Do you go to competitions
yes
Hivestorm 2024 my first event coming up next few weeks
Hacking competitions?
CCDC defends
They said defense so it’s prolly a defense competition
yeah its beginner level
I want to do a defense competition
They’re jumping over the firewall and attacking the mainframe
no active red team members, just CTF from a VM with issues
a lot of them are university online tho 😦
CCDC Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition
Firewall aint so tough when i climb it
some parts are
but i am uni student so
That sucks
Real
I punch firewalls with my bare fist
I love any kind of forensics, I love digital forensics, also I've read a lot about forensic anthropology and forensic linguistics
Gnu do you work in cyber
same in China, no one asks for your email address
onboarding on wut? :o
china is on wechat, sk is on kaokaotalk
i think japan has a lot of Line users but i dont know if they have a single platform with dominance like that
Lots of small companies in China just don't bother with a website either
Much easier to just have a wechat page

Digital forensics 🤝 DNA analysis
I now remembered why I might have chosen tech-chemistry lab course when I was in secondary school/highschool.
-> forensics
Anyone here play MC?
Oh come on Matt!
Halo MC?
Minecraft

I used to
no cuz I always die
Is proton mail good?
He jammin!
yes
Yes
I wanna switch from gmail
Copy cat
Cause my emails are probably being fed into an ai as we speak
lmfao
gmail for my normie persona
proton for my online shitposter persona

I would get nitro just for this emoji
I really need to get around to verifying so I can post tenor
I've got so many emails now I need to set up something like thunderbird.
Or does anyone use anything better?
What does thunderbird do?
Compiles all your emails into one app
Oh cool
So you don't need to check all your inboxes individually
Right now I'm checking like 4
proton will be number 5
I use mailspring, which does the same
mfw boss says "make this document more detailed" when it just means "put the same information in the document several times in different positions". 
the first rule of fight club 😂
Have you ever seen the fightclub Chinese ending?
If you don't want to read the article it basically ends with a black screen with the text "Through the clues provided by Tyler, the police rapidly figured out the whole plan and arrested the criminals, sucessfully preventing the bomb from exploding. After the trial, Tyler was sent to a lunatic asylum receiving psychological treatment. He was discharged from the hospital in 2012."
Yeah lol it's infamous
Hah you're lucky your boss and co-workers actually read your documentation 🙃
Elizabethhhhhhhhhhhhhh 🙂
Heya, what's up?!
Havent seen you in a bit i dont think
My doordash driver just now was awesome btw, he pulled up in a new Ford Festa hatchback when he was driving a MiniCooper previously, I made some comments about how it would be nice for rally and he was all in saying he wanted it rally tuned. Don't often see that in the US
Yeah I've been around and sometimes lurking lol
Just don't always have the energy for chat lolol
drinking G&T and eating lachmagine so I can't complaing 🙂
Nice nice, just some simple beer for me since I don't go too hard these days
Just uh some basic white midwestern b*tch Pabst Blue Ribbon 🙃
Ive heard plenty of people wanting to be F1 drivers but never a rally car
F1 seems neat but not quite my thing, rally is way way way more my motorsport of choice
Yes both require insane mastery of their vechicles but I enjoy how much closer rally is to extensively modified road legal, and just the insanity of the special tracks
I've heard a friend was selling lachmagine and I haven't eaten those for a few months so that's great
First I've ever heard of that food, looks like it could be neat
yeah looks nice for the most part
I love racing a little too much but i just dont have the money for a full sim
And yes rally is super fun
Heck yes, it is sadly deeply underappreciated in the US
I just play with controller shrugs lol
I could get a wheel and all that but that goes against the vibe in which I want to play these games, usually just relaxing after work instead of needing to setup the wheel and etc. I just don't have room for a permanant setup
lol especially for Euro Truck/America Truck which I love and while nice with a wheel, is far from required
My current one just has spinny clamps into the desk
way more of a chill-out game
Sr. dev looking setup lmfao
but fair multiple OLED screens in sight and etc. And nice just chilling in bed
Yea it's cosy if nothing else. I just want nothing to do with sitting at a desk after doing so for 8 hours each day lol
are you copying my setup? 😂 it's pretty similar
Here’s mine
lol I used to do the same back in my mom's house. Got into laptops, started using them just hooked to TVs and it kinda stuck. I still use this gaming laptop as a laptop but not extremely often.
dont your guys backs hurt not sitting in chairs
@rig nice rig bro
I have a wall and a nice pillow for my back 🙂
I provide lumbar support with a bunch of blankets to make a "chair" lol. I used to have one of those pillow armrest/chair things but it didn't do the job as well as just mushing up a comforter in the way that feels nice
You dont even know whats in it! But thank you very much
“nvm it fixed itself” lmfao story of my life
lol, also I'd call that cursed, but I clearly have my iPad in the above pic lol
Alright my friends are trying hard to pull me into VC in another server. I may or may not be back later
🔥
Nice chatting with you all as always 
To you as well
is C (C/C´++/C#) the best option to interact directly with the windows system?
How many reCAPTCHA do you have to solve in a row usually? I just had to solve 8 to be told my password is wrong. 
Meanwhile in phishing land, taking advantage of Captcha fatigue
lol totally not 1000% sus but the average person won’t know these key combos
still night for me
hihi
dude your set up is so cool!
this is some unique chair you got there ngl
Hoi
yea i have to work on my timezone ^^
I'm working a G&T 😂
actually the j is silent
Worst week as a regular member of #teamnosleep that I've ever had
yo thats sick
oh shit it's 2am -- thanks for saying something
Gave +1 Rep to @autumn solar (current: #1118 - 3)
off to bed i guess lmao
Np
almost 3 😛
lol I’m attempting to wind down but failing
here’s a bit I sent some of my friends. For context, I just got AirPods Pro 2 and do love them but they’re not my main. Over ear headphones are still my fave but this was just weird
lol obligatory single random red dot from screenshot editing, nice whoops
For further context, the picture I shared was the one from here today lol
But rip, chat is dead. I’m slowly attempting to wind down anyways
Morning 🙃
lol g’morning c:
Every women wishes that had a pocket big enough to hold a tv
I do enjoy your handle and blue team focus. Also yeah lol, that part was really weird, I’m not lugging around a 46” OLED with me lol
that's what she said 😂
Thank you :3
Gave +1 Rep to @sinful moon (current: #38 - 217)
ugh lol
Haha
Waiting for my kettle to Boil
I got my appointment today for my 24H ECG
still night here
Nice. lol sometimes I have dreams where I’m driving the car… but wait I’m in the back seat of the car and crash lol
It’s half 7 am
It has been a long time since I remember a dream
you're currently in one
Huh 🥲
It for sure depends on if you awake just after the current REM cycle and much more
My dreams really vary. Sometimes scary, sometimes I’m in heaven, literally.
if this is one it's more of a nightmare
No? Just me 😂
I don’t often remember them but when I do they’re notable lol
true that
I always carry a backpack
One summer in HS I actually did a dream journal and practiced um, what’s the word, interactive dreams lol. That’s not the word but you know what I mean
Lucid dreaming, that’s the word lol
It has been years, I remember because the last dream were parts in English, Hebrew and Italian 🙂
That was actually pretty rad. I did have a couple lucid dreams that summer
I still don't know what the dream about some war with anthropomorphic soldiers was trying to tell me 
It is kinda neat, because the theory behind it is, you have to recognize correctly that you are in a dream, nearly Inception style. Look for clock faces that don’t read the same twice, light switches that don’t work and etc. It helps especially if you check for this stuff in your every day life to re-enforce it in your dreams
I almost always know I’m dreaming
Doesn’t make them less scary though
You have to make decisions when you know you’re dreaming
You can train yourself to take control in those scenerios, but sure I’ve ran into plenty of the “I know I’m dreaming but I can’t do anything about it” as well
I have enough responsibilities when I’m awake 😅
lol totally fair
there’s a reason this was only a side project for one summer back in high school
it’s a pain to maintain a dream journal which helps you to better recognize your dreams and etc
any1 looking for a group session to solve latest CTF challenge or discuss it?
I’m not sure we are allowed
Generally we use the #room-help or #room-hints if you’re struggling with a CTF.
fr? i always share notes with my friends and i saw once a mod here going live solving a room and discussing it
can post LFG comments there potentially
nah im gd im just bored no insane rooms left to solve or smth so challenging
have you tried 2024 advent of cyber and especially the extra challenge?
LMAO
yea
looking for group lol
😅Yeah
theres one advent i didnt solve but i wanna try solve it in 1d no sleep but ik ima get banned if i did it so cant take that challenge
If you solved the extra challenge for 2023 advent of cyber you should kinda be all set, but fair the group aspect of that was fun
yea and got the badge
nice nice
whats ur rank elizabeth
Yeah I did AOC but probably only 3/4 of the extra challenge
mine is trash its 1533
lol I work in infosec professionally so I haven’t been keeping my rank up, mine is likely significantly lower
I can check
oh working in the field
i left the field from a year
cant do anth without it looks illegal and the market didnt understand the cybersec pretty much so back to software dev
Yeah no where close
and im doing pearson bachelor and pearson is such a ew
dam
I broke 10k previously but I haven’t been keeping up
i just solved everything free (10 rooms left ima solve em when i get the spark)
after 5k its kinda harder to lvl up
but after solving much rooms i noticed they all lowkey look the same
same techniques same things
I mean we’re both max level anyways, it’s only rank now which is kinda of silly
recently i solved osiris and took notes while copied the whole cmd if u want it
No thank you, I’m more than good
its the only premium insane room
I’d rather solve most of these on my own until I’m stumped and even then press on and continue until I actually reach out for help
its like a walkthrough duh
just need to organize it then i can post it for the community
yeah I’d rather not until I am stuck, thank you for the offer though
np
so hows the infosec market?
eh I’m at a small MSP where I’m basically both sysadmin, main infosec peep, main compliance peep and more, so in my own job, a bit swamped. I have even more roles than that but just small business things lol
what about the payment per hour?
sole Linux admin and despite me making manuals, only one who knows how our Linux servers work lolol
that’s a pretty frank question that not many are willing to answer but sure, I’m at $30.00 an hour, still low considering what I do, but they at least accounted for inflation mostly from my former pay
OH SORRY I DIDNT SEE THE .
no worries I know in some countries the , is a decimal place so I wasn’t sure
y its kinda low as a backend dev a bank offered me 120$ per hour and i declined their offer to focus on my degree
Yeah still this isn’t quite software dev, although lol devops is another role I’ve been pressed into and did well at
just do what u like if u aint struggling financially
Bit more tricky with some Mom’n Pop style MSPs like this but this is still orders of magnitude better than my $11 an hour working as a home health care provider
Nah me and my SO both have about equivalent revenue streams and we’re living in our first self purchased home
interesting keep up with the gd work ellie looking forward ur achievements!
For Millennials fricked over by both economic recession getting out of high school and then Covid in our 30s, I don’t think we’re doing too bad. Could be better but yeah
i should be coming to the US after 2y i just need to move to the UK first to study at oxford then im going to NYU
Although lol covid era is what got me this job in 2021
for my master degree
Ah nice nice c:
covid was nice since i like staying at home
and when i get out im just tipsy and kissing strangers
It kinda made me into more of a recluse lol, I’m not huge on it but oh well. I’m a very social creature
Working from home 800 miles away doesn’t help lol
i like the nature more than crowded areas
Nice situation though
its fun i worked with a startup and built them AI model and built their app front end and backend and when i went to the company i felt like a king
i miss school im about to finish my Bachleor degree in a year and trust me i wish i made more friends in school cause uni friends r lame or i just have high standards
Nice lol, yeah while I am more than an adequate scripter, I can’t claim I’m a full on programmer despite contributing to some projects in the past. Most were simple PRs
did anyone customize an OS?
lol one of the projects I contributed to had major relicensing drama the other week
I am in the middle of a bigger school project and i am stuck cause I don't have any company to collab with me 🙃
the project needs to be done in 2 weeks
Oh I sure did and still do, either XP visual themes back in the day or all my Arch installs since
Arch made me break my monitor
GUYS THIS SONG IS SO AAAAAA
I need a whole network overview of an already existing enterprise network, where I have to redesign and find flaws to make it more redundant/secure
I was sad when windows update would break uxtheme.dll patching all the time in Windows 10 and sometimes in Windows 7/8
I was working on projects too for my portfolio
As I had no previous work in the field
lol what
i will hit my friends and see if i can get access to smth and share it u need .pkt file?
i cant even remember y it seemed too complicated and i was new to linux
it surely didn’t “break” your screen though
i did break it with my fist duuh
you just didn’t have a valid xorg.conf depending on how long ago this was. These days it’s done dynamically, and besides more and more we’re using Wayland
idk it was in 2014
I need building plans, rack overview, a network overview of the whole setup, together with server connections etc.
even then xorg should have dynamically configured the proper settings without an explicit xorg.conf
that should be confidential i dont think i can get u that
yeah, that's the issue 😛
if could have just been xorg got some stuff wrong and you needed to correct it manually, but I doubt it
idk i was following a tutorial on a blog and ruined the whole thing and im never touching arch again
…from a blog
I use arch btw
i wanna teach my 8yo twin bros linux and make em do everything without a mouse but dk the right way
best just general Linux documentation there is, no qualifiers
or which distro i should get for me i just use Windows with Parrot in a VM
I mean there’s nothing wrong with that
turned me on
use what works for you
i meant im tryna make my twin bros geeks with IT
but dk how to start
lol I was replying to your Win + Parrot but sure
I know a great, free platform to learn cybersecurity
for me it was downloading cracked game in 2007 and had windows error then was amazed by how web works
its tryhackme duuuh
Bingo
I’m not sure there is a correct way to just instill these values in messing around with operating systems. Current gens are a different vibe where they sometimes don’t even understand filesystems and etc
so once they go to college they would be HIM
I’d just say using Linux, using Windows, using whatever traditional OS is actually the way
If they have the aptitude, they will push the limits naturally while trying to do what they’re looking to do
btw @mossy river i love how i share the platform like im getting paid
when someone asks me how u do this i say to get on track without being confused use this web dedicate urself one month and u would be great
we need language support tho
so what happened with me in a nutshell
let me be straight forward "i wanna force them to use linux"
im evil for this but they gonna thank me if they r into IT since they bother me with how u code that and see me winning hackathons
I mean you don’t need to do that but even just using Windows regularly would be a start. So many of these kids are trained on smartphones and ironically lack a ton of the knowledge we just got inherently by using such general purpose OSes
cut the how and start with teach me thats what i wanna hear
first thing i did to detox their mind is unistall roblox
Ouch lol
or they lose their internet connection
im not letting siblings get brain washed with cheap games
i monitor everything and blocked alot of things on the network so they can grow up right
but yeah so many of these kids are just trained that all files just live in a “bucket” under each app due to mobile security protections. Breaking them of this and showing them that filesystems exist is imho one of the more impactful things that can be done. That’s my largest concern these days
one of my bros learnt about trojan by having one on his phone
and thats y android shouldnt be allowed for kids
Just gotta remember that these kids were trained on iOS and Android and are not familiar with actual general purpose OSes
To be fair, they would have done the same on Windows as well lol
the way they touch keyboard piss me off if its not a screen they r slower than my 80yo prof
thats y they have access on a very cheap pc i learnt coding on
used to code on notepad
2009 type thing and i wasnt even 10yo
gah at least give them notepad++ if not VS Code
I UNPLUGGED THE WHOLE PC LMAO
you lost me lol
and told em it cant be plugged unless my laptop is turned on since they just watch funny yt on it
and they beleived it since i can build a circut that would do that or have a software that lock the pc and need to be unlocked from a remote pc
btw did anyone see network chuck video thats about distributing a pc to multiple users?
so all of them can use that one pc from diff devices
I just osinted myself and my deceased farther for a video I figured out he has a empty reddit
lol it’s called RDP or VNC
Interesting find and yep OSINTing yourself is such good practice. That is wild
My belated condolences
Rip
Fair Microsoft has licensing restrictions on RDP, which one unofficial terminal server device notably bypassed, but VNC will just werk anywhere. There’s tons more solutions to this problem though and it’s something we use in line of business quite a bit
Very long and entertaining video about a hardware card that arguably bypasses Microsoft’s RDP licensing : https://youtu.be/v8tjA8VyfvU?si=1vGmswuOL2a2xEpn
How did a company in the mid 2000s figure out how to cut the cost of computing six times over, and why haven't any of us heard of it? How did they work around Microsoft's legal limitations? Can it run Crysis?
I found this product for $4.95 at the local junk store and, as usual, it caused me to discover an entire universe of capabilities I'd alw...
iirc this is still 100% via RDP, but majorly messed with
trivial to do legally with proper Microsoft licensing but yeah lol
this is retro now unseful tech, don’t ban me mods <3
you got mute once a few weeks back 😉 😛
That was because I had the audacity to share another literally related to THM users Discord after another user asked for beginner resources. That third party THM Discord was oriented on helping to advise absolute beginners. I thought it would be the perfect resource.
But no, sharing any Discord at all will get you a one day mute, so be careful
I know I made that mistake once too, trying to help somebody else I posted the link to kali's discord and boom 😂
lol yep sounds about right. It’s understandable but even more harsh and infuriating when you were just trying to provide assistance
indeed 😂 but it's automatic and can't be lifted
Yeah they struggled with it for me as well, I think they did eventually find a way at around 18 hours
lol just more frustrating when you’re in the middle of advising a newbie and helping them along and then just… suddenly disappear
I would recommend the Discord staff to amend the #rules to clarify this, there is nothing in there that says you will be muted for sharing a (non-self promoting) Discord link.
bye people!!! I need to sleep a bit 💤
Good night, it was great chatting with you!
Wiki Wiki Time to School
Good luck!
lol just makes me think of when I’m bored at work, yeah half of the time I’ll just browse Wikipedia and others to learn. I’m addicted to it
If you all aren’t using Wikipedia Reading Lists on mobile, yeah get on that
They’re all stored offline no less and synced between your account. Super cool and addicting feature
Did I just get a virus? Or what did I get? I accidentally allowed a website in firefox to send notifications. Then it kept spamming NSFW notifications and even though I clicked "disable notifications from this website" on the popup they kept coming, then they were coming so fast you couldn't click the dialog box. Eventually I just disabled ALL notifications and they stopped.
How does a firefox notification continue after you tell it "disable notifications from this website"?
I really need to put Linux Mint on this laptop too. But it was hard enough getting Windows running. The hard drive needs proprietary drivers. 
how long ago did you disable notifications
its probably delayed
Linux mint is cringe. Use arch Linux
I'm not a femboy
Femboys use uwubuntu
It should be for good it just says "disable notifications from this website"
But srs it took me 2 days of furious goggling just to install windows on this HP laptop.
The intel hard drive uses drivers that intel doesn't provide anymore 
You have to dig through the forum to find a way to extract the drivers from an executable
And most of the forum posts are 404'd
So Linux will probably be even more of a pain on it.
That's a skill issue. Installing windows is not hard bro
You try to install windows, the hard drive doesn't even show up during installation what do?
dskprt can't even see it
Most of the time windows is already installed so why are you trying to install something that's already there?
A family member died and it was his laptop, we couldn't get into it so I just re-installed Win 10
I have installed windows multiple times lmao
I don't think you undesrtand the specific issue at play here and are trolling at this point.
GM
@agile flicker desktop or laptop
desktop
@agile flicker Well you may get any SATA SSD or if you have newer motherboard that support it you should opt for NVMe drive
where do I see which motherboard i got again?
read the manual for your motherboard
i think I lost it
Hi
use google lens to find what kind it is then
@agile flicker You can use Speccy it's a free program, it lists your computer specs
Itll be printed on the mobo or sometmes will be revealed thru sysinfo / dixdiag if ur lucky
@agile flicker there's also "system information" on windows
it's easier to do than to download some sketchy program
ok I oppend my system information
It ain't sketcy it's an industry standard
which one do I check?
google it
looks like you found it, good job
which one is it?
"baseboard Manufacturer" and "baseboard product"
morning(ish)
I lost it
no you didn't cause it should also be on the manufacturer's website
@agile flicker it supports m.2 drives
giant ass cpu wth lol
read the fucking manual. It'll tell you
where do I see its manual??
the info on the site is enough to tell you
@agile flicker it would work
Computer
Thanks, and how do I transfer my data from my current SSD to the new one?
omg, just google bro
lets say 400gb?
12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400, 2500 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s) would U say I would need to upgrade my processor?
idk do you?
Well, it runs good. But i'm looking to upgrade something
U think a RTX 3060 is good in 2024?
not future proof
alright, sorry.
U think I should upgrade?
nvidia GPUs are not that great for the amount they are. Just buy an AMD or intel GPU
if youre upgrading, should probably upgrade enough to last you quite a few years
of course if you dont need it, you can stay on mid for a while
U think a 4060 8G Would be good?
how much is it?
348.61 US
no
3060ti better for price
buy an AMD rx6600xt if you want something with 8GB of vram
does it run better?
much cheaper
I think I may have a Ti
not much difference I think
you should be concerned about the amount of vram not really all these fancy ass clock speeds
amd is kinda better for mid levels yea
I got my rx6600 for like 250USD
i found my manuals
@agile flicker what needs do you have
weird ass question my bad
what do you need ur gpu for
Well I mostly play games, I want to be able to run lets say Cod on 200 fps
currently i run with 100-120
does your monitor even go that high
Yes
what about graphics, 1080p, 4k... ultrawide
system information
I cant find it there
Is that the exact model?
alright
53c hot for downloading?
good morning everyone
thanks for the help
I wouldn't be upgrading 3060 until I could get a 4070
alright
lol keep your 3060 for a while unless you’re really struggling
I’m extremely happy with my laptop 3070 which might as well clock to the same specs as your 3060
Im on the generic school laptop that I got to keep for fixing 😂
I wish I had a 3070 laptop
I wanna share too
what is this
half joke
uhuh
also lol never ever play older COD games online, every single one has unpatched known RCE
really crappy of them to not have addressed this
what did you think it meant?
Gave +1 Rep to @sinful moon (current: #37 - 218)
No problem, yeah it’s kind of insane. Let me see if I can find a write up real quick
I was gonna say a joke, but the /hj is honestly stupid on its own already
that was in like bo2 not any recent ones I think
🥲
no offense of you using it in good faith
offense taken /j ☠️
Heya, so I couldn’t send my former message because I linked to a Steam guide with POC which was understandably blocked. But yes, POC for retro COD is more than out there and a huge concern. Do not play them online
Huge thank you to Jabba for working this out so expediently
mhmm, that is more correct
I’ll just say I have seen YouTube videos of people being exploited in real time in COD and it was wild
is anyone having trouble with the attackbox losing connection?
It was blocked because of all the phishing
Oh I bet, kinda wild how much Steam, Discord, and similar CDNs are abused for such
how did that happen?
damn I wasted 4 hours watching youtube instead of doing productive shit, happens too often man
I think they were responding to me potentially
Wow it is not a dumpster fire here for once at this time :3
ohhh my bad
yall have a nice day everyone that is reading this
Have a good day too!
There's still time...
thank you, you as well!
Gave +1 Rep to @wooden totem (current: #296 - 18)
Nuuuuuu
lol this sounds like me, but honestly most of my YouTube can still be considered productive with most of it being like tech informational, despite me feeling like I wasted all that time
Whats your favorite tech channel?
4 hours of retro computing? Let’s go, but yet yes I did learn things
That’s a difficult question because my tech is split up into like retro tech, modern tech, infosec, and more
retro tech is easily LGR but that’s a no-brainer
although honestly there’s a ton of more deep hardware/software channels I enjoy tons as well
feel free to list them if you want i need to be more updated on tech related things
and ofc thank you for sharing
Oh god if I listed them all it would take all day lol
DANG
Let me see if I can make an abridged list
Hi
Uh...
They’re onto you
👏 Get 👏 Off 👏 And 👏 Enjoy 👏 Italy 👏 
I’m flying back
Oh.
Omw to Milan
Dis you?
Don’t have LinkedIn
I know.
So, you flew back to England from Italy, and now you're flying back?
Si
(Got to let everyone know I am now Italian)
Boooo
My son wants a VR for xmas, I may just need to get myself this one too.
lol and that’s just my retro tech focused ones, the ones in italics (whoops) are the ones I find to be especially notable
fair enough, he did ask for it lol
beat me to it
thanks a lot
Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 2815)
If anyone would still like that list on good retro tech focused YT channels, you may refer to this image, if that is not a concern
The issue wasn't the content, it was just the space it took.
Yeah understandable lol
I kind of warned him as such lol
like I subscribe to way too much on YouTube and that was a pain to parse out, but also somewhat fun
Thanks I will look into them :D
Gave +1 Rep to @sinful moon (current: #36 - 219)
No problem!
I’m just glad Discord finally supports Markdown bulletpoints, but fair that’s been a thing for a couple months now, just not had to use it much
it reminds me of obsidian
yeah Obsidian uses Markdown as well indeed
<333 obsidian
Yeah it’s great, I personally moved onto Logseq for work purposes but I still appriciate Obsidian a good bit
whats retro tech?
it’s what it sounds like, tech that is likely older than your self or older than 20 years
so like radios really old pcs and stuff?
learning about it can still be extremely relevant to modern tech if you want to be well rounded
Me.
BRUH IT TOOK ME 5MIN TO WRITE THAT
I know..
lol PCs as old as I am? Yes sometimes. But remember Kerberos, Active Directory and more were introduced with Windows 2000, and only just now NTLM has been depreciated for Kerberos 20 years later
yea with ur name that tool is definently not getting used for legal purposes lmao
is it not allowed to write smth like this?
the purpose is tryhackme is to teach and spread awarness
that sounds interesting
Nope, I was just about to address it.
Please don't advertise your own tool, and request donations.
and im looking to create smth with ppl whos willing to help
R.I.P
This isn't the server to do that in.
bruh my name is cause of an MC era small servers be leaking ips then i go over wireshark find em then make noise it was smth b4 4yo
i do apolgize truly then
Yeah you’d be surprised at how much legacy tech is still flowing through business networks, it is a concern and learning about this old stuff does help understand it somewhat. But honestly I’m just there for the retro computers and etc
Appreciate the understanding.
if i made the tool alone can i post the source code here?
No.
nw mate we r mature enough
sounds like a pretty cool vibe ngl
would this help someone with illegal purposes?
...You'd be suprirsed.. 
It possibly could.
But to be fair, I still maintain this Win 98SE system 
sorry its im kinda brain washed thinking knowledge communities would want to do help
its our lovely member and mod @hasty sand (sorry for pinging) spread awarness on his instagram and i appreciate ryan to the point i got my parents following him to understand stuff from him so when i explain what i do they get it
You need to learn the basics before you can advance to potentially malicious material
its grand legacy 
Spreading awereness is good, however I wish to ensure the safety and protection of our members.
then in ur opinion how could i contribute to the community not just this like the whole world while making sure its not going for illegal purposes
For all I know, you could be creating a tool that OSINTs members and releases their info
thinking about it rn it would be easy to modify the code and automate scan over ur neighbor network with adapters or run a scan for pentration testing purposes
Provide help, assitance and advice.
Not creating a tool that does god knows what.
But for that you'd need permission, in the form of a signed, dated contract.
it would be executable file and goes by clicking options
a magical app potion has appeared, do you take it?
Yeah that’s completely an issue, plus we can already do vulnerability scanning with existing tools, so I’m not sure what your goal is
i think id ask Microsoft for it
legally approved scope being the operative concern here
i worked with em for 3 months intern
Microsoft doesn't own your neighhbours network?
maybe it could be a new addon in windows
nah meant an addon to scan ur network
wut
So...
yk the drill
firewall go brrr
why would microsoft support an enum tool?
enumeration is not helping consumers
Defender of today, isn't the Defender of yesteryear.
idk i just got the idea and dropped here so i can make a group and discuss it
i mean its a lovely discussion im taking any constructive feedback
We've discussed it, and told why it's a bad idea.
just freaking deploy OpenVAS (Greenbone Community Containers) in Linux via Docker and scan only the IPs you are approved to scan for vulnerability testing
thats a real word what
pardon me if any misunderstanding happened sir
19th century type word
so yestermonth is a word?
like we have these tools, we don’t need Microsoft to invent them. Consumers would not heed any warnings about these vulnerabilites any more than Defender
just like yesterday is
understandable and noted

Yesteryear, Overmorrow and ereyesterday.
why isnt last day being used like last year is
yeah if you wanted to discover open ports I'd just go to NMAP
whats the two more words?
In one fortnight, oh wait, that’s not going to be questioned anymore
yall wanna learn russia it seems easier atp
ereyesterday = Day before yesterday
Overmorrow = Day after tomorrow.
but another term that was similarly obscure
im just gonna automate that yk
option 1
option 2
etc
braindamage
Morrowyear
thats sounds so weird in english, in my og language its a perfectly normal word for both though
I mean again if you want mass vulnerability scanning, use a vulnerability scanner. OpenVAS and Nessus both literally use nmap
whats ur mother language if ydm answering
Slovenian
if you want very very mass scanning then yes there’s massscan or whatever but you’re not doing vuln scans at that scale
I'm geetting close to using Nessus but what's OpenVAS?
yea i just wanted to automate all these scripts
OpenVAS is a fork of Nessus before it went closed source, it survives as OpenVAS and is maintained by Greenbone. They have somewhat rebranded things
@sick lance can we get the funniest of this month badge?
ima be a clown for a month
you can either install OpenVAS via Kali package management or just deploy the Docker Compose based containers on any Linux system
Something to put on my to-do list.
can anybody help me with a private room related to smb exploitation?
No sorry.
Two's day
Business or educational account?
in a ctf program,they given a private room for boot2root.
Oh, that's even worse.
We can't help with external CTF's that are active
ok.can you tell me what to do when the smb password bruteforce using hydra failed due to smbversion
You should really speak with any team members or seek help from the leaders of this challenge if you are having issues frankly
No problem, we just can’t help with it being a private educational activity
Maybe someone could help with my issue
I can't get out of bed
Is there an application for that?
ur best bet would be☕
yes, sleeping on the floor
helps getting out of bed 10/10 times
Lol now I got options
actually I wonder, why not
I’d suggest potentially rolling out of bed, but that is fraught with potential difficulties including landing on your face. I’m sorry, I don’t think there’s a patch or a hot fix for that
Why we can't help?
yeah
Really?
Really need this fixed in the next update
you haven't seen the PR yet?
alr maybe not in this scenario, but in general
I added one to the issue last night
The user could be sitting an exam, having an interview.
This could literally give them the "edge" on competition.
If they could just finally fix the hickups bug I’d be happy
Which would be unfair to other candidates, and could also land somebody in a position they're not qualified to be in?
LGTM get it merged
wouldnt it be kinda similar to googling
That's self research.
Not getting the answer handed to you.
"How did you solve this?"
"I used X,Y and Z."
"And what do these do?"
"I dunno, somebody on Discord told me to use 'em"
alright that makes more sense, thanks for explaining
No worries.
If it's exam papers, and they found out that a quesion(s) were leaked online and asked, the exam board would void the full paper for everybody.
Even people who've passed.
that's fucked up
Try doing yoga.
It's the rules.
You can't prove who cheated and who didn't.
Yeah it’s a completely sensible policy
I didn't mean its not but that hard work gone to waste is messed up.
@rotund stirrup
Please don't DM without asking.
as for your issue, no, you'll need to email support.
Thanks
How so? There’s no waste, we’re intentionally not “contaminating” or contributing to any academic results. These should be affirmed by one’s own basis and learning.
It would be even more wasted if a student attended all classes, done the work and revised and earned their grade.
Just for somebody to be lazy and try and cheat theirself to a better grade.
It wouldn't be fair to the people who worked hard and didn't get the answers off the internet, passed, and then had to do their work all over again.
That's why it comes down to "Can't prove who cheated and who didn't".
If we helped we’d be that “special buff” which you may be complaining about
I also get that but R.I.P to the ones that did not. And yes, we shouldn't be helping them to avoid that scenario.
How to make university fun?
Feels like a bit of miscommunication I agree with all your statements but feel bad for those that didn't cheat.
You should never need to actually cheat to actually get ahead in these classes, that’s just a wrong way of thinking about things
self learning and search is not cheating if this is allowed in an exam, they need to use their own resources and knowledge to find what they need. That is not the same as asking people in Discord to do this step for you
you may as well be using chatgpt then, close to the same thing as just asking for the answers. (ofc thats also cheating and would be a no no)
Good luck using that effectively for infosec and without hallucinations
Doing prompt injection to cheat at a test is significantly more effort than just doing the actual work lol

I will say I don’t understand the pushback on this, but fair enough you do you. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask students to do their own work and independent study
I’d even say their own independent study before hand can and should be bolstered by multiple sources like actual reports, sites, google searches, chatgpt requests and more, but it’s up to the actual human to synthesize these answers into something consistent and not wrong lol

lovely
what did i start
built a pyramid
imma fucking dieee, got an appointment to remove all of my wisdom teeth without being knocked out
RIP
also google is not doing a great job of calming me down lol
I mean on the plus side you will be chilling with some premo pain killers temporarily. It will hurt and will not be fun but you’ll likely be in a state where you don’t feel it and won’t care
For sure not for the surgery, but even so for the follow up depending
hope you took off work for this or whatever though, for a couple days
Imma leave as House the way I'll be requesting vicodin
just finished with the Snort rooms, gotta say out of the SOC path so far, Snort had me struggle the most but I've learned how to use it as an IPS/IDS tool and managed to complete the challenges with ease, I call it a win 
It’ll likely be Codine, or whatever, a significantly less potent opioid. Don’t go crazy on it and use as prescribed. This is for you to recover
All I’ll say is you’ll be kicking yourself if you run through it too quick and no way will they approve more so fast. Be smart about this dangerous substance
Yeah I take health seriously, just making jokes while I still can cus I cant imagine I will be in a mood for that later lol
Nice stuff for sure, yeah some of those blue team rooms are very rewarding, especially for practical experience for us who are a bit more blue team focused
Totally fair, but for real good luck!
Bro
Why not being knocked out
Because medical technology has advanced enough that we can use better methods to avoid anesthesiology when possible
Thanks man!
Gave +1 Rep to @real minnow (current: #2237 - 1)
There are actually risks and concerns to anesthetizing someone, to the point its a whole medical field in and of itself self
not worth extra risks for avoiding "mild" discomfort, all of the pain is supposedly after the anesthesia wears off anyway
Potentially it’ll just be the laughing gas or something but I think they did away with that too for similar reasons. I guess you will see, but I would not worry about it, these people are professionals
I hope they dont miss any spots or else my soul is leaving my body on the chair
Anesthesiologists are paid a shit ton per hour because they need to be really good at their job
It’ll very likely be targeted anesthetic to your gums
I think gas is for people that like to twitch or move
nah the gas back in the day was for everyone and lol it made me twitch and move more
I think I moved my tongue into the drill bit more than once while I was waggling about lol
man when my dentist is doing anything im frozen, im in a different dimension, I only see light. Isolated from my body
When I got my removed I got knocked out
you got marked as "a little bitch" then
Realistically you will see and I don’t think it’s helpful to get too worked up on “what if”s, it is an extremely routine procedure
joking lol
Nah I got you, wasn’t in response to you. Just the general vibes of reassurance
It will vary greatly depending on the country and health care providers and more, it won’t be easy to calculate
even in the US alone
Anyways lets see how project “power through the night after a nap and into the next day” proceeds
is the learning path down for everyone or just for me?
probably inadvisable at my age but we’ll make it work lol
Which one, it’s working for me in US East
https://youtube.com/shorts/GEt1rbWqXp0?si=9naH8bPD7FSkEQcT
Just gonna drop this in here 👀
He just needed to wait a little longer...
I’m um not going to watch that
once i click on the learning path i get redirected to https://tryhackme.com/r/not-found
yup
It may be that a local AWS CDN is down for you
That’s more waiting on Amazon than THM unfortunately. And yep np!
What's everyone up to?
Which learning path?
#site-support please.
Not much myself
Sounds exciting
It's really not that painful
I've had four
😂
But same here don't even know what to do
Anyone finished the updated SOC lvl 1 notice the date is not updated?
from the certificate image?
For me it still shows the old date
I see thanks, not really a big deal
If you want you can send a message in #site-support to see if you can get it fixed
@sick lance
Bro cooked
What do you mean, account recovery?
I don't understand you kids
Bro did not cook with that statement
Skibi dop dop yes yes
what the sigma ? bro definetly ate skiibidi toilet 😵💫
Where did you get this video of me?
I'm the one that pushed you
CORRECT
what would be harder to privilege escalate a windows machine / linux machine ? lets say they both updated and well configured
You probably made Bill cry rn*
Windows imo
@boreal scarab what have you done!
😂😂😂
actually it's vanguard anticheat driver that broke
Nah, I was breaking your machine all along. I broke that driver 
Can't cheat if you can't play
@boreal scarab
It happens 🤷♂️ glad that I’ve infected your feed lol
TBF they are good interviews
I did greatly enjoy you explaining that high-end poison cable to one of the hosts
Mine too!

There is some room for other creators that create content for those who are not into cybersecurity or beginners!
How are you, James? I am out of the country so service has been pretty bad but I figured I’d pop in and say hi.
Ryan!
You were gone?
how you doing my friend?
Doing very well dodging venomous/poisonous creatures all day but other than that life is great. How about yourself?
i mean, i was inactive
Ah, didn't notice.
Saving lives and stopping lies 😎
jk jk, doing pretty good, currently working on a school project and some other work stuff, so been busy busy
2mib/s out here
That seems logical, but it’s too late they are already uploading 😂😂
fair fair 
On vacation? Enjoy!
😂
can anyone help me with cheat sheet for splunk hunting
@hasty sand
I have a question for ya. Do you guys use any specialized OSINT OS's when conducting... well, OSINT?

Finally got that hospital appointment over and done with 🙃I left looking like a cyborg
I want a treat after that
Is anyone studying this evening ? I wanna watch some work stuff
It's pretty funny - you're just talking about stuff that we chat about here all the time, but the presenter is getting properly freaked out. You're just like.. fully chill the whole time.
@glass nest 👀 I have industrial control stuff coming
In a good or bad way?
Building an ics lab, need to find something to control. Debating making a bar bot
Cute floofy spider
Good thanks! Finished an ics hacking course today
Gave +1 Rep to @hasty sand (current: #49 - 163)
James - Wasn't Muiri making a bar bot?
I don't think so?
I think he is a bar bot?
Might have been when I was talking to him a while ago when he got into woodwork ansd I was looking at a beer auto-pourer embedded into a table
I miss you
Glad 
1 hundred trillion crazy
What is bitcoin jungle
any blue teamer or anyone could help me?
Have you checked GitHub
You could make an oven?
Like they do for the SANS demos
I guess lights, heater, thermocouple/sensor, door open/closed, fan
Less interesting
Hio
Hello
hi
it's still a dope concert. Combines ROCK!
so far, so nice...
ricing it wild style
hyprland si indeed nice to play with it

It was just on my mind as an easy demo and you get a pcb oven out of it lol
I'm getting work to pay for one, I'm building myself another one
The relays are rated for plenty, so pretty flexible
check dm
Dragos actually has a brewery attached to their ICS Range
I wish I could get away with that, ideally I want to build portable
Yeah, theirs is not portable 
hi guys! is there a free trial?
can relate...
hey @naive violet how did u learn rf stuff? asking u because ive seen u help ppl (including me) with it
Wtf is youtube doing? They removed "Add to Watch Later" from the video recommendations under the current video you're watching on mobile
Yazee, my company want to implement my logdata_analyzer 🤝 . Found the right team 😍
don't watch it later. Watch the algorithm's slop pipeline instead. we're sure you'll (*our advertisers) will prefer it
Not here 🤔

Hi Zumi I just want some career advice.
wanna join hacking group?
sure,
Do the group members have any working professionals?
@naive violet talking of radio, any recommendations for automation of 433.92MHz blasters over WiFi? Might try and DIY one myself, it'll be outside so has to be weather proof
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005402643154.html
Something like this
But standalone
https://www.gateremotes.co.uk/product/came-top-42fgn-806ts-0300/
This but over wifi
So if it's just OOK I wonder if you could get away with a CC1101
I'm not sure if it's rolling or not, the receiver device is very old so probably not?
You can get small cheap IP67 boxes and some cable entry grommets.
Antenna waterproofing is more of a challenge - N connectors and self amalgamating tape are your friend if you want to be able to take it apart to maintain it
I mean more the modulation than the protocol but yeah
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/27530754183
Something like that?
Cc1101 is the same that's used in the flipper and they're pretty cheap. That and an ESP8266 or pi pico W imo
Link dead jayy
Yeah something like that
That does all the RF, then the esp does the wifi etc
External wifi antenna would be recommended, if it's far from your house (ie outdoors)
Okay perfect, Pico+esp+that
