[grizzled wing]

why is stones for weight but pounds for currency

[nocturne sinew]

i've seen 3ft snowfall, but not in the uk. most I've ever seen here was 18"

that was 2 years after i bought my landrover 🙂

[grizzled wing]

rovering on land, conquering all

[nocturne sinew]

rescuing rwd cars from snowdrifts.

[grizzled wing]

so is your landrover cousins to the Mars rover?

[half girder]

of course it must be landrover, when its good enough for the queen, its good enough for the peasants ^^

[opaque flax]

this is my first year living in a warm place without snow

[grizzled wing]

i'd miss the snow

i love winter

[opaque flax]

i was done with it

[half girder]

gonna have plenty of that tomorrow when i cross bavaria 🙄

[nocturne sinew]

it'll be fun tomorrow. I really need to go shopping

[boreal scarab]

Wanna feel old? 1985 was 40 years ago.

[half girder]

hush

[loud marlin]

stfu...

[opaque flax]

the only problem with living in a place with little snow is in the off chance that it does snow no one else knows how to drive in it

[finite tulip]

Couldn't decide the different stones value, some thought granite looked good some thought it looked bad

[nocturne sinew]

there's a reason there's a towing strap and hi-viz in the back of my car 🙂

[opaque flax]

put some amber lights on there too or something lolol

[rugged kayak]

my mind goes to 60s when someone says 40 years ago

[half girder]

which landrover do you have?

[nocturne sinew]

i have an amber rotating beacon actually. I found it in a hedge a few years ago.

[opaque flax]

does it plug into the 12v?

lol

[grizzled wing]

hmm, interesting but also confusing uses, but that's why we code conversions so it doesn't matter so much i suppose

[nocturne sinew]

see if you can figure it out from my display photo

[nocturne sinew]

yeah.

[opaque flax]

ha nice

[half girder]

no idea

[opaque flax]

when i was a cringy teenager with a retired police crown vic i put amber lights in it

[half girder]

but id totally take the defender ^^ bit expensive though

[nocturne sinew]

it's a freelander 2. (LR2 in the us market)

[half girder]

neat, can you drive it offroad?

[nocturne sinew]

oh yeah, and i do, fairly frequently 🙂

[half girder]

thats cool, i have a peugeot 3008, but i wouldnt trust it to work offroad lol

[nocturne sinew]

they're alright on grass / gravel, but i'd be sus in mud

[crude stump]

[crude stump]

90s and 80s seemed fun

[half girder]

no idiot takin a smartphone and record shit xD

i dont envy todays kids ... parents gonna have evidence of the mischief before they even come home xD

[boreal scarab]

90's/ early 2000's was fun

[rapid merlin]

I’m old

[half girder]

90s was a good time for beige boxing ^^ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beige_box_(phreaking)

[rapid merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/muah-and1enz-love-gif-14190846721976002545

I’m that old

Ahhhh my back

Like actually my back though 😬

[half girder]

lol, you didnt age well in your 30s ^^

[rapid merlin]

We had that phone you had to spin the dial

[nocturne sinew]

i have one of those. I need to find an ATA that'll properly drive it.

[opaque flax]

man i remember listening to a darknet diaries episode of a guy who was telling a story of when he was a kid he stole the keys off of a utility workers truck for a phone box and he would then listen in to phone conversations of his neighbors with the alligator clips

[half girder]

well here you didnt need to steal something ... just a night, being a lil tough with a screwdriver and break the box open

theoretically

cough

[opaque flax]

i mean i wasnt alive for that or iwas a baby but im sure allegedly thats what you couldve done

not saying he made the best choices

just relaying a podcast story

[half girder]

hm that was me with 16 lol

[rapid merlin]

I haven’t seen one in years

[rapid merlin]

I didn’t 😆

[mossy river]

oh oh oh, are we talking about collecting data from wires by placing other wires near them!?

[half girder]

thats history lesson, not encouraging such things 😉

[mossy river]

I learned about this in college and it was so mind blowing to me

[opaque flax]

yeah he was saying that when he attached the alligator clips to a phone line that was active he was able to listen into his neighbors conversations probably using a similar device above

[opaque flax]

i feel like it's old enough tech that it's more a piece of hacker history than something that can be practically done today

[half girder]

i had a friend taking a phone booth apart just for writing a tutorial about it, that was really insane

[rapid merlin]

I wanna learn about this 👁️👄👁️

[opaque flax]

i had a buddy tell stories of how people were getting their hands on the att telecom manuals so they could figure out how the pbx and switching worked

[half girder]

yea i doubt it too, i havent seen "bells" on houses for like ages

[opaque flax]

Defcon this past year had a whole village/challenge around old school phreaking with a custom pbx setup and payphones/old phones

[rapid merlin]

The one thing that would really annoy be at my last address was my phone would say “No signal” everytime you got close to the block. Magically fixed by a crisp packet 🤣 heh EVERY SINGLE TIME

[nocturne sinew]

Someone brought a strowger exchange to emfcamp 2024 😄

[opaque flax]

i mean im pretty sure that the term wire tapping comes from literally attaching a wire to a line to get data off of it. like adding a literal tap of sorts to the wire

[mossy river]

Another thing I heard of in college was (bare with me because it was a long time ago) something about on certain weekends people with a TV box would receive all the channels for free as part of a free preview. In order to keep these channels after the weekend, you would unplug your box so it wouldn't receive the update to lock the paid channels

[half girder]

hmm.. i wonder whether i left some "legacy tech" at my parents when i moved out .. i think i should check that

[rapid merlin]

You should and then send pics

So we can nerd out

[nocturne sinew]

one of the reasons the original sky tv boxes also required a phoneline was to report viewing stats back to head office over a POTS modem.

[half girder]

ill check 😉

[rapid merlin]

Someone 3D printed jaces hammer

From arcane and that’s super coool

[nocturne sinew]

i was thinking how much 3d printing has changed my life earlier.

I still find it mind boggling that i can either find something that someone's already made in CAD for free on thingiverse etc, or hop into fusion and be printing a first draft of something in like 30-40 minutes.

[mossy river]

this is why I have friends who do engineering

[nocturne sinew]

a python emergency?

[mossy river]

This isn't really the right community for this 😄

[shell peak]

Damn u play league

[rapid merlin]

I really want one

[rapid merlin]

He ran out of mice to feed it

Aha

😆

[opaque flax]

you ever study so much your eyes start to glaze over...your notes start have misspellings?

[rapid merlin]

Not anymore I don’t

But I did for many years

[nocturne sinew]

I've been really happy with my Creality Ender 3 v2

[rapid merlin]

I have literally lost my glasses

[opaque flax]

both my pairs of glasses are in front of me

but god im starting to lose focus reading all about DNS

[mossy river]

Yes, the longer I study the more I suffer low reading comprehension. It also occurs when I'm reading something I'm not interested in, it sucks

[rapid merlin]

Fr

[opaque flax]

for sure

[rapid merlin]

Felt that one

[nocturne sinew]

you absoutely sure you're not dyslexic?

[opaque flax]

honestly dns is...boring

really boring

[rapid merlin]

I once tried to record a video where I read from a script and my dyslexia multiplied ten fold 🤣

Somewhere in the wild there’s a recording of me throwing a tantrum over it

[shell peak]

Damn how did u stop

[opaque flax]

i like how you ask "how did you stop" like league is an addiction

[nocturne sinew]

one of my clients keeps asking me to help them make instructional youtube videos for their product. I keep pushing back harder and harder and saying 'legit hire an actor plz'

[nocturne sinew]

Not league, but when i was at uni, my housemate spent all his student loan on world of warcraft add-ons and stuff and had to drop out of uni because he was skint

[opaque flax]

oof

[heady zinc]

I have a problem with the soc simulator. I completed it correctly, 'Victory! Security breach prevented!', but I didn't receive any points or badge. Has anyone experienced something similar or knows how to fix it? Btw I earned 535 points in total.

[karmic hemlock]

I jokingly tell friends "I'm sorry" when I find out they play league

[mossy river]

I was assessed informally.
They said it's highly likely I am ADHD and they said that I could also suffer dyslexia. I was told that if I go for a formal assessment with the NHS to go for dyslexia as well as ADHD.

But, they said that neurodivergences all overlap and it is possible that the 'dyslexia' could be related to attention. It can also be the cause of misdiagnoses because people are diagnosed with one when they actually have multiple because they have similar symptoms.

[shell peak]

Why r u acting like u cant get addicted to a game

[opaque flax]

i was "addicted" to r6 siege

[mossy river]

Same tbh

[nocturne sinew]

I'm like the venn diagram dirac spike of all of those.

[opaque flax]

you can of course. it's just such a common thing i hear with league specifically

[opaque flax]

i played competitively for my college

[mossy river]

I played competitively for a pro team but this was back in 2018

[opaque flax]

GO4s or

[mossy river]

No

[opaque flax]

what league?

[mossy river]

We didn't get too far because we were doing GCSEs at the time. I can't remember but it was a third party service iirc

If I find it I will let you know, our private discord server was deleted and I don't talk to anyone on the team anymore 😆

[nocturne sinew]

when i was doing my gcses we would have lan parties after school and play half life deathmatch

[shell peak]

Whats a lan party

[mossy river]

Oh goodness

[nocturne sinew]

oh my.

[opaque flax]

oh dear

[shell peak]

Sorry to disappoint my fellow geeks

[opaque flax]

lol sounds good. I played in the Collegiater6 league

[mossy river]

Maybe it was faceit? I thought I was confusing that with CSGO

[mossy river]

I haven't heard of it tbh

[opaque flax]

it was also a third party league for colleges i think it mightve been US only

also attended a LAN tournament too

god I remember we lost by 1 round I got 20+ kills and carried my team during the LAN tournament

[nocturne sinew]

i wonder if there are any hl1 deathmatch servers left on these days.

[rapid merlin]

Loads of people are addicted to league. I spoke to a friend about it yesterday

[rapid merlin]

I had some other things to sort out and I was so addicted I couldn’t concentrate on other things so I had to quit.

[boreal scarab]

League League Of Legends

[mossy river]

I can't tell if you're joking or not 😂

[rapid merlin]

I spoke to a doctor who said they were sure I had adhd and I also show signs of autism. If you could see me IRL It’s so obvious 🤣

[rapid merlin]

League of peasants

[boreal scarab]

Yesn't

[mossy river]

I curse you with three IT problems that are solved by restarting the PC!

Layer came apart, infill wasn't strong enough

Finished, just didn't come up in 1 piece lol

Nooo come back 🥹

if you know what lvl failed you cna cut and just print that

[mossy river]

Discord compression is going to eat this video

[rapid merlin]

It’s raining a lot here

[eternal timber]

Looks pretty

[rapid merlin]

I thought it was snowing earlier

[eternal timber]

It was 3 degrees Fahrenheit in the morning

[rapid merlin]

Nice

I want it to snow

[eternal timber]

Not nice

It’s very cold

That’s -16 Celsius

😔

[nocturne sinew]

3" of snow here

[boreal scarab]

Nah. The I fill borked up at the bottom, the entire thing print, but it wasn't strong enough

Need to reprint tonight

[eternal timber]

You’re pink now :3

[rapid merlin]

I’m almost yellow

[eternal timber]

Nice nice

[grizzled wing]

🎉

[eternal timber]

I’ll stay orange for the foreseeable future

[boreal scarab]

Everything printed flawlessly, but when I pulled it up... RIIIIIP

[rapid merlin]

Almost omniiii, I might be omni by tomorrow

[rapid merlin]

What you printing?

[eternal timber]

Money 🔥

[loud marlin]

lol.

[eternal timber]

I need to get a whiteboard

[nocturne sinew]

i just switched over to a magnetic removable bed to prevent this kinda thing happening.

[mossy river]

London?

[boreal scarab]

A splash wine holder

[grizzled wing]

another version i used in university was a laminated poster like calendar -- if you were interested in such an idea

[boreal scarab]

I have a PEI sheet

[nocturne sinew]

and it still ripped off? 😦

[silver sky]

Snow snow snow

[boreal scarab]

Yeeeep bottom layers

[boreal scarab]

https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/home/splash-wine-bottle-holder

how much odf bottom layers you have?

[silver sky]

It's snowing here

[eternal timber]

What did you use it for?

[boreal scarab]

Idk, I chucked the print, it even the top bits weren't strong

[loud marlin]

check the top and bottom layers number

[stoic quarry]

It's summer here 😤

[grizzled wing]

epidemiology equations and microbiology terms

[boreal scarab]

I'm not home

[eternal timber]

I’m feeling lost in life atm. We shall see

[knotty parrot]

Or are CTFs the destination for you?

[crude stump]

Funnzies for now

[stoic quarry]

Get better at work

[crude stump]

I want to get into the industry later on tho

[grizzled wing]

when in doubt, you can always enjoy Matt Parker videos or Numberphile videos to nerd out on

[knotty parrot]

What do you work as?

If I may ask

[stoic quarry]

SOC Analyst

[nocturne sinew]

security consulting.

[stoic quarry]

But a bit of anything

[eternal timber]

I do that already lol. I’ve started writing my PhD dissertation so that might be fun

[knotty parrot]

Neat

[knotty parrot]

Oh, thats cool

[grizzled wing]

ohh neat. what is the topic?

[nocturne sinew]

devsecops, aws, azure etc.

[stoic quarry]

I've never dipped my toes into aws, how's it compare to Azure?

[nocturne sinew]

largely much of a muchness. I'm 3x certified in AWS, planning to do azure certs this year. they both have mostly the same products and services these days. Interfaces are different, but I work 90% in terraform, so the theory is mostly samey

[stoic quarry]

Fair enough. Sentinel is okay, but a big pain day in day out

I need certs for it though

[eternal timber]

It’s on quantum chromodynamics and applying algebraic geometry

[crude stump]

Wait silastic. How often do you use network tools like wireshark

[knotty parrot]

Quite a lot

[eternal timber]

Most data science jobs seem to want familiarity with aws

[stoic quarry]

Once a week maybe. It depends how deep I want to look into something.

[crude stump]

A

[stoic quarry]

Fair enough, I'm not too interested in data science but I've dabbled a bit in CI/CD stuff for AWS now that I think about it

B

[nocturne sinew]

it's mostly for data lakes and redshift tbh.

[crude stump]

Was asking because, how do you not get overwhelmed with all the network logs.

[boreal scarab]

[boreal scarab]

It's clear here

[eternal timber]

Yeah it’s fun

[rapid merlin]

Oh wait it is snowing here

I’m blind af

[mossy river]

😂

[nocturne sinew]

feed them into something that does aggregation and analysis.

[boreal scarab]

We knew this

[rapid merlin]

Oh it smells good

[mossy river]

My partner said the same thing when I told her it was snowing

3am walks in the snow >>

[grizzled wing]

so cyber security + all the physics math makes you very interesting person

[stoic quarry]

It's not that hard. If we get an alert from a device, add filters just for that device, the timeframe <> 2 minutes, filter out known good stuff and you're good to go

[nocturne sinew]

it's SO Quiet here tonight. Council seem to have forgotten to grit the roads.

[boreal scarab]

Grit?

[eternal timber]

I have a lot of hobbies. Currently working on making a LLM from scratch :3

[boreal scarab]

Another Bri'ish word?

[rapid merlin]

It’s never quiet here, police cars, ambulances, fights 😆

[stoic quarry]

Omg wait my girlfriend sent me a video of ice

[knotty parrot]

Quite an undertaking

[boreal scarab]

Not even "Salt the road"

[boreal scarab]

"Grit the road"

[eternal timber]

The downside is that I get easily distracted

[nocturne sinew]

a mix of rock salt and grit that stops roads freezing up

[knotty parrot]

How much from scratch?

[eternal timber]

Indeed

[grizzled wing]

is going to be called KammLM ™️ ?

[boreal scarab]

Sooo, salting the road

Got it

[nocturne sinew]

they haven't plowed either and there's certainly enough to warrant a plowing.

[rapid merlin]

Crunchy

[crude stump]

Oh. So ig the network challenges don’t do you much justice since you have to literally scan through all the traffic to find the breach location

[knotty parrot]

everything or just like training or smth

[mossy river]

Are you serious?

[stoic quarry]

I'm excited to see ice/snow in person for the first time

[eternal timber]

Working on the decision tree rn

[boreal scarab]

This I am. I've never heard "Grit the road" here. We call it "salting the roads"

[eternal timber]

Unless I get bored and drop it lol

[rapid merlin]

Awh my daughter chuckled and stuck her hand out of the window 😇

[grizzled wing]

get bored or too busy

[crude stump]

Some use sand

[stoic quarry]

That's just a brute force way of doing it. If you have an alert for "IoC IP communicated with", then you check the log that caused it, get the device IP/Name, filter for just that device, and see what else it communicated with during that time

9 times out of 10 it's an ad that's malicious

[rapid merlin]

I hope it lasts to my birthday

[eternal timber]

A combination of both

[stoic quarry]

Same. I arrive in the north™️ just before my birthday and I wanna see it snow

My birthday is usually in the dead of summer

[boreal scarab]

I heard wood chips too

[silver sky]

I have to grit paths in a minute

[rapid merlin]

My birthday in a few days

[stoic quarry]

[grizzled wing]

yea, since you are not using it

Instead of having a quotes channel that is post restricted to moderator only.

When we release the next version of the TryHackMe discord bot, we add a feature that allows community members to submit quotes.

But, this message will need to receive 20 upvotes for me to add it.

in-house PBX

[mossy river]

Counter to your counter.

We add a context menu command (right-click -> Apps -> Quote) which starts a vote in chat.

Why?

• Adding a "vote" message provides context to newer users.
• Stops users from accidentally voting (clicking on the reaction because others have).
• Less complex to implement.

cc @shut hawk to make sure this actually makes sense 😆

[shut hawk]

Where would these quotes be stored?

[boreal scarab]

Quote from that server for example

[shut hawk]

Yeah, starboards are common

[mossy river]

New channel named quotes, quotes would be in an embed format with.

<Title> Username + Profile picture of user quoted. </Title>
<Body> Message Quoted </Body>
<Footer> Link to message ○ Date of message </Footer>

[boreal scarab]

The user can run .q @shut hawk and it'll randomly pull a quote you said and show it in chat

[boreal scarab]

@shut hawk don't break the bot this time!

[mossy river]

Sharing is caring (I'm so tired and have so much to do)

[rapid merlin]

@mossy river Glad to be here, just wanted to say hello and glad to be part of the community. Looking forward to grinding out some classes on THM.

[silver sky]

Oh definitely

[silver sky]

Yup 😂

[shut hawk]

What about a webhook instead so the author and username is already there

[rapid merlin]

That’s just past 12

631 steps

[mossy river]

Welcome Ghostkttn, I'm also glad you're here 😄
Hope to see you around

[wary root]

Starboard concept exists and works

🫡

[rapid merlin]

Look at that watch

[mossy river]

How would a webhook work?

[shut hawk]

So if the message is chosen then it sends a webhook to the channel like that, should be easy to develop

[mossy river]

Is it possible to add a hyperlink to jump to the message?

[boreal scarab]

HAIR!

[rapid merlin]

My arms are so much worse than that, one sec

[shut hawk]

Absolutely

[boreal scarab]

shows a pic of sasquatch

[shut hawk]

Something like

[boreal scarab]

SASQUATCH!

[shut hawk]

[(jump)](#general message)

Or make the whole text a hyperlink to the op

[nocturne sinew]

Have you seen the Saxsquatch?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am7kr_lLbsw

[rapid merlin]

You should see the rest of me

[mossy river]

I'll think about it because I'm not sure if I want something a little more consistent/ official in terms of presentation

[silver sky]

Even my office is pretty 👀 makes a change

[boreal scarab]

I can't believe I'm doing this, but I agree with Shane.

[shut hawk]

Having it like that webhook makes it feel more real/in the moment than having a formal embed with the same username and text - but that's just me

[boreal scarab]

This is how they do it in LPU

[shut hawk]

Who is Shane

[mossy river]

Who is shane

[shut hawk]

Shame Shame

[karmic hemlock]

Strawberry pasta?

[shut hawk]

hey that wasn't me

[boreal scarab]

Some guy in LPU. The top is the quote the user said in chat

[shut hawk]

I had to scroll through that channel just to get something appropriate for here

[gleaming grove]

Wow, snow! Meanwhile, I’m being slowly roasted over here

[mossy river]

Right 😂

[karmic hemlock]

Is it noodles with strawberry sauce or strawberry noodles?

[shut hawk]

no idea

Don't wanna know

[karmic hemlock]

Wonder what you would even do with that 😭

[nocturne sinew]

maybe it's like Spaghettieis

[pine stratus]

guys can someone explain to me why i found open ports on my phone ? (i was scanning my network )

😂

[nocturne sinew]

what ports and what phone

[pine stratus]

i send u a pic

[nocturne sinew]

just send it here i don't accept dms

[mortal plume]

hi

[rapid merlin]

We need more snow

[gleaming grove]

yeah send me some snow please

[nocturne sinew]

nmap on my iphone shows

49152/tcp open  unknown
62078/tcp open  iphone-sync```

[karmic hemlock]

No please

[rapid merlin]

You can get nmaps on a phone

[karmic hemlock]

I have to drive home next week

[rapid merlin]

Just fly

Just roll bro

[boreal scarab]

Then again. LPU is basically dirty sounding quotes

[nocturne sinew]

no i mean, nmapping my iphone from my macbook

[rapid merlin]

Just tp

[karmic hemlock]

Should just teleport fr

[opaque flax]

I personally heelie

[rapid merlin]

That’s tickled me

[karmic hemlock]

Hit I-90 on my razor scooter

[rapid merlin]

Just snow board

[rapid merlin]

That’s what they’re for

[pine stratus]

x)))

[nocturne sinew]

49152/tcp seems to be Remote audio output protocol to let iphones talk to Apple TV

[rapid merlin]

Wait I need to see mine

[opaque flax]

Damn I have to check mine when I get home

[mortal plume]

I have been trying to download a file to a remote system using python3 -m http.server and wget ip:port but it has refuse to work

[rapid merlin]

How did you get nmaps on your phone

[opaque flax]

What error do you get

[pine stratus]

@nocturne sinew

[nocturne sinew]

what phone be that? android something i assume?

[pine stratus]

ye

[mortal plume]

nothing from the remote system, it keeps loading unending

[opaque flax]

Can you ping the remote system from your device with the python server running?

God autocorrect

[pine stratus]

scan from ur pc your network which your phone connected too

[nocturne sinew]

curious. i suspect it has its own little dnsmasq that'd explain why port 53, does it actually respond with dns?

[pine stratus]

nope

[mortal plume]

ok

[opaque flax]

?

[nocturne sinew]

do you have developer mode / adb debugging enabled?

[pine stratus]

also not

[mortal plume]

I meant to write ok I will ping it and see the response

[opaque flax]

Ok

[mortal plume]

ping was successful

[nocturne sinew]

curious. is it a rooted phone?

[pine stratus]

no.

[clear jackal]

Is this for a THM room or something else?

[nocturne sinew]

ip range is wrong for thm rooms

i think..

[opaque flax]

Not a ping anyways

[mortal plume]

LinPEAS room

[nocturne sinew]

i mean, you could always turn on usb debugging, and do like, netstat -lnp and see what's listening

it's just linux at the end of the day

[rapid merlin]

Ohhhh

[opaque flax]

But can you ping it from whateverdevice running the http server

[mortal plume]

Here is the ping

[opaque flax]

And send a screenshot of the python http server configuration

[nocturne sinew]

and the output of ip addr tun0

[opaque flax]

That too

It’s either the wrong port or wrong ip I bet

[pine stratus]

i suck in networking , just wantedd to make sure that noone inside

[nocturne sinew]

default port for python -m http.server is 8000 not 8080 unless you tell it otherwise

[mortal plume]

here

[opaque flax]

Ok you’re using the wrong port

[clear jackal]

OK, so for THM content #room-help is the best place to receive assistance

[opaque flax]

You’re supposed to use port 8000

[blazing granite]

next time add -c4 at the end so you don't have to stop it manually 🙂

[opal stag]

[opal stag]

is there a way to split the attack box and the ctf im working on so that i can have them oin diffrent monitors?

[boreal scarab]

Someone cheer me up please, just really need it right now

[opaque flax]

Bro why

[rapid merlin]

Open the attack box in another tab

[mossy river]

Yes, press full screen at the bottom of the AttackBox split-screen Windows and then press the minus button to exit split screen

[keen temple]

on the bottom of your attackbox there is an icon that says "view in full screen". it will create another tab that you can move to another chrome window on another monitor

[blazing granite]

open in a new window and put that one on the other screen

[opal stag]

I love a cold room as long as I got enough covers

But the snow? No thanks

[rapid merlin]

I’m so bored bro

[jade wing]

Cold makes all my injuries hurt from my life and my bones ache

[jade wing]

Did you see the bastardized attempt to Americanize this? They reused the same jokes etc it was awful

[rapid merlin]

British humor is top tier

[jade wing]

Like legit so bad.

[rapid merlin]

I’ve met people in games over the years where I’ll make a jokes and they’re very offended. You get Brits together and it’s savage

[jade wing]

British, humor and uncanny ability to “carry on”. Australians, the best shit talkers period can’t even hold a candle to em. Americans, violent with blood lust, its respectable as long as you aren’t on the receiving end of it. That’s my opinion.

[opaque flax]

i miss being on nightshift so much

[jade wing]

Everyday is night shift if you refuse to wake up in the morning :p

[rapid merlin]

I would fit right in Australia

[opaque flax]

ive begged my boss to let me go onto nightshift

[rapid merlin]

I could not do night shift

[blazing granite]

One of the things I love about UK, and enjoyed so much living there was the British humour

[bold karma]

You guys joked around about installing Norton to remove malware from my cousin's laptop.

Welp. Just diagnosed it. The reason the computer's hosed is because she installed Norton without asking. GG WP

[jade wing]

Dude I love my Australian friends they crack me up. Expert trolls.

[blazing granite]

I did so many that I don't miss them at all 😂

[opaque flax]

im ready to go back to them

[jade wing]

Computers are never truly hosed at least so there is that. Worse case scenario back up data and reinstall

[opaque flax]

i could go back to my old job...

and get nights instantly

[rapid merlin]

Also I have a habit of casually using the C word 100 times a day which is offensive to most people.

Sounds like a skill issue tbh

[bold karma]

Idk, would spend more time trying to clean it than to just reimage. I'm not getting paid and already spent 5 hours on it so

[blazing granite]

I was about to say who the hell install norton 😉 😂

[bold karma]

Nooby scrubs. Nooby scrubs...

[jade wing]

Me and my Ukrainian friend were watching combat footage and there was this Aussie team that just got done being engaged in a brutal trench fight. They cleared the trenches and this Aussie dude walks over an expired combatant and goes “bad day at the office m8?”

That’s the kind of shit I’m talking about

Aussies are next level shit talkers

[blazing granite]

a few months back, IDK why my sister installed one of those clean software and messed with the windows registry, she told me my laptop doesn't boot 😂

[bold karma]

Oof. RIP. The normies just don't know. Gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette

I'm sure she's learned her lesson

[blazing granite]

yep I told her, next time if you install shit that you don't know how to use it you'll deal with that 😂

[jade wing]

I want an omelette now.

[blazing granite]

I booted with a pendrive with Linux, copied all the important files on her laptop and reinstalled windows, I tried the windows recovery function but it was useless

[jade wing]

Brb installing Norton omelette maker

[jade wing]

It is almost always useless I find.

[bold karma]

That does sound good

[blazing granite]

I'm not surprise after all is windows 😉 😂

[bold karma]

You've instilled paranoia like a proper sibling would

[jade wing]

I like Denver omelettes. Not sure what it would be called elsewhere but those with some salsa on it. Shieeeeet.

When I was in the ARMY and in training they wouldn’t let us have omelettes and as soon as I was done with basic and could eat them I would rather everyday lol

[bold karma]

Nuuu. She's lucky to have you as a sibling! I've tried Window's System Restore before and it did nothing. But still good to create restore points just in case

[opaque flax]

man I even annoy the mail 😦

[jade wing]

Restore points are also useless they can also and often do bring over infection.

If your system is compromised it’s almost always a better option to format and reinstall over trying to “fix it”

You never know quite how deep it goes and in the time spent of maybe clearing it, you might as well have done a fresh install.

[blazing granite]

I worked many years as a technician and tech support, so no issue, but I can't charge her 😂 😛

[bold karma]

No omelettes in training? Must be Russian spies.

Haven't heard of Denver omelettes, but I really want one now. With avacado

[bold karma]

Exactly.

[jade wing]

Nope we only were allowed regular scrambled eggs :/

[bold karma]

Well she at least owes you a solid.

[blazing granite]

restore points not always works, and even if they work. I don't trust them, I'm kind of paranoid like that 😂

[bold karma]

That's lame. WhAt tHe HecK U.S. army?? I'll never enlist now. They wouldn't want me anyways

mr robot is so robotic

[blazing granite]

I remember from my time working in kitchens

[rapid merlin]

I especially like the dark circles under his eyes

[jade wing]

Yes US army basic. You are on a strict diet during basic at least we were when I was in. I idea if it’s changed. It’s been many moons. This was also for infantry and on a base notorious for being hard asses

[rapid merlin]

Making him edgy

[grizzled wing]

funny thing happened, i opened BalenaEtcher on my mac to make Kali USB for my old laptop but it crashed then said to mov eit to trash as it could be malware. i used this software before and checked it long ago. so i moved it to trash and just found another USB which had ParrotOS

[jade wing]

50k to buy, 5k to rent.

[jade wing]

But it has convenient access to the sidewalk. I mean the amenities alone make it worth.

[karmic hemlock]

If you want the deluxe cardboard box that comes with a change cup, sign and sharpie included, the price increases to 120k or 10k/mo for added convenience fees

Look you do an exceptional job I take care of you and make sure to foster that relationship. I tip my yard workers and maids very well

[cold sparrow]

I've had a couple where the choices are 15, 20, 25%. I scroll around until I find the manual entry and type 0

[rapid merlin]

nvm

[jade wing]

Same with my pest control guy

[cold sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/comedy-00-animal-house-john-belushi-gpa-gif-20934785

[grizzled wing]

Canadian news investigated how often tips actually go to the workers, only a small % actually do

[jade wing]

But if you half ass your job and existence get out of my face with that tip crap

[karmic hemlock]

https://tenor.com/view/giga-chad-chad-meme-dub-gif-25628266

[jade wing]

I always tip direct from my hand to theirs so I know damn well they got it and it’s from me because I appreciate them and their hard work.

[karmic hemlock]

The right way to do things

[cold sparrow]

I forgot two more traditional ones. Barbers and car washes

[grizzled wing]

tips often go to managers

[karmic hemlock]

I'll tip the barber if it goes to them but not the car wash. 90% of those are automatic these days

[cold sparrow]

I hand the tips to the barbers and car wash people. I don't put them in the bucket

Though if the bucket is at the entry, the people doing the work don't know if you tipped anyway

[blazing granite]

I only tip waiters in restaurants, and when the service it's really good. I've been a waiter and shift manager so I know good service when I see it

[grizzled wing]

cash is one way around this the tip prompting that goes on

[jade wing]

Same. I have had the same barber for like 10 plus years. It’s this Asian lady and the only person I will let near my hair. The cut costs 40. I give her 100 every time I see her. I get my hair cut like once a month. It’s not a ton, but I love my barber and want her to be ok. Our families like know each other she cuts all my kids hair etc. love that shop.

[chilly veldt]

my sleep be fucked up

so now to fix with staying awake for 24 hours

[karmic hemlock]

Love to see people taking care of each other

[jade wing]

I’ll tip ONLY if the service is good. If not I won’t and I black list them from my go to spots so that it’s fair.

[karmic hemlock]

Tip culture should not be forced

[chilly veldt]

too many parties every day

I was partying from thursday to tuesday last to this week, so yeah, my sleep be messed up, and now I tried to fix, but nope

and also I got on adhd meds, so that's also not been good with sleep

[karmic hemlock]

I love a good sleep schedule when I got it

[grizzled wing]

sleep is fragile, handle with care

[karmic hemlock]

Good sleep schedule is definitely a top 20 thing of all time

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/jeeks-balou-guigui-nok-ptitlem-gif-26951285

[karmic hemlock]

I woke up at 3am the other day to drive 16 hrs to Erie and I haven't been right since

[grizzled wing]

i never cared for partying in my 20s

[chilly veldt]

usually I have a good sleep schedule, but 5-6 days in a row of going to sleep at >4 am every day it messes up

[grizzled wing]

for sure

[rapid merlin]

I went clubbing from 18 to 22 and the thought that made me go home was “I could be playing league rn”

[karmic hemlock]

I'm in my 20s and I don't wanna party, I want a good job and a house and a family

[cold sparrow]

Technically, it's not. But many people feel guilty. I know people have gone on about inflation. I don't know why they overlook paying 15-30% all over the place.

[chilly veldt]

yeah, understandable, but when you go to CCC, then it's parties

[karmic hemlock]

This is true

[grizzled wing]

when i was at clubs i found it waste of time, bunch of people who have no interest and are superficial morons

[blazing granite]

I've done my fair share of partying. Love Parade, burning man, Ibiza, Ayia Napa, etc. But not anymore, been there done that 🙂

[rapid merlin]

@grizzled wing I don't care for it either. Productive stuff is usually the move.

[grizzled wing]

i would party too when around hackers, it would be hard to avoid the temptation

[chilly veldt]

yeahhh

[blazing granite]

defcon party 🙂

[chilly veldt]

when 1/4th of the convention goes partying it's quite the norm

[grizzled wing]

why party when you are born to be alone on your computer?

[karmic hemlock]

Me fr

[grizzled wing]

drink all the beer and hack all the things vibes

[karmic hemlock]

I lowkey prefer studying to a party

[chilly veldt]

oh well, it's 4 am, time to design livery for my bike

[grizzled wing]

happy times

[rapid merlin]

My ex was super into all the materialistic shit. He even admitted to getting a traditional ring so other people wouldn’t judge him.

@chilly veldt Stay safe

[karmic hemlock]

I don't need expensive concert tickets when I can kick on my favorite songs and have a concert in my room while being productive

[chilly veldt]

huh?

[rapid merlin]

bc you have a bike?

[grizzled wing]

that is the people i have 0 interest in, just waste of oxygen

[chilly veldt]

yeah, I don't drive recklessly

[grizzled wing]

omg yes! i i turn on strobe light and dance in my own party, very fun every time

[rapid merlin]

He really is. He cares more about what people think than how people feel.

Didnt mean to come off rude sorry!

[chilly veldt]

no worries, I understand, I was just a lil confusing

[grizzled wing]

i like the saying "what others think of you is none of your business"

[karmic hemlock]

Admittedly I've had to work on this before

Doing much better with it now cuz i realize the right people will find me regardless of what I have

[blazing granite]

If you would see me on the street I look like an average person 😂 I love to spend my money on tech, food, wine and travel 🙂

[rapid merlin]

no, for sure definitely was random, I guess lol.

[rapid merlin]

Faaacts. I met someone who was the opposite of him and fell inlove the same day 🤣

[grizzled wing]

its alife journey, especially since so many factors contribute to such thinking , school education etc

[grizzled wing]

was it mr robot, cuz he dont care, he be hackin'

[rapid merlin]

That just shows you how much I hated him

Made me realise what I wanted in someone

[karmic hemlock]

I think for me it was just being on a certain side of the internet too much

Watching people flex their money and all that, 17 yr old me couldn't believe it lol

[rapid merlin]

I’m not with that guy

[grizzled wing]

and now you have a TOML file detailing your criteria

[rapid merlin]

But I’m still clear on what I want now

[karmic hemlock]

I've cut out a lot of social media recently and it's made such a tremendous impact for me

[grizzled wing]

if i was online as much i am now when a teen i would have gotten in trouble so glad i didnt

[rapid merlin]

Yeah I hope he found traits in me that he liked too

Before we went our separate ways

[grizzled wing]

i am sure you can find it out what they were, one being your stealthiness

[rapid merlin]

Yeah one thing that really hit me deep was the fact he stood up for me and defended me.

[blazing granite]

I was about to and some how I pulled myself back in

[rapid merlin]

Creepy thing is you know those hackers that were stalking me. They approached me pretending to be them

[grizzled wing]

20+ years ago the internet was different for sure, it was easy to find trouble

[rapid merlin]

Pretending to be that guy I liked

[chilly veldt]

I just remembered I don't have proper pictures of my bike to create livery from

[rapid merlin]

gn everyone

[grizzled wing]

damn and creepy

[rapid merlin]

The issue with that is, when you’ve been on the pc for so many years you can tell who people are just from the way they type

I knew it wasn’t him instantly

I would recognise him in every life time

[grizzled wing]

the emojis is my thing for sure 🥦

i do think my emojis use bother NinjaJames, its my guess

yea, for social engineering attacks

[rapid merlin]

Yeah you can tell from emoji

[karmic hemlock]

I think bell pepper is an appropriate emoji to use

[blazing granite]

I'm talking 1995 internet, a lot of forums, IRC a lot of sketchy people

[grizzled wing]

i was using 🥦 for long time then switched

what emji goes with n0p?

[grizzled wing]

yea, 1995 was wild west !

[rapid merlin]

Yah that stalker was a creep because he knew he could never be him 😆 so he played pretend

[grizzled wing]

what is glhf?

[rapid merlin]

Good luck have fun

[grizzled wing]

ah haha

[grizzled wing]

amateur hour at pretending

[rapid merlin]

My name used to be demon and this bitch named himself demon2

[grizzled wing]

i did a apt search moo there are some results

[grizzled wing]

[rapid merlin]

Just shows you how obsessed this person was with me

[grizzled wing]

[eternal timber]

[grizzled wing]

[grizzled wing]

[karmic hemlock]

[grizzled wing]

[eternal timber]

[karmic hemlock]

Car never even had a chance 💀

[grizzled wing]

you forgot to plug in your car

[eternal timber]

Try breathing on it

[blazing granite]

that's too damn 🥶

I hate cold so much

[rapid merlin]

It was around -10 the day before, didn't expect it to turn that cold 😂

[grizzled wing]

that is fair, touche

[karmic hemlock]

Just get a battery with 2000 cold crank amps you'll be good (i dont even think they make those)

[grizzled wing]

crank it

[rapid merlin]

I'm honestly with GNU-Rex, someone take me to Spain or something

[karmic hemlock]

Dude my battery died on me in December and it was only 45F 🙄 not even that cold

[grizzled wing]

GNU Rex knows Spain

[blazing granite]

Yes, I've been many times

[grizzled wing]

the rain that falls in its plain

[blazing granite]

Also I speak Spanish 🙂

[grizzled wing]

also a slackerware

[karmic hemlock]

I've been wanting to learn Spanish

[grizzled wing]

🦖 is a vinophile

[karmic hemlock]

I got to like A1 or A2 proficiency on Duolingo and then I stopped 😭

[eternal timber]

My feet are cold

[grizzled wing]

ever see that funny video of the duolingo bird fighting people in a bar?

[karmic hemlock]

No, where?! I need it

[grizzled wing]

ill find it

[blazing granite]

it wasn't my language of choice, probably I'd never learn it, if I wouldn't have born in Argentina 🙂

[karmic hemlock]

Is Argentina nice? I've always wanted to see South America

[blazing granite]

nice to visit, not so nice to live there 😂

[karmic hemlock]

I saw a show about Argentinian food and it looked so good

[grizzled wing]

@karmic hemlock

[blazing granite]

I find Italian or French more romantic than Spanish

[grizzled wing]

flashing gif

[rapid merlin]

I love Swedish and Norwegian

[grizzled wing]

on my census survey for languages i put python

[karmic hemlock]

Never knew I needed a Duo pub crashout in my life but I'm happy about it

[grizzled wing]

i never tried duolingo so its just funny for me

[eternal timber]

Based

[blazing granite]

I'm not saying is not nice, but some languages like german or russian, even if you're saying the most romantic shite, it sounds like a curse, in italian or french everthing sound sweet 😂

[karmic hemlock]

I should find my 2024 recap it was so subtly threatening it was funny

[grizzled wing]

is it squared?

[grizzled wing]

not me, never been a user

[karmic hemlock]

A sentient green owl that knows every world language would be horrifying

[grizzled wing]

does it know Klingon?

[blazing granite]

the translation thing never worked for me, in any of the languages I speak

[uneven hedge]

yes

[grizzled wing]

for real?

[swift ice]

yeah

[uneven hedge]

yeah its a language

[grizzled wing]

damn

[eternal timber]

I don’t get it

[blazing granite]

only a few phrases

[swift ice]

jokes aside, don’t use Duolingo solely if you want to learn a language

[grizzled wing]

you said "based" and i dont get what that is meaning, so i went with a math pun

[grizzled wing]

oh ok, less cool then

[eternal timber]

Oh it kinda means “nice” or “well done”

[grizzled wing]

ah ok

[eternal timber]

I see all

I speak all

[blazing granite]

I don't 😂 😛

[grizzled wing]

typosquatting du0ling0

[karmic hemlock]

I would try to see where that would take me if I didn't care very much about my computer

[blazing granite]

I'd say I know quite a bit, but not all 🙂

[karmic hemlock]

Are you a polyglot?
