Damn. £65-£75 refurbed. Probably more than I bought it for

you know this just encourages hoarding..

[shut hawk]

this is also cool but even more expensive sadly

[naive violet]

It's all the people in their mid-late 20s getting decent jobs and wanting their childhood back

[glass nest]

So for me, that would be.. NES, SNES and gameboy. Maybe I should build a thing that plays all those games 😄

[deft cloak]

Good Night

[loud marlin]

true. way to much that i would pay for it

[glass nest]

and ralex would pay for anything

https://tenor.com/view/meatloaf-i-wont-do-that-no-gif-14831823

[loud marlin]

not this much for this thing...

[glass nest]

woah!

You can get Mini snes, Nes and Megadrive/Genesis for like £80 and they are legit aswell

My brother got me a SNES one for xmas a few years back

[naive violet]

I swear the mini C64 is as much as just getting a c64

[glass nest]

For real though, NES games are hard to play - Can't imagine what C64 would be like

Some games on SNES hold up though, liike super Mario World

Have you done any modding?

To computers, Cars, games...?

i tried it, but don't have the patience for it

[sick lance]

Snes mini is only good for the unreleased Star Fox 2 game.

[glass nest]

Much respect for people who still add content to years old games like Fallout

Hacking is using a thing for a purpose that it was not originally intended for

For good or for bad

Zactly. I've never got on with the nsfw skins and stuff - Never see the point

Thats commnonly called 'Remapping'

Which usually voids the warranty, and makes the car perform in a way that it wasn't designed for

so yeah, In a way, it's Car Hacking

Hey, What's the best customisation i could have for learning pentesting? Starting from the Kernel, OS, Tiling Window manager, Pentesting Tools and security based system..

[glass nest]

the first three aren't as important as you think.

The pentesting tools will only be as good as your own knowledge and how you use them

[clear jackal]

Just use Kali

It's widely available, used by a bunch of people, and has the support structure someone starting out needs

[balmy breach]

I'm thinking of Arch OS with i3wm, tools from Blackarch repository, linux-hardened kernel or xanmod kernel since it's really good in performance and ram efficiency..

[glass nest]

Well, Arch is it's own beast. You may find that you spend more time fixing errors and getting things to work on an OS level than actually learning pentesting

[loud marlin]

dear god lol

[clear jackal]

Going to assume you're going to ignore us, but you've got the cart before the horse at this point.

[balmy breach]

Have used before but not getting used to xfce or kde..

[loud marlin]

bet the 3mm3 will be shocked 🙂

[balmy breach]

I was just looking out for suggestions

[glass nest]

Oh Moose, Never change 😄

[clear jackal]

I am me

[frank cradle]

why ? it's not that difficult

i think it's quite easy to use

[devout palm]

Dude has a datacenter in his house

[clear jackal]

Also, is this in the positive or the negative lol. I can't tell

[glass nest]

plasma - If you are learning something new, it's probably worth using the 'easy mode' platform, so that the tools will just work so you don't spend time doing unrelated stuff. Then have arch on another drive/VM to play with that seperately

[glass nest]

Yes.

😄

[balmy breach]

Having to use mouse a lot💀 I prefer Window managers.. although it's a bit hard to configure from scratch.. I can git clone someone's dots if i don't want to go through all that process

[clear jackal]

So negative, got it lol

I am blunt, yes.

[buoyant tree]

Anybody got suggestions for working with insanely big databases

[glass nest]

Nahhh. You're Moose. one of the OG folk that helped inspire me to return

[clear jackal]

In what context?

[glass nest]

Plasma - The idea would be to seperate the OS development stuff with the pentesting stuff, then combine them later when you understand both

[frank cradle]

did you use gnome then ? you can give it a try

[balmy breach]

Well, another reason is that I can use terminal file managers..

[buoyant tree]

Trying to somewhat recreate a local version of goodreads

[frank cradle]

and yes, it needs time to get used to with something

i am confused a bit

no need to make stuff harder than it already is, Plasma. Personally, I don't like Arch (Sorry Emma)

why would i give e instead of p or the opposite

If you're just looking for something to categorize your PDF/MOBI/ePub files, there are a bunch of projects on Awesome-Selfhosted

[balmy breach]

I appreciate it man.. better not spend time configuring stuff than just start breaking the wall into the actual work..

[clear jackal]

And tbh, I'm not sure what the output you're showing is trying to say

You have no errors

[devout palm]

If you really want to do it, you can set up a VM and play with it as much as you want. And you would learn new things as well without breaking your system.

[balmy breach]

You use debian probably? What is it that you don't like about Arch?

[clear jackal]

The community isn't always as friendly to people just starting out and they have a very specific way of doing things, to put it nicely.

[glass nest]

Just kali, but back in the day, I cut my teeth on Solaris Sun, Red hat and Fedora. As for Arch - No need, as I don't really want to learn about the machinations of an OS

I still have a copy of Backtrack3 somewhere 😄

[devout palm]

You ancient

[glass nest]

Hahaha

[buoyant tree]

yeah I know about that

but just trying to make somethin like goodreads for a coding project

[balmy breach]

Yeah Thinking of running malwares and stuff for fun, It doesn't affect my main system right? RIGHT?💀😂

[glass nest]

Some can.

[devout palm]

Be careful with malwares.

[glass nest]

What if it shuts off your CPU fan?

[devout palm]

Unless you know what you are doing, don't mess with malwares.

I want to see real person's thoughts and writing style instead of emotionless crap phrases

[glass nest]

Haha. so My work laptop had a windows update, and installed this 'MS Copilot' AI thing. Which I suspect is just a rebranded Cortana. First thing I asked 'How to I uninstall copilot'. Was actually helpful, told me which registry entries to delete

[devout palm]

Lmao

Like using Edge to install Chrome

[simple kernel]

edge is too slow

[balmy breach]

The thing is - I never properly used debian systems when I was 16 just installing Kali and doing some OSINT, learning Networking but as I turned 18, I got into Arch and it has been my default so far that i don't know how any other thing works and now, I'm 19.. thinking of switching to Gentoo, just to see what's different..

I don't, but I can tell you real life isn't a video game and people aren't ranked that way.

I had a stroke reading that

[clear jackal]

The military ranking structure is really only specific to those types of organizations.

You sometimes have a military-esque ranking structure in public service jobs, but private orgs will typically follow your standard corporate ladder

[simple kernel]

you know, cybersecurity, while it's not directly related to military, but it's very much like it

cyber is police for digital world

Again, not really? It's going to depend on the organization you're working for.

Why does Google and YouTube have different things on what modems and routers do? Like the difference between them.

[clear jackal]

What do you mean? YouTube/Google/Alphabet don't control the definitions, they just present the content.

[humble forum]

while using burpsuite

what's alt for foxyproxy on chrome

[clear jackal]

Alt as in alternative?

[steel aspen]

The websites have different things on what they do

[molten sky]

not 100% sure if this is what you mean, but a modem is strictly for classic internet connections where you were using a phone line

POTS lines rather than digital, as well

literally just modulating sound (hence, modem)

[clear jackal]

You're going to need to give an example

[molten sky]

router is routing packets and such within your network

[steel aspen]

One website says modem does this and another says it does something else

[clear jackal]

Again, YouTube and Google are just content aggregators

[steel aspen]

As far as I get it modem gives the direct connection and router directs it to the device. And data over the network goes from router to modem to Internet to modem to router on other side

[molten sky]

direct connection IF you are using a phone line

and POTS lines don't even exist in some places anymore

[clear jackal]

You don't necessarily need a modem

[steel aspen]

Well yeah

[molten sky]

but yeah, router to modem [over phone line to] modem to router

[steel aspen]

The router does all main stuff

I thought the modem gave the household the Internet connection from the isp too

[clear jackal]

If you're getting your internet through cable, sure

[molten sky]

if they are using some form of analog internet

i.e. dial up

[humble forum]

yeah

[steel aspen]

Oh so modems are practically useless these days?

With fibre n stuff

[clear jackal]

Have you conducted a query utilizing your favorite search engine? First bunch of results seems to give you options.

[molten sky]

that would use an ONT

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ONT for fiber connections

[clear jackal]

No, because not everyone has FTTH

[molten sky]

^

[steel aspen]

Oh true

[molten sky]

cable for example is still analogue, in which case, they very well may use a modem

the main point is analogue vs digital

[steel aspen]

Yeah now I get it

So the fibre connections has made it more digital unlike with if we say dialup

[molten sky]

It's been digital for a while in some cases even before fiber -- but yes, fiber is digital

on/off

[steel aspen]

Obviously wire still there but the router does most of the networking stuff if not all

[molten sky]

rather than my noise is this loud and this frequency

[steel aspen]

Yeah between dialup and fibre, I forgot what it was

[clear jackal]

Fiber is a weird case, it can technically be both iirc

But today it's digital

[molten sky]

technically, but i can't imagine that being reliable

(like you say, today)

would be interesting to see analogue fiber lol

[steel aspen]

So modems are completely dependent on the type of Internet connection to if it gets used or not

[molten sky]

yeah it has to be something analog

[steel aspen]

Actually now that you've explained it, I get that YouTube video a lot better

[molten sky]

the name is literally just because it modulates/demodulates the signal, not something that happens with digital (which is just fast on/off)

[clear jackal]

Digital is 1's and 0's, Analog is waves

[molten sky]

tbc, sometimes you have combo modem/router units. those suck but they exist, even though a modem and a router do different things by themselves

[molten sky]

Si

whenever someone mentions square wave it reminds me of crappy UPSs

[steel aspen]

Translates the digital stuff to analog for it to "understand"

Or vice versa obviously depending what way it's going

[molten sky]

pretty much

[clear jackal]

At the eli5 level, that works

[steel aspen]

So routers connect to isp via a "server"? For lack of a better word. Without the modem. I got fiber cable but our modem still in use by the looks.

[molten sky]

if you have fiber than you more than likely have an ONT rather than a modem

your router connects to your modem or ONT and your modem or ONT communicates with whatever tf your ISP has on the other end, which is honestly probably a random server tbh

but there's nothing special about it being a "server" -- all a "server" is is someone's computer whose main job is to serve you data or do a specific job (server is a very vague term)

weird gif but aight

[steel aspen]

Yeah I couldn't think of another word so I just used that one lol

[naive violet]

Lots of routers

[steel aspen]

Oh yeah I think we do. I'm gonna look at YouTube for it

[molten sky]

technically still a router tbh, yea

although those routers are probably significantly more powerful than my desktop

[steel aspen]

Wonder if there's a big course or playlist for it in there.

[naive violet]

Nah it's asics that make the difference

[molten sky]

man i always forget about asics

those fancy lil things

type faster other james!

[finite basalt]

Today's gonna be a shit day lads 🫡🫡

[molten sky]

why

[finite basalt]

Went to bed late and then woke up to fire alarm false alarm

On an hour's sleep at most and omw to work

[floral geyser]

At least you're employed aha

[molten sky]

^ what he said

[floral geyser]

rip my contract

[molten sky]

heh

[finite basalt]

Well till September and then I'm either going part time or am finding another part time job 😂

[floral geyser]

Dislike current job?

[finite basalt]

Nah I'm on placement year so next year I'm off back to uni to do my dis

[floral geyser]

Ohh, like an intern sort of thing?

[finite basalt]

Exactly, they usually keep people on part time so I'm hopeful

[floral geyser]

Interesting, that's cool

What are you studying?

[finite basalt]

Cyber security and digital forensics 🙂

Ngl the past three years have flown

[floral geyser]

That's awesome, I suppose you're on your last year to graduate

[finite basalt]

Yessir, looking forward to my dis, got a few ideas but still thinking about what I'll do

[floral geyser]

Good luck!

[finite basalt]

Thanks mate 😄

[sick lance]

You haven't started?

[drowsy estuary]

Good morning, Snake

[deft cloak]

Dattebayo

[tough ravine]

Morning..dude

[deft cloak]

Done Google Dorking THM room. 🙂 It's awesome to gain this knowledge. ^^
https://tryhackme.com/r/room/googledorking

[drowsy estuary]

Oh, dorking just means using the search engine directives?

I somehow never knew it was called that

[twilit apex]

lol same

[deft cloak]

yeah.. uncle esqy and many more told that learn it.. it's a good way to do passive recon. 😅

finally learned it.. watched the google dorking cheatsheet also... searched few things also.. 😅

Nothing illegal.. 😛

[drowsy estuary]

It's very useful for everyday stuff!

[deft cloak]

^^ I will remember this..

Any more advice you want to give me? ^^

[drowsy estuary]

hmmm. Always put stuff back in the same spot. That way you'll know where it is

[molten sky]

no

put stuff in different spots

[drowsy estuary]

why????

[molten sky]

exercise your memory and don't be a dumb

[drowsy estuary]

sheesh.

[deft cloak]

what stuff? 😅

[drowsy estuary]

My memory is only good for a particular kind of stuff

[molten sky]

also this

[deft cloak]

I finally did Google Dorking, that day you told that to do passive recon I need to learn some Google Dorking..

Thank you @molten sky

[twin ridge]

[molten sky]

I don't remember that conversation (ironic, having just said work your memory and don't be a dumb) but that's awesome

osint is huge

you can dig up a lot without ever raising any alarm bells (or touching at all)

don't worry! that second part never has to go away!

[deft cloak]

What to learn next ?

[molten sky]

nah it's "i just spent 7 hours trying to diagnose a bug because there was a rouge Space at the end of line 327" happening way too frequently

[drowsy estuary]

That's what I thought he meant too

[molten sky]

also the more you learn about it the more you realize how little you actually know

[molten sky]

time to hack nasa

eventually you get comfortable with not knowing things

google is 90% of my job

[deft cloak]

Good idea, maybe then I will found out where my actual planet is.. 😅

[molten sky]

slightly exagerated obv, but the job is more about how well you navigate and process information rather than being an encyclopedia of random bullshit

I just overslept so much😅

[molten sky]

get back to bed @chilly veldt

[chilly veldt]

Woke up now where I had to be at the office, and I usually wake up 2 hours before that

[deft cloak]

Is it good idea to learn XXE at this point? Or should I wait and complete something else before learning XXE?

[molten sky]

TIL XXE is a thing that exists

looks like it's literally just xss via xml?

[deft cloak]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/xxe

I have not yet started XSS

[molten sky]

idk if that's actually all it is but my god can we stop with the buzzwords for like 30 minutes

xss with xml is a known thing but i've never heard it called xxe

[deft cloak]

lol

OK

I will skip this room for now. will do xss first then come back here later 😅

[molten sky]

nah no need to skip

probably a good room

i'm also assuming things

normal js type xss is still pretty different

i'm also tired and have been drinking, as a disclaimer

i mean

ya know what, first, are you talking mostly front end design or actual dev (including back end)

[deft cloak]

Then I will not skip this room... I will just do it and later I will try to relate this room when I will start XSS

[graceful thistle]

front end design or actual dev?

lmao.

[deft cloak]

😜

[graceful thistle]

front end 'design' is UX

[molten sky]

look

words are hard

[graceful thistle]

no you look

front end devs =/= design

[deft cloak]

https://tenor.com/view/weird-creeping-looking-window-quagmire-gif-17384876

[chilly veldt]

What is the meaning of this line?
The data stored and transported using XML can be changed at any point in time without affecting the data presentation.

Hey guys

nmap syn scans are faster than the normal connect scan right?

[frank cradle]

yeah, i think so

[drowsy estuary]

Mhm, since they don't need to wait for the ack packet to come back

[polar wraith]

okok thanks was just making sure

[steel aspen]

Would it be weird to make a cron job file to have discord automatically update? Each time I open my VM and use discord it needs an update; it's very annoying having to update it manually each time.

[polar wraith]

why not just use the browser version

[sick lance]

Because it's horrible.

I'm solving csr encryption problems and also tried to enable SSL/TLS connection on my local enviroment. I managed to do it but I've been struggling with a lot of troubles. I didn't know root certificates made by CA which is not public organization are not trusted by default

Depends how much you learn and how lucky you can get

[pale verge]

👀

[jagged moon]

Thought about you couple of days ago

Saw my first mosquito this year

"oh, mosquitoes are back"

"oh, mosquitoes from discord would probably say they never left, too"

[spice adder]

Depends what you knew prior and how persistent you are with targets.

It’s easy to look for low hanging fruit and automate everything. But everyone does that. Finding good bugs don’t come easy on popular platforms, persistence and planning your attack will always win

A valuable skill is giving yourself a goal. ATO? Or more simple standalone bugs like injections (XSS, Iframe, etc). Set yourself a time limit and make a plan on the target.

What data is stored on the target? what is sensitive to them? How do they manage this information? Any areas that interacts with other users, directly or indirectly.

Map your target, know your enemy.

You’ll likely have more success on VDP’s. My first triaged report was on one, the bugs found were much lower hanging than what you’d usually expect to find on BBP’s. It’s a good confidence boost to take you into BBP’s

[steel aspen]

Would there be any reason why sudp apt update/upgrade is timing out?

[sick lance]

Bad mirror?

[steel aspen]

Whatever this means

I have internet connection

[left trellis]

Can you ping to google.com?

[subtle flare]

You have a typo in your command it should be upgrade not ugrade

[steel aspen]

Oops but it gets stuck on the update one anyway, doesn't have a chance to do update

upgrade**

Because it's not allowing me to update first

yeah i can ping google

[left trellis]

did you use sudo command?

[steel aspen]

yep

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

connection timed out on both commands

[left trellis]

paste all errors to chatGPT

[rapid merlin]

waddap hackersss

so uh i just want to ask why starlabs and tuxedo laptops are so expensive is it because the firmware ??

[mossy river]

We don't suggest ChatGPT as a solution here 😄

[worn thorn]

running to chatgpt is not a good first stop

jabba beat me to it

[rapid merlin]

xd

[left trellis]

Are there major causes which make impossible sudo apt update and upgrade?

[worn thorn]

some vendors charge a premium for their products without any good reason.

[rapid merlin]

damn i thought something interesting because those laptops are made for linux they said

[steel aspen]

I'm going to guess the servers are down

Because there's nothing else on there that should be preventing it

I think it's one of those days

[worn thorn]

tuxedo uses their own distro on it. So that factors into the cost.

[steel aspen]

First, my car battery decides to die. It's a new one; I literally bought it on Thursday I think it was. Now my Kali machine won't let me update and upgrade so I can install something I need for THM

[rapid merlin]

wdym by distro ?? should i better google it ??

[rapid merlin]

damn tuff day

[worn thorn]

It's like a flavor of linux but specifically crafted to work best for their hardware.

[left trellis]

use something virtual machine

[rapid merlin]

OHHH damnnnn thats why its expensive damn damn damn big damn

[steel aspen]

I'm hoping auto electricians aren't too expensive around here, I'm not allowed to do anything to my car really since it's still on finance

[steel aspen]

I'm on a VM right now

[rapid merlin]

damn i might get ban

[left trellis]

i guess to create a new virtual machine is the easiest

[worn thorn]

mechanics do be expensive

[steel aspen]

This is my new one lol, my old one died on me. I'm not going through that again.

[rapid merlin]

damn os inside os xd

[steel aspen]

There's for sure a fix

my host is windows 10

[rapid merlin]

😔

[rapid merlin]

congrats BlackOut ❤️

[worn thorn]

always take snapshots of your vm. It will save you time.

[left trellis]

there should be no problem normally...

[subtle flare]

To me it looks like apt get has already been updated since it says 50 packages can be upgraded... I would just try sudo apt upgrade and check if that works

[steel aspen]

upgrade did the exact same tihng

thing

[left trellis]

Is something conflicting between host OS and virtual machines?

[steel aspen]

Seems like Kali is down

[simple kernel]

guys is http.kali.org down for you?

i am trying to connect and download some packages

[steel aspen]

Aha, I'm not the only one

[simple kernel]

no response

timed out

[steel aspen]

Yeah must be down, I'm getting the same

[simple kernel]

its been like that for around 45 mintues

the website tho says

it's up

[steel aspen]

Am i allowed to say, wouldn't it be ironic if it was a DDoS?

Yeah it's not, I've just tried connecting to website and it's down

[simple kernel]

yeah me as well

[left trellis]

if so we can do nothing

[simple kernel]

that's why i came to confirm

the whole kali linux brain

dies when the website dies

[tawny magnet]

[steel aspen]

status.kali.org btw

[subtle flare]

switch to a different distro and download the tools you need until Kali is up against

[simple kernel]

right

[left trellis]

which distro is proper?

[steel aspen]

How long would it take to get back up and running?

[simple kernel]

i just have a problem tho

[left trellis]

we are not sure

[rapid merlin]

GNU+Linux Debian

[steel aspen]

I need to stop being lazy and move all my stuff to Ubuntu

[simple kernel]

anyone knows why i can't connect to any rdp machine? sorry i know this should be in help room but

no one is answerin

ahh

i mean windows machines

using rdp

[steel aspen]

Kali is down lol, won't let u use much i'm guessing

As a network

[simple kernel]

i don't think that should be related

is it?

[steel aspen]

Guess it depends

u trying to use xfreerdp or a similar program?

[simple kernel]

yeah'

[subtle flare]

I mean you can use any distro you like, could be Ubuntu or Debian based. I use pop os for a daily driver and also have Kali

[steel aspen]

Try use the AttackBox with

THM

[simple kernel]

yes

yes

that's what i was going to do

but

still

is the reason

[sick lance]

#room-help please 🙂

[simple kernel]

because of the website down?

[steel aspen]

Can you not wall message

[simple kernel]

I asked :( no one answered

hahahaha

[steel aspen]

PAtience dude

[sick lance]

Then please be patient, everyone is voluntary.

[simple kernel]

i am grinding :D

[subtle flare]

If you like the syntax highlighting that Kali has then just install zsh and add the syntax highlighting package

[simple kernel]

i know i know

i mean asking for help tho isn't a disaster here, no?

[left trellis]

i think no

[steel aspen]

Use the proper room

[sick lance]

This is general chat, not room help.

[steel aspen]

TBH i completely forgot about tech-support channel

Wait is it still there?

[sick lance]

Site support now.

[rapid merlin]

#site-support

🙂

[sick lance]

Members used it for general queries, and not TryHackMe support.

[steel aspen]

Site supportis just THM thoright?

how about general help with stuff

ACME IT Support lol

[rapid merlin]

[left trellis]

the problem is depending on OS, tryhackme support cannot be helpful i guess

[steel aspen]

That is strictly a THM room thing right? lol

[rapid merlin]

Kinda!

[steel aspen]

or is it a real thing hahaha

I've always just assumed it was a form of meme

[rapid merlin]

@rapid merlin ask Engineer

[steel aspen]

Oh very real, there's an engineer.

[left trellis]

Seems I misunderstood the problem

[steel aspen]

Engineers confirm the existence of the subject matter

[rapid merlin]

🫡

[subtle flare]

I think the questions about Kali and os in general is ok to post since it is a general question... But help with RDP would go to room help

[rapid merlin]

I do manage the Acme website😂 /j

[steel aspen]

Acme is to do with THM only tho right?

[rapid merlin]

The Acme it support thing yes

[subtle flare]

I think that's a specific room

[steel aspen]

It's just a site/server as a hosting thing for port 80 eooms

rooms

[rapid merlin]

A website used in some rooms

[subtle flare]

Ahhh

[steel aspen]

mainly only port 80 rooms im guessing

[rapid merlin]

Sir your website has been hacked by Pakistani Hackers, you should install AnyDesk on your Docker Container so we can Free your PC from Malware.

[steel aspen]

I did one of the CTFs and it was there

[rapid merlin]

it's also in walkthroughs.

[steel aspen]

Your Host PC from malware 😛 via the docker container

[steel aspen]

True

Hopefully Kali is running tmrw lol

I really should use Ubuntu n have Kali as a backup instead of vice versa

[rapid merlin]

I'm on vacation so the next few days I have to use the attackbox

[steel aspen]

I got an ubuntu vm waiting

[rapid merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/why-lord-why-curtis-payne-house-of-payne-good-will-nothing-s9e6-gif-25470443

[steel aspen]

AttackBox ain't bad lol

[left trellis]

ubuntu is supporting tools kali is supporting?

[steel aspen]

Just remember to get the notes and whatever else from it

[rapid merlin]

True

But I love my vm

[steel aspen]

Yeah I get that lol

[steel aspen]

Theyre both debian based

[rapid merlin]

Yes, that was a good thing.

[steel aspen]

debian based tured into debiased and debianed

debiased lmao

Great typing of course

[subtle flare]

Which specific tool from Kali do u need? All of em?? You should be able to get any tool that Kali has installed on Ubuntu,, maybe not from apt but google will help..

[left trellis]

now no problem i just wanted to know

[steel aspen]

Can definitely get most apt packges on ubuntu too, kali is just more convenient having them preinstalled

well all not most

[left trellis]

I see

that is why everyone uses kali

[steel aspen]

Trap, would it be stupid for me to make a cron job to update discord on a schedule instead of having to do it manually lol

[willow pumice]

guys is anyone here available to help me

[steel aspen]

I think I've only had to install a few wordlists and a couple tools for kali

[rapid merlin]

Depends😛

[left trellis]

it is worth doing it?

[steel aspen]

#room-help 😄

It sounds stupid but it's annoying

[subtle flare]

I just use the browser version 🤣

[steel aspen]

Fair enough lol

Desktop versiona updates every day i swear

Just good having discord on the main dash for programs lol

[blazing granite]

if they send it to you, and doesn't cost you anything you save yourself the trouble

[blazing granite]

what I hate about discord (linux) is that they don't have a repo, you're force to go to their website to download the f.. deb, install it by hand it's a pain 😂

[heady nova]

Eyyy

[jagged moon]

Arch got you covered

Is packaged

[clear jackal]

Seems odd

[blazing granite]

ubuntu doesn't have a repo for discord and discord doesn't have one I can add, I think there is a snap version, but I'd rather avoid snap if I can

[jagged moon]

That's true for a whole lotta software on ubuntu though

Just write a smol shell script to fetch latest discord deb and dpkg it. Due to frequency of updates and how often discord demands you on latest, it will pay off quick

[blazing granite]

I like ubuntu, but I'm not a fan of snap, I guess I'll be in ubuntu as long as they don't push the snap too bad, the moment they do that I'm out

[jagged moon]

Try flatpacks. I like those

Every time i see something being available on snap only in ubuntu, i go flatpack it

But i am rarely in ubuntu these days

[blazing granite]

I tried those but the soft I used in snap it's the original from the company, the flatpacks are shitty versions of the original

[jagged moon]

Bet it's in AUR XD

[deft cloak]

In nmap scanning, (right now I am doing nmap room on THM)
It says about SYN Scan (-sS) that it have a con which states that: They require sudo permissions[1] in order to work correctly in Linux. This is because SYN scans require the ability to create raw packets (as opposed to the full TCP handshake), which is a privilege only the root user has by default.

So how exactly is it con? Scanning port as a root user is bad practice? I don't understand it fully. Can anyone help me?

[jagged moon]

You don't always have root privilege

That's why con

[mossy river]

Scanning ports as root user with sudo isn't bad practice, it's recommended as nmap cannot perform certain actions without it

[rapid merlin]

SOCK_RAW https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNIX_Network_Programming

also the book in Wayne's World 2 😄

[blazing granite]

the flatpack version is missing some features, but if in the future ubuntu push the snap too much I'll go back to Fedora probably

[jagged moon]

I love fedora very much

[deft cloak]

oh I see, I was thinking it as I am performing from my laptop so I have root access. Ahh I see, I have to think as a company employee also. 😅

OK Boss. ^^ I now understand it fully.. Thank you 😄

[rapid merlin]

quite often ping is setuid root for the SOCK_RAW

[jagged moon]

Yup. Can be testing environment where you are not sudo and have no sock raw. You may have gained a foothold as user level and scanning internal network with static nmap from compromised target and have no sock raw. Etc

[blazing granite]

I used it for a bit at very beginning of the project, and then around 30 I think, I installed the 40 in a VM to see the progress, it looks good

[deft cloak]

^^ thanks for the book name..

I will look into it once my room is completed.

[jagged moon]

I think almost in every major distro it has sock raw caps

Or suid bit

[deft cloak]

I will note it down in my notes... 😅 xD

[jagged moon]

It's quite nice these days, ye

[solemn radish]

So - Am I connected or disconnected?

[jagged moon]

Kinda have opposite feelings towards ubuntu. Every time i work with it i like it less as years pass

[blazing granite]

besides Slackaware, I've been a Debian boy 😂 I moved to ubuntu around 3 or 4 years ago when I bought a Dell G3 some hard didn't agree with Debian even with the non-free activated the performance wasn't good so I tried mint and it took ages to boot I mean 3 minutes easy, so I move to ubuntu and no issues so far.

[jagged moon]

Mint replaced ubuntu for me as a "quick distro that just works and i can let my siblings manage" thing

But for my own daily driving i moved from deb to arch based stuff

[mossy river]

From just this screenshot, I would say you are disconnected

[blazing granite]

I wasn't sold on mint, I choose cinnamon version because I used that wm in Debian, but I go error every time kind of annoying 😂

[jagged moon]

Might be laptop specific issue as those things and laptops usually go

[solemn radish]

Mint has no ARM versions

[simple valve]

did someone say Arch Linux

[jagged moon]

Shoosh

[blazing granite]

indeed, that why all the humping 😂 I'm OK in ubuntu hardware/performance wise, but I'm keeping an eye on the propagation of the distro and the future of snap just in case

[simple valve]

https://tenor.com/view/arch-linux-arch-linux-gif-25380879

[jagged moon]

Whatever happens to ubuntu, debian world is vast and not going anywhere

So it's gonna be fine

[solemn radish]

regen'd on EU-Regular-1 - Time to do some googling :p

[blazing granite]

Debian just lost it with the 3 versions behind thing 😂 I jumped that ship for that too. Of course it's going to be fine, the important thing about Linux it that you have options, just need time to find the one that fits you 🙂

[simple valve]

Is there specific need for a Linux distro as your daily driver or you just more comfy with it @jagged moon ?

[jagged moon]

I mean i have win and mac laptops at work

[chilly veldt]

It's more fun!

[jagged moon]

And linux at home

[chilly veldt]

I have the opposite, windows and Linux for work and windows at home

[jagged moon]

No need-need for it but i am comfy with it as a home OS, and i am exposed to all major eco systems that way daily

[simple valve]

Do you also run VMs on top of those?

[jagged moon]

Yup, but mostly for hecking and dev

[simple valve]

Definitely, wish I can pivot to that type of setup but rn its not in my horizon I guess

[blazing granite]

even on Linux I run VMs with other distros

[normal fable]

ls

lol.. wrong window. 🤣

Can anyone explain these lines for me? nmap -sN, -sF, -sX
Many firewalls are configured to drop incoming TCP packets to blocked ports which have the SYN flag set (thus blocking new connection initiation requests). By sending requests which do not contain the SYN flag, we effectively bypass this kind of firewall.

[sinful radish]

Guys is there any way I can search a file that contains certain words? .. is it some thing like .. find | grep ??

[rapid merlin]

[chilly veldt]

I am sewing my own clothes

[deft cloak]

[deft cloak]

[normal fable]

Heck yeah! Excellent skill to have.

[blazing granite]

Great, I thought it was only cosplay. That's why pass my expertise, Respect 🙂

[sinful radish]

Hey.. what if I'm not sure what file contains the word?

[chilly veldt]

Right now it's a cosplay, previously made general clothing too

[chilly veldt]

The jacket is bought

[rapid merlin]

[shrewd cairn]

i want to learn hacking so i could hack my girlfriend's phone to see if she is being faithful to me

[sick lance]

No no no 😦

[mossy river]

Here is an easier solution: Ask her 🙂

[sick lance]

Not helpful.

[deft cloak]

well a relationship without trust is just time pass only. 😅

[sick lance]

Is there a reason you've reached the way you have when I said it wasn't helpful?

[rapid merlin]

an excellent opportunity to communicate feelings and use assertive communication skills 😉

if you can pull it off using that facial expression, I'd recommend joining an acting group 😄

[deft cloak]

no no.. literally I want to say that to him this thing.. 🙂

[sick lance]

I meant reacted.

[deft cloak]

No trust, No Respect, then there is no Love. ^^

[sick lance]

With the emoji

[mossy river]

Making comments like calling them creepy can escalate the situation.
Our moderators are trained to deescalate and deal with scenarios like this, best to leave it to them 😄

[deft cloak]

sure... 😅

I get 3 months off at the end of the year, trying to decide if I should invest in pushing TryHackMe as far as I can go with the time, or doing a coding project

[chilly veldt]

What I figured out

[sand trench]

a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

[umbral kiln]

nerd

[wooden totem]

alr my phone number was probably leaked, I keep getting scam texts from bots

[sand trench]

is your number in the national no call list???

[wooden totem]

I dont even know what that is, I barely use my phone

[sand trench]

some countries have lists of numbers that are marked as do not call unless they have called you first or similar situations

[wooden totem]

isnt that for telemarkets and ads

[sand trench]

yes but it also generally blocks out spam/scam from bots in some places

[sick lance]

I love how my phone automatically blocks them.

[near hawk]

I always answer

[dawn estuary]

Hi!

I can't make the tryhackme rooms screen dark?

White is ruining my vision lol

[near hawk]

There is no dark mode yet

[mossy river]

Turn the light on in your room, will reduce eye strain 😎

[buoyant tree]

How does it even do that

[sand trench]

install dark reader for dark mode on most websites...... it works for most browsers too... or turn on more lights in your room
