[chilly veldt]

reason why I always have a backup user for people who just want to look

that user has no perms to change stuff

basically read-only user

[devout palm]

I don't have friends, i guess that's a good thing

[boreal scarab]

He uploaded a very large file to the game server, which fucked up my VM that I had to go in and delete that file

I told him, in all caps, to not move anything onto the VM ever again lol

[chilly veldt]

skill issue

[sick lance]

Or deny access, so it doesn't happen again.

[boreal scarab]

[mossy river]

Does this mean you shouted at him or you messaged him?

[sick lance]

Good cyber security practices start at home.

[chilly veldt]

victim blaiming but still, you knew better

[pearl raven]

Likely yelled at them while typing.

[chilly veldt]

literally taking the CKA exam and you mess up like that

I just got contacted on LinkedIn by a sans person wanting to invite me to a CTF

winner of the CTF gets a free SANS cert

[mossy river]

Free SANS cert as in you get the cert or you also get to do the exam

[boreal scarab]

He's not awake yet. So, messaged him right now, but I'll rip him a new one later lol

Shut it Bella lol

[chilly veldt]

[boreal scarab]

[glass nest]

Ok. Tinfoil hat time. I was on the phone with a co-worker earlier and the signal was fine. Has been all day. I call up a certina co-worker, but it goes through to voicemail and the outgoing message was all crackly and stuff. I assume the voicemail doesn't have anything to do with the physical handset. Would this be evidence of planned obsolesance?

[sick lance]

Did you save it, or save as a copy?

[glass nest]

Next phone call, clear as a bell

[boreal scarab]

Save what?

The pic?

[sick lance]

No, the song.

[crude stump]

Hm

[sick lance]

Obviously the image...

[silver sky]

Yes I've been listening into your calls. I am your assigned GCHQ agent

[glass nest]

To be fair, that co-worker is remote, and is in a kinda rural area

But the voicemail shouldnt be crackly

Hex - So.. you work in bude? Awesome!

[crude stump]

Idk about you but whoever I get voicemails they are always dogshit

[boreal scarab]

Maybe it's a copy, maybe it's not. Wouldn't you like to know

No exif data

[silver sky]

I funnily enough got approached by a recruiter for the NCA

[silver sky]

Discord strips it anyway

[glass nest]

It wasnt the voicemail, it was the 'This is the 02 voicemail...' message

[boreal scarab]

Still like posting with stripped exif

[silver sky]

O2 need I say anymore

[glass nest]

honestly, the other ones are fine.

For the sim only account which most us have, it's only like £12 a motnh

how do the shirts on the swagshop fit? because sometimes youll have it that for example an L fits like an M. Do any of you know perchance?

then i can also order my shirt

[sick lance]

My M fits like an M.

[chilly veldt]

you do know that revert data is not exif data and therefore does not get deleted, meaning that you can download an image and still revert it

[sick lance]

My M hoody could be slightly bigger

[boreal scarab]

It's not a W for Wombo?

[silver sky]

My 3XL shirt fits like a 3xl

My hoodie could be bigger tho but it's old

If it was W, it would obviously be for Winner.

[boreal scarab]

Got my coffee... now to figure out my disk problem

I wish you good luck and may you not get grub'd

[boreal scarab]

That's what clones are for! Create a new clone of the main machine. Test crap, then delete it

https://tenor.com/view/stonks-up-stongs-meme-stocks-gif-15715298

[chilly veldt]

you mean
Create a new clone of the main machine. Test crap, then accidentally delete main machine

[boreal scarab]

Absolutely!

[jolly wedge]

are they some group of people to talk with and improve together on thm ?

[worn thorn]

did that with kali once. Luckily I had my notes somewhere else

[boreal cosmos]

bro I lost mine .. and since then I never made notes again

[boreal scarab]

Yah, never messed with changing disk size on linux machines before, let alone, encrypted disk drives

[chilly veldt]

just remove encryption, resize and then encrypt again

ezpz

takes like 10 minutes

(I've done it 5 times)

[boreal scarab]

10 minutes turns into 5 hours and 20 shots of whiskey

That's an idea though, time to learn how to do that!

[chilly veldt]

because you don't drink while doing stuff

[boreal scarab]

If I drink, nothing would get done lol

That's for AFTER

[peak whale]

yea , too tired to do anything else, so twitch in the background and drinking coconut water and watching the bitcoin chart

just chillin

[boreal scarab]

You can do that on full disk encryption?

[lament tendon]

You can liveboot and then get rid of the encryption on the other disk, yea.

[loud marlin]

luks or ?

[lament tendon]

You should be able to remove or at least decrypt a your full PCs disk through a liveboot with LUKS, veracrypt or truecrypt.

[boreal scarab]

Yah, LUKS

[lament tendon]

Required effort may vary tho.

[loud marlin]

then i think yes. yu can remove it

[lament tendon]

For LUKS1:

cryptsetup-reencrypt --decrypt <device_path>

For LUKS2:

cryptsetup luksChangeKey  --pbkdf pbkdf2 <device_path>
cryptsetup convert --type luks1 <device_path>
cryptsetup-reencrypt --decrypt <device_path>

[loud marlin]

knowing matt... this will not end up with no issues

[lament tendon]

Make sure you backup your data before you do this.

no matter what I always go XL

[oblique loom]

What's the discount code of the day?

[eternal timber]

Time to make up stuff in the 20 mins before class

[teal wharf]

L is always best

if u are not skinny and same time not buffy

in other words above fit a bit

[oblique loom]

I am neither fat nor skinny so it should be good!

[lament tendon]

Why not just check that sizes of what you already have at home?

[oblique loom]

Cuase different clothing companies have their sizes a bit different. One L t-shirt from this brand may not fit the same as a L tshirt from another.

ALso I wear M to L depending

[lament tendon]

True. But if you have mostly M at home, M will likely be the correct fit.

[oblique loom]

(cant type lol.)

[lament tendon]

If it is mixed, I'd also recommend the larger size.

[oblique loom]

L is good, it'll probably shrink a little in the dryer so if it's too big at first that will help.

[south egret]

bruh i lost my 56 days streak

https://tenor.com/view/i-forgor-i-forgot-walter-white-dying-gif-27400979

[lament tendon]

You can ask support to restore it.

[lament tendon]

If they still do that.

[south egret]

wait really

[lament tendon]

Multiple of my friends kept their streak only because you can do that.

[cloud quiver]

Yes

[oblique loom]

We need more ranks, I've been a god too long. lol

Should be captain god by now

[cloud quiver]

I agree with this 🙂

[sick lance]

Support ask however you have the exact number, not just 80 odd.

Eh, depend on the rank score, people may automatically jump to the top.

[sand trench]

shadow is betting on never having to find out what happens if their streak gets a missed day and tim or jabba or whoever is in charge of email support responds

[sick lance]

I don't know who the support manager is, but I know the team, (not personally).

[silver sky]

Its me, you ain't getting no support kid

It's not me DW

yeah would think if someone has the tendencies shadow has that they would not be to unhappy to restore the streak.... just not wanna test it and keep streak growing naturally

I wanted to get into the 100s. Maybe someday

[primal kestrel]

one thing about me is i hate debugging windows services

windows development

[loud marlin]

but shadow is not have room test amount so... u more than me 100+

[oblique loom]

I feel like hacking a Windows system is harder than Unix-based systems.

But then again, I have more Linux exp

[sand trench]

eh windows is weird

[oblique loom]

It really can be at times

Especially Windows Server software

[sand trench]

it is not terribly hard to hack nescarily it is just very different to linux and thereby confusing

[oblique loom]

Yea, it's the commands for me

You have your regular cmd and also PowerShell

[sand trench]

and meterpreter if you use metasploit

HAH good error

[lament tendon]

Check #jobs-board, maybe.

It's bad for liver

That depends on the person

Assuming the car keys have been put away so that you are in no way tempted to drive

[exotic vector]

My phone and hand was in my pocket awhile ago and somehow spammed invite links to someone of servers I'm a part of. Sighhhh

[devout palm]

That'd put you and others at risk

[devout palm]

xd

Relatable

[exotic vector]

It was to a mod here.

[devout palm]

Not a problem really

Mods here are helpful and nice

Which one?

Except Muiri if you say Whiskey

[shell nova]

Might want to get that checked out. Change passwords and invalidate tokens to be safe

[exotic vector]

Oh I did this is the 2nd password change in a week

[sick lance]

Muiri isn't a mod

[exotic vector]

I apologised and everything.
Now it's time to play is my phone compromised or not

[sick lance]

Was it unlocked in your pocket?

[devout palm]

Was

[floral abyss]

Happened to me once, accidentally sending out invites for a private work discord server 🤦‍♂️

[sick lance]

Your message comes across as they still are.

[devout palm]

Yeah sorry

[exotic vector]

my phone has a really sensitive finger print scanner on the back. So it can easily unlock

[sick lance]

Yeah, I had one that had one of 'em.

[exotic vector]

its a pixel 4a.
its also really cold atm, so that could be having an effect as well

[glass nest]

When you had that snafu, did you notice anyone nearby who looked like the protaganist from the Watch Dogs game series?

so is calling people out who do not talk in this server but are here and randomly decide to add and dm you frowned upon? @sick lance

[exotic vector]

oooo

[glass nest]

It's against the rules, so for sure tell a mod

[sick lance]

Even if you do talk to them, sending without asking is frowned apon.

working on anything fun, fae?

[slim crystal]

guys, if I join a room and complete it but now if I wanna remove the room along with the answers and everything?

is it possible

[glass nest]

yup

[sick lance]

You can reset it.

[glass nest]

but you won't get any more points for it 😄

[slim crystal]

but it's still not impacting my rank

like it should go down right?

[sick lance]

Yeah. of course...

No.

Because you've still scored the points, you just won't get new ones.

[slim crystal]

what logic is that

[sick lance]

Why should you be punished for wanting to repeat content? - For not losing points.
Why should you cheat to get more points? - For not gaining points

[glass nest]

Fairly obvious logic?

[slim crystal]

okay but tell me how do I remove those rooms from my completed rooms page?

[sick lance]

Oh they'll stay there.

[glass nest]

Because you completed them

[slim crystal]

I don't wanna cheat bro, it was a very basic room, the hello room to learn how to use the tryhackme platform

I completed it but I don't feel like it's that great of an achievement and henceforth I wanna remove it

[sick lance]

It will stay, there is no shame on completing easy rooms.

[kindred drum]

Introduction to Cryptography I need help at this stage

[slim crystal]

okay, then fine

[sick lance]

Please use #room-help

[slim crystal]

I've got no further issues

also one more question

like it's said 500 per month for premium, so if I buy it for a month and complete the rooms I want in a single month, does this work or is logical?

[sick lance]

You can complete any rooms you want in any order.

[slim crystal]

naah I mean in a single month

but after subscription ends, the rooms will still be accessible and will be marked as completed?

[sick lance]

Completed y es.

accessible, no.

[exotic vector]

I have a new ebook for hacking so im going through it, basically I have spent today setting up my vulnerable home lab.

[slim crystal]

ohh

[sick lance]

After all, you can't watch stuff on Netflix you've already watched after your sub lapses.

[slim crystal]

no worries, still it's great

[glass nest]

Thats cool fae. first step to making your own rooms 😄

[slim crystal]

loved the tryhackme platform, gonna buy the premium in summer when I'll have my most free time, thankyou @sick lance for you help and patience

[exotic vector]

took me forever finding a spare windows 7 from a friend that is vulnerable to eternalblue, then took me longer to figure out guest additions for virtualbox as well lol

[sick lance]

No worries at all!

Keep and eye on some socials for TryHackMe this week 😉

[glass nest]

Your persistence is paying off though, fae

[slim crystal]

I've followed their handle on twitter 🙂

btw are you a moderator or something?

[sick lance]

I mean, any default iso for windows from XP to 10 (including Windows servers) should be vuln to Eternal Blue

[slim crystal]

or just an active user

[glass nest]

He's both 😄

[sick lance]

I'm a moderator for the server 😄

[exotic vector]

I think I have the mindset down, I play around with things, I research things when I dont know something and if it doesnt work I keep trying different things until it does

[sick lance]

Very active user too.

[slim crystal]

ohh

that's great, nice to meet you bhai

[glass nest]

Thats exactly where you should be fae. You should be proud 🙂

[sick lance]

And to you

(But please use English in the server moving forward, it's one of our community rules)

[slim crystal]

I'm using English, right?

[sick lance]

I'm not sure what "bhai" means. 😦

[slim crystal]

oh I guess you talking about that one word "bhai", it's just of the way you handled my doubts. I called you bhai

[fair trail]

would u guys say you need SOC 2 for a chance to land a SOC job or will soc 1+compsci degree be enough?

[slim crystal]

bhai is in hindi means brother

[glass nest]

glowing - What does the job description say?

[fair trail]

no job description refers to thm

[glass nest]

What do they refer to?

[fair trail]

its always the same saying degree knowledge in iso bsi and stuff

[slim crystal]

just a question, can I ask doubts related to IT fields in this server somewhere or do you guys know some server where I can, that'd be really helpful

[glass nest]

Aye, I get that - the sometimes use a degree as a litmus test, however if you have a cert that shows you can do the job offered, it's worth having a go. THM is a learning platform which can help prepare you to take the industry recognised certs.

If THM is to be on your resume, it would be more under the hobbies/extra-curricular to show that its something you are interested inlearning in your spare time

[sick lance]

You can ask in here 😄

[fair trail]

how much do u need to have a chance landing a junior/working student position what u say?

[slim crystal]

oh that's wonderful

[sick lance]

However, we may not be able to answer, depending on the question

[errant fossil]

Evening Everyone

[glass nest]

Well, the first step would be to look up job descriptions of the jobs you are hoping to get and see what they are all looking for. See what they all have in common, then you have a starting point to create your own journey

What kind of data is gone?

[pliant cairn]

My dreams have been with winapi recently. Having inconsistent handle exceptions. Why microsoft why!?

[slim crystal]

bro how? I guess you don't understand what my problem is

[thick sandal]

He’s shutting down the VM, bro you can save the state

Same way you save state on a physical device

[slim crystal]

like if I create a file, it's lost.
if I run any command and install any packages in terminal, I have to run those commands again

[thick sandal]

What vm software are you using??

[slim crystal]

I do save the state brother but I don't know why it doesn't work

[pliant cairn]

Are you on a bootable on the fly device like a usb perhaps?

[slim crystal]

Oracle VirtualBox

[slim crystal]

naah

[pliant cairn]

[thick sandal]

There should be a button that says save the machine

[slim crystal]

yes, there is but it doesn't save the state of my machine

[errant fossil]

What linux distro are you using?

kali?

[naive violet]

This usually means it's booting from the live disk each time

[slim crystal]

okay, maybe I'm doing something wrong so if any of you guys can send me a guide of the complete installation process

[thick sandal]

He’s talking about virtual box, I think you need to play around with the software

[slim crystal]

yes, Kali Linux

[slim crystal]

probably, I don't have much idea about it

[thick sandal]

Find the vm manager, there should be a list of saved machines

Then run the saved machine

[slim crystal]

you're absolutely correct, I will in the upcoming weeks

[pliant cairn]

Yes that is correct. Change the boot order/pref during startup @slim crystal

[slim crystal]

guys um I'm asking if possible?

[slim crystal]

I don't understand that much

[thick sandal]

It’s in their website, great site called google.com

[slim crystal]

bro 🙂

[pliant cairn]

Youtube/google has plenty of answers ang guides.

[naive violet]

There’s pry some India guy with a 20 hr tutorial

[naive violet]

That's the official Kali docs

[slim crystal]

haha

[slim crystal]

I'll read into it 🙂

[thick sandal]

Oracle is based

[errant fossil]

@slim crystal This is what you should look for from the website

[slim crystal]

the boot order?

and it should check those two boxes

[naive violet]

Huh it's separate in vbox, neat

[pliant cairn]

i spent a solid 3-4 hours today trying to figure out where my program went wrong and its all because of inconsistent handle exceptions in winapi

[naive violet]

Been a while since I used vbox

[sick lance]

Ya Vbox isn't as bad as it was.

Still not as good as Vmware.

[errant fossil]

yeh pretty nice, messed up many times before this

[errant fossil]

Yup

[sick lance]

It would allow VT-X, it would be better.

[errant fossil]

in order

[naive violet]

I heard with the UI overhauls etc it's pretty good now

[slim crystal]

vmware is better than virtualbox?

[glass nest]

You'll find any reason to make that stand, Scrubz 😄

[naive violet]

What's the specific ask there, pcie passthrough?

[pliant cairn]

Damn thats neat. I fogot this existed in vbox

[glass nest]

vijay - For someone whos new to it, they are both more-or-less the same

[errant fossil]

Yup pretty neat feature

[slim crystal]

ohh, I'd go with virtualbox then

[sick lance]

I just needed to have access to the VT-X so I could run emulated phones on Android Studio.

[slim crystal]

thanks guys

[errant fossil]

will see you around as the journey awaits

[sick lance]

I heard they trialled it for Intel in the 6.0 beta build, but you can't install that anymore.

[glass nest]

so, my only route to medicine was/is an exam called the GAMSAT - a 5hr long exam covering A-level Maths, Physics, Chemistry and organic Chemistry along with 2 x essays - 1 being an argumentitive one (choose a side, and argue for it) the other being one showing a point using personal experiences.

So I did read up on those a-level subjects. Maths was alright, The organic chem was a struggle

[errant fossil]

That sounds like pain

[glass nest]

(as I'd never done that before)

Honestly, the exam wasn't too bad.

I scored high enough to apply for Liverpool and Dundee aswell as Nicoisia, Cyprus and Poznan, Poland.

[pliant cairn]

Wheras london tends to be stabbings and stuff

So their focus tend to be more leaned that way, y'know?

Thanks Caustic 🙂

Aren't the requirements supposed to be more chill in the countryside

[glass nest]

@boreal scarab it is done. just need buy leds =/

[ripe sleet]

I got a question, are there any things that I have to set to this room that I'm creating for a club as far networking goes for Samba, ssh and others? Or does THM automatically generate this stuff when a user clicks create room? I don't know if this is the correct place for it.

[sick lance]

It does not.

If you're creating a room you place all the services etc in the room.

Unless you use a pre-made room created by THm or a community member.

[ripe sleet]

It's a custom room that I'm making for this club that I started at my university

[naive violet]

So tl;dr THM wraps AWS

The box gets DHCP

[glass nest]

I'm a little rusty on THMs classroom stuff - James, do you remember if that applies to university clubs?

[naive violet]

No idea around classroom

[glass nest]

I vaguely remember Muiri mantioned something like that back when he was a student

[naive violet]

I had the student perspective but it was a mess

[glass nest]

might be worth Darkfly getting in touch with the site. Might be a deal to be had or something

[ripe sleet]

So the whole point of my room is that it's meant to be similar to the basic pentesting room, so they can take the steps used in this room and apply them to the basic pentesting room in the next meeting

[glass nest]

Remember - we get 10million, Skidy sings.

[naive violet]

I remember when the threshold was lower

[glass nest]

Yeah, I challenged him on it, and scrubz pinned the new challenge

[devout palm]

How was it? Me a student

[ripe sleet]

Also, my university isn't apart of the education for THM as far as i see. I'm just using THM for aspect of the custom boxes in that sense

[naive violet]

My university royally messed it up

[glass nest]

darkfly - Email them from your student email account and they should add it

[sick lance]

I don't have a student account, I have a business one.

[glass nest]

Then all your collegues can get a discount

[ripe sleet]

Oh really? I graduate next semester though unfortunately, but the faculty advisor for the club I started is the program chair for my major.

[devout palm]

We code on paper and if you don't do the same solution as the lecturer, they fail you

[glass nest]

Just buy a year before you graduate 😉

[ripe sleet]

TBH, I want them to use THM for their education. It's so much better than Cengage

[devout palm]

How

[glass nest]

Yah. For real though, hit them up. they might have something or something in the works, for Uni clubs

that was for darkfly, Heap 😄

[devout palm]

Oh

My uni club is so inactive

Nobody likes cyber security here lol

[ripe sleet]

Anyhow, I just want to clarify. I just have the services like samba, and so on for the room and THM will apply the DHCP to the room. There's no additional things correct?

[glass nest]

thats cos you have to hack a box by writing on paper...

[ripe sleet]

Bruh how does that even work

[glass nest]

I was just trolling Heap 🙂

Called VF and explained the problem, they said that they could move the service but they won't be able to support 1000mpbs, in fact they can only support up to 60 mbps.

She asked to cancel and they said it would be a £500 cancellation fee

kek

[mossy river]

What a sad sad company

[devout palm]

Thank god vodafone is crap internationally and not only in my country

[ripe sleet]

I never heard of Vodafone. I just looked it up after you mentioned it though

[sick lance]

They can't even lower the price to reflect the speed?

[mossy river]

They can but a 94% decrease in internet speed for 4 adults and a 1 child

(And me when I stay over.. you know I need my ultrafast broadband..)

[glass nest]

Is that down to Vodafone or the available speed at the new crib?

[mossy river]

Just Vodafone

Checked with ofcom, OpenReach and Virgin provide 1000 mbps

[glass nest]

Do Vodafone piggyback on any of their services? I know that Virgin and sky are pretty much exclusive for them

But openreach... IIRC it's their hardware used for the other companues

[mossy river]

Yes they do which is why I said it's super strange that they won't

I just have one more question, who would I contact to inquire about the student discount thing for THM?

[mossy river]

[e-mail]

[glass nest]

Jabba - I'm sure with enough enumeration, you'll find a solution. there'll be some clause or something that'll allow getting out of it without shelling £500

[ripe sleet]

Thank you!

[sick lance]

Is your student email not recognised?

[naive violet]

Yes, only openreach

IIRC cityfibre etc

[ripe sleet]

I'm using a personal email for my main THM account

[sick lance]

You can change it.

[mossy river]

I contacted my lawyer my brother who does not do law who said they're well within their right to charge and there's likely a clause in the contract where they can offer a downgrade. I did read that if there are no vodafone services available, they would cancel without the fee, unless you were moving abroad.

[sick lance]

(If that's easier)

[glass nest]

how about downgrading every month until you are at the lowest tier, then the cancellation fee will be much lower?

(Usually they only allow 1 step down poer month or something similar)

Cmon Jabz, You're a hacker. Make their system work for you 🙂

[sand trench]

welp time for shadow to go sleep.....

[whole sable]

hello im new to coding does anyone have any pro tips or soft were i should use

[mossy river]

Interesting idea. I assume the fee is probably duration not plan but I'll check it out

[sick lance]

Hi and welcome, please don't multi-post 😄

[sick lance]

However, all the tools differ on what your use case is.

[mossy river]

I'm not allowed to use my skills for bad anymore 😔

[glass nest]

They are using their powers for bad. All you can do is work within the system rules to get a favourable result for you and your crew

[devout palm]

Amazon confirmed the compromise

[eternal timber]

I’m so eepy

Got like 3 hours of sleep today

[mossy river]

My best attempt is to cry to citizens advice

[sick lance]

Not like they had a choice.

[mossy river]

I already got screwed over with this hunk of junk pc

[glass nest]

Do you know anyone who might live in a very rural place where vodafone isn't available?

and would they mind a room-mate for a month?

[devout palm]

RIP

[glass nest]

Again, working within their rules

[mossy river]

Haha, to be honest this is all down to her family at this point. Waiting to hear back from her about the advice I passed over to her family earlier

[glass nest]

Good man.

You see what I'm getting at though?

theres more than one way to gain a shell

[sick lance]

Yeah. the worst is playing Mario Kart.

[glass nest]

You shut your filthy mouth! Mario Kart is a gods damned masterpiece!

[shell nova]

frack blue shells

[mossy river]

Yeah, I'd assume it's more effort than it's worth for them. I would die on this hill but maybe not them 😆

[glass nest]

£500 is a lot of money. On the other hand, will the 60megs be enough for her fam until the end of the contract

[mossy river]

Not at all 😆

[glass nest]

Like.. if you're not visiting, I mean :p

[mossy river]

Well there's four adults, an Xbox, a Gaming PC, Smart TV, Alexa

All of these already wouldn't work with 60mbps, not including the tables and mobile phones and anything else that would be streaming

[glass nest]

true true

[mossy river]

I originally thought she said 500mbps which I said would be fine for their house but when I realised she said 60mbps 🤣

[glass nest]

Perhaps you tuned your ears to filter out crazy, so misheard

[silver sky]

That's actually not their policy.

If you move and they cannot provide the same service they offer you to pick between leaving or choosing available services.

although this was two years ago, they've probably changed their policy because they really are shit

[mossy river]

They offered either a downgrade in price and speed or they would have to pay the £500 cancellation fee

[glass nest]

Hex - You know what I'm wanting to know... 🎩 ?

[silver sky]

I posted pictures earlier

[glass nest]

Phew. Was a close one.

[silver sky]

Bastards.

I will never go back to vodafone after the way they treated me

When I moved, they kept telling me they'd cancel my old service, but without fail they'd add it to my bill and try to charge me for both.

Then when my contract was at it's end, they charged me £29 for leaving one day early.

And then to make matters worse, they took me to court over my "unpaid" bills from my previous package that they failed to cancel

[glass nest]

Hex - You could make a netflix series from your life 😄

Sqwide Games

[silver sky]

Not really, it'll be quite boring

[glass nest]

I dunno man, You've had a lot go on since I've known you, and thats only a few years

[silver sky]

Just a shit set of cards

[glass nest]

Yeah, but you always come through it. and you always will.

[whole gazelle]

sqli games would be cool

[glass nest]

For real, it's inspirational. no matter what knocks you down, you always get back up.

With that cheeky sense of humour

Hehe, always wanted to give Kitesurfing a go

[exotic vector]

omg that was painful trying to mysql code

[glass nest]

Hehe. It's all learning, fae 🙂

[exotic vector]

I cant remember when I started, syntax error after syntax error then I went to chatgpt to help me out, fix the code and troubleshoot

[glass nest]

please tell me you are taking notes 😄

[exotic vector]

with how I made my first SQL database? or how I got it fixed?

[glass nest]

Everything.

Mistakes you made and how to fix them.

[exotic vector]

yeah its all documented

[glass nest]

future fae will thank you

[exotic vector]

gotta condense it though but its all saved anyway.

Squad time

[glass nest]

just so you know, you are 100% hacker. Don't let anyone ever tell you any different. You have the exact mindset, and the actions to back that up.

[exotic vector]

also I dont know SQL, I was following from a book for the very small database but I did learn the syntax to create a simple database at least. But the code in the book was wrong so all the troubleshooting, fixing etc was all me.

This is kinda my 'super power' im good at figuring out how to do something.

[glass nest]

Exactly. contrary to belief, being a hacker doesn't mean that you are 'good at computers'. It means that you see something, poke at it until it breaks and figure out how to fix it, then poke at it some more.

[naive violet]

Granted that mindset tends to make you good at computers

[glass nest]

Agreed

[exotic vector]

thats kinda what I do at everything.
Like my first ever office job, bare in mind I got the job through a disability service, basically the disability service where I use to live makes deals with companies to hire someone, for the first 12 weeks I am entirely paid by the disability service and if the company likes me then obvs the company has to pay the disability service and then officially hire me.

I didnt know how to do an office job, I learned everything while at work, literally at work googling how to do pivot tables, how to make posters and official documents etc got to the point where the people that were there for years were asking me for help lol

[glass nest]

See? Hacker 🙂

I think definition was something like 'using a thing for a function that it wasn't intended for' or something along those lines

[exotic vector]

I saw that definition as well, it created a debate with a friend of mine who is like "technically you're a cracker not a hacker" and a minute of searching later I slapped proof across the chat that I am a hacker lol

[glass nest]

You should be proud, fae.

[exotic vector]

I am proud, my fingers hurt though. You know those joke hacker gifs of hands gliding across a keyboard at high speeds? yeah that was me for the last 2 hours or so.

[glass nest]

I think your hat has started to meld into your brain

[exotic vector]

I think my brain is wearing the hat and not my head now lol

[glass nest]

Hehe

Damn. you're all inspirational aswell. I swear you and Wide are conspiring to motivate everyone

[exotic vector]

like honestly, its all I can think about. I do some THM I do some research and when I think "I am gonna watch some light hearted youtube videos to wind down" I end up watching some videos to increase my knowledge and when im away from my computer im going through everything i've learned lol I wish I could take an actual break xD

[glass nest]

hehe do make sure to find time for yourself though. wouldnt wanna burn out. Task your partner with dragging you away to look at old castles or something 😄

[whole gazelle]

i'll never believe in burnout being real

[glass nest]

No-one ever does until it happens.

[exotic vector]

theres no castles in my town, but there is a buried neolithic site, but its a now a woodlands so when you think you're wading through trees up a hill its actually the mound that the neolithic site is on

[glass nest]

wait, Mv - gratz on the rank up!

[whole gazelle]

bro i'm tryna reach god b4 i hit my first month on THM

[exotic vector]

congrats on the rank up Mv!!!

[glass nest]

You know what I mean fae. Get some nature/history

[exotic vector]

im definitely gonna go for a walk tomorrow

[whole gazelle]

it's more mental thing imo, like if you keep finding joy in whatchu do you will never get tired and 'burned out'

and thank u guys :3

[glass nest]

Well, burnout is when you do that thing SO MUCH that you don't find joy in it. They key is to take breaks so that you can come back refreshed

[exotic vector]

I am definitely done with learning today lol
But now I have a home lab.

[whole gazelle]

i get your point, when you overdo things you can get tired. that's why i always keep finding more and more ways to make eveyrthing intresting and exciting as much as possible. but that's just me thing

[glass nest]

If it works for you, then awesome.

[exotic vector]

what have you 2 been up to, today?

[glass nest]

Just been at work 🙂

[whole gazelle]

grinding thm and reading rust book

nothing much tbh

hbu

[glass nest]

Watching Iron Man now 😄

[exotic vector]

sounds like fun you 2 xD

mmmmm making a homelab out of VMs, some errands, and this recent conversation sums up the last 2 hours of my day lol
