Yes, but they have a career meaning they typically don't complain because they prefer to focus on putting in the work and advancing their professional lives.

[forest mortar]

Actually do all those labs, they're all very useful lmao

[rapid merlin]

Very good, always optimize your time. Create frameworks in your case for situations to streamline tasks and maximize productivity.

[viscid hill]

one other thing, im quite lost in finding resources to learn mobile app pentesting, any sites or places online u can point me in the direction towards?

[forest mortar]

I have no experience with that, I would imagine someone else here would know though

[molten sky]

So what you're really saying is "the job market is flush if you're willing to make compromises like taking a 30-40% cut in pay" of "the job market is flush if you're willing to commute 3 hours each way" and it's okay because "they don't complain"

that's not flush. that's dealing with a bad situation.

[viscid hill]

yeah i do less effort work towards sleeping, like in the morning and mid day id do stuff like CTF's and bug bounty programs, but later on I'd do note taking and stuff from THM, rn im doing a room on android hacking

[rapid merlin]

What will they do instead sit and cry?

[rapid merlin]

Very nice, keep on doing that.

[molten sky]

no, of course not. but pretending that that means it's easy is wrong

[glass nest]

Whats happening now? just had a short but prductive time in the Garage.

[viscid hill]

im only about 6 -7 months learning properly, before that i was quite lazy and didnt know much, i feel like i know alot for my age

[rapid merlin]

It's simple: just try to see things from a different perspective. I always do. I won't give in until I'm dead.

[rapid merlin]

You probably do, just adopt a perfectionist mindset.

[forest mortar]

Also worth noting how wages have not matched productivity at all, so over-exerting yourself unnecessarily won't really benefit you in the long run

[molten sky]

THAT'S perfectly fine. But that doesn't mean the job market is flush, which was the whole point of the convo

"the job market is great if you're fine with suffering!"

[viscid hill]

for sure man perfectionism is something that is a hit or miss, because some days if it doesnt start off well i dont see the point and wait for tmrw, but its good in the fact that it can push u to get things done, double edged sword really

[rapid merlin]

You won't significantly influence the market on a macro level. The job market is great for people who are outstanding.

[glass nest]

Eh. Job Market is what you make of it. Economy changes, Get a job you like/can do and live to those means

[rapid merlin]

100% especially if you know how to control it.

I have hyperfocus for instance.

[glass nest]

If you want a better job, up your skills and look around. Simple.

[rapid merlin]

Exactly.

[glass nest]

If theres jobs not available, then shrug. More time to work on your skills.

[molten sky]

my guy -- you're trying to argue that the job market is good by saying it sucks for everyone who isn't 1 in 1,000,000

[viscid hill]

yeah dude some days I can effortlessly tune everything out and get about 10 pages of notes done before i gotta move onto some dif tasks

[glass nest]

youd be surprised

[molten sky]

from experience, yes it does

[glass nest]

Always great to get 'in the zone' though

[rapid merlin]

I'll never do it; it's detrimental in the long run, it ruins you.

[viscid hill]

adderall isnt sold over the counter here i believe

[molten sky]

eh. if you abuse it it can

[viscid hill]

u have to get it from a doctor

[rapid merlin]

Then strive to be the one in a million. There's a reason why most people aren't there—it's because they simply lack the capability.

[glass nest]

Nah. just do what you do. but remember: Work to live, don't live to work.

[molten sky]

idk where "here" is but in the US and Canada it's Rx only

[shut hawk]

Pretty sure it's medication for ADHD

[rapid merlin]

These are amphetamines, they will nuke you no matter what.

[glass nest]

modafinil isn't.

[viscid hill]

how the fuck do u guys know all these drugs

[rapid merlin]

[molten sky]

oh no scary word -- just because something can mess you up doesn't mean it will in moderation

[viscid hill]

modafinil is something else... similar like nootropic

[glass nest]

Tom - personally I was studying to get into med school a few years back. Thats just stuff that came up 🙂

[molten sky]

i agree actually

[viscid hill]

oh damn what made u switch?

[glass nest]

HOWEVER - Only take those drugs if prescribed by a licenced professional.

[rapid merlin]

Ask any reputable doctor, and they'll tell you it's not sustainable to rely on Adderall. The side effects alone are detrimental.

[rapid merlin]

Yes and even then do you own research.

[wild rose]

I was in med school, but I'm in no position to start telling you randos what to take since I don't know you.

[loud marlin]

adderall = legal amphetamine

[molten sky]

absolutely *looks around*

i did actually get a script tho

[molten sky]

key word. Rely.

moderation is like 90% of life

[rapid merlin]

If they genuinely have ADHD and are prescribed Adderall, they may need to rely on it as part of their treatment plan.

[molten sky]

you shouldn't rely on many things

[glass nest]

Tom - I passed the Graduate entry exams, and got opportunities from Dundee and Liverpool med schools, but after a loooong think, I'd be almost 50 by the time I graduate. Didn't seem worth the cost. Still, very interested in Medicine though

[rapid merlin]

Meaning they will face tolerance and then side-effects.

Then they will switch to something else and so on.

Many individuals with Adderall prescriptions switch to Vyvanse or continue to use Adderall because Vyvanse tends to be more expensive.

[wild rose]

Time to check out the new room, answer emails, and do some work. L8R

[glass nest]

Well, luckily everyon hwere will only take tablets their doctors subscribe them

Ooh, Whats the new room?

I really wanna make a sign that is radar and once they hit over the speed limit, it shines "Slow The Fuck Down"

[molten sky]

..you do realize that you don't need adderall if you have adhd, right?
it's an aide. it's optional in most cases. if it ruined you, then it wouldn't be used as a minor helper for people

caffeine even, is a common alternative

it's not like a life saving medication

[glass nest]

509 - Yep, and i still read stuff out of interest. But ultimately its actually pointless to know as it's not something i'd know

[rapid merlin]

I am saying if they're given Adderall to treat their ADHD.

[molten sky]

they still don't need to rely on it

the doc giving them a treatment plan is their recommended maximum, not a minimum

[rapid merlin]

It's good to learn about a variety of topics. I strive to be a polymath though. Takes insane amount of work.

[molten sky]

I know. I literally spoke before a judge about this just a month ago.

[rapid merlin]

Many doctors have decent pharmacology knowledge but it's so-so, but generally, pharmacists tend to be more well-rounded.

[molten sky]

The treatment plan is a recommended maximum in all but the most unusual of cases

not a "if you take less then this you will die"

I can see why some people might like French. While I can write well in it, I'm not fond of certain grammar rules. I prefer when things are logical.

[loud marlin]

cow's have weird aerodynamic...

[chilly veldt]

esqyyyy

[boreal scarab]

But they're the right sorta crunch

[rapid merlin]

Do it in spoilers (if you don't mind).

[clear jackal]

It depends, but the current method of car theft is to walk up to someones front door with a repeater and extend the signal to the car

[boreal scarab]

And not too heavy on the flavor

[glass nest]

Whatsup bella? More adulting needed?

[boreal scarab]

Just a small bag. Outside louging eating sunchips

[chilly veldt]

I have cigarette cravings!
and I messed up ordering my gym membership

[rapid merlin]

They are nice.

They a lot of CFD.

[loud marlin]

why so?

[glass nest]

What have you done, Bella?

[rapid merlin]

Because they have weird shapes. You could say the same about hippos. Although they are more aerodynamic, I would say they're like the next level of cows.

[molten sky]

what if the cow was spherical?

[glass nest]

And in a vacuum?

[rapid merlin]

I used to mess around with that a lot when I was younger too. I would ponder which animal is best designed for racing and how you could test that. Looking back, I guess I really didn't have much of a life back then (I was bored in school).

[blazing granite]

I live in Jerusalem, I speak Hebrew and my neighbourhood there are a lot of arab own stores, also I live in the arab part of the old city and I had many arab coworkers so it was convinient, plus both languages are from the same family so share similarities

I need to do CFD analysis on it to see if it'll work.

Israel's cybersecurity efforts are quite impressive. I admire their work in this field.

They do incredible things.

Hello there. I just wanted to ask about the OSCP exam, is it necessary to take the course so you can take the exam

[molten sky]

that explains the yiddish. all the jews around here speak yiddish, while most of the continent is hebrew. so my mind was like wait maybe he’s from this part of the country

[glass nest]

A spherical cow would be a cow egg. So might just be easier to go to a cows nest and take one.

[molten sky]

it’s entertaining being able to understand what’s spoken but have absolutely no clue whatsoever what a single building says

[shut hawk]

The course and exam are technically independent

OSCP is the cert, PEN-200 is the course

So yes, you can take the cert without the course

[rapid merlin]

Absolutely, I've read about Unit 8200 for example. They truly attract and release highly skilled individuals.

I mean, afaik there's no way to buy one without the other

[glass nest]

I know some Polish! 'Polski Sklep'. Only cos there used to be one opposite my office 😄

[rapid merlin]

It really depends on your skill level, but read the course just to get into the right mindset is crucial. Also do proving grounds extensively, I mean a lot.

[pallid lotus]

So would be a bit dumb to spend a grand and a half and ignore the coursework

[glass nest]

Yeah, I spotted that - When did it go up?

[soft trail]

Thank you!

[pallid lotus]

That said, the course does not help with the mindset

[rapid merlin]

Try harder mentality.

[blazing granite]

that's the top of the top, actually the owner of Cybereason was from that unit 🙂

[molten sky]

i’ve began to question this tbh. normally, i agree. but if youve got the cash to blow and you AREN’T going to get a formal education (& the degree), it’s not THAT bad

[pallid lotus]

That's not what's important for the exam, honestly

[crude stump]

It’s Friday woohoo

[molten sky]

but for most people who have an Edu absolutely not worth it

[pallid lotus]

It's more about whether you can manage your time and not panic

[glass nest]

@pallid lotus Quick DM?

[shell nova]

/me panics

[pallid lotus]

Yeah, go for it

[molten sky]

no!

[rapid merlin]

Witnessing their work is incredibly motivating and impressive. They never fail to inspire me.

[valid mauve]

Hey, quick sanity check. My ex-employer wants me to not mention "JunOS" and "IOS-XE", but "Juniper" and "Cisco" are okay, when talking about what I worked with when under their employ.
Am I the only one who thinks this is bull?

[rapid merlin]

Honestly, I have a strong background in CTF so I always have that try harder mentality, but from what I've gathered, dedicating ample time to proving grounds is highly recommended over platforms like HTB for instance.

I might be wrong though.

[shut hawk]

Just had a check now, you're right

[crude stump]

That’s weird

[pallid lotus]

Nah, aside from some of the proving grounds boxes being built by Offsec devs (and I'd be astounded if none of the HTB ones were), a CTF box is a CTF box. OSCP might be a CTF but it's on a whole other level stress wise.

[glass nest]

Yeah, I remember when you were doing it

[crude stump]

Maybe it’s so it’s more broad then just saying you worked with junOS

[rapid merlin]

But JunOS is under Juniper.

[loud marlin]

snakes have legs

[valid mauve]

To add to this, no signed NDA or nothing. They could spare themselves that stuff if they'd have me signed an NDA...

[rapid merlin]

I like stress. I plan to take the OSCP next year.

[pallid lotus]

Good luck!

[valid mauve]

Yes. Exactly. NetBox is also unmentionable, for whatever fucking reason, lol.

[crude stump]

Ask your ex employer why

What’s his reason

Or her

[valid mauve]

"People can connect the dots through LinkedIn/Xing and see what we have!"

scream

[molten sky]

i mean, juniper and cisco mightt still be better than junos and whatever tho

[bold dawn]

From what I've heard, OSCP is very gimmicky. Can people attest to that?

[blazing granite]

Great minds for sure not only on cyber, in tech in general, ICQ, Waze, The Intel 8088 ( created and develop in Haifa), Smartphone dual lens technology, the flexible stent, etc

[molten sky]

will the random hr person know what junos is? eh. juniper on the other hand is frequently mentioned

[shut hawk]

Glorified CTF from what I've gathered

[valid mauve]

It's not HR having that discussion with me, it's my direct boss.

[molten sky]

no—for future employers, when applying

[loud marlin]

ello mac

[molten sky]

will the random ass hr person know what junos is instead of juniper is what i mean

[valid mauve]

Aaaah. Well, usually I get past HR drones quickly and into a room with the technical team.

[molten sky]

then no issue there

[crude stump]

That’s what I think the employer wants. Just mentioning something under a big company can be kinda nity gritty. If you mention juniper and Cisco the employer can ask you directly what you did when you worked there

[molten sky]

im not in that space so i wouldnt know, lol

i dont do jun or cisco

[rapid merlin]

Thanks, I regularly do HTB (I would say I can do most hard machines if I dedicate the time to it or when I am motivated). I also thoroughly reviewed and still review the course syllabus regularly and master the material before investing in that course. Not sure if there is anything else I can do to prepare myself.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @pallid lotus (current: #9 - 731)

[pallid lotus]

Yes and no.
It's definitely not uber realistic, but I've yet to see anything in practice which is.
In terms of a test of technical ability and (more to the point), attitude / ability to complete complex tasks on a deadline? It's pretty good.

[valid mauve]

I'd still have to say "Sorry, not allowed to talk about it" if asked what I did with Juniper or Cisco devices.

[bold dawn]

yeah

[valid mauve]

So that's kinda moot.

[bold dawn]

I like TCM's, as they tend to mimick real world a bit more

[rapid merlin]

Indeed, it's incredibly impressive. Hats off to them for their achievements.

i love that answer. “sorry, signed an nda, next q”

[warped crane]

Good evening guys

[crude stump]

Hello Anubis

[rapid merlin]

It seems like the 24-hour exam period plays a significant role during the examination as a pressure point. However, CPTS appears to be quite better. Still won't get the same recognition.

[warped crane]

Is there a command in linux i can create a txt file that includes a word + numbers

[shut hawk]

nano file

vim file

[pallid lotus]

Wut

[shut hawk]

code file

[warped crane]

Example
1- Anubis1
2- Anubis2

Until 10000- Anubis10000

[pallid lotus]

cat << EOF > "1- Anubis1"
Contents
EOF

[loud marlin]

wordlist genrator or smth

[bold dawn]

I was hoping to get responses from those who have taken it

[pallid lotus]

Oh, just throw it through a bash loop

for i in {1..10000}; do touch "$i Anubis$i"; done

[valid mauve]

When I started the job, I was joking that that'd be the answer to most if not all questions asked by future employers.

Oh, and: The text they want me to remove is from an official document they sent me which will be used in my jobhunt should I again change employers.

[pallid lotus]

Probably should have tested that first, but meh

[warped crane]

Hmm

[shut hawk]

won't that create a 10000 files?

[valid mauve]

It's literally from something I am requested to show to future employers, lol.

[pallid lotus]

Isn't that what they were wanting?

[warped crane]

I will try copy pasting it

[pallid lotus]

Oh

[warped crane]

Nope

[shut hawk]

I thought they meant as in one file

[pallid lotus]

OH

[warped crane]

1 file

[shut hawk]

LMAO

[pallid lotus]

No, do not run that

[rapid merlin]

Indeed, Israel's reputation for creating startups and leading in the field of information technology is awesome. It serves as an excellent example for others to aspire to and learn from.

[pallid lotus]

Do not run that

[warped crane]

[shut hawk]

and kids this is why we make sure we understand the command we run before pasting it

[loud marlin]

#rules 🙂 ehhehe

[pallid lotus]

for i in {1..10000}; do echo "$i Anubis$i" >> file.txt; done

Do that

[rapid merlin]

From what I've gathered from those who've completed the CPTS, it seems to offer a more comprehensive and effective experience compared to the OSCP. It's also like 10 days in total the CPTS exam. Personally I will only get it for the paper, CPTS genuinely seems way better.

[warped crane]

So i can simply create a txt file

And then nano it

And from there i make a command

[pallid lotus]

No, just run that in your terminal

Also, did I just do your homework for you?

[shut hawk]

what are you trying to achieve here

[crude stump]

💀

[warped crane]

Haha no you didn't 😂

Learning about how to generate lists

[loud marlin]

that will be weird homework

[warped crane]

And commands

[rapid merlin]

The teacher will join this chat.

[crude stump]

Can’t you just echo and make a list use python. Or are you asking to actually save a .txt file

[pallid lotus]

Nah, it's a fairly typical Linux 101 question for a degree

[warped crane]

Save a txt file

[molten sky]

gotta hit em with the spicy rm to be sure

[rapid merlin]

@pallid lotus Do you recommend OSED and OSEE?

[warped crane]

So those first 2 commands?

[rapid merlin]

Ideally I would love to aim for that. Good luck even getting a voucher though to pass the exam/course.

[molten sky]

work sponsored

[pallid lotus]

I haven't done OSEE. I do recommend OSED though. It's a good introduction to binex / re / shellcoding. Gave me a much better understanding of how these fricken' rocks think

[rapid merlin]

Very nice.

[molten sky]

[rapid merlin]

Does it tackle extensively : ASLR, DEP, SEH and so on? Or that's OSEE.

[pallid lotus]

That's why he's pissed off in the first place

[shut hawk]

not a room but overthewire is good

[sick lance]

I know, I know

[rapid merlin]

Definitely good, it's fun.

[crude stump]

Is it a website?

Oh it’s a game but for hackers

[rapid merlin]

You have many subgames under overthewire.

[shut hawk]

@crude stump https://linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php check this out as well

[rapid merlin]

Like bandit is good if you are legit new.

[pallid lotus]

Reasonably extensively. It goes very in depth on the topics it does cover.
It's not going to teach you every ASLR or DEP bypass, but it covers ret2libc (or, ret 2 winapi anyway) and read/write primitives well. SEH yes it goes into mind numbing detail over

OSEE is kernel pwn

[rapid merlin]

I am actually really interested into that. I will definitely aim for OSEE after OSED.

[pallid lotus]

Good luck. It's apparently a nightmare and a half

[crude stump]

I mean I know the basics so I guess I would be considered new

[pallid lotus]

Gonna leave that for a decade at least I think

Why did it change the i before anubis and after anubis to 1-10000

[sick lance]

Only people who don't know what they're doing use Greenshot.

It's like a cult.

[glass nest]

The script made 1000 number files

[blazing granite]

nothing wrong in looking for a better quality of life, but I miss the asado 😂 When I go to visit my family is all what I ate, and some empanadas too

[warped crane]

And didn't change the i in anubis itself

[proven quartz]

Well I've spoken to lots of people who've completed both. Some who've completed the CPTS found the OSCP trivial. Many going through the docs for OSCP finding it lacking compared to CPTS, some claiming they went and sat the OSCP exam weeks or days after getting CPTS.

OSCP is still considered valuable by hr departments and clients due to its reputation, for most junior pentesters. But you also require a lot more than that. CPTS does teach you how to conduct a pentest on a fictional company network but I'd also consider doing things like picoCTF and many of the paths in THM and other online services and improve your skills, because, realistically, no certification on the market truly prepares you for a pentesting role

[glass nest]

Zactly. So now you know what I'm about Scrubz 😄

[pallid lotus]

Scoped variable in the loop. $i relates to the for i in the loop statement

[rapid merlin]

100%, I will do all. Thanks for your input.

[rapid merlin]

Ma1ware for CM.

Overthewire for Linux skills, Underthewire for a Powershell site in similar style

[warped crane]

Wow

I still have so much to learn

[crude stump]

So basically the “for i in 1..1000” prints out a range of numbers from 1 to a thousand. The do echo i puts those numbers in front of the Anubis. Then you convert it into a txt file and he opened thus text file

I hate Powershell too but only cos I suck at it and it doesn't make sense yet but it can work wonders when you're doing things on a Windows box. Being a good pentester does require you to have good sysadmin skills 😛

Many who've done coth CPTS and OSCP say that OSCP is only really hard because their documentation doesn't cover a few critical pieces that are covered in the CPTS course. The Try Harder motto is only relevant because OffSec literally Tried Less

[rapid merlin]

It's nice to know. I usually go beyond the curriculum by about 20 or 50% after finishing the course. I continue doing both activities. I might actually do CPTS first since I am literally close to finish the course.

I think you'd benefit. One challenging point for CPTS though, is that you have to 100% complete the course before you're allowed to do the exam, and I'm not going into any more detail on that in this Discord 😛

I am assuming that room data might be deleted along with their account

If plans went differently, I'd be in Dundee right now

[sick lance]

Dundee. pft.

[serene canyon]

Edinburgh Castle Dog Cemetery

[proven quartz]

I've been to weddings with Scottish people at it

[pallid lotus]

Let's just say it's a great place to go if you're interested in a mass flashing lmfao

[mossy river]

Possibly, if it’s not too far off Otturburn military base then yes

[crude stump]

😂

[serene canyon]

[pallid lotus]

Would that be Greyfriars Bobby's grave..?

[molten sky]

im sry wat

[serene canyon]

there are lots of flash lights there?

[molten sky]

i missed some context i think

[crude stump]

Traditionally when you wear a kilt you free ball

[sick lance]

We do.

[pallid lotus]

Kilts.
Even Scottish men don't have a whole lot of experience at remembering to cross their legs when sitting down in a skirt

[sick lance]

I'm banned from wearing it at a race soon. 👀

[molten sky]

ahhhh yeah that's some good context

was like that sounds like a crime

[crude stump]

Gonna be flashing literally everyone lmao

[pallid lotus]

Well whaddya know, there actually is a dog graveyard

[sick lance]

smh

[mossy river]

Honestly, rate the Scottish for it

[sick lance]

We have a few pet graveyards.

[mossy river]

If you’d a cat one, that’s points deducted

[glass nest]

Well, Dogs were important in the highlands in ye olden days

[mossy river]

Dogs are important period

[glass nest]

Agreed.

[shut hawk]

My dog has been misbehaving recently

[crude stump]

Don’t diss the cats

[mossy river]

I miss my dogs so much

[shut hawk]

Keeps going upstairs on my bed when I'm on my computer

[crude stump]

[sick lance]

or.. a space?

[pallid lotus]

There we go

[mossy river]

Muir lmk if you ever decide to change the Ollie thing on your website, or send me all the pics and I’ll move it onto the box

[crude stump]

There

Top hat sad guy

Or not sad but

[sick lance]

I always thought his name was Muir

and not A.

[glass nest]

Maybe a 🧐 woudl be more aprops

[crude stump]

Ooo

Yes

[pallid lotus]

Yeah, I genuinely need to remember about that API when I shift my blog off the legacy infra 😆

[serene canyon]

@dark obsidian I demand pics of bash. Thank you.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @dark obsidian (current: #176 - 33)

[crude stump]

Sir muiri with the little top hat

[serene canyon]

weird bot

[crude stump]

Dissing robocop should be a crime

[mossy river]

Hahah, fortunately the bot shouldn’t crash but it’ll just be an empty embed

This is all an assumption

Nah

Down with robocop

[pallid lotus]

Well now this I gotta try

[sick lance]

NOoo

[mossy river]

I can’t wait until I have the time to replace robocop

[sick lance]

I'm almost number one for rep

[shut hawk]

L

[serene canyon]

[crude stump]

Don’t replace my homeboy robo

[serene canyon]

james fell off the leaderboard ig

[buoyant tree]

new room today

[mossy river]

As soon as I’ve converted it to a service this won’t be a problem

We’re updating the framework which is when I plan to make it a service

[buoyant tree]

a lil different

[sick lance]

No, he's still numberone

[rapid merlin]

hello everyone

[glass nest]

I think I'm at 19. Not bad for having 2 years away 😄

[mossy river]

Nop

[pallid lotus]

How the hell are you still running that without a service?

[crude stump]

Hola

[pallid lotus]

Dockerise it

[rapid merlin]

does someone can help me ?

[mossy river]

Hopes and prayers

[serene canyon]

that makes much more sense

[twin ridge]

Gave 1 Rep to .scrubz. (current: #2 - 1944)

[crude stump]

Yes,

[rapid merlin]

no one want help...

[crude stump]

?

[mossy river]

I’ll let CMNatic handle that 🤣

I was hoping I could make it so the box’ll just update automatically when I push changes but I’ve not a clue how to do that yet

It’s part of my r&d in my spare time

[rapid merlin]

thanks ACES

[sick lance]

helps if you tell us with what you need help with

[rapid merlin]

so i'm just a newbie

[pallid lotus]

You're looking for a CI/CD config there

[shut hawk]

@mossy river you should remove RoboCop one point before scrubz becomes #1 hehe

[rapid merlin]

i'm on a room name is vulneribility

i got issu 'bout a thing that i don't understandù

[sick lance]

#room-help would be best 😄

[crude stump]

Swing over to #room-help

[rapid merlin]

"Find a form to upload and get a reverse shell, and find the flag."

[crude stump]

Oop

[rapid merlin]

okay

[mossy river]

Yup, I’m going to setup testing on the repository and then figure out how to deploy it on the box

I’m assuming CMNatic knows how to so I’ll bug him closer to the time

I’ve done it already with CloudFormation but I don’t need to create a new EC2 each time

[crude stump]

Cmon scrubs stole my spot light

[mossy river]

Even if I can’t replace it, I’ll just disable the rep module

[sick lance]

Type faster

[glass nest]

AceS, Thats where he gets the big bucks from 😄

[bold dawn]

lmao

[mossy river]

He gets what now

[pallid lotus]

Personally, I genuinely would do it in docker. Make it so that a new image gets built automatically whenever a new release is created, then get the box to pull it down and restart. Whole thing should theoretically be doable in Github Actions

[molten sky]

k8s is the obvious answer

[serene canyon]

isn't gitlab better for that sort of stuff?

[mossy river]

Yup, I know you can dockerise with GitHub Actions

[smoky lark]

I couldn't find a way to take a screenshot of a specific open window/app using flameshot, only full screen captures. Any other ideas? 🙂

[shut hawk]

Dockerise everything.

[mossy river]

I have a private repo with all that

[crude stump]

I see now

[pallid lotus]

Yes, but THM use Github

[serene canyon]

[mossy river]

I use GitHub, it’s my code I own the full rights to the discord bot

[pallid lotus]

I just dockerised a samba server

[serene canyon]

why??

why did you feel the need to do that

[pallid lotus]

Because I just got my new media server up and running. It's already got Jellyfin, Caddy, and Duplicati containers

Figured I should just go all in and do the whole thing in docker

[glass nest]

sounds like some sort of inception

[pallid lotus]

Only issue is that for some inane reason, Windows is refusing to connect to it by its domain name

IP works fine

Domain, not so much lmao

[serene canyon]

let me find the dns meme

[pallid lotus]

It's not DNS

... It was DNS

[glass nest]

It's always DNS

[serene canyon]

see

[pallid lotus]

(But no, seriously, I don't think this one actually is)

My guess is credential cache

It was not credential cache

[rapid merlin]

please guys

come help me

lil uzi vert

[mossy river]

Hey everyone here are volunteers, please be patient

[split compass]

This is the Internet, there are only bits and bots here. 😅

[mossy river]

So you want to put a virus on it? Sounds counter intuitive

[pallid lotus]

Well that's believable

[mossy river]

I’m sure if you install random APK’s you’ll eventually get a virus

[bold dawn]

I’m actually wanting to start a .NET homelab to practice testing and fixing a bit more. I need to improve my implementation skills with fixes to web apps

[rapid merlin]

i was the first to ask....

[serene canyon]

FILO

[blazing granite]

I was thinking the same thing 😂

[mossy river]

By putting a virus on it… right?

[split compass]

Buy a Pegasus license?

[mossy river]

You know what a virus is don’t you?

[glass nest]

oh, Honey.

[mossy river]

Huh

[bold dawn]

but you asked for a virus?

[mossy river]

You want to install a virus but don’t want to get a virus

[serene canyon]

speaking of did you hear about the toothbrursh ddos thing that was going around on twitter@pallid lotus

[mossy river]

[serene canyon]

I'm so sad that it was fake

[glass nest]

Haber - Go get some sleep.

[pallid lotus]

Yeah, the one that was total bs?

[bold dawn]

at work still

[mossy river]

How about you go and learn the basics..? You seem way out of your depth here

[bold dawn]

for another 2-3ish hours

[blazing granite]

you can get a vaccine 😂

[glass nest]

Haber - Get paid to sleep

[split compass]

Let's roll things back. Describe to us what you believe a virus is.

[pallid lotus]

Sweetie, you a "virus" is just software that's doing something you don't really want it to do

[rapid merlin]

wtf

[pallid lotus]

It's no different from any other software

[pallid lotus]

That's a worm

[rapid merlin]

is there a separate room for IT discussions?

[mossy river]

Shhh

[glass nest]

You're better'n this Jabz

[bold dawn]

hahaha, nah, working on clearing out the tickets that were assigned to a HD tech who just quit

[shell nova]

self-propagation is a worm, yeah

[serene canyon]

didn't you write a room on this topic..? @mossy river

smh

[rapid merlin]

so

[pallid lotus]

Yep

[mossy river]

As the creator of the history of malware room, that is a virus

[rapid merlin]

please guys

[mossy river]

Disagree and I will just start crying

[glass nest]

Ok, thats another layer of irony

[rapid merlin]

#room-help

[serene canyon]

just smh

[shell nova]

I disagree

[pallid lotus]

Is a

[mossy river]

Typical French

[rapid merlin]

hey bro this fckin is asking help righ here

[serene canyon]

🥖

[pallid lotus]

Just out of interest, who is the primary user of this device?

[glass nest]

👀

[mossy river]

It’s only a worm if it moves between devices

[split compass]

Yeah, not a virus necessarily. Words have meanings, often understanding those meanings is a shortcut to understanding the technologies they describe.

[shell nova]

alright I'll stop the trolling here: no, this is an ethical hacking server. Please do not ask for that sort of thing. Besides, there's likely legit software that will allow that sort of thing

[mossy river]

If you continue to ignore staff and ask for help here and be rude, you will be muted

[pallid lotus]

"legit software"

[rapid merlin]

How much should I know before I approach Wreath network?

[split compass]

In this case Mobile Device Managers, and Remote Access Tools.

[rapid merlin]

i already asked at help room

[glass nest]

https://tenor.com/view/careful-be-careful-careful-now-picketing-boycott-gif-5181205

[rapid merlin]

no one care about me

[rapid merlin]

Someone help please

bad staff

[serene canyon]

wreath

[split compass]

Legitimate software, used by every corporation.

[serene canyon]

interesting

[rapid merlin]

yeah

[shell nova]

Should be, seems to have a legit use case

[mossy river]

It is. What you’re asking isn’t hacking, it’s just silly

[kindred plover]

theres always one guy "how do i hack xyz" "can someone hack for me"

[glass nest]

Whats the conensus on not-taking software?

[shell nova]

you missed the ethical part, my friend

[glass nest]

Obsidian isn't opening for me

[pallid lotus]

Arguable. That stuff is nearly always just used by domestic abusers unfortunately

[shut hawk]

Obsidian and Trillium are the main ones iirc

[mossy river]

Learn the basics.

[desert shuttle]

That was pretty entertaining at least

[mossy river]

Clearly

[pallid lotus]

Trilium. Always Trilium

[kindred plover]

I am a Notion enjoyer. Discords I'm in, everyone preaches to the high heavens about Obsidian. I've never used it

[mossy river]

You’re installing random files from people on telegram

[rapid merlin]

nerd 🙂

[shell nova]

unfortunately a lot of illegitimate use cases as well

[mossy river]

-unmute 1050059419083346011 auto mod don’t say the same thing over and over

Notes? I never got into them. I just use notepad++ and now git.

[shut hawk]

I use heptabase personally

[bitter apex]

Im just leaning some XSS, and I saw that the tel: URI scheme gets through DOMPurify, and it seems like it is able to run arbitrary js code like alert() through <a id=ok href=tel:alert(1337)> then calling ok. Why does this work, and is there a way for my to sanitize this workaround?

[shell nova]

anyways, you can probably abuse the ADB

[pallid lotus]

[mossy river]

Where did you get this supposed virus from?

[pallid lotus]

[serene canyon]

Everyone here must confess the supreiority of vim or suffer a fate worse than death ||blobknife||

[shell nova]

now now, be nice please or I'll be forced to mute you

[serene canyon]

[serene canyon]

[shell nova]

eh, it's fine

[glass nest]

I used Notion before, but wanna get into something different for my next push at this geekyness

[mossy river]

Jesus Christ your story is less consistent than my pasta sauce

[shell nova]

I feel sorry for your pasta

[pallid lotus]

Will send you a recipe

[split compass]

Neovim w/ lazyvim template + copilot

[shell nova]

please do

[serene canyon]

as long as it's not emacs

it's fine

nano sucks as well though

[ashen blade]

My school have somehow managed to download software on my computer. Now, it is only Adobe Express, however I did not know that this was going to occur, and I feel that the principle of it is incorrect. Do you guys think it is reasonable of me to reach out to someone and ask that this doesn't happen again?

[split compass]

I've heard recently recipes are not copywriteable. /Trivia

[shell nova]

it's also fine, depending on use case
