[buoyant swallow]

I love physical security because I find it so much easier and faster to understand and learn

[sharp sail]

Well it main purpose is to not cause damage

[molten sky]

physical security was fun during uni

[sinful moon]

lol but so many ways it can be cheesed, especially with some hilarious stories. But indeed

Sadly do not have much experience there besides very simple at home testing of devices

[molten sky]

it can be a good time killer

if you ctrl-s discord you get the sticker screen

just did my accident

ctrl-g gif

TIL

[sinful moon]

Always love the story, I think it was the Register, of the on-call tech who had to break into the in-business datacenter who climed through the drop celing and fell in

[molten sky]

tf

[sinful moon]

yeah lol, The Register has a bunch of fun ones

[buoyant swallow]

Yeah esp with fire cods and whatnot it's hard if not impossible to truly secure a building, That's why it's so critical that employees are properly trained on security and you have cameras everywhere lol.

[sinful moon]

For sure, I'd be all about this stuff if I lived even remotely close to where I work lol

[molten sky]

the thought of putting a lil delicate black box outside of your building with a master key is not a good one

[sinful moon]

Yeah when clients tell us where they hide the backup key I cringe every time lol

[buoyant swallow]

A skilled locksmith can just look at a key for a few seconds and have a decent chance of reproducing it and if you get close enough you can use impressioning to finsh the job.

[sinful moon]

Yeah obvs LockPickingLawyer is a great wakeup call on physical security of traditonal locks

[molten sky]

my old punch cutter got some use

i still have a pile of Best blanks behind me lol

[molten sky]

if lpl was a wakeup call you should probably check out mcnally

[buoyant swallow]

I am obsessed with reproducing keys I like to ask my friends if I can make them a copy of their key on the spot for fun LOL

[sinful moon]

Looks great, thanks for the recommendation. I sadly have little practical need besides hobbyist interest

[buoyant swallow]

See you yesterday tomorrow

[molten sky]

people should use the word overmorrow most often

[graceful thistle]

based

[rapid merlin]

I just use the exact date.

[torpid ether]

Same.

If I use "tomorrow", it's accompanied by ", Thursday 2/8"

[molten sky]

spotted the latetimezoner

[rapid merlin]

Avoiding confusion and maintaining professionalism.

[graceful thistle]

Its a common word in my native language, 'overmorgen'

[rapid merlin]

German right?

[graceful thistle]

No

[molten sky]

no

ubermorgen would be it there i believe

[rapid merlin]

There is übermorgen.

Which is the day after tomorrow.

[molten sky]

look at you with umlauts and shit on your keyboard

must be nice

[rapid merlin]

You should see my Russian keyboard.

[graceful thistle]

Dutch, but the German word is super similar

[molten sky]

dutch is just budget german tho so it's an easy mistake

[graceful thistle]

I mean.

[rapid merlin]

Intriguing.

[graceful thistle]

Yeah p much

[molten sky]

ya know what's terrifying

swiss german

may as well be dutch.2

[graceful thistle]

no

[rapid merlin]

For instance, German and French do have some similarities, even though they sound quite different. It was a mess to learn coming from Russian and English though.

[graceful thistle]

Swiss - Dutch are more different than German - Dutch

[rapid merlin]

Dialects.

[lament tendon]

Dutch and German are not different dialects.

[molten sky]

yeah idk about the similarity between swiss german and dutch i just meant that as the swiss dialect is special af

[rapid merlin]

Of course they are not.

[lament tendon]

I can understand Swiss to a relatively big degree.

[molten sky]

arabic is just another dialect of spanish

[rapid merlin]

I'm just saying that some regions have vastly different dialects, even though they speak the same language.

[graceful thistle]

another interesting one is Frisian, it floats between Dutch and English and German

[rapid merlin]

You should see how they speak Italian.

[graceful thistle]

anyway I have bosses to defeat. Dolphin, out

[lament tendon]

Lel. Good luck.

[graceful thistle]

Ty

[lament tendon]

Agreed.

[rapid merlin]

It took me a while to truly grasp it. My mother tongue is Russian, but when I was learning German and French, it felt like I was battling against a wall.

It didn't make any sense.

But once you truly understand the underlying principles behind why X is structured that way, it gives you a huge edge. For example, French grammar can be quite complex especially certain rules if you tackle them wrongly.

In French, forming adverbs by simply adding -ment to an adjective isn't as straightforward as adding -ly to an adjective in English. Sometimes you can do it, but sometimes you can't. Additionally, there's no direct equivalent to English -ness, which you would attach to an adjective to form a noun. For example, 'ugly' is laid, but 'ugliness' is not *laidité. It's all quite counter-intuitive (doesn't make sense).

[molten sky]

IT'S DONE

i added a colon

it works now

sry i mean a slash

i added a slash

[graceful thistle]

Nice

[molten sky]

many

many hours of pain

one slash

[graceful thistle]

[molten sky]

and the slash doesn't even make sense

Can you toast samosas?

[molten sky]

idk what a samosa is but probably can toast a samoa

those are good af

[graceful thistle]

Probably should use the oven to reheat samosas

[cerulean hornet]

I ask this out of desperation, trust me, I would if I could

It's either the toaster or it's going on the iron

[graceful thistle]

Idk how a samosa would fit in a toaster

[cerulean hornet]

Do you have an airfryer?

[molten sky]

air friers make everything good

[lament tendon]

Good morning people of the internet.

[cerulean hornet]

My next door buddy does but it's too late to go bother him, also I don't know how to use those things

[cerulean hornet]

No, you can not

[graceful thistle]

You could boil it

Blend it

And turn it into a samosa ommelete

I'll down two raw eggs and call it a night

Gonna try the air fryer tomorrow though

TikTok is trying to bring back the Harlem shake 🙈😂

[sick lance]

TikTok needs to die.

[molten sky]

@graceful thistle does the server have a language filter? can we add "tiktok"?

[sick lance]

There's only language filters for words that will get you warned.

I found that out accidnetly describing the automatic ford focus 😂

[molten sky]

auto focus bad

and yeah tiktok should be on that list

[molten sky]

perfect.

[main kraken]

huh

morning

[molten sky]

i'm working on that thing that decrapifies windows rn still ------ should i leave the snipping tool in?

i think i should

i left the calculator and Photos

[molten sky]

morn

[main kraken]

calculator and photos?

[molten sky]

yeah i left those on the system

they can stay

[sick lance]

Nah, replace it with Share X or Greenshot or something.

[main kraken]

ohh

[sick lance]

They're much better than snip n sketch.

[glass nest]

Greenshot is great

[sick lance]

I prefer Share X

[molten sky]

interesting option to consider. I wouldn't replace it with things by default but I very well might make that swap an optional one

[glass nest]

Well, look like we are at war, Scrubz.

[sick lance]

Not really.

Share X wins automaically.

[glass nest]

see?

War.

[molten sky]

i love how windows still includes the Internet Explorer 11 button but when you click it it's just like ope we're not actually supported anymore oh well gfys

[sick lance]

Windows 11 needs to die alongside TickTok.

[molten sky]

that's on 10 even lol

(i agree tho)

[glass nest]

Productivity - I think thats cos the more... advanced in age... folk see that as the 'Internet button'

[molten sky]

then why doesn't it open edge or something

is dumb

[glass nest]

Cos they want to use their new, hip logo to represent their product. Also, some legacy systems have sites and web front-ends that only really work in Explorer

[molten sky]

then why doesn't explorer start

[glass nest]

And if you click on one program and it opens another one - Might be good for the older folk, but the young complainy folk will,,, well, complain

[molten sky]

the icon does literally nothing other than tell you "doesn't work anymore, oh well, maybe look for something else in the store or something"

[glass nest]

Oh. Last time I used it, it opened up a page that said it wasn't supported anymore.

[molten sky]

yeah but that page is a dialogue box now

[glass nest]

And yeah, I can see why for people like us it's dumb, but for folk who DO see it as the internet button, they'd be totally lost thinking that the internet is shut

[grave pawn]

does anybody knows from where can can I master ai tools chat gpt midjourney etc??

[glass nest]

University 🙂

[molten sky]

i didn't learn a damn thing at uni lol

well, not from uni anyways

[glass nest]

See, Thats a key difference 🙂

[devout palm]

I learned the cirruculum and studied myself

[glass nest]

You learn a lot from being at uni, although they are more... meta-skills

[grave pawn]

??

[glass nest]

Heap.. why are you looking all smartened up, with correct spelling and capital letters?

[molten sky]

i learned how to do the bare minimum to pass a class

oh and how to drink more than you can carry

[main kraken]

Whats something else than kali linux or ubuntu i should get in virtualbox?

[devout palm]

Because I've grown up 🥲

[glass nest]

Yup. Netwoeking with peers is a very important skill. Adhereing to deadlines, sticking to a schedule, planning and executing a project.

[lament tendon]

They will complain either way, as you can see. 😉

Windows to burn sounds kinda not smth i should get

[molten sky]

could just build out a virtual server if you wanted to

[sick lance]

Windows Server, set up an AD on your host.

(if you have the resources)

[glass nest]

Could have a pop at Arch :p

[molten sky]

you don't want a Windows VM that you can tinker with and just burn to the ground?

[sick lance]

Ew

[molten sky]

he wants a VM not a war crime

[devout palm]

I hate spelling cirrucuclum

[glass nest]

hey, I don't like it either, but it will quash all preconcepions

[main kraken]

i think i have it

[main kraken]

whats AD

[glass nest]

TraceLabs VM. I think it's Kali based, but there are loads of OSINT tools on there to play with

[main kraken]

Oki

[lament tendon]

When I type „cirr“ apple suggests „Currywurst“ and I think that‘s better.

[devout palm]

Another mistake i made is "learned" instead of "learnt"

[glass nest]

You have a Voldemort VM.

[molten sky]

learned is correct

[main kraken]

Voldemort

[molten sky]

but you also use wrong money and units so yeah

[devout palm]

no

[sick lance]

How many VM's is too many?

Oh shoot did not see this channel, thanks!

[heady nova]

I was contacted on 6th Feb with final offer leter

But they said they'd revert with a final final offer letter that has the final date on it

[glass nest]

all those books aren't really aimed at beginners

I mean... the 'Ghidra Software Reverse Engineering for Beginners' is, but thats a very specific use case 😄

[heady nova]

Start points are different

They're for basics in reverse engineering

For that they'd expect you to know assembly at the least

[glass nest]

Zactly

[heady nova]

Btw you remember that Uni interview I had?

[undone hornet]

Ok thanks a lot guys, I wanted to buy it with my friend but she's just starting out, I'll look for some other begginer friendly books 😄

[heady nova]

I got selected

[glass nest]

Gratz! It's all coming up Rinzler so far this year 😄

[heady nova]

Apparently they asked very basics of c++

[devout palm]

What did they ask?

[glass nest]

Yeah, from the link you sent everything was 'Basics of'

[heady nova]

I'll try my best to take it to the next level

[heady nova]

Malfoy - keep an eye on humble. They have Cybersec books like.. every month

[heady nova]

Room's a mess

[lament tendon]

In that case, it is up to her.

[undone hornet]

Thats good to know, I mostly bought games from there lol

[heady nova]

@glass nest when were we supposed to poke a hole in the balloon?

[glass nest]

For brewing? Like... before you put it over the lid. It's just an airlock

[heady nova]

Ah

[glass nest]

the idea being to let air out, but no nasty things in.

[heady nova]

Well, the balloon burst

And sprayed me with grape slush

[glass nest]

Haha, you're making prison wine. thats fun 😄

[heady nova]

It is fun

[molten sky]

https://tenor.com/view/chocolate-pour-pouring-朱古力-gif-11170412

[glass nest]

Well, if it was bubbling, thats a good thing. means it was fermenting

[heady nova]

It's something new

[heady nova]

Yup I got that down

[molten sky]

(it's not wine but it's close)

[heady nova]

I'd let it age

[glass nest]

It's also why you pour out (and drink) a bunch of the juice before sugar and yeasting it up, to give it room to bubble

[heady nova]

I did give it room to bubble

[glass nest]

But nowhere for the Co2 to go 😄

[heady nova]

And I still got half a jar

I'm just thinking about letting it age

[glass nest]

Well hey, Making mistakes is how we learn 🙂

[molten sky]

nope

never learn

it's boring

[heady nova]

Balloons are a good idea tbh, it's just that if my parents would've seen the setup they'd think I have gone crazy XD

[glass nest]

Well, talk to @blazing granite about aging. For real, do leave it a day or two after it stops bubbling for the sediment to settle. But remember it is just a bottle of grape juice, it will go bad if you keep it for months 😄

[heady nova]

Oooh

[glass nest]

Oh yeah, it does have 'Breakng Bad' vibes when you are setting it up all ghetto-like 😄

[heady nova]

And the thing is they have seen breaking bad

Likely the power.

Might be as simple as a fuse

Hopefully, I mean 😄

[heady nova]

High voltage is the culprit!

[glass nest]

to be fair, it's been there for like 15 years. It's done its time

[heady nova]

I never heard of that before though, but I've only worked with switches in the uni's labs

It's not a mathematical formula, it's just a guide in a textbook to explain the absolute basics of photosynthesis

[devout palm]

Hmm

I mean, does that equation imply that there is 1 extra H2_O that is not used?

[tawdry marten]

silly question but what type of tool is burpsuite; isit used for scanning vulnerabilities or can they exploited within burpsuite. for example i done the basics on burpsuite and was able to find out the machine was vulnerable to xss but how would this vuln be exploited

[mossy river]

You don’t use burp for scanning vulnerabilities

[tawdry marten]

oh

or should i say finding then

[mossy river]

You can use it to find vulnerabilities

[tawdry marten]

maybe i used the wrong word

[tawdry marten]

can they be exploited within?

[mossy river]

Yes

Burp provides a lot of tools to exploit specific vulnerabilities

For example repeater

[devout palm]

If so, my bad. I didn't see 7H_2O on the reactants

[tawdry marten]

ok i will have a look, thanks

[waxen pilot]

what's the conclusion

[boreal scarab]

I have been summoned?

[pulsar spoke]

Guys, I need some advice. I'm going to teach someone programming but I have no idea which language to teach. I was gonna go with C because I feel like it's the best language to teach the basic programming concepts but since C is a bit tough language I was thinking about teaching Java. If I pick Java it will be easier for me to teach OOP straight away as well. What do you think? Which language should I pick? If there's any other language (except python) please tell me.

[devout palm]

I'd say it's not incorrect

[proven quartz]

Haha they noticed the 7H2O and wrote it down on the other side so that one H2O was just unused... That's fair

[waxen pilot]

what's your conclusion

[devout palm]

Are you going to take an action depending on our conclusions?

We're not specialized in chemistry

[pulsar spoke]

Anyone...?

[devout palm]

Yes, I suppose they were too lazy to erase 😂

[proven quartz]

They balanced the equation alright but probably just made a mistake writing it out the first time. It's not wrong but it's not the exact answer they were looking for

[waxen pilot]

I don't get it

wdym first time?

[proven quartz]

Lol read what's written in the example and read what's written out in pen

[devout palm]

Do they have prior knowledge of programming?

[mossy river]

2012 was a much simpler time.

[thorny walrus]

Hi out of curiosity how do you get the certification roles some people have?

[devout palm]

You ask mods nicely

[thorny walrus]

thanks

[shell nova]

And we'll generally ask for proof of cert in dms

[pearl badge]

This is what I would go for:
Absolute beginner -> Python just to get basic ideas of what programming means and acquire basic notions. More complex stuff like memory allocation or will resonate a lot more and be way more approachable if they already have an idea of what programming is.
Else -> Java if you want to teach OOP ; C if you want them to have great fundamentals on what "really happens" on a lower level

[shell nova]

I don't disagree with that

[pearl badge]

I saw your message before "Why is no one helping me", I understand it can be frustrating but you are asking for help to people that don't owe it to you

[pulsar spoke]

True dat

[shell nova]

Please remember to be patient, we're all people behind the keyboard here and many of us may not know or don't have much time.

[devout palm]

And i asked you a question

[shell nova]

Heap did ask you a question though

[main kraken]

Wassap

[pulsar spoke]

Well, this guys is a complete beginner so I was thinking of teaching him python after I teach him Java. Because I've seen newbies get overwhelmed when they start to use a statically typed language after learning python.

[shell nova]

Also please read this : https://slash7.com/2006/12/22/vampires/

[shell nova]

I'd say python first, typing is a different problem but it's easier once you get the basics down

[devout palm]

If they are a complete beginner, python is okay to go. The first thing they need to learn is algorithms and they need to get used to the syntax which is why we chose python

And then you can go for low-level stuff. I'd go with C++ for memory stuff and Java for OOP afterwards

[pearl badge]

Actually, why not ask the learner themselves ? You could have a discussion with them about what their objective is, and if they are ready to have it tougher at the beginning (using Java) in order to understand more deeply what happens

[rapid merlin]

I just miss the clothing styles

[shell nova]

Much as I dislike python, it's not a terribly hard language to learn the basics with

[devout palm]

If they can grasp pretty quickly, then you might need to feed them more

[rapid merlin]

[shell nova]

Setup is easy*

[rapid merlin]

Or bell bottom jeans from someone trying to be the hippest

[shell nova]

Isn't that The 90s?

[rapid merlin]

Early 2000s it was still a thing

Not sure if it lasted as late as 2012 tho

[pulsar spoke]

Well, the student's interest lie in data science so I was gonna teach him python anyway. I was thinking if I start teaching him Java it'll be easier for him to grab the OOP coding as well because if I teach him python and then switch to Java to teach OOP then he'll have to learn the Java basics as well. I don't want to overwhelm him with the hard stuff starightaway. What's your opinion on that?

[pearl badge]

You can do OOP with python

Just teach him python imo

[pulsar spoke]

Extremely sorry

[shell nova]

Python for basic algorithms, java for oop algos and sructures

[pulsar spoke]

by basic algorithms you mean...?

[shell nova]

Once you get the basics down they're mostly the same everywhere

[pearl badge]

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/python-oops-concepts/

[devout palm]

Yeah, if they are interested in data science

Python is suitable

[shell nova]

Python is terrible at oop though

[pearl badge]

Yeah but its only to grasp the concept

[shell nova]

Sure

[pulsar spoke]

That's one reason I didn't want to start with python.

[pearl badge]

But in the end they're going to work with python even for that isn't it ?

[pulsar spoke]

yh

[pearl badge]

Maybe I'm wrong, I didn't work in the field

[shell nova]

Start with procedural code

[pearl badge]

Then jump right into functional programing with scala

that's where the recursive fun begins

[shell nova]

I wouldn't wish scala on anyone

[pearl badge]

man...

[devout palm]

what's scala

[pearl badge]

its beautiful

[shell nova]

At least go for kotlin first

[pulsar spoke]

Yes, that's why I'm asking which language. I learned from C. But C is tough for newbies as it was for me.

[shell nova]

Python is fine

[shell nova]

Scala is mean and has lots of implicit magic

[pearl badge]

When I was 14 I bought a book to learn C, it was one of my first programming languages... I ended up stopping halfway through, they wanted to use a graphic interface and shit

It was really a pain

[feral spoke]

GM all, when will the event from yesterday be posted and available to consume? Contents for days!

[pulsar spoke]

Let's keep python aside because I'm teaching python anyway. What language should I use to teach the basics, procedural stuff and OOP?

[pulsar spoke]

I was thinking Java.

[shell nova]

Python for the basics and procedural code, java for oop

Don't complicate thinga

[pulsar spoke]

I said python aside

[devout palm]

I started with C++. It was not that hard. And I began to go deeper and deeper. Now i have strong fundamentals on how memory and stuff works. Beneficial for reverse engineering.

[shell nova]

You just don't like the answers you're getting

[pearl badge]

https://github.com/aemkei/jsfuck

[shell nova]

Memory management confuses 2 in 3

[pulsar spoke]

defienetly not JS

[pulsar spoke]

true

[devout palm]

Right

[shell nova]

Don't complicate your life

[devout palm]

IMO, best way to learn programming is to practice

This is very important

[shell nova]

Stick with python, there are some sites to practice on in the pins in #programming

[devout palm]

If you watch stuff all day, you're not doing anything but memorize stuff

[pulsar spoke]

that's out of question but yes, true

[shell nova]

It sort of was the question

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[pulsar spoke]

No, I was asking for a 1st time learner language. Not what must be done

[pearl badge]

TendoRonin, you really have all you need to answer your question. Now you need to think long and hard

[shell nova]

Seems like you don't want our help as you already have an opinion and merely want confirmation

[shell nova]

Python.

Then Java for the oop stuff

Functional programming is a different beast

[pearl badge]

yeah I was not being serious

[pulsar spoke]

Yes, I don't want to ruin this guy by teaching him the hard stuff. But programming does get hard, so I don't want to lie to him by teaching him the easy stuff.

[shell nova]

I gathered 😉

That's why I never suggested Clojure

[devout palm]

Highly depends on the person though

[shell nova]

Start with the easy stuff, everything else builds on that

[pulsar spoke]

Start with the easy stuff, give him a sneek peak on the hard stuff, motivate him, teach him with the best I got. That's the plan. How is it?

[shell nova]

Start small, introduce new concepts gradually

At the end of the day, the language doesn't matter

Teach concepts, not languages

[pulsar spoke]

yh, maybe I over thought it

[shell nova]

Semantics over syntax

Algorithms, data structures

How a bloody computer works

[pulsar spoke]

Can I properly give the concepts with python though? Specially data structures and stuff

[shell nova]

Some

It's all structs in the end

Just with more or less sugar

[pulsar spoke]

Man, teaching is tough

[shell nova]

Then you end up with encapsulation, coupling, etc

Try to find a copy of the gang of four

Ancient, yet foundational text

I'm getting ahead of myself though

[pulsar spoke]

I just want to introduce this guy into programming, that's it

[shell nova]

Sure, then start small. Variables, control flow

Functions

[devout palm]

It is.. And It's not for everyone

[shell nova]

Basic procedural stuff

Implement fizzbuzz

Though not the enterprise version....

Basically, solve basic problems

[pulsar spoke]

What if I teach Java and Python together. Then I'll be able to show the difference between statically and dynamically typed languages.

[shell nova]

Introduce basic structures: trees, lists, maps

[devout palm]

No, don't do that

[shell nova]

Typing inst important yet

[devout palm]

They might confuse things

[shell nova]

Foundations first, then specifics

Typing is a language thing

It'll come naturally, especially with oop

[fathom pagoda]

hey is it possible to wpa handkshake mobile hotspot

[pulsar spoke]

So basics with python, OOP with Java, fill the blanks with theories.

[devout palm]

Possible to do what?

[fathom pagoda]

like to crack mobile hotspot password

[shell nova]

Focus on theory and use the practice to confirm

[shell nova]

Sure I guess,

[pulsar spoke]

@shell nova so this way is fine?

[shell nova]

Don't do it though

[shell nova]

Focus on the theory and use the practice to show the thoery

[pearl badge]

I've been working on Try Hack Me for around a month now, and I would like to have your opinion on something. Computer security is a never ending learning process, that requires both conceptual understanding of what is going on, and great technical mastery of your tools and a plethora of environments. Have you guys ever gotten frustrated by how little details can ruin the whole thing ?

A few years ago, I was trying to exploit a .htaccess misconfiguration vulnerability on w3challs. I didn't know about burpsuit and I wrote the HTTP request. It didn't work for days, during which I looked at the RFC and other ressources, only to find that it was because a request like this had to be closed with 2 CRLF.
On Tuesday, I spent time on an easy box and I couldn't use the hashdump function of meterpreter because of the shell type. So I tried to change shell, different ways, and when I watched the write ups they just used another tool.

What I like is understanding. I like when things are neat and abstract, I read some documentation by microsoft recently and it was so clean (You will find an example attached). Do you guys ever experienced the same thing ? Do you have any idea of how to reconciliate the fact that I'm more comfortable with abstraction and cybersecurity ?

Basically you can never do cybersecurity in you head and expect it to work perfectly. You have to get your hands dirty

[devout palm]

Gosh

[pulsar spoke]

So, teach basic concept and theories using python practicals, OOP with Java

[shell nova]

Short answer, all the time

[shell nova]

Yeah

Until you reach the limits of python 😉

[pearl badge]

short follow up question, how do you cope ?

[pulsar spoke]

Thanks @shell nova for the advice. And sorry for being so toxic.

Lots of searching, head bashing and determination to get the damn thing working

I had a hard time figuring out Shaker to get the escape working

Took literal days of research, as it's something that was sort of done before but never in that context

[pearl badge]

But if that's the job, how can it be pleasant ?

[shell nova]

That's a different problem 😉

I'm a dev by trade

[pearl badge]

Maybe the lack of pressure (if these are just "challenges" in your situation) allows it to be enjoyable

like a riddle of some sort

It obviously depends a lot on every profile

[devout palm]

Yeah, depends on the person's likes

I do like learning complex stuff

And these challenges are likely to be normal to me

[shell nova]

Pretty much

I enjoy puzzles though

[devout palm]

This is why this field is hard

[shell nova]

But I'm also a bit odd

[devout palm]

But i think it happens in programming too? I guess

[shell nova]

All the time

Use the cli?

From within wsl

Or within the vm

[west vigil]

any threat intel gurus here?

[boreal scarab]

WSL has some networking issues.

sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf
Change the name server yo like 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, or 9.9.9.9 for example.

I also suggest NOT using the WSL in Turn Windows Features On or Off, but getting WSL from the Microsoft Store App. (Benefit of that is SystemD works there, not in the features one)

[sick lance]

How long have you been here

Just ask lol

[buoyant tree]

[chilly veldt]

Hmmmm, should I go and do karaoke tonight?

Hmmm

[loud marlin]

hmm indeed... but go

[blazing granite]

that's a rhetorical question 😉

[chilly veldt]

It is, cause I just sat down in my car waiting for it to heat so I can drive to karaoke

[blazing granite]

it is rhetorical because it's always karaoke time 😂

@boreal scarab just bought 30tb of disks
I'm keeping 15

[boreal scarab]

Wanna give me the other 15? 👀

[naive violet]

Shipping would kill the deal, and my colleague has spoken for them already hehe

[boreal scarab]

Lmao

[naive violet]

10x3TB

I just wanted a few for larger VMs to finally get away from my 500gb array

[boreal scarab]

Any plans for the rest of that space? Are they in a server, or somehow setting it up in a desktop?

[naive violet]

They'll be server

[lament tendon]

In todays funny issues: accidentally added a – to a markdown table instead of only -, guess how long it took me to figure out why my tables did not render correctly.

[naive violet]

And no, I already have a nas. Just wanted 4 drives for a raid

[boreal scarab]

I still gotta get some more drives for my server, right now I'm sitting at 5 TB, already used 10% of space. Do I need it? Not really. Would I like it. Absolutely

[lament tendon]

Wait, berrise name update?

[boreal scarab]

Yah, Fluff changed me to cultist, I changed it to clanist lol

[lament tendon]

I see, I see.

[buoyant tree]

mad af atm

website just hosted a "Coming soon" simple html

2 days

[shut hawk]

it's not the content, its the hostname

what is the TLD?

[mossy river]

Standing at the bus stop and someone in a BMW purposely speeds up and swerves into the puddle in front of it

I am the master of reactions so I turned 180 so it only hit my back but my friend was drenched 🤣

[shut hawk]

My road was flooded once and I had the exact same thing happen except I was right next to it, and my reaction times weren't as good 😭

[mossy river]

I heard their engine accelerate so I knew what was coming

I’m also on 340mg of caffeine so I am processing at 8x the normal rate

[shut hawk]

The video is hillarious, because I was recording it the whole time and it cuts of right when I'm about to get splashed

[boreal scarab]

@naive violet whatcha plans for that server? Just a simple NAS?

[naive violet]

It's just drives for my VM server

[boreal scarab]

Ah

[shut hawk]

@mossy river

[mossy river]

Ahahah, documented a murder

[shut hawk]

got my hoodie all drenched 😠

[iron salmon]

oh nyo do have his licence plate ?

[shut hawk]

lol nah its alright anyway, found it quite funny

[iron salmon]

i had that ones was not funny to me...

[devout palm]

lmao

RIP

[buoyant tree]

did u get thier licence plate

[bold latch]

Sheesh. Entirely drenched

[iron salmon]

no back then i did not know you could get them for it if they did it on purpose

[bold latch]

Nahh, come on. With scalability and a nicely organised rack, you should be fine using what you got + incrementally adding 3TB when it gets full

Easy as plugging a wire or two and sliding it in

That reminds me, I'm sitting at 3.8 of 4TB used on my main device so I probably need to find me another SSD sometime soon

[main kraken]

Why aint this working im using msfconsole in thm source challenge

[loud marlin]

try use more user.txt

[mossy river]

If I went around reporting BMW drivers, I wouldn’t have time for Uni or Work

[boreal scarab]

I once had a BMW driver run me off the road in a 2 lane turning lane

[main kraken]

[boreal scarab]

Network boot?

[naive violet]

Nope

[wraith fjord]

Hello, yes its been a while. How are you? Hows life?

[naive violet]

Bios/boot time from the option rom that you couldn't disable or even see

[boreal scarab]

Ooooooooh

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @wraith fjord (current: #123 - 50)

[main kraken]

Hey

[iron salmon]

true that

[buoyant tree]

Should I port foward all my services or just get openvpn and then connect to my home network

thinking about what would be more secure

[hot cairn]

Openvpn

or cloudflared

[shut hawk]

cloudflare tunnels ftw

[buoyant tree]

eh mad at cloudfare atm

website was up for 2 days and only said coming soon

[hot cairn]

wtf? lol

[shut hawk]

^?

[hot cairn]

maybe it got hacked and used for malicious?

[buoyant tree]

it was a page with a single h1 saying Coming soon

[buoyant tree]

.com

[hot cairn]

maybe fQDN was used for something prior

[shut hawk]

The only thing Cloudflare tunnel doesn't support is UDP - I had to get a reverse UDP tunnel to my external VPS when trying to setup a game server
