π
chat, what are yuo doing
Well read the chat yourself, I tried saying it was a greeting and I didn't even get a single apology
because nothing offensive actually took place, i'd be defending super even if he wasn't a mod because again -- you're the one being unreasonable in this situation
we're feeding the troll
They're bored and arguing
Im a member of the Satanic Temple
plz do not the troll
The most reasonable thing to do would be to say sorry for misunderstanding the greeting, idk why that is so hard for you all
Enable slow mode 
But we can't argue then
Where's the fun?
this is the most poppin general has been all day
TST?
I recommend you take a look at the chat where people were chastised for greeting one another in Arabic, with a greeting that is very common and easily googleable
based
its a little faded, I need a new one
you forced it into a religious issue, when it really wasn't and therein lies the rub
.
Clean under your nails bro π
Damn that the first time I'm seeing this
That's kinda the point π€
That looks awesome
Too true man
i'm sorry you felt offended by the incident, however our general policy is to keep things english only as to avoid misunderstanding in different languages causing issues
Um so like what's the use of this card?
Wow, abusing someone because of their religion
How rude
You need an apology I think madf0x
dont attack my religion π against the rules
Saying "sorry you felt this way" isn't really an apology but I'll take it
I do think I need an apology
now you're being a jerk tbh

you literally accepted W1ld's 'sorry you felt this way' apology
its a legally recognized religion so
Read the room, it was a joke.
I said I'll take it dude, what more do you want?
Yeah they do alot of 1a work
you don't understand lol
its pretty nice
I'm pretty sure Satanists don't actually worship Satan
just move on donut

"not really an apology, but I'll take it"??????????? seriouslY???????
π alright
mostly its a 'you donate and get a dope ass card as a thank you'
Adherents to Islam are, by several orders of magnitude, the most charitable people on Earth
Just FYI
I really don't like these situations
actually it's atheists
Not true, look it up
thats rad
We
no, this Saturday is Super Nuts
Go back to slagging off the UK instead
Ye
What sun god amirite?
it'd be really cool if you guys decided to hire me
if its saturday you should be asleep π
I will hire u
U get 10 rs every month
I will have enough to pay u for 2 yrs tht way idk
that's more than 0
Ye ye ikr
rounds to it though
But if u get 16.3 k salary we won't round it to 16
So I mean u save up 10 rs every month and u get to eat an icecream after 5 or 6 months
Seems like a good deal to me
i wish i could get ice-cream that cheap
It's 45 rs for the cone here
bare min ive seen is $1
Yes it's half of that here

She told me a while back
Alright then, happy birthday
Just so u know kartos u will be haunted in ur dreams by talking cats if u are lying
Just saying

I just built a openclaw bugbounty hunter that im gonna run 24/7 to torture triagers with slop reports
They deserve it




SO TRUE
yo quick question is parrot os and kali the same or?
alr thanks
use it to automate reports for curl
itll flag every line of code as vulnerable
I thought they closed the BB program
also they recently reopened I think
yeah i heard that
maybe with no bounty, jsut as VDP
but still AI slop
never stops
one guy didn't even redact the "sure! I'll write a clear report which..." and the "if you want, we can do X next" from the report

honestly my setup is kinda fire
It doesnt auto submit reports I still get to validate it
yeah exactly
its tiring bro, everything is false positives 
I tell it to validate and still, nothing is true
idk... I have it set to be EXTREMELY CRITICAL
maybe once in a blue moon, itll come up with an actual finding
you're gonna have fun with the 13 0click RCEs it'll find in curl then 
yeah this is cool
ask ai to write the regex

usually works for me but could be better
im staying away from curl lol
just gonna do paid BB
I tried and temporarily quit again
everyone's finding everything in the top ones
I found like, two high's over the weekend and both were duplicate
but tbf they were quite small scope and open source so someone mustve run claude on it, after all it was surface levle bugs
Nice, is it something big?
oo
before or after you reported?
b4
oof
that happened to me as well
found local privesc in unity
but
they refactored the code
0 bounty
trying to see if I can get a CVE for that version though
they said theyll discuss internally and let me know
is anyone else having issues in Academy 2.0 where you cannot scroll down one the web page? I tried 2 diffrent browsers and neither seem to want to scroll down on the page.
i was able to scroll fine on the legacy academy, but on the 2.0 i cant. Is there some setting i need to change.
the only way I can scroll is to press the "Go To Question button"
im sorry i lied it seems to only happen in edge now. chrome seems to be working now
