I'm contemplating going back to college but as an old guy it's gonna suck
Why college?
I've grown a ton in management. I love tech but I make more in management positions though I leverage my tech skills and do data style projects and build out reporting. School because I am degreeless but my wife has a doctorate and I feel naked among the friends lol.
Also thinking a tech based degree then snag an MBA
i appreciate you, im on mac so silicon doesnt allow for virtual box, what i ended up doing is setting up a VM in UTM and i just store everything on an ssd bc i dont like partitioning my mac
Damn right! I use Arch BTW ๐
Besides if I go for business management it would be easy, cyber sec it would be easy. Only programming would it be hard classes
It's more for the comfort of living than a professional need? Or kinda both huh
Both
Wanna know how to tell if people use Arch?
I stone two birds then
They tell you.
I have a solid resume, but it's easier with a degree and an eventual MBA would open me up to the upper levels of management, past manager.
I tried arch and hated every moment of it lol
No shame in saying it
Did it in a VM
At one point my poor PC had like 15 VMs
When I first fell in love with linux
Damn
True that, it's one way to make alotta green
I have Arch on bare metal. Full disk encryption. Hardened Kernal, FIsh as Shell, and KDE Plasma as DE
Superior being, I concede my crown
@mossy river @jagged moon
Never tried manjaro
Love that guy btw
If you like Arch, you'd like it. It's like...Ubuntu Arch. Driven boy community
:hammer: harry362#0 has been banned.
Sounds fun
Would run it sometime soon
Gracias Jabba
Jabba the batman
Test it out. It's one of the few Linux systems I truly enjoyed. Manjaro, Ubuntu, Mint, and I use PartedMagic a lot as a tool. And of course Kali/Parrot
Rasbian I guess when I mess around with it
How bout blackarch
It's arch but more offensive
Yup
Brain moments
I'm using RHEL for podman rn
I need to use it
To stay up to date
Between my fibro, my other mental things, and a med my memory tosses crap fast.
Trying to learn Hindi has been hard
One of the community crisis that's solved by the community as well
If there is one thing about Linux, it's community
Tried it, had issues when I was working some HTB rooms. Moved to ParrotOS
Even if we are a bit special
That's rare
My wife is Indian
I'm Indian too
Ooo, hallo
lol it shouldn't be - its literally a python program with a conda environment
Hindi or Tamil speaker?
Hindi
North boy
Nah, it's on W10 too.
Never tried parrot, is it green?
I'm heading to India for the first time in April
North East
Yup, D/l'ing now ๐
Where to?
Kalkatta and Jamshedpur
Great place to be
Try roshogulla
It's a delicacy
I'll keep it in mind
Apparently as the eldar son in law I have duties

You'll prolly get to eat that in the wedding XD
You sure do, and it'll be a pain
But you gonna find that lost love for sleep
Yeah. Good news is I love Hindi music, I know Hindu culture, and I love Bolly/Tollywood movies
Just a heads up, the second stage takes quite a lot time - it looks like the progress bar is frozen but it isn't)
My wife hates how often I suggest Baahubali or Tanhaji lol
Hey Rin, found a place yet?
I'll just walk away, lol.
I hate screen staring.
Kali ๐
Dudeee the date got pushed all the way to 27th May
Plan's a dud
It's not official yet
Plenty of time to wait anyway. ๐
But the chances are it would be 27th
Goddamn where you sittin
Country side ๐
Ah, I see
Actually, we got two more interns from my uni and they took the offer on campus so uni is deciding their dates
I decided mine
But dunno if they'd decide mine as well or wut
Vacation?
Ah, I see
No, it's where I live. ๐
Let's just hope everything goes as planned
Yeah
How exams?
Irish? Who?
Btw you should prolly get familiar w cricket XD
lol
They'll start on the 29th and I'm shit scared lol
You'll prolly be able to crack em, they'd be easier than what you faced off against in pre-boards
That's the thing, I didn't write the pre boards...
Get ready to rumble

Hello, do some of you guys feel a bit of lack of motivation sometimes when studying? I started around 4 months ago, and have been studying daily. Even though I have already learned a lot, it is a lot of information and I feel like I wonโt ever be as good as most of the people. I constantly need help to figure the rooms out and the answers always seem so simpleโฆ does anyone feel the same and have something that can help with some encouragement?
You plan on getting into IIT?
33%ile...
Yup, burnouts and imposter syndrome are normal but temporary. Keep up the grind and be on lookout for every opportunity you come across
I know
On the day of the result, I saw so many things, you know what they are
๐ , put in the hard work ๐
And bagged Msft anyway
The only numbers I care about are the ones in my bank acc
Same rules as the gym. Check your ego at the door and lever look sideways.
It's a personal journey
Friends and folks who are part of the community and who enable you, associate with them. But never compare.
It's life, shit happens
Yup
Btw weren't you up for US this year?
You telling me. I tore my right thumbs UCL, had surgery, 6 months later have tears in my left thumb
lol
Lemme have my hands universe
Yeah, but even with a scholarship I can't afford the tuition haha
- US student work laws are very very strict, don't wanna get kicked out of the country
Same boat, gonna work for 2 some years and gonna shift to US
Harsh
How'd you manage
There are many decent unis you can get into around where you live
And alotta skill issue
@shut hawk did u manage to install the chat with rtx
yeah
Employers are starting to hire at a decent pay as well
So you do have a shot
is it smart or dumb?
Me being a bug tester for their WSL instance, I'm kinda biased 
Fair
What firewall you working on?
Host based?
it's not black/white, remember its an interface for a LLM model - so it depends heavily on the model you use, and what you use it for
Oh I thought it was its own model
Yeah same, bit disappointed by that tbh
There are plenty of interfaces out there (like AnythingLLM) that are much better imo
@mossy river
Iโm guessing itโs not you youโre looking to have โhackedโ
We donโt do that here, itโs not a hackers for hire discord server
Just depends on the quality and quantity of data fed
I mean the interface
Not the model specifically
Keep it PG13 @fading osprey
Can we feed data to an interface and make it better?
:hammer: xyzny#0 has been banned.
I'm not sure what you mean, the interface is the GUI / How you access the model
Yes and it connects to the LLM
1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1..........................
-1.2 smth
-1/12
Ah I see, hmm, yeah I guess
You're right
Was it? My maths is bad
I'd just say n(n+1)/2 and be done w that one
where rare ingame drop
It dropped
But it ultimately depends on if the LLM Dev's made it such that the LLM can get trained via interface too
@mossy river ngl saw that coming...
it annoying as there is about 3 mins of unskippable cutscene for each raid run before the drop
What shadow playin
Evolved Dragonfable?
Mornin james
Evening
What time is it?
THM no stickers left. ๐
dragonfable... the evolved part is just the name of the custom launcher
and the drop called bonehead is about a 1% drop
Jabba, when re-stock?
How long have you been at it?
about 2 hours total now... just recently started on this grind
2 hours seems decent
come and see me at EMFCamp I will bring like 15 thm white bg thm stickers ๐
Where that
I have a race that weekend ๐ฆ
Electromagnetic Field is a non-profit UK camping festival for those with an inquisitive mind or an interest in making things.
Say you applied for a company, they gave you 4 weeks to complete the application then, 1 week in, they suddenly say you only have till the rest of the week to do it - is this normal for applications? Seems pretty unfair to me
But the weekend is over
just come and run over. Think of it as a water station
yuups
Possibly the volume of applicants.
Aand it's Evening there rn?
Fast forward
Not bothered about the reason, but if you tell somebody you have 4 weeks clearly, is it not unfair to suddenly bring forward the deadline?
Scrubz you're running what 20 miles say, what's another 100/200?
3rd year Uni, and we're getting tutorials on how to set up VM's
I'd have no toe nails left ๐ฎ
Can we make that more?
Yeah, it's a dick move.
Bad luck in my car both times. Learning to do everything fingers only to cope lol.
I'll bring toe nails. Will sit in the same bag as the stickers
As a gamer, it hurts the soul
perhaps
Far ._.
That's painful, yes
Roulette dip
Sounds like a party where a bunch of folks have a rave concert inside a massive Faraday cage
in fact that's about 95% correct lol
LOL wut
I'm hoping to get a DJ slot
That's amazing
Aight g'night peeps
Dj BeN, in Da Hoose.
Got school tomorrow
Rest up
And it's 1 am xD
See ya around sir

alright time for the next run
EMF, the only place I've been to where they actually encourage bringing flamethrowers (if you tell them first)
> watches BBC video
> Internet distributed via a network of...PORTA LOOs?! lmfao
Rammstein would like an invite.
Which type of flamethrowers?
the flame throwing ones

Icey cold ones
No like tiny handheld ones, backpack ones or self crafted
I think all of the above?
Preferrably mounted on a WW 2 Churchill chassis
Wackiest creation you saw, ben?
hmm interesting
am jealous, EMFcamp looks cool
Problem with real flamethrowers
It's a gooey napalm
SOmething goes wrong, you can't fix it
u can
carry around a fire extinguisher in the backpack also
I see flaws in that plan.
a bunch of germans making a flamethrower something about 4 tents away. That and like rovers on spheres that could go on all axis
that and a robot shot dispenser
You don't want to mix heat source and extinguisher lol
๐
Damn lol
I was thinking more miss-matching the type of extinguisher and the type of fire.
interesting...
Otherwise there is an opportunity to learn a whole lot about physics that no one nearby will forget soon
You made anything?
Eh napalm goes out with most simple dry chemical extings
Pretty sure a basic ABC will put it out
Oh sorry was driving. It's on an Lenovo ThinkServer RS160, OPNSense
welp not even a free storage drop grrrr
May the god of RNG shine favourbly on your next run.
If not, we'll slay them.
RNGSus
well got good luck on friday... got a 1% drop in 48 runs
What are you playing?
I mean, they made the bar have an API. Like.....amazing
some quests have long cutscenes
some have skip cutscene buttons
some basically have zero cutscenes
what game u playing shadow?
I played FFXIV for about 2 years, no idea about the cut scene, I skipped all of them.
Man I loved all the cut scenes in FFXIV when I played
Better story than 99.9% of games
I actually had some feelings as the story progressed about some things that went down
dragonfable
oh k
sadly it is one of the older quests so the cutscenes are not skippable
and add up to about 1-3 mins of down time
Heheheeh. Got glasses today, am putting my new ability to look at things farther away than 30cm (1 ft) to good use, visiting dad, who has a 4K TV
I don't need channels. All I need is a HDMI cable ๐
wait so BeEF just needs for a person to click the link and u get their browser?
not displayport???
BeEF ๐
shrugs
How many playthroughs, betting its 1
what?
Out dated useless unethical tool.
welp no free storage drop this run either
it doesent work?
time for the next one
I'd be surprised if works these days.
I'm at less than 100 documented hours, so yeah, less than 1. Wonderful game though, now at least
alright thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #2 - 1982)
Yup I played it in november
My assignment exceeds the 100MB maximum submission size 
I made the mistake of buying it for my PS4 (NOT pro) at launch day.
what is it
Compression ๐
TF did you do
Not allowed :(
interesting
Womp Womp.
I bought it when it was all proper and played it when it was running great
I tried to export it at a lower quality and itโs somehow bigger ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
even enjoyed the phantom liberty expansion
Check if it's checking for file extensions
HOW
CDPR games are never proper 
what encoding are you using
They can be worse than Bethesda for bugs.
No, itโs not allowed on the submission form.
I can compress it and submit it, but if I do my lecturer will fail me
on launch yes
but i hear they did a full turn around
but when I played it didn't face many issues
ran it with ray tracing even on high settings
CDPR games will never be proper.
That's the beauty of them.
womp womp womp
What exactly do you mean by proper/
another none free storage item
The same thing you did when you called it proper.
eh like bug free and working as intended
It's far from bug free.
Eh. nothings ever bug-free
I'm bug free
My caffine problem isn't a bug, it's an intended feature
didn't experience bugs except when I installed like 20 mods
You're just lucky, and that's the joy of bugs.
You may get them, you may not.
hmm
Applied penetration testng homework.
Setup OpenVas
Setup Nessus.
I just want the course work released.
do you though?
but then we gotta hear you moan about it
I won't moan after it's released.
I'll be busy hacking.
Only IRL hacking I ever did was save my brothers PC a few years back when he got locked out and it was still Windows 7 so you could force open the terminal at the login screen and change the password
God 7 without being linked to an online account was so...unsecure
Uhm thats real homework?
Well, it is for the class.
I already have them.
but like its so easy
soemthing easy for u might not be easy for others?
Exactly.
download nesuss.exe
Shrug. Its a pre-requsite.
click install
Where can I download more ram
From Emma
cringe ego @buoyant tree
I actually watched a special on those pieces of software that "added more ram" to your PC back in the 90s
Fun stuff to examine how they scammed folk
Unless you have a 'Turbo' or 'Boost' button on your PC
Like its a minimal effort task
Used to have one on one of my older gaming PCs that ACTUALLY had a noticible impact on certain games lol.
Some people don't know that though, they don't use vulnerability scanners in their other classes.
Turbo works good on my laptop, 15 extra fps
However, would it not be prudent for a lecturer to ensure each of the students are prepared for the upcoming assignment? Perhaps you are putting too much importance on the word 'Homework'?
yea perhaps thinking of homework more seriously
Sometimes University work is preparation for other modules (or the same module).
For example, I have had whole classes to setup development environments.
An easy task for me, but not everyone has had that experience.
It also means that for future classes, students shouldn't need support because it is already setup.
We get taught less in class and are given homework to learn it all from home
hmm
The majority of University learning is done on your time.
"Shouldn't" ๐
You mispelled all ๐ญ
Hello guys do you have any advice where i can find cheap windows 10 or free
or 11 idk
Windows 10 and 11 are free.
i have kind of old computer and its windows 7
and ive found keys for windows 10 for like 15usd
u can upgrade from win 7 to 10 for free if i am not mistaken
That sounds like piracy and is not to be discussed here
Not anymore.
ok sorry i didnt know its illegal
This reminded me, I need to transfer my Windows XP off my HDD's on to my comp
XP? Wow. Busting out the IDE cables ๐
You guys ever play any of the programming games like Comet 64?
Too many
Mr. Beefy
played hackmud for a few days
Do have a unique feeling
legend of Zelda Rupee on your name now ๐
A: Yes
B: You say "patch" but patch implies that there is something wrong. A user is trying to access an account that does not belong to them. Even though it is a bait account, it's not exactly like an innocent user is being tricked, it is a malicious user. Furthermore, IP addresses are made out to be more sensitive than what they really are. They do not reveal your location and it would take a damn skilled hacker to get into a local network via the router. A hacker with this type of skill wouldn't need to setup a bait account, they could do something more complex like setting up their own server or even attempting to phish a user into revealing their IP address.
shadows public ip is multiple towns off on shadows real location
Gave +1 Rep to @mossy river (current: #6 - 1161)
Just depends where the DNS is pulled from.
Mine gets pulled from England most times.
well there is a kinda long list of reasons why it is that way here with this isp.... won't go into details as that would get you closer to finding shadows real life location or cause problems with the isp
we already know how to find shadow's location, call every major cheese distributer and ask them who thier biggest buyer is
well at best those get the correct town... at worst they get nothing at all as even the country for the ip could be wrong
Only the owner's ISP can know your exact location
and most of the time the isp does not known your exact location either until asked to retrive it
I couldn't find my XP ISO's then I remembered Ben sent me them ๐
wait ben is dealing out xp iso:s???
whose Ben ๐
Not really, ISPs will sometimes detect this and take action
You're more likely to get your location outed by local government/LLC/property records than you are from an IP
I suggest conducting a query utilizing your favorite search engine for "ddos mitigation techniques"
Nearest server.
For some people that's on the other side of their city.
It's not accurate and people that pull IP addresses for it are dumb
I have a question ; What is the role of types of operating systems ุุ such as batch operating system etc..
Linux does this too?
Yeah. But it at least says .txt.txt
I saved it as hash.txt and then as text file
so it becomes .txt.txt
If you set Windows to show extentions it should show it too
Is there anyone for me to answer my question?
..
Is this home work?
No, I just want to get to know you
By script kiddies probably
You don't need an answer to that question to get to know us.
Why, brother, I just want help
It seems a homework question though.
Say I found a vulnerable website how do i make sure im not breaking any laws and where do i tell them
Check if they have a bug bounty or security.txt
Not that, brother
Okay sister, an exam quesiton?
no security.txt and no bug bounty programme i dont think
Then I'd leave it alone.
if they do not have a bug bounty or security.txt and you did not break something to find said bug... the contact us emails could sometimes work
still at that point it is kinda risky
No, just study a course on operating systems
So you are doing coursework.
imma just gonna do what scrubz said
Come on mother, you could have said that.
yes
Sadly father, we don't help with such work.
Ask whomever teaches you.
I don't think anyone will answer this question here
Unlucky brother, but you need to ask the teacher, only then sister will you get the answer you seek.
Well, I want to share with you the operating systems course. I want you to tell me what you think about it
I teach myself at home
What do you think of this operating systems course?
Can't wait to use my new daily driver /s
Damn, the best OS
Fun fact, iirc, the network stack comes up before the host firewall boots
The vulnerabilities come up before the OS.โข๏ธ ๐
Meaning if you connect it to a network, you aren't protected for like 30 seconds
Boots up smoke bomb
Uhh hackers... Please wait a minute. I have to get my coffee
Yeah, I read the network stack boots up on BIOS.
back in dcom days, you better wasnt connected to the net xD
Anyone here good with CAD?
Afraid not. Ralex is the one I'd ask
probably off shooting stuff with lasers
What's the question about CAD?
What is it?
I'm passable on various bits of CAD
Much better in 2D
I need a 3 inch by 3 inch round container
Flatland for the win
'tis where PCBs live, and panels
Internal or external diameter
until you need multi layer pcbs..... which is kinda nightmare fuel for shadow
External I do believe
always added or removed things on the wrong layer and then you gotta redo a lot of work
If you're in something that's Solidworks-esque you can make a cylinder and then make a negative cylinder to core out the middle
Pretty sure there'd be a Blender tutorial on that
I got FreeCAD but never used a CAD program before, so all this is gibberish to me lol
You might be better with sketchup
Any special features?
Nope, just a basic round container
Or just download a 3d print project file and change the dimensions on the slicer
Thats what I'd do ๐
Tried looking for one... lemme try again
Just look for "3d printed cup"
or a round jewellery box. Should be easy enough to remove any fancy bits
I was told I will need some XP machines for stuff, but we all know it's for this badboy...

ouch, right in the memories!
Last pic of the night, enjoy!
Ultimate version control 
I got even better version control
and so on
nice, using venv with the whole file system I hope
eh
tho does github allow u to upload tb big repo's
5GB per file on enterprise plan afaik. Tbf Iโd hope there would be concerns if you uploaded a whole filesystem lmao
still no bonehead drop ;-;
Idk if I asked this question. But to the Brits. Do y'all get your shots in school?
I don't think my school ever did
Wsn't it nasal?
Oh found it, Tetanus, diphtheria and polio
yes that would be
I never remembered having jabs at my school tho
then got hepatitis and something else at uni for south africa
I just realized you are probably talking about vaccinations ...
then in the medica lfied you have to get some annually but it's usually cold/flu etc depeds on the org
We got vaccinated for Ligma
I am glad that the UK ahs a strong program/culture for it
I didn't cry during the vaccination!
the US used to have a strong culture for it, dunno what happened to us
i have to have two to practice medicine every year. I used to hate needles but then I used to give them during covid and that mostly fixed it for meee
"practice" is a strong word for it haha
were you training to be a doctor?
lollll
Lockbit has been seized by Europol
is this for real
Yes
bruh
W
nahhhhh. Used to help out a lot in hospitals and stuff during covid but recently just doing medical cover for events and stuff
black hats are sanctionaised by goverment
before cybersec wanted to be a paramedic but then i couldn't transfer course at Uni as it was too late in the year
Finally off work
so sad man we dont have privacy on internet anymore
we dont know but goverment is tracking every our move
on internet and in real life
Privacy for protection
hi
Let's not go into all the conspiracy theories
anymore? carnivore was established 1997 and i would bet there were prior things before
for real
"Carnivore, later renamed DCS1000, was a system implemented by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that was designed to monitor email and electronic communications. It used a customizable packet sniffer that could monitor all of a target user's Internet traffic. Carnivore was implemented in October 1997."
thanks for information
Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #2 - 1983)
wish police would close all the scam call centers
oh k
ayee
plus uni is too expensive to run through for the 3rd time lmfao
maybe via another pathway one day once im done with cybersec
still no drop for shadow.... this is starting to get straining
Idek what Iโd do cyb sec didnโt work out - been chasing this since I was 13 now ๐
well, if it's anything, cybersec ain't going anywhere soon ๐
Damn right man :D
cybersec
IT
Programming
forensics
locksmith
Just go for a job in demolition
Break stuff quickly
does UK have anything like Physician's asssistants in the US? Basically if someone was in the medical field, often EMTs / military medical and others, they can go 2 years to physicians assistant school (it is generally at a medical school). PAs are basically allowed to do everything doctors can do except major surgeries
Not enough reporting xD
Eh who needs reporting, its broken
and that is shadows top 5 list of jobs that they can consider doing
I almost quit cybersec to go into nursing... pre-covid, I was burnt out
โThe audit is in the pile or rubble sirโ
but then I discovered cloud security
how's cloud security working out for you, tried to learn a little of it but its overly complicated for me right now
I love it honestly
similar sort of concept. There's different routes/pathwyas into medicine here. Levels essentially, you can get there a few different ways, but the levels determine what you can do. Bit complicated but happy to have a chat about it ๐
playing league
ahh no, just curious since you already have worked in the medical field, would be cool if they had a pathway like that for y'all
Pentesting. (Find vulnerabilities)
Software testing. (Find normal bug's)
Except GAMSAT is a pig of an exam ๐ฆ
for me
I also love seeing PAs and Nurse Practitioners (another quasi doctor equivalent here in the US)
I do so many random things that I don't really have that thought of burning out
but yes there are things such as for military etc, you can be a medic in the army and spend a little bit of time (a much shorter time than say a "traditional" paramedic) in school after your service and be on the same level as a paremdic
Nurse Practitioners are very popular for every day stuff, OB/GYN, kids doctors, general checkups
same for Physicians Assistants, although I also see Physicians Assistants in Dermatology offices because they can do minor surgeries
we have GPs here who are basically that. Lot's of community general ailment stuff. NPs equiv would be hospitals or on call nurses i think
that is our RNs (Registered Nurses)
Question: What should I learn today, wanna do something linux or web related
no windows/AD
Nurse Practitioners have to be RNs first, Physicians Assistants have to be some type of medical field
I tried to be a Doc, but didn't work out
https://github.com/Andre0512/hon
This is funny. All the info about a large company trying to take down an open source project got the community furious. Every source you need is in here.
(And the home assistant stuff for GE stuff too)
RNs are hospital nurses/ on call nurses. They can't prescribe medication but Nurse Practitioners can
ahhh fair
same, same
nurses can here but they have to complete seperate training for it
cos I have a non-science degree, thres only 1 route for me which was a 5hr exam
Nurse independent prescribers
but then there are scheduling rules there so not every drug
not even doctors can I think?
time to fork it also
ben - Yah some super specialty stuff has to be given by a specialist
2000+ people forked it already 
now 2001+
yup. HEMS etc
once I remember my github password
originally the.. umm.. 'little blue pill' had to be prescribed by a urologist. That changed pretty quickly though
lool
OTC baby
it is good that pharmacists can prescribe some though but I've only come across like ... 2 who can
Beeeeeeeeeeeen
ello
I need to tell you something cool
Yah. the pharmacists change almost daily at any of my locals
I think only pharmacists can prescribe vaccines
pretty much ahah
in the US that is
pray tell
Basically my whole family knows I am non-binary now
pog!
Yeeee
congrats
They were like "finally"
Thats old news, Bella tell him the newer news!
LMFAO
Yeahhhh
Oh and I have a meeting with a cool director tomorrow
About an even cooler project
"It's about damn time"
I read this as "my whole family knows how to count in binary" (forgive me, I'm sick)
and I was like that is impressive feat
Lmao, don't worry
Sick as in... a dog wearing shades riding a skateboard, sick?
sick as flu or something
pogggg
Aw no. Right as the winter is ending aswell
i'm more like feeling achy / tired than anything
Yeah, can I DM about the project ๐
ofc ofc
Bella: And your crib...
Oh yeah that too!
I finally got everything up and running in my apartment, and started on a weight-loss journey and lost 2.3kg so far!
Basically, CMN - you thought it was the Year of the Dragon. Nuh uh. It's the Year of the Bella.
Yuuuup
I feel like a proud Uncle ๐
17.7kg more to go and I am back at my old model form
Normal? Naaaaah. no-one wants you to be normal Bella. We like you how you are ๐
No this isn't normal, this is peak performance Bella
nede to get myself back in the gym
used to 4 days a week abd cycle every day
then I got lazy lmfao
And being angry at busses ๐
Fair enough, Credit where it's due
Yup
In this video I share with you my solution for the CodeWars "Is the King in check?" challenge. Inspired by a recent tic-tac-toe challenge, I imposed an additional constraint to use a regex to determine if the king is in check. The result was a satisfying and somewhat mind-blowing one liner!
Codewars challenge: https://www.codewars.com/kata/5e28...
Regex is crazy
I was actually working on a Regex room before I left
Hey! I have opnsense setup on my home labโฆ.I see most ppl have pfsense, is pfsense better to have or does it not matter much?
imho opensense has a nicer UI and seems to be quicker at releases and is better at open source, but they're more or less both pretty good
nop
its too viral of a meme now
Alrighty thankss!
@lone thistle you feeling alright there bud? Unlike you to spend so much time with us lol

loooool
Hello folks
ello clone.... shadow is watching avatar the last airbender
been a long time since I saw that animation/cartoon
The early 2000 animated show?!
yuups.... never got to watch it as a kid
Shocked, but also, HELL YAH
I watched it, I have broken memories of it tho
luckly a friend apparently bought the blu ray box set and let shadow lend it for now
niceeeeeee
on the last episode of season 1/book 1 water
be careful as the laser for reading and writing in those can be very bad for your eyesight
yea, haven't plugged it in atm
first cleaning
but eh these players are worth over 600$ brand new
so if i restore them, easy savings
It's so cute, we have a local stray cat that lives at the train station in my town
People have put out a bed and the room is heated
pretty great
u got a picture?
Had to go to my car, so no sadly not, it's almost 2 am
sounds almost like the huge phenomena that is the cat luffar lasse in sweden
The funny thing is, the cat looks exactly like lasse
and watched all of book 1 water of avatar the last airbender and therefor timey whimey meepity meep mooppity moop sleep sloop to the beep boop times
opensense is probably great for a home lab. You will probably like the opensense gui better anyway
How do I get to my saved rooms?
mods can I pretty please get A+, Net+, and Sec+ roles? Thanks!
click profile, go to my rooms
life saver
Trying to map.my SMB share, windows is telling me that the drive is already mapped. Use net use command... no drive is mapped. Use the net Use command in admin powershell to map the drive with the creds....
Microsoft still says "hah, no mapped drive for you"
FINNALY got it. Still not happy
Did you deploy the right machine?
Does the room you're trying to access tell you to use SSH?
Are you using the right username?
yes
yes
username should always be tryhackme should it not
i was wrong
user@[IP]
john the ripper ?
nop
how can I make a 3 room with friends ?
thats a password cracker
ssh2john id_rsa > hash.txt
depends on the room.
it should tell you the username
chmod 700 hash.txt
what are you yapping about
@normal flare
lol
huh
have no idea grams
speak french ?
@slender scaffold DC 32 Online reg is open!
Or are you still gonna be "11 PM Linecon for a 7 AM open"
a bit, but here in the general just english ๐
ok
i speak american
that's the cross we have to bare ๐
ok ok
any new wine?
I thought you were going to say Asahi
the most popular outside Japan
Oh fuck that
I look for alcohol I don't understand, or know what it is. I'm adventurous when it comes to food
it was good?
Oh yah, I've had this one before and I like it
rises
Had at a Habachi place, but not from the Japanese supermarket I like to go to

kali > ubuntu? and why?
There is a Manjaro based handheld gaming system coming out!
I don't think anyone would state that
its equal but kali have pre installed tools
.
kali is based on Debian, why? because who created it chose it that way
I don't know if I'd use Kali for gaming though
hey I also have some doubt , I have good exp with kali but not with other distro like redhat or fedora
so do I need exp in that distro?
maybe, depends
It's good to know the major distros
Kali has one specific purpose, don't use it outside that
^
if you want to do Linux administration and/or work with Linux in an enterprise, knowing RedHat is good
Kali shouldn't be used as a daily driver or anything either.
Would you use a golf cart, to drive it in a highway as a car?
you'd be surprised
RHEL is solid to learn as that's a popular server choice
Then pick up a daily driver that works for you
hmm I will start to have some exp in that
you don't have to use Linux as a daily driver to learn Linux
You ever seen a jet powered golf cart
Fedora is RH based and great distro for using on daily basis
yes, its solid if you are looking for a job in IT/Cybersecurity
is it going to be very differ in use or similar to debian
you don't have to do a lot of things but people still do those things ๐
there are some differences, but like RedHat knowledge on a resume is solid
Debian/Ubuntu tend to be more home user distros although some corps may use them due to licensing costs
nice info
true, good luck to them
and what about centos and fedora
you can still use Alma for server and is based on RH
CentOS is dead-ish...
you can also use Rocky
Centos doesn't have a support that used to have after the whole debacle a bit ago, I'd go with Fedora, Alma or Rocky
Rocky is pretty nice
I haven't used Rocky, I used the old Centos, Fedora and Alma
Also RH before go corporate ๐
I have a Rocky VM somewhere around here
Hi
I fall in love with Linux a while ago and since then I've never skipped a day ๐
I have started to build projects , I made common tools with python and bash
my question is should I make more project with python and bash or should I try more other scripting lang
like with powershell
or many other
I fell in love with Unix many years ago but the allure of using it as a daily driver has long faded
powershell can be useful if you plan to work with azure
Thatโs a tough question! Cause according to LVCC rules they kick people out at 2:30am lol. I might prereg :3 but still go early
otherwise stick with python and bash
personally I hate powershell ๐
I use to hate it but now I kinda like it
Powershell is fine, sometimes a bit more verbose than I'd like
the biggest RH customers tend to have business requirements for paid support - if paid support isn't required, a LOT of places will go with whatever their people know. I have seen a fair amount of ubuntu in corpo life
projects are personal if you feel the need to go into something more complex go for it, nobody will tell you no ๐
that isn't really a reply specific to Zojja, just supplemental for others
AYYYYY! Joining the Pre Reg gang!
Juun, you coming to DC32?
we use some ubuntu but its a small portion, so its not unheard of but like I said, licensing costs will drive some away from RH or at least for some use cases. Like Dev/experimental work? maybe you don't need RH specifically
indeed, it has some reputation and you don't need to pay for it.
we were looking at Rocky as an alternative for certain use cases but we just decided to dive full into RH
I'll add in, a lot of FOSS enthusiasts and supporters see the current shift from Centos LTS to Stream and the recent changes to upstreaming source code to build your own distro as anti-thetical to FOSS principles of openness and transparency
Not saying don't learn RH, fedora is still the host OS on a couple of my boxes at home
but also the differences aren't huge although if you going for a junior Linux admin position, RH variants probably going to be more useful
I think Rocky is perfectly fine to use - they have to go through a lot of hoops to de-brand the RHEL source code before they can GA a new build
and i'll support them when and where i can
I know of one place they had a mix, RHEL, Oracle Linux, Ubuntu
Oracle Linux is what happens when Oracle builds their own RHEL. It also kind of sucks, IMO
they add a lot of clutter to the kernel that doesn't need to be there
It's also oracle, so "evil empire" and all that. YMMV
I expect nothing less coming from Oracle 
Oracle, so much potential... like they couldn't keep Solaris alive...
don't trust them very much overall with any Unix variants
I heard from the rumor mill that one of the drivers of RH making those upstream changes to centos was to make life harder for Oracle Linux
I love Solaris
good on them
Don't forget the licensing changes to the JRE in 2018
Solaris was my first love
oh yeah the JRE stuff is a mess
it's one of the reasons I've moved purely to OpenJDK if i have to touch any Java or JVM codebases
I don't remember seeing any BSD there, but yah! Been ages since I've used a BSD based system. Last one I used was GhostBSD in a CCDC.
Opnsenseโฆ?
and of course Oracle DB is also a mess
is devsecops not part of it?
Oh Opnsense is BSD?
my first love was the first version of Slackware, there I fell in love with Linux, after that explore SCO, Solaris, FreeBSD and many Linux distros
Yes
Forgot bout that lol
what version is ODB up to?
Same with pfsense
part of what?
with security
devsecops is largely a mess. It's a secure pipeline with very little security team involvement, aside from review
oh that's why
"oh you shouldn't build images with root/password as default credentail pairs" "can't let that slow production"
DevSecOps isn't a role
its a process... a process which every org will define differently
where did that list come from?
in my experience, it's usually defined poorly. it's good to hear the occiasonal story that it's not a disaster though
Well I haven't worked "within" BSD. Just their webUI
we do pretty good with DevSecOps but again its not a persons title
Gentoo is better anyways
Then again, when I was using GhostBSD, I was using Nagios XI
that goes through my mind everytime I hear dev sec ops ๐
I don't get it?
Secret ops ๐
Sec isn't for secret tho
Ahhh Nagios, how confusing you were to learn on the spot... cause I was not about to pay $3,000 for a license to learn you...
I know, but my mind goes there ๐
Thought you have or had OPNSense setup in your rack?
Because of thr BSD networking PPPOE issues?
had a conversation like a hour ago with someone about how nobody really uses nagios anymore outside of "eh well it's what i already know so whatever"
I haven't used it...... fuck, in like 7 years
Hey guys I got call from a private number. There wasn't any number or info shown.
How can I know the number? Is there any way?
is it even worth the trouble
Yo
I just got a scam call too hahaha
Must be going around
But do have a question. Does anyone watch Scammer Payback? Pierogi? He has like an online sim from a particular service or company that he uses to call or get calls from the scammers. Wouldn't that mean he could see network activity to do with those calls? Packets n such
!docsverify
sleek, what should I start w to make my own?
eyyy zojja, long time
I'm learning CyberSecurity..
is anyone having insight about Plesk Obsidian 18.0.53 version vulnerability ?
katamari damacy?
My only regret in life is that I'll never be that stylish.
Yoo varg.
If I get a call from a private number I don't answer, if you have the need to hide your number, I hide my attention ๐
They aren't adopted 
Who?
A server lol
Or that Zimba board thing?
Lockbit go bye bye
who keeps moving me lol
is it da game?
For now. Love how these takedown pages are updated for the times and international cooperation heh
Heya Ellie
finished 2001
got a few questions
about the ending
arghh, i need ur help figuring 2001: a space oddyseyy out
I google numbers before answering ๐
Thatโs the point lol, but itโs cyclical and birth of next step of human evolution, just as you saw with the apes
yea but still a few more questions
such as what exactly is the black object
is it a alien
Also the ending is just deliberately trippy and wild and I love it
or a unknown object
I hate these free willed endings that leave it for the viewers to interpret them
But one thing insane is how they added AI into the movie WHEN its 1969
Mhmm
yea apes
wonder if they used humans in costumes
or real apes
Glad you finished it
yea so am i
They were humans in costume, well done for sure
Absolutely
yup easily one of my favorite movies before 2000's
also watched arrival, great new plot
now watching top gun maverick
Glad to hear it, yeah slow paced but super atmospheric and amazing themes
again
Heck same with Arrival
eh didn't have that much of a attention span issue with Arrival
