[brittle drum]

😄

[zinc harness]

what are you guys learning right now

[cursive crag]

any suggestions for learning programing or where to start

[keen talon]

Linux fundamentals part 3 , task 4. Any idea why I am getting this error?

Hello, everyone. I am having an issue. Can anyone give me some tips on how to fix it?

[pliant cairn]

python

typo

[keen talon]

Ouh... silly mistake.. 😂

Thanks

[brittle drum]

Harder teeth fall faster, the fast runner gets tired first.

[pliant cairn]

plenty of book and videos and articles. josh hamadani videos are good for starts.

[brittle drum]

Try codewar

[cursive crag]

josh hamadani ill give it a search and any particular books

[brittle drum]

After a lot of darkness was swallowed, a new galaxy full of light was formed

[small badge]

i missed my delivery and now i gotta go outside and pick it up its too cold for this

[brittle drum]

Why use books initially? You should try and learn from practical platforms available

[keen talon]

Ok. quick question. How do I "enable" streak freeze?

[small badge]

you dont

[keen talon]

It's automatic?

[small badge]

yeah

[keen talon]

Aha, gotcha

[brittle drum]

Use somethin freezy nd cold may be

[cursive crag]

i totally agree i just going to use everythoing at my finger tips tho coding scares the shit out of me ahaha

[keen talon]

Me too. Coding is "hard"

[brittle drum]

U may have many personal ai assistant, try.

[brittle drum]

In this AI era, the question has changed. It should be: Is coding necessary?

[cursive crag]

it is thats why im going to dive in

[vernal matrix]

guys will js benefit me in cyber security?

i just switched career from web dev to cyber security

[cloud quiver]

It's a must in web app pentesting 🙂

[cursive crag]

idk about ML though that gets really technical

[vernal matrix]

well ok

[vernal matrix]

wait what

im in red teamming

@cloud quiver

[cloud quiver]

Yeah 🙂 . Most web apps use some form of JS to function

Especially on front-end

[vernal matrix]

so i wont use it for red teamming

[cloud quiver]

Web app pentesting/bug bountry is part of red teaming

[brittle drum]

Don't switch swords if you wants to be a master. I've noticed all strong masters had two swords.

[naive violet]

Red Teaming, as a role, is a whole thing
Pentesting is a part of the red team, but doesn't make you a red teamer

You don't go straight into red teaming, that's something that requires a good amount of experience

[modest cargo]

can someone hepl me

[brittle drum]

Yes

[modest cargo]

i m in the first room of the event, the youtube converter

[vernal matrix]

so what is red tramming

what is pentesting

[brittle drum]

After a lot of darkness was swallowed, a new galaxy full of light was formed.

bro why do u talk like that😆

[modest cargo]

but it says e enter a valid youtube url

[cursive crag]

does AOC give any level exp?

[grizzled wing]

[valid canyon]

ah ty and sry

[sinful moon]

I need help with my room, it's so small and it feels like the walls are closing in. What do, I don't think python or infosec tools will help in this case

It's filling me with extenential dread as we speak

[small badge]

@sick lance these

[grizzled wing]

explain what is the problem?

[boreal scarab]

Blue. Paint your walls a light blue. It gives your mind the sense that it's more open

[small badge]

just wanted to double check if it is i wont do it again

[tame bane]

use rockyou.txt trust me

[sick lance]

Too many, yeah.

[sinful moon]

the walls, they're closing in on me

[grizzled wing]

like in Star Wars?

[sinful moon]

nah not a trash compactor, but figratively

[small badge]

alright soz

[tame bane]

Any chance anyone has like a challenge pathway/infographic type thing?

[sinful moon]

I mean the main learning page has been restructed into such already

[grizzled wing]

i use Obsidian canvas for some CTFs to map out the steps and sequence

[sinful moon]

Oh challenge, fair enough

[sturdy pike]

https://tenor.com/view/rip-and-tear-doom-doomguy-isabelle-isabelle-animal-crossing-gif-26156184

[tame bane]

Yeah, i'm just trying to think a way to blend learning courses & CTF's pretty much. At this rate I'll finish offensive security before I do CTFs. Maybe I'll just take a week or two off from courses and just do CTFs.

[sinful moon]

Not to suggest the competitor too much, but the beginner HackTheBox challenges are also perfect for when you're just getting started with CTFs, before they let you do just any box

if you know enough to nmap sus ports and then look for exploits for those sus exposed services, you'll be more than fine there

Ramps up in difficulity a good bit after that but yeah shouldn't be too difficult to get started

[exotic vector]

I should start CTFs if knowing enough to nmap sus ports and look for exploits is enough to start lol

[tame bane]

nmap -sV -sC baby

only learned what that actually did 3 months after I started using it xD

[sinful moon]

Yeah you're set. Can also go full -T4 when you're attacking approved non-production stuff like this to dramatically speed things up

[grizzled wing]

T4 wowza

[exotic vector]

When Im using a tool I like to read into it a bit more so I fully understand what its doing

[sinful moon]

lol things only start to break at -T5 so we're fine for dedicated infosec learning :p

[grizzled wing]

gobuster is a tool i like, its so positive sounding go buster, you can do it!"

[sinful moon]

lol cute, and yeah gobuster is lovely indeed

[exotic vector]

gives me 70s/80s super robot vibes

[grizzled wing]

meep morp boop

[exotic vector]

can imagine the teenage main character pointing and shouts with reverb "go buster!!!" and a super robot phases into existence just behind the main character before jumping in front of them.

[sand trench]

dude there is 3 c:s in cappuccino

[sinful moon]

I can totally see that but I'm having a hard time not just hearing the Ghost Busters theme instead

Who you gonna call, Go Buster!

I was basically raised on my dad's super robot anime vhs tapes that are totally just a western dub rebranded.

[sinful moon]

lol totally fair. I was raised on a ton of my parents media, but I had to discover anime for myself

[grizzled wing]

VHS , the old days be kind and rewwind

[sinful moon]

I wore our Disney renassance tapes out dramatically via rewatchng as a kid lol

[exotic vector]

where its just the starting episodes turned into a standalone thing. The one I remember was called Starvenger but its literally the first 2-3 episodes of Getter Robo Go.

....I had the entire collection.... like every single disney vhs release in the 90s

[sinful moon]

Have you seen Gunbuster?

[exotic vector]

yes

[sinful moon]

Heck yes, love it

[sturdy pike]

totally!

dunno why I'm always energetic like this tho..

[grizzled wing]

its fun!

[sturdy pike]

agreed!

[grizzled wing]

[sturdy pike]

I don't feel satisfied until I give in 6-12 hours productivity in my day

[little siren]

12 hours

[grizzled wing]

"givin' it Frizzy"

[sinful moon]

There is also something to be said about relaxing after working 8 hour days however

[exotic vector]

im now only 7 away from finishing AoC, im doing 2 more tasks today depending how long those tasks are maybe 4 then the rest tomorrow

[sick lance]

I have so much AoC to do, I just might not.

[rapid merlin]

Took the kitten vets, they said he’s fine

I also got him chipped

[sinful moon]

Honestly just going to wait for January at this point 🙃

[wild rose]

[sinful moon]

especially when I'm back at work today, but I do have more pressing home lab concerns even if erm, dicking off

[wild rose]

I also need to get half of AoC done soon too.

[sinful moon]

the fun ESXi to Proxmox migrations, common theme

[wild rose]

I'll try to get some done between AV and Vuln scans today.

[sinful moon]

They've done many things that pissed me off, but making VMUG downloads locked behind certificates is just dumb dumb dumb

[wild rose]

so smoll

[rapid merlin]

I told him he wasn’t allowed to sleep on my laptop earlier so he started sleeping on my shoulder 😆

[exotic vector]

I need to remake mine v_v

[exotic vector]

awwww

[rapid merlin]

Parrot

[wild rose]

QT

[sinful moon]

I would have been happy to continue with my VMUG sub if not for this change, just insane

[sturdy pike]

I mean, breaks in between ofc

[sinful moon]

They really don't want people learning how their software works indipendantly anymore, the final F U to even the home lab community who were willing to pay $200 a year previously

[sturdy pike]

"Galactic Destroyer"?

[rapid merlin]

The vet couldn’t hear his heart beat because all she could hear was him purring 🤣

[sinful moon]

nice hat you have on Spike there additionally

Gitlab

I just had to bail out Network team out 😭😭 @sinful moon

[sinful moon]

lol how so? Hard to be making mistakes on probably one of the biggest read only Fridays there is

[opaque flax]

He restarted a hypervisor and it wasn’t coming back online

It has Idrac in it

[sinful moon]

ouch lol

[opaque flax]

He didn’t know how to access the Idrac

[sinful moon]

Well I mean, yeah that'll restore it

ouch lol

that is very important info

[opaque flax]

He was like how do you access it?

[wild rose]

i wanted to pick up Iris for a cuddle but my partner said fir her to sleep.

[opaque flax]

I jump on a computer

And go to the ip

Internet still works there’s just no DNS

[sinful moon]

yeah can't complain, already set

I do love me some iDRAC

[opaque flax]

But hopefully I gets me more brownie points with them

[worn turret]

Can i just document on word or google docs

[tame bane]

I hear 1.1.1.3 is what the cool kids use now

[worn turret]

😭

[opaque flax]

Ok

[sinful moon]

vSphere fails, fall back to ESXi, ESXi fails, fall back to iDRAC, iDRAC fails? You're SOL, time to go on site lol

[opaque flax]

You can do whatever you want. Seems like you know what you want so just do what you want

[sinful moon]

missed an extra step just for the Guest OS lol

[sick lance]

Word is the best IDE for coding!

Hands down.

[opaque flax]

We use a combination of hyper-v and esxi

[sick lance]

I'll die on this hill.

[hollow pivot]

That explains your coding skills

[opaque flax]

But anyways I think it’s silly that a “level 1 “ help desk person had to get the NOCs server back up

[sinful moon]

Glad to hear iDRAC saved the day though, yeah love it myself and happy to have it on our home server

[opaque flax]

But it’s good for my career

[sinful moon]

mhmm, especially today of all days lol

[opaque flax]

lol yeah

He was like “I’ve waited 45 minutes and it doesn’t wanna come back up we might have to go onsite!”

[sinful moon]

lolol

[opaque flax]

I love that idrac tho

[wild rose]

45 minutes is like a drive to be onsite.

[lost birch]

what is iDRAC? 🙂

[opaque flax]

I didn’t know it was a thing until I got a job in professional IT

[opaque flax]

It’s like a hypervisor but for only 1 computer

[tame bane]

This is the way.

[opaque flax]

And it’s on a server

[lost birch]

idek what a hypervisor is tbh

let me have a look

[opaque flax]

It’s like a virtual machine manager

[lost birch]

ohhh i see

[sinful moon]

It's a system level monitoring tool (lights out management). It's a whole computer which operates seperately from the server

typically a tiny ARM based board that you access via HTTP(S)

[whole yew]

shots fired

[lost birch]

how does the iDRAC help with VMs?

[high kindle]

Is the soc sim I's a payed feature

[lost birch]

or am i getting it wrong

[sinful moon]

It can power up and down your server even when the server its self is off

[opaque flax]

It doesn’t

It’s just the easiest way for me to describe it

It’s like booting up VMware and telling your vm to turn on

Except it starts a physical server

[sinful moon]

Typically you are running a ESXi or Proxmox or whatever OS on the server. And iDRAC provides you direct remote terminal access to adminstrate this in case of issues

[opaque flax]

Yeah so like the physical server wasn’t coming back up

So I used the iDRAC to turn the physical server on which the. I could do the rest

[whole yew]

@lost birch iDRAC is one of several products that allow for out of band management. Basically, it's a hardwired terminal that has a dedicated network interface. It's very commonly 100% segmented from the network interface used by the 'main' physical hardware.

[sinful moon]

"Lights Out Management" is another term for this technology

[lost birch]

thanks, that makes sense 🙂 so is that the go-to way to boot up a physical server?

[sinful moon]

iDRAC is very specifically for Dell PowerEdge servers

[opaque flax]

If you don’t have someone on site

Yes

[opaque flax]

Yeah there’s also iLo for HP and I think Lenovo has something too

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[whole yew]

Most enterprise networks will have a dedicated network segment that only has the OOBM interfaces, to add a layer of security and separate regular traffic from management traffic

[sick lance]

https://tenor.com/view/oi-bruv-oi-bruh-oi-bro-oi-brother-british-gif-6927238731748484871

[sinful moon]

Yeah we very much segment the VMware and iDRAC management interfaces into their own VLAN for this very concern

[opaque flax]

I will not comment on this

But I’m also not a decision maker so

[sinful moon]

just like lol no just anyone can access our firewalls management interfaces

lol yeah I get you

[opaque flax]

I will also not comment on that

[lost birch]

so i understand segmentation being where you separate devices on a network and isolate traffic, does this mean that it is a way to interact with servers , that is isolated from the other segments on the network?

[sinful moon]

just small/medium business things, I know how it is

[opaque flax]

The reason I can do so much as a “level 1” is cause of that so it helps me get the experience

[lost birch]

and for the other servers you would use a different technology instead of iDRAC?

[sinful moon]

Yep, Mal mentioned some above such as iLo for HP Enterprise servers. Each vendor has their own "lights out management" controllers with different brands

[whole yew]

Typically access to the management segment is governed by a jumpbox or VPN that is the only 'outside accessible' endpoint.

[lost birch]

right that makes sense

[sinful moon]

99% of the time it's a small ARM single board computer which can just boot the server while its off, provide remote terminal and more

[lost birch]

does that help with security?

[opaque flax]

Yeah iDRAC has a bunch of features including health monitoring of the server

[lost birch]

having a separate interface?

[opaque flax]

It’ll alert you when things are dying

[whole yew]

If you'd like to set this up at home, there's a raspberry pi project that basically lets you wire up GPIO on the pi to the power and reset circuits on your pc

[sinful moon]

Yes if you set it up on a secure management network. But it won't "help with security" beyond giving you warnings that someone opened the case or something

[lost birch]

thank you for explaining all this

[whole yew]

for reference on using a rpi for kvm and oob: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIrkEr2AeDY

[lilac saddle]

hey guys, after command mount /dev/cdrom instead of Cd-rom i get /media/cdrom0: no medium found. How i can fix that?

[sick lance]

lsblk

[whole yew]

maybe you should take a step back and look at the mountpoints and connected devices

[sinful moon]

Here's a quick example of Dell iDRAC 8 on my home server (censored obviously)

[whole yew]

i think this is a self-resolving problem once you compare those outputs

[lilac saddle]

ty, I ll try

[lost birch]

ahhh I see!

what do you use your home server for? 🙂

[opaque flax]

Do you not have a home server yet synapse??

[lost birch]

nope 🙂

one of my mates does though

[sinful moon]

Mostly for self hosted containers, but biggest use is media ripping and our media library with Plex/Jellyfin

[opaque flax]

You will get a home server one day

Or 2 or 3

[lost birch]

I need google one sec lol

[opaque flax]

We doin some learning today

[sinful moon]

I will also say you do not need this kind of big iron for most scenerios

but has been massivly helpful for media ripping and ecoding with these dual Xeons

a cute NUC like device or an old computer will do as a home server for most

[opaque flax]

My home servers: 1 is a dell t5500 with 2 old xeons totaling 12 cores and 12gb of ddr3 and a quadro 4000

2: an old gaming pc with a 3600x and 16GB ddr4

[lost birch]

sorry guys I still don't understand containerisation

is that a word or did i make that up

[sinful moon]

Yeah much more reasonable than:

[lost birch]

media ripping makes sense though I can see that being useful

[hollow pivot]

I got a Lenovo thinkcenter recently, quite decent for the price

[lost birch]

oh my goodness

[opaque flax]

Yeah I got my t5500 at an ewaste store for $50

[sick lance]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/introtocontainerisation
https://tryhackme.com/r/room/virtualizationandcontainers

[lost birch]

lol thanks scrubz

[high kindle]

Pretty nice but you got to upgrade 12 gb only and ddr 3 won't be enough for a server from my experience but it still pretty good😁

[sinful moon]

For no GUI and raw compute, that's more than enough

[opaque flax]

I’m 1000% sure I’m just fine

[mellow gull]

If it's just raw computation that's completely fine

[high kindle]

OK then

[sinful moon]

Don't look at my 256GB RAM and think it's actually nessessary

[opaque flax]

I only run a firewall and 2 pihole instances on it and a NAS that’s just a test NAS

[sinful moon]

my SO does not run servers despite my attempts, he runs full GUI enviroments and all

[opaque flax]

I have zero issues with compute

[hollow pivot]

I was wondering if I read it wrong

[sinful moon]

This is also your server, messing around with random OSes is best left to you on your own machine

[lost birch]

does anyone know a cheap machine to run kali on?

[sinful moon]

Nope lol, it is insane. But I think I took this while 3x Windows Server (With GUI) installs were all encoding video at the same time

[mellow gull]

Kali can run on almost anything

[sinful moon]

Don't ask me about it, I would have made those into Linux machines

[opaque flax]

I too have a domain controller

And so does Gaww!

[sinful moon]

Yeah I have a mini AD lab on this

not even going to preserve it when I move to Proxmox, trivial to re-create

[opaque flax]

Thanks ms server trials

[sinful moon]

no comment

[mellow gull]

Every little bit helps

[sinful moon]

But yeah got plenty of pratical AD/GPO knowledge from the 12 domains we managed when I started at this company. That number has fallen but yeah. Still nice to have a playground to test in

[mellow gull]

If you have 4gb of memory, 200gb of storage, a processor younger than 20 years old and at least two cores, you'll be fine. Again, basically anything.

[lost birch]

AWESOME

[sinful moon]

Or you know, also just a VM on your own machine if you have enough RAM

[lost birch]

might get me a lil hacking machine

[lost birch]

yeahh my specs aren't good enough

well they're okay

[sinful moon]

fair enough

[lost birch]

plus I do schoolwork on there, rather isolate it

[mellow gull]

Some people like having dedicated machines. I might still do that at some point but only on account of the fact that I don't have a mobile solution yet. Been tower only for years.

[sinful moon]

heck mine is in a remote data center but that's because I'm a bit more paranoid and also enjoy having babby's first c2 lol

actually an Arch machine but same difference

[opaque flax]

I would figure a cloud would be careful about allowing “attack” machines or c2 servers to be hosted in them

[sick lance]

You'd need permission.

[sinful moon]

Yeah both one, I mainly use a VPN solution since lol this is mainly just interacting with THM or HTB.

And two, I specificially asked them if I could use their platform for vulnlerability scanning with OpenVAS and they were more than accomidating. So I'm not worried

[opaque flax]

Automated or manual vuln scanning or both?

[winter eagle]

hi

[sinful moon]

I mean OpenVAS does a whole bunch of automated scanning techniques when you configue it to scan a host. It's literally a fork of Nessus.

Basically what they told me is "as long as you're not spoofing IP packets, you're fine"

[high kindle]

Can someone explain to me what the difference between hacking lab and a virtual machine aren't they the same?

[opaque flax]

Ah okay I’ve never messed with OpenVAS

[sinful moon]

a lab or a home lab can mean multiple machines while a VM is just one

[opaque flax]

Just a Nessus trial

[sinful moon]

same difference but with worse UI but free and no restrictions

[sick lance]

This depends on the subject.

The virtual machine can be either a "hacking machine" or a target machine.

The "hacking lab" may be a static website you use.,

It may not even have a virtual machine.

The lab could also contain neither.

[mellow gull]

Lab is colloquial terminology for "Thing you use to do/test thing"

[naive violet]

Hacking lab could consist of virtual machines, or hardware, or all sorts

I've got one that only has one computer in it

[opaque flax]

Yeah a virtual machine is just a virtual computer that can do anything. A vm does not have to be a hacking machine

[sinful moon]

Where as an AD Lab for Active Directory testing will typically consist of at least two to three machines, one the Domain Controller, and then a number of clients such as a Win 10 or Win 11 machine which are domained

[sick lance]

@jaunty charm please don't DM without asking.

[sinful moon]

yeah this varies wildly depending on what you need to actually test

[mellow gull]

I use two separate internalized networks for mine. One with some intentionally vulnerable machines running vulnerable software and the other as an isolated AD with server + two clients

[sick lance]

In the rare cases could also be linux.

[sinful moon]

lol we don't speak about Samba DCs

[opaque flax]

Domain joining my Linux machines was a PAIN

So I didn’t do it

[sick lance]

Maybe you don't.

But it can be done, which is my point.

[sinful moon]

No real reason to domain a Linux workstation though, can already get at all the SMB shares and whatnot anyways

Not going to benefit much from Group Policy

[opaque flax]

I wanted to do it to do it

[sinful moon]

But I saw juun typing so I'd love to be proven wrong

[whole yew]

helps limit use of local credentials. cleanup of old accounts is a nightmare if the box isn't joined to a domain

[sinful moon]

Totally fair, just sounds like a headache

[whole yew]

It is

[blazing granite]

I still insist that krumkake would be great with some chocolate or nutella

[whole yew]

but what's more of a headache: joining to a domain, or explaining to the auditors how you know terminated employee accounts aren't being used?

[sinful moon]

Totally fair, but yeah we have a grand total of 0 Linux workstations to worry about in this context, but I'm glad you brought this up

Always love learning this stuff

[whole yew]

scenario: give auditors population of termed employees and boxes they had access to. Auditors come back with access removal of a random sample of boxes. A single failure tanks any credibility your org has for change management with respect to access control

[opaque flax]

Are you SOC2?

[whole yew]

not just workstations, servers as well. admins still need to log in via ssh

Among other frameworks, SOC 2 type 1 2 and 3

[sinful moon]

The only Linux servers I administrate are segmented from the domain on puprose in our case

but yeah just a little web server and our OpenVAS server

[whole yew]

my environment has a few hundred linux physical servers and VMs, change control is a huge pain in my ass

[sinful moon]

I bet whew

[pulsar spoke]

few hundred?

[sinful moon]

Yeah basically only new linux we introduced is because I had a project lol

[blazing granite]

A few hundreds said it all 😂

[whole yew]

It's a pretty small enterprise at this point. going through growing pains from startup to full-on enterprise is rough

[opaque flax]

We have Linux when a client needs it for certain software

[whole yew]

access control and change management is also applicable to more than just SOC2. PCI-DSS, ISO 27k series, SOX, NIST CF v2, NIST SP 800-53 also have related requirements

[sinful moon]

it was nice to already have my webserver based on devops ideals though, so when boss was asking for more capacity, "easy as adding that to my config"

[whole yew]

devops ideals 🤮

[sinful moon]

lol

[whole yew]

"we can't do change management, we do devops" "great where are your git issues and tickets from your git tracker"

[sinful moon]

better than bare metal, it's just docker compose since we don't need clustering

that is actually a good question lol

but lol I can admit I'm not using git for this. Far too simple of a project. They are more than backed up and documented however

lol I wrote a full guide for any tech to just manage the server if needed, but thankfully Docker Compose makes that trivial

for more context it's for customers who were cheap to migrate to a third party business $40 a month plan and had to stick to our legacy $10 a month plan

[lost birch]

am I allowed to run a curl command to see the http header for the kali.org website

thats not malicious right

[sinful moon]

That's just a native part of how HTTP works, yes it's fine

all HTTP agents get these headers one way or another

nmap is very fun and important to know

Well, can't really do a whole roadmap for nmap. Its a good tool, but y'know.. not the be-all and end-all

Mixed Veggies salad, I have dressings similar to those used in Subway as I love them, except a couple more like thousand islands

[grizzled wing]

ok

[glass nest]

Well.. It's kinda the opposite.

more is usually more.

In fact, exclusively.

[knotty cargo]

more gives u more of that thing

[blazing granite]

clonezilla

[knotty cargo]

less give u less

[glass nest]

If I order more sushi, I don't get less sushi

[knotty cargo]

Ive another disk but its smaller

It doesnt work

[grizzled wing]

in life that is true

[knotty cargo]

Although comsumed space is less

[glass nest]

Consumed sushi makes less suhi on the place, this mush is true

[grizzled wing]

1 thousand islands is a dressing i dont consume often

[glass nest]

Yeah, Thats too many islands.

[blazing granite]

that's the beauty of clonezilla you can imaging partitions and not the whole disk if you want

[grizzled wing]

named after the great lakes i think

[sturdy pike]

My laptop has started lagging, thinking of getting an M.2 1TB and using the HDD as backup, good idea?

[jolly aspen]

I’d be happy with 25% of the islands

[grizzled wing]

haa

[knotty cargo]

Oh wait the other option

Doee that ?

thats nice

[rapid merlin]

there might be a dark humour 3 mile dressing in there somewhere 😮

[grizzled wing]

8 mile

[jolly aspen]

Green mile

[rapid merlin]

3 mile island etc.

[grizzled wing]

☢️

[knotty cargo]

Ive a deep humor

[sturdy pike]

Same, feels out of place with the other dressings lol

[grizzled wing]

i love poppyseed dressing, goes perfect with coleslaw

not cool

[rapid merlin]

so good 👍

[knotty cargo]

The seller responded, you want five of what

[glass nest]

Veggies, I'm thinking 🍣

[blazing granite]

indeed, that's why I use clonezilla instead of foxclone, with Foxclone you're force to clone the whole disk, with Clonezilla you can chose what to clone 🙂

[grizzled wing]

smart move

[rapid merlin]

ya my bad mentioning dark humour, this channel is really PG rated

[rapid merlin]

I did I went back for round two 😆

[knotty cargo]

Ill start using it now, after i broke my system yesterday when i mistakely installed a 32 bit lib file

Gonna go soon, just waiting on a package

[blazing granite]

There isn't more dark than me, believe me. I'm a big fan of Frankie Boyle, but I can't say anything here without getting in trouble 😂

[grizzled wing]

i love it for the health benefits and sweet taste. coleslaw only goes with limited dressings. local store sells the small 1 meal bag of it so you can try it out, maybe same for you

[grizzled wing]

just use your terminal skills and get it delivered to ~

[grizzled wing]

dark mode all the time

[sturdy pike]

the mouse or the wheel?

[grizzled wing]

the coleslaw package i get has: red cabbage (purple color), green cabbage, sliced carrots, poppyseed dressing

also make my own

[sturdy pike]

Nope, the fixed one, guess its the dust acting up, last mechanical keyboard died of dust

so I learned to clean my stuff every weekend

[sturdy pike]

That's nice, it'll be the next one I eat then

Yo guys, how important is the OSI Model in Offensive Pentesting. I am in the OSI Model room and was wandering how I should complete it.

It is important to understand funedimentals like this, but memorizing OSI? No

[glass nest]

Curius - Important to know for networking, which in turn is important for hacking.

[autumn solar]

It's foundational knowledge

[lean plaza]

It's not always mandatory. But understanding the things you work with always helps. You can't possibly gather too much knowledge

[grizzled wing]

OSI model is fundamental

[glass nest]

with a capital FUN

[void tangle]

I need Robux

[sinful moon]

Nah it is manditory and fundimental, but aside from tests, it's not something you need to memorize

[rapid merlin]

OSI model can be helpful to know when you hear terms like layers etc.

gives you context

[blazing granite]

internet it's a huge networks so yes 🙂

[grizzled wing]

its the "hot potato" game for 📦 web packets

[glass nest]

Also relevant for sandwiches

[limpid lake]

I kinda won't remember it for long probably. I will just have like an Idea but not fully memorized then. Will that be okay?

[sinful moon]

Yes I too build IEEE compliant sandwhiches at all times

[autumn solar]

I remember a saying from long long ago along those lines and it's been driving me crazy trying to figure out who said it

[rapid merlin]

that would make a great April 1st RFC

[glass nest]

not hard to memorise. PLNTSPA

[lean plaza]

Maybe it was I
Maybe horshark is the universal answer

[limpid lake]

I mean...I have the names of the layers memorized.

[autumn solar]

Google/Google AI doesn't have anything on it either

[lean plaza]

That's the hardest part

[autumn solar]

"Reading too many textbooks is almost enough"

[grizzled wing]

various ways to remember OSI

[lean plaza]

If you know all layers names and understand them, you will remember the order/can find it easily

[blazing granite]

I love RFC 1149 😂

[lean plaza]

Remembering the OSI model without understanding it is pointless.

[grizzled wing]

Physical is when i think of Jane Fonda "physical" workout video

[sinful moon]

As long as you get the entire list and can order them correctly, you're kind of set

I'm a Teapot is my favroite HTTP control code

[autumn solar]

4732 is my favorite. Learned more about firewalls in reading that end to end than I had in a year.

[blazing granite]

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2549 is a good one too

[sinful moon]

oldie but goodie

[rapid merlin]

nice

[limpid lake]

I can remember them flawlessly like in order I think but I am asking do I need to have a complete understanding of each layer or not. If I just have like an Idea of how each layer works, will that be okay?

[grizzled wing]

i thought birds "aren't real" haha

[rapid merlin]

the song is in my head now 😄

Birds aren't real. Pidgeons are government drones

[grizzled wing]

what evidence is there to the contrary?

Ryusei is typing a novel

[silver sky]

Seeeee

[sinful moon]

are birds real when you eyes aren't real?

[rapid merlin]

I heard rumours about the charging, this diagram explains that

[sinful moon]

face the facts, checkmate atheists

lol

[grizzled wing]

ohh , that is 100% conclusive evidence, an image from the internet

[surreal locust]

So I am new to firewall setup so I was following a guide I noticed that in NAT outbound rules they created 2 seperate rule for each interface one for any port and one for port 500 doesn't the any rule also cover port 500?

[rapid merlin]

birds v2.0

[sinful moon]

Uh, there's nothing special about port 500 that I know of. I'd be curious what you are looking to do

[grizzled wing]

curious where this conspiracy idea came from

[rapid merlin]

I will go to the pet store and ask if they sell any -beta birds

not sure

[silver sky]

I have more proof!

[grizzled wing]

ask if they know this birds arent real

[silver sky]

SEE THEY ARE CHARGING

[rapid merlin]

yes, so classic 🙂

[willow lintel]

Thats why they sit on transmission lines

[opaque flax]

I did a quick google and apparently it’s for internet key exchange most for IPsec vpns

[grizzled wing]

Origin: The movement was started by Peter McIndoe, a college student, as a social media art project.

Purpose: It's a commentary on the spread of misinformation and the ease with which people can be convinced of outlandish conspiracy theories.

[sinful moon]

Oh yeha it is indeed, not really needed unless you use IPSec tunnels

[bright compass]

i have a question: how much of the 'birds arent real' thing is a meme and how much is like flat earther bs? i'm too autistic to tell

[sinful moon]

we do indeed have those at work but only when needed

[quasi hedge]

where is AoC room?

[grizzled wing]

look above, just answered

[silver sky]

fun fact, I know this

[rapid merlin]

the film Blade Runner did have the artifical owl, which was kinda neat

[sinful moon]

https://tryhackme.com/r/room/adventofcyber2024

[grizzled wing]

haha, i know, you are not actually promoting this. i get it

[silver sky]

Oh I actually believe it

[grizzled wing]

"of course its not real, it's a replicant"

[full jungle]

I have a question, if you have seen the video with Hutchinson's responding to the conspiracy theories about him from a dude that had no idea what he was talking about. What is the name of that guy or what is his youtube channel (not hutchinson)?

[quasi hedge]

I mean Discord AoC channel

[rapid merlin]

in all those scenarios they can all simply be a part of nature

[sinful moon]

it was only artifical in the story

[grizzled wing]

Blade Runner 2049 was good

[rapid merlin]

true

yet Bubo from Clash of the Titans (1981) on the other hand 😄

[bright compass]

see like the scary thing is that people might still actually believe no matter how much of a joke it started out as/ continues to be in general society

[sinful moon]

We did have the tech to do an artificial owl in the late 80s, but not worth it for a 3 second scene

[glass nest]

This is the importance of doing your own research

[surreal locust]

Oh for port 500 ones it's set to static ip while for general rule it's dynamic. Does dynamic address cause some issues with ipsec?

[glass nest]

And remaining unbiased while doing so

[grizzled wing]

indeed. this is the problem of such a joke

[little siren]

Ive seen cops control birds with remotes

[willow lintel]

Doesn't matter guys. I am gonna destroy all. Living, artificial, cockroaches to humans, mountains to trenches! You all got ||20 years|| Relax.

[little siren]

and my uncle fell of the world while on a boat

[rapid merlin]

birds do see like a good recon animal in nature though

[sick lance]

How are you going to do that? 🤔

[rapid merlin]

not surprised to see their use in fantasy stories

[sinful moon]

Yes you want only static IPs for an IPSec VPN, but again, you're not going to use this are you? lol, so just close port 500

[rapid merlin]

or video games 🙂

[surreal locust]

Well it's not like really for work or stuff just playing around to learn lol

[sinful moon]

IPSec is typically for site to site VPN tunnels

totally fair but as long as you don't have a desination then not much you can do with it

I have set up IPSec VPNs if you do actually need help though

[silver sky]

It's a very good question

[surreal locust]

Thank you I will ask if I get stuck

[twin ridge]

Nice to see I'm at 34 amongst us all though c:

Deuterium and tritium with either plutonium 239 or uranium 235! Just little confused with pultonium and uranium. Meanwhile you guys can chill😜

[grizzled wing]

you help many with your wisdom

[lost birch]

I ❤️ Content Discovery shoutout to whoever made that room

lots of fun

[sinful moon]

I'd recommend the Plutonium 239 over the Uranium, easier to refine if I remember correctly

[blazing granite]

so isotopes are the way? 😂

[willow lintel]

Yes buddy! Most powerful. Btw no need to look what they can do, its waste. You will feel the vapourizing energy🤓

[silver sky]

False, I've played enough S.T.A.L.K.E.R and Fallout, I will survive in the wastelands

I hate to see the way people had to suffer from that disaster. But don't worry, I will craft the perfect plan. No one will feel any pain. It will be clean.😊

Nice enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf4Ux4SlyT4&

~1:00minute for a good start if your impatient

I've never been to the site, but I know families that move to Israel right after the accident

[silver sky]

[sinful moon]

I absolutely love when you see when you should nope out by even digital imaging sensors showing static

[rapid merlin]

whoa!

[silver sky]

When I was in school we met some kids from Belarus who were considered Chernobyl Children as they had been born to parents from the area with issues. Then I fell in love with S.T.A.L.K.E.R so I decided I wanted to go to the zone to see the real thing.

[sinful moon]

Yeah lovely, I'm kind of addicted to this kind of stuff

The analog issues you see are even worse in photographic cameras

[rapid merlin]

highly recommend noise fest music concerts, still mind blown from the DIY device capturing sunset radiation fed into homebrew analog synth gear 🙂

[exotic vector]

ive always wanted to go, but definitely wont be going any time soon

[grizzled wing]

watched the Chernobyl series?

[sinful moon]

You never ever want to see analog camera smears like this, this is one of the most radioactive objects we can actually approach

[rapid merlin]

really well done, an emotional watch for sure

[silver sky]

Well, it's forbidden to go right now

[sinful moon]

yeah great series and that photo is of the Chernobyl elephant's foot

[grizzled wing]

i didnt watch it but was popular and people did say it was great

[rapid merlin]

elephant foot?

[sinful moon]

yeah

[exotic vector]

yep, in the mean time its stalker for me

[silver sky]

The Elephant's Foot is the nickname given to the large mass of corium, composed of materials formed from molten concrete, sand, steel, uranium, and zirconium. The mass formed beneath Reactor 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, near Pripyat, Ukraine, during the Chernobyl disaster of 26 April 1986, and is noted for its extreme radioactivity. It is named for its wrinkled appearance and large size, evocative of the foot of an elephant.

[silver sky]

THM Trip to the zone when?

[sinful moon]

nice copy pasta

[silver sky]

No I defo wrote that out

[sinful moon]

lol

[glass nest]

Is that when you got your superwide powers?

[exotic vector]

when someone makes a coop mod for stalker 2
or anomaly/gamma I guess
