general

[blazing granite]

mostly at the end of 80s, it was some good in the 90s, but 80s music FTW!!!

[sick lance]

...I have 5

I like screens

[mossy river]

3 for discord, one for fortnite one for youtube

[sick lance]

Youtube/Spotify.

I like to switch.

[mossy river]

Overrated? No.
If you spend most of your time in front of a computer, it saves a lot of time when you have multiple screens.

I have my main monitor for whatever I am doing and then my 2nd monitor is either Discord, YouTube or something to assist with my main monitor.
I.e. I have my Notion document on my main monitor and then the University assignment brief on my left monitor

[loud marlin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0bi7OfaKMY when music was great

[mossy river]

That is why I use VMs 😊

[empty vale]

3 Monitors is ideal. Tons of space when using only my computer, and I can put my work computer on the right monitor, leaving two for my computer.

[sick lance]

Left screen [portrait mode] for discord.

Main screen for what I'm doing,

1 or 2 screens for different vm (if I'm doing malware, or df)

1 screen for music/movie

[wild rose]

At work I have 4 monitors and a TV for just alerts.

wfh I only have 3.

[buoyant tree]

with all this talk, thinking about repurposing one of my phones for a display

[sand trench]

YAWN random ping at 04:14 in the morning?? good that shadow has do not disturb mode on their phone on a these hours

[sand trench]

that is not headphones then... that is a headset

[sick lance]

I don't use my mic often.

Probably will be soon, depending on how often vc is used for stuff

[rapid merlin]

[empty vale]

you inspired me. Going to have to buy some monitors. I might just put a tv on my wall to watch some stuff and not take up space on my desktop

[sick lance]

I have a laptop with two monitors side by side.

And I have a 56" (or something) split in two mounted on my wall.

[buoyant tree]

they are headphones, WH-1000XM5

[lavish rune]

Hey, where can I start learning?

[sick lance]

[sick lance]

All of them useful too. 🙂

[buoyant tree]

I got the earbuds

[wild rose]

I have baby ears so earbuds fall out.

[lavish rune]

For some reason I couldnt see the start here channel before even tho i followed all the categories

[sick lance]

You sometimes need to right click > show all channels

Ever since Discord added the on boarding screen

[buoyant tree]

the earbuds are quite big

[wild rose]

baby ears. I just don't like the feel of them in my ears.

[buoyant tree]

sweet potato

[sick lance]

With chicken and sweetcorn

[buoyant tree]

[buoyant tree]

eh sweetcorn doesn't go that well with sweet potato

[sick lance]

Yeah it does.

I make chicken pizza with red pepper and sweetcorn.

I'll butterfly cut the chicken and put some tomato and herb sauce, some chilli flakes, then add cheese on and serve with a sweet baked potato

Or I'll cut the sweet potato into wedges.

[lavish rune]

im so lost idk where to go 🥲 do i start learning from the website?

what can help me gradually improve

[sick lance]

Yeah this server partners the website. 🙂

[wild rose]

yes follow the paths if you're lost

[sick lance]

There is over 800 rooms on TryHackMe, you'll be learning for months.

62% of the website is also free.

And new content is released atleast twice a week

[lavish rune]

What paths?

[sick lance]

Sometimes more.

[lavish rune]

oh wow

it would be a really bad people move to do this kinda stuffs

[boreal scarab]

Speaking of Swedish Addresses...... y'all really got confusing addresses. Close to how confusing India is
cough @gray sonnet cough

[sand trench]

huh

confusing how???

it is literally town name streetname streetnumber

unless you are counting the postal code

[hardy orchid]

guys wtf slovakia is getting cyberattacked in a way

[sand trench]

which is a backup to get to the correct town and area

[shell nova]

The American is used to it being the other way round

[sand trench]

and even the usa has postal codes

[boreal scarab]

(This is a business, not a residence)

[sand trench]

nylandsvaägen == streetname
15 == streetnumber
352 50 == postal code
växjö == city/town
sweden == country

[sharp tendon]

UN and NATO, thats a real possibility

[normal fable]

Doesn't seem weird to me at all.

Addresses are addresses.

[boreal scarab]

Yah, ours is:

Street number
Street name
Town

Zipcode

Then there's India.......

[sand trench]

yeah so not weird just other order of stuffs

postal code and zipcode is basically equal

wonders if anyone is gonna go postal because shadow calls it postal code

[worn thorn]

seems normal to me

[shell nova]

It's called a postal code everywhere outside the us

[sick lance]

Post code for the UK.

ubuntu is a bit whacky due to how cannonical is pushing snaps

because for a chain restaurant, the cheesecake factory is actually pretty good

is it safe to say for using socat specialized shells that it should use - file:'/dev/tty' - or should I make a special tty file?

for example:
socat file:'/dev/tty',raw,echo=0 TCP-L:1234

[normal fable]

Haggis is illegal in the US due to having sheep lung as an ingredient.

[brisk tree]

Loool

[sand trench]

don't think haggis is illegal in sweden

just there is no pre made haggis sold in shops near shadow

not looked into it though so maybe

[sand trench]

should be fine for most uses

[blazing granite]

I had a Scottish gf, so I ended up liking it, but it's an acquired taste 🙂

[normal fable]

I still want to try haggis..

[brisk tree]

ahaha i had a bad batch once and hated it for so long. i found some in waitrose here

[empty vale]

@sand trench Thanks. All the examples just show - file:'tty' and it took me a bit to figure out I had to use the 'tty' device under /dev. I guess I can create the connection under any /dev/tty#. I've never used 'screen' or a lot of tty. Just made another ssh connection. Need to start learning it

[lone plover]

A question for who know how the rolling codes of a Car, a garrage, etc..

Before you can help me with my question, I think you should read this before, this is a guy in Reddit talk about it:

The question is:

Garage Door Openers, Key Fobs, etc.

I know, (or think I read), that they send a unique code each time, and upon successful authentication, the garage door, for example, will give the next code to the remote at that point, so it won’t be the same as the next time, but what stops someone from “listening” to the garage door when it sends back the next sequence to just know what the next code will do? How does it communicate openly over radio back & forth and yet somehow still stop anyone from “listening” in and getting the information to force open it the next time?

Answers:

Not quite. you're correct in that the key will send out a code and any car that recognizes that code will unlock or lock itself. However they don't communicate much beyond that. The real story is that both devices have, for a very simplified explanation, an very very large list of codes. Both devices have this list. When the key transmits a message it will take the top code on that list, transmit it, and move on the the next item in the list.
The car will hear the message, compare it to the next hundred or so items in his list, and if there is a match it unlocks the door and moves the list down to the keycode it heard to stay in sync with the key.
Anyone listening in will just hear that one code going trough the air, and once that code is gone, it's gone. You cannot reuse it. You however can't know the next code on the list, or the next one after that, or after that, and there are too many codes to guess possible, so you're not any closer to opening the lock than you were before.
Imagine they are just counting. Key says "4", and car says "HEY! My list is on 4 too! That must be my key!"
Then the next time the key says "5", and the car says "Yes, I have code 5, locked!".

But if you come along and say "54" the car responds "Nope, not on the list". If you use the code "4" the car promptly goes "No, I already used that code". Then the key comes along and says "7", and the car once again goes "oh, I know that code, it is a bit down my list. The key must have accidentally called out when I couldn't hear. No biggie, 7 it is! Open!"

[blazing granite]

I wouldn't if I've ever go to Pakistan I'd try something local, not tiramisu. I tried tiramisu in Treviso (where was invented) you can't get better than that 🙂 What about Peach Cobbler instead of tiramisu

[lone plover]

I simplified it a bit, it isn't really a list, just a random number generator. Computers can't do true random on their own, but they can do "almost" random. Set two computers with the same random generator and the same seed off at the same time and they will spit out the same numbers in the same order. This is exploited in things like car keys and those one time bank pads. If both devices can reliably access a shared secret you can use that shared secret to synchronize.
If you set both the key and the car to the same seed they will generate the same numbers in the same order. The numbers will appear more then once, but will probably not appear one after the other. imagine the key and the car rolling a 50 million sided die. Maybe you'll get "42" back to back, but the odds of that are one in 50 million, so I'd not bank too much money on that bet.
So, the key generates this random number, and broadcasts it. The car will hear the broadcast, and generate a number of its own. Since they are running on the same seed they will generate the same number. to prevent you from accidentally breaking the sequence by clicking the key more then once the car will generate say, 100 numbers, and accept any of those as a valid key. It is a possibility that if you press your keys often enough the car won't recognize it anymore, you've gone too far down the sequence.

[shut hawk]

@lone plover It's interesting, but what exactly is your question? Or was it more a prompt for discussion?

[sand trench]

it is a question about how car key fobs work

[blazing granite]

on the second line I quit 😂

[sand trench]

and how they handle the "random" code to be sent between fob and car

shadow read it all

[boreal scarab]

Smells ..... illegal

[sand trench]

well depends on how you use the knowledge

[lone plover]

"""Okay so basically it’s like this
Garage List | Remote List
135246 | 135246
642531 | 642531
934672 | 934672
Etc. etc.
Your remote sends the code 135246 and the garage door sees that and accepts it, and thus, opens the door.
If another remote tries the same code later, it won’t accept it.
The next time the remote is pressed, it’ll send 642531. If your remote sends a 934672, it’ll also accept it because it’s not too far down the list.
Now obviously, these codes are much longer than six digits, and the garage door opener will accept codes pretty far down the list to compensate for accidental presses, but overall, is this an accurate, simplified version of how they work?"""

so my question is, lets suppose i send the '642531' code, if i capture the first code which is 135246 , can i send it and been confirmed by the car, Note that the code you sent is before the code that was actually used

[whole yew]

What?

[sand trench]

to be honest shadow has not looked into exactly how these kinda fobs work so can't actually answer

[boreal scarab]

I smell a bot. No way in hell someone can type all that up in that short amount of time

[whole yew]

So what's the question, final chance to actually ask a question

[lone plover]

Sorry, I think I have no other way to explain the question more clearly and for you to understand in a better way

[blazing granite]

copy and paste work wonders 😂

[lone plover]

I said that I sent this so that you would understand the topic more and so that my question would be clearer and that it would be possible to answer it accurately

[jagged moon]

That's not how randomness in fobs work

There is no list to go down and be too far in

So here's your answer

[molten sky]

i mean, some are like that

[sand trench]

go go go fluff

[jagged moon]

If you have a 90s car, maybe

[lone plover]

Sorry, I did not understand the answer. Can you explain more please?

[sand trench]

some cars have static codes.... but those are unsecure nowadays

It was considerably less understandable with the giant walls of text. Just ask the question as simply as possible, and if clarification is needed, whoever is interested will ask for that.

[jagged moon]

True. The top models on hijack lists

Well, I think everything can be discovered by searching, there is no need to have server discord like this one to help, right?
I think that this depends on the depth of the research that you want to do. If a person really wants to know something through research, I think that he is 100% able to achieve it without asking anyone.
Perhaps research on a topic will lead to another research on another topic to understand the topic you want to understand, but in the end you will find what you are looking for, regardless of what sources you use for research.

So security is a huge topic, and many of us have very niche knowledge - we do not mind sharing that, but what you're asking is well documented in other places. This is a great place to ask questions, but those questions should also respect our time as well. Asking the server to answer really basic things can be seen as disrespectful and can come across as lazy.

The system you're describing is a "rolling code" btw
There's a few systems, rolling code has some flaws but there's decent defenses

[lone plover]

Who can say that what you asked can be classified as “basic things” or not? And How can he classify this? Maybe what you see as basic, I find to be difficult for me, and perhaps what you see as difficult, someone else sees as basic. This depends on the amount of knowledge you have about the matter. People have degrees of knowledge. I assure you that if you ask any question on your mind now to someone with more experience than you, he can tell you, “Go and learn. There is no need to ask basics questions here.” In addition, I I haven't found an answer to my question yet, so I also think that there is no standard for measuring "documented" term

[molten solar]

I have a TR1920X w/ less than 128GB of ram running KVM under .. ubuntu 22? it boots a vfio vm which gives me my windows11 experience.

I had to turn on svx and virtualization and all those other options to get vfio working when i built it in 2019 , so im pretty sure i did that part right.

Now, I am trying to run things like virtualbox or "windows sandbox" under windows ..and nested virtualization isn't working or something because it errors out a LOT.

The hardware hacker question.
Is there a COMPATIBLE cpu option I can use which will allow for nested virtualization on the AMD TR1920X in windows x64 under kvm ? 😛

Alternately, i think this mobo (X399-E) will let me upgrade up to .. TR 2970? 2990?

will one of THOSE cpu's work better than the 1920

[jagged moon]

If your hardware supports nested virtualization, yes

[heady nova]

That hardware gotta have some big fans

[jagged moon]

cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested

If ibtel

[blazing granite]

not by default you have to change a few setting in KVM

[jagged moon]

kvm_amd if amd

Then you modprobe, and can use it

[heady nova]

What makes running a VM on KVM different from running a KVM on KVM? :/

[jagged moon]

Doesn't matter much how you virtualize. What matters is you can or not

[blazing granite]

you have to enable from /etc/modprobe.d/kvm.conf too I think is disable by default

[jagged moon]

Hardware-wise

[boreal scarab]

@jagged moon

[whole yew]

Depends on hardware autodetection, IIRC

even if it's enabled by default, that's just the hardware passthrough check, still have to enable a different option in kvm config with modprobe

from a psychologist

basically as a check that shadow understands what their treatment entails

[blazing granite]

a recent one, great

How come when I'm doodling while on the phone, I always draw cubes?

[sand trench]

draw spheres instead

[blazing granite]

121 it's not gifted, just above average

[sand trench]

100-105 is just average

though it could be inaccruate as shadows swedish sayings knowledge and grasping is not to great

it could also be inaccurate due to how much time shadow dedicated to get the rotate cube for patterns part where shadow got to focused on getting an exact match when it would have only required a close enough match

still being average inteligence does not hurt shadow to much

their experiences and knowledge will be unique enough anyways

[glass nest]

Eh.. I never put much stock in IQ. Yeah, someone might be a bit more logical which can come across as smart, But everyone is smart in their own way. If my car breaks down at the side of the road, I'd MUCH rather have an 'average IQ' mechanic with me than some /r/iamverysmart introvert, who thinks that pretending to understand quantum physics makes them superior

Any windows users successful in keeping edge off of their system post windows update?

it seems with every update, i need to yank it again

[blazing granite]

compare to ie, edge is pretty decent, the irony is that in order have a pretty decent browser microsoft had to use somebody else code 😂

[molten solar]

Compared to IE, i agree

but if i have to use IE (Here's looking at you flash based frigging firewall/router config cli apps)

i use IE, if i want to browse a web, i use something else.

[boreal scarab]

Is Edge still tied to the kernal?

[molten solar]

I do not think its tied to the kernel.

[boreal scarab]

I remember I was interning with someone and he said IE was tied with the kernal

[molten solar]

it's tied to a bajillion personal preferences, but windows continues to keep on trucking wtihout edge

[blazing granite]

no idea, the one is tied is microsoft that wants everybody update to win11 at all cost 😂

[molten solar]

What ever happened to "Windows 10 will be the last windows... rolling relases from ehre out "

[boreal scarab]

@whole yew calling on you, you're more knowledgeable than I am when it comes to this

[molten solar]

do you count news and advertisements pane to be "kernel" ?

[whole yew]

sort of. It's not the kernel per se, in previoius versions of IE it was the file explorer, which did have kernel hooks. Nowadays, I think IE is a reskin built around chromiium with added MS stuff.

[blazing granite]

IE I belive yes, you couldn't get rid off, it was tied to the file browser too, and with a lot of work you get rid off window went to shit I did it once 😂

[molten solar]

but IE is not edge ..

And too much crap i use still requires some obscene old version of IE .. i keep a windows 98 or windows 7 vm for this sort of thing

[boreal scarab]

Thank you

I wanted to show "your" address for an example, bur didn't wanna dox you..... even though, even if they do have it, fucking impossible to find

[molten sky]

are y'all still on the "past the big rock" official addresses?

[gray sonnet]

My address used to be available on my LinkedIn until a few years ago...

But yes, impossible

[molten sky]

oh hey the fluff clan website is updated

Nah, it definitely didn't

I actually have to work on it

[fading perch]

guys, I want to get Linux certification.
what is the best Linux certification?

[gray sonnet]

compTIA Linux+

[blazing granite]

who is paying?

[fading perch]

$370

[fading perch]

I myself

[burnt stirrup]

is this the LPIC1 equivalent?

[gray sonnet]

Yup

They're expensive

[blazing granite]

go for the comptia then

[fading perch]

is there any free one?

[sand trench]

no certifcation by design can not really be free

someone somewhere has to pay for it

[hardy mica]

im kinda sceptic on Comptia tbh

[burnt stirrup]

sry to bump in like that. One of you might know this.

Just to be sure. Is it possible that my german non Business ISP blocks anything that could prevent a connection initiated from outside? mostly for Self hosted Services. Connection Requests? Ports? Odd Flags?
Do ISPs ever block Incoming ICMP?

[fading perch]

I thought there was something like freecodecamp

[hardy mica]

@sand trench yooo cheese shadow . wu?

[burnt stirrup]

might be worth to clarify what you want the cert for

[vocal gale]

TCM has some pretty good courses and certs

[blazing granite]

Linux institute, and The Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) are also good but expensive hence my question 🙂

[gray sonnet]

They're not industry standard certs

[normal fable]

omg you have to use a work email addy to register for nessus essentials. 😦

[sand trench]

yeah on the isp level dropping all port scans is common

also known as stealth mode

[fading perch]

what's the difference?

[blazing granite]

Did they change it? I remember I sign up a while ago and use a regular email

[normal fable]

Yep. Now on registration page it says 'Please use a work email address'

[blazing granite]

shut

[normal fable]

Time to host one of my 10,000 domains and set up an email address. 🤣

[boreal scarab]

[blazing granite]

too many people were signing up

[normal fable]

It's all Heath's fault. Sold too much access to the Practical Ethical Hacking course that tells you to sign up for Nessus. lol

Hoping he has a good sense of humor.. seems like the type to. lol

I'll just watch the video on it and not use it for now..

[sand trench]

well there is things like that but those are just certificates of completion and not cerrtifications

the difference becomes very relevant at the point you start applying for jobs

[hot cairn]

Just self host email

its fun

its not painful at all

[sand trench]

gonna call emmers a lier on that

[boreal scarab]

@hot cairn

[sand trench]

[hot cairn]

Alot of ISP Default routers block ICMP

rarely the ISP itself does, but the router they give you usually does

[boreal scarab]

FUCK. ISP. ROUTERS!

[fading perch]

means TryHackMe what category does it fall into?

[sand trench]

yeah been here a long while

not on this discord but discord in general

[sand trench]

tryhackme certs is certificates of completion and thereby does not hold much value for job hunting

[long bronze]

what is this server for?

[normal fable]

Learning

[sand trench]

learning to do ethical hacking

[long bronze]

[sand trench]

like analysing log files and protecting your companies networks from bad people

[long bronze]

am a developer too

[fading perch]

Does the certification have no value?

[long bronze]

but weak in security

[sand trench]

this discord is also heavily linked into https://tryhackme.com/

[long bronze]

🥐

[sand trench]

a real certification like sec+ or net+ holds a lot of value
certificates of completion hold very little value in comparison

[sand trench]

well you are in the right place that is for sure

*to learn

[long bronze]

from who?

[fading perch]

so what do people pay for when the certificate has low value

[sand trench]

gon on the website shadow linked.. then make an account... then start doing rooms and you will learn decently quickly... if you get stuck ask people here for help

[long bronze]

oh, thanks for your opinion

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 1735)

[sand trench]

the study material and rigerious testing of knowledge for certifications like net+ and sec+ is what makes them valuable and helpful and nice to get jobs with

i.e the standard and regious testing of knowledge is the keypart

a tryhackme cert is worse because you could be using answer dumps to get them

[fading perch]

[long bronze]

bento?

sounds interesting

[whole yew]

answer dump isn't the problem, it's that a THM certificate is a certificate of completion, not a certification of knowledge from an accredited source

[sand trench]

well

it was the easiest way to explain why a certificate of completion is worth less

as the other times shadow tried did not help above

[hardy mica]

yee i got my eJPT

[normal fable]

gratz

[sand trench]

yee shadow got this cert called a medical document that explain that they have some health issues

that they can show to get small benefits in some places

unable to reproduce and no idea what he ran ,-,

[gray sonnet]

Does it work on your machine though?

[molten sky]

i would dismiss it as that normally but i encountered a similar message the other day while working on a yet-to-be-merged pr and i'm wondering now if it wasn't actually caused by what i was doing in that yet to be merged one

[naive dock]

I was not expecting IPoAC to mean what it does...

[molten sky]

it's got an actual RFC # as well

[naive dock]

I saw that too lol

[molten sky]

and it has a few revisions of said rfc later on

it's a very serious protocol
