[rapid merlin]

I’m so sick of allergies

My hands itching like crazy

[stoic quarry]

Sorry to hear, allergies are a pain

I can't even be given flowers, I just sneeze and cry 😭

[rapid merlin]

I’ve got plants and a cat here

[exotic vector]

same Silastic v_v

[stoic quarry]

Cat and Pollen allergies, my girlfriend has two cats and there's sure to be dust or pollen about when we first meet

Can't wait!

[rapid merlin]

Yeah I’m just sneezing all the time

[stoic quarry]

Know of any good relief?

[exotic vector]

Stealth please get yourself some generic antihistamines 😅

[rapid merlin]

I have them 👁️👄👁️ I just don’t use them

[stoic quarry]

I feel that

[rapid merlin]

Do you know if foil can actually work to block connections ?

[stoic quarry]

Gotta stock up before I move countries

[stoic quarry]

You mean like a faraday cage?

Sounds intense

[rapid merlin]

Yeah

[stoic quarry]

Are you sure there's an actual backdoor being used?

[rapid merlin]

If I had a pound for every time someone asked me if im sure or crazy I would have left England already

[stoic quarry]

Fair enough

[exotic vector]

I'm not sure what to suggest.
If you know what port they're using you could try and block the port, play the "fun" game of reinstalling windows every so often or go to linux.

[wooden totem]

Would you be able to swim in a pool of oil

[knotty pendant]

No

Maybe

I might sink

It might be to slippery

[rapid merlin]

Im not actually on windows but I was asking as an example

[dark frost]

I got a good news , i got called for my 1st mission as a teacher 🥳

[knotty pendant]

@wooden totem what are you learning?

[stoic quarry]

Yeah I'd recommend running a network tool and see what port is being used, then blocking that. Or blocking whatever IPs are being used outright

[stoic quarry]

Congrats!

[wooden totem]

new stuff, it says right there

[knotty pendant]

What stuff are you learning

[icy schooner]

one hour back i lost my mobile guys, can anyone suggest a new better mobile phone to buy..

[knotty pendant]

Iphone 16

Brand new

[wooden totem]

Nunya

[stoic quarry]

Any Pixel for GrapheneOS, but I'm biased

[rugged kayak]

how do you even get viruses like that

[knotty pendant]

Is there any phones with windows🤔🤔

[rugged kayak]

why not just find process and kill it

[icy schooner]

Actually i hate apple products.

[stoic quarry]

The old windows phone

[knotty pendant]

Android 16

[stoic quarry]

EndeavourOS and Graphene are pretty good imo

[random ginkgo]

Hey, are the award winners out today? Are we ready?

[rugged kayak]

lineage is for mobile

[knotty pendant]

[stoic quarry]

I'd still suggest to check wireshark to see what IP/Ports are being used

[knotty pendant]

I hacked my dad with wireshark

[stoic quarry]

How did you hack someone with wireshark

[knotty pendant]

Mitm attack

And I used ettercap

[rapid merlin]

It’s not even a proper account it’s just a guest account that’s MEANT to reset everytime I use it

🙃

On guest accounts you can’t even install anything

It’s just a blank

[stoic quarry]

I'm confused

Guest account on what?

[rapid merlin]

A Chromebook

There’s no account linked to it

[stoic quarry]

Does ChromeOS have a guest account by default?

[rapid merlin]

Yeah

So you get the option to either make an account or use a guest account

[stoic quarry]

Righto

[mellow nimbus]

Guys, what time is the draw?

[knotty pendant]

Or buy a Faraday pouch from Amazon.

[rapid merlin]

I was thinking more for the Chromebook

[sick lance]

Or you could just put it on airplane mode.

[sick lance]

Huh?

[stoic quarry]

Airplane mode is a good tip, turns of LTE and WIfi, and Bluetooth...

[sick lance]

Or you know, all connections.

[rapid merlin]

When I was at the old address they were able to turn blue tooth and WiFi on whenever they wanted

[regal garnet]

gas station cat or vtol13 or lockheed

[nocturne sinew]

wat?

[sick lance]

Are they users?

[rapid merlin]

They’re also able to clone devices and spoof what you’re seeing

[sick lance]

Not if airplane is on the can't.

[regal garnet]

[regal garnet]

[rapid merlin]

Are the card readers for AUTH actually reliable?

[stoic quarry]

I think someone was trolling you lol

[stoic quarry]

If they work then yeah

[wooden totem]

Relatively

[rapid merlin]

I work in blocks. I find hitting things out and taking time off afterwards is best, but it's gettting motivated again that's the problem

[rugged kayak]

depends on what you get wrong

[pliant cairn]

I bet they are.

In their dreams^

[nocturne sinew]

a lot of NHS workstations use the dell keyboards that read a smart card for the 2nd factor.

[pliant cairn]

Btw Hey people

[proven quartz]

The funny thing about motivation is, it only kicks in after the work is done

[wooden totem]

Setting a self appointment of "just starting" works for me mostly

[rapid merlin]

that's awesome, I'll try that

[knotty pendant]

Someone tried to login to my gmail account😡😠

I must find them

[wooden totem]

I can do nothing all week and keep telling myself I want to start but idk how or when, but when I do start even doing random shit I get that feeling of "I want to finish this"

[wooden totem]

it looks bad

simply put

[nocturne sinew]

i'd shrink the design and put it on the back butt-pocket position.

[chilly veldt]

the size looks bad too tbh

[plain elm]

its because its going to be embroidered

so it has to be big

[nocturne sinew]

that is a LOT of embroidery.

[sick lance]

No, the QA team check all in house and community created content

Finished making my faraday cage

[sick lance]

Be mindful, that a homemade faraday cage is not perfect, and it may not do the job.

If you're really concnered there are faraday pouches you can purchase on Amazon.

[nocturne sinew]

i've seen some really good room-sized ones in my career. They're insanely good, but also monstrously expensive (£100k+)

[rapid merlin]

I will test it when I get back. I also want to test insulation foil that comes with the padded material

I did layers and padded between the layers

[nocturne sinew]

years ago, i built a workshop in a garden shed, and used foil-backed PIR insulation board, with the seams taped with alu foil ducting tape. It was toasty warm even in the winter, but had the interesting yet unsurprising side effect of blocking wifi, mobile and pretty much all RF i could test.

[sick lance]

Ya, I've been in one, I went to a buldin I cannot disclose.

I was picked up by a bus in Glasgow, when we arrived I was searched and all devices were seized. and given back to me at the end of the day, all of the important doors had security to buzz you in and out.

Was a super fun day being inside the faraday room with just a few investigation terminals inside.

[nocturne sinew]

nice!

I've also been in an anechoic chamber, which absorbs all frequencies of emitted radiation, and also audio, making it incredibly silent and very unnerving

There was a great sign on the door that said "In this space, no-one can hear you scream"

[eternal timber]

I’d rather take my whiskey neat

[knotty pendant]

@sick lance There should be a chat revive role

[sick lance]

Hello, when will be the start of the raffle of the last event, Advent of Cyber 2024?

Wow! I hope there would be a livestream of the raffle 🤞

[proven vigil]

this will be given away !

[nocturne sinew]

i bet it's just someone running a shell script and piping it to a csv file tho.

[wooden totem]

is the emoji addition on top of the list of priorities?

[silk fern]

Well its too hard to know if the raffle is finished. Just like waiting for email if you have win the prizes haha

[mossy river]

If I said "what emoji addition?" would that answer your question? 😆

Ah- that emoji addition

[wooden totem]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1110599222098657291.webp?size=48&name=Whitewclueless

of course

[mossy river]

It isn't something I have considered adding purely because I don't think it would be used positively.

[nocturne sinew]

give it 5 minutes and all you have is emoji dongs

[knotty pendant]

What does this mean

My balance will be updated soon

But its already been used

eventual consistency error, or free money glitch. who knows which.

it autodetects that I need to download an ubuntu package when im not using ubuntu, and it turns out it's the ubuntu package i need and not the generic linux one because that's the .deb file

Good morning btw 🙏

@tough warren hellow

[tough warren]

looking for suppoort

[icy geyser]

support for what??

[tough warren]

i noticed many discounts on going for the annual sub

[icy geyser]

so?

[tough warren]

advent of cyber and the new year and a new one one 25 %

how can io apply them to my account

[icy geyser]

idk

[mellow gull]

The 25% benefit is applied automatically when you sign up for/switch to an annual subscription from the current discount offer. It does not stack with the code that was given during Advent of Cyber (as far as I am aware.)

[tough warren]

i am already annual sub = 126USD per year where its 10.5 USD per month

do you think i should cancel my sub and resub with the discount ?

[mellow gull]

That'd be something to contact support over. I'm in no position to advise you over financial decisions.

[tough warren]

thanks , i will sure contact the support for it

Uk as in You know or United Kingdom?

[mellow gull]

Just a little longer, folks.

[finite tulip]

United Kingdom

[rapid merlin]

Nah I brought her up in a way where she feels comfortable enough to tell me anything

[rapid merlin]

Should be United Kingdom

[mellow gull]

Some kids can be particularly clumsy at times. I know I had a lot of issues when I was younger (inner ear and spine problems for me). I hope she's doing well otherwise.

[finite tulip]

"yk" is the abbreviation that is most common for "you know"

[rapid merlin]

I suffer with inner ear, I have vertigo. Im also very clumsy. She also has a wonky foot which she has an appointment for.

She’s a mini me

😆

Poor child

[south badge]

how can foot be wonky

[mellow gull]

Sometimes we get the best of our parents, sometimes less so.

[cosmic onyx]

Well people also say "U know"

[rapid merlin]

A lot of babies can be born with turn in feet when they come out because they’re squished in the womb and most babies grow out of it. She didn’t

I need help deciding, is this a cool enough sketch, it’s one of the stickers that’ll be on my motorcycle when I remake it, the theme is “Pink Bunny”

Just saying that if you ever abbreviate "you know" I would recommend either "y'know" or "yk"
You wont catch me using "uk" as "you know" at least

I think with how old my dad is I could beat him up too

[errant fossil]

Probably CTF's or you could go towards certifications like A+, Sec+ or Net+ but the certs will be more expensive and require a more deeper understanding.

[oblique horizon]

should i try the google certificate after ?

[south badge]

lmao

[errant fossil]

I havent tried it but it sounds pretty good and you could build a good base from it. and progress onto more harder certs

[wooden totem]

man my old notes are so ass 😭
I have a ton of "X topic, do research"
and "X question" with no explanation

[oblique horizon]

okay thanks

[twin ridge]

Not back in the day though, back in the day my dads arms where like the size of my head

[mellow gull]

I think most people could beat up my dad too, to be fair.

[rapid merlin]

He would of slapped a concussion into me

[mellow gull]

[mellow gull]

Ah, sweet memories

[rapid merlin]

Yeah that’s if he could be bothered to move or you might see a flying cup

[opaque flax]

Just know that the Google certificate holds no industry reputation nor is it a certification. It’s not something that gets someone a job. It just helps teach some basic core cyber security concepts

[mellow gull]

Mal out here with the double punch, second one today

[opaque flax]

I want people to set realistic expectations for it

Because Google hypes it tf up

[rapid merlin]

I still don’t know what cert to get

[woeful cypress]

ninjas remind me that I recently discovered ninja creami's are they look cool and I want one T_T

[rapid merlin]

[mellow gull]

You discovered what?

[woeful cypress]

like these ice cream maker thingies

[oblique horizon]

i want to build a good foundation before going into real certificates

[mellow gull]

Sec+ A+

[opaque flax]

You’ll get a discount code on sec+

[woeful cypress]

oopsie creami **

[opaque flax]

But it’s extremely high level overview of some core concepts

[rapid merlin]

I have no notes

Oh wait I do but not on studying

[mellow gull]

I have nothing but notes

My head is empty

[rapid merlin]

[jade wing]

Starting out with the security + cert is not a terrible idea. It becomes useless later and is a. It once pricey side but up front and at the start of your career can have value. Also, someone at your level will have 0 issues with it.

Low hanging fruit so they say.

[chilly veldt]

This is my idea

Might just be the bottom one and just text on the fuel tank

[jade wing]

I’m a Kawasaki fan myself.

[rapid merlin]

Is this a post for opinion? Or should I keep my mouth shut 😆

[chilly veldt]

For opinons

[wooden totem]

At first I read it like this

[rapid merlin]

Yeah was thinking that one first too

[chilly veldt]

Shoot it down, that’s my way of working everything out

[rapid merlin]

Okay the bottom bunny is a good position but the top one is awkward x

[jade wing]

I find Suzukis riding position to be too grassy forward for my taste but totally like the idea Kyooty if you have that bike and dig it.

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, it felt awkward too when i added it up there

[jade wing]

You can get unpainted fairings and wrap them and customize them with your own design just fyi

[rapid merlin]

It’s because it doesn’t look like it’s coming out of anywhere

[jade wing]

So like you could theme it around said rabbit etc

[chilly veldt]

Might just make a smaller cute fullbody sticker

[rapid merlin]

I love the colour

[chilly veldt]

the bike itself is not mine

just a reference picture

[rapid merlin]

Still though Reminds me of bumble bee

[chilly veldt]

cause I forgot to take some of mine

[jade wing]

If you sticker your plastics and it’s not a vinyl decal it’s going to mess you up later just fyi for experience. They are a pain in the butt to remove and they always start to look bad after wear and tear.

(It’s me. I’m the one who’s going to pay for it)

[rapid merlin]

I wouldn’t go defcon because I would get lost without my phone

😆

[opaque flax]

You can bring your phone. Just turn WiFi and Bluetooth off in the convention center

Otherwise just walking around Vegas you’re most likely fine

[loud marlin]

or dont turn off 🙂 and you can pay with card all the things 🙂

[opaque flax]

And get onto the field of sheep

[rapid merlin]

Is it a bird? Is it a plane ? No it’s stealth riding an alligator

[opaque flax]

Connect to the open WiFi and get into the wall of sheep

[rose tusk]

that's california

[bold garnet]

How do we know who won what in the just conclude AoC??

[rapid merlin]

Trust me I would find one 😆

[wooden totem]

I bet there's "Free lobby WiFi" at defcon

[opaque flax]

There is. It’s just called public WiFi or whatever and it’s open

It’s what they use for the wall of sheep

[jade wing]

Honestly just turn everything electronic off and keep it all in a faraday bag. Communicate by hand signals and carrier pigeon only. Easy.

[opaque flax]

They also have 2 secure WiFi networks that use certificates

[rapid merlin]

I would wrap myself in tin foil so no one could connect me

[opaque flax]

Good point good point. I wanted to get onto the wall of sheep on purpose but they told me they filter out obvious trolls

I doubt it though

[opaque flax]

The defcon ctf is intense from what I understand

[eager marsh]

Scrubz isn’t that bad of a guy he’s just doing his job

[sick lance]

No idea who that is

[jade wing]

I typically kick it with a couple of teams and just bs with em and visit for a bit. I can’t be bothered to go to defcon only for ctf personally. I respect it, respect that people that do it. But you have to put so much time into it you miss the con essentially.

[eager marsh]

Truthfully I was only hating as a bit, but now the jokes old

I’m done

A fireplace will really only keep a single room heated - same applies to a standard gas furnace unless you're using something like an ondol system

You're absolutely right, I should be doing something productive right now

[opaque flax]

are you a real hacker if youre not a little bit crazy?

[mellow gull]

Why can't I be invited onto a podcast so I can brag about how my pet pwnagotchi is hacking their wifi as we speak and there's nothing they can do about it?

[chilly veldt]

cause you're not known enough

[sick lance]

Because that sounds illegal. 😄

[eternal timber]

Crazy?

[mellow gull]

Shame

[obtuse brook]

I heard a hypothetical story that uh..someone...definitely not me...told me happened a few months ago.

A vendor of company gets compromised and starts sending out phishing links to "view an important file on sharepoint".
CEO gets it, tries to login, and it "doesn't work"
So he forwards it to the entire c-suite asking them if it works for them.
CFO sends it to the IT director asking if it needs a different password or something, IT director says "It's just your normal login credentials, try again"

..."Someone" finally catches wind of it the next day after finishing up a bunch of network drops at a new site and has to immediately go into IR mode.
Fun times

I heard a hypothetical story that uh..someone...definitely not me...told me happened a few months ago.

I mean, "uh.... someone..definetly not me"

So if you told yourself, does that mean the story is fake?

[mellow gull]

I tell myself stories all the time.

[eternal timber]

Sane behavior

[obtuse brook]

I cannot confirm or deny who told any stories that may or may not be fake

[opaque flax]

(Sorry that I’m here everyday)

[mossy river]

Much appreciated

[mellow gull]

I kind of joined THM entirely independent of knowing AoC was ongoing hahaha

[sick lance]

I think I answered more side quest tasks than main AoC.

[exotic vector]

is that us?

[sick lance]

No, that's me. 😄

[topaz topaz]

I used the AOC2024 discount to register but I didn't know what it stood for 😂

[opaque flax]

I don’t remember why I joined the discord

[icy schooner]

is anyone got

[opaque flax]

I think it was just cause I want to get involved with the hacker community more

[topaz topaz]

I joined for support ;-;

[woeful cypress]

Gets THM email
You've been awarded a badge

[opaque flax]

Did you get the support you needed?

[exotic vector]

thats why I joined the discord back in October

[mellow gull]

I use Discord regularly so that's kind of what the logic was for me

[opaque flax]

Yeah I’m also trying to get involved locally

[topaz topaz]

Yeah there were many times where I got help, sometimes the server is too busy though

[mellow gull]

I was definitely in the "there's no way I can do any of this AoC stuff" camp for the first few days

[woeful cypress]

oo I'm red now

[rapid merlin]

I didn’t win anything

RIP

[exotic vector]

I wanted to, but the only group in my area is a university society so not for non-uni students

[rapid merlin]

😆

[subtle shore]

noone did :))

[rich cosmos]

me too , I guess we need to wait for the next year

[opaque flax]

Maybe you have a local defcon group

[rapid merlin]

Seems that way

[exotic vector]

na I searched

[opaque flax]

Sad

[mellow gull]

This is one of the nicer communities I've been a part of though. There's a lot of people I'm happy to have met so far. :)

[rigid copper]

Same another year of nothing

[rich cosmos]

I'm wondering if there is a delay

[topaz topaz]

Probably not :/

Emails have been sent

[sick lance]

Depends how it's sent.

[mellow gull]

Tangential to that, is it okay to send you a FR?

[eternal timber]

Feeling groggy

[keen elbow]

I didn't receive de mail 😫 My heart is broken

[odd star]

I dont think so , it's automated

[topaz topaz]

Yeah but 9 minute delay?

[random thorn]

Sem here

[topaz topaz]

For standard gmail accounts for example?

[opaque flax]

Yes!

[sick lance]

I've received E-mails 9 hours between accounts.

[signal bane]

Well that is a first winning a 3-month subscription.

[topaz topaz]

🤔

That's the first time I hear that, was there a reason for the delay?

[cloud quiver]

Congrats 😄

[mellow gull]

There's a lot of things that can cause a delay.

[sick lance]

Could you inmagine 4 million emails going at once?

[topaz topaz]

That's a lot of letters

[rapid merlin]

We usually put a slight delay on newsletters as these go out to 4 million users - but the prize emails have ALL been sent and delivered, with no delay. Should be instant!

[rapid merlin]

Trueee

[topaz topaz]

WOOO enjoy the ruined sleep schedule!!!

6AM bedtime FTW

[mellow gull]

In any case congrats to all the winners. Everyone worked hard and did their best.

[manic nebula]

Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this years advent of cyber!! Better luck next year!

[topaz topaz]

Unlimited free time cheat code

[weak vine]

Just asking, why there is no announcement this time on AOC 2024 winners? Is it for privacy reasons?

Last time, there was an announcement and because of that people were able to find lots of bot account that won the prizes

[exotic vector]

I dont think so I did do a search and couldnt find anything

[dark frost]

No gift to me 🥺, but i gained something worth more during this AOC , friends

[eternal timber]

Did you get promoted to customer?

[echo frigate]

[young bay]

[errant fossil]

[young bay]

Or how to check if i have won a prize?

[mellow gull]

I got my 30 day badge so it was a gentle spook

[topaz topaz]

My THM email is just full of me slacking

[rough dome]

hahah

[signal bane]

As always the AOC is a great event to come together in sometimes learning new skills and the winning is taking that learning and making good use of it.

[topaz topaz]

Do we get any events like AOC? Like something for easter?

[waxen pilot]

frfr

[topaz topaz]

It's my first year here so idk what to expect

[ripe charm]

😂 Got some friends & gained some knowledge. I'm happy for that., no gift no issue 😅

[mossy river]

Hey, yes we are not announcing winner usernames this year for privacy 🙂

[solemn prairie]

I'm unsure if I'm questioning this correctly, but how can I learn to map threats relevant to an industry such as gaming? Should I Google the top cyberattacks seen in the gaming industry, or is it something more profound than that? I also know the MITRE ATTACK framework exists, but I just wanted to confirm.

[pine stratus]

you didn't win anything

[obsidian iris]

congrats to prize winners 🎉

[grim sparrow]

Done!

[mossy river]

Scrubz
