general

[finite bone]

on pc

police still can find them

[rapid merlin]

still trackable

[glass nest]

you seem really interested in the authorities not knowing your location

[dark frost]

i can't anwser this

[mossy river]

#research message Y'all might want to give this a read

[finite bone]

not mine

[rapid merlin]

lol

[dark frost]

[glass nest]

well. too late. they probably already know.

[finite bone]

yes, so idc about them

[dark frost]

they know ,it's too late

[finite bone]

but i m interested in how they are doing it

[rapid merlin]

become a policeman then

[glass nest]

I care. So I try not to do anything that would keep their attention on me

[finite bone]

i mean I don't want to make anything illegal

so idc what they know about me

[dark frost]

live in a desert or under a montain , middle of the ocean they wont find oyu

[finite bone]

but is there any way to find someone by phone number

[dark frost]

we told you yes 🙂 police has that technologie

[glass nest]

Yes. call them up and ask them where they are. Kindof advanced technique though

[dark frost]

it's a contract they do with phone number providers , and all the network/Anthenna that make us connected 😄

then use Triangulation to track you up to 5 meters

[glass nest]

For real though. Look into how mobile phones work. How come sometimes you have strong signal and other times you don't? What other signals would a phone be giving out? Where do those signals go?

[rough widget]

Why sword beside your name?

[glass nest]

Why the 'God' in front of yours?

Dawiddym - The intention was for the user to research themselves

I know how phones work. Even went to a class on cell tower forensics 😄

[dark frost]

yeah i stop now , was fun joking around

[fair lava]

Approximate location can be determined by triangulating signals from cell towers, and this data is stored by phone's network provider, police can request it to pinpoint phone's last location

[dark frost]

i like swords 🙂

[finite bone]

so they can find u by this and e.164

[glass nest]

What did your research tell you?

[finite bone]

about signals or about e.164 standard?

[glass nest]

Both.

once you understand how the system workds, then you can think backwards/forwards, to determine what methods they would potentially use to know your location

[finite bone]

in e.164 u 2 have numbers for country and 3 numbers for area

in my country

[scenic dirge]

hi

how can i be

:^

[rough widget]

I'm griffith i like casca 🌚

[glass nest]

ooo - ok. How would that help authorities know your location?

[scenic dirge]

i want to be ethical hacker

teach me

sir

[glass nest]

Excellent! you can #start-here

[finite bone]

i mean it can help in localization

[glass nest]

Good. So thats a start. probably not all that precise, knowing what country/city a person of interest is in. What else?

[finite bone]

and i know that all these websites to find someone by phone number don't work :/

[dark frost]

It's not free service

[glass nest]

I'll brush over how and why you found that out, but what else do you know about how phones and cellphones work?

[dark frost]

These website have a database of public registred phone numbers not all

[finite bone]

so it works by sending analog signals to bts and this bts is sending it to another bts

and police can easily hear what you are talking about

[dark frost]

[glass nest]

you've made an assumption there.

[finite bone]

hmmm?

[glass nest]

However, yes. It send a signal to a cell tower. What happens if you are travelling in a car, and get too far away from that tower?

[finite bone]

u re connecting to another cell tower

[glass nest]

(The assumption that someone can overhear a conversation at a call tower. thats nonsense)

Good. so when you travel, does the signal drop, and you have to call again, or does something else happen?

[dark frost]

Look at communcations protocols , phone uses Google It !!!

[finite bone]

phone signal no, but for example when I'm hearing radio for a while I have 2 signals and it sounds strange

[dark frost]

Police have the right to MiTM conversation . By law

[glass nest]

Ok, Radio is different.

But we were talking about phones.

[finite bone]

u mean rcs?

[finite bone]

so no

[dark frost]

Radio data are encrypted you can't undersand anything from those captueed messages

[finite bone]

it's connecting to other cell towers

[glass nest]

Well, if you owned a cellphone company, how would you make sure that someone leaving one cell tower area and entering another wouldnt have to hang up and re-dial?

(Heres a clue - Think of a 'Venn Diagram')

[finite bone]

no, it's reconnecting to other cell tower

[glass nest]

without hanging up?

[dark frost]

🤦‍♂️

[finite bone]

i think, maybe? xD

[glass nest]

Easy, Dawidd. Maybe I'm not explaining well.

[dark frost]

You do , but text can't help , a picture would be better to explain

[glass nest]

aye, I'm trying to encrouage them to think about how it works first before just giving the answers

Ok. So theres some research for you. How does it connect to other cell towers without obvious interruption? again, the hint would be 'Venn Diagram'

[dark frost]

https://youtu.be/1JZG9x_VOwA?si=Lm66f1TFhEGXE3L5

@finite bone watch this and come back in 20 minutes for

[finite bone]

i read about how it works and its radio frequency

[glass nest]

Also, you are now getting an idea of how this server works. you can ask a question like 'How do the cops know where I am', and this is how we all understand it 🙂

[finite bone]

and it's sending to cell tower

[fair lava]

There is a 4G as known as soft handover and 5G hard handover process, phone doesn't just drop the signal it switches to better one before losing the current one, the system uses small cells to help extend coverage in cities to avoid data loss over short distances

[glass nest]

Ok. Thats established.

Tusk has literally given you the answer 2 or 3 times 😄

[finite bone]

yes so it's connecting to better cell tower

[glass nest]

Ok, i'll relent. The answer/concept is that the areas overlap

Like that

[half girder]

hm odd question.. trying to display some javascript in wordpress, putting it inbetween code highlighter .. then pre tags .. it makes it some weird gibberish. ideas?

[finite bone]

yes

[glass nest]

So either you are in 1 cell area, or in multiple cell areas.

[finite bone]

i saw it when i was driving to the countries

other countries*

[glass nest]

Now, When you call someone, what is a good thing to check beforehand? to make sure the call quality will be good?

hint - It's on the top corner of your phone screen

[finite bone]

u mean connection?

[glass nest]

Yes. and how is that represented on your phone?

[finite bone]

using these 3 stripes

in this icon

idk how to even say that xD

i mean this icon

[glass nest]

Excellent. And what do those 3 stripes tell you?

[stone pasture]

Hi

[finite bone]

how good is my connection

[glass nest]

your connection oorrrrr

[stone pasture]

Guys using wordpress? Here

[finite bone]

reach

[glass nest]

'Signal Strength'

[finite bone]

??

[finite bone]

yes

[glass nest]

Ok. So, what does 'Signal Strength' actually mean, given that we now know where those signals are coming from (the cell towers)

[finite bone]

how far u re from cell tower

[glass nest]

Exactly, You got it.

Now, What if you are in the middle of that diagram?

Or, rather.. off to the side anywhere

[finite bone]

I don't have connection

or signal

[glass nest]

Well.. you will.

Because multiple towers overlap. you'll have great signal

from 3 towers.

[finite bone]

oh anyway xD i m idiot

[glass nest]

So you are the red X

[finite bone]

yes

[stone pasture]

I've seen this in games and movie

[finite bone]

so extremely good signal

[glass nest]

Which tower will give you the best signal?

[finite bone]

c

[stone pasture]

The person covers all towers will get traced easily am I right?

[glass nest]

Good.

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-google-maps-italy-gif-21371827

[glass nest]

So a and b will give you less good signal

[finite bone]

yes

[glass nest]

Excellent. When you make a call you send a signal out. What also happens?

[stone pasture]

Am I right uncle

[finite bone]

it's sending to cell tower

[glass nest]

And when your 'bro' talks back to you on the phone, how do you hear that?

[finite bone]

i have signal from c

[glass nest]

Or from all three.

So.. The cell tower(s) send a signal BACK to your phone

Now.. If you have 100 signal from C, 20 signal from A and 15 signal from B.....

(The units of measurement aren't important, just indicating how strong it would be)

[finite bone]

when i will talk with someone i think i will hear only from c

[glass nest]

But if you are moving around, the other towers will be sending signals too. so that you don't get cut off

[finite bone]

yes

it will switch the connection

ti better cell tower

to*

[glass nest]

So tower C will know that you are, say 50m away. Tower A will know you are 100m away. Tower C will know that you are 80m away. Because it knows how long each signal takes to get to you and for your phone to respond

Once you have 3 points, thats what @fair lava said earlier about 'triangulation'

[finite bone]

oh so it makes sense... so for normal people there is no way to find other people by phone number

[glass nest]

Not all signals in and out of a phone are phone calls

And I did mentioned before - Of course you can. Call them up and ask them where they are.

[finite bone]

nah i mean i have a problem with spam phones, everyday i have 3-4 spam calls

i blocked i think 200+ phone numbers

and they are still calling to me

[glass nest]

Change your number?

[finite bone]

i mean it won't help, i mean some websites are selling phone numbers

[glass nest]

Ok. Well, report them to the authorities.

If they are doing so illegally

[finite bone]

in my country everyone knows about this

but police dont care

[stone pasture]

Which country r u from

[finite bone]

Poland

[glass nest]

thats a very generalised statement.

[stone pasture]

Not in Poland evry country they don't care

[finite bone]

there are big lists of scam phone numbers

[glass nest]

So, now you have a very basic idea of how cellphones work, and some idea of how police can find/track someone.

[finite bone]

and when u just type this phone number in google there are many comments about this

[glass nest]

Can you do anything about it, legally?

[finite bone]

I don't think

[glass nest]

Then modify your own habits to account for it, and go about your own life/business.

[stone pasture]

I had a doubt along time

[round lintel]

hello guys

[cloud quiver]

Congrats on new cert buddy 🥳

[wide merlin]

So like take this consideration. You could attempt to login to a WordPress page via /wp-admin/, but you could be hindered by only 3 password attempts.

If the wp site has xmlrpc, you can actually attempt to login however many times in one request as what will be buffered. Without 3 guesses failing you.

So I made a payload generator for burpsuite that generated a xmlrpc request with placeholders for your word list. Just because why not you can attempt to log in however many times will fit in a request at once. So perhaps batches of 1000 attempts can be done from one request.

Gonna test it in practice in a bit too.
Cause perhaps a request that is so large is slower than so many smaller singular login attempts.

[dark frost]

And nice art pfp ,

I got a badge OWASP Top 10 badge

[wide merlin]

Python is fun. The NATAS thing was really fun there's still like 20 levels there. On the next level which I have half the code to beat just haven't pushed it, was pretty hard. Had to get the cookie decrypt decrypt again reverse and replicate the xor encryption to get the way to generate the cookie based off of the value you wanna modify. Pretty annoying to do in Python but it's just fun to use python to hack shit.

Personally, I don't always use python. For some of my projects I have used C++, I just don't post those on git cause they're part of something bigger usually.

[wide merlin]

I never really signed into my GitHub much I usually use it to pull repos ofc. I think everybody does more pulling than pushing. But how did you get the badge doing a challenge or something?

[dark frost]

Completted a room named owasp top 10 2021

[dark frost]

Yeah i learned a lot

[wide merlin]

I've used juice shop and such for my own testing. DVWA also has top 10 as well

Oh yeah @dark frost that keylogger on my git is pretty cool.

You can send the image data as bytes over a network along with the keys. So they are never saved to the target system! :p. It only requires the mss python library to be installed on the target I believe.

[glass nest]

oh Tavish. you are a funny guy 😄

[soft oxide]

how to get it updated to latest version

[mossy river]

It's all covered in our rules 😊

[sudden bridge]

ikr

[wide merlin]

APT probably

[dark frost]

I have some money issue for the moment , oscp cost a lot

[soft oxide]

i did everything it still gives it

[wide merlin]

If I could react to you, I would say 👍. Let me check that out again.

[sudden bridge]

ya same.

[wide merlin]

Is your apt repo updated? Aside from it saying sqlmap has no updates

[soft oxide]

lemme see that

[dark frost]

Is there a free course to know all about oscp ? Then you just pay the examinations?

[wide merlin]

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

You can add force -y if you want but you will see sqlmap need updated if not and get to tell it to.

Assuming you're using a machine that utilizes apt

[glass nest]

Dawid - not so much a free course, but you can get the syllabus from Offsec website. That can give you a roadmap

[soft oxide]

still it persists

[mossy river]

Download it from their repository

[soft oxide]

okay

[soft oxide]

i did that actualyl

but id install it again

[mossy river]

Your repo might just be outdated or your system could be pointing to the outdated version

is it easy to hack into peoples security cams? if theyre connected to their home network by example?

Nope.

[twin ridge]

[drifting canopy]

tell me why not?

[naive violet]

Big legal liability. Red teaming isn't for end consumers either, it's for orgs with established security functions. So is pentesting.
Freelance pentesting is pretty much always a terrible idea unless you are, or have a very good business relationship with, a lawyer.

Plus if you go to consumers and say "look at all these problems I found, just pay $150 and the problems will be fixed" sounds suuuuuuuuuuper sketchy
Apply it to other scenarios that aren't cyber

[drifting canopy]

wdym?

[naive violet]

It sounds like a scam

[drifting canopy]

if i have their permission i can hack them legally right?

[naive violet]

Because it's a technique scammers use

[drifting canopy]

not if im a 13y old kid 💀

[whole gazelle]

age doesn't really matter in this case

[naive violet]

That's many many times worse.

[naive violet]

You need contracts reviewed by lawyers from both sides really

So... doesn't work for consumers

There's a concept called "informed consent" too, the end client would have to know what they're consenting to

No, I analyse malware in my spare time.

[dark frost]

I wish i had 1% knowledge you have

[stable pewter]

and why do you think so?

[dark frost]

You got hands on a infected device by accident ?

[fair lava]

Advanced hooking compatibilities, transaction-based hooking, backed by microsoft and including commercial software development

[sick lance]

Not with pegusus no.

[whole gazelle]

you do malware analysis in vm's bro

[stable pewter]

nice i remember long time ago it had expensive license for pro use, is it fully free now?

[fair lava]

Free for commercial use under MIT license

[dark frost]

Yeah i know bro , but pegasus infect android/ OS phones . Maybe he got it that way

[crude stump]

Pretty sure there’s sandbox iOS/android environments

[dark frost]

Yeah there is ofc like any OS

[stable pewter]

ok thanks bro

Never done mobile app analyses yet . 🥺

[finite tulip]

I see under the FAQ that it could be added to Pickle Rick and other CTFs, do you know if the AI would be added when the rooms (new CTFs) are added or if it would be a bit before it gets added? (since I think in the first while it should be hidden to not break the spirit of trying to hack the machine)

[torpid furnace]

You want ai for ctfs?

[dark frost]

Ai are stealing our jobs !

[sick lance]

I don't know anymore than it's new, I'm afraid.

[torpid furnace]

Ai for what?

[finite tulip]

No, but at the bottom of the faq it says it may expand to pickle rick (a ctf room)

[dark frost]

The word AI is used for anything these days ... can be anything

[sick lance]

They're talking about this.

The Echo AI chatbot that appears in some rooms.

[whole gazelle]

yoooOOO!!!

[crude stump]

Seems unfair to me

[dark frost]

Wow this great !

[rapid merlin]

how can I hack an account

[dark frost]

[sick lance]

You don't, that is illegal.

And agasint our community rules.

[sick lance]

Ah, let's block somebody. but tell you they're sending a message everytime.

About as much use as a chocolate teapot.

[naive violet]

@torpid furnace Please make sure your attitude is appropriate.
If someone is breaking the rules, ping a mod. Don't tell them to shut up.
Don't encourage negative behaviour like that either.
If you continue, you'll recieve a formal warning or a mute

[wild rose]

mmmm chocolate teapot

[upper knoll]

to be fair that does sound like a fire teapot

i could eat the hell outta that

[torpid furnace]

Ok

[sick lance]

Not really good for making tea though, which is my point.

[upper knoll]

yes thats true

Good morning ladies and gentlemen

Who wants a money deal

I found a vulnerability but i dont have time nor skill to work it out

Somebody does it for me and i get 20% from bug bounty

[sick lance]

This sounds sketch.

What are you doing?

[knotty cargo]

Sooo i was hanging out with gemini ai on my phone

And i told it to install the gemini app

And it did it without me clicking install in the package manager

It kind of has the permissions to install system apps

Could that be an attack vector ?

[dark frost]

yes indeed

[sudden bridge]

Not a vulnerability though.

[next spade]

I mean it depends what its able to execute

[knotty cargo]

dont steal all the money i just want 20% 💀

[sudden bridge]

🤣 😭

[dark frost]

can't steal 20% of 0$

[knotty cargo]

Installing apps without package manager like google play does is a high privilige

[sick lance]

Gemini AI can't install apps.

[sudden bridge]

ask chatgpt to help u in that

[sick lance]

The app tells you to use the device settings.

[knotty cargo]

I was chattinf with it on the google messages app, which is a system app

[unique sonnet]

Hi Digital Warriors...

[whole gazelle]

hi

[dark frost]

hi young padawan

[knotty cargo]

Even with gpt i know nothing about reverse engineering and exploit from scratch stuff

[sick lance]

Google Messages also doesn't have the privs to install apps

[unique sonnet]

I am supposed to stay annoymous

[knotty cargo]

How did it automatically install gemini ai app ?

[sick lance]

You downloaded it in an update.

[whole gazelle]

✨ magic ✨

[whole gazelle]

i'm not so young tho

you can call me lil padawan tho

[dark frost]

you 24

[knotty cargo]

I just was chatting with it for the first time

[sick lance]

You just enabled it with holding in the lock button.

[whole gazelle]

nah bro, i'm 20 still

[dark frost]

i am not much older than you 🙂

[whole gazelle]

yeah, but still that doesn't make me young padawan

[knotty cargo]

Hmm did i

I dont remember

[whole gazelle]

i'm mid padawan

[knotty cargo]

Wait a sec

The other day

I found a real vulnerability

But this one i want 30% 💀

I was tech talking

[dark frost]

who even are you ?

[whole gazelle]

he is gigachad0366

[knotty cargo]

And i accidentailly shared an exploit file

[whole gazelle]

put some respect on his name

[knotty cargo]

And it triggered windows defender on all users who had discord installed

[next spade]

0day CEO

[knotty cargo]

Btw

[knotty cargo]

And i almost got banned

[next spade]

interesting

[wide merlin]

Huh

Gigachad move

[knotty cargo]

You gotta move it move it

Bro im not joking

Want me to send the file yere ?

[dark frost]

how much can i get from this ? i am poor need money and work

[knotty cargo]

I want 30% and u get the rest

[dark frost]

but how much is 100% ?

[knotty cargo]

If i send it here it will be downloaded to discord cache folder and trigger windows defender on all users who have discord installed

[dark frost]

a 🍪 ?

[knotty cargo]

Ask discord bug bounty

[wide merlin]

Lmfao

[half girder]

@sick lance

[wide merlin]

Do it. I'd love to see windows defender pop up on my phone.

[whole gazelle]

@glass nest did you have a warm up? 😉

[glass nest]

Can't wait to see his cheeky face!

[dark frost]

we will see 0day 👀 ?

[glass nest]

A video, I imagine 😄

[dark frost]

i like to see him on my youtube shorts

[glass nest]

although... would be cool if he introduced the whole thing with a Willy Wonka hat and cane!

[whole gazelle]

YOOOOO

[dark frost]

he pop up , Boom i hacked pedo* here is how , boom boom i did this and that

[glass nest]

'Come and see, you will be, in a world of pure enumeration!'

What do we reckon we'll get? a bit of web. Maybe some reverse engineering?

[dark frost]

i just started a room about gobuster, i understant the enumaration meme now

[glass nest]

i hope theres some forensics in there

[zealous shell]

Does AoC have both walkthroughs and CTF or?

[half girder]

id like some IoT, thats a fun topic

[glass nest]

Sn1per - Kinda both?

beginner focused, and a video walkthrough for each task

[zealous shell]

Ohh, I'm new so don't know much about event haha

[pine kayak]

Every character in the comics look like that and I w00fing love it.

[loud marlin]

@glass nest fyi the printer magnetic build-plate smells horrible when engravin =/

[glass nest]

You gotta suffer for your craft, ralex

Maybe treat the plate with fragrant oils?

[loud marlin]

nah... i like suffering...

im making magnetic template that will have exact place if i need to engrave multiple things and i do not aim for center all the time. idk if i explain it right

[glass nest]

In woodworking, we call that a 'Jig'

[half girder]

reference to margaret keane?

[loud marlin]

that yea... so i just can swap it fast yea

[glass nest]

Yeah. Doing the same thing multiple times, so you build a jig for repeatability and consistency. you're just using magnets instead of plywood off-cuts 😄

To be fair, the most useful stuff i've printed have been jigs for the workshop

[dark frost]

discord is such a beautifull world , can meet the best hackers in the world in a rondom server

[glass nest]

the 2 I used the most have been jigs for drilling the centre of pen-blanks dead straght and centre, and another one for holding it straight while sanding

[glass nest]

You met us lot aswell...

[dark frost]

yes you are the best here ❤️

[glass nest]

Oh. I'm no hacker. not anymore :p

[dark frost]

you are in the top 100 in the world at least

[glass nest]

how about a no hints wallpaper?

[mossy river]

I'm pretty sure one already exists from last year 😁

[half girder]

i think there was one

[glass nest]

But they can't give any hints on where it is.

[half girder]

and then i wonder why no one at thm made a "no hints" shirt.. i mean, cmon, "no hints" got big last year lol

[pine kayak]

Yes, we both came from the Wardly family tree

[glass nest]

Dogs grow on trees? huh. Today I Learned. I always thought they hatched from eggs.

[pine kayak]

That's a good idea that I should remember to pitch to the team.

[half girder]

Only the normal ones do. Us Wardlies are from trees.

u can

@kind plinth Where did you get the CTF challenge from?

This is intern with cyberXworld and my instructor pass this challenge with my team

[glass nest]

Jaaammeess. My garage is still a tip. I have too much crafting stuff

Haven't even started on my electronics station

[upper knoll]

Sounds like you need to craft more stuff to reduce the stuff!

Turn it into things easy

[worn thorn]

craft a garage extension

[glass nest]

It's a good idea Dee, but I don;t have the space to make anything, cos it's such a mess 😄

[upper knoll]

So you pick the stuff you need take it out craft

Ez

[glass nest]

It's too wet outside to craft out the front of the house

[upper knoll]

My grandad is the same garage is full so he makes things in the garden to go back in the garage

Ooof

[glass nest]

Yah, I don't have a garden 😦

[upper knoll]

Oh no

[glass nest]

Or a driveway

[upper knoll]

Any rooms large enough?

Or too messy

[glass nest]

it's woodwork. not cool to imbue an indoor room with sawdust 😄

[upper knoll]

Yer

Maybe not

You could just Dexter the room?

[glass nest]

potentially. I think clearing the mess is as much about organising stuff aswell as making space

[upper knoll]

Yer I just am not a huge organiser

[naive violet]

I need to buy some organiser drawers

[upper knoll]

I’m the organsied choas type

[glass nest]

Well.. I keep thinking I might be a hoarder, but only for garage stuff

[sick lance]

I bought some organiser drawers, they're not really organised now though...

ay quick question cuz i forgot the syntax: how do i bruteforce a login page without an error and i have a name

[loud marlin]

is that thm room or ?

[glass nest]

Brute Force? ew

[hazy sundial]

i forgot the syntax!!!

[glass nest]

Good. find a non-brute way to solve it

[hazy sundial]

there was a note in witch it said he has a weak password

.

[loud marlin]

then rockyou will be solution

[hazy sundial]

IK ROCKYOU WILL BE THE SOLUTION

but i forgot the syntax

[glad dust]

we don't know what you're talking about

[loud marlin]

then you need refresh you knowledge

[glad dust]

If you're looking for hydra just read doc

[glass nest]

If only there was a tool that you could use to search the internet for instructions on how to use something. To my knowledge that doesnt exist.

[hazy sundial]

yeah....

someone should make something like that

[glass nest]

Sorry for being evasive, but you've not said what this is actually for, and I'd hate to help you do something unethical

[hazy sundial]

i needed it for a koth

forgot how to do it tho

i recently got back on tryhackme from a 6 months break

[glass nest]

But you never said that. You just started typing in all caps.

If you've learned how to use the software, might be worth referring to your notes

[hazy sundial]

ik i used it at some point but forgot to note it down

[glass nest]

And now you've learned why notes are so important 🙂

[glad dust]

Idk

I just know how to google

lol

[hazy sundial]

usually i do notes

[half girder]

[mossy river]

This University assignment is so difficulty vague that I'm genuinely becoming frustrated 🫠

[rapid merlin]

womp

[glass nest]

Sorry Jabba, Server rules. We can't help 😄

[rapid merlin]

LOOOOOL

😭

[glass nest]

Just kidding. Whats it on?

[mossy river]

Great question

[glass nest]

Is it that Drone thing still?

[tall stag]

Best

[mossy river]

At this point, it could be on anything

[glass nest]

Haha, fair enough

[mossy river]

I've complained multiple times to the University about it

And I am one of those people who won't complain no matter how difficult it gets

Yes I see the irony

[glass nest]

Oh man, When I was in uni we all had to do a presentation on 'something related to the degree', which was peer graded. I went mad.

Fully complained to the Uni. My thought was: Us geeks are the most pedantic creatures in the known universe. No-one would get anything over an average grade, regardless of how good it was

Any iota of power of influence that they get, they will leverage.

[mossy river]

I'd just give everyone 100

[glass nest]

I tried to message as many of the other groups as possible to say 'Look, lets just give each other top marks', but... sigh... geeks

[rapid merlin]

Anybody here got experience with using Qubes

[mossy river]

Lecturers at my University have said things like "nobody will get more than 80% on this assignment" which is so completely inappropriate

[glass nest]

Oh, it wasn't blind either. so, as the presentations went on, vendettas appeared, so the grades steadily went down

[waxen surge]

How does the black friday campain work? Was it 35% just one time or 35% for all your billings?

[half girder]

nothing more fun than having this one idiot in your seminars asking the stupid questions during presentations..

[glass nest]

I was fuming. If it were a nothing assignment, I'd chalk it up to experience, but it was actually a big portion of the grade for that module

[fair lava]

It would depend on the retailer's specific offer

[waxen surge]

The THM one

[glass nest]

Oooh Tusk! gratz on the snazzy red rank 😄

[fair lava]

Appreciate Esqy

[glass nest]

Also, Thanks for your help during that cellphone lecture earlier. I think you'd vanished before all was said and done.

Pretty sure the police know where he is 😄

[fair lava]

Managed to read half of it, i'm glad you explained it more clearly

[glass nest]

Hey, it's what you get if you ask a broad question 😄

[mossy river]

As someone who was so excited to go to University, I'm so underwhelmed by the experience.
Should have used the 27k on a TryHackMe business subscription

To be fair, he did follow along. I was expecgin him to juyst keep reverting back to 'How can I find a person using their phone number'

[rapid merlin]

[glass nest]

[glass nest]

[rapid merlin]

[rapid merlin]

Jabba, I'm honestly considering doing OU

[amber quarry]

Damn so you in debt now ?

[sick lance]

They teach CeH, take from that what you will.

[rapid merlin]

I have 0 knowledge about CeH

elaborate

[amber quarry]

CEH = Can't Even Hack

[mossy river]

Mhm, very common in the UK

You only pay it back when you earn over x amount and even then it will be a small percentage of your sallary every month

[rapid merlin]

ah

[sick lance]

Shit company, with shit values,

[glass nest]

Const - My ex did a Biology degree through OU. overall took her about 6 years, as she did it while working in a professional full-time job. (and travelling to cool places in europe with me)

[shadow swallow]

The war today

[mossy river]

Honestly, the OU's teaching material is amazing

[sick lance]

That sounds like a part time.

[rapid merlin]

[polar turret]

What is OU?

[rapid merlin]

Open University

uk thing

[glass nest]

She kinda did the modules one at a time

[mossy river]

It's a fully remote University in the UK

[rapid merlin]

isn't 6y how long it take for an honours normally lmao

[amber quarry]

That's actually a decent system I guess
I didn't pay at all for uni but it was apprenticeship. I definitely learned more at my job than school
Old af professors that taught outdated stuff from slides made 15 years ago

[glass nest]

And she worked in a lab which she got from her first degree

[sick lance]

That's optional,.we have a few rooms for OU in Cali.

[rapid merlin]

ah

[glass nest]

3 for a BSc. Mine was, anyway

[sick lance]

3 + 1 (distinction year)

[glass nest]

I guess it was different back in my day. the Honours part was based only on the dissertation

[sick lance]

I have a BsC in Digital Forensics and Cyber Sec, this is my distinction year

Guys, this is the first time I download Discord, I didn't understand it, he wants a quiz

[glass nest]

Both.

[tall stag]

Wow

In 2024

[sick lance]

Who wants a quiz? Lol

[shadow swallow]

Discord 😂

[rapid merlin]

who here is the most clinically insane

[glass nest]

Yup. when you click that 'Yes to marketing' box, many times you are giving the OK for them to sell your email to another company

[sick lance]

Oh, it's the onboarding thing

[rapid merlin]

evening shadow

[tall stag]

Wow

[shadow swallow]

I don't understand, I think he wants to send someone or something like that.

[rapid merlin]

hoping to get through another 1-2h of the python course today yippee

[sand trench]

not not not not not not not shadow

[glass nest]

batuflex - you can track it, in a way.

[rapid merlin]

another solution, if you really care, is to just make a bunch of emails you only ever use for discord

[tall stag]

It just seemed ridiculous that there is a lot of crypto-related news and it's all related to these e-mails and in 2024 there is still no solution.

[glass nest]

for Gmail - As far as I remember, you can add +something to your email address. so fi you are [e-mail], and you sign up to a site for.. Juice shop, you can register as [e-mail].

If you get an email from a cookie shop, but they send it to your +Juiceshop email, you know where they got it from

and it all goes to the same inbox 🙂

[tall stag]

Gotcha.

[silver sky]

I use aliases on my email for that

[rapid merlin]

evening wide boi

[tall stag]

In an incident I heard about last week, very serious money was laundered from a man's crypto account and the reasons for this are said to be e-mails circulating on the internet.

[glass nest]

A lesson in staying safe online, and keeping up your password complexity

[tall stag]

I’m always using macbook advices

Lol

[stable pewter]

guys what programming languages do you know?

[glass nest]

Bit of C++, Bit of Java, Bit of Python, Tiny bit of assembly...

not a lot, really

[stable pewter]

nice

[glass nest]

Ooh, I used to know Pascal 😄

[stable pewter]

ive coded in a lot of languages but i think im most expereinced in C#

currently learning C

and i know some python

[glass nest]

Not coded in years, doubt I could write a program nowadays, but I can follow code failry well

[stable pewter]

oh

[timber galleon]

lots of bits

[glass nest]

It gets picked up along the way, y'know?

[timber galleon]

i suppose so, it all boils down to 1s and 0s

[glass nest]

from what I've learned, once you know a couple of languages (And object oriented one and a non-OO one), it gets the principals down, so after that it's a matter of syntax
