[sinful moon]

yes?

We have #bot-commands for experimentation

It’s UTC -5 when it’s Eastern Daylight Time. Time zones are just messed up and imaginary c:

[sinful moon]

Yes, most of the United States have what we call Daylight Savings Time where the clock is either moved forward or back an hour twice a year. It was done originally due to World War II concerns about leaving metropolitan areas lit in case of air raids, but the folk story is that it’s “for the farmers” lol

[shell nova]

That bot probably already left tbf

[shell nova]

Most of Europe does summer time as well

[delicate kite]

What? Thats completly opposite of what we know in Europe

[shell nova]

I've heard it was too save energy

[boreal scarab]

@shell nova is the bot smart enough to differentiate context using a blacklisted word like the "R word"?

[shell nova]

No

[delicate kite]

I always thought it was because of the summer/winter time and the sun coming up and going down

[sinful moon]

Saving energy, aka turning off lights at night to be less of a target in an air raid

[boreal scarab]

Like if I'm talking about planes, I might say that, and that's a legitimate term

[delicate kite]

Because days are much longer in summer

[sinful moon]

so it shifted with the darkness

[boreal scarab]

Make bot smort

[sinful moon]

easy excuse was to say it was actually just to give the farmers more light, but lol farmers didn’t care about the time

They’d just work when it was light anways

[delicate kite]

I never knew UK had 2times zones

wow

[sinful moon]

The really fun thing of all this, time is a completely human concept and condition. It’s completely arbitrary how we decided this all and there’s a surprising amount of politics

China for example has one single timezone despite it’s extreme horizontal length, in order to “unify the country”. However, it means that people in the west are waking up at what is practically 4:00 AM to wake up for 8:00 AM Beijing time. Obviously though, this kinda falls into the “farmer don’t care about human time, just sunlight” bit again, but I won’t go into more detail since that’s tricky

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/really-deep-thats-deep-nick-jonas-jumanji-jumanji-movie-gif-11210072

[sinful moon]

then you have cursed half hour timezones like in Australia lol

[delicate kite]

And France has 12

[sinful moon]

lol I try

[pearl kindle]

wut

[delicate kite]

hahahha

[sinful moon]

Yeah I don’t think that checks out, France and the UK were the epicenter of deciding on UTC. All world timezone maps show France as being pretty all sticking to UTC

[delicate kite]

France said so not me

[sinful moon]

UTC is even like the weird french abbreviation, we’d have to re-order it to make sense in English

No one stated over-seas territories lol

Obviously pushing the deffiniton lol

[blazing granite]

I like it more when it as called GMt

[sinful moon]

GMT

THat’s a bit more of a British bias but yeah big foundation on what became UTC

[blazing granite]

yep 😂

[sinful moon]

if you can’t tell, time and date minuta is a subject I enjoy lol

[delicate kite]

Why?

[high mulch]

https://tenor.com/view/zoom-flash-ımwashıgıf-the-flash-zoom-gif-22240857

[sinful moon]

Because as I stated earlier, it’s completely made up by humans. There is no real way to measure time besides how we perceive and record it. Yes that may be true of many units of measurement we come up with, but so few are dramatically changed based on arbitrary political and human reasons (aka time zones)

[delicate kite]

They had ways to measure time even before modern times

Even in B.C

[sinful moon]

You misunderstand me

[blazing granite]

I've been many times at Royal Observatory Greenwich when I was living in London. I love the place 🙂

[delicate kite]

Do you mean time zones speciffically?

[sinful moon]

Even in ancient times, how we demarcate “time” is a purely human concept

[delicate kite]

Isn't like most stuff human concept?

[sinful moon]

Other beings may perceive time dramatically differently, despite us on the earth sharing day night cycles

[sinful moon]

Yes but that’s why I mentioned that last bit, so few of our percieved “facts” of measurement, are shaped by geopolitics. Usually a Meter is a Meter and a Foot is a Foot

But time is not the same time depending on how your federal or local government administrates time

[delicate kite]

After world war 3 it could be the same for everyone

[sinful moon]

Nuclear winter would not obliterate time as we know it. I get your meaning though. Ironically we already have this tho and it’s called UTC

Only hellish OSes like Windows don’t support UTC, every other OS uses timezone offsets from UTC to set the time

[delicate kite]

If China remains last one standing, I feel like they would want to keep their time zone

[sinful moon]

Windows uses local time based on your BIOS/UEFI clock to be the local time… and dramatically messes things up with the default US West coast time zone lol

[blazing granite]

I was in the Paris Observatory too, I love those places and libraries, one of my favourite places is The Trinity Collage library in Dublin 🙂

[sinful moon]

Gesundheit

lol not heard of it but it sounds web application based

[delicate kite]

What's so special about the last place?

[sinful moon]

lol

I imagine they just mean for you to extrapolate beyond the single tool but lol fair

[delicate kite]

How hard was it?

[sinful moon]

Ah totally fair then, but yeah I can understand your criticism

I do respect that though, indeed. But yeah lol can’t complain with Burp or PortSwagger much in the first place

[blazing granite]

amazing place

[delicate kite]

What kind of experience do you have overall towards the IT?

[delicate kite]

https://tenor.com/view/pikachu-shocked-face-stunned-pokemon-shocked-not-shocked-omg-gif-24112152

So fairly basic, gotcha

[sinful moon]

Yeah imho web application pentesting is much more difficult to me (at least the advanced stuff) compared to simple network exploitation and etc. But it all depends

Yeah that sounds pretty simple though

mhmm

[delicate kite]

I'm just getting started but that does not sound too bad so far

[split mulch]

Anyone have a good recommended operating system. I'm thinking to buy a 2nd hand laptop, and to boot a hacking operating system. I was thinking either Ubuntu or Kali, I use Kali more. But what do you guys think

[delicate kite]

Can never go wrong with Kali

[sinful moon]

If you have aspirations to use this for more than just hacking, then sure a Ubuntu based distro. If this laptop is 100% exclusive to hacking, then sure Kali

Never use Kali as a general purpose OS

[split mulch]

I can't on VM

new laptop ain't working

Bugs and issues

[delicate kite]

Too slow, or?

[split mulch]

Smt do with CPU cores and Ghrapics card

I deleted it anyways

[sinful moon]

Horrible security and opsec practice

[split mulch]

valid

[sinful moon]

The Kali devs say so themselves

[delicate kite]

Thought Linux was fairly safe compared to others?

[sinful moon]

but yes not root by default was one of the biggest improvements by default

[split mulch]

does unbuntu have root auto?

[sinful moon]

Security focused Linux is paradoxical like that, you are opening yourself up significantly to more threats by maintaining a large library of security apps and associated permissions to get them working

[split mulch]

I don't use Ubuntu

been using kali since 2 years

[sinful moon]

if you have a pentesting system, that should be its sole purpose

yes you can install some of these on your main linux distro, but you don’t wanna cross the streams too much so to speak

[delicate kite]

Interesting

[split mulch]

but it's not stable

Like it ain't even working on my laptop

[sinful moon]

The most cringe Linux question I’ve ever got… well one of them lol… was “how do i install Steam on Kali”

[split mulch]

Then help me lol

[sinful moon]

tl;dr freaking awful idea lol

[split mulch]

That's what I did

There is more than 2 ideas

[delicate kite]

Have you checked your bios?

[split mulch]

You said you'd check it out

[split mulch]

yea lol

I've done everything

[delicate kite]

Have you ?

[sinful moon]

lol yeah there’s so many simple steps you can easily google

[split mulch]

Yes

[delicate kite]

[split mulch]

no way!111

[sinful moon]

Okay so AMD-V and Intel-VTx are enabled and you’re still having issues. Alright what OS and VM platform?

[blazing granite]

indeed, that curiosity is the one that take people places 🙂

[sinful moon]

these are details we need lol

[split mulch]

sure ok wait

[delicate kite]

hahahahhahaha

[blazing granite]

specs, like ram plays big rol on virtualization too

[sinful moon]

Most importantly: what error are you actually receiving when failing to launch a VM

[blazing granite]

the point it's not just run it, it's run it and do something with it 😂

[sinful moon]

I’ve got a 1 GB RAM web server happily serving up three websites with one of them being WordPress+PHP+MySQL c:

professionally lol

okay that was a random brag, ignore me

[split mulch]

So, firstly, got fullscreen problem, I go full screen. Screen go black, I barely fix that, "Unsupported Hypervisor", gets me stuck on some terminal, need to reset, another problem, very slow, terminal runs after 3 seconds

SPECS

"RTX 4070, Intel UHD Grahpics"
"32 GB DDR5 RAM"
"I9 14000HX"

STEPS I DID

"Look google, look youtube, look at Task manager to look for weird stuff or weird proccess, look for storage issues, checked display, tried to force the use of RTX instead of intergrated grahpics, (Need passthrough, works with Hyper-V which requires windows 11 pro, don't have pro) ok, den I tried install CD Additions thingy, no luck" Even Ubuntu tweaking out, my whole VM tweaking. This is a new computer aswell, and I'm running only "Bitdefender" and "Internet Download manager" literally that's the only 2 programs I"m running

[delicate kite]

https://tenor.com/view/haha-kid-laugh-laughing-gif-10594705

[sinful moon]

What VM app are you using, you did not address this

[split mulch]

Bro

I don't have hyper-V

[split mulch]

VirtualBox

[sinful moon]

…okay so?

[split mulch]

I have VirtualBox

[sinful moon]

Gross application but we can work with that

[delicate kite]

OS?

[split mulch]

What would you recommend then

[sinful moon]

I’m not sure I want to derail this, but VMware Workstation Pro is free with a Broadcom account

[delicate kite]

What's wrong with that one?

[split mulch]

Gotta feeling I'm gonna have the same issues, is there a catch? like is it free forever?

[sinful moon]

But we’d be happy to support you with your VirtualBox issues, I’m just not sure I’d be able to provide a ton of support compared to VMware or qemu/kvm

[split mulch]

That's fine

I'm just looking to see, how I can fix this. It's weird

Windows 11, I already said

[sinful moon]

Oracle is awful, far right, and negligent about their software upkeep. They bought up companies and killed many products. I’ve had many issues with VirtualBox personally but I will not blame a user for trying it out

[split mulch]

I've been using it for 2 years now, but maybe it's time to switch

[delicate kite]

I'm pretty sure that's what most people start with

[simple valve]

1 core , 512mb RAM is the allowed cores for THM rooms iirc

[sinful moon]

Mind you, VMware is not much better after the Broadcom buyout, but is significantly more technologically sound than VirtualBox

[simple valve]

Unless it requires an increase

[sinful moon]

but again, we’d be glad to support your VirtualBox use case

[boreal scarab]

@sinful moon Should I wake up REAAAAAAAALY freaking early to catch the sunrise for a contest, or should I get the sunset?

[split mulch]

I need something working with my laptop lol

I did that a bunch of times

[buoyant tree]

How is it more technologically sound?

[split mulch]

Passthrough works with Hyper-V I heard, and it's not very practical. I heared that you'd have to redo the script everytime the grahpics updated

[sinful moon]

Have you used both of them in comparison? Especially if you take legacy OSes into account?

[split mulch]

well it's buggy, slow, and not full screen

when even maximizing the full screen in the VM

it just goes black

[blazing granite]

long story short Oracle sucks 😂

[split mulch]

BRO

YES

I ALREADY SAID THAT

[sinful moon]

There’s freaking community made NeXTSTEP drivers for VMware which is not the case for other hypervisors c:

[split mulch]

🐑

[delicate kite]

https://tenor.com/view/xqc-gif-22748016

[split mulch]

this is me rn

[buoyant tree]

Only thing that felt better in my case was the alt tab experience.

[simple valve]

Do you have a turtle icon in the bottom right?

[split mulch]

I don't remember saying that

[sinful moon]

Yeah Im getting way distracted by random convos but Hymnosi is right

[split mulch]

yes?

[buoyant tree]

Otherwise just a different UI, but I've only used a couple new linux distros and windows

[simple valve]

That means Hyper-V is running

[sinful moon]

Have you tested a Windows OS for sanity…

[simple valve]

Which means its slow

[sinful moon]

wait what, uh oh

[split mulch]

oh?

wait really?

[split mulch]

how can I fix this

[simple valve]

You need to turn off all related features that use Hyper-V

[split mulch]

in my system?

or in the VM?

[simple valve]

I don’t remember all of them off the bat

[simple valve]

Yep in ur system

[split mulch]

but I don' have windows 11 pro

[sinful moon]

To be fair I don’t think that’s entirely correct. You need some Hyper-V related features for Windows Subsystem for Linux to work, which will work concurrently with VMware

[simple valve]

What do you have?

[sinful moon]

I just don’t remember how much Hyper-V you can disable before that becomes untenable

[split mulch]

Windows 11 home, 32GB of ram, Intel i9 14000HX RTX 4070

[sinful moon]

ouch

nice specs, just ouch on the not pro lol

[split mulch]

bruh

so what now

why is this thingy tweaking

and not my 6 year old laptop

[blazing granite]

we're talking about windows, it's untanable anyways 😉 😂

[sinful moon]

Once you learn about Local Group Policies and etc, you won’t go back, lol

[split mulch]

what about with the 6 year old laptop

[simple valve]

Its probably the security settings

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/application-management/virtualization-apps-not-work-with-hyper-v

[split mulch]

I literally don't have hyper-v in my features section

[high mulch]

they're talking about your favourite OS

[split mulch]

nvm

[sinful moon]

Oh yeah, Device Guard and Credential Protection are using visualized containers of some sort iirc

[split mulch]

found this pwoershell code

"Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-Hypervisor"

would this fix my turtule problem?

[sinful moon]

I mean there’s a normal dialog for that

[split mulch]

I don't like turtules

[sinful moon]

Add/Remove Windows Features

[split mulch]

yea

[split mulch]

🐑

[sinful moon]

It would work but may kill any Windows Subsystem for Linux install you have

[split mulch]

what does that mean

I'm just running Windows 11 😭

I'm just running windows 11 as in the host

[sinful moon]

If you didn’t go out of your way to set up WSL, then don’t worry about it

[split mulch]

Don't even know what WSL is

🙏

[loud marlin]

windows

[high mulch]

never had issues with virtualbox when I had windows.

[sinful moon]

WIndows Subsystem for LInux lol

[split mulch]

Yea I don't recall doing that

[sinful moon]

I had constant issues and very bad experience with VirtualBox, but it helps I also hate the company

[split mulch]

@simple valve pls

[delicate kite]

Oh right if you delete the WSL linux you will also delete them in your VM

[simple valve]

I’m just spitballing now but I’m guessing you don’t have access to use Hyper-V but since security settings such as Device and Credential Guard use it

[rapid merlin]

This

[delicate kite]

[split mulch]

bro

how do I delete Device and Credential Guard

[simple valve]

You can disable those, see if it gets better

[split mulch]

I'm jk

[split mulch]

I'll try disabling Hyper_V

[sinful moon]

They’re in Security Center. They are somewhat VM containerized iirc

[split mulch]

using the powershell

[high mulch]

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off I think that was the cmd command

[split mulch]

I literally did that

0 luck

[blazing granite]

I used vb on w10 a while back and sucked big time. If I had to use one I'd go with vmware. Also after working with some Oracle soft I'm on the Oracle sucks team 😂

[sinful moon]

Obviously needs a reboot

[blazing granite]

I want to destory that turtle

[blazing granite]

just don't go ME 😂 😛

[sinful moon]

I was about to say 2000 but sadly VirtualBox doesn’t support it unlike VMware lol

Natively at least

Although to be a bit more fair VMware dropped support, you can just use the old VMware drivers

I'd like to see you say that having a physical Win 98SE machine you have to maintain in 2024 lol

[safe cape]

Hiya everyone!

[sinful moon]

Thanks, ironically was my Win 2K machine back in the early 00s, but yeah it's my Win 98SE machine for retro gaming these days

[high mulch]

omg, I bet that keyboard goes clank clank :3 luv it

[blazing granite]

How many microsoft engineers are needed to change a light bulb. None, microsoft makes darkness the new standard 😉 😂

[sinful moon]

Yeah it's actually anachronistic to the setup. I have a Dell AT101W there with Alps mech switches. This machine launched with Dell QuietKey keyboard which was just (decent) membrane

This is an early 90s keyboard for a 1999 Dell

[high mulch]

the more clickity, the more productive I become :)

[safe cape]

whats everyone up to?

[high mulch]

You reminded me of this post I saw on fb or instagram, saying "clean this and organise this" and it was a room so messy with bunch of cable mess...

one comment was like, "I got a map, and was told good luck", another one replies "you guys get map?". LMAO

[sinful moon]

Ah totally fair, I like my classical a bit more classical with the exception of Video Game music but I'll put it on the radar

I do have some up to about the 1950s and such

[delicate kite]

[safe cape]

Yeah if you ever feel froggy check out David Swick He is a Producer and Composer and its just blissful!!

[sinful moon]

Yeah life long goal of mine, to be clear I don't have an OSCP regular right now. I would love to have one

[blazing granite]

if you can find it, it's good 🙂 and I believe not expensive at all

[high mulch]

I'd love to have any cert rn. lol

[sinful moon]

Yeah extra AD stuff is a bit more my home turf

[umbral bay]

🥳

[sinful moon]

mhmm

Yeah I read up on the OSCP+ changes, I don't have many issues with it but yeah much less stakes with me not having regular OSCP already

[blazing granite]

@umbral bay 👋 how are you?

[sinful moon]

I imagine if I did have it, I'd feel a bit spurned by my supposedly lifetime cert being superceeded, but fair they gave it a new name and were transparent about it

[umbral bay]

Editing pages, hopefully done for the day. 😄

[sinful moon]

(to be clear an OSCP is still a lifetime OSCP, we just now have this OSCP+ tier)

[blazing granite]

you should have a drink after that for sure 😂

[sinful moon]

Also lol, I should just rename my account to "Tracer T" here lol

[blazing granite]

windows vista has a place in the museum of shite along with windows me and 95 😂

[safe cape]

@sinful moon Lowkey curious, what is your thought on browsers? any input on Opera?

[buoyant tree]

Rex's gonna respond with a qualified essay.

[wooden totem]

Win95 was clearly made in 1995

Whitewclueless

[safe cape]

Haha gonna have a PDF soon!

[blazing granite]

pretty big. google was founded on 1998, started to grow in 2000 and it kind of explode in 2004 as far as I remember 🙂

[delicate kite]

Missclick...

[sinful moon]

iirc Opera is using Blink now so it's just a Chrome clone. Who cares. Firefox is one of the very last independent browsers who haven't bowed to the Google Blink rendering future. It's bad for the internet for one company to have near total control over 40+ weird browsers

[safe cape]

sooo FF your go to?

[wooden totem]

Why didn't they just called it Windows 2

[buoyant tree]

irc. There's a new browser being made in rust from the ground up. No Firefox/Chromium

[sinful moon]

Yes I'm a Firefox main, and yes that's called Ladybird and spawned out of the SerenityOS project

[blazing granite]

w95 got all the hype because of the first microsoft graphic OS, but it was full of holes and got BSOD a lot 😂 it was still better than ME I'll give you that

[safe cape]

Ive been using Opera GX fora while now i like the bonus features of it and the built in VPN etc.

[buoyant tree]

No that was another one unless I'm mistaken, I saw it in a fireship video

[sinful moon]

What do you call Win 1, 2, 3.x, NT 3.x?

[rapid merlin]

Pfff you guys on windows11 or Linux I am still in MS-DOS

[autumn solar]

Say what you want about Microsoft, Win95 had an absolute bad ass startup sound

[sinful moon]

Honestly NT or not, 3.x is pretty usable and rad, just not as approachable as 95

lol let me share Win for Workgroups 3.11 runnin on my iPad

[delicate kite]

I tried GX in it's early days, seemed pretty mid at that point but I enjoyed using it's connection feature with your phone whatever its called

[rapid merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-ha-ha-ha-cartoon-gif-1868929648408760514

[blazing granite]

win 1, 2, 3x you have to boot on DOS and the start the win, w95 was the "first" graphic OS, project chicago, golden goose 😂

[safe cape]

Id give it another shot 🙂 Its been enjoyable for me. However, there are a few sites that for whatever just wont load out properly for my college so sometimes that blows.

[sinful moon]

False dichotomy, Win 3.11 largely ran on much of the same infrastrasture and more, before both handed things off to Win16 and Win32 runtimes respectively

[blazing granite]

DR DOS was the shit, back then 🙂

[safe cape]

Can we all agree F MAC?

[sinful moon]

I mean I could put win in my 6.22 autoexec.bat and yeah it'll just boot into Win 3.11 just like Win 95

using much of the same fundimentals

I don't mean to say that Win 95 is entirely based on DOS, obviously that isn't the case for Win 3.11 either, but they're not so dissimilar architecturally

[safe cape]

@sinful moon You have WAYYY more experience and knowledge then i do. My question is, is Apple really as secure as its claimed to be? or does it just have other vulnerabilities?

[autumn solar]

One of Microsoft's biggest mistakes is Windows building on the infrastructure of DOS for as long as it has

[sinful moon]

They lock things down to a great degree and from a personal standpoint expose personal information leakage (if enabled)... but it is not inherently more secure. It is more resistant to exploits than Windows but mainly because it's a less targeted platform. Just look at what Pegasus Spyware had done with iOS, and that's just for cases we're aware of

[safe cape]

im never gonna get through this Nmap cause i cant stay off discord chat... lol

[autumn solar]

Focussssssss

[safe cape]

I appreciate that, ive been busy about that and really wanted a inside look besides just random media stuff ya know?

[blazing granite]

maybe I'm not as knowledgeable as Eli but mac os has Unix based so it's more secure by nature, also the share of the market it's smaller so if you're planning for a virus or exploit you going to make it for windows that would make you more targets,

[sinful moon]

I won't lie, I did move to Apple devices for mobile and tablets after working in IT, but half of that was finally having the budget, and sure some of that a bit of extra security. But realistically, you're still vulnerable to the same threats if you're really up against a nation state level hacker... I mean that will never change, but if you're in that situation then already god help you lol

[safe cape]

haha yeah that makes sense from both of you.

I mean tbh, if someone wants to get into something bad enough they can and they will.

Im a firm believer there is always someone somewhere

[sinful moon]

To be fair both Windows NT and *nix largely comply with the US government's orange book security regimen and etc. But yes I do feel *nix is more effective in enforcing this

[safe cape]

if yall have never tried Banana Pudding Icecream... ITS A MUST!

I met ones on guy that he grew up with that stuff and his family use to have it on special occasions so it was his definition of fancy 😂

[blazing granite]

blue bell

[sinful moon]

ah fair enough

[safe cape]

Gross is my self controll and agruing with myself do i really NEED a 4th screen to be more productive... or do i WANT a 4th screen just cause why not... THATS GROSS....

[sinful moon]

lol do you have a vertical monitor yet?

[safe cape]

I have 2 Verticals on each end of my curve..

[sinful moon]

then you're more than set, no more

[safe cape]

But.. i think i want ANOTHER curve on top of my current curve...

[sinful moon]

no lol

[safe cape]

i know.. im sick...

[sinful moon]

lol

[safe cape]

But hear me out...

Hahaha

[blazing granite]

on the other side myself a sommelier that lived in Italy and tasted and knew the real fancy stuff we clashed a lot 😂

[sinful moon]

my SO has five monitors and he doesn't use them very effiencely, but fair some are work and some are personal

[sinful moon]

lol what does ice cream have to do with sleep walking... nevermind I think I answered my own question lol

[safe cape]

Thats similar to my current screen setup BUT i want to add another curve on top to fill the gap thats my excuse anyways

[sinful moon]

why tho

you have at least 6 contexts/views you can easily split up there

[safe cape]

But 8 is always better then 6 and because.. Why not.. Im telling you ive been agruing with myself all day since i got off work about ordering another monitor..

Ive gone as far as looking up complete IN WALL audio to mount around them..

[sinful moon]

I think even mounting it may be a pain lol

but fair enough

[safe cape]

I need you to do better at talking me out of wasting $700+ USD...

lol

[sinful moon]

In wall audio is a waste, just hit us up for audio recommendations

[delicate kite]

Are you 6?

[sinful moon]

all you need is a decent DAC if you wanna stick to wired

[blazing granite]

I had a similar set up when I worked as a tech support/customer service/online compliance/chat moderator for a webcam platform

[sinful moon]

brb somewhat, stepping outside for more goodies. You will come with me but without keyboard

[safe cape]

yeah trying to decide what i wanna do for audio cause i LOVE music and where my setup use to be in my house i had Ceiling Bluetooth audio etc. But i moved my setup to another area in my home and now i kinda wanna remodel and revamp this area.

[sinful moon]

I’m significantly more partial to headphone setups so I’m not sure how much I can help you there. But I did have a DAC/AMP which was both headphone and speaker amp. Was nice for the time. But was only a 2.1 system

[safe cape]

i tend to be addicted to changing my monitor setup, for whatever reason. Ive only had this setup and desk for like 6-8 months..

[sinful moon]

I am planning eventually to do a home theater setup but potentially after we move from out starter home

LG OLED in a small room actually packs significant bass so for once I’m not entirely worried about poor TV speakers

[safe cape]

i use to like headphones but due to past military experience i hate having things around my head and ears and the feel of not being able to completely hear everything around me etc.

[sinful moon]

Totally fair

[pearl raven]

All the military did for me was leave a loud ringing in my right ear lol 😛

[safe cape]

The ringing never stops... hate it.. lol

[pearl raven]

yarp

Haven't found anything to stop it either.

[safe cape]

And silence makes it a million times worse..

[pearl raven]

hence music, and headphones 😛

[blazing granite]

I had 4 screens, the main website, some randoms cams, the discord for independent models, the ticket software, the whatsapp for the studio's owner, our internal slack, etc too much stuff was going on 😂

[safe cape]

i have music going 24/7 i even sleep with music very very low when i go to bed.

[sinful moon]

Unfortunately that is tinnitus and will last firearms need to be used with hearing protection

[safe cape]

haha i love having a bunch of stuff going on at 1 time for whatever reason haha

[safe cape]

Yeah, if only!

Military gave me great training, Education and Bad Trauama with health issues haha

[sinful moon]

Yeah mainly know since my grandpa wasn’t so lucky in Vietnam, but even then he was only an MP so ouch

[blazing granite]

I don't mind, but it was a bit overwhelming sometimes, this was 24/7 the whole year round, rotating shifts.

[sinful moon]

Depends on my mood how much I can multitask honestly

[safe cape]

Funny story, my grandfather was a retired navy seal. One day i was over talking with him and i went to grab a drink walked back into the living room where we were just talking and almost died to a pair of scissors cause i accidently startled him.

[sinful moon]

Nooo no more drinks, gotta wait for the dashes to the doors

[safe cape]

Yeah i could see how it can definitely become an overload!

Haha Zumi is like i have plenty for rest the night!

[sinful moon]

Nice yeah my Grandpa was in the Sea Bees, the Naval Engineering Core, and later an MP

[blazing granite]

Also working with clients and customers around the world, so sometimes it was night shift for me but it was morning for somebody in Australia, crazy times

[finite basalt]

I started when I was maybe 7 and stopped when I was 17 but I would only say I'm half-decent, like I played maybe once/twice a week over that time

[safe cape]

I do enjoy a good Tom Macdonald song.

[fallen burrow]

[safe cape]

I have anxiety and a hate for the human race?

Nice, what movies?

Niceee classics!

[pearl raven]

Solid Choice!

[finite basalt]

I don't see a problem with it?

[pearl raven]

Aggressive take lol.

For OPSEC no, probably not.

Not my concern though.

[finite basalt]

Yeah I think for opsec it's not the best but if you've no need to worry about it then it's no problem

As long as they're aware of those risks there's nothing wrong with the pfp

[safe cape]

ALSO nothing about my picture states any information that isnt already listed to the public.

[finite basalt]

I wouldn't state that personally just because that's making it easier for people to do osint on you but yes

yeah of course

[midnight sorrel]

EHEHHEEH HAHAHA

I FIXED IT

[safe cape]

Cryptic cheers to you back m8

[viral crest]

Their mating calls are obnoxious to hell, I swear.

@sinful moon yeah, yeah....

[sinful moon]

lol indeed

at times this channel is a lost cause, gimme your tech stuff

[delicate kite]

Any idea if the learning paths are auto generated or hand picked?

[viral crest]

Last night I passed out on my office chair, in my room.
Good times lol
Hope a repeat tonight
🤣

[sinful moon]

Learning paths are hand curated and do not change per user

[delicate kite]

Just wondering since alot of the rooms linked in begginer path is in Junior Pentest path

[sinful moon]

erm, hopefully a more comfy sleep than that tho

[sinful moon]

Not sure where you’re seeing this from but yes, many beginner rooms are in the beginner path

[viral crest]

@delicate kite just keep at it, in a couple of months/ year's ( if you make it that far)
You won't know the difference.
Hence my drinking problem.
Maybe that was before.

I don't remember...
Cheers

[molten sky]

heard me

[delicate kite]

I'm on a begginer path, but "what the shell?" linked there is in jr pentest path, quite a few rooms have that

[sinful moon]

Have you done that room then, and especially the one that teaches you about remote shells via netcat and etc? I’d recommend it

[gray sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-meme-robbing-mask-black-gif-13268031

[viral crest]

@sinful moon my office chair is in my bedroom, I just hop over to the bed
Big smile fo sho
😄

[delicate kite]

Is that the "what the shell?" room?

[sinful moon]

probs

[delicate kite]

I'm trying to stay on the path without dipping to other rooms on different paths yet

[sinful moon]

they have one that detail reverse shells quite a bit

well if you are lacking information you may be missing some of the stated pre-requisites for the path, or elsewise it’s just more info you should know

[viral crest]

@delicate kite what the shell, yeah, your still in the intro.
Take your time.
This takes time.
Lots of matastaszisin.
Lots rest assure.

[safe cape]

@sinful moon What are you up to?

[sinful moon]

Being a bit crossfaded and chatting with you all, some of which in DMs lol

[viral crest]

I have never played that game in my life

[delicate kite]

What about fortnite?

[delicate kite]

I think its dead either way

[delicate kite]

[sinful moon]

okay I played LoL once but all I can say is LOL

[delicate kite]

hahah

Well League is hard

and toxic

[sinful moon]

no it’s easy just… yeah toxic indeed

Keep in mind Im a generation older than most of you all lol

[delicate kite]

How old are you ball park

[sinful moon]

30s

[delicate kite]

League is almost 20years old

[sinful moon]

Nah I invited it

[delicate kite]

Chivalry is dead

[safe cape]

Im close to 30 lol

[sinful moon]

And totally fair Zumi, but you’ve notably not been pressing me to try live service games lol

[delicate kite]

So what's your like go to game?

[sinful moon]

alright I’m going to step outside, I will be here but without a proper keyboard

[viral crest]

Im gn x
Way past 30

[sinful moon]

Yeah I’ve been playing Cyberpunk 2077 tons, in a great state at 2.0 patch

[blazing granite]

I wasn't able to sleep, tv show got interesting 😂 BTW I'm probably the oldest here 🙂

Failure of instruction not of the student

Turns out guns are dangerous

[loud marlin]

natural selection tbh

[delicate kite]

That gun weights more then her

[sinful moon]

No and she could properly balance the blowback with proper training

[molten sky]

ew 320 is ms

[delicate kite]

Maybe you should be

[molten sky]

no ms >

[delicate kite]

You going to teach her?

[sinful moon]

No? But I’m not the one to post this. The one who did made to look an untrained individual shooting a firearm look bad

[molten sky]

if that's a legit eo then it probably costs more than the gun it's on lol

90% of my optics are knockoffs lol

not like i'm shooting game at 900

[sinful moon]

lol I can assure you yea we love to shoot guns when given the chance

[molten sky]

lmao i didn't scroll up this far yet
bad teacher but still a funny video
hopefully she's the kind to laugh at it as well

[sinful moon]

Nah I do agree it was faked though.

Give it a bit more of a view and yeah she didn’t shoot anything

[molten sky]

eh, it's one thing if you pass em an autoloader (edit: autoloader =/= automatic) of some kind, but I can't imagine a pump or single shotty, esp if only loaded with one shell (as you should in this situation) being an issue

[sinful moon]

Not the first time this happened to me this week lol

[molten sky]

should only give em one shell in the first place to see how they react

there's a reason why i prefer to shoot in the woods lol

also easier to teach and introduce new shooters like that --- quieter so you can actually talk and not intimidated by the loud ass reverb of a shitty indoor place

[sinful moon]

lol my friends family and I killed a CRT down range on an Easter Sunday

That was a fun time

[molten sky]

surprisingly my experiences have been pretty good at those ranges, although I see those people quite a bit during the dove opener in PA on the state-managed fields

[sinful moon]

They um set the CRT on fire tho and whew CRT fumes, don’t breath that

The darkest smoke I have ever seen lol

[molten sky]

don't breath the magic smoke

i'll burn damn near anything but i do try to avoid burning shit like that with all the plastic

like burning a tire

[sinful moon]

Yeah even just incidentally it smells so bad

[molten sky]

we've burned mattress piles with less shit smoke

[sinful moon]

lol

[molten sky]

someone was using tracers weren't they lol

[sinful moon]

Meanwhile I’m just pew pew with my .22

[molten sky]

man i'd love a .22 mg of some kind. the only mg that you can afford to consistently shoot

(well, without staying a poor)

[sinful moon]

Yeah I’d love MP5/UMP/MP40 lol

[molten sky]

would like a true p90 if the NFA gets canned by the courts any time soon --- or at least the hughes ammendment

can't bring myself to buy a castrated sp90 tho

[sinful moon]

also yas, FN P90 is also one of my dream weapons lol

[molten sky]

if nothing else, just for the novelty of the feeding mechanism

[sinful moon]

mhmm, freaking wild

[molten sky]

o7

[sinful moon]

See ya! was great chatting c:

Are there even any bullpups with similar mags to the P90? I don’t think so but idk

the whole rotating thing is indeed wild

[molten sky]

i mean, other than the sp90? don't really think so

p90s? idk there's an s somewhere

[sinful moon]

yeah lol, can’t imagine too much application outside of such but yeah, kinda stresses what a super cool weapon it is

I will say though, frick fascists, but the MP40 is one of the best weapons of all time c:

idk there’s something in me that deeply appreciates the engineering and design of these guns, their utility, while kinda deploring how they were used IRL. Kind of conflicting, but idk guns look neat 🙃

[blazing granite]

Uzi FTW!!!

[molten sky]

speaking of facist and communist weapons and such... eugene stoner and mikhail kalashnikov met after things settled down and the soviet union fell and tried each others rifles and just did whatever --- funny to think of a conversation where kalishnikov is like you made money on your invention?

[gray sonnet]

That's why you don't hold guns like that

[sinful moon]

We pretty firmly established that’s fake
