[sweet torrent]

lol
so does anybody know why is it not working
is it because of the battery? as i remember this battery sucked when i bought it online and it ran out of voltage so fast

[cosmic pendant]

oh boy

So it seems like ubunutu 24.04 isn't as stable as 22.04 (yea, I know it's two years older), but it sucks that the new build is pretty bad, or so it seems

[buoyant tree]

what the issues

[cosmic pendant]

install .debs and package's is a pain

and... i deleted my k8s cluster. and it's totally busted ...... I mean, it was working, so it's my fault

But, it's just so janky

[buoyant tree]

hmm using it also but haven't faced any issues yet

[cosmic pendant]

😦 idk how to fix it lol. it's totally busted, i've done everything I can think of regarding kubelets lol. I think I need better directions updated for 24.04, but sooon.... right? lol

[boreal scarab]

@hot cairn For once, I didn't break it. Toaster broke your beloved K8s.

[cosmic pendant]

How you doing Beries?

[boreal scarab]

Eh, pretty good, chillaxing right now

[wide marten]

I am top 100 in terms of server rep now. They send me a playbutton or something I heard?

[wide marten]

Nothing? 😕

[cosmic pendant]

How long you been doing THM

[wide marten]

The first time I think 2 years ago for AoC but then nothing for a long time. Started again a month ago. Why?

[cosmic pendant]

Just curious! Top 100 is good eh

[wide marten]

@ this one

i replied to the wrong thing damnit

[wide marten]

If you tell GPT to act like a bash shell and then enter rm -rf /bin it won't do it. "Safety reasons"

[molten sky]

"bash doesn't talk back"

[wide marten]

Turns out it does

[molten sky]

oh no, that's what i would tell it, lol

[wide marten]

I understand your perspective, but even as a simulated bash environment, I must prioritize responsible and safe interactions. Deleting critical system files like "/etc/passwd" could have severe consequences, leading to system instability and potential data loss. If you have any other inquiries or tasks you'd like assistance with, please let me know, and I'll do my best to help within safe boundaries.

[molten sky]

curious what if you told it that you're actually removing the french language pack

[wide marten]

Even telling it that it's just a VM I want to crash, it won't let me. Gotta admit decent safety filters even if questionable in this case.

[reef radish]

Hello, can someone help me with the question: In what layers of the OSI model do firewalls operate? of the session basics of the network intention of everything but I don't know if they are translation or language problems

[rapid merlin]

Firewalls can operate at multiple layers of the OSI

specifically layer 3 4 5 7

||by ChatGPT||

[sharp sail]

today will be work from home day

i kinda scared my boss off with a picture of me with stitches that i got from a fall

and sent him that asking: can i work the day from home? 👉 👈 🥺

[reef radish]

Yes, I understand that they work in several layers of the OSI model, but I tried the answer layer 3 4 5 7 and it does not accept the answer. I don't know what to do. If anyone has the answer, I would appreciate it.😔

[molten sky]

chatgpt is incorrect by lack of certain details

[rapid merlin]

wdym by certain details?

[molten sky]

what is this for anyways @reef radish

[molten sky]

it's incorrect by omission, is what I meant, but I forgot the word omission
some modern firewalls can operate at those higher levels but in the most basic interpretation of the word, with traditional firewalls, that is not the case

[rapid merlin]

ohhh

[molten sky]

(also a lot more intensive to do so)

[reef radish]

The truth is that I am studying a little about the topic of networks in tryhackme and I am currently in the session called network fundamentals and in this session they ask me this question to complete the level but I have not been able to answer it

[molten sky]

Didn't expect an actual proper answer and wasn't sure if it was homework or something

[reef radish]

The exact question is in which layers of the OSI model do firewalls operate?😔

[molten sky]

basic firewalls normally only operate at layers 3 and 4. iptables for instance is a very basic firewall built into the kernel. All it does (high level explanation) is route/accept/block based on ip address and port number (some exceptions, like marking, but that's more involved)

for the most part, modern application aware firewalls are called next-generation firewalls (ngfw) --- very buzzwordy but that's the general difference

Morning

[gray sonnet]

what the hell is this?

Morning Bella 👋

[molten sky]

lol

[chilly veldt]

I need to find some new in ear headphones

For when I go driving

[molten sky]

..why?

cars have speakers ya know

[chilly veldt]

Motorcycle

[molten sky]

but you said driving 🤨

[whole yew]

shokz

[molten sky]

do y'all really use driving for bikes over there

[chilly veldt]

Yup

[molten sky]

weird

[chilly veldt]

Well the word translates to both driving and riding

[molten sky]

also, cardo + actual ear plugs

[chilly veldt]

Haven't heard of them before

[molten sky]

ear plugs? pretty useful actually. they help you not go deaf. <link>

well that or sena but i prefer cardo by a lot

if you ride with people just get whatever they get and it'll be better together

[chilly veldt]

Well shokz earphones

I know what ear plugs is

[molten sky]

that part was sarcasm, but linked cardo

[chilly veldt]

If I am getting Cardo I need to get a new helmet

[molten sky]

why

[chilly veldt]

There's no space for speakers in this one

[molten sky]

how would there not be

[chilly veldt]

Cause it's not built to have added speakers

[molten sky]

unless your head is against the closed cell foam itself, in which case, you're probably dead on impact

[molten sky]

very few helmets are

it's not like you're stuffing whole ass subs in there

[buoyant tree]

@molten sky u good at geoguesser?

[molten sky]

lmao didn't' expect that Q today

never bothered to try

[buoyant tree]

Beefing up OSINT skills and thought you may have some advise

[chilly veldt]

I know, still, this one is not supposed to have speakers in which is why I won't add some

[molten sky]

that'd be like "my visor isn't meant to have tear offs, so i'm not going to add sunglasses"

https://tenor.com/view/computer-nerd-typing-meme-gif-23328185

^ bella

[chilly veldt]

Sure, but I am not comfortable with adding speakers into some helmet I ain't sure can handle it and risk getting a bad injury cause I mess something up and add something that reduces the security of it

[molten sky]

but in ear headphones are okay? that's where the confusion is

cause if speakers would be an issue, then those headphones are gonna get crushed into your head just the same

[chilly veldt]

Speakers change the structure of the helmet, headphones does not

[molten sky]

wait what

how is structue changing

[chilly veldt]

You add more weight, press foam a bit more together or remove some to make space

[molten sky]

weight is very very very minimal (barely noticeable, actually), and no structural foam is pressed let alone removed

if you have to remove any closed cell, your helmet is too tight anyways

[chilly veldt]

Well my helmet my decision

[molten sky]

well yeah

just working through the thought process of speakers touching ears = good, speakers next to ears = bad

but if you originally thought that you had to cut out pieces of the helmet, that thought process makes more sense

[chilly veldt]

Well not cut, but possibly removing added padding

[molten sky]

don't think i've ever even seen that be needed, from bottom barrel helmets to top of the line

the lil speakers just go in the ear hole that already exists 🤷‍♂️

what helmet do you have anyways, don't think that ever came up

[boreal scarab]

[timid prism]

what age do u ride scooter

[molten sky]

#spellinghard

[timid prism]

is it 16 or 18

[gray sonnet]

14

[timid prism]

nah on roads

[gray sonnet]

14

[timid prism]

when i wont get ticket

damn

i should learn soon

[gray sonnet]

I started riding a 350 CC bike at 16

[chilly veldt]

Lmao, yeah, it's still a cheaper one, but it's okay, used it my whole classes, same with my free gloves

[gray sonnet]

Royal Enfield Bullet 😎

[timid prism]

i used to drive a luna in grandmas poach area

[chilly veldt]

But I need some summer gloves

[timid prism]

nah

[gray sonnet]

you should learn how to ride a bike

[timid prism]

nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[gray sonnet]

not a scooter

[timid prism]

later

[gray sonnet]

Easy, 1 down, 5 up

[timid prism]

its not about me

its about others

[gray sonnet]

don't wanna end up like that pune guy

[timid prism]

nah others dont drive properly

[molten sky]

my first one was the same price range i think 🤷‍♂️

[timid prism]

scooters literally mean u get space u sweze inn

[molten sky]

why are the others suddenly safer now that you have a scooter instead

[chilly veldt]

I used to have an expensive one with built in Bluetooth when I had moped

[gray sonnet]

they're wayy easier to control

cause of their small form factor

[molten sky]

i hate helmet shopping ngl
takes forever to find a good comfy fit

[molten sky]

he said bc of other ppl tho and specifically not himself

[timid prism]

no, ur safer if u dont ride a scooter

if ur new

[molten sky]

wait then how would you learn

[gray sonnet]

exactly

[timid prism]

bcause riding a scooter is a challenge in itself if u dont know how the roads work

[gray sonnet]

learn how to ride a bike

[molten sky]

like ever

[gray sonnet]

a heavy one

[timid prism]

i dont have political connections i wont be able to get out if i do somtn 🥲 ill wait till 20

[gray sonnet]

[molten sky]

i am so confused

[gray sonnet]

There was an incident in a city in India

rich kid, had a porche, he was only 17

got drunk, went super fast on a busy road

hit a couple on a motorcycle, killing both on impact

[timid prism]

and cuz he had politicia connections he was set free by wrtting a essay

[gray sonnet]

he got away with community service (10 days) and a 300 word essay....

cause his dad had a lot of political connections

[timid prism]

• election time so

[gray sonnet]

that too

that's the joke he was referring to lol

[molten sky]

okay but what does that have to do with being 20 and with not riding before you learn but not learning cause youndidnt learn

[timid prism]

its literally a real life drama series

[timid prism]

i dont want to have a case on me before i start my life

[molten sky]

okay so 20 isn’t 20 for a specific legal reason then?

[chilly veldt]

Yeeeee, especially when I use XL helmets

[gray sonnet]

it's 18, kid's just scared

[timid prism]

i dont know the legal age, so thats why
its not like i wont be able to get away with minor things, but if smtn happens, the already current situation (the porsche kid) the things are already heated up

[gray sonnet]

IT'S 18

[timid prism]

IM NOT 8

18

[gray sonnet]

oh

yes

makes sense

why wait till 20 then...?

[molten sky]

^ seems that was just a guess cause he didnt know 18

[timid prism]

just a number, depends on where i go

if i stay here after exams i have cycle

[gray sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/hopeless-disappointed-ryan-reynolds-facepalm-embarrassed-gif-15360423

[molten sky]

i guess i follow

wouldn’t wanna wait just for one incident, but obv until legal

[timid prism]

if its above 18 its not a big deal

but if its under 18 media will create a huge mess

cuz of that rich kid news

[molten sky]

easy just dont crash /s

[gray sonnet]

^

[timid prism]

someone else will into me heh

[gray sonnet]

you follow the rules, I follow the rules, most people don't, especially here in India

[molten sky]

it’s a family tradition here yet i still ride lol

part of life

[gray sonnet]

I got 1) hit by a truck cause the mfer wouldn't see before he turned, 2) car T-boned me when I was riding an RE bullet

that bike is 192 KGs...all on my body at once

[chilly veldt]

I got my license at 20

[timid prism]

if u follow rules ur dead

u gotta ride as the roads go

[gray sonnet]

true in India

you do that anywhere else, you're getting lots of traffic tickets

you'll go broke in a week

[molten sky]

nah thats here too

[chilly veldt]

Same here

Drive like the worst thing can happen at any time

[molten sky]

never got pulled over riding, even if being a lil silly

[timid prism]

like ther some rule of keep some distance between cars?

[chilly veldt]

Literally told when taking classes

[timid prism]

outside india

[chilly veldt]

2-3 seconds minimum

[gray sonnet]

I agree with this lol

[timid prism]

seconds?

[sick lance]

Depending on the weather.

[timid prism]

whats that unit of measurement now

[gray sonnet]

seconds to stop

[chilly veldt]

That's why I said minimum, so on good conditions it's 2 seconds

[molten sky]

“one car length” means very different things at 20kph than 200kph

[sick lance]

You don't drive to the speed limit, you drove the condition or the road.

[timid prism]

lmao people drive anything

[sick lance]

So many factors dictate.

2 seconds isn't long.

[timid prism]

oh dont even expect 20 cm lng gap

[molten sky]

“one anything length” means very different things at 20kph than 200kph

fixed

[timid prism]

here unless its a big vehicle ur gonna be stuck with 8 scooters around u and cars just touching

[gray sonnet]

true

[timid prism]

and obviosuly i have cycle i can just use footpath

[chilly veldt]

We are told minimum 2 seconds here, even by the cops, all classes and even the exam is told ~2 seconds minimum

[timid prism]

fuck the traffic

[molten sky]

but yeah no, play conditions
i’ll weave and split as well if conditions make sense, not legal but safer then some drivers behind you

[chilly veldt]

Ye

[gray sonnet]

yup

[chilly veldt]

We aren't allowed to filter

[timid prism]

filter???

[molten sky]

do it anyways tho lmao

gotta

[chilly veldt]

Lane split

[molten sky]

eh

[timid prism]

uh

[molten sky]

between slow or stopped traffic

like at a light

[timid prism]

u wouldnt find any small space on roads here

[chilly veldt]

We are only allowed on stopped traffic

[timid prism]

anywhere on roads

[gray sonnet]

PTSD is a B, when driving, I am never able to drive infront of busses or trucks lol

[timid prism]

i stop let them pass

aint drivnig with papapapapa horn behind me

[molten sky]

not allowed at all here
(also, filtering = stopped splitting = highway)

[gray sonnet]

yeah lol, we switch lanes every few seconds

[molten sky]

wont catch me not filtering tho

fuck everything about being in the back

[timid prism]

theres ntg as filtering here

or if it is

its useless

[molten sky]

not tryna get pancaked by some asshole on their phone

[gray sonnet]

trudat

[chilly veldt]

We are only allowed on stopped highway traffic if it's hot, then it's "acceptable" but still illegal

[timid prism]

the real thing is a fortuner

thats usually a politician car or some rowdy driver

they drive like its their dads road

[chilly veldt]

Can't even drive 2 bikes in same lane, that's illegal too

[molten sky]

wya again? forget. here in NJ it’s statutorily grey but leaning towards sharing lands and reckless

[timid prism]

i wonder how will they ever drive in india

[chilly veldt]

Denmark

[timid prism]

if u follow ur rules in here ull prolly never get out of a signal

[molten sky]

rules?

nah those get people killed here

[timid prism]

u gotta sweeze ur vehicle inside wherever space

[chilly veldt]

I am sitting in motorcycle gear on the train right now lmao

[timid prism]

never be like ill let that guuy pass, cuz then ull never be able to pass

[molten sky]

quick tangent
do i have my leftover burritos or my leftover (cajun-ish) chicken+rice

[timid prism]

1

[gray sonnet]

burritos

[chilly veldt]

How about a bit of both?

[timid prism]

i asked my organic sir to give me a students contact for bitsat relation topics, he gave me the institutes toppers number 😭 . the fact that he is confident

[gray sonnet]

anywho, I'm gonna go to bed ya'll have fun

[timid prism]

its 11

[molten sky]

broke my cardio once and took my helmet with me when i drove back to uni to fix it, got there and had to go straight to class cause bad timing so i had my helmet with me for the hour

somehow ended up in a convo with the Instr abt the drive in, and he asked why i had my helmet if i didnt ride today—
i have never been more at a loss for words cause it was just like well shit didnt realize how weird this sounds

[gray sonnet]

I've been up all night lol

[timid prism]

bad idea

[gray sonnet]

it definitely was

[timid prism]

i cant stay up post 12

[gray sonnet]

but hey, I passed the cert

[chilly veldt]

Lmao, I have my driving pants in my bag, sitting in my Kevlar infused shoes and my protective jacket, and my helmet on the table

[molten sky]

i never did buy proper riding pants

always jeans

[chilly veldt]

I've seen what bad pants can do to you and I hate jeans

[molten sky]

oh yeah no you’ll get messed tf up

accepted risk ig 🤷‍♂️

[chilly veldt]

Yeahhhhhh, when you have seen it physically it's a nope rope for me

[molten sky]

we miss the part about family tradition? cause yeah no im familiar

but realistically if i was completely risk adverse i wouldn’t ride at all around here

[chilly veldt]

Yeahhh, Kevlar infused clothing for me

[molten sky]

used a mesh armored jacket normally

occasionally just a tshirt but that was pretty rare

leathers would SUCK in the summer here but mesh was tolerable

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, my jacket is mesh

[molten sky]

well, as long as you were moving

wore it year round cause i was too cheap to have a separate winter one lol

[chilly veldt]

Just wear a hoodie under

[molten sky]

oh no, you’d probably die with just a hoodie

had thermals, sweater, hoodie, rain liner for wind, another, (electric-) heated jacket liner…

gortex gater (for wind) over top a thick balaclava

[chilly veldt]

Oh lord

[molten sky]

it be chilly

take your avg winter, and lets say you don’t ride TOO much below freezing cause black ice, so maybe -10 - -20C coldest, at night (no sun), with wind, and THEN you’re doing say 140kmh or whatever not so fun wind chill getting home

gotta layer

[chilly veldt]

Yeahhhhhh, no thanks

Anything hitting 2C I will not be riding

[molten sky]

the heated liners are nice cause you can head out during the day let’s say and then if the temp drops a ton cause sun down you just turn up the heat, no need to adjust all your 17 layers

[chilly veldt]

Would love heated grips

[molten sky]

it’s fun when you don’t expect to be out long so you don’t layer up all the way then before you know it the suns down and you’re 2h out lol

[chilly veldt]

Me whenever I am out for meets

[molten sky]

i dont like em too much tbh, i prefered my gloves. all around heat rather than just middle of palm

ALTHOUGH if you get fabric bush guards for your bars to block the wind, the heated grips come out on top EASY

[chilly veldt]

Yuuuup

I am going looking at a bike tomorrow, the grips are kinda poking out, but they still kinda not wide

[molten sky]

bush guards are. abit of a pain on that riding style bike but they work

a lil bit easier with a standard positioning rather than sportish

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, I'll change the riding style next year most likely

Making it sportstouring instead of sport

[molten sky]

also gotta make sure they don’t interfere with turning the bars over with how tight to the plastics they can be

ngl i liked my standard. it was comfy (well, enough) for longer trips, no pain coming off after several hours cause you’re not hunched over

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, that's why I am going touring as well

But would love the agility of a sports bike

[molten sky]

raising the bars?

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, going with a setup like this

[molten sky]

not terribly difficult

probably easier than adjusting the chain tbh

[chilly veldt]

Yeee

[molten sky]

not sure what your plastics cover but for my MT one of my very first adds was a rad guard, as well
keeps debris from fucking up the fins and both making it look bad + just stopping damage in general

[chilly veldt]

We'll see

[brisk tree]

morning

[molten sky]

i should set an alert for if the current owner ever lists that VIN on marketplaces here
wanna get that bike back

[brisk tree]

bug bounty is so confusing ahaha

[molten sky]

how so?

tryna figure out scopes and shit?

[brisk tree]

yeah i tried some port scans on a few domains that are doing bug bounty and kept timing out

[molten sky]

weird

[brisk tree]

trying to see what to do and what not to do

yeah the host kept timing out

[molten sky]

port scanning is a weird area where it's often either (-) explicitly disallowed (-) exceeds rate limits, if set, and not taking a millennia (-) violates the rules of the cloud host itself

never saw it become an issue but it's a weird spot i feel like

[brisk tree]

yeah it happened on two domains

i thought maybe its cause im not in root but would that even make a difference

[molten sky]

could be rate limiting

[brisk tree]

not sure all it says is skipping host due to host timing out

[molten sky]

if it worked at first then it probably is

could try a vpn to see if a new ip clears it up

[brisk tree]

yeah i might try

[molten sky]

i tend not to do bounties off of a vpn anyways, cause i don't wanna piss off some WAF with my home ip

[brisk tree]

but ill find a smaller domain. the scan would have taken 4 hours to finish

😂

[brisk tree]

ah

[molten sky]

..what are you doing that would take 4 hours? 65k ports is still 65k ports on another domain, as well

[brisk tree]

nmap -p- ip-address -T4

the one im doing now will take 2 mins

unless i misread and it said 4 mins

[molten sky]

nmap -sC -sV -O -oA detailed_nmap {target} is the old default i had

[brisk tree]

ah ok

[molten sky]

(won't change much, just happened to have it up)

[brisk tree]

i usually do that without the -O -oA

ah ok

ok it worked this time

[molten sky]

I always dump to a file cause for longer hunts keeping 73 shells open isn't the best way to do things

easier to just have a file available to reference as needed

never had much use for the xml out but i used the norm nmap out and greppable quite a bit

[brisk tree]

aww i see

The attack box is very slow

[sick lance]

Which room?

[rapid merlin]

scp?

[quick cipher]

I don't think that works

And also no access to internet, so can't even use something like send-file.com

[sick lance]

We don't usually tell people how to get them off the target machine.

[rapid merlin]

oh attack box, I see.

[sick lance]

Instead, using the machine is best practice.

Well, it is extremely slow for me, I can't work like this, I even have the premium, by any chance can you send it to me personally? It's impossible to work in this

No, I can't.

Use the VPN and SCP.
You do this at your own risk

[quick cipher]

Oh well

[rapid merlin]

even python http server not work?

[naive violet]

Would need VPN too but that'd work.

[quick cipher]

I will have to connect to openvpn and try, too much work I thought there would be an easier way but oh well

[rapid merlin]

There are many easy ways just depends how you think about it. If you use attack box you probably wont be able to get the file locally, but if you vpn from your own box it's different.

[sick lance]

Linux fundamentals 2.

[quick cipher]

The file is only available in attack box

I bought the premium thinking it would work better/faster

[naive violet]

If you're a subscriber, your attackbox has internet access

[rapid merlin]

James is the goat

I guess I need to move to #site-support then

Hello there

How this referral link works??

My friend is trying to purchase the try hack me subscription...

using my referral.. but how does it actually works?

@sick lance sorry to ping you.. can you please help me with this?

[sick lance]

I think you send them the link, they create an account then buy premium

[deft cloak]

OK.. yes it's showing one person in my list...

they also get 5$

right??

but it showing 14$ when she is about to do payment...

[sick lance]

Monthly or annual?

Stupid question, I know.

[near hawk]

They get $5 credit when they get a subscription using the code they got at checkout

The subsciption will be $14, when they sign up to premium with the code at checkout that's when it gets added

[deft cloak]

monthly

[deft cloak]

ohh thank you so much

[sick lance]

Moving data around is a nightmare without a server.

[chilly veldt]

restful API's which has shitty endpoints

[rapid merlin]

hey, i'm looking for certificate

should i get CEH or OSCP?

[sick lance]

Where do you live?

[rapid merlin]

i mean does it matter ?

[sick lance]

For this advice. yes.. Pretty much so.

[rapid merlin]

Turkiye

[sick lance]

I don't think CeH would be usefull to you then, it's only really asked for in India.

[rapid merlin]

hm

i mean i dont care about price

so what about OSCP ?

[sick lance]

More useful the CeH.

I'm not telling you not to go for Ceh because of the price, I'm advising you not to because it's well, shit.

[rapid merlin]

CEH is fine then ig

[static bolt]

What about CompTIA ones?

[sick lance]

What about 'em?

[knotty dome]

[brisk tree]

ahahahhahaha

[chilly veldt]

at least they are branching out

sorry, I'll stash my jokes away

[crimson flax]

Is CompTia Pentest + worth it?

[chilly veldt]

And everyone in between

[mossy river]

Depends

[crimson flax]

?

[mossy river]

Have you checked jobs that you want to do whether it’s a HR requirement?

Do the skills you’re certifying apply to the job area you want to go into?

[crimson flax]

I m already working as cyber sec engineer, 2,5y mostly on pentesting. I m asking from aspect of future jobs/learning something new

[sick lance]

Go faster!

[knotty dome]

Was thinking of hosting an attackbox myself on my own server (for e.g. testing my own website), is there a list of all the dependencies/programs that are installed on the thm attackbox?

[sick lance]

Where is your website hosted?

[knotty dome]

wdym

atm locally on my server (no portforwarding for now)

[sick lance]

You would have to look yourself, THM doesn't provide any documentation got attackbox yourself.

If you fake a screenshot it helps to copy and paste the original characters.

I’m pretty sure they are using an X-Ray design to just show you what it looks like inside 😄

you dig

it is one of my favorites, i just watched it yesterday again

and things happened

[sonic fox]

I already did it and I didn't understand very well

[sick lance]

You just follow along with the content and rooms.

[sonic fox]

That's what I did, I completed the 7 rooms and I didn't quite understand it. 🥹

[sonic fox]

couldn't you teach me?

[sick lance]

Ideally not.

It's not something that will take a couple of hours.

[sonic fox]

Could you teach me the basics, or how to do certain things, how to hack accounts, etc.

[sick lance]

Depending the account, would make it illegal or not, which is something we don't do in this server, it's against the rules. 🙂

[mystic cloak]

nobody can teach you anything actually, only you can teach to yourself. Have some motivation. :')

[static bolt]

There was a good talk from PicoCTF creator about self-education

[static bolt]

Dig for the CTF 🙂

[wide marten]

Hacking accounts is not something taught on THM or on this server. It's practically never a legal thing to do.

[sonic fox]

Thanks, but there are some things I don't understand 😭

Sorry for that I'm stuck with sub 1 mbit/s internet and my messages don't go out...

[sonic fox]

I understand, but I guess it's something basic, right? I don't intend to misuse it, I intend to learn

[sick lance]

💀

[mystic cloak]

There are a lot of ways to make your aim real.

So there is not a way to "hack accounts" or anything you want to do

[main steppe]

84 h 💀

[wide marten]

In real life social engineering to get account credentials is very important for malicious hackers. Since that is impossible to simulate you won't see any of it on platforms like THM.

[mystic cloak]

i think there is a simulated phishing challange on redteam capstone network

but not sure though

[sick lance]

There is.

Phishing is an attack vector on #red-team-capstone-challenge

One of about 2-300.

[sonic fox]

I understand, thank you for explaining things to me

[mystic cloak]

alright any ctfs related to wild west :D?

[wide marten]

There's surprisingly few themed ctfs. So much potential. Ancient Rome, Greece, pirates, space...

[mystic cloak]

but wild west!?

it is too sad that %90 of ctfs are related to modern world

[shut hawk]

There's a lot of themed ctfs on TryHackMe

[mystic cloak]

yeah I know

[mossy river]

There are two sides to this coin lol

[shut hawk]

@mossy river some idiot set of the fire alarm during my exam

💀

[mossy river]

That’s a free pass

[shut hawk]

Nah, cause we had to stay where we were and continue working

[mossy river]

Crazy

[shut hawk]

Like that was possible with the continuous ear piercing noise

[mossy river]

I would have refused tbf

[shut hawk]

And do what instead?

[mossy river]

College is different to A Levels though

[shut hawk]

Wdym?

But the exam board was contacted and we should be given some extra marks hopefully to make up for it, luckily was only 5-10 mins

[mossy river]

Pearson?

[shut hawk]

Apart from the fact it also happened before our exam started causing a 30 minute delay too

OCR

[crude stump]

Tbh they should cancel and do another day

[mossy river]

Pearson have rules about fire alarms going off during exams

[wide marten]

Pearson does school/college exams?

[mossy river]

Wym

[shut hawk]

Yeah, it's called Edexcel

So like Edexcel A-Level Further Mathematics

[wide marten]

Very happy in my country exams are not in the hand of for profit corporations. Absurd in my view. Only know them from online certification exams.

[shut hawk]

Edexcel is the only privately owned exam board here

The rest are all public charities

[kindred falcon]

hi

[warm terrace]

yowww 😎

[kindred falcon]

what all can i do with my ip adress? like in terms of hacking and all

just got into hacking

[wide marten]

You can attack yourself.

[warm terrace]

🗿

[kindred falcon]

which attack?

[worn thorn]

you sure it's about yours?

[wide marten]

Depends.

[cosmic pendant]

Nice test

[warm kettle]

Is the Free version of Bit Defender good?

[stark karma]

Is king of the hill ip a public ip or do we need to connect to vpn?

[blazing granite]

@shell nova can help you

[warm kettle]

Need to connect to tryhackme vpn

Use open vpn with their conf file

[shell nova]

Not much

[shell nova]

Let's not incite people to do stupid things, ok?

[stark karma]

Got it I directly clicked the KOTH in the game now

[kindred falcon]

okay

[tulip heath]

Just purchased THM subscription

[crude stump]

Nice

[kindred falcon]

then why people are so worried about leaking it

[pallid lotus]

Oi. Pretty much all of mine are themed

[crude stump]

Do your research

[shell nova]

Theseus is a fun one

[wide marten]

Because for somebody else it might make sense to attack you using your IP address. You wouldn't attack yourself on the other hand.

[shell nova]

Because they don't know better... Your IP is effectively logged every time you connect to a server

[wide marten]

Also the IP might give away at least a rough geographic location.

[pallid lotus]

Because they have a very limited understanding of networking and how the internet works

[shell nova]

Depends on how the ISP proxies everything

[kindred falcon]

i have done and can't find much

[pallid lotus]

It literally does not matter. Your public IP address can't be linked to you by anyone other than your ISP and law enforcement (depending on jurisdiction, and even then it needs to go through your ISP)

[shell nova]

Assuming you set up your router properly, it should filter most everything from the net

[strange gazelle]

I was doing a walkthrough room for the last week. But suddenly today its asking me to subscribe. Is there some sort of timeout period? I was doing the Burp Suite Intro room

[shell nova]

Country at least

[wide marten]

Now we're talking different scenarios. Genuine servers, likely web, logging an IP vs. a malicious hacker who first needs this information.

[kindred falcon]

it gave location of the isp

[pallid lotus]

That's how most modules on THM work. They give you the first couple of rooms for free then paywall the rest of the module

[shell nova]

I mean there's a limited number of IPS, and they're brute forcing the list in massive scans anyway

[strange gazelle]

the module i was doing got paywalled

[fathom sand]

Hi

[pallid lotus]

Oh now that's interesting

They've paywalled the entire module now

You're quite correct. That's new

[wide marten]

I was thinking about one attacker wanting to attack a specific individual's machine.

[pallid lotus]

Chances of that happening for the vast majority of internet users?

[wide marten]

Very low

[strange gazelle]

i can access the 2nd module tho

[pallid lotus]

Mhm. Much more likely to get hit with drive-by malware

[pallid lotus]

Lmfao
Yeah, paywall the first room in the module, leave the second open, then paywall the rest

That tracks

[strange gazelle]

beauty

[chilly veldt]

[pallid lotus]

What the. How the heck did those rooms get easy and medium ratings rather than info?

[loud marlin]

@mossy river from yesterday of speed test. setting VPN on router is for sure nice thing. but even with the acceleration it comes with quite hard price in speed

[wide marten]

What are the subnets for target VMs and attackboxes respectively? I could use that for troubleshooting over in help.

[pallid lotus]

10.10.0.0/16

For, uh, both

[wide marten]

So I can't tell from the IP, ok

[pallid lotus]

Correct

[wide marten]

Because a lot of times people mix them up

[gray sonnet]

Hey, Muiri's red again 👀

[pallid lotus]

The big giveaway tends to be if they try to connect over HTTP -- they get a 405 back from the reverse proxy which handles websockets -> NoVNC

Which, arguably, would be an ideal place to put a "Hey, you're in the wrong place, try connecting to the target machine instead" message, rather than the 405 Method Not Allowed error, but hey, that hasn't happened 🤷‍♂️

Literally every time I say something in here lmfao

[agile pulsar]

Guys what the best youtube playlist or other courses to learn linux (intermdiate level or all level)

[mossy river]

Have you tried the Linux fundamentals room on tryhackme

[agile pulsar]

Tbh i know the fundamentals

Like process /disk partition/regex

So i did not try

[mossy river]

A lot of linux learning will come through general linux use

[agile pulsar]

Wdym

[crude stump]

He means once you try different commands and you put them to use they sort of come natural

Aka learning

[agile pulsar]

Ah i see

But i wanna learn other conceptz

Like scripting

And permissions

With some tutorials

[neon river]

hello all

[steel tartan]

hi

[wide marten]

Learn Linux TV on yt is good

[steel tartan]

i'm new here

[crude stump]

Lmao

[neon river]

I would have to agree that the best way to learn linux is by using it

[crude stump]

He knows that

[neon river]

and by learning to fix problems yourself when they arise

[crude stump]

He wants to learn more then just the

Basics

[neon river]

research ig?

you can do THM rooms

and also look at new vulnerabilities that arise on places like NIST's NVD

[wide marten]

By the way you left the si parameter in that YouTube introduced a couple of months ago to track shared links. I always remove it.

[crude stump]

Oo

Welp

[steel tartan]

does anyone know any cell phone hacking programs? I need it urgently, a guy leaked some of my friend's intimate conversations and the only thing we know is his number

[neon river]

holy shit the THM site now has a navbar

[neon river]

@sick lance

[crude stump]

Never knew that

[steel tartan]

🐭

[crude stump]

Nothing snitching about that

You have law enforcement for that

[neon river]

you can't talk about illegal or unethical stuff here

also for the love of God retaliation will just dig a bigger hole for yourself

[crude stump]

Mind if I ask what’s the danger in that?

[neon river]

telemetry and tracking = bad

[crude stump]

I see

[neon river]

google already has enough information on us lol

I don't need them tracking me across discord as well 😭

they probably do alr tbh

[crude stump]

So it’s more of a “YouTube tracking you”

[neon river]

• pettiness

[mossy river]

We don’t do that here, it is unethical and against the community rules

[steel tartan]

oh, srry

[crude stump]

lol

[wide marten]

I don't know specifically. I just prefer my links to be not tracking anyone or anything. Feels dirty. And who knows maybe through some vulnerability one day it's gonna be possible to get my Google account name through the tracking parameter.

[neon river]

saying "sorry" to mod for your original actions after sending a rat emoji to another person is crazy

Gotcha, yeah, I have a checkpoint firewall and my router firewall working in tandem

[shell nova]

Oh dear, hope you patched it this week

[loud marlin]

i have on router now. also i set vpn, but at cost of load of speed

Microsoft fixing privacy issues or vulnerabilities?

[wild rose]

Fix it, fuck around and find out either way still is a bad idea.

[boreal scarab]

I really wonder if it's actually sending those screenshots to Microsoft like @umbral bay pondered. But I would need to build a new VM and not have it on my main network cause I block A LOT of telemetry shtuff.

[shell nova]

Considering what it's abusing to scan I'd say it's not that bad

[whole yew]

Would any of y'all actually use this? https://github.com/automateyournetwork/packet_raptor

[shut hawk]

oddly specific question 🤔

I mean, if my usecase required it? Looks interesting

[gray sonnet]

AI? to talk to pcaps?

interesting

[wide marten]

Rate my setup.

[gray sonnet]

[boreal scarab]

Are you back in the 1500's?

[loud marlin]

holly sheeeet... i love this old school setup 🙂

[boreal scarab]

I haven't tried it, or know exactly how it works, but you can probably ask it if there's any data being sent from X to Y.

🤔

[wide marten]

Good guess! Kopernikus was born in this house 🌍☀️

[boreal scarab]

Welp. Time to build a new VM and try it out!

[shell nova]

Report back 🙂

looks great mate

but I don t think that big piece of ham will cut it for a meal

maybe a snack?

[boreal scarab]

LMFAO

[gray sonnet]

[loud marlin]

well... is not wrong 🙂

[bold dawn]

lmao

[chilly veldt]

looks like it won't help tbh

it can give a generalized overview, but there's better tools than an AI for that, and because it's just a random LLM it'll most likely not be able to deep dive into stuff that is forensics based

[boreal scarab]

You've tested it out?

[chilly veldt]

narh, I just know AI and pcap reading

[boreal scarab]

Well, still worth a shot

UGH..... Fucking windows 11. I don't want to use a microsoft account, give me a local account.... jfc

[loud marlin]

so far, i'm not sure how microsoft even allow you to use windows at all... BSOD

[tawny magnet]

OOBE

[boreal scarab]

You're rightee. Had to use command prompt to bypass it

[tawny magnet]

still though, it should be an easy to access option rather than jumping through hoops

[boreal scarab]

Um...... I give them data for free?

[loud marlin]

share also ssh keys

[boreal scarab]

Windows 10 you could, windows 11 basically said:

"Screw you, you must sign in, here's copilot AI, also, here's a VERY invasive thing apart of Copilot called "Recall", in which the AI takes screenshots of your screen without telling you it is. Oh, and that can be enabled remotely without your input. HAVE FUN"

@loud marlin https://www.reddit.com/r/Fallout/comments/1d9ib0l/_/

You should make some tokens

[bold dawn]

Shift F10, "OOBE\BYPASSNRO"

[boreal scarab]

Done that, disconnected the adapter in VMWare for ethernet, and now I'm creating a local account

[bold dawn]

yeah, overcomplicated

[shut hawk]

just disconnect it from the network, that's quite simple lol

[loud marlin]

sweet. that is 3d relief. for that you need 30 and more w laser. and need around 5-6hours. but yea. great

[boreal scarab]

"Create a super memorable password"
Me: Password1234

[bold dawn]

no, you don't get the option unless you force it to bypass its OOBE setting

vs win10, you could just disconnect internet

[boreal scarab]

Better than my lab passwords 🤔

[naive violet]

It'd probably take crayon wax quite well at a shallower depth

Also just buy a CNC mill already smh

[shut hawk]

I don't think so? I vividly remember setting up my w11 laptop that way (not connecting it to the internet, and choosing the local acount option)

[buoyant tree]

@boreal scarab did you do this while sleeping?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_21VGRKuWYE

[bold dawn]

I have noticed a couple have different set up screens when prebuilt on a machine, but not when using ISO

[loud marlin]

cnc will do for sure. just laser is quite precise. but for coin will do the trick on cnc

[boreal scarab]

The fact I can create that simple password in Windows is REALLY REALLY REALLY damn concerning.

[normal fable]

It says 'bricks' not 'BSODs' .... 😛

[naive violet]

Why? Software shouldn't protect you from yourself

[bold dawn]

laser engraver? Do you have one?

[shut hawk]

You can do that with Linux too 😉

[naive violet]

It should ask "are you sure" but it shouldn't baby you

[buoyant tree]

Perma BSOD

[loud marlin]

yes. but not great one. im 2w on IR laser and 10w on blue laser

[bold dawn]

Gotcha. I've been looking into a 30W laser

[boreal scarab]

Well yah, but it should say "Hey, you should have atleast 1 uppercase, 1 lowercase, 1 symbol, and 1 number, and no dictionary words."

Yah, it might be difficult for some people, but ATLEAST have that on the Pro version of windows, Home can stay the same... but pro?

[crude stump]

Agreed

[naive violet]

Password complexity is actually considered poor practice often

[shut hawk]

Most of my passwords would not pass that criteria lol

[naive violet]

Makes people reuse

[boreal scarab]

Better than "Password"

[naive violet]

"No dictionary words" is especially BS

[naive violet]

You should allow xkcd style passwords

[crude stump]

My favorite password

[buoyant tree]

huh?

[naive violet]

Correct Horse Battery Staple.

[shut hawk]

As an example

[sick lance]

Nah, if you create a local account you won't need to.

With no connectivity.

[crude stump]

But why couldn’t brute force software guess that easier then if it had symbols

[naive violet]

There's a shitload of words

[sick lance]

length.

[crude stump]

Oh yeah

[sick lance]

Only way to maybe bruteforce it is if you know a password policy an org uses.

[crude stump]

Actually makes a lot of sense lol

[bold dawn]

but it doesn't let you... that is what I am saying. Some factory installs will, but by ISO won't Same issue matt just faced, same issue I've faces with 90% of the windows 11 installs I do

[sick lance]

It done it with me with all devices I've installed W11 on.

[crude stump]

There’s a few symbols but loads of words

[bold dawn]

Odd. Well we literally made a KB for our techs on it because it happens so often for us

[boreal scarab]

Ugh, trying to remember how the hell I got my win 10 scambait VM to just use wifi and not ethernet....

[bold dawn]

I've had maybe 2 or 3 devices let me make a local account without having to bypass it

[rapid merlin]

Bridge + assign wifi adapter

[sick lance]

Ohh bridged.

That's a smart idea with a silly password.

[boreal scarab]

Not here. You have to open command prompt, type the command someone posted a bit ago, disconnect ethernet, and then it gives you the option to sign in with a local account

[rapid merlin]

Yeah there you have a point

[crude stump]

Wdym scam bait vm

Like you sign up for stupid stuff to get scammers?

[sick lance]

Don't ask

[buoyant tree]

What do yall think about Operation endgame trying to make the criminals snitch onthemselves

[crude stump]

Rodger

[rapid merlin]

Btw assigning wifi adapter should still be possible without bridging

[boreal scarab]

I got away with it on a NAT network, but I believe I disabled ethernet, and connected with a wifi adapter, but it doesn't wanna sdhow up in the VM in VMWare

[sick lance]

Worked well for Project Anom.

[crude stump]

If it works it works

[buoyant tree]

Project Anom wasn't advertising itself as a fed operation

[crude stump]

And if there dumb enough to snitch on themselves bravo

[buoyant tree]

it's targeted at Russians so I dunno why they would snitch on themselves because they won't be arrested by interpol
