gruvbox???

tryhackme

pc parts still in postnord/ups

they are marked as arriving tomorrow

[normal fable]

Yay!

[sand trench]

now to hope that is not a fat lie

[lament tendon]

Gruvbox best.

[sand trench]

disagree but then again colorschemes is highly personal preference

[lament tendon]

What's your go to?

[sand trench]

catppuccin mocha

[lament tendon]

Hmm.

Fair.

Not too different.

I like gruvbox more tho.
And yes, this is a shameless rice flex.

[normal fable]

yeah.. but a very pretty flex. Nice owl. 🙂

[sand trench]

that is shadows tmux.conf file for those wondering

[lament tendon]

Thanks, I made the rice myself but stole the owl from some ascii art forum. xD

i.e tmux configuration file

[lament tendon]

Polybar, neat.

[sand trench]

???

[lament tendon]

Is that not polybar at the top?

Nevermind, I'm a big dummy.

Forget it.

[sand trench]

that is tmux status bar with the catppuccin theme

at the bottom is neovims mini status bar

[lament tendon]

Yea, I figured that out, whaha.

[sand trench]

i.e it a picture of just the terminal window

[tidal quartz]

Yessir

[sand trench]

neat to see shadow is starting to be able to see what colorscheme something is using just by quick looks

[tidal quartz]

I'm not a something

[sand trench]

that was refering to the terminal in your picture using it but fair

Did someone say coffee?

[sand trench]

coffee the life blood of every nordic country

[boreal scarab]

And akvavit!

Oh, dont forget mead!

[sand trench]

we don't give mead or akvavit to kids beerrise

[boreal scarab]

[tidal quartz]

Btw, how long have you been using catpuccin mocha

[sand trench]

a few months now

started setting it up for every program shadow uses basically

probably closer to year actually

[tidal quartz]

I see. I had been using it for a year and a half but got tired of it. Gruvbox is the sweetspot for me. But I'm actively looking for new colorschemes to try.
Any that caught your attention?

[sand trench]

dracula
nord
rosepine

[tidal quartz]

Are you spying on me? These are literally the only colorschemes along with catpuccin and gruvbox that I have EVER used

[sand trench]

well nah

this is the list of the most commonly used colorschemes with the most application support

technically solarzied and gruvbox can get in there but they have harder times to find ports for

[tidal quartz]

Now that I look at it again, nord is ugly

[tidal quartz]

Yeah

[gray sonnet]

is that...arch?

[sand trench]

basically yes.... it is endeavour os according to the neofetch

Oi @boreal scarab a question about gofundme, I seen a lotta ones where the organizer for somebody's in the US while the person in need is in another country usually, so like is there a limit on other countries or what. Unrelated directly to Vain's post.

[buoyant tree]

That ain't a 15 year old

[gray sonnet]

you can't make a gofundme in certain countries

[sand trench]

what is striking shadow as weird about it is the no favouritism showing with stuff like this... but eh will just drop that here as stated staff signed off on it

Redoing cabeling when you already have zipties is annoying as hell, not gonna lie.

[rapid merlin]

Doesn't seem very ethical

[left patio]

What can I use then?

[rapid merlin]

yep only realistic downside to zipties with cable management, pain in the ass to undo LOL

Eh, once every 1-4 day(s).

So, old company i used to work for, they were giving up half of the building, so they moved the MDF to a BRAND NEW room, servers, switches etc. Thats not my team, so had no say.

They decided... besides cable managing, to have every cable drupe down then up

Kinda like this

We had to patch cables sometimes... with 12' cables... 😦

Lack of resources.. Me and a buddy spent an entire weekend cleaning up that building.

[boreal scarab]

@mossy river not mine, but this is exactly what it looked like in a brand new room

[pearl raven]

That looks like a solid few weekends of work... ew...

[mossy river]

My wire management is cringe so I can't comment

[boreal scarab]

I couldnt touch it.... not network team, i was support at the time

[split compass]

Hmmm I could tell stories... Most have had decent cable management... Because we cared, but the stuff I've seen from the cabling contractors they hire. 😓

[boreal scarab]

Allni could do is spend 30 minutes tracing 1 cable to a problem child

And EVERYONE was "put in a ticket"... this job, call anothed tech, get them to plug in a certain port, and its live

[mossy river]

I'm the problem child

[split compass]

I had to get the folks at $job.current to cleanup the datacenter a lot.

I still go through and pull errant cables and fix things up occasionally.

It's far from great, but it's good enough that cable tracing will never be a time sink.

[rapid merlin]

Yeah it's a good feeling when you can walk into a network closet and you know exactly which port and cable to check on, so much easier.

Hey guys anyone have any input on this?
I want to delete all my messages in a certain discord server before I leave it. ChatGPT tells me I can use a script in the browser console to do this. It gives me a JavaScript code where I have to fill in my Discord Token, Discord ID and Channel ID. When opening the Browser Console in Discord Web version it says that pasting any code there could give attackers access to my account, and unless I know exactly what i am doing I should just close the console (and if I do know what im doing I should apply for a job at Discord, ha-ha).

Anyways, anyone have any experience with doing this, is it safe to copy/past the JavaScript that ChatGPT gave me and fill in my Discord Token, Discord ID and Channel ID?

not to add im pretty sure i read somewhere a while back the main message deleter on browser for discord got backdoored or something lmao

[shut hawk]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mossy river]

I doubt it tbh

[floral abyss]

So only manually doing it is allowed?

[mossy river]

Mhm

You can make it faster by using the search bar

[rapid merlin]

a lot of false rumours online

[floral abyss]

Goes from weeks to days still too much work haha

[mossy river]

Hold shift before pressing delete message to instantly delete

You will be rate limited by discord though

[sand trench]

YAWN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1fxZ-VWs2U

[mossy river]

Sending messages, reacting or deleting messages may bug out. You might also be captcha'd a few times.

[floral abyss]

good to know

[sand trench]

huh that is something shadow has never seen discord do to them yet.... put captcha

guess shadow looks human enough for discord

[kindred apex]

Uhm chat got is sometimes incorrect so u have premium!?

[rapid merlin]

rdr2 time

[sick lance]

If it's for thus server I can ban you and delete all your messages

This*

[wooden totem]

I think bots can only delete up to 3 days old messages

[shut hawk]

bots can delete everything

[sand trench]

if you want the absolute fastest deletion of all your messages sending a GDPR account and data deletion request to discord is definitely the fastest

[shut hawk]

not sure about the native ban feature though

[sand trench]

assuming they honor those which it looks like they do

[floral abyss]

haha no not this server

[kindred apex]

Have u bought this decoration!?

Anyone has a wall pc

[terse edge]

Hi. Could someone kindly look in #subs-room-help for my question? Thank you very much

[kindred apex]

U have gaming pc

?

[sand trench]

SOON

[wooden totem]

I have a gaming pc

Whitewclueless

[kindred apex]

Which graphic card u r buying!?

[sick lance]

Please don't do this, it's impatient.

[mossy river]

I think I had issues with manually implementing this. Something was stopping me after 7 days

[kindred apex]

[shut hawk]

[normal fable]

My ex just sent me a news article about the DMV.. ransomware.. lol

[sand trench]

[shut hawk]

odd. definitely should be able to - think you can do it with yagpd as an example

[sand trench]

huh thought you had an active subscription already as a room tester.... guess shadow was wrong

[kindred apex]

U r from which country!?

[lament tendon]

Am I insane enough to start a completely new OS rice project right now?

[shut hawk]

i do, im just not up to date with the verification

setting a poor example

[sand trench]

you should be able to figure that out based on shadows discord profile and the pc part list they linked

video editor setup

[terse edge]

There is little help and mostly moderation on this server. Mostly it's just people telling each other what not to do instead of actual support, I've found.

[boreal scarab]

Even war thunder got in on it!

Ngl, I like the Fossify keyboard, but omg, My muscle memory is too used to samsung keyboard

[mossy river]

Time to cook

[wooden totem]

You need to get off war thunder before it consumes you and your wallet

[boreal scarab]

Too late!

[wooden totem]

no no no no, I can be a great motivation, I quit at 1400 hours

[sick lance]

You're not the only one who is told this.

[wooden totem]

I have recovered from war thunder, had to use "hide this game" in order to forget about it

[normal fable]

I still play air time to time..

no good at tanks at all...

[terse edge]

Sorry. I don't socialize here and/or participate in conversations. People are obnoxious, pick arguments, and when you try to discuss something, they claim it as an argument and say, oh you're arguing with people. So no, I don't socialize here. I limit myself to just room help and that's it.

[normal fable]

I think there are a lot of cheaters on WT...

[wooden totem]

chatters or cheaters

[normal fable]

ah.. cheaters.. good catch.

[wooden totem]

Everyone playing ussr is basically cheating, have you seen top tier matches

[normal fable]

nope. I should looks some up..

[wooden totem]

They dont even need cheats, the vehicles are so overpowered for that nation

[normal fable]

@boreal scarab, how is tanks in WT these days?

[fleet turtle]

its so easy for me to quit war thunder because i dont have the patience to grind low tier and im too bad at high tier so being a wallet warrior doesnt help

[normal fable]

WoT got the same way with gold ammo... if you didn't have it, you didn't have a chance..

and tanks..

[boreal scarab]

Dunno, haven't played in about a month

Lol

[wooden totem]

You have been saved

[normal fable]

We should hop in a match sometime. lol

Last time I played it was like I got shot from across the map every time..

[pine stratus]

hey shadow ! do u like cats ?

[crude stump]

Y’all are just loving the AI

[sand trench]

yes

[mossy river]

Was from Google

[sand trench]

sadly have a slight alergy to cat fur though

[crude stump]

Bruh

Well

Still looks generated

[pine stratus]

😔

i have 5 cats

🤤

[supple tangle]

woah so many

we have 1 thinking about 2 more

[crude stump]

I love cats too

[pine stratus]

ahahahha 5 cats better than 5 people

[supple tangle]

very true

[crude stump]

Yall like hairless cats

[supple tangle]

cats are pure happiness, ppl not so much

[pine stratus]

got one

[wooden totem]

Here's a shocker; I dislike cats

[crude stump]

I LOVE HAIRLESS CATS

[supple tangle]

that's ok, i really dislike dogs

[crude stump]

What type

[pine stratus]

am thinking of bringing a dog too

[crude stump]

Type of car is that

[eternal timber]

What’s the car model

[crude stump]

Yeah

What kamma said

[cold jungle]

Why not take 16x4 ram? As far as I know splitting it up increase the performance

[wild rose]

one that goes meow from 0-60 mph.

[sand trench]

apparently that is not always true

[normal fable]

several factors involved there...

[supple tangle]

well i can't say i condone that type of behaviour but you're free to take risks

[pine stratus]

Riskss. ?

for me or for my cats ?

[supple tangle]

for you and your guests, cats will be fine

but dogs have 0 respect for personal boundaries and they stink and bark and so on

[crude stump]

Dogs work well with cats. Better if they grew up together

[chilly veldt]

Lmao, the local Carl's jr kiosks run on CentOS

[tired peak]

some dogs, it depends, some have a prey instinct that is very strong

[pine stratus]

nah , im thinking of bringing a golden retriever

[crude stump]

True

[supple tangle]

yeah those are less bad than others

[crude stump]

Really depends on the dogs personality

[shadow loom]

rip

isn't that EOL now or

or wait, stream 9 might not be

[pine stratus]

if a dog is well trained nothing to be scared of

only if he gort some sickness

[cold jungle]

Why so? Can you explain please... Am also thinking of building custom pc.

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, looks to run CentOS with gnome

[sand trench]

@cold jungle

[chilly veldt]

Just had a worker restart one of them and saw the whole reboot

[cold jungle]

Ahh, it make sense now... Thanks for the information

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #3 - 1837)

[sand trench]

no problem

[gray orbit]

Hey guys, the fascist government here cut the internet for 5 days and probably can also be cut tomorrow as well. Do you all know a way to keep mass communication during such an event? I am all ears to listen to ideas

[cold jungle]

How do I get room tester tag anyway?

[supple tangle]

@sand trench what you gonna study at uni? i feel like you're skilled enough for jobs

[sick lance]

You get invited by QA.

[sand trench]

recommendations from current room testers to admins on tryhackme

[sick lance]

QA Manager.

[sand trench]

IT with security focus

[sick lance]

Which is Tim.

[quick basin]

can someone explain de KOTH concept in tryhackme ?

[sick lance]

Players fight for control of the king.txt while finding flags.

[sand trench]

you and a smal group of hackers are tasked with hacking a machine and grab as many flags for yourself as possible

[sand trench]

kinda true too... had a job programming cash registers for 1 years

[quick basin]

it needs a lot of knowledge no ?

[sick lance]

Eh...

[supple tangle]

yeah i feel like you'll be bored first couple years

[cold jungle]

Been through this situation I can understand your pain... But it seems that there is no possible way. Since you have no wat to communicate with outside network.

But if you find any please tag me there...

[sick lance]

People can pwn it in seconds due to remembering the machine

[sand trench]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sick lance]

the new machine should hopefully stop that.

[cold jungle]

And what's the eligibility criteria to get recommendations?

[sand trench]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

https://youtu.be/s1fxZ-VWs2U?si=iuAQ-OaoOOk3sWpR&t=936 @cold jungle here it is from linus tech tips on the ram speed problem

[sand trench]

and this is kinda be friends and talk and help other users on here... have enough knowledge to be able to test machines in a good way.. and more

but there is technically no limits on who shadow could recommend to tim for room testing

[cold jungle]

Been watching this video... You mentioned it in chat screenshot you shared

[sand trench]

yuups

[cold jungle]

Looking forward to get recommendations 😁

There is still long path to walk

[cold jungle]

How often do you use AI? For hacking?

[sand trench]

not that often... use it a lot for configuration files and explainations

[cold jungle]

I have been feeling kind of weird and stuck in offensive security path

[crude stump]

Are there blue team ctfs

[cold jungle]

I have to use GPT way too often

Is that bad idea? Should I look some other way to get help?

@sand trench

[sick lance]

You can't use ChatGPT during exams.

I'd try and not be too reliant on it.

[sand trench]

are you allowed to bring locally installed llm:s like the ones from ollama????

[cold jungle]

I just started... Trying to understand each and every concept

[sand trench]

yuup there is plenty

[cold jungle]

So I use gpt for that...

[sick lance]

To which exams?

[crude stump]

Do I just look up “blue team ctf” and I should find some

[sand trench]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[worn thorn]

hone your research rather than relying on that piece of code.

[sand trench]

not sure actually but they tended to be labeled blue or red in #announcements when they release

[sand trench]

then write your own notes after asking for summeries from llm:s

[crude stump]

Oh yeah you right. They usually say challenge

[cold jungle]

Yes, I take note of commands explaining what it does also after completing ctf I take a step by step note of how I gained each flag... Which revises the whole process to me.

That's really irritating, I only press the left arrow a few times.

Koopa troopa

[umbral jacinth]

Hi Guys, does anybody have the link to emlanalyzer tool

That was used in advent of cyber two

[signal spade]

Hi

[sick lance]

I use shareX

You can screenshot, make a video or a GIF.

[crude stump]

Yooo

That’s sick

[gritty timber]

Ban seadris from thm please

[sick lance]

Please don't come in and disturb the peace.

[sick lance]

https://getsharex.com/

[crude stump]

Gracias

[sick lance]

You might need to tweak the keybinds for Windows 11 so you can use the Print Screen key to use ShareX for the screenshot.

[supple tangle]

and here i was using snipping tool, i gotta up my game

[crude stump]

Same lmao

The default screenshot

[sick lance]

Also saves them in dated folders.

[supple tangle]

no need to oversell, im downloading it 😄

[normal fable]

6m video on ping and traceroute... lol

[sand trench]

but shadow wanna take screenshots and gifs on linux....

[supple tangle]

https://flameshot.org/

but it seems no gifs?

[sick lance]

Would wine not do this?

Use Wine to download + install?

[sand trench]

hmmmm doubtful

[sand trench]

yuup flameshot has no gif support

[sick lance]

Install wine and winetricks: sudo apt-get install wine winetricks

Then open winetricks by typing winetricks in terminal.

You see "install DLLs and components" after digging down in the interface. Once you see it, click that and select the latest dotnet version and install it.

The final step: Download the sharex setup file and open the terminal in that directory and run wine SHAREXSETUP. (replace SHAREXSETUP with the downloaded file name including extension)

Edit: If you're using wayland, screenshot function may not work.

[sand trench]

but running wine for a screenshot util sounds like crazy stuffs

[sick lance]

https://github.com/alejandromume/sharex-for-linux

[sand trench]

oooh

aaaw it is using a version of things that got archived on github in 2022

[wooden totem]

I just use win11 snipping tool for screenshots and videos, sometimes Win+prtsc for quicky ss

[normal fable]

Windows+Shift+S I think is the default.

[sick lance]

I prefered using GIF for my malware + SoC practicals so they could actually see what I was doing.

And how.

I blame DALL-E

[karmic geyser]

that's why it took you so long to root #1263918597009440891?

[molten solar]

First you must become the birb ... Then you must train hard, and be both the birb, and the worm. Next you will understand the art, and be both the Morning, and the Birb, and the Worm. Finally you will

[clear jackal]

What is the sauce made of? Seems pretty low on fat based on the visual

[mossy river]

It’s canned tomatoes, light cream cheese and chicken stock

[clear jackal]

Are you using a cottage cheese?

Ah ok

If you add a little bit of a corn starch slurry, it will thicken it up. If you want it a little thicker that is, without emulsifying more fat

[mossy river]

I’ll note that down, thanks

[clear jackal]

Np, it's how restaurants make their sauces thicker and glossier

If they don't add a ton of butter, ie Chinese takeaway

French/classical cooking just uses a ton of butter to get the same result

[steel aspen]

The memes be popping

[rapid merlin]

Works with gravy too if you’ve added too much water

They are being transparent

Neither of these are very effective but thx for trying 😄 hahah

[gray sonnet]

hey, atleast you started it off warm and bright right? 😄

[graceful thistle]

well.. depending on what replaces it!

[normal fable]

Town.. town will replace it.

[gray sonnet]

ouch

why are you moving though?

At least I'll have a little yard I can grow plants in. 😁

I hate monsoons cause it's always raining and sky is always gray

yeah... doesn't sound super great

the humidity probably sucks the most

[graceful thistle]

thats nice of you

and it's only 15 mins away from Dad's.. so if he pisses me off I can just hop in the car and leave. 🤣

[graceful thistle]

perfect

[normal fable]

My other thought is that if my dad needs me for anything.. I can be right there.

[wooden totem]

bet I can find exact coordinates in 5 min

it's probably really easy, hehe

@tight imp did it

That's a cool looking house.. I wanna live there.

[steel aspen]

Does $800 for a multi screen, 16gb ram and 3.7ghz processor sound too good to be true?

2 monitors anyway

[normal fable]

What specs specifically? I could build a system for <$800.. but monitors too?

[steel aspen]

Only specs were on device specs

[gray sonnet]

you guys are buying 2 monitors for 800$...

wait...no...that can't be right

[sand trench]

eeeeeugh shadow has a headache

[gray sonnet]

ah, makes sense

[steel aspen]

oh wow

you should get some rest

[steel aspen]

Nearly sounds too good to be true but they could be just selling cheap

[sand trench]

how??? headache is stopping rest

[whole yew]

they won't be more than 1080p

[normal fable]

It is doable for sure.. but cheap hardware.

[steel aspen]

That's fine for me.

[whole yew]

and likely <21"

[gray sonnet]

water 😄

[normal fable]

cheap does not necessarily mean bad btw.

[gray sonnet]

lots and lots of water

[steel aspen]

Also fine. I'm dealing with 15.6" laptop

[sand trench]

could actually be to much water

[steel aspen]

Well yeah but I'm thinking scam being from FB

[whole yew]

Check the specs, and compare price to what retail is from a reputable brand

[gray sonnet]

oh wow, hmm, I usually just put some cold towels on my face and close my eyes

[whole yew]

if there's a significant price difference, need to investigate why

[rapid merlin]

Anyone from the US active rn? And how is the job market for pentesting roles in the US?

[steel aspen]

Intrl i3

[gray sonnet]

there's your problem

[normal fable]

i5 minimum imo.

[steel aspen]

3.7ghz doesn't sound too bad tho

[gray sonnet]

juun and Alt EZ are from the US iirc

[whole yew]

i3 is fine for most pc use cases

[gray sonnet]

see you're not ONLY looking for the processor speed, you're also looking for number of cores

and i3 doesn't have a lot of them

[steel aspen]

And 16gb ram

Yeah doesn't say cores on device

[normal fable]

16gb is standard these days...

[gray sonnet]

if your use case is learning about cyber/pentesting lab/running a bunch of VMs or even gaming, i3 isn't gonna cut it

[whole yew]

what's the plan for what you're doing with it? 16gb of ram is overkill for most business machines, unless heavy on excel or vms

[normal fable]

well.. you can get 8gb.. and works for most people.. but if you want to do anything like VMs then you need min 16 imo.

[steel aspen]

I've been stuck with a laptop lol

[whole yew]

a 4 core i3 is fine for runnin a single vm, vain

eh, you can do VMs with 8.... just can't do much of anything else

[gray sonnet]

that's why I said pentesting lab and running a bunch of VMs too 😄

[whole yew]

16 is my recommendation for a single VM + usable pc

[steel aspen]

Just THM really with a vm

[rapid merlin]

@whole yew how is the job market for pentesting / security consultancies in the US? No worries if you aren’t too sure

[gray sonnet]

I've started out with an i3 myself haha

[normal fable]

Okay yes.. and I have before..

[steel aspen]

My laptop is 12gb ram and does a single vm and host well

That's a higher Intel tho iirc

[whole yew]

i'm not looking right now, so i don't know. Pentesting is not entry level, expect to spend at least 2-5 years in entry level and SOC roles for a 'typical' pentest career path.

[steel aspen]

I don't do much gaming these days but I can still keep my other laptop for gaming

This setup will strictly be for learning

[normal fable]

I haven't looked in a while. Hoping a security role opens up in my company..

[steel aspen]

Don't do much gaming these days anyway lol

[whole yew]

6 core would be my minimum, to run 2 vms at the same time

[rapid merlin]

All good, and I know it’s not entry level :), just researching for the future. Thanks though.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @whole yew (current: #10 - 768)

[gray sonnet]

an i5 or an R5 is recommended 😄

[whole yew]

IIRC there are some newer i3 chips that do have 3 physical + 3 vcpu cores, i would suggest looking at the lower end ryzen chips instead

[steel aspen]

Yeah think my laptop is i5 probably why it handles better with less RAM and processing power

[whole yew]

usually they are cheaper and currently they are just better overall than equivalent intel hardware

[steel aspen]

Guess I'll stick with my laptop for nown

[gray sonnet]

new gen intel hardware is having a few issures iirc

[cunning shoal]

🍞

;.;

[steel aspen]

If I get the i3, I should be able to upgrade it tho?

[gray sonnet]

you definitely should in a desktop computer

but make sure the motherboard is compatible though

[steel aspen]

Unless compatibility issues for some unknown reason I'd say highly unlikely tho

[whole yew]

upgrading laptops is problematic at best

[steel aspen]

Yeah I've been stuck with a laptop that's why I've been jumping at chance for a desktop lol

[gray sonnet]

anywho, I'm going to bed, have a good one THM 👋

[normal fable]

A lot of manufacturers these days solder ram and other components to the laptops.

[whole yew]

upgrading desktops is easier, but you need to keep in mind that pin patterns do periodically change, and even with teh same pin pattern, your mainboard may not support the new cpu you want

[steel aspen]

Then I saw the multi screen for 800 nzd

[cunning shoal]

the best ive manage to do is upgrade RAM and Storage but thats me maybe other people have gotten further

[steel aspen]

Yeah very true

[whole yew]

always always check compatibility thoroughly before buying components for any build or upgrade

[steel aspen]

Download RAM from admin.tryhackme.com?

Yeah there's good websites for that

[tired peak]

I had this one laptop that you had to take out the keyboard to open it up, such a pain

[steel aspen]

That sounds fun.

Hoping I can get a desktop soon.

I'll keep looking around.

[sand trench]

shadows desktop is nearly fully here

just gotta put all the parts together soonish

[shell nova]

Ooh pc builds, need to work that out some dayyear

[normal fable]

I might build another PC soonish..

[sand trench]

all the things

all the parts

all the power

[steel aspen]

Might have to buy one of those hdmi screens for laptops 🤣

[sand trench]

hdmi is a mess of a standard when it comes to how the standards body for it is run

displayport nicer as it is more open standard

[cedar patio]

@tired peak could I ask you sumthing

[sand trench]

you technically just did

[fleet turtle]

joining a discord server based around anything tech is the best way to make imposter syndrome double

[normal fable]

I always get super tired around 3pm... wth?

[sand trench]

that is the time to set a bet against your brains imposter syndrome

i.e here is an example
okay imposter syndrome if shadow don't learn anything new inside this week you win
if shadow learns something new they have made progress and is actually getting better

tada imposter syndrome lessened

[fleet turtle]

ill have to try it once i get a subscription for THM

[fleet turtle]

pretty sure thats everyone nowadays, its pretty weird but i have the same issue

[normal fable]

Maybe it's just old age...

I have no clue how old you are btw.

[fleet turtle]

i think for me i might just not have too much energy

[normal fable]

unless the 77 in your name is the year you were born.. lol

[fleet turtle]

Lmao, nope, just thought 77 looks cool

[normal fable]

🙂

[fleet turtle]

its gonna come for everyone eventually

[normal fable]

can't stop it.. well.. you could.. but that wouldn't be healthy. lol

[fleet turtle]

yeah trying to stop it sounds like a mad scientist thing to do

[sand trench]

another way to quench imposter syndrome is by other people proving the impact of your work

but anyways shadow is having a headache and is just gonna go sleep sloop to the beep boop for the meep moop now

[cosmic pendant]

That is a much better outlook than saying Krueger-Dunning doesn't exist 😄

[normal fable]

You just made that up.. doesn't exist. 😛

[supple tangle]

i disagree

it's like saying anxiety or GAD are not real

[normal fable]

A lawyer once told me "deny everything" so.. I just never stopped. 🤣

[loud marlin]

going better 🙂

[normal fable]

I dig the color scheme.

[supple tangle]

ah ok so you're not saying it doesn't exist

ok

yeah mental stuff is tricky

mind is still a blackbox

[normal fable]

full of grey matter 🙂

[rapid merlin]

What os am I currently looking at

Ignore that, it literally says on there

Avoid caffeine when you wake up 😄

[loud marlin]

lol. kali ofc 🙂
