I cannot see anything on pinned

Maybe Jabba saved me?

Saved us*

[sick lance]

WDYM, it's there?

[oak river]

AAAH

I thought you pinned something else and got removed

[rapid merlin]

hi me new

[oak river]

Hey!

[sick lance]

Hi new, I'm Scrubz.

[rapid merlin]

Hi scrubz im new

[sick lance]

How are you?

[cosmic pendant]

Hi New!

[rapid merlin]

im great wbu

[sick lance]

Yeah, can't complain 🙂

[bold dawn]

these are super important to the safety of the server. I think everyone should read them

[jaunty prairie]

look at you trying to give me more work than I already have. If only somebody could break it down for me in song and dance

[near hawk]

So these are the rooms that will be part of the new web application path

[deep isle]

[jaunty prairie]

I noticed some new channels coming up. Any chance of an LFI/RFI type channel to be coming?

[sick lance]

The new channels are related to new room releases.

So maybe if there is a new one released.

[jaunty prairie]

oh my bad. I didn

t notice they were for rooms

[near hawk]

I imagine as a new webapp path is coming out as stated in the 3m blog post then i would most likely guess there will be

[jaunty prairie]

I didn't see that post. guess I should follow some THM socials. Thanks!

thats dope af. I look forward to that

[near hawk]

I know most people will be excited for dark mode after so many years of asking

[steel mountain]

Hi guys, Do u know how I can remove all media from my discord given from a specific person. I think they installed spyware or something on my phone 😡

Also, how will I know if spyware is installed on my phone?

[sick lance]

If in doubt, factory reset phone.

But discord warns you before you download anything from Discord.

[blazing granite]

but nobody pays attention until something happens 😂

[steel mountain]

Is there a way I can delete my chat with someone and delete the things they sent me on discord?

[sick lance]

Deleting their chat won't have any effect on what is stored on your phone.

[steel mountain]

Well, in my defence I thought discord had mechanisms in place to stop the spread of malware

[sand trench]

hahahahhaa yeah they try but it is definitely not fool proof

[sick lance]

They do, but if you click "ok" then... 🤷

[sand trench]

lost count of how many cdn links shadow reported for malware

[steel mountain]

Im planning to factory reset my phone but I wanna delete the chat

[steel mountain]

Ahh

[sick lance]

It's not stored on your phone.

[blazing granite]

maybe the most obvious one, but not 100% effective, hence the message 🙂

[steel mountain]

Im just scared. If i factory reset my phone and install discord again. If the person has set up the malware to automatically download on my phone or something?

[steel mountain]

😒

[sick lance]

You'd need to click the link again.

If in doubt, delete.

[oak river]

Imma rick roll myself for relaxation

[glossy portal]

For relaxation

[jaunty prairie]

I just had a listen myself

[steel mountain]

Okay. Just that I heard the pegasus spyware or something like that could be installed without clicking a link...if im not mistaken

[sick lance]

Some random won't have pegusus spyware... 😅

[steel mountain]

Yeah ik 😂

But if they have something similar? Idk

[sand trench]

0-click exploits are extremely rare and not often used for random people....

[glossy portal]

Likely not the case

[blazing granite]

Pegasus it way above the pay-grade of 99.99% people in Discord

[sand trench]

1-click are a bit more common but still rarely used for random people

[steel mountain]

Okah cool, thanks everyone

Looks like im gonna have to reset my bloody phone 😒😒😒

[sand trench]

huh 2 kernel updates in 2 days

linux kernel dev must be going brrrrr

[near hawk]

My 3 million shirt is on the airplane

Now probably gonna have to wait 2 weeks 😦

[sick lance]

Eep!

I haven't ordered mine yet.

[blazing granite]

make sure there aren't snakes too 😂

[near hawk]

Got a new hoodie and stickers coming as well

[sick lance]

STICKERS ARE ADDED!?

[near hawk]

Yea when 3 mil was hit lmao

It’s ashame they will take a while as they get dispatched from north carolina

[normal fable]

omg stickers!!

Now just waiting on the zip-up hoodie...

[near hawk]

Next will probably be socks and mousepads

[normal fable]

So down for socks..

[thorn grove]

It goes like a 🐐... lmao

[near hawk]

So how many stickers you getting scrubz?

I feel like with how excited scrubz was they’ll be sold out

[blazing granite]

an undisclosed amount I believe 😂

[normal fable]

I got one of each in my cart... lol

[near hawk]

Same, although it will probably take 2 weeks or longer as they’re coming from north carolina

[normal fable]

Ordered.. and a 3M users shirt. 🤣

[rapid merlin]

How to add 2 adapters( new network) to a MAC2 for a UTM VM.🙏

[sand trench]

nice for once the sticker and shadows bank account money lines up so shadow can buy the stickers

[sick lance]

I have a swag code I'm about to drop on it.

[sand trench]

shadow don't have one

still decided to order 2 tshirts and 2 of each sticker

[sick lance]

Can somebody link me the swag store?

I'm on mobile

[sand trench]

https://store.tryhackme.com/

[normal fable]

Curious.. Is there a THM warehouse or is everything drop-shipped? 🤔

[sand trench]

huh that embed looks whacky

[sand trench]

think they have a warehouse but not sure ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[crude stump]

Oh yeah

They restocked stickers

[sand trench]

yuups

finally shadows laptop can have a tryhackme sticker

together with the i void warranties for a living and queercon computer club

[sick lance]

Thank you

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 1711)

[sand trench]

no problem scrubz

was just copy url as shadow had it opened in the background

[normal fable]

I need a laptop for my stickers... lol

oh new icon for slash commands on discord... interesting

[rapid merlin]

Same

[sand trench]

shadows laptop is from 2017 so it is kinda old

aiming to buy a new desktop pc this year

to replace the laptop at home

[rapid merlin]

Got any recommendations

[sand trench]

for desktop pc??? or for laptops???

[rapid merlin]

Laptop

[sick lance]

18, I think

[rapid merlin]

Unfortunately I’m applying for loans for school so plan to use whatever’s left for a of

Pc

[worn thorn]

Framework Laptop is great.

[sand trench]

well shadow is kinda biased but here you go
system76 if you are in the usa
tuxedo if you are in europe
framework for easy of repair if you can get them to ship to you
most clevo based laptops if you can find those

[normal fable]

I was looking at Framework laptops..

[sand trench]

warning on the first 2 being expensive

[dusky dirge]

Best for which os?

[sand trench]

but they are linux by default laptops hence why they are in shadows recommended

[worn thorn]

both work

[sand trench]

they are designed for windows mainly but linux is heavily supported by the framework community

[normal fable]

I prefer Linux

[sand trench]

same alt ez

[dusky dirge]

I see

[dusky dirge]

Okay

[sand trench]

in this last 1 and a half year shadow has moved very deep into the linux echo system

[worn thorn]

If I ever need a laptop it will be a framework with linux. Windows will never touch it.

[sand trench]

now running a window manager and an arch linux fork

[normal fable]

Can still hang with Windows.. But get confused between shortcut keys and stuff...

[dusky dirge]

I use arch btw and kali

[sand trench]

sadly framework not ship to sweden yet

[worn thorn]

that's unfortunate.

[lone thistle]

Sorry, I can't talk about THM infrastructure
cc @sick lance

[normal fable]

[dusky dirge]

And India is hell

[boreal scarab]

Breh... some of these companies sending emails to me like "looking for food quality manager"

DO I LOOK LIKE I'M QUALIFIED TO LOOK OVER FOOD QUALITY... breh

[rapid merlin]

How about budget friendly

[sick lance]

Understandable 😄

[dusky dirge]

Yeah I said

[sinful cairn]

Ils not about the infrastructure, its the name of the tool actually

[sick lance]

Well you order enough?

[worn thorn]

battery moment

[steel mountain]

Does this mean I am protected (I didn't reset my phone) but someone said I shud install antivirus

[lone thistle]

It's part of how THM works behind the scenes and therefore I'm not allowed to talk about it. Sorry

[sick lance]

Depends on the AV.

[dusky dirge]

Is it late to join in buy bounty as compared to past years?

[steel mountain]

Which ones do u recommend?

[sick lance]

Not really.

[dusky dirge]

I got to know about hacking stuff in 2019 but due some reasons I didn't take step up

[sick lance]

Bug bounty isn't age specific, more skills.

[sick lance]

No idea, I don't use any.

[dusky dirge]

Yeah but I lost 5 years of skills

[sick lance]

But then, I also don't install dodgy stuff, or visit dodgy links.

[steel mountain]

Hmm okay, thanks tho

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 2177)

[steel mountain]

Lol if u say thank u to someone it gives them rep. Thats cool

🤣🤣doesnt work for me lool

[sand trench]

you can only give 1 rep point every 5 mins

[normal fable]

Best AV ever is: Safe browsing practices, don't run stupid shit, don't click on random links in emails...

[sand trench]

and obviously not give yourself rep points

[steel mountain]

Ahh okay, thanks for letting me know 😂

[sand trench]

no problem

[shell nova]

Sometimes they're clever.

[worn thorn]

can confirm. Defender did jack all to warn me.

[dusky dirge]

In the past I got access to some emails while scraping the internet archive

[steel mountain]

Ahh okay thank u, I do know that but its usually trusted ppl i know who may have hacked me

[normal fable]

Oh I know...

[dusky dirge]

And I got a Twitter account and discord which accounts created on 2017

What should I do

?

[sand trench]

*wonders who that random private number that called shadow was... shadow answered and said ello this is shadow and then it hanged up...

[worn thorn]

turn yourself in? Why would you take other people accounts.

[rapid merlin]

Best response

[dusky dirge]

Nope I didn't

[hollow pivot]

Ewww, zip-up hoodies should be illegal

[dusky dirge]

Check my accounts created date

[dusky dirge]

Read this

[worn thorn]

with that context it sounds bad.

[near hawk]

I remember giving a scammer a fake name told them to repeat it and i laughed at them and hung up and they weren’t very happy as they called back to argue

[sand trench]

shadows main email has been in so many breaches shadow consider it known public info and not worth protecting

[rapid merlin]

They should have their own custom linux command mouse pad

[dusky dirge]

Yeah but I got them by scraping is there anyway to report that?

Hotmails

[sand trench]

i.e not worth protecting from people randomly sending emails to them

still have good password and 2fa on it

[mossy river]

I gave a scammer my spam email address and three months later I get called by a different scammer from a different number and he provided that email addresss to me

I literally burst out laughing

[sand trench]

the weirdest probable scam call shadow got was from meeping hong kong

[sick lance]

[sand trench]

shadow answered like they usually do... person on other end say they are calling about some banking or money sending thingy... shadow hangs up as it is near midnight when they called

they never called back so it can not have been important

[shut hawk]

[sand trench]

DrGonz0 stating that about hoodies to know who to ban from tryhackme

[hollow pivot]

Seems like you have time to mess with scammers but not do CTFs

[sand trench]

so if anyone here wants shadows main email address shadow can give it freely... or you could just look at the email linked to shadows github account

[rapid merlin]

What’s GitHub

[sand trench]

15 breaches and one paste...

[mossy river]

I don't think you know how little brain power it takes to just leave my phone on while I do work in the background

[sand trench]

website for hosting code and programs using git

git is a versioning system to keep track of changes to code

[hollow pivot]

All I see is EXCUSES

[rapid merlin]

Ohh

[shut hawk]

service that allows you to store code/software in the form of git repos

[mossy river]

https://tenor.com/view/byuntear-cat-mocking-gif-13935821400850516732

[hollow pivot]

You could write solve scripts and have them solve challenges in the background

[sand trench]

hah

[rapid merlin]

Random question. Favorite cheese?

[nimble lily]

How much do you guys pay for yearly try hack me premium access? Anyone

[mossy river]

https://tryhackme.com/r/pricing

[nimble lily]

Thank you

[sand trench]

depends on for what usage...
currently looking forward to more smoked gouda grilled cheese sandwiches

[rapid merlin]

That’s what I be doing. Using Gouda on sourdough bread with rubbing a clove of garlic in the bread before buttering and towering

[sand trench]

currently not much due to onboarding thingy

[rapid merlin]

Toasting

[sand trench]

also love salami brie sandwiches

[rapid merlin]

Brie is 50/50 me sometimes

Love Sharp cheese

[hollow pivot]

Parmigiano and Comte

[rapid merlin]

Never had Comte

[hollow pivot]

Tome de chevre also

[hollow pivot]

They are so good when aged for long enough

[shut hawk]

@mossy river have you seen notions new calendar 👀

[mossy river]

no

[shut hawk]

https://www.notion.so/product/calendar/download

Was originally https://cron.com/

[mossy river]

gives me anxiety

they have a scheduling conflict

[sand trench]

haha sometimes shadow should read their email before ordering stuffs

[rapid merlin]

Sorry if that was personal

[sand trench]

nah that is fine

ordered 2 tshirts and 4 stickers from tryhackme

then found out shadow apparently won a free tshirt from tryhackme

hence the funny

[rapid merlin]

Nice. When I’m better with hacking I’ll start buying merch

[crude stump]

I mean

You don’t need to be good at hacking to buy merch

[sand trench]

A hacker embodies a boundless passion and insatiable thirst for understanding the complexities of a system, computers and networks in particular. They revel in the pursuit of knowledge and mastery, constantly seeking new solutions and opportunities for growth. Their drive and innovative spirit inspire and are inspired by the hacker community, where ideas and knowledge are freely shared and valued regardless of their origin.

[crude stump]

Still supporting tryhackme either way

[cosmic tusk]

[sand trench]

if you fall under that definition shadow already considers you a hacker

oh wow shadow actually successfully got 2 sequential tryhackme swag store order numbers

[buoyant tree]

Heya @mossy river saw u pinged me yesterday for a DM

[rapid merlin]

Thank you @sand trench but I’m still to new to be a hacker but that’s what I drive to be

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 1712)

[buoyant tree]

So if I like to break things I am a hacker?

[sand trench]

if you break the things to learn how they work internally yes.. if you just break things for the sake of breaking them no

[worn thorn]

I'd be master hacker by now with all the times windows broke

[buoyant tree]

Hmm

[sick lance]

1 hoody and 9 white and 9 black stickers.

[sand trench]

already got hoodies from tryhackme

[shut hawk]

tshirt? 👀

[sick lance]

Oh yeah, that too.

[rapid merlin]

Wouldn’t mind another hoodie or jacket for me connection

Collection

[sick lance]

Gonna put number 1 on the rep table on it.

[buoyant tree]

You used the stickers or are they framed

[pine stratus]

doing mr robot ctf , i fouund the wp passwd without using automation tools is that okay ? bc after finishing this ctf challenge i watched many yt videos , and they used tools in order to get the passwd 😭

[upper idol]

Hey guys! I am having issues with connecting to openvpn becuase of outdated ciphers

[sick lance]

#site-support please.

[dusky dirge]

Where can I give suggestions to tryhackme?

[sick lance]

#feedback-and-ideas

[sand trench]

if you have watched the mr robot show it would not be surprising to guess the password

[pine stratus]

i watched it ; but i didnt guess

it was located in a specific place x)

[sand trench]

oh yeah heard about that way in too

most people just brute force it

[quasi hedge]

Why are there new rooms for XSS and CSRF, weren't there old ones also.

[sick lance]

Newer content is always a bonus.

[quasi hedge]

Yes, but shouldn't this be considered as a update instead of a whole new room?

[pine stratus]

by the way while doing ctfs i noticed that im using tools , that makes me skiddie?

[sick lance]

Sometimes it's easier to retire the old room and insert newer updated content.

[sand trench]

if you understand how the tools work no you're not a skiddie

or know how they work behind the scenes

[dusky dirge]

Feedback done

I wonder what type of awards are provided for best feedbacks

[hardy mica]

i watched mr robots but i still cant hack a website with 3 keys

[pine stratus]

i do know , some tools ofc , but is there a point in this jouney where i should create /script something in order to take advantage of a given vuln ? sorry for my english x)

[hardy mica]

@sick lance is the top 1

[sand trench]

so far shadow has barely ever created a script that can be reused for multiple rooms.... so yeah

[sick lance]

Possibly swag/subsc vouchers.

Maybe @mossy river can answer.

[dusky dirge]

Oh, I see it takes everything to reach that lvl

[hardy mica]

if you fall from stairs he'll take you to hospital too

[dusky dirge]

Where did the feedback text reach?

[sick lance]

Thm's email.

[dusky dirge]

Who reads I mean , and how can we know they read

[pine stratus]

I think i'm more into writing exploits and finding new vuln , i need at least 10 years to be able to do that

😂

[hardy mica]

writing exploit and finding new vuln requires 10 years too

[dusky dirge]

Don't tell thatto me I am 4 days old in this hacking stuff

[sick lance]

They're read, don't worry.

[grim sparrow]

There are no URLs in that message.

[pine stratus]

i still cant write a simple py script to find hidden dir , dont worry

we are learning here

[dusky dirge]

Yeah, me writing side note now

Trying to do new room just posted

[hardy mica]

tbh , if you just check a "python for hacker" course , it's already enought

you don't need to be a developer

[pine stratus]

i already did that

😏

[hardy mica]

so you already have what you need

[pine stratus]

i always have to check , but ya i know at least what is behind the scene in such enum tools

[hardy mica]

creating tools with python (basic one) to help you during hack its not so difficult

studing a programming language is more usefull to understand the different types of code

[pine stratus]

I know !!

Do u like cats ?

[hardy mica]

but i think top ones here know differents one at high level . Like 0day

[hardy mica]

i hate them , im a dog person . But i like cat meme

[sand trench]

well shadow apparently knows enough to be part of the room tester team

[hardy mica]

if you look at my profile picture very well is a famous cat meme image modified with gimp

[sick lance]

Well guess who isn't getting help when the fall down stairs now...

[hardy mica]

pls scrubz, forgive me

[pine stratus]

yes , it requires patience and perseverance to be good at something

[hardy mica]

may i ask a question?

[sand trench]

oh i have had quite a tumble

[pine stratus]

Bad 😡

[hardy mica]

that is not good man . That is god level

[sand trench]

sure but as always shadow reserves the right to not answer

[hardy mica]

why you talk about yourself in 3rd person?

[sand trench]

old habit shadow never stopped doing since kindergarden

[pine stratus]

special

[hardy mica]

well , unique

[sand trench]

exactly why shadow started doing it back then is not known to shadow

[sand trench]

yeah and makes some types of opsec impossible

[pine stratus]

[hardy mica]

btw dogs > cats

[normal fable]

mew?

[hardy mica]

palkia

[sick lance]

You take that back right meow!

[hardy mica]

dog loves you. My dog doesn't need to hack . He can eat computer

[low arrow]

wrong

[hardy mica]

Cats are like : "someone need help in room-help. I know the answer but i don't want to help people"

[normal fable]

Doing cybersec training for work.. I better get 100% 🤣

[hardy mica]

you will man . Not so difficult . I trust you

[buoyant tree]

break the exam, get 101%

[pine stratus]

meow !!!!

[dusky dirge]

Is there any problem to you guys to ask bot level questions

[sick lance]

Bot level?

[dusky dirge]

I mean some questions looks like noob

[hardy mica]

which ones?

[normal fable]

nope. ask. 🙂

[hardy mica]

man sometimes i get stuck in a question who is noob level and after i feel dumb

everyone can ask everything

a part Scrubz , he need to know everything

[sand trench]

well as long as you learn from the mistakes and failures it is fine

FAIL FASTER

[dusky dirge]

Thx for the heads up guys

[hardy mica]

yeah but idk if this happen to you too. Sometimes you get stuck in something you know but you are doing something wrong. When you find the solution you feel dumb

[sand trench]

oh that happens plenty for shadow

though it has been getting rarer

probably because shadow force themselves to help others to learn by helping and teaching

[dusky dirge]

It's good isn't it

[hardy mica]

[sand trench]

well there is this quote from some famous person that states you don't know or understand something until you have had to explain it in such a way someone else understands how it works

[hardy mica]

well , true

Dansu agree with that

[dusky dirge]

After explaining you better understand it so it makes sence

[hardy mica]

Dansu need a cygarette

pretty funny to talk in 3rd person ngl

i feel like Pope

[ripe crater]

hi guys, does anyone have any idea about this?

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/619011/i-removed-my-public-key-from-my-ssh-directory-why-can-i-still-access-host-wi

@sick lance

[sick lance]

The comments do a pretty good job explaining...

What are you unsure about?

[ripe crater]

I am confused about one thing, how does he the ssh client knows where to get public key from, does it extract it from private key?

[sand trench]

tryhackme is recommending hard and insane rooms to shadow now

[sick lance]

When you ssh you can declare the key with the -i switch.

[normal fable]

Because you're that good.

[sick lance]

ssh -i path/to/key *username*@$TARGETIP

[sand trench]

*doubt

[ripe crater]

yes but still my ssh is offering a public key to the remote host to connect to it, the one that is in the authorized_keys file on remote

@sick lance

[sand trench]

for most key types you can derive the public key from the private one

then there is also the ssh agent cache

[sick lance]

^

[normal fable]

Well.. Shadow is better than me..

[ripe crater]

I tried to clear cache and also still connecting, 1 note that some other parameters should be saved so we can extract rsa public key from private key

looks like it saves it for such situations

but the weird thing is when I tried to extract the pub from private it worked using this command
ssh-keygen -y -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa > ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub , but the hash of the offered public key is not the same as the one I have extracted .... and still connecting

@sand trench

[sand trench]

how did you get the hash???

[normal fable]

I kinda want a hot pocket rn.. what is wrong with me???

[sand trench]

go get a full real calzone instead

[normal fable]

That does sound way better...

[buoyant tree]

Why do we fall, so we can learn to pick ourselves up

[dusky dirge]

Is tryhackme have a bug report

[dusky dirge]

Batman

[simple valve]

yes

https://help.tryhackme.com/en/articles/6495946-the-bug-bounty-program

[dusky dirge]

I wanted to ask me that all the thm users done bug bounty? Where can I see past reports

[simple valve]

what mate

[buoyant tree]

yup

[dusky dirge]

Could you read again

[simple valve]

oh nah

they dont share it afaik

[ripe crater]

when you run ssh -v you can see that ssh is offering RSA pub key like this

[dusky dirge]

Roger that

[sand trench]

that could be the private key hash

[molten sky]

some of them are unsolvable now tho ,-,

like cct2019

[sand trench]

wait really???

[molten sky]

well you may be able to find some remnants via things like archive[.]org but the stuff is no longer live

[sand trench]

ah

[molten sky]

(they were using stuff not on entirely thm)

[ripe crater]

not private key hash either ... @sand trench

[sand trench]

there is a difference in text file hash and string hash

[ripe crater]

you mean, I should cat the file then use shasum256 right?

[boreal scarab]

just scrolled past that one, actually

Well it was sent 24 hours before that video went up to him

[mossy river]

AMD 🤢

[molten sky]

lmk when nvidia makes a product that works on linux

[mossy river]

Mine works fine 🤓

[naive violet]

Honestly it's been fine for me over like 8 years

I've only twice broken my graphics. First time I was new to Linux, second time it was a conflict with Steam packages

[mossy river]

AMD has better CPUs for gaming, I'll give them that

[molten sky]

i have like a 15% success rate with nvidia on linux.

[shut hawk]

Can't say I've had a great experience either

[molten sky]

* cue torvalds nvidia fuck you *

[shut hawk]

Lots of driver issues, especially when updating

But that was my old PC, I haven't had a chance to use it on my current

[mossy river]

There's have been a lot of problems with AMD on Windows too, it's not a one-sided argument tbh

[shut hawk]

💯

[molten sky]

eh windows doesn't get my sympathy tho

[mossy river]

Then we can't have a light hearted discussion then can we 😅

[molten sky]

oh no we absolutely can

my side is the right one tho

[mossy river]

Exactly, which is why I no longer want to participate

[naive violet]

As the kids say, "skill issue"

[molten sky]

but actually tho, i've never heard of amd issues on windows. are you referring to cpu or gpu or both?

[crude stump]

Yo

[mossy river]

CPU.

[molten sky]

first i've heard. kinda curious. might have to take a look later today and see what that's about

[crude stump]

If I buy a sticker what should I put it on

I don’t really want to put it on my computer because there’s no case

[molten sky]

I had piles of stickers collected over the years. never put them anywhere cause i either didn't want to put them on certain things or didn't want to toss them

ended up sticker bombing tf out of a few ammo cans

[crude stump]

Yk what I do I’ll prop it up at my desk to look at

[normal fable]

Anything you want or just keep it and don't stick it to anything. 😉

[steel mountain]

$ env x=’() { :;}; echo cloudy’ bash -c "echo sunny"

[crude stump]

Also if I previously got that percent off streak milestone but I lost the streak do I still have that?

[shut hawk]

only 7 more hours to complete my backup 🥳

[steel mountain]

hi can someone pls tell me wht this command does exactly? I have ran it in my terminal in linux and chatgpt but theyre giving two different answers and Idk which one to believe

[steel mountain]

this command

[whole yew]

it's less a problem of nvidia, and more a problem of the distro to include support from their end. Fedora has been really good with nvidia drivers for the past 4 years. My System76 laptop from 2015? Considerably less so.

[shut hawk]

^ I haven't yet tried fedora, so might have a much nicer time with that

[crude stump]

Linux

Chatgpt just gets stuff off the internet

Wouldn’t rely on chatgpt to much personally

[steel mountain]

let me show u what its outputting, its kinda weird

[normal fable]

Don't run commands you don't understand.

[crude stump]

Also what are you doing anyways

[steel mountain]

yeah Ik its part of my uni past paper exam :/ so I have to understand it one way or another 😂

[crude stump]

Ah

Oop

[steel mountain]

revision

[crude stump]

I can’t help with uni stuff

[steel mountain]

😅

[crude stump]

Sorry

[steel mountain]

can someone change this policy here lol, im not cheating i just want help with any other cyber/it related thing. FYI im studying cyber security specifically at uni, so it makes sense why I would ask cyber related things here 😅

and the thing I asked was pretty generic

[mossy river]

Problem is that we can't verify that 😓

[sand trench]

was just about to ping jabba

[steel mountain]

I get that..but I promise u I am doing it from uni, I can dm u the past paper too

[sand trench]

we will point you towards the internet at large like search engines

[crude stump]

I’m sure your professor or classmates will help

[steel mountain]

hmm thats true i guess

[mossy river]

Sorry, If I make an exception for you, I have to make an exception for the next person

[steel mountain]

professor tends to reply slowly tho

[crude stump]

Your professor is always there for you

[steel mountain]

okay I understand

[crude stump]

Well not always but Yk what I mean lol

[steel mountain]

yeah ik 😂

[sand trench]

apparently shadows brother was supposed to try denial of service a windows server in uni today

[crude stump]

Hm why would they be teaching that? To see how bad guys do it and learn maybe 🤔

[sand trench]

probably to learn how todefend and setup rules to avoid it shadow would imagine

did not exactly ask for why

just asked what todays lab was about

[crude stump]

That would make sense

[prisma trout]

hello, new here...whats everyones opinions on the new website "spy(dot)pet"? If you aren't aware yet look up news on it.

[crude stump]

Never heard of it

Sounds scary tho

[mossy river]

Discussions of that website are going to be restricted to the advanced channels for the moment.

[buoyant tree]

what software is that

[prisma trout]

where are they? I'm really curious to know people takes on it

[sand trench]

jayy another question... do you test restore your backups to know that they work too????

[sharp citrus]

thank! much appreciation

[crude stump]

Ooo I never knew about that interesting

[molten sky]

nvidia is notoriously difficult to support tho and they actively make it even more so.. I run fedora as my daily and we encountered constant issues with all of our nvidia cards here as well

[sand trench]

you will get there evenutally aces

[whole yew]

I've had zero issues with the fedora rpmfusion .rpm packages for my 1660

[sand trench]

nvidia for wayland is apparently still kinda messy

[crude stump]

Oh thanks but I forgot to reply to cth lmao

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 1714)

[crude stump]

I will get there

My goal

[shut hawk]

FreeFileSync

[sand trench]

still shadow has barely had any issues with their current gtx 1070 under xorg

;-; shadow lost their 2 tb ssd backup drive

it is somewhere in shadows house but shadow can't seem to find it

[molten sky]

old 1060s through to 30 or 40 series rtx and ampere have all been problematic here even with the rpm fusion drivers 🤷‍♂️
luck of the draw really

[shut hawk]

yep!

[molten sky]

gotta have luck to get nvidia to work without any hiccups

[sand trench]

2060 and up will get better and better open source driver support for nvidia

[molten sky]

( well functioning cards do happen occasionally, it's just occasionally )

[sand trench]

there is apparently near 100% support for that opengl replacement graphics library

[upbeat scarab]

Hi, I just finished Year of the Fox box now (special box to celebrate 100k people on THM few years ago), but I'm quite disturbed about something if someone know by any chance : are the encoded strings just a big rabbit hole ? No way to decode them ? How do you proceed to create such a thing ? I'm curious about this

[sand trench]

@pallid lotus can probably answer this

[hardy mica]

who have gtx 1070

?

[sand trench]

shadow has a nvidia gtx 1070

in their laptop

[hardy mica]

shadow is an hero . I have 1050

but Dansu 'd like to assembly a new pc

[sand trench]

well lots of good info on how to build pc:s nowadays

it is not super hard

generally the hardest part is cable routing

[hardy mica]

hardest parti is pay it

trust me

[sand trench]

ah yeah true

https://se.pcpartpicker.com/list/VcLCn6

this is what shadow is looking at right now for a new desktop pc

[sick lance]

They might have been prizes that were up for grabs when the box first released

[hardy mica]

Im going a Little bit higher , but tbh its ok . I prefer going for a more expensive One and use It for more

[sand trench]

it is an all amd system due better linux support

*exception being no hdmi 2.1 on amd on linux because of hdmi doing bat shit insane stuff with their licensing

[hardy mica]

I prefer amd over Intel too ngl

Im going for 7950x

[sand trench]

yeah the cpu might change

[hardy mica]

Yeah , wjen im home ill share my list

Im spending 5-600€ more

[naive violet]

We were so close to having a foss implementation

So close

[hardy mica]

Even if your case seems cooler than mine

[sand trench]

yeah it meeping sucks

at least displayport is an open standard so that will work flawlessly

[hardy mica]

Are you gonna work with that too ?

[sand trench]

???
yeah gonna use displayport for the monitor shadow has

it will work no problem

[hardy mica]

No i mean , Will you use that for working ?

[sand trench]

well yeah

shadow daily drives linux

might install a windows vm on it if absolutely needed for school stuffs or something

[hardy mica]

School? Aren't you 28?

I Daily drive Windows - vm linux

[sand trench]

university

if shadow gets in

still consider uni school

[hardy mica]

Id like to start university too tbh

Just idk if going for Cybersecurity or computer science

[radiant prairie]

dont go to devry online just an fyi was a waste of time and money

[hardy mica]

But i have to think really well about It .
I already have a degree and im working rn

[sand trench]

well shadow currently has no job

[hardy mica]

You usually go in online university to get title for career , not Knowledge

[sand trench]

and is in a mental spiral of despair

[hardy mica]

Dansu studied law but work as SOC so

[hardy mica]

Welcome to party my brother

[radiant prairie]

@hardy mica this is true

shadow can always get a job doing https://y.yarn.co/1c06b889-b20a-40e0-a35a-6d647831b728_text.gif

[hardy mica]

I work as SOC and im going for OSCP , i don't know what computer science can actually teach me

So

But title Is important

[sand trench]

programming

[hardy mica]

"programming"

[radiant prairie]

they can teach you to turn it off and back on lol

[sand trench]

computer science in nearly ALL instances will help you learn programming

[hardy mica]

You can learn the same stuff in like 3-4 months ngl

[sand trench]

well yeah probably

[hardy mica]

You waste your First year with math

[sand trench]

math is important too

[hardy mica]

Hmm idk

[pearl lagoon]

hey

[sand trench]

ask any architect or engineer and they will tell you how math is important

or a physcist

[pearl lagoon]

Im going to hack another planet

[hardy mica]

But we are neither of that

[radiant prairie]

ask any cashier and they will tell you the same lol

[pearl lagoon]

*fails

[hardy mica]

The best math you see Is hex decoding , and there Is a site Who do It

[sand trench]

the closest you can get to hacking other planets stuffs currently is hacking a satelite

which is not that common

[whole yew]

And IT as a whole. CompSci is literally the foundational academic subject that all the practical aspects are constructed from.

[sand trench]

true

[hardy mica]

Anyway programming in C Will fall me in a deeper depression

[whole yew]

Math is the most important subject you can learn in IT, hands down. If you don't understand how a theorem is constructed, you will be unable to make good arguments for why things should or should not be done in a specific way

[radiant prairie]

get chatgpt to do your homework

[sand trench]

please don't

[whole yew]

Yeah, lets not encourage people to not learn things.

Regurgitation is not learning

[hardy mica]

Hmmm idk , i never loved math tbh

[wraith fjord]

back in my day we used google & wiki

[naive violet]

If you're doing binexp, learn computer organisation

Big help

[wraith fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/up-carl-fredrickson-old-stiff-arthritis-gif-26296416

[sick lance]

Not to mention probably wrong.

[hardy mica]

Math can help for logical process but you can learn It in other ways

[whole yew]

Nope

You cannot

[hardy mica]

Hmm , idk , i hated math from start . Still strong in chess , in logic and working in IT

[sand trench]

somehow shadow learned some harder math stuff from doing programming... like how the sigma symbol works and things

"harder"

[wraith fjord]

Does crying in Descrete Mathematics count?

[hardy mica]

Naturally

[shut hawk]

Graph theory ☹️

[wraith fjord]

lmao then i learnt that way.

[hardy mica]

So you know mathematics

[sand trench]

shadow enjoyed math for their first few years of school

then it got to easy

shadow got bored

then suddenly when shadow would start again they were missing a lot of the more basic stuffs

[shut hawk]

i enjoy most of maths

[sand trench]

meaning it got annoying having to learn a lot of concepts that should have been learned earlier

[wraith fjord]

I do

kinda

[sand trench]

shadow still struggles with big O notation

[hardy mica]

Don't know match and not being able to learn It , its very different

[wraith fjord]

The fact that i havent done any programming in an year scares me

[sand trench]

yeah shadow can learn it and pick up decently quickly

just lacking some of the basics hurt

[hardy mica]

I can program sheet for 6hrs but get bored After 15 Min of maths

[sand trench]

another thingy shadow no understand is how the multiplication table works

i.e shadow has not learnt the mutliplication table yet

can calculate the answer sure

but can't just recite it on the top of their head

[hardy mica]

Sure but you can still hack

[sand trench]

yeah

[rapid merlin]

Shadow what is 3 x 6

[hardy mica]

Just another proof that math Is important but not fundamental

[hardy mica]

He Will create a python script for it

[sand trench]

6 + 6 == 12

• 6 == 18

[rapid merlin]

uhhh yeah and then faster

[radiant prairie]

https://www.effortlessmath.com/blog/what-kind-of-math-is-used-in-computer-programming/ <-- literally says if math isnt your thing pay someone to do it what kind of website is this

[rapid merlin]

shadow what is 8 x 9 then?

[sand trench]

72

[wraith fjord]

For programming it is. ( I am rusty so please correct me)

• Time Complexities
• Graph theories
• Search Algorithms
  Maths is being used in all of these (innit?)

[rapid merlin]

yay

[hardy mica]

93?

[rapid merlin]

Close!

[sand trench]

the nines table is maybe one of the easier ones

[hardy mica]

Its basic math tbh . University math Is way more difficult

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, just do x times ten and then - x

(assuming you know the table of ten)

[hardy mica]

Don't Belive him . He Is trying to confuse you

[sand trench]

0 + 9 == 9
1 + 8 == 9
2 + 7 == 9
3 + 6 == 9
4 + 5 == 9
5 + 4 == 9
6 + 3 == 9
7 + 2 == 9
8 +1 == 9
9 + 0 == 9

[radiant prairie]

use the finger method for 9's hold up your hands and start on the left hand 9 x 5 put down your left thumb whats left 4 on left hand 5 on right lol

[sand trench]

see

[rapid merlin]

AM I Lying

oh caps

[sand trench]

if you split the tens and ones in the nines table and add them together the answer is always nine

[rapid merlin]

ly

lie

what is it

[hardy mica]

You are a math adept. The dark side

[wraith fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/fat-cat-dancing-cat-gif-10291883450660218009

[rapid merlin]

mhhh interesting

[hardy mica]

To conclude , i stopped study math at my 2 year in High school , still able to program

[sand trench]

shadows latest math course was mathimatics 2c on gymnasium level

[hardy mica]

Almost the same . But im able to do graphs and algorithm

Anyway i Just see that Shadow pronous are She/her

Her talking in 3rd person confuse me

[boreal scarab]

When I'm in Germany, I'll take you up on that offer. Hit a bar. But that bar better have Paulaner lol

[near hawk]

I guess that’s what happens when you accept every connection

[blazing granite]

I always have that on Oktober fest 😂

[boreal scarab]

I saw this glass sitting in my cabinet, went to go get some Paulaner, was all out. Quickly got my keys and picked up a 6 pack of Weissbier and 6 pack Salvator Double Bock

[gentle cove]

this means stupid in romanian D:

[boreal scarab]

I haven't had their 0%, or Dunkel

[blazing granite]

Paulaner Festzelt FTW!!

[jagged moon]

Their 0% is only 0% unfiltered i can drink

Not bad

[boreal scarab]

Have you had their Dunkel?

[jagged moon]

Yup. Not a fan

[boreal scarab]

They don't sell it in the US, sadge

TIL there's a Newark in the UK...

[pallid lotus]

Correct. From memory they're auto genned hashes of /dev/urandom. Probably involving a few other encoding stages for good measure.

[blazing granite]

@boreal scarab If Paulaner weren't a beer, it would have been a poem 😉

Anyone used a fax machine in the last 30 days?

[sand trench]

not in the last 30 days

last time was spring 2016

[oak river]

I have never used fax

I imagine it as a phone printer

Phone + printer in one

[uneven hedge]

Exactly what i think about them as well

“Call my printer rq i lost it”

[buoyant tree]

actually yes

weirdly

received one

[sand trench]

to think even the original gameboy had a printer

[uneven hedge]

I have yet to see a dot matrix printer though

[sand trench]

ooh those shadow has used as recently as fall 2017

[naive violet]

They're fun

[uneven hedge]

Old tech was so cool because of the different use cases

Though inefficient, still cool

[clear jackal]

It's interesting to think that the actual name of the Fax machine originated in the 16th century

Facsimile

Meshing of two Latin words

[uneven hedge]

Never knew that

[clear jackal]

Yeah, the definition of the word is " an exact copy"

[uneven hedge]

It does do that most of the time

[clear jackal]

[sand trench]

[blazing granite]

There is nothing new under the sun 😂

well we do not know how the layers of the inner earth works

but kinda whacky to consider that under the sun or not

[oak river]

Attackbox bugged rip

Tried scanning all existing ports with nikto

[sand trench]

nikto????

[oak river]

Yeah nikto

[sand trench]

does nikto really allow you to scan ports???

[oak river]

Yes?

[sand trench]

nmap is the standard tool for that

[oak river]

Yes, but in this case a room is teaching me to use nikto

[split compass]

/me grumbles and salt falls off

[oak river]

You can just literally use nikto -h <IP> -p <port/port range>

[split compass]

Anyone know how to report someone who clearly cheated for a CCNA? 😅

[sand trench]

yeah but that assumes you are scanning for website ports

[oak river]

How did it happen?

Aren't CCNA exams proctored

?

[tropic wolf]

hey quick question i was just using the website and now i got 504 Gateway Time-out is this an error on my side?

[sand trench]

would bet they have a contact email or page somewhere

[oak river]

I cant see the website right now too

[sand trench]

no that is generally a server side error

That a translation the phrase comes from Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) that was written by Shlomo Hamelech (King Solomon) other famous phrases are "eat, drink and be merry", "a time to be born and a time to die", and "vanity of vanities; all is vanity"

[normal fable]

[oak river]

nikto vs nmap?

Nmap seems better for port scans

What's nikto better at?

Checking for vulnerabilities better or?

[mighty igloo]

nikto is a vulnerability scanner

nmap is a port scanner

[oak river]

Ah, guess that I should have done a combination nmap+nikto

But it was a nikto task

[mighty igloo]

nikto is just that tool you run in the background

[naive violet]

Nikto is dead anyway

Nuclei ftw

[oak river]

NUCLEI

What is dat

[mighty igloo]

manual better

[naive violet]

Lead dev of nikto moved over to nuclei

[mighty igloo]

be manual.

[oak river]

what is manual

[mighty igloo]

manual testing, not relying on automated tools

[naive violet]

Low hanging fruit.
Work smarter, not harder.

[molten sky]

better to just post a letter to internal IT and ask what ports they have open

[sand trench]

work lazier not harder

[oak river]

Agreed

Work harder just to become smarter, then use automated tools

[blazing granite]

Plural of nucleus I believe 😂

[mighty igloo]

Usually you would run an automated tool in the background and go deeper if needed manualy, remember no matter template you got some things require a human eye

[naive violet]

Yeah

But we're talking about nikto replacements

Is it better?

wfuzz

are they the same, they seem different

Aha, fair enough

[mighty igloo]

A bit different with filters I think

Which part of hacking should I focus more on in ethical hacking

[loud marlin]

all of them

[blazing granite]

Indeed!! Actually at the begining of the file it says "This document updates RFC 3864 and obsoletes RFCs 2818, 7231, 7232, 7233, 7235, 7538, 7615, 7694, and portions of 7230."

[blazing granite]

if you're new to this, you probably should get the basics hammer down and then go deep into the part you liked the most.

[rapid merlin]

Which basics

[oak river]

Is there a platform for mathematics like tryhackme

[blazing granite]

that's because if they even add 1 character they make a new version 😂

[oak river]

That would be really dope

As I really need to up my mathematics

[blazing granite]

#start-here

sometimes they make new files when there is a new version of the protocol there you see more of a change because they explain the new version and sometimes they compare the old and the new one

[oak river]

Here's a nice chill mix I just found

https://youtu.be/OrWEsbQVO80?si=xX_z9E69jbqdOVLE

Coworker who loves to mention they have their CCNA, but has demonstrated repeatedly having less networking knowledge than I did at age twelve.

And lots of fake CCNA certs floating out there.

There was a huge scandal revealed regarding testing in some countries recently.

[fast inlet]

shouldn't it be obvious in an interview if someone got fake certs or cheated to get those certs

[clear jackal]

It depends

[blazing granite]

that weird because CCNA gives you a solid foundation on networking, he either doesn't have it or he obtain it in dubious ways 😂

[fast inlet]

i struggle to understand how those people get a job to begin with

[clear jackal]

Because they know just enough and are also socially adept

[fast inlet]

i guess the spam interviews until they find the one that doesn't knowledge check much or at all

[fast inlet]

mmm fair enough

[split compass]

Yeah that's kind of what I'm worried about, the dubious ways, this guy got it moved from contract to full-time over other people who I felt were much more deserving based on the merits of their demonstrated abilities.

[clear jackal]

Tbh, I do poorly in interviews but it seems to work out

[blazing granite]

because sometimes people who interview know less than the candidate 😂

[blazing granite]

[normal fable]

Yo just keep at it Rex. It's not easy. You have packet tracer and stuff?

yes, I build a few thing with packet tracer, also I did basic switch config

how do i use my 5% off swag or is that only for the shirts and stuff

Packet tracer is all you should need for CCNA, but you may want to build a pod for fun and future. 🙂

i guess that would make sense lmao because a sticker would be 0.06 cents

if that 5% worked on them

[blazing granite]

I'd love to, but I need time and money 😂

[naive violet]

Merch includes stickers

[crude stump]

wait really?

so that means 0.06 plus tax of course

thats a steal

[hazy pivot]

https://www.mathraining.be

[normal fable]

5% off for me is only half of sales tax. lol

[blazing granite]

https://brilliant.org/ is pretty good too

and it's in english 😂

[oak river]

Thanks @hazy pivot and @blazing granite

my level of french it's not enough to study math 😂

[oak river]

I think I figured something out

Every time I enter the terminal and have to ponder what commands to use from a specific tool

I should make myself a cheatsheet

For each tool

[blazing granite]

A cheatsheet can be useful, but once you start using the terminal more a more you'll remember the commands. It's a matter of habit, the more you use it the more you remember

some commands are similar to DOS so that's also a plus if you know some DOS 🙂

[fast inlet]

in a technical interview thats wild

anyways i was wondering if anyone here works in a SOC or has experience hiring people for a SOC junior position

[blazing granite]

it happens 😂 specially in small companies when on person does a lot of things,

[shut hawk]

Brilliant.com is great
Khan academy too

[blazing granite]

I forgot about Khan. Khan is good too

[oak river]

Yeah, I was thinking that typing the commands is kind of better

But a cheatsheet is useful too

Just use the arrows and edit whatever is necessary

[blazing granite]

there is no wrong way, what ever works for you it's great. At the end of the day is your box and you're the one using it 😉 🙂

[lament mantle]

could you recommend me one. Most of the courses that come up on google are really basic and too simple.

[chrome oxide]

Are you guys disappointed with META?

I have big Hobbies with META in almost all Social Media Platforms they have

And a Album-Legacy for my future spouse and grandchildren

*an Album

They permanently removed my accounts.

Not being a brat, but, I hate it.

how long does it take subscription to take. effect? I purchased a month, closed my browser and signed back in but still cannot access room I'm working on

[crude stump]

hm

worked for me right as i bought it

[gloomy gulch]

awesome

[chrome oxide]

What if let's party

[gloomy gulch]

back to support ticket purgatory I go...

[chrome oxide]

Kiddin'

[oak river]

Yeah, or at least the wordlist paths

[blazing granite]

do you mean /usr/share/wordlists 😂

[chrome oxide]

😂

Wait up, don't think pressured if we can't reply ha.

But, it feels like home here. This Discord Group.

[molten sky]

trying to test something and my test targets are being annoying

anyone got a good site that is known for reliably presenting cloudflare proxies

nvm we good i just used google itself

[white torrent]

hey folks. curious about a line in a job posting I saw...

Extra Points For:
Guaranteed job interview if you can exploit our hiring page.

Has anyone ever followed through on something like this^^? seems like a huge risk to undertake without a terms and conditions or post referenced on the page/website.

It's a mainstream company partnered with crowdstrike but still...

[molten sky]

immediately snapshots with archive[.]org

[shut hawk]

what do they mean by "exploit our hiring page" lol

do they give any other information like scope, guidelines etc?

[white torrent]

right that could mean anything. like if i get root am I the new owner?

[molten sky]

nukes all other applicants, forges job offer

[shut hawk]

seems very odd to me

[blazing granite]

Are you sure it a genuine job offer, from the actual company? It sounds fishy

[buoyant tree]

hires himself as a Consultant that nobody consults with and gives himself a highest salary

[blazing granite]

RH: Are you good at hacking? Candidate: How do you think that I got this interview? 😂

[loud marlin]

GTFO of my office

[sand trench]

gtfobins???

[loud marlin]

indeed

[split compass]

I studied ICND-1 and 2 back in 2008/09, scored 98 on the TestOut, but never went to write the exam. I was poor back then.

[blazing granite]

it happens, I accumulate knowledge along the years, but not certs, sometimes I got nervous with the clock 😂 I opt out for taking a few cert because it stress me out.

[split compass]

The training material is solid. I've only once come across a configuration that had me confused, and I think I found the answer recently, but forget it again.

Some extension to VLAN protocols that I was familiar with.

[white torrent]

the information checks out. the person who messaged me for a phone assessment has the appropriate job title and is on linked in posting about the same position...

I will have to wait for their reply

[stuck bolt]

hi, i have a problem with the MISP Room 😦

[crude stump]

#room-help

babam

[stuck bolt]

thanks

[blazing granite]

#room-help or #site-support if it's a tech issue

[split compass]

Yeah, my biggest concern would be the lack of a terms of engagement. Unless you find a bug program for them on one of the usual suspect sites.

[crude stump]

what's also scary about that is with no scope they could take legal action against you if they wanted to

[hardy mica]

idk how much time passed since i used steghide

[crude stump]

years

[hardy mica]

im doing a room right now that requires it

really fun

[rapid merlin]

Need to pin this

[crude stump]

it actually is lol

[rapid merlin]

Thanks lol

[hardy mica]

if i complete all this

will i be the masterhacker?

[split compass]

If you learn from it, and not just regurgitate the use of provided tooling. You will be well on your way.

Always strive to understand the why.

[uneven hedge]

dont forget to dive into the practice section as well

[hardy mica]

im just joking , im doing practice for OSCP

i work as SOC analyst

[uneven hedge]

I always write down what i learn, ive got a huge notebook almost full of knowledge

[hardy mica]

i still use my cheat sheet

[crude stump]

i started off writing down my notes but there were so much i switched to obsidian

[split compass]

Yeah... But what you do doesn't define how well you do it, plenty of folks do jobs they don't understand.

Case and point my frustration earlier today.

[crude stump]

why were you frustrated

[hardy mica]

getting oscp means you actually "can do it " .
Tbh im doing room to have fun , but i should start proove myself with good ones

[split compass]

People (co-workers) who don't live up to their station or certification.

[hardy mica]

[uneven hedge]

luckily im trying to start off strong, not even in college yet and Im trying to learn what I can to understand the material rather than push it off as a "Things happen so things work" scenario

[crude stump]

same nabeesco

[split compass]

I agree oscp is meaningful, being a soc analyst on its own isn't.

[crude stump]

but i just love cybersecurity

[hardy mica]

completely agree

[uneven hedge]

cybersec my beloved

[crude stump]

its definitly easier to learn if you have a passion in it
