LMAO
Well, it was nice knowing you...
i wasnt gonna say anything
You can't be here if you're 16.
Srsly?
Oh wait
Iβll run that real quick

π«‘
I could be wrong
Maybe you have to be over 13 to be here or over 18, I can't remember.
all my elders are uncs! - the yuncs
and for the record eggzy i assume you know much more about life than me, but i understand this DFIR stuff very well when you are not LE and working with a civil license for investigation. They stick you with the fucked up stuff
Just take my word for what it is worth to you, moving on
hey y'all, is someone experiencing can't spawn targets? i am currently doing CWES and i can't spawn the target
It's down
Did bro really think he can get around it by deleteing his message? 
contact support, maybe?
18+ to be in this house unless mom says it's okay
not responding
It's offline y'all you will have to wait β€οΈ lol
Brath, im getting pizza, speak weeb to me 
Well the morning has been wasted since I couldn't play any HTB and soon I've to go to work. π
I got SNAP benefits until September!
6 months
Whew. I spent hours on the phone with them
you could quit and keep playing htb
enjoy your pizza senpai
Awesome idea! Until I have no money left to subscribe to HTB anymore

Always down to clown
Hey everyone! Iβm trying to make the jump into cybersecurity and wanted to introduce myself. Iβve spent about 11 years working in data centers, including around 4 years managing a small-scale data center. My experience includes working with networking (configuring switches, troubleshooting issues), maintaining and diagnosing servers, and working in Linux environments.
Lately Iβve been focusing more on security and hands-on practice, and Iβve completed 18 Hack The Box machines so far. Iβm continuing to learn and build skills in penetration testing and security fundamentals.
Iβm here to learn, connect with others in the field, and would really appreciate any advice, resources, or guidance youβre willing to share. Thanks!
Welcome!
Thank you!
best chance of connecting with someone else is if they like your vibe on a personal level
typically the people who aint always yapping are on to smtn
not meant to be offensive but like, for networking, this channel is okay for beginners
beyond that i would suggest using htb and getting stats
Curious, what do you exactly mean by this sentence? I didn't fully understand
how someone spends their time
like if they're typically always chatting, then the less they're doing technically
unless theyre very experienced over time
im just speaking from experience
from the connections ive derived here
more of the value comes out of people who dont speak extremely often
being one myself im even saying that
for example, the guy who introduced me to maldev isn't frequent
Now I get it! I thought you meant that the people who're not always talking are suspicious or to be avoided.. when you said "on to something".
oh nah
i do jackshit compared to the connections ive made
we only became friends bc he liked my vibe
Appreciate the feedback!
np
Also curious, did you get job thanks to HTB? Because I got that feeling from your text
no, but i got introduced to a lot of content and opportunities outside of htb
htb is probably gonna be the reason i get a job tho
Interested, do you mind to elaborate?
malware development
i got introduced to maldev academy as well, which i had to pay for
however i got mentored
ok how long do these shortages last?
like the labs not working
that's 3 out of the 6 days I have
That's nice! Maldev seems cool, but I can imagine it takes up a lot of time and effort. And I think Maldev Academy isn't very cheap either π
Would you love to do it professionaly?
the value i derived from the connection is absolutely priceless though
yeah i think so but
i can't speak on it to a far extent as i'm not amongst the very experienced
Btw did learning maldev help you or gave great value for HTB? Like writing your own exploits and evasion
if ur passionate abt breaking into shit maldev would be enjoyable theres just a learning curve that makes it painful, but for hacking overall, absolutely
Writing your own exploits is a bit rare in the pen testing world
tuff user
i had the right background imo bc i was a computer programmer before hacker imo
debatable bc i started hacking at 14 but didn't like take it far until 18-19
What do you mean? Lol
Yeah I know but how about red teaming, no?
its cool
Writing your own exploits technically falls under the red teaming category.
Blue team = system hardening
Purple team = bridging the gap between the two teams (i.e., doing both).
And I believe Windows usually requires custom exploits most of the time to avoid signatures
imo if u have a certain idolization, yeah i would expect maldev to be apart of red teaming and id suggest it to anyone with that kind of idol
Yeah, it was an interesting box. Seeing multi-step boxes in action was nice. Most of the active boxes use lateral movement and privilege escalation.
id do blue teaming as a job but my heart is in red tbh
im still doing blue team academy shi
just in prep for job
ahh u use arch
blackarch
Yeah, Windows does use signature detection.

This week we're heralding the arrival of National Pizza Month (aka every month ever?) with a true Binging with Babish conceptual reach - ...
I'm doing HTB on Kali. I have an arch laptop but I am making it a customized black arch equivelant. Project is kinda on the backlog right now. About to get a new, dedicated PC for a daily driver and put Qubes on it. From there, I might turn my 4060 machine into a black arch PC as well.
ok
the hacking environment debate is pretty silly
whether someone prefers to use blackarch, kali, exegol, etc
pentesting
I like OSINT and forensics.
i like exodia
π
if i were ever using the blackarch repo id prefer to curate my own environment 100%
Haven't tried it, yet. Mainly been learning how to explore gpg keys, openssl, and file metadata. Still getting my feet wet.
That's true, but I'm quite curious about what kind of virtualization people are using. I'm planning to pick up KVM soon as I heard so many good things regarding it.
Deep dish is the best pizza btw
go ahead i encourage it
most people wouldnt bc theyre religiously attached to vmware for some reason
bc it just werks
im saying the joke bc exoida is ahh
Virtualization can be a pain for certain GPU heavy tasks unless you use something like proxmox
I'm currently using VMWare but it's definetely not perfect.
i use virtualbox rn just out of convenience and it's foss iirc
if yall use windows like me
True but I think you can pass your GPU to the VM with KVM, yes? That's what I've heard.
In fact, I had to go bare metal on my machine for cipher cracking because I got tired of fighting with VirtualBox and wsl. I just couldn't take it anymore.
i use windows 10 iot enterprise ltsc
You can absolutely pass your GPU through but it can be finicky if you're not using certain VMs.
I don't even think you can pass it through at all on VirtualBox if I'm not mistaken.
wsl is easier to pass it through on but it sucks for certain legacy programs and it's just terrible overall imo.
Tbf, only time I'd need is using hashcat anyways. I use VM only to play HTB basically
pew
i thaught u said its good
Yeah, I had to use a lot of hashcat recently for NCL. I had to go bare metal. I was wasting too much time otherwise.
if i do all the easy boxes do i need to do all the medium boxes for pro hacker
to get hacker i just did easy boxes + 1 medium box a few months ago
It is for certain tasks. Overall, I don't like it.
yo gey in dm
if u use windows get in dm
I kicked windows to the curb. Kept treating me like a guest in my own house and I don't like that.
Some people even rent a VPS just dedicated for cracking hashes.
Not trying to spend money on a virtual private server lol
Wassup guys
alr
Yoooo
Yeah if there's no need lol. Bare metal is more than enough for myself too.
How u doing bro
Good, you?
My academy just ruined my morning π€‘
Hi world
Yeah, I'm Linux full time now lmao
Which distro?
Me too, brother!
is there anyone else who just cant connect to the machines?
Ouch. Sometimes you gotta step back for a few and get a fresh outlook
Yea
its been 30 mins, i have tried changing regions
I'll never touch Windows again on my personal computer. Too many bad experiences and I'm so accustomed to Linux now. Only for work laptop I have to use Windows.
Have you tried checking other machines? Could be a problem on that particular box?
i like windows
u can run more apps in it
yea i tried switching machines, all of em i cant connect, i tried changing to different regions too.
I feel that 100%. I am hesitant to even work for a company that makes me use Windows at this point. That's how disillusioned I've become with Microsoft Windows
Are you using the pwn box or ovpn?
openvpn
spiderkash 
Love hacking Windows tho ;D Windows & AD targets are my favorites!
Try killing ovpn and starting up a new one?
Windows and AD targets definitely seem pretty good but the change in syntax gets on my nerves lol
ye tried that too. ran out of ideas now.
Ping Google while tunneled through ovpn
You got a connection?
The machines have been out since the morning, man.
That was my initial guess is that the boxes are down.
ohhh so they are all down?
even prolabs down
Yes, labs and prolabs at least. Some people even said Academy instances might be down as well.
Honestly, ruined my morning. Woke up early to play HTB, but couldn't. Now I don't have much longer until I'll need to get ready to go to work.
Yeah, your Ms looks fine on those pings. Gotta be the boxes. Don't share your IP though lol
makes sense. that sucks.
thats google ip
We can see your tun0 interface in that pic

dam
Just kill the ovpn. You're probably fine lmao
none of yall DDOS please π
Send a bazillion packets rn
Ransomware inc. I demand tree fiddy
Lochness, is that you?
my reaction rn
LMAO
Waiting for lochness crunchies
I think he's traumatized
He wasn't ready for that top-level political investigatory role.
Bro is paying attention. He never wants to be accused of not being focused
still getting issues?
Pick him up in a space coupe, I don't let my plug walk
yes i still cant connect. people said machines been down since morning.
To be serious tho, make sure you dont have two VPNs going. If you try to connect your HTB VPN from within your VM while a VPN is open on the host it will likely fail.
no. just the one. the issue is before i even reach the vpn, i cant even join the room.
Boxes are down if other people are confirming that.
Say what now?
I haven't connected today, so if the news is true then that is prob it. Ill grab my laptop
This is not THM. We don't have rooms here!
Lol
These are boxes, sir.
I was very confused at first
like when u click join u can join it and machine becomes active regardless the vpn
I've left a message in our infra channel
I got so much crap to do this weekend.
NCL practice games need to be finished up, project for college, and I want to do more HTB.
VGA
DVI
Hutubs
Prank call from program called phone jacke, comes on channel 4
No it's GitHubs
Nah we sell marble
It plays doovde
Nah just marble
Same, im moving tomorrow morning
π

RIP. 
I need a doovde player for my doovde
U don't get sarcasm do u?
I destroy sarcasm!
DVD is ancient tech. People use streaming now. Its so that we can be happy unburdened by heavy DVDs and the responsibility of ownership.
Btw where are u from?
Rust devs would hate it
US and A
OOO ESS EH
I'm from Pakistan
Nice to meet u π
Nice to meet u too π
Great
Yea btw do u guys think that Pakistanis are terrosits or something?
I met a lot of US citizen they said I'm from a terrosit nation π₯² π₯·π»
Don't listen to the assholes
Yea anyway what are ur qualifications?
The biggest terrorists in the world are USA and Israel, of course their rhetoric is that everyone else is a terrorist.
That's their entire narrative
Lmfao
But anyway, before this turns into a political thing
Full send eh
We don't discuss politics here
Yea I think that's cause of Trump mostly US in itself is a good nation
Yea
No Europeans here?
I know that. Chat seems mostly american
Yeah, let's definitely steer clear of religion and politics. There's radicals on all sides. Last thing we need is more polarization.
Yeah, so if you buy swag you get extorted upon delivery.
Btw I'm currently doing CCNA and then I'll do cyberops is it a good plan for soc?
Polarization provides potential difference. We're about to charge spacetime
"certifications": [
"<strong>CCSP (Certified Cloud Security Professional)</strong>",
"<strong>SSCP (Systems Security Certified Practitioner)</strong>",
"<strong>CompTIA SecurityX (CASP+)</strong>",
"<strong>CySA+ (Cybersecurity Analyst)</strong>",
"<strong>Pentest+</strong>",
"Security+",
"Network+",
"ITILv4",
"Project+",
"ECES"
],
And a Bachelor and Masters degree in Cybersecurity
These are my qualifications
You should do sherlocks too
I'm form Pakistan here if I'm getting Cisco certs it's a Golden opportunity for me
That's great
Not much institutes here that offer cyber security certs that are globally recognized
Cisco certs can certainly get you a decent job. But I would still learn non-Cisco routing.
Which city are you from in Pakistan?
Lahore has some superb IT institutions I've heard from people here.
LUMS for example
Ik after the certs I plan to do bachelor's in IT
No I'm from mirpur Azad Kashmir
Lahore is kinda far from here can't go there
I see
That's what I'm doing. Almost done with a B.S. then I am going to get certs to pair with it.
I plan on going for a master's and maybe a bachelor degree in psychology as well.
Great I'm a beginner btw I almost know nothing so I thought that I should join some servers talk to people and build an understanding
Do HTB starting-point
Here's some of my experience, but I'm still having trouble finding a job in cybersecurity
I just mean that the cyber industry doesn't hold certs to the same standard that it used to 10+ years ago. Broad understanding and hands-on experience seems to be a big help. HTB provides a heap of that. Although, I could be very mistaken regionally or from blue team perspective
But you're going to need to do quite a bit of learning about network fundamentals and the OSI model as well.
Yea gonna buy htb premium in some time
I'm pretty sure my resume sucks.
That's why I'm doing CCNA
we're cooked π
Just need to build it in a way that the tools that scan resumes can read it properly.
And work on a portfolio
What are ur qualifications?
I wrote my own resume generator. It takes a json file, and uses PHP to generate the PDF.
scroll up
Yeah but the tools they use to scan resumes get hung up if it's not formatted right.
It was big and white, giggidy
My resume gets text extracted just perfectly
Fair but I just don't click anything these days 
Here's how it finally renders
Btw can any of u use AndoRat?
I got sick and tired of having to manually make resumes in word processors
So I coded myown resume generator from basic json file
are u from usa?
Damn that would be considered a solid resume with actual skills here in Pakistan
Yes
damn
@worthy cargo I'm guessing you have experience with GRC?
I don't have experience with GRC that much.
Mostly engineering type role
Dev role
Well you could really stand out if you learn how to properly document risks using the NIST RMF
Can u teach me π₯²
I see
you is the first merican that i hear talking like this
Why rat when you could not
Likewise
Just learn how to make risk heatmaps, gap analyses, etc.
Apology accepted
damn, what a nice person
u are very good guy
What did she do?
Btw he's the first American who's nice to me π₯²
π
99% of governments are corrupt. We just have to try to make changes for the better.
I WAS NICE
Is he a he or a she?
I'm a He.
Exactly
Yea u too I mean
The ex who upset you that you want to trojan lmao
Regular normal human male baby boy man dude homie bro
Ok
You're not alone. I'll have to check your structure and see how it compares to mine.
I'm an American and I'm here to be nice π
Ok π
Seen dozens of folks come in htb general trying to hack someone's phone
What did you code it in? Python? Rust?

π
I think like 4 people have added me trying to get me to give them a path to be malicious script kiddies
Just in the last week
I'm getting sleepy. I worked and then I played MtG at the game store for like 7 hours
It happens frequently.
Btw I'm working on andorat wanna hack my GFs phoneπ«ͺ
"Can you tell me how to hack an Instagram account?"
If you think she's cheating break up
Long distance relationship
My younger sister messaged me once asking me to hack her husband's phone. I told her flat out that I can't do it because I'm white hat, ethical hacker.
hey
And what she's asking me to do is illegal
I'm merely a beginner don't know much about tech
The juice is not worth the squeeze.
@cloud rapids fr fr talking about that will get you banned in this server. drop it.
I would've asked for a 100 bucks
Hi everyone, I've been trying to spawn machines for the past 2+ hours but they're stuck on "Machine is spawning. Please stand by..." I've tried both US VIP+ 4 and EU VIP+ 1 servers, and it happens with different machines (DevArea, Pirate). My VPN connection is working fine. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Everything has a price tag
Ok
I was making a joke about random people asking you to hack stuff for them lol
Not me.
not workingg
Dont follow your urge to take an easy path to hack someone. You will end up getting hacked yourself and mining crypto for some creeps botnet, or arrested.
Pretty sure all the boxes are down except starting point
Bruh
Yes scroll up, check the acad chans, see the other machine channel.
I refuse to feed myself or my family the fruits of dishonesty. It only breeds a corrupt life. I'm not going to jail for no amount of money!
I been to prison before
I have no desire to go back.
I heard that millions of people get hacked daily it's very rare if somebody catches u
I need to work on it projects this weekend. I just did 3 laptop refreshes: My DJ rig, my windows IT work rig, and an ubuntu machine for cyber lab stuff.
can sum1 help my target machine isnt spawning
Servers are down for the moment. Wait patiently and try agin later
im connected to their vpn aswell
$2B. That should be enough to cover legal fees and live comfortably. π
ohh ty
when can i start working again?
Because of Chain of Custody, for starters. Most people delete the very evidence that would help them catch the person. Secondly, international crime is harder to prosecute.
Welcome to the HTB Status Page
all you need is one good ransomware though
then you're set for life
She's indian Pakistan and India are rivals nobody is gonna do nothing π
is it just me or is anyone else having issues spawing the target VMs? specifically for the WEP attack module
yeah same
Bro is a PKer fr.
ooof, someone put up a banner or an auto reply 
same x2
Servers are having issues right now. Spawning machines is failing for everyone. Wait and try again, or contact support for an ETA perhaps.
im assuming there is some issue, and HTB is working on it. i will check back later π
i was red in UO, no one here knows what that means
status page says everything is A-OK 

status page says eveything is operational
Dan the man is going to sleep everyone
"Due to funding issues, the status page isn't being updated."
Alone?
Wave goodbye
This is a joke, don't take it seriously. Lol
If I have hacker rank, do I need to do anything here to verify?
I want to say mean things but I won't. Yes, alone.
Just verify account once and link it to discord/htb and you're set.
Just kidding bro gn
Bro ur trying to go to bed with a rat on a phone, take a seat xD
Bro π
I have a job interview tomorrow at a upscale gym as a sales associate position. Let's see what happens. I need a job so bad.
Best of luck
I wonder how long I'll have to do odd jobs until I find something in cyber
U're gonna make it one day
Thanks
ive been trying to make a script for deauth and had help from a friend + ai however im using iw for locating networks is there a better way to do it? I'm getting errors with it. Otherwise is there an existing script like this i can copy how they do it?
You could always get an IT help desk job to start or work for an internet company to gain some traction.
good luck vro
One look at my resume and they say I'm over qualified.
Pwngotchi, pineapple, or flipper zero.
A lot of people do help desk to start
How long does it take for a "Machine is spawning. Please stand by..." when connected with openvpn?
Then make a dumbed down resume
I am working in a factory tho
The same amount of time as anything else. Server infrastructure is having issues right now.
Oh btw what are ur qualifications?
I'll have to do that. Easy. I just need to have AI generate me a new json file :D. Then it's just βββΆ php html.php resume.cleaned.json and PDF is generated alongside a DOCX file.
I have been hacking in my free time for 7ish years
im trying to make it function on bash. if i use theirs might i have issues with dependencies or hardware classes etc?
You got a raspberry pi laying around?
hi
Just make a pwngotchi
Im getting my CPTS when I have time to finish the path lmao
Copy. Wasnt sure if it was operator error. SStill could be I guess...
Working 50+ hours a week hinders me
Hey I've seen u somewhere elseπ€¨
Nahh
sadly not, i am using plug in nic
hm ?
Just quit your job
Hy
You might be able to make a pwngotchi in a VM? Not sure.
or some telegram post
Ur hardwork is gonna give u a payout someday won't go wasted
wher hasan crys
hmm okay
I get paid about $30/hr I need to keep my housing xD
I don't use Twitter it's banned in my country
lmk if u have any other ideas, ill take a look
nice
In this week's episode we're in the great state of Idaho at Depot Grill in Twin Falls, having a bash at their formidably named 'Train Wreck Challenge'...
Contestants get half an hour in which to finish four eggs, a pound of sausage and six hefty pancakes. If successful, the $35 meal is FREE and you get your hands on a smart winner's shirt...but...
Holy shizboo
Twitter is full of annoying bots anyway
Look at that amount of food
evry amarican meal from what i hear
Beard is a G.
@glad crystal
I like his feeds. He isn't a nasty beast like some eaters
Pancakes are his greatest weakness. I assume he didn't finish this challenge.
I just keep the staccato in the concealed holster
Ever seen pakistani breakfast?
Enlighten me
It's pretty accurate
I love Pakistani breakfast foods
I live in Texas we have a large Pakistani community here
Uh chickpeas and beef nihari and cow feet drenched in oil fat and bone marrow with some naans π
You lost me at cow feet.
Halwa Poori is my favorite
Wow how do u know about halwa puri?π€¨
I do love Mexican and Indian food though.
Don't knock it until you try it. I haven't, but I'm willing.
I just told you
Fr cow feet or goat feet it's called paye here
Scroll up
You lost me at the "feet" part.
Oh okok
Ik π
Pig feet is dirtier.
It's not feet. It's ankle bones that have gelatin on them, barely any meat. It's a very sticky thing and you have to wash your hands afterwards
@worthy cargo dm me I'll show u how's halwa puri made here in Mirpur
Interesting
Love biryani, and korma, and saagwala
Is Oopsie an active machine???
The GOATπ₯πΏ
Stickiness depends on how u cook it
No it doesn't.
But that stickiness is the real flavor
No matter how you cook it, the gelatin from the ankle bones remain
The gelatin is what makes it sticky
Now my friend's dad has a restaurant I have tried goat paye there they're not sticky at all
yeah]
It's where glue comes from 
No, it's not. Starting point won't load now either.
He finished all the pancakes! Holy shit, record time!
Feet

Bro u look like some famous Austrian painter π
yeah i noticed
It's not me
That's what she said
She did?
I'm trying to get his attention
Hail @flint copper πΏπ₯

No mirpur Azad Kashmir
Oh I don't π
Where are u from?
You can last longer than 10 min
i am also from paksitan not north korea 
Are u Kim jong un cause he's the one who only uses internet thereπ
Oh which city?

Ok what are ur qualifications?
college student 
Mods asleep?
Practical help desk
Btw where are u from?
I love my boyfriend omg
Upstairs
Heβs so adorable
@heady sage knows what's up
π«ͺ
I also have a PHD
The Earth is a Triangle.
a pretty huge dick
A poser hater degree
Flat Earthers and Globers are both wrong
Triangle.
Or maybe a cube.
Yeah a cube
The Earth is a cube.
Nah man its a square who told that it's a cube?
Guys I think mods are asleep, let's spam cat gifs
whats ur qualification btw
Finished college doing CCNA
@obtuse fern So you finally banned him huh?
Banned who
i will also give mine 12th exam
Who did we ban
Great
before WW3
They banned some Nick Fuentes larper that kept insulting everyone including C1oud
Lmao
He was larping as a hacker too
I hope they did, that was painful with him around
I told him to apply for work abroad
Oh, that's why he's gone. 
It was kind of funny for like the first few times
But then it just got anoying
I blocked the first time I saw it
What did u see?
"hOw dOeS L1 cAcHe wOrK? PrOvE yOuRsELf!"
I literally could not talk about my boyfriend without him saying some shit like βEwww grossβ
He didnt really do anything "Fuentes-ey" from what I saw. He was just annoying af. And rude.
A troll that was bad at being a troll
So yeah he had to go
Who had to go where?
Make sure to remind him he is hoeless π
Uh huh
He had to go back to reading his books
I will not repeat the things that person said
I went on a pro Israel server and said that the Iron Dome was a tiny umbrella and I got banned π
No need
Next tell them ur smoking on that yahu pack
He was basically just struggling with an inferiority complex. He is supposedly learning about OSes and hardware but wants to argue with people that are past that and already diving into actual Proof of Concept pen testing.
Uh forget about it
What are you pro?
No spam gopher gifs
Pringles?
I am Professional.
He's talking about me I think
Pro getting that bread
pringles
Pro getting hoes
Professional mother
Just realized
Only thing anyone should be pro
No,lays
Your profile picture looks familiar
Ok π
You are now Fake Pringles
Had issues earlier with machine not starting, seems to be working now!
Wassup
My attempt at trying to a guy who's ignoring my bounty attention
Packed him into grok
send me the server, ima gonna go say the same π
What about sugar one?
@terse dirge have you switched your gaming PC from windows to linux?
Yeah
That too
Nice
It's arch btw
Yup. Kicked windows out last week officially.
Cachy or just normal arch?
Can u do gaming on Linux?
Good same
Then crimson desert dropped and I'm kinda feeling left out
Yes
Is it better than windows?
Valve is genuinely the best company out there
Yes
In many ways, yes
Mo
More the devs fault for putting denuvo on it last minute though
Gaming on Linux is much better than on Windows
Which distro should I use?
Yeah, I have some games I would like to play but I'll just have to settle for OSRS mobile rn.
Bro if Valve wasn't there, linux would not be as big as it is today
Genuinely
Steam has come a long way
with a worst anticheat, but yes
Proton is excellent
Really?
Real arch Linux
Valve carries the whole gaming industry on its shoulder
Whichever looks prettier to you
Only my GF looks pretty to me
Arch cuz arch
How to pick a distro? Question of the century.
i use ubuntu for work
Its alright, Valve's CS2 is one of a million games which they offer on Steam
KCD2 released a hot fix a while back that broke all controller support on Linux
Qubes = security + pen testing capabilities
Kali or Arch = pen testing
Good thing is all Valve games are native on linux cause ofcourse
Roll 3 d6 then pick from distro watch
I use a distro that requires the least amount of maintenance on my part. A distro that easily installs and then gets out of your way
Those are my recommendations
I think I'm just going to crack an older version atp though
I use Cachy
Its pretty good
true, i just play cs2 and from month to month
Didn't have to do much setup
I play weekly for the skin drops
FreeBSD?
Nah. You can't game on FreeBSD
Ah a fellow fedora user
Arch is pretty easy to install with archinstall and doesn't require much maintenance unless you want bleeding edge
I miss cs 1.6
Nope
Can u play games on Kali Linux?π
I'm a Kubuntu user
then again, most of my work is on web security so burp suite is my best friend
Words cannot describe my love for Valve
Almost all games are plug-n-play cause of Steam's proton layer
Debian 16 years, and since 2016, I been on Kubuntu
You're not supposed to
Kali is meant for VM
in the late 90s I distro hopped
I miss cs 1.5
discovered debian in 2001
Sounds like fedora silver blue or whatever is the immutable one
Yea ik about that
I had a crash course in burp today. Had to re-do the code from a writeup
No sadly
No what is it?
Valve releasing their own hardware
Steam Controller
Steam Machine
Steam VR headset
Hopefully they'll incentivise devs to support Linux
The Steam Machine is basically their PC
Does anyone can access gateway on prolab? Iβve try many times to connect my rastalab but cant reach to init IP machine
bro just hates Tactical shields
Nice
Custom GPU from AMD, strong AMD CPU and 16 GB DDR5
Try killing your ovpn, refreshing the page, restarting ovpn, then connecting to the box.
Is bill gates ur grandfather or something?
Honestly if Steam Machine is better than my PC, I'll buy it and sell my PC
??
I did it, including change from eu to us but it still happening
Sell it to me
Sorry I thought I was in the other server π₯²
I can always use an extra server

I'll sell it to the highest bidder
Specs?
but why you even telling this for 10th time if nobody can spawn machine?
Rtx 4060, 32 GB DDR4, Ryzen 7 5700x
mfw im still on the 2060
Because I did that on a machine that wasn't working and now its working. Someone else said they also got a machine working.
2060 is still pretty decent
Drive slots?
I wanna upgrade to AMD GPU next time
Does it come with a drive tray, or how many nvme slots on mobo
2 SSD slots
i mostly play older games and indies so i dont really need the beefier cards

oh I didnt saw that, thanks for clarifying
I just keep replaying OOT
Np. Might work, might not. Always worth a try again.
I dont even have a console newer than PS2
Guys what can I do with an old PS3
I don't even have a PS2
Hack it bro
How so
Idk how to jailbreak but I'll search youtube
Use a screwdriver
Figure out what firmware you have is step 1.
The person who spoke is no longer here 
I have PS3 emulator installed on PC
Btw what happens when u jailbreak it?
FBI appears on your door
π
Breaking things in a meaningful way to see how they work and make them work different is the core of hacking.
True
Ill do it today
knock knock
What the absolute fuck lmao
absolute masterpiece
If I have any advice to give about hacking hardware. Do it slowly. When you crack something bc you got frustrated with the housing... the hacking ends xD
You always gotta wash your PC every once in a while after hammering the RAM in
It becomes an exercise in recycling or harvest of passive components.
Good night
Nah, just toss it a towel and cab fare.
Must be an i7
Looks more like a p4
I was making a bad joke lol
Btw which is better VMware or oracle virtual box?
I use VBox, but both are used pretty commonly
Qemu
I'm gonna use VMware pro for kali
Qemu might scare people away lol
Huh?
They're both fairly similar.
Ok
It really shouldn't, libvirt makes it pretty easy
True
Im ordering a new screwdriver set
PS3 has very weird screws
Get the iFixIt kit
Shit, that's what I need to do.
It is pretty solid. Been using it for a decade almost
I dont have any compatible screwdriver set for PS3 yet
I need to order a toolkit for electronic repairs
Yes it has
This on Amazon?
Itβs okay to be wrong
Yeh
Just break open the case
weld a bit and unscrew it
Zawg is posted up
That's like from 3 years ago
It has this weird screw
My dog has left his hairs all over my kit
Gng what?
That looks like torx tbh
Damn, $75? Why is it twice the price of these cheaper kits?

I just took this picture of Thunder
ps3 also has a hidden screw, behind a sticker
I need to justify this price lmao
Cause it lasts longerπ€·π»
Tf you mean 3 years ago?
Here is the culprit
Heβs ABOUT to turn 3
@quaint hinge How do I break open this
What breed is he?
Pit and mystery
Use a hammer
Those are star bit screws
Gng is WAYYYY too proud of himself
Dawg i dont wanna completely break it
It supported me for years
ps3 also has a hidden screw behind sticker
It does?
Oh wait yea i already opened that one
Got him from the local dog jail. Nobody would adopt bc he was "scary". Dude folded under zero pressure with treats and hugs. He now sleeps against my legs and is as sweet as can be.
yes take out the sticker
Just kidding man try a small flat head screw driver
My dog is an ass hole but I love him
Pits are the sweetest dogs ever oml
Never seen an exception in my life
Gently
Found it
Always the most loving bears
Make sure you ground yourself to remove static electricity
i had the same issue years ago when my cd was stuck inside π
@meager kernel if you can't find a proper head use the "pen melt socket" method. It will work, if space is available and grip is possible.
Hmm alright
hi guys
Torx 8 security bit, you should be able to find it at most hardware stores.
Ytube will have a guide. But... you melt a pen. Push it into the head, and it will dry fitting it perfectly
I wish I had bigger nails
u can still play black ops 1 & 2 online zombies or multiplayer, but a lot of hackers using modscheats via theater
remove every sticker u see
Boyfriend cooked pizza and I didnβt get to eat any as he went home and cooked himself this
4 screws in total
hi I just got back from a hacker meetup
:T
he should have considered you
You got a boyfriend? Congratulations
xD
Get new bf.
torx?
ya not a very considerate bf
YOU SHUT YOUR TRAP OLD SPORT >:O
Its a star shape something
sorry I just was trying to be helpful
HES BRINGING ME SOME TOMORROW
Thats the one I have.
Yea I'll check it out
Used it for years
Yeah heβs great
Hardware related stuff looks fun
Listen here, a good bf would still have made the pizza, but not send pics of it.
Glad to hear that
let's not argue with her
I don't think its gonna go well
Bruh. I am a good bf and I would send a pic of anything I am proud of. The first person I think about sharing something with is my gf
He might be over for box release tomorrow, I might let him do the box with you guys instead
Vader can take as much as she dishes out it'll be fine
you've got a good point so long as the pic isn't like "here's a pizza you won't get to eat" like he's mocking her
(note: he does not know how to hack, heβs a nursing assistant)
makes sense
So he knows how to hack a heart
No he was like super proud of it and wanted to show me it since he wanted to cook for me.
Im off tomorrow, but I am moving, so I gotta get my hacking in hopefully on Sat
I dont imagine it was lol
you know what that's fair
maybe he just likes to cook
that's cool
what else does he like to make?
Alright, ordered the iFixIt toolkit
$90 with express shipping
Ive used my happily for years in dozens of repairs and harvests
Yeah, I had to justify the price. Apparently it's better steel and lifetime warranty. And they donate to right to repair causes. I was sold.
I take it back, that's a keeper so long as he's providing an all you can eat meat buffet.
I donβt know how my goofy ass pulled him
today im cooking myself a lasagna for the new box
Goofy is a huge plus
nice
I'm out of nicotine pouches π
It works on me too these days. I support what I support.
uh oh. your not gonna end up smoking again right?
Same. I'm big on "right to repair" and high quality material tbh
NOT THE GROCERY STORE. Trying to manipulate me into $5 every time I buy overpriced food...
No, it's 1 AM. Im not leaving the house lol
And if I did, I would buy pouches lol.
She's obsessed with her bf π
Chew on cigarettes, quit both at once instantly
The markup on quality food is insane.
Which ones do u uses velo or zyn?
You can get garbage for dirt cheap, but noooo. Try to be healthy and you pay 60 dollars a night for just dinner.
Velo has nasty chemicals but I still use them. I prefer Zyn tbh. All food-based binders.
