making web server with python socket api but i should send javascript in the response ❤️

two languages for the price of one

(directly in the python code not a normal way)

[opaque flax]

I bought powershell for sysadmins

[upper knoll]

ooo

that sounds fun

[opaque flax]

Maybe it’ll work out and I’ll retain better

[boreal scarab]

I just installed it, haven't used it quite yet

[mellow gull]

Everyone has different methods for information retention

I find reading, writing, and rereading works pretty well for me, albeit it's time consuming

[cinder cloak]

same here i prefer to read things vs watching videos

if i watch a video to learn something i will have to put it in 2x speed or i zone out

[upper knoll]

im kinda weird im able to retain stuff from writing and rereading but i also kinda absorb info from watching and dont even really process it the same but get the same knowledge

its kinda just there

[grizzled wing]

there is Jython

[cinder cloak]

thats for java

[opaque flax]

I’ve been meaning to read more books

[grizzled wing]

oh yea haha silly me

[cinder cloak]

i have a collection of textbooks ive downloaded

much easier for references

[mellow gull]

It's good to do. I've been working... really slowly on noting down some useful books. They're all just so big.

[opaque flax]

I have a book about the invention of the internet back in the arpanet days I’ve been meaning to get to

A book about the original hackers

[knotty wedge]

Nobody has used it ? does it slow down the FF browser ? (#general message)

[grizzled wing]

with so much content online i find reading offline hard to do - time wise, motivation wise

[cinder cloak]

sometimes i get overwhelmed by all the content online which is the reason i started downloading books

instead of jumping around resources ill tend to stick to one more

saves time

[opaque flax]

For sure but I can’t stand reading books on my computer

Too much eye strain

[grizzled wing]

that is legit concern

[cinder cloak]

ive thought about e-ink readers for solving that

[grizzled wing]

ereaders are so cool

[cinder cloak]

yeah i just dont know if any work well with pdfs

[knotty wedge]

but they strain your eyes more than real paper books ...

[cinder cloak]

itd be a lot less than a regular screen though

[grizzled wing]

not for me, i just made the font bigger and tried to read with natural light.

[cinder cloak]

o you have one?

[opaque flax]

But less than a monitor

[mellow gull]

I love some of these books on CySec though. They're just like "hey kids, wanna learn about this crrraaAAazzzyyy method to commit corporate espionage?"

[grizzled wing]

THM offline mode. upload .png or .jpg only files of your hacking work. you get issued an IP address, you write on paper your nmap syntax, etc process. if you are correct you get the flag. --- very rough idea of offline hacking and learning

[opaque flax]

Right?? lol

I saw a book at the bookstore called “Python for black hats”

[grizzled wing]

never heard of this cysec

i have that book

[rugged kayak]

this is worse than having to write code on paper

[grizzled wing]

and Go for black hats

[cinder cloak]

i was at barnes and noble a few days ago and the amount of hacking books was hilarious

[opaque flax]

Yeah it’s funny

[rugged kayak]

i have this one too

[opaque flax]

Idk I just went powershell for sysadmins

[grizzled wing]

i didnt say it was good idea, just an idea about not beeding to be online all the time for hacking

[opaque flax]

I’m not deserving of a blackhat book

[cinder cloak]

i bought hacking: the art of exploitation

[mellow gull]

If the people at NASA could do it fifty years ago 😠

[cinder cloak]

its old but i love old tech books

[grizzled wing]

the way of the AI and all of the insecure stuff online, the paper is the future

[rugged kayak]

kids these days, always complaining

[grizzled wing]

"not every geek with a commodore 64 can hack into NASA"

[knotty wedge]

I saw many people complaining (and I did not see any deep study about it ... maybe there is not enough time perspective on the readers to have a sufficiently well-supplied study)

[grizzled wing]

just some case studies so far i would imagine

[mellow gull]

But no, reading is... powerful. I've been learning some very interesting stuff

[cinder cloak]

im hoping the ai trend dies down, corporations are pushing it but it seems like a lot of people hate it

(the trend of it being everywhere, not development)

[grizzled wing]

would be neat if cochrane reviews has empirical studies on ereaders and eye strain

Honestly, that is the single reason why a lot of kids have hyperactive symptoms it’s because their diet is trash and they’re not getting the micro nutrients that they need so they’re hormones aren’t properly regulating

[modest thicket]

Not just red 40 im saying mood disrupting foods in general

[drowsy dust]

Kinda

Some irrigate fields with sewage water on organic farms ;)

Yes I’ve seen it

[modest thicket]

Better to at least try in my opinion

Always good rule of thumb to wash produce with vinegar or baking soda or combination of both

[drowsy dust]

Anywho. Grow your own food. That’s my best suggestion

[devout palm]

It is not the only factor. There are a lot of factors and yet we don't exactly know what causes ADHD.

[mellow gull]

There was a FOIAd document about the CIA putting mind altering and addictive chemicals into food and for a while several of them were completely legal and some still are, I'm just saying.

[drowsy dust]

I agree with that. The baking soda though added in with vinegar actually cancels out each other though

Vinegar soaking berries make them last hella long

Don’t add baking soda

Nothing to hide is an incomplete sentence. Nothing to hide from whom? Surely, you want to hide your children from abusers and predators? Don't you want to hide your banking details from con artists and fraudsters? Your identity from identity thieves. Your location from burglars, your car keys from car thieves, or your blood type from rich mobsters with kidney problems.

We don't know who are any of these things. So, we should protect ourselves from all of them, in effect we have everything to hide from someone, and no idea who someone is.

You said TikTok was chinese spyware but this post doesn't say that anywhere 😄

Here is a post saying it doesn't spy on you and there is no evidence -> https://nordvpn.com/blog/does-tiktok-spy-on-you/
I'd be more inclined to trust Nord VPN over a news outlet.

My resource is also dated in 2024 whereas yours is almost two years old.
I appreciate you have your concerns and opinons but we have guidelines on misinformation in our community #rules and I would appreciate if you gave them a read 🙂

[rugged kayak]

someones ego seems a bit hurt if you ask me

There's effectively no evidence that it's spyware. There's only evidence that the Chinese government accessed data back in 2022 at some point, not that the app itself is compromised.

[modest thicket]

do bottlenecks even exist or are they myth

[jolly aspen]

@mossy river tacking on to that "share" function from earlier just completed silver platter the linkedin share is just showing the tryhackme.com card not the room card. is that intended?

[split compass]

It's just not how bottlenecks work, or what they mean.
I see this misinterpretation online constantly and it drives me nuts.

[rugged kayak]

this whole thing is actually really easy to implement and code

[split compass]

Every system ever built has a bottleneck.
However it's irrelevant.

[modest thicket]

juss buy all the parts at once? >.<

[cinder cloak]

faster data access is faster data access

[split compass]

Bottlenecks are defined by what process you're attempting.
Every process requires different amounts and timings of different things.

[modest thicket]

I just want SSD. I think thatd be the best change

You think I could run one with my other specs?

[upper knoll]

Unless you got some ancient architecture yes?

[split compass]

Yeah, swtiching from SATA-HDD to SATA-SSD, is quite literally a 10x performance optimizer for most systems.

[mellow gull]

In our case it had a few purposes. Announcements were a big one, or events; but sometimes there were occasions where the anonymity of simply using the bot was more impactful than having a specific person make a post.

As an example, you've maybe noticed some people don't necessarily "care" (forgive my phrasing) if it's you asking people not to do something, because you're a familiar, friendly, and semi-regular chatter — so that creates a certain impression of you in people's minds.

The bot messaging was a sort of iron fist over the silk glove approach to dealing with certain moderative tasks.

[cinder cloak]

this is particularly true for load times

watch your 7 minutes shrink down

[rugged kayak]

if you want to buy sata ssd PLEASE AVOID ADATA SSDs

[modest thicket]

want to link me a good one? ")

[split compass]

Yeah in load times it may even be 100X improvement 😄

[cinder cloak]

im only good at computer theory not actual parts ❤️

[blazing granite]

the DNS is always the DNS or the printer 😂

[modest thicket]

yea i dont really have a clue as to how bottlenecks work XD

[split compass]

Seriously, if I lose my job at <company you expect to know better> it'll be over arguing with people about spreading misinformation based on their own misunderstandings 😄

[gleaming grove]

i think you need 1 week

[rugged kayak]

check out patriot

[cinder cloak]

yee i looked it up but thanks

Grab a 2L bottle, fill it with water.
Tip it over and time how long it takes to empty.

Grab 2L bucket, fill it with water.
Tip it over and time how long it takes to empty.

[rugged kayak]

imagine putting v12 engine from ferrari into 40 yo volkswagen golf

[opaque flax]

I set all printers as the dns server on the clients computer whenever I complete a ticket

[modest thicket]

make golf car go faster yes?

[split compass]

That golf will perform like it never has before if you manage to link it up to the drive train.

[rugged kayak]

golf was bad example

[cinder cloak]

right now to load things, your hard drive has to physically move to where it is stored

[rugged kayak]

golf is indestructible

[cinder cloak]

but now imagine ur data can teleport

magic

Good morning, how ya'll doin

This is good, thank you.

[cinder cloak]

so your cpu would have to be ungodly slow for it to make ur ssd as slow as a hard drive would be

[modest thicket]

Good ol hard drives amirite?

The good ol days huh Bob?

[cinder cloak]

they are also more prone to data loss!

[split compass]

@modest thicket

The long and short of it is:
Any process can only complete as quickly at the slowest component requested by that process.
That component is "the bottleneck" of that process.

See my Literal bottle vs Literal bucket.

[modest thicket]

:nudge:

[drowsy dust]

I used to have a dedicated small SSD with only my operating system on it

That’ll make things run fast

[modest thicket]

thanks

rip comm I tried to show my respects

[upper knoll]

My ssds always just run games and operating systems

[modest thicket]

🫡

[rugged kayak]

in my case with car, engine can and wants to go fast, other parts cant keep up

[split compass]

That's fair, most consumable media doesn't require SSD level access and read speeds.

[modest thicket]

maybe this is why my disk is always saying its at capacity when I get 600GB free on it

rn its at 100% and sounds like an airplane

[gleaming grove]

good night how's it going~~~

[rugged kayak]

tie that thing down before it flies off

I’m not sure I’m even fully awake yet. All you people may be figments of my imagination

how old is it?

[cinder cloak]

it could be breaking down

[drowsy dust]

I’m the shadow man

[jade wing]

You owe me money.

[peak mango]

Hi friends i am trying to connect tryhackme throught openvpn but at the end say that the sequence is complete but doesnt look like it is connected i dont have a premium membership

[rugged kayak]

you either find em in trash or they just randomly spawn and decide to live with you forever

[mellow gull]

There's no guarantee that every experience you've ever had and will have for the rest of your life isn't just a creation of your own imagination.

[opaque flax]

Big if true

[jade wing]

There is actually every guarantee that is exactly what is happening as well at the same time

[mellow gull]

are you able to ping... I think it's just 10.10.10.10

[drowsy dust]

Imagine you just die and you just make a whole life in your head and this is it right now

[cinder cloak]

but the percentage i believe is active time, meaning your computer is spending a lot of time reading/writing bc of slow data transfer speeds from hdd

[rugged kayak]

most of cats we had just randomly started hanging out around our house and decided to stay

[cinder cloak]

active time is bad term for it

but its not space used

[jade wing]

I’ll never die. Quantum immortality baby. Let’s gooooo.

[mellow gull]

I'd ask myself why I conjured such a messed up life and then laugh it off.

Imagine waking back up at the age of like 4 or something

Just a long dream

[jade wing]

I would like to imagine if this does happen. It’s because I have been isekaid and I’m now in a world with OP cheat skills ok?

[peak mango]

i am trying to see

[rugged kayak]

we are all simulation cmon

[eternal timber]

That’s just horrible

[still hare]

whats steps for student pricing?

[drowsy dust]

I’d flip my ahit

[mellow gull]

If you're able to ping 10.10.10.10 after launching openvpn in your machine, then you're connected

[jade wing]

Nah. You get used to it

[modest thicket]

its about to get esoteric in here?

[cinder cloak]

add student email to profile, verify, and then you can switch back

after subscribe

[rugged kayak]

to live immortal life one needs infinite will to live

[jade wing]

And existential

thank you, i couldnt see an alternative email field so wasnt sure but ill do that

dudes full of shit btw

[rugged kayak]

immortality is legit depressing

[eternal timber]

I barely have the will after living 22 years

[rugged kayak]

same brother, same

[cinder cloak]

👍 its not clear lol

[rugged kayak]

it is wat it is tho

fuck it we ball

[modest thicket]

it gets better ")

[jade wing]

Anybody who has lost said will feel free to donate your remaining years to me. I would appreciate it and will put them to good use. Thanks.

[mellow gull]

I'll live forever. I've lived forever once and I'll do it again an infinite number of times before I allow my existence to fade into obscurity.

[drowsy dust]

Hold onto those fond memories to keep you going. Don’t forget them. The older you get the less you have to remember and keep you going

[cinder cloak]

im 21 ✨

[rugged kayak]

can i do it via bluetooth

[jade wing]

This.

[still hare]

yeah haha, thought it'd be similar to htb so was a bit lost lol

[eternal timber]

Live while you’re young, child

sheesh.. ima retire

[cinder cloak]

now im thinking about computers

thanks a LOT reverend

[jade wing]

Yes I accept all forms of transfer. You simply saying it is enough for me.

[mellow gull]

Did you try to ping in the same terminal that you launched openvpn from? Or are you using a Windows device? (I have to ask the obvious questions first)

[modest thicket]

its funny cuz my xbox has ssd but computer doesnt 🤔

how the world has changed XD

[blazing granite]

if you don't have the will at 22, you're in trouble 😂

[cinder cloak]

i think the will to live ebbs and flows

[peak mango]

yep i am on windows

[rugged kayak]

very well, lets set up meeting place in some shady dark alley, i want to stay anonymous

[mellow gull]

[peak mango]

lol

[mellow gull]

Give me a moment to cry and I'll see if I can help you.

[jade wing]

When I was a kid I ran an experiment. I would let other kids in my high school bum a smoke off me for their soul. This got around the school and I walked away with like 100 souls.

[mellow gull]

Are you using a VM at all, or just your host machine?

[peak mango]

Jajajja

[near sapphire]

Time zones are goofy sometimes lol

[peak mango]

the host machine throught wsl

[blazing granite]

it doesn't work so it's obvious it windows 😉 😂

[sand trench]

and new blu ray burner device bought as shadows last one is broken after shadow accidentally bumped it off the table

[drowsy dust]

You’re gonna be a god in the afterlife bruh

[mellow gull]

A windows subsystem???

[cinder cloak]

or sent straight to hell

[jade wing]

Can’t wait to see how that plays out for me if I die. Either there will be nothing, or the soul will be real and there is an after life. Then I’m chiding with 100 souls tied to me in some way and some questions

[rugged kayak]

hes not joking bout immortality

[peak mango]

yep is windows subsystem

[cinder cloak]

why would you do that to urself

[mellow gull]

Okay there's like
three layers of obscurity here

[drowsy dust]

Bro has the philosophers stone?

[jade wing]

My friend that decided to participate in my experiment wanted his soul back from me and it legitimately did a number on him psychologically

[rugged kayak]

idk what he has but he is dangerous

[jade wing]

Anybody that wanted it back I gave it back for another cigarette in return

[cinder cloak]

delusion

[jade wing]

A shocking amount of people didn’t want it back lol

It the ones that did were distraught about it

[cinder cloak]

fair trade

[peak mango]

Might be with docker i could make a container with a kali machine it could works

[cinder cloak]

ur just holding their souls until they pay u back

[jade wing]

Of course it was always a social experiment

[mellow gull]

Okay I'm assuming you've installed openvpn on the subsystem, and you've downloaded the configuration file? And imported that file?

[split compass]

Soups?

[opaque flax]

Just use VMware

[jade wing]

I don’t want people having a mental breakdown over words

[peak mango]

Yep thats exactly what i did

[drowsy dust]

Bro got souls and soups

[rugged kayak]

[jade wing]

Still getting butchered on my phone as a lay down in bed

[mellow gull]

And it's not giving you an error when you run connect?

[split compass]

I've got soup 🙂

[jade wing]

Quite the vendor

[rugged kayak]

how much for the soul tho

i might have something to trade

[cinder cloak]

1 cigarette

[jade wing]

I plan on my death bed giving them all back. I don’t know we will see how it goes.

[rugged kayak]

ive got bunch of those

[cinder cloak]

unless the soul economy was impacted by inflation

soulflation

[jade wing]

A couple of people I knew have died since then

[rugged kayak]

cigs got expensive

[peak mango]

yep there is not error just notes i was thinking if i fix the notes it could works (Notes: --cipher is not set. OpenVPN versions before 2.5 defaulted to BF-CBC as fallback when cipher negotiation failed in this case. If you need this fallback please add '--data-ciphers-fallback BF-CBC' to your configuration and/or add BF-CBC to --data-ciphers.
2025-01-12 20:44:41 Note: cipher 'AES-256-CBC' in --data-ciphers is not supported by ovpn-dco, disabling data channel offload.)

[gleaming grove]

Your are from the future or something?

[jade wing]

So I would like to think me keeping their soul keeps them with me and is kind fucking them right now and it makes me laugh

[sand trench]

good luck with being aware enough of your death date to be able to do that

[jade wing]

Those ones aren’t for sale
