but you would have to find people to buy it because i feel like if someone is getting a thinkpad they would do that themselves but not sure..

#

i just have a macbook air with arch with like 8-4 cores

it’s aight

iron galleon
#

beginners just want a thinkpad and some people just want to be hackers, i was like that at a point in time

iron galleon

imo older thinkpads aren't good computers unless ur using external resources n shi

then they're fine

do u guys think Security+ is a must or can it be easily replaced with more hands-on stuff like letsdefend and homelab projects

iron galleon

i mean companies get to know a lot abt you from just normal chatter, but having an iphone isn't a huge issue threat model-wise

even for hackers, assuming most of them aren't even gray hat

If the job you want requires sec+

#

Take it

lets say, SOC analyst L1

id literally quit if that wasnt just a worst outcome for me

yeah to be honest i have no clue i think i could just back up what @mystic harbor said 😔

I get frowny faces for sleeping at work too much as is lul

it sounds fun but i imagine it could get boring overtime

rancid snow
#

been doing it for like 9 years and I was done with it at like year 2

Hi everyone, I have a quick question. For those of you who have ever opened a ticket to request that your school email be added to access the student plan, how long does it usually take for them to respond to that ticket? I just want to know if I've done everything correctly. Thanks!

bronze lion
#

I would say u should get by 1 to 2hrs

#

It's a wild guess tho

rare monolith
#

does the school have to partner with htb in order for the schooo email to give the discount tho ?

that would suckkk

AI has difficulty with long running tasks, its also better that it checks in with you periodically so it doesnt go off the rails and destroy your whole system

so

thats funny

my message word for word was like

"im leaving, i pre-approve of all edits you want to do, as long as it doesnt destroy my system"

# latent oak Dear lord that seems unwise

i mean techniclly no one can do anything because they are not open to the internet i just have a big ol rack i bought and bought a bunch of networkign devices , rasberri pi and a PC for my proxmox cluster that runs kubernetes , cisco ASA , manged switches and so on and so on and so on... i use it for educational purpuses and only run it in a LAN

Sometimes I spice it up with an exclamation mark

rancid snow

Yep

1Password fer life

but they are devices that i have to login to through the console to manage them so i just always look at the piece of paper and get into them

when i was a degenerate kid i wrote my first hack that searched for a certain file type and read it and copied it and sent it to me via email i had burner email details in the code

latent oak
#

Until someone breaches your network and has unfettered access to everything… but you do you

hoary dawn
#

the file of course contained a password and email

rancid snow
rare monolith
#

well

#

everything is pretty isolated imo but you never know..

latent oak
#

So, the logic is that anyone can get in if they want, so I’ll just hang the keys by the door with a big neon sign saying “keys”

rare monolith
#

the devices dont have a www page tho i disabled that..

#

you can only get through the console

#

on all of them

latent oak
#

Ok

rancid snow
#

just saying there are possible routes for bridging that gap even if youre not exposing everything, theres 0 reason to just have your internal network passwords out in the open

#

you can just NOT do that lol

rare monolith
#

ill make the repo private

Like we all know that a dedicated attacker can break in, but that’s not a reason to leave the doors open

don't get discouraged if you're stuck on easy boxes. they're hard af when you start out.

just keep going.

Some “easy” boxes are tricky

rapid badger

you are not speedrunning anything by yappin on discord for 8h straight

tbh i would get academy it helps, either that or vip+ and try to manually figure out the retired boxes

I’m like 8000km from that

that guy is right tho i should go to sleep get well rested and just grind

One of these days, I’ll hack again

you gotta change your name to Enter when you come back to it

I’ll live stream, and you can all laugh at my degraded skillz

theres this plugin i have thats good for command remembering

it puts the invisible text in front of your text suggesting what you might be headed towards

Autosuggest

i honestly forgot the damn name, i think its the terminal i use, Zsh

Omzsh

late sleet
#

zsh-autosuggest??

latent oak
#

That’s the one

hoary dawn
#

seems to be it that thing helped me a ton so far

autosuggestions and syntax highlighting are the two most goated zsh plugins

latent oak

They are

claude is almost done with my cyber client, home of my cyber library and then i had it make a simplified wifi monitor station UI that im going to get working on in VS code when i get back from my sisters concert, i really need to work on my networking insight more

thats my latest module ive been on, intro to networking 🫡

rancid snow
#

please never say cyber client and cyber library ever again

hoary dawn

lmfaooo

#

i like the touch that they both have honestly ok what about Cybrary

rancid snow

already a thing

#

and that thing is just as cringe

hoary dawn

🤣

#

ill have my agents work on it hold up

#

my little robot employees

rancid snow
#

please never call them robot employees

#

youre making using AI look bad

hoary dawn
#

well i knew you wouldnt like Cyber Staff

rustic carbon
#

i could think of worse terms for exploited robots, hahaha

yea i could call them IT (intelligence tech)

Oooh I want claude to build me a red teaming platform

latent oak
#

Haha

#

You are right to be upset

#

“Did you read the documentation?” “No, I didn’t” “what caused you to skip it?” “nothing. I answered based on general knowledge”

pliant pumice
#

Does anyone know a box i can do which let's me pivot around

latent oak
#

A ballerina box

rancid snow
#

at least not with claude or codex yet

latent oak
#

I had it today

#

First time

#

Really shook me.

rancid snow
#

oh no wait, codex did try to use some outside knowledge when I specifically wanted it to evaluate stuff only from provided data, so there was that. I was able to stop and fix it though

#

but that was a case of trying to google to cheat what I wanted to test for

latent oak
#

Just a reminder that human review is still required…

rancid snow
#

absolutely

#

its the cardinal rule

#

for any big changes I also fork what Im doing, have it preform changes in the copy, and then review it compared to the original

#

that way if anything does fuckup or the approach was simply wrong I go back

latent oak
#

Basically it said that Sonatyoe Nexus Firewall would only detect known malware signatures… this did not seem correct, so I went and looked…

rancid snow
#

oh ye ive had it make some faulty assumptions about tooling as well. I make sure to point out any features I want used/evaluated

fierce vale
#

"lets try this again" and does it the same way

latent oak
#

I’ve definitely seen chatgpt continuously give me instructions for a different version of firewall or switch software… no matter how many times I tell it to remember my version numbers

rancid snow
#

Right now Im a fan of having it write to a Plan.md for any proposed changes, review it, and then have it implement changes while updating a Progress.md at each steps while recording any 'pain points' it has. Tends to stick to what I want done better and give me ideas on what to change as well.

latent oak
#

I do that

#

Detailed

rancid snow
#

Ill also pit different agents against each other and critque the Plan.md which is highly amusing

latent oak
#

Me too

rancid snow
#

Claude and Codex will argue but concede points and revise suggestions. Both will just completely scathingly destroy whatever gemini writes while it folds and is just like 'claudes plan is significantly better than mine and addresses several critical gaps'

latent oak
#

my “dream” skill has an architect write a plan, and then a securtiy expert and a librarian review it and make changes… it will go through up to 3 rounds of review before it is approved

#

The plan is highly detailed and optimized for max parallelism

rancid snow
#

thats neat. I havnt really gotten into skills or making subagents yet

latent oak
#

When I build, I launch as many coders as possible

#

Then code-reviewrs and unit testers, then a redteam agent

#

All quality, code review, and security gates must pass before committing

#

It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty damn good

rancid snow
#

Nice, I havnt actually tried having it review its own code, just dabbled in having one agent review the code of a different agent

latent oak
#

That’s what I mean

rancid snow
#

ah gotcha

latent oak
#

Each agent is a separate context, so they act as new eyes

#

The skill just orchestrates the agent calls

#

That’s how I can build pieces in parallel… it’s very similar to swarm or superpowers

sharp shuttle
#

Start your own companies

latent oak
sharp shuttle
#

If you guys are managing multiple agents why cant you make money doing it?

latent oak
#

I am getting paid now

rancid snow

Genuinely I could see my project going that angle, but I need results

sharp shuttle
#

Undercut the boss baby

latent oak
#

Running my own company is very risky

#

But who knows… in the future

sharp shuttle
#

In what regard would there be more risk than current risk?

#

you are already managing a hydra

#

its going to bite you back at some point

latent oak
#

No health insurance, no regular paycheck, minimum 60 hour work week

sharp shuttle

Yes

this is probably the last year anybody can rise above poverty with technology

latent oak
#

It’s always a backup plan I guess…

sharp shuttle
#

after this year i think its pretty much a done deal

latent oak
#

Umm… I think you will find that a select few will become uber wealthy

sharp shuttle
#

its fewer and fewer with each tech cycle

latent oak
#

Yes

sharp shuttle
#

this one has almost no winners

#

you see that too, yeah?

latent oak
#

My plan is to win… i have no viable alternatives

#

🙂

sharp shuttle
#

the very people creating the tech will unemploy everybody else

latent oak
#

Yeah, it’s going to be a hard time…

#

I’ll have to find an AI-proof backup

#

Debt collection or something

turbid goblet
#

my plan is to lose so when i win i feel good about myself

#

just so you know, im on the board of a company developing drones that can do roofing projects

we are all super fucked man

Lol! Amazing! I can’t wait to see that.

#

where do i get the vpn on academy? i dont see it anymore in the new UI?

sharp shuttle
#

Give a drone a platter and a nail gun and it can do the job of 8 mexicans

latent oak
#

Interesting, i want to see them install drywall

sharp shuttle
#

nah let boston dynamics do that one

#

thats a humanoid droid job

latent oak
#

I can’t wait to see nailgun drones… sounds like nothing could go wrong

sharp shuttle
#

well its not like its perfect but we all said ai videos would never by hollywood quality in our lifetime

rancid snow
#

its okay just set it to the opposite of civilian targeting

latent oak
#

Did I turn that on or off? Oh well!

sharp shuttle
#

The roofing drone is actually a good idea

#

its super feasible

#

roofs are to spec

rancid snow
sharp shuttle
#

strip it, deploy a drone on each face

latent oak
#

You’d still need something to get the materials up there… shingles are heavy

rancid snow
sharp shuttle
#

they are roughly the size of a flycart

#

its not like a dinky mavic

latent oak
#

I was going to say they’d be noisy, but hey it’s probably better than the roofers next door blaring Guns & Roses at 7am

sharp shuttle
#

yeah they are indeed loud

#

8 props

latent oak
#

Welcome to the jungle!!!

sharp shuttle
#

we can just put a speaker on the drones so we dont lose that feel

latent oak
#

So considerate

sick gate
#

Perhaps a stuka drone with the wailing siren

sharp shuttle
#

The ones they used at the front of the ukraine-russia war would fly through playing wailing sirens to stricken the residents

#

those things were so loud i couldnt imagine

#

china also uses similar tech for psa's

latent oak

The ones at the olympics were bad enough

i got mine just as a starter drone but then it reminded me im scared of outside so i gave it up as an idea of a hobby

sharp shuttle

it can run for a minute or longer

very very loud

basically a fog horn

turbid goblet

that was an idea i considered but i dont got a license so my drone cant be more than 250g

#

dont know how id accomplish that

sharp shuttle

good job following the rule kami

#

most people dont even know

latent oak
#

I live near an airport, so the rules are pretty tight

sharp shuttle

the rules: you cannot fly without ATC

the laws are tight now in general lol

with their app atleast

fringe vapor

Rooting is mavic 1 and prior

or just build one

I’m less than 3 nautical miles from the airport… no drones for me

building fpv right now is as expensive as ever

also if you are new, building is a terrible idea

buy a controller and go in sims

you dont have a gaming pc?

the sims are not very heavy

i gave my gaming pc to my mom bc i was addicted to tarkov

but idk about giving a gaming pc to a mother

i could give my mom an amazon fire stick and she would be satisfied
