Is it still up?
Oh okay, I read (I reckon last month) about Riot offering money to be 'hacked'.
^^
their anti cheat is included?
their spy...anti-cheat is on all the time, so that's probably why the program, I reckon.
haven't tested it but i dont think its good at all
as for FPS, you can create a sort of aimbot on python. It bypasses most kernel anti-cheats. At least 2 or 3 months ago, idk now, for certain games where you could program a 'baby-one' and it could be effective.
yes
ai
is the new way
Discussing game hacks is against Discords ToS, please stop ๐
regarding their anti cheat which is in their bbp
this is against discord tos talking about this?
Careful line to take here
There's a programming server where I saw this, however, they discourage anyone to use your coded ai, on public matches, it's for learnig purposes only and to shine some light on how some kernel anticheat are useless, if not every one of them. They are invasive, and useless.
That's the one that I'm thinking of, in the middle
yeeee
ill just make an alt account
Not if you responsibly disclose it.
I feel like doing something, but I am not allowed to
wait did bella leave and rejoin this discord???
yes
that explains why no show for you in team awesome for advent of cyber sidequest
was wondering why you did not pipe in there for a few day
- days
I broke down with stress and slowly coming back
If you follow the terms of the program and generally act responsibly
oooh so shadow is not alone in having twitching eyes and uncontrollable shakes every few mins from anxiety and stress
yeah
I'm about to do something I regret because of all the stress of life
my body went into shock tuesday night where I was shaking uncontrollably for over an hour
guess you got sent to the hospital
so I took 2 days off discord and put myself on sick leave from work
nope
that sounds like it might have been dangerous
WOW! I hope you're better now ๐
yeah, been sleeping most of the time, otherwise just relaxing with youtube and working on my motorcycle
you should watch arcane
already finished it
it's good

too late
been playing it since 2015
I started playing in 2017 I reckon
I only play aram
c r i n g e
on a old hp laptop which I still have somewhere :P
a contact person from shadows mental health clinic called today and told shadow to up their does of 25 mg quiteapine to 50 mg
so yeah
I returned this year, and I only play bots :P
sorry to hear that
rookie stuff
im already at 50
but to up to 75
and ty i almost forgot to bring my meds
I ain't on any meds yet ๐ฆ
shadow is also on 10 mg of olanzapine and 10 mg of propiomazin and alemazine
still can only sleep about 4 hours a night
but yeah shadow is generally on very low dosages for anti psychotics
im on 3mg doxepin and 50 mg hydroxine
and 20mg adderall
yeah
why're we doing a pissing contest
not really
just talking about shadows medication and reasons for upping the amounts in hope of better mental health stability
not trying to do a pissing contest
its hard
thought i was gonna kms today
ok byew
i do something i regret and lose my streak on thm ๐ฆ
well still here and shadow just wanna cease to exist without going through the nuclear option
though would probably stop discussing things like that here as that would definitely make others uncomfy
You can always start again ๐
we can put a lot of pressure on ourselves sometimes
Any one knows anything about the drone sightings in New Jersey?
take care
@boreal scarab Might
When I'm learning technology that I feel is complicated, one part of my brain says "this is complicated" and the other part is like "I bet it is easy for vulnerabilities to exist in this"
Yo, yah, heard about it
there are some news reports about the drone already it seems
i love
sandwhiches
but sometimes
the sandwhich is bad
and i dont like it
but goood sandwhiches, theyre pretty good
just don't eat sketchy gas station sandwiches and get worms that improve you physically and mentally so you have to make a shrunk robot version of yourself so that you can force teh worms to leave your body alone
so true queen
Hello, I have a question. I just tried to read a hash with hashcat. And now it tells me to look it up with show, but I have no idea how that works. ?
good job for bragging about your antidepressant dose
what do youo mean look it up with show
is this a room?
Played Lol in 2012 ...
hmmmmmm is shadow paranoid enough for considering getting this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3LtLyuaBvI

look in the potfile
@sand trench can i dm
quick general questions about THM badges and vpn:
- When you get a certificate, can you add your real name to it later if it's not currently in your profile? Or do you have to have that set at the time of generation?
- What is the difference between the VPN servers like US-West-Regular-1 and US-West-VIP-1?
sure bee
you have to have that set at point of generating the certificate of completion
- No
- they are in diffrent places.
how do i find this i am still a beginner
I was looking at that the other day! ๐
thanks shadow and uncle.
Are the VIP ones faster or have less load or something?
in your kali linux home folder there is a .hashcat folder
oh, the VIP ones are for subscribers
in there is your pot file
Likely to have a lot less people accessing them
ahh okay thx
Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #3 - 2016)
not sure where it is stored on windows though
hi esqlqlqlqlylqyqyy
Sup Jazz ๐
Thanks for the info - I'm currently using AttackBox only because my main PC can't virtualize, but want to get that fixed in the next few months (new mobo/cpu required) so I can use my own VM - just planning for how I'll set it up.
vip servers are for subscribers and have less users connected to them so can give slightly better performance and have harder time getting overloaded
@sand trench I do feel safer knowing there are functions like explicit_bzero() which can help secure erase secrets from memory, like keys etc.
going for a fancy dinner with my gf later :) decent day. how about yourself
How fancy we talking? Top hat? Monocle?
hey does anyone want me to build them a custom keyboard for cost of parts and shipping?
like a corne???
Ooh. Not had a good steak in ages.
sorry there is nothing
a corne?
small form factor split keyboard
most of which requires soldering
is this a plan to treat yourself to one? ๐
i could do that
i mean
if youre okay with me learning soldering onyour build LOL
might take longer so i can make sure i get it right
haha nah just asking because someone might ask for split keyboards
Sandwich - Nah. I'd wanna go big and go somewhere medium fancy
generally they wont but thats always a possibility
already got the upgraded corne called a unicorne from boardsource
just buy one from the grocery store and make it
ezpz
doesnt need to be fantastic
its still good
I dunno man. Cooking a steak is an art form ๐
yeah but its not hard
butter in pan
sizzling hoot
steak in pan
baste
google how long it takes
for your desired done-ness
rare all the way
I know a thing or two about meat, I can validate that ๐
So is hacking the gibson. Connect to it. enter commands. copy garbage file. Leave
Rex - How do you usually have your steaks?
Hello
Hiya! I tried to say your name out loud.. and I cant ๐
gr33tings
welcome to the server
listening to podcast
Which podcast?
{vel-croh--craw}
I'm on day 3. Gonna smash them tomorrow ๐
then power up +
Hi as part of Advent of Cyber 2024!
Marty and Rick
Hiya Marty! What day are you up to?
I just started! Just followed TryHackMe on a bunch of social media pages. lol. Working my way through Week 1 rn! A little late to the game but hoping to catch up this weekend!
Haha, Me too! I'll race ya tomorrow!
you have days, no rush
you can do all challenges on last day
haha
soil has ๐ชฑ vulnerabilities
Cross seed scripting
Somthing about root.
weak plant seed
Theres something there, but maybe too obvious
23:00 UTC December 31, should have plenty time to spare to watch fireworks (if you live in that timezone)
i dont know, haven't given my username that much thought

Breathing lowkey hurts tonight
why?
I dunno I had a cold and recovered but my chest been hurting the last two days
are you on a mission of pentesting and need to breath all quiet?
from the paint fumes?
The windows were open, also I used resin for years and was okay
cold , the lingering impact on your ๐ซ
@rapid merlin save me
Close all your windows, restart the flat and open all the windows again
have your covid ๐ ?
Okay ๐
We're talking about EXPENSIVE reasurants, and how it's good... I say it makes 0 sense and bad
The Covid test came back negative
But so much going around at the moment
yay for negative
Expensive restaurants taste gross and you donโt even get fed enough
They're all expensive at the moment ๐ฆ
mcdonalds used to be cheap, costs lots to get few things
You need that grotty ally pop up food tent
True
Yeah, but thats costs more because 'organic gourmet artiesnal'
Paying for two comes to like ยฃ15
Which is a joke
yea, it is ridicukous
I remember when happy meals were ยฃ2
leaving the typo haha
yep
ok pal
TRUEEE
I read it out loud ๐
The chair next to my bed is redicukous
How do you have your steak Jazz?
Eheh
medium rare
Pervy joke
hi sandwich
Standard. Any sauce or anything?
great choice ๐
I dunno rex. i tried a rare steak. Don't think i can go back
๐ฅฆ how are you?
any fun plans for the weekend?
๐ฆ is typing
just the AoC, gym, and likely switching my laptop to KDE Linux
A good peppercorn sauce is lush
last night i was outfor dinner with some corporate partners paying and i got some garlic butter on it. was pretty good, otherwise, i like mushrooms with my steak
Ooh. all good choices
Iโve never had this
you haven't lived
I like KDE
KDE is cool ๐ซ
I donโt think Iโve even ever seen it
beans?
the graphics are nice and they have the task bar where is supposed to be, down the screen. I hate all that up screen shite ๐
KDE is the one steamdeck desktop mode is based on right?
Beanssss
beans means ๐
nooooo, task bar is anything BUT the bottom. KDE lets you style it however you want
just have a task circle. dead centre of the screen
that is option in one of the distros
that sounds very console gaming UI ๐
Haha, like a quick-tool wheel
when you installed it by default is on the bottom, other wm the taskbar is up and you can't change it or it's very complicate to do it.
i never like my distro to look like windows ๐คฎ so i style it and spend the time to do that
hi I need help I'm in this room and when I try to type the answer to verify nothing happen, it doesn't let me to submit, can anyone help?
https://tryhackme.com/r/hacktivities/search?roomType=challenge&contentSubType=free&page=5&order=most-popular
if the taskbar is down all the other things are negotiable ๐
you like the task bar on the bottom due to those small t rex arms
I just paste in please help
due like always was at the bottom, and I'm used to that.
this is general chat
oh well, your computer so you can have it your own way
then wait, posting the same in different channels won't get you help any faster, actually the opposite you probably will annoy people.
plus it is friday so people are less likely to be on discord
sry I'm just in a rush
that's OK by me, what I hate that recently all the taskbars are up and are kind of stuck there, or it's very difficult to move it, and once you move it, the icons and other things aren't properly set
i agree that users should be able to customize your distro
if you're in a rush, go investigate and google things. People here are volunteers, so they'll get to your question when they have time.
That, is also half of cybersec / pentesting; being able to research and improvise your own fixes/solutions when others fail
One could make a valid argument that it's the most important part
When I was a kid I wanted to play a video game really bad yet had to wait for my Dad to help me install it. I tried to do it myself and broke the computer. I had 2 hours before my Dad came home to get it fixed in time. Out came the manuals! ๐
Also research and thinking outside the box are great skills to harness. It's great to bounce ideas with other people, not so great when you ask for "help" but what you really means is give me the answer ๐
or at least having the skills and knowledge to piece together other solutions / suggested fixes
hints is more favorable
That aswell
idk my headphones are charging rn so ๐ญ
I lied down and forgot to put them on charge so I'm just here like ๐
oh no
yeah I'm just sitting here passing time so I can continue studying kek
const at_desk = true
na I'm at my desk now; was lying down though ๐ญ
that's why I always have a pair of wire ones just in case.
I pace around a lot, so wired ones break a lot ๐ญ
i use the ones with wires you plug into the device
do have bluetooth pair but i dont use it much
yeah I wanted to get the razor kitty headphones, parents didn't approve ๐
I just like them they're so adorable ๐ญ
I need to get myself a fidget toy or something
those are fun
I have 2 pairs of wireless and a wire one. Call me crazy but I don't like to be in a situation where I want to use headphones and I can't
yeah it might help, since idk, I can rarely ever sit still / focus for any task longer than 10-15m,
Tell me someting I don't know ๐ ๐
if I can sit still in a quiet calm area for more than 3m it's a cause for celebration
the podcast i am listening to is almost over. (that is something you dont know)
what podcast
Hard Fork
are not all forks hard???
haha
I'd have thought you'd been asleep by now shadow
time for floorp floop past
well can go and lie in bed for 10+ hours with no sleep
that is shadow sleep
yeah that is what shadow does
seems like so many levels of sleeping
A blind guy was walking down the street and stumble upon a guy who told him, ohh you're blind. The blind guy said "Tell me something I don't know" and the guy said there is a tree over there ๐ ๐
just basically go offline except for youtube if shadow don't just toss and turn
count the ๐ง ?
would get a lot of different ones then until shadow got about 2040
nice
haha
well just to make const feel comfy shadow will now go sleep sloop to the beep boop for the meep moop
@blazing granite blind brute force cracking https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYM4QKMg12o
also will push this here: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/unidentified-drones-sighted-over-us-air-base-germany-spiegel-reports-2024-12-13/
from Jew Jersey to Germany mystery drones
guess there will be a lot of new airspace defence for those places nowish
I'm guessing not all countries have strict laws about flying drones?
or maybe states etc.
around critical locations like air bases and pipelines??? most do
heck even sweden have stric laws about not flying drones near police stations and up
Anybody here know / how hydra outputs can be saved to a file
hydra command | tee blargh-hydra.log
ya I just used tee
hydra is cool
-o for output?
hey anyone know where i can find some hydra wordlists?
"write found login/password pairs to FILE instead of stdout"
/usr/share/wordlists
try with seclists from github
and now meep moop to beep boop for sleep sloop
seclists keeps getting updated so keep that as a reference
Yeah I saw that too, but I'm pretty sure that only saves correct/valid pairs; I wanna save them all so I can have the list in my notes for this room
ah!
yeah, also never know whether it's gonna be useful
I noticed it reveals the user-agent to a httpd https://github.com/vanhauser-thc/thc-hydra/blob/03cdc31f98098cf52129d32d5cb604875538560a/hydra-http.c#L57
surprised that was not configurable

Did that work
Wanna say yes, finally. Freaking Discord lol
Had to restart my phone

you also install cables like I do ๐
I want to make a video game called Fish Hospital now
there are some weird shite in reddit, but not the weirdest I've seen ๐
there is a CT fish scan in the comments ๐
I don't get it, all I can think of is "that's a effing fish" ๐
is this tell me there is 244 inside the server 244 files right?
244 lines
what wc stands for?
yeah sorry
yes, you got it ๐
so we couldnt do it with cat we can do it with grep right because cat will not read whole that \
access log in every linux have it?
for future references, if you do man wc and look what -l does, you'll have your anwser right there ๐
I also remember the first time someone showed me this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_(Unix)#Useless_use_of_cat
cat is a standard Unix utility that reads files sequentially, writing them to standard output. The name is derived from its function to (con)catenate files (from Latin catenare, "to chain").
It has been ported to a number of operating systems.
The other primary purpose of cat, aside from concatenation, is file printing โ allowing the computer u...
in the future I will see it again ??
if you plan to use Linux regularly wc is a one of the many commands that you'll use regularly, but anyways the point I was trying to make is that if you don't know what a command does in Linux use man "command" and I'm pretty sure you'll have your answer ๐
I know it
you know it, so it's easier to ask than write man wc and read ๐ ๐

it is means that ip is visit this web server
yes
also what you're asking is written right there? Are you reading the screen???
It's like seeing a note saying "I went to the supermarket" and ask, did he go to the supermarket? ๐
it is a good idea we move room help to the right channel
sometimes a language barrier can make it difficult, if that is the case in this situation
if there is a language barrier use google translate to understand what is written
that is a good idea

I have an old computer I want to experiment with, would yall suggest kali or parrot os
Neither, don't daily drive kali/parrot
If you want to daily drive Linux, I'd suggest something such as Mint, Debian or Ubuntu
If it's your first time away from Windows, I'd suggest Mint as it's layout is extremely similar
Itโs not going to be my main computer, I have another so I want to experiment with the old one
My point stands, don't daily drive it
it's a bad idea, anybody else here will tell you the same time
I think I misunderstand what you mean by daily drive then
Using it as your main OS
Just run something like Mint or Debian/Ubuntu
Then download VMWare and run kali off of that
that way then, when Kali inevitably goes boom; it's not all lost
there is nothing
Ok
not advent of cyber
Are we being trolled or this is a reality?
Nope, Skidy has been teasing Dark Mode for a while, guess they finally finished the development of it all
Dark mode ๐
I was expecting the 25th, as a Christmas present, I was wrong
I've been waiting for dark mode for over a year, it's finnaly here. An essential feature for the internet now in my opinion.
if would be close to April, I'd say that's is April's fool, but I guess is already here. It was a long time waiting, I thought it was never going to happen ๐
Honestly dark mode should just be default xP
They've been mentioning it for a while, I guess they got around to it
It probably will be tbh
Same, just highly surprised.
So I just realized thm is a CIA operation to train civilians in semi honeypot sandboxes for the cyberwar vs China
USA is possibly currently losing this war, sentient ai aircraft is currently surveying the nj area, and telecoms have been hacked
The reason the government selected to tell it's citizens to encrypt their msgs is to slow down the breach n buy them time, but it may already be too late
Wagwan people
Hypernormalization of encrypted conversations , transactions etc will becomes the standard
I'm new in cyber security just I've started learning but
I'm very scared will ai agent replace cyber security jobs
Please guys tell me ๐ฅฒ
But I joined this server cuz I'm tryna enter the world of ethical hacking
Damn
Another newbie
I have to say, I've never seen that gif before or heard of "Fanta sea"
Don't you worry, neither am I ๐
Oh now I understand "Fantasy"
I can still bet you know more than me
AI won't fully replace pentesters
Wdym, it's obvious we are attacking real targets in the guise of CTF's helping spread democracy
@rapid merlin but will it reduce the demand???
wdym "demand"
Programmers are already heavily assisted by AI, and they're still in large demand so
I know a lot of thinks ๐
whether it be GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT
You can be my teacher ๐คก
Help me start out fr
What if the Chinese gov secret AI is 4-5 yrs ahead of publicly released AI ? And those drones are actually sentient ai ? They say the movements those drones are doing appear manned, but would liquidy our insides from the g force
Google is going to launch ai agent in January that can find vulnerability and do monitoring
I highly doubt that, secret projects now a day's don't have as much of a impact as before or they literally can't catch up with random people on the internet

Hello and good evening fellow hackers. I have a general question: What's the rule for write ups?? Like if I want to publish stuff over Medium, what am I allowed to use or not use? cheers ๐
Ok got it
Probably because a new room was added to the pathway
i got owned by one milisecond
I'm not too sure about that, I don't doubt China could be far more advanced than we currently are made to believe...the last few weeks have shed many lights on their shadow operations
Telecoms โ
IT infiltration through remote work โ
Tiktok surveillance โ
What else ?
What's to say the US isn't doing the same thing?
It's more like what don't they have ?
Why are you so worried about China though?
That's not farfetched either, it could b friendly spy drones
Well that msg about telecoms seemed rly.. almost too...amateur like a set up for staging an enemy
If we found them, they're not as advance as you think they're.
Why would they just suggest to encrypt msgs to the entire American populace, that doesn't even use different passwords or care about online security
Exactly , so it's prob staged
Seeding the psyop
What pubically traded company leads the way in encryption?

Hello guys.
Recently, can anyone tell this is a positive/false malware? I'm trying to download obsidian to import my notes from Notion because I found it very useful to use.
Malware:
Bkav Pro W32.AIDetectMalware
Let me know your thoughts and experiences on the malware and Obsidian.
Do you store exploits or hashes in your notes?
No, I do not.
Scanned the Obsidian.exe file through Virus Total though. So, cannot confirm if it's positive/false malware.
Reddit, Google says sometimes it can be false ๐ค
Uh oh
The server is HAL9000
Me and the gang are chilling right now
Enjoy ๐

Not bad.
AI is one of the blessings of this century, "Perhaps"
I guess you just google that topic
Or draw one and look what is the format for logos
And the size
You can also ask AI to make a logo for you
Have you just admitted to cheating?
thank you!
Gave +1 Rep to @cloud quiver (current: #7 - 1253)
I think you need to have a re-look over the rules.
can you expand on that
No self-promotion. You are welcome to post your write-ups, walkthroughs, and streams of TryHackMe content in #thm-community-media or the relevant Recent Releases Help channel, but please don't use this Discord as a place to advertise. [See More]
It states it in rules...
I said it from the beginning
but I followed the rules
it says you are welcome to post your wirte ups and streams
and walkthrougs
that is what I did
and I didnt even post the link
so I posted it in the wrong channel then?
if that is the case I apologize
Morning
No?
Sounds to me like you did
Totally not. Listen, listen...
I can explain
I have just verified that the AI is effective, that's all
I already knew the answers beforehand

I studied hard
Would you like a shovel to dig the hole further?
I would like a caterpillar excavator please.

Only have shovels, would be cheating otherwise

IMO AI is just copyright infringement with extra steps, at least for that part
AI is wikipedia for the lazy xD
did you read what happened to the OpenAI dev?
I never understand why creativity is shamed
Haven't followed the news much on that front
Finding a way to solve something is never bad
It's not creativity it's derivation
AI cannot be creative
Those who studied know where to look and write and solve everything
That was the idea of lecturers
he caught them doing copyright stuff that's against the law or something and he "commit suicide" the next day
That also means the exam is more difficult
Those who might not remember everything perfectly, but have read the material will always know where to look and solve everything and pass with high grades
The idea was that those who try deserve
But I mean, we have an office, so they basically want us to pass
Otherwise nothing stops them from doing a test on place
There is no Covid measures now
We were usually allowed a double-sided A4 cheat sheet with formulae
Was never good at maths, but I wrote every single thing the teacher talked about
My notebooks were thicker than the bible\
Just for that the teacher always let me pass barely
same, was only good to have formulas but when you dont know how to proceed .. woop xD
Cause at least I was listening and writing, doing something
I was good in geometry
Was fun solving volume of all sorts of objects
Reminds me when I wanted to solve the volume of the laundry machine back at home after classes in high school
financial maths made me cry ๐ฎ
Thank God I have no maths in my bachelor

Guys what is the best laptop for Cyber Security ?
I think it is a good topic
Sounds like a plan
the one you can use ๐
I dont think there is one specifically for such a purpose
I have a Lenovo Legion Slim 5
K
actually yes, thats a good topic
32Gigs of ram
May update to 64
But at least in my thesis I will put much effort
Because I like writing and also it will basically be my first book
probably around 200 pages
i would recommend a lenovo thinkpad, refurbished, you can get them for cheap and they are solid. but not usefull for gaming at all.
Expensive
What @half girder said
i saw a lenovo on amazon for just 200 bucks, just an i5, nothing fancy at all, but absolutely fine for putting a linux on
plus lenovo hardware is fully supported, so no bad surprises
They're the workstation class yeah
Is there anything more powerful
Can probably get away with a T
I like my legion, but I really wanted a business class laptop
X I think
i love my asus tuf ^^
Best I can spare at any given point for a laptop is 2k$
For like the next 5-6 years
I had an Asus Rog Strix
Still doing a great job, but gave it to my family
ASUS also didn't fail me
ill keep my notebook for like 3-4 more years, then i might get a lifestyle product like macbook pro or so
Some people say asus aren't that good, but I can't say much bad about it
They're...fine I guess
I dislike the plastic, although it looks nice
I like my legion more
I will probably stick to lenovo only from now on
Dell looks good but is darn expensive
hm didnt have bad experience with asus yet, price / quality is ok
bottom line you get what you pay
System76 may be worth a look if you're in the US. Framework looks nice as well
Whatever fits your purpose.
And budget
Yup!
Better than lenovo?
Also it's meant for Linux?
I have 2 nvmes on my laptop
One with Ubuntu and the other one with my windows
Usually cheaper
Linux is generally better for InfoSec than windows imo, can always shove a windows in a VM
well there are more tools available for linux these days
I want to jump over to Linux, but I am afraid that there is more software available for Windows than Linux
For example Cisco Packet Tracer
For my CCNA studies
looking to get CCNA
VM ๐
Hi
bro we have to use something called VM
Hello!
Hello ๐ , welcome ๐
Thank you !
Gave +1 Rep to @cloud quiver (current: #7 - 1256)
To expand on what the others said - A lot of us use Virtual Machines (VM). The popular software for it are VirtualBox(VB) and VMware. VB is a lot easier find and download. The basic concept is that the software runs another operating system in a window on your computer. Like this:
the benefit of this is that you can try out different operating systems. If they break or don't work - It's no big deal, as you can just fire up a new one. Theres also a feature where you can take a 'snapshot'. This is basically a 'save point'. so if you mess it up completely, you can just roll back to when it worked ๐
As for software - you are correct in some ways. LOADS of everyday software is made for Windows. It's the most common operating system after all. For Hacking though, many of the tools we use are basically just programs/scripts run from the terminal (command line in Linux).
Don't forget kvm/qemu ๐
morning
I didn't forget them. They were omitted on purpose :p
Hiya Bella. Hows the bike? the one you soaped up the brakes on ๐
I haven't soaped the brakes!
I just use brake cleaner to remove rust and stuff from screws 
ok ok ok. I just found it funny :p
I mean.. I least you HAVE a bike. I don't ๐ฆ
the carburetor is laying at my dinner table
Perhaps I projecting my envy.
Is that all that needs doing to it?
and a new radiator, possibly also changing spark plugs
Cable and a radiator.. doesnt seem so bad
I mean, I can still run with the current radiator
but might be good to change for optimal performance
So it's not busted or anything, just worn?
yeee
on of my dreams is to restore a Triumph Bonneville. Literally just don't have the space. not even a corridor-sized basement ๐ฆ
understandable
Now that I'm a grumpy old dude, The seating position of the sports/naked bikes is killer on my back after about half an hour of riding
Which is a shame, cos I loved my Speed triple
I need to figure out something for pulling out a stripped screw on my carb
Screw remover bits?
possibly, I just don't have any tools tbh
I got 0 money 
Also don't use Philips heads
previous owner 
Also, probably what was already on the carb
yee
Elastic band?
Don't replace with Philips then
yeah, was thinking that
I can get them for you if you want. Just share the amazon wishlist (If it works internationally)
If you want to destroy my sweater ๐ถ
don't worry, might get some more tools for christmas and I have 3-4 months before it has to be on the road again
Well, the offer is there. I have mad respect for people who have a go at fixing stuff
I fix all the cars and motorcycles I own
hi if any one want to purchase Youtube channel ??
And you don't have screw/bolt removers? Looks like you've been lucky ๐
makes me relax and think of nothing but just how to get through ๐
ok then fix my bike
yeah, I never strip screws
W. Like my unc
this one was stripped before I got to work on it ๐ฆ
Hold this thread as you walk away?
Eh. stripping screws happens. Doesnt matter how careful you are
the previous owner also used self drilling screws on the plastic covers ๐ฆ
Eww
Hey there. Could I ask what transfeminine means? I do not have any bad or judgemental intentions I'm just asking if I could know
YESSS SCRUBZ
transgender to the feminine side
Oh ty!
so not 100% female, but feeling mostly feminine
I seen Weezer live around 2006-2010
Can't quite remember.
F U. I WISH
Haha Weezer. Thats a blast from the past ๐
and I didn't even get the original reference
Nah. Only a few of us are
๐ญ
I know, I have used it
I just want to use some things bare metal
ouch ๐ฆ
Damn
I'm only 21 ๐ญ
oxmc - You can always dual boot. but yeah, 2 laptops works aswell
Ookie
I do
I have 2 nvmes
One with Ubuntu and windows
anyone got recommendations for laptops under 1k?
1k...Dollars? Pounds? Rupees? Euros?
We are a diverse community ๐
Well.. I got an Acer Nitro from Currys for ยฃ700.
Real
That was for work though
@blazing granite is a bit of a foodie
There's a difference w cooking for survival and cooking for passion imo ๐
But personally - No. Never been a fan of cooking. Pasta and cheese is my forte
yes im smoll
Go to Croydon if you come to the uk has the best views๐ญ ๐
Gtkkk how do you eat then?
Well, I eat the past with a fork.
Huza - I'm based in plymouth. got views for DAYS here ๐

I mean is there a partner?
No One - My family own a chain of pizza places. So.. yeah. That ๐
Ohh!! Pizza everyday? Wowa
Hope it prospers !!
For real.. I don't actually eat all that much.
No One - Have you heard of Domino's Pizza?
Yes
Yah. My family have 12 stores of that
No one has heard of Domino's Esqy
WHAA
It's quite a small brand, Bella. not surprising
badum tss
Yep. It's called 'franchising'
Hehe. You can even ping me for the joke idm
Wow. That's awesome
Me wants to buy a stainless steel pan
And a sharpener for my new knife
basically we own a company which has pizza shops. We pay Domino's a 'Royalty' in order to use their branding. As part of that, we need to buy all our stock from them and keep up to their brand standards.
Theres pros and cons with it as a model
Pretty cool!
setting up a franchise expenisve no?
Can be yeah, but thats the investment
fair play
Mum n Dad sold the house, the car and stuff in order to get the first shop
the investment paid off then๐
Thatโs dedication
worth the risk
Well, there was a bit of a cheat-code. once all of us lot were old enough to get ourselfves to school, Mum picked up Temp work in the Domino's Head office. So she was able to see what was happening, and saw a shop was up for sale on the other side of the country.
hey, Is there anyone who can't solve this question like me?
Scary stuff, but hey. 20 years later, here we are
maybe cause it's not local cache?
what room is it?
Introductory Networking
Don't copy of writeups, read the information given to you again
Big fan of cooking with stainless
Also recommend cast iron
What does the hint say?
It's outlined in big bold letters
Damn I remember that room
HIHI. man I'm a complete broke beginner. Is it THAT BAD if I buy a pan max 50$?
Cast iron tends to be very cheap
Yeah... I won't buy cast iron though
Yeah, but cast iron needs to be cared for and stuff. Like having a pet ๐
It's a bit of work to get it going but then it's fine
You can add write ups to thm website right ? But no one can read them? Curious
I have no idea if I want to buy stainless which is more versatile and for proteins or a cheap aah nonstick. Not that I'm afraid of using a stainless I'm just thinking which one I'd use more daily
i got given a wok a couple of years ago. Still not used it because I can't be bothered to go through the process of seasoning it
That's drastically overstated
Wash it by hand with dish soap, steel wool, whatever and it's all good
My stove is a very small one and it literally doesn't even do for such heavy pan
I can read them? Hahaha
did you find the answer for the quesiton?
nah
No but I mean can someone random read yours ?
Yes
It was a stupid joke withy name โค๏ธ nvm it
How would I read someone elseโs write ups on the thm website
read it again all answers should be in the room
They're in the writeups section
Writeups are published articles, linked to from that section
Oh damn๐ we are still in the morning over here. Iโm still waking up
Ohhhh Iโve never seen this
@naive violet hey man, stupid question. How do I know how hot my kitchen is? I never understood how someone even professional knows how to cook the same well in different tops!! Each kitchen have different temps!
It's okayyy!!! May a beautiful girl(or potato pot!!) like u have a beautiful morning โค๏ธโค๏ธ take care
The temperature of the kitchen is less important for cooking, compared to baking
Unless you mean how how the pan is?
You develop an intuition for how hot the pan is, based on how oil/food/water behaves in the pan
Thank you, you too
Gave +1 Rep to @half badge (current: #845 - 5)
Yeah about the pan. Cause for my stove I turned the button to 3 and in 4 minutes the pan was too hot for water to glide so ig 1 is for low heat? I mean when someone says "high heat" how I could know what setting it is
Ty!
I have a little thermometer in my flat that tells me the temperature and humidity of the room
Lmaoo
isn't your flat a rainforest?
cooking is a skill comes naturally overtime
Thatโs why! ๐
Isn't 1 2 3 very limited in temps? And I guess it would mean low medium and high heat? But in another kitchen my high heat would be they're medium heat? Or they have more settings. Haha confusing for a beginner
It's just how much you open the gas valve if it's a burner
I assume. Like I said, I don't cook often. boiling water is easy :p
Cooking is less exact and precise than baking
Yeah. Usually you can tell if the onions are sizzling or the water is boiling. I just was confused because they said "in 190 degrees the water glides" or something and I was like how could I ever know the degrees?? Haha. But tysm for replying
So it's the other way around
By how the water behaves, you can tell the rough temperature
Did yall read the news, they found Santa
@silver sky <-- there he is.
No like actually, they found the tomb of Saint Nicholas
Ty
Gave +1 Rep to @naive violet (current: #2 - 2224)
Ohh. If dad is santa. Then santa doesn't exist โบ๏ธ
(sorry I love dark humour)
Humour so bad the entire server went offline
anyone who's know RE need help with a task
so rude ๐
Yes, I am. I've been around and dinned in fine restaurants, even with Michelin starts ๐
It's not rude to assume a server has on average more old people? Sir
If anything it's logical for the context of the server
What is this task for? THM?
you'd be surprised. There are waaay more 15-25 year old on here thank you think
nop
I mean when I say old I don't mean 70. I mean compared to me 25 is older but I don't even consider @blazing granite someone that old in general! Just compared to me โค๏ธ
Lots of love and respect to the elder
What's it for then?
I worked in restaurants kitchens too, I got some experience there, living alone I don't cook a lot for me, but yes I can cook
hi
would it generally be better practice to start with soc related content before venturing into pentesting?
Amit - Shrug. Do what you find interesting.
a learning task i got
need to extract something from a file
actually m newbie myself
From school?
need help plz
respect the elder even worst ๐ ๐
๐
Uh
kinda
but for a friend
ok
do uk RE?
I'm just joking ๐
Okay
whats that?
joking? thats not like you, Rex. You are always so serious.
I'm probably the oldest here
reverse engineering
oh
so the conflict for me is, my friend who works in cybersecurity said I'd be better off starting with SOC rather than pentesting skills, so generally I wanted to know or gather some other POV's
That's a good idea
are you doing re?
I'm a jester at heart ๐ I even did some stand up comedy on open mic day when I was living in NYC
For real. Study the stuff that you find interesting and/or related to the job you want (If thats your goal)
We don't help with school work here,
Today, I'm doing the ULTIMATE enumeration. Figuring out what to get fam and friends for xmas ๐ฎ
Idk hope I didn't offend anyone truly... wasn't my intention
Yeah
25 people to buy for. Not fun ๐
No One - honestly, It's a challenge to annoy people on here. Especially use oldies.
Good to have such passion at your age or any age. Good job
So, don;'t worry about it ๐
Okieee. Also idm pinging me because I'm not active and I may miss something addressed to me
Fair enough. still not a fan of pinging people :p
Except when they might bge the best person to contribute to the conversation
Sooo.. I ping Rex more than others :p
if you go soc or pentesting, you need to learn the foundations, get comfortable with the basic, understand how things work, then when you have that nail down you can go either route. It's true you can get more "entry position" in a soc than as a pentester
At your age ๐ that sound like you think the other person is 200 years ๐
@half badge I have many passions. I'm a sommelier, I worked in IT for many years, I worked as front desk receptionist, and reservation department of a few hotel, also as tour operator. I lived in 5 countries and speak many languages.
Shrug. It's just a me thing, I guess.
Dude honestly never mind ๐. I am respectful to those who are at me. I'd rather we stop the conversation here.
Tf..
