what do you mean nah

there is no vboxmanager inside virtualmachiens

that's what i meant. perhaps i misunderstood your question.

you said in vbox vm

Yeah, I have an arch machine already.

Arch with blackarch repos is good enough for me

But I am fine with that

I'm building a custom Black Arch equivelant on my arch machine. The last arch repo is like 3 years old and it just as bloated as Kali. 2,800 tools is a literal kitchen sink

I just chose paru

Genuine question I am not saying is better or worse

I don't remember my reasoning tbh. Had to do with minor differences between yay and paru

I actually did build a risk assessment engine that does discovery and research agents go out and find more information, then has a critic agent that reviews findings until they are consistent and cited, then it passes the findings to an analyst agent that writes a risk-analysis doc, which is then critiqued again and finally mapped against compliance frameworks.

I still have to manually review the outputs, and if the risk is poorly defined, it kicks out to a human for clarification

When's the actual release for the new S10 machine?

Originally it was 3 hours ago 1900 AEDT, says 0m 0s on my computer, then the machine wouldn't spawn at all and hasn't worked for 3 hours.

Logged in on my phone, says that the machine doesn't drop for another 8 hours 🫠

Always have been

#

That's uhh 19:00 sat GMT 0

#

Excluding time saving fuckery

so 8h u see is correct

Yeah that's at 0600 for me in Australia.

Why did the platform say it was releasing 3 hours ago.....

Now my computer brokey, I restarted it, opened in private browser, and the machine still shows 0m 0s and lets me hit the spawn button and fails....

I hope it fixes itself in 8 hours

facts on the devel machine i made a .txt file on the vm desktop to throw the user flag in while i went to find root

# latent oak The double-hyphen

Great observation! The double-hyphen is indeed a fascinating linguistic artifact β€” one that reveals the underlying patterns of AI-generated text. It's worth noting that as these tools become more prevalent, we'll likely see an increase in such tell-tale signs across digital communication platforms.
That said, it's important to approach this with nuance β€” not all double-hyphens indicate AI involvement, and we should be careful not to over-index on any single signal.
