[wooden totem]

that you know of

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

[untold sentinel]

Exactly

That info wouldn't go public it would damage tryhackme's reputation

[mellow gull]

In any case, the truth is pretty blunt. Sending messages back and forth here on Discord is about as dangerous as using THM if you're using a VM and OpenVPN.

[untold sentinel]

By law if someones data is breached company have the responsibility to notify the user

[mellow gull]

You just... mentioned why they would go public

[mossy river]

So you’re insinuating we’re breaking the law?

[untold sentinel]

No

[near sapphire]

On a side note, has there been any vuln in thm, like maybe in the early days

[untold sentinel]

U said that

Not me

[mellow gull]

[untold sentinel]

I just said that u never know if someone got breached or hacked , because that type of info wouldnt be tell to all employees

[mellow gull]

No, the law is to tell everyone, including the public, when there's been a data breach or incident.

[wooden totem]

the hacker was among us all along, showing their flashy username in chat every day, sarcastically hinting of their master plan behind the scenes

[mellow gull]

By saying that "just because they haven't said it doesn't mean it hasn't happened," that's insinuating they're breaking the law

[untold sentinel]

What law is that

[untold sentinel]

Mayor malware

[half girder]

https://tenor.com/view/south-park-eric-cartman-respect-my-authoritah-respect-my-authority-mad-gif-4119797

[mellow gull]

It's based on the GDPR, homie. It's law.

[upper knoll]

Poor Jabba

[untold sentinel]

We all talking here bout a hypothetical case , why would u say im insinuating it?

[knotty wedge]

GDPR : you have 72h to make a public announcement

[mossy river]

Cuz it has happened before 😂 so it doesn't happen again
That isn't hypothetical 😄

[near sapphire]

I'm sure he eats these kind of things for breakfast

[mellow gull]

I think I've exhausted all reasonable means of explaining why what you said is insinuative as is.

[wooden totem]

"shits fucked, idk I just got to work others forgot to send a tweet"

[mellow gull]

And any further communication seems likely to go in circles, so I'm gonna use my time more productively with people that care about my input.

[upper knoll]

Oh yer I just meant his poor brain

[untold sentinel]

No shot

[mossy river]

It's a poor attempt at scaring users, they're not the first person to make claims like this without any evidence 🤷‍♂️

[boreal scarab]

Hey @hasty sand does your service to delete data from data brokerage sites include UK sites, or just US/ Canada?

[untold sentinel]

So im confusing laws then

[untold sentinel]

Chill

He should just eat bacon instead it’s good for you and your soul

[keen light]

I mean I’ve never had a power outage on my pc but I would never not save my work periodically just because it never happened, the effort to be safe is minimal so you might as well. Run in vm

[mellow gull]

Honestly I could go for some bacon right now

[untold sentinel]

Guy chill im just messing w yall , ive come from the gym and i haven't had breakfast so im pretty much js talking

[opaque flax]

I have some in my fridge I should go cook

You like anything on your bacon? I'm a syrup kinda guy but I know that's a bit of a hot take.

[opaque flax]

This fact check is fake

[knotty wedge]

sorry, in English : https://gdpr-info.eu/art-33-gdpr/

[near sapphire]

I doubt bacon is good for you but who am I to say

[worn thorn]

straight krispy bacon from the pan slaps

[untold sentinel]

Im js a bit disappointed cuz i really wanted any prize as im very competitive

[untold sentinel]

Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @knotty wedge (current: #540 - 10)

[opaque flax]

There’s some awesome places by me that does some fancy stuff let me look it up 1 sec

[wooden totem]

depends if the syrup is cold, room temp or warm

[mellow gull]

Preferably warm, I'd think.

[wooden totem]

yup that's a hot take indeed

[mellow gull]

Cold syrup can be fine, but it has to be criiispy bacon. Weird, I know.

[near sapphire]

Also do you guys eat breakfast everyday?

[untold sentinel]

Yeah

[upper knoll]

Yep protein oats with mixed fruits and almond butter

[untold sentinel]

For the gym gains

[cloud quiver]

I never eat it 😄

[keen light]

“I do malware analysis on my host”

[mellow gull]

I'm lazy/time exhausted, so I usually do one big meal, which probably isn't great for me.

[near sapphire]

I think i havent had breakfast in like 2 months

[wooden totem]

cremated pickles

[untold sentinel]

Also u need food to put ur brain to work on this type of job field

[keen light]

Just for the funzies

[simple cedar]

yes but that's usually the only time I eat most days

[untold sentinel]

Lmao

[simple cedar]

real

[near sapphire]

Wrecking ur blood sugar levels lol

[opaque flax]

rubbed with brown sugar, cayenne, chili flakes and drizzled with house-made Sriracha maple syrup.

They also do a habanero pork belly

[untold sentinel]

I eat what my mom cooks (Stonehenge emoji)

[mellow gull]

Probably! My body seems to have gotten kinda used to it, ironically. I've been mostly fine the last few years.

[mellow gull]

God that sounds amazing.

[opaque flax]

It’s fantastic

[untold sentinel]

I hate proccesed sugar

[wooden totem]

im pretty sure you feel lazy when you don't eat enough

[mellow gull]

Oh no, it's because I'm clinically depressed, I know exactly why I have issues with cooking/eating.

[untold sentinel]

Or not enough sleep

[young flicker]

Hi

Am new here

[untold sentinel]

Hope u get better bro

[untold sentinel]

Welcome

[mellow gull]

This journey into cyber security has made me more inspired and the learning process has absolutely done wonders for my mental health. Been more stimulated than I have been in years.

[near sapphire]

There should be a way to hack our brains to be happy all the time

[wooden totem]

that would appear to be higher on the list of causes

[untold sentinel]

How long u been on it?

[untold sentinel]

Facts

[wooden totem]

that's called drug use

[devout palm]

Added anti-disassembly to my obfuscator

[young flicker]

Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @untold sentinel (current: #2588 - 1)

[untold sentinel]

Is this reverse engineering?

[mellow gull]

A little over a month (still a baby, I know.) But I've learned more and done more than I have in a looooong time.

[young flicker]

🥶

[wooden totem]

Is this a bot lol

[untold sentinel]

Im wondering that my self

[modest thicket]

it appears so, or a larper

[devout palm]

Kinda

[untold sentinel]

Im glad u learning keep pushing even if it gets hard and a avoid burnout

[untold sentinel]

Larper 😭

[untold sentinel]

Took me back to advent of cyber event 😂

[modest thicket]

pretending to be gril on runescape is a wealth acquisition method

its tried and true, it works.

[cinder cloak]

:((( let me look at assembly

[devout palm]

Added 2 complementary unconditional jumps instead of directly jumping

[near sapphire]

u created ur own obfuscator? cool

[untold sentinel]

Guys , am i the only one outside of europe and usa having a hard time getting into the job field?

[devout palm]

These nops, i put them to disable anti-disassembly

[mellow gull]

Working on my bubble bit by bit

[cinder cloak]

whats this

[opaque flax]

https://youtu.be/ba0sEfPjcFg?si=8IwjVRhtzN5XM57W

[untold sentinel]

Yeah her or his pfp seems googled , his or her join date also fishy

[untold sentinel]

U learned assembly?

[untold sentinel]

U coding it?

[devout palm]

Well, yeah. As i am making my own obfuscator.

[cinder cloak]

which assembly language type

do u use

[devout palm]

Bytes :p

[wooden totem]

Giant nerddd!!!
(I'm secretly jealous and I have respect for you)

[untold sentinel]

Cooollllll brotha

[mellow gull]

It's sublinking in an Obsidian vault for documentation and subject topics. Has a bunch of resources and guides for using certain tools that I've been writing.

[devout palm]

It's a native obfuscator, meaning it does stuff in byte-level (Using C++ disassembler and shellcodes)

[untold sentinel]

He aint nerd he js likes that stuff

[cinder cloak]

i meant like intel syntax or amd ❤️

[untold sentinel]

Uyyyy

[wooden totem]

thats literally the definition of a nerd

[cinder cloak]

arm

[modest thicket]

damn, nice osint dude..

[untold sentinel]

Bruh

[untold sentinel]

Yurrrrrrr

[devout palm]

Oh it only supports Windows x64 right now

[cinder cloak]

ur in a server of nerds

[near sapphire]

who isnt jealous of heap's ability

[untold sentinel]

I like that

[cinder cloak]

nice i only know about assembly on my raspberry pi rn

[devout palm]

Arm? I haven't gotten into that yet

[cinder cloak]

mhm

[knotty pendant]

[cinder cloak]

i i was following a book that did intel

and nothing was the same

[untold sentinel]

I gotta learn it after i learn machine learning w python, sql and several projects

[devout palm]

Yeah different architectures

[cinder cloak]

learn c before assembly

[untold sentinel]

Alr alr

[knotty pendant]

[modest thicket]

what after C? I've been suggested C, Python, then Javascript..

[cinder cloak]

i should take a look at disassembling things on my laptop

[sick lance]

Do the painful way.

[cinder cloak]

what do you want to go into?

[devout palm]

A little bit of electrics, how CPU & RAM works

You can work with C and assembly at the same time

[sick lance]

Learn C AND Assembly.

[modest thicket]

Blue teaming

[cinder cloak]

python

[wooden totem]

c++ obviously

[cinder cloak]

yes nothing like the C sockets api

[devout palm]

Best approach IMO is writing your own program and reverse engineering it

[wooden totem]

give me like 7 years

[cinder cloak]

^ thats how ive been going through assembly at the moment but im also not really dedicating anything to learning it

[untold sentinel]

Ik how they work on an IT level bit on binary level

[modest thicket]

im too unlearned to know if this is sarcasm or not

[near sapphire]

why use a disassembler when you could manually convert it

[untold sentinel]

Cuz ive been fixing pcs and bulding them my whole life literally

[sick lance]

Because you can map out what goes where, and stop it at break points.

[cinder cloak]

i like looking at registers

what are u storing silly little computer ❤️

[devout palm]

Without automation, it's like moving a full beach of sand with bare hand

[untold sentinel]

Lmaooooo , forensics much?

[cinder cloak]

that stuff is interesting

[untold sentinel]

Ima learn automation introduction on google's cyber cert

[untold sentinel]

It is veryyy

Like u know nothing is wiped clean from zero on any device

[sick lance]

I was right in to foresics, then THM and my red teaming modules took over.

[sick lance]

It can be.

[cinder cloak]

thats why i eat my ssds when im done with them

[devout palm]

Fill your empty storage with random bytes

[untold sentinel]

Red teaming gonna take u a while

[sick lance]

Is it though?

[cinder cloak]

if u disable quick format on windows i believe it zeros everything

[untold sentinel]

Protein

[devout palm]

https://tenor.com/view/better-call-saul-james-morgan-mcgill-slippin-jimmy-bob-odenkirk-mugshot-gif-18613260

[sick lance]

Can still recover data.

[untold sentinel]

Although computer hardware contains gold dont know if yall know that

[untold sentinel]

Still

[cinder cloak]

not mne i sold it all

But on PAPER

[untold sentinel]

Prolly

Digital Forensics and Cyber Security, which is really more red team than it sounds.

[untold sentinel]

U Welcome

[near sapphire]

I did that actually for my quiz, it was indeed hell

[cinder cloak]

nice degree

[cinder cloak]

MINES ALSO ON PAPER

WHY

WHEN WILL WE EVER WRITE CODE ON PAPER

sorry for yelling ❤️

[untold sentinel]

Niceeeeeee , i wana get my degree but gotta get a job first wich seems impossible 💀

[knotty cargo]

My tomrrow's uni exam is networking funds

[near sapphire]

why do profesors love to ask us to write on paper

[untold sentinel]

Its crazy 😭😭😭😭

[sick lance]

School too expensive?

[cinder cloak]

its not the 70s anymore they finished computers ❤️

[fallen beacon]

[knotty cargo]

I did that once

[devout palm]

Yeah also my lecturer checks if every line matches his solution

[untold sentinel]

I think because u remember it more than writing it on pc

[cinder cloak]

wait

it has to match HIS solution?

[devout palm]

Yes

[knotty cargo]

Fr im talkinf about this

[cinder cloak]

thats dumb

[devout palm]

HAhaha

[untold sentinel]

Here in my country it is as im jobless also if i do it in usa

[devout palm]

Not algorithm though

Just GUI programming with tkinter

[cinder cloak]

still

[devout palm]

You set up labels and shit

[cinder cloak]

theres a bunch of different ways to make things

[near sapphire]

what happens if u use a diff implementation? Although idt its possible for gui besides using pack or grid

[devout palm]

Bleugh

[knotty pendant]

🥺

[wooden totem]

It's mind tricks to make you remember more, your toxic relationship will be memorable at last

[devout palm]

Lose points

[untold sentinel]

Exactly

[cinder cloak]

i will remember less on paper

[knotty pendant]

[devout palm]

I hate my life. Oh, i hate this more!

[cinder cloak]

im not reasding my hand writing

[wooden totem]

hey man I didnt invent torture methods

[untold sentinel]

Ngl

[cinder cloak]

stop lying i saw you there back in 1783 BC

you were there with a large hammer

[near sapphire]

my professor deducted a poin due to indentation error in paper...

[untold sentinel]

Best advice is doing it all on pc ad printing it , read everyday at least once and youll learn it , i did it and it worked

[fallen beacon]

[untold sentinel]

Thats bs

[cinder cloak]

best advice is dont worry about memorizing syntax

[untold sentinel]

💀

[knotty pendant]

[cinder cloak]

concepts > syntax

[untold sentinel]

Not the syntax but the concepts and important definitions

[knotty cargo]

Google is always avaliable for syntax

[near sapphire]

granted its a significant one cause the code should be inside of a loop but instead its outside

[cinder cloak]

i just make a lot of projects

[cinder cloak]

i mean yeah but matching indentation is harder on paper

[wooden totem]

and you deserve it, you stinky poo silly man. you shall have a perfectionist trait when you grow up

[knotty cargo]

I would'nt say AI tho

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/good-morning-cat-images-good-morning-morning-cat-kitten-gif-27101733

[untold sentinel]

Im saying

[cinder cloak]

thats why i dont like python

give me BACK my braces and semicolons

[untold sentinel]

Chill 😭

[fallen beacon]

[untold sentinel]

I love python

[cinder cloak]

dont tell me to INDENT my code i want it in BLOCKS WITH CLEAR ends

ill ident it how I WANT TO

[near sapphire]

I'm gonna bring a ruler next time so it doesnt happen again

[knotty pendant]

indent code

[untold sentinel]

Bro js tab key and call it a day

[wooden totem]

I said that with a very calm and monotone British accent voice

[cinder cloak]

i write my code right aligned

tab all the way to the right

and work my way left

[untold sentinel]

Ahahhahaahhahaahah

[cinder cloak]

you dont tell me what to do

[near sapphire]

well they say ppl who cant code in python cant write readable code

[cinder cloak]

who says that ❤️

[knotty pendant]

actually use space

[cinder cloak]

python needs to give me braces, semicolons, and pointers then i will be happy

i want EVERYTHING

[knotty pendant]

my teacher just skipped me😡 💔

[modest thicket]

kind of related, do you know if Hebrew speaking coders write their code from R>L or L>R?

[cinder cloak]

idk x id assume not

[knotty cargo]

Can i say that an image sent to a machine that has reached the presentatiom layer is just a series of bytes ?

[untold sentinel]

Englih

English

[near sapphire]

is that even possible

[cinder cloak]

yes

[untold sentinel]

Fr 😂

[wooden totem]

this would be the best part of the day for me

[cinder cloak]

just kidding

actually

just make ur own language

and then you can

[near sapphire]

Imma make it so they write from down to up

[wooden totem]

and thus brainfuck was born

[cinder cloak]

i write my code mirrored

[knotty pendant]

😳

[cinder cloak]

ill make a language where each file can only have one character

[wooden totem]

for anyone unaware, this is how it looks like

[cinder cloak]

mess up the order of one file

RUINED

[knotty pendant]

this would be easy if i had a cheat sheet

[glacial cove]

Code on your exam papers in C#, problem solved

Unironically, that's what I did for half of my comp sci questions back when I was doing exams

[cinder cloak]

no it wouldnt

most of those are memory shifts

[knotty pendant]

💔

[near sapphire]

They make for a goofy jscript obfuacator

I believe jsfuck is a thing

Hello everyone, I’m a new learner looking for advice on how to effectively start and progress as a beginner in cybersecurity and ethical hacking. I’d greatly appreciate any guidance on the best way to learn and improve efficiently. Thank you!

[cinder cloak]

i write my websites in c#

[modest thicket]

why do you want to learn, for employment or out of curiosity?

[glacial cove]

It is, and I'm going to use it to obfuscate malware payloads in my Uni project for the shits and giggles someday

[cinder cloak]

blazor my beloved

[near sapphire]

Unfortunately its a course on python so I would get a whopping 0 points

[untold sentinel]

Brother

Yall going to defcon?

[cinder cloak]

write it in C then, tell them you interpreted it urself

[glacial cove]

[cinder cloak]

microsoft makes it easy

i also dont write websites often i like lying

[near sapphire]

Lets see how quickly i make that code insecure

[cinder cloak]

just make sure to never free any memory and guess how long every array is

[knotty pendant]

[wooden totem]

defcon makes it sound like it stands for defensive convention

[fallen beacon]

[cinder cloak]

what do u all have against c#

[near sapphire]

Although, im still new at binary exploitation, but shouldnt buffer overflows be relatively easy to prevent, just check for the length of the users input

[knotty pendant]

I love c#

[rustic ice]

I am very interested in this field. I am currently a second-year high school student, and because of my interest, I chose a related major to study. I hope to start learning about this field as soon as possible. However, the knowledge taught in school mainly focuses on textbook calculations, with very little programming learning or instruction. So, I would like to ask everyone for advice on how I can go about learning this area.

[cinder cloak]

the problem comes from forgetting to do things which is very easy

also if you check one buffer and forget to check another

i can overwrite that buffer you checked using the one you forgot

depending on where it is in memory

[fallen beacon]

I don't know C# programming. I'm just amazed by your talent please don't take it otherwise

[glacial cove]

Don't get me wrong, C# is nice and elegant, and dotent's brilliant for some funky exploit dev as long as you obfuscate right.

I did not know C# website programming was a thing until 5 seconds ago and it sounds way out of place for some reason

[cinder cloak]

look up blazor/ASP.net core

blazor embeds C# code into HTML for front end stuff

[glacial cove]

Ah yes ASP, apologies my memory's rusty

[cinder cloak]

and you can ue it for backend still

blazor is new

[fallen beacon]

same here

[cinder cloak]

its similar to the razor pages if you know about those

[glacial cove]

I think the last time I saw an ASP webapp, I was in secondary and looking at my school's home website 💀

[modest thicket]

Do TryHackMe's rooms and watch YouTube videos about this stuff. Think of questions you need to ask to learn, and ask them to gpt or here. You're in 2nd year of HS so you have other priorities and things to learn, but you're in a comfortable spot to learn at your own pace.

[near sapphire]

Learn python or c as a start but i think its better to start with python as a beginner

[glacial cove]

These days it's all the flashy new ReactJS and Vue pizazz

With your Nodes and Denos

[fallen beacon]

Agreed (Python works for me)

[cinder cloak]

i cant help it i dont want to write my backends in javascript

[near sapphire]

Justified

[glacial cove]

This is reminding me of the fact my friend wants to write his website in Rust 💀

[fallen beacon]

Is *.php dead in WebDev?

[cinder cloak]

not for any other reason than i like other languages over js

[glacial cove]

He's proper deep in the "everything rust" brainrot

[cinder cloak]

i almost fell into the rust rabbit hole

[wooden totem]

python is the intro to programming pretty much everywhere, ignoring scratch and stuff

[cinder cloak]

then i thought about it and said

[near sapphire]

I believe someone actually sent a github link here

[rustic ice]

I understand. Thank you for your guidance.

[cinder cloak]

do i care enough to learn a new language right now

no ❤️

[near sapphire]

Ah yes forgot abt scratch

[cinder cloak]

i hated scratch

they forced us to do it in high school

[knotty cargo]

If u try to cross ur eyes u will see a neural network

[cinder cloak]

what was the reason

[glacial cove]

It should be dead, but it's still getting contributions and a good 40% of companies in the wild are trying to recucitate it for the sake of it because "it does all I need it to do"

[near sapphire]

Intro to programming

The logic at least

[wooden totem]

go shopping once in a while, look for any good info worth the price and pull out your time wallet

[fallen beacon]

Good to know?

thanks

[wooden totem]

quote that shit and put it on a wall, that was the quote of the year ong

[cinder cloak]

i get this but python is not hard at all

[glacial cove]

I mean it's not that bad really, it's just very very old and a wee bit 🍝 in the backend at least

[cinder cloak]

especially for high school

[fallen beacon]

[cinder cloak]

i understand scratch for younger students

but the anger i felt being told i have to drag and drop pictures was so extreme

[wooden totem]

we should teach 10 year olds assembly

[cinder cloak]

no

have them work with logic gates by hand

[fallen beacon]

I agree

[cinder cloak]

they dont need words

[near sapphire]

No teach them to read 0s and 1s

[cinder cloak]

too abstracted

what is 0? what is 1?

now we have to talk about NUMBERS

[wooden totem]

they have to build their own communication logic using gates and not make any sound

[cinder cloak]

correct

with no instruction

diy x

[wooden totem]

thats not fair, thats like giving a gun to 2 babies

[cinder cloak]

what about two guns?

[fallen beacon]

[wooden totem]

dangerous without control

[cinder cloak]

ok so a third gun to control the other two

got it

[glacial cove]

My little brother's being taught Python early on by his school's clubs, little fella was 9 years old when he started. I think soon enough Scratch's going to be phased out at this pace

[cinder cloak]

as it should be!

[glacial cove]

We're going to make a little data scientist out of him lmao

i was his age on roblox programming lua

[wooden totem]

Solid childhood, all my homies love LUA 👍

[opaque flax]

I code all my exploits in scratch

[cinder cloak]

lua makes me mad but i put up with it for roblox

[near sapphire]

Funnily enough i actually learned minecraft redstone bfr any real programming languages

[cinder cloak]

i have a lot of opinions on languages it seems but none of them are serious

[wooden totem]

thats how a lot of us are here

[cinder cloak]

i swear im not one of the "EVERY OTHER LANGUAGE SUCKS" kind of person ❤️

[cinder cloak]

i still cant figure out redstone 😦

[glacial cove]

Midlife crisis at 14 after refactoring a MSSQL database for the 50th time

[wooden totem]

either all languages suck or all of them are art

[cinder cloak]

get that cap off my post

[fallen beacon]

do you have a sandbox to test the exploits that you've written?

[cinder cloak]

i will fight anyone who tries to say one language is above another

they all do the same thing

[near sapphire]

They just a bunch of logic gates

[opaque flax]

Only on my host machine. No samdbox

[cinder cloak]

yeah but all the block quirks

[fallen beacon]

It's about preference

[wooden totem]

electrical engineering

[cinder cloak]

this block can be powered by redstone but this one cant

[glacial cove]

C# is nice and dynamically typed languages make me cry (yes I did complement LUA 5 seconds ago)

[cinder cloak]

people do act like using certain languages is 'bad'

just because you dont like it doesnt mean its a bad language

[cinder cloak]

agreed with dynamic typing

[wooden totem]

caugh java caugh

[cinder cloak]

i want to know what my variables are PLEASE

dont make me guess

[near sapphire]

I hope to be able to make a computer in minecraft then create an exploit with said computer

[cinder cloak]

hack the cia in minecraft

[wooden totem]

enderman is an exploit

[glacial cove]

So therefore * dynamically typed langauges are inferior to statically typed

[cinder cloak]

And no, type hinting in Python doesn't make anything better and I personally think it's ugly

Hold on let me verify my account rq I need to share an image

[fallen beacon]

I tried C++ back in 2003 and struggled but also lack knowledge of the programming fundamentals.

[cinder cloak]

SKILL ISSUE

sorry i had to say it for jokes

[wooden totem]

I gotta catch up 6 years cus I wasted them, not even lowkey its serious bussiness

[cinder cloak]

i mean im guessing also back in 2003 there were not many great resources for c++ easily available

[fallen beacon]

True

[fleet delta]

There were tons of books available in local goodwills per my memory.

if that counts.

[cinder cloak]

depends on ur area

Crap, I need to get rid of my old account first

[glacial cove]

I migrated Discord + email a while ago

[wooden totem]

does wishing someone luck transfer your luck to them so you now have less?

[fallen beacon]

The book wasn't clear with the walkthrough. So, we used to struggle to grasp the logic behind it.

[modest thicket]

for this reason I am reluctant to buy books on coding languages. Is this naive of me? For example I wanted to buy the original C Language by Ritchie/Kernighan

[rapid merlin]

[glacial cove]

Yes, that's exactly how it works

hey i have a captured wifi hand shake and im new to this shi after many efforts i cracked got the wifi handshake but i cant crack it with aircrack or hash cat dictoinary attacks (rockyou word list used ) what do i do now and how do i dig out more out of that .cap file + my pixie dust isnt working through airgeddon it just shows same pin trying again and again please help

[glacial cove]

It depends;

• Are you much of a bookworm?
• Is reading your preferred form of learning?

If the answer to both of those is "no", you may well find it wasn't a worthwhile purchase and it'll end up collecting dust.

Some people learn by the book, some by tutorials on the web. Some learn from forums and peers. I personally just stick my head in the official docs of the language for a few dozen hours and learn good practices along the way from forums/friends, so I never buy any books or watch any hour-long lecture videos

[blazing granite]

I have that book, I also own "Operating Systems Design and Implementation"

[glacial cove]

Some people only ever learn by books on the other hand, or absolutely dig the long video format of learning, so they'll have massive playlists and stacks on their desk. Any way to study is valid, but you'll need to find out somehow which one is for you

[keen light]

Bro the docs are the best for me it’s like a godsend especially the rust docs they are literally the best I have ever seen .

[fallen beacon]

🫡

[proven quartz]

The ritchie/Kernighan book is highly enlightening, but the C language and standard are always changing slightly. You might enjoy Robert C. Seacord's C book on No Starch Press's website

[fleet delta]

I've found I learn best by diving into a few tutorials, then do hands on, then read books and articles for deeper understanding.

for rampup just a bit of practice or maybe some light doc reading is fine for remembering or using new tech

[sand trench]

today shadow learned there is at least 10+ extension in the chrome web store that is using part or the entire code of ublock origin and/or ublock lite

hence they are breaking GPL

[keen light]

For Operating systems the os dev wiki is by far the best resource I have ever seen even for languages not supported they explained the actual concepts so well.

[sand trench]

though the main ublock dev is aware they have "more important things to do"

[proven quartz]

If they're not sharing their own code, yes for sure

[sand trench]

learnt this from a short news post on the register

[fleet delta]

ofc.. it's all about MVP and PM's being AGILE

I've loved that site for many years

The amount of unsafe code I've had to push to satisfy managers is disgusting.

[devout palm]

It's always like that

You gotta get used to it

[knotty pendant]

[fleet delta]

becasue it;'s about how many tickets you push, not how good the product is lol

[knotty pendant]

Are you real goku

[fleet delta]

Definately, I'm saying this more to explain this to shadow, then to complain honestly

[sand trench]

oh not complaining

[devout palm]

Developer jobs, is like there is a shit ass project with tons of unoptimized and incomprehensive code and you build over it.

[sand trench]

just find it interesting and disgusting how many people break GPL licenses hence breaking the law

[fleet delta]

The bigger the company, the more laws we get to break!

Istg i saw a person who was selling kali linux iso

And people actually bought it

[sand trench]

on a usb or cd/dvd/bluray???

[wooden totem]

final chicken nugget in the frier

[glacial cove]

Final braincell in the cerebral fluid

[devout palm]

Yeah apparently they are shipping the USB/DVD/whatever with kali linux installed

[sand trench]

because if it is the iso on a physical device it is generally fine to do so for most distros

[glacial cove]

Relatable

[sand trench]

heck even some big distros use that as an income source

[devout palm]

It's free

Omg

[sand trench]

ubuntu mate sells usb sticks with their iso on it

[half girder]

just because something is open source, doesnt mean its "free"

[wooden totem]

(I dedicate only 2% of my brain to this server, don't let my messages deceive you)

[fleet delta]

noobs will buy it if you load it up with stuff, They'll never use it since can't even be bothered to set it up.

[glacial cove]

On April fools I'm going to roll out onto my Uni campus to try that side hustle out ngl lmao

[devout palm]

Exactly what i am talking about

[devout palm]

Well, only if you are an asshole

[fleet delta]

I used to sell noobs this stuff lol back in the day. I had a whole 'blackhat' website.

[half girder]

they make the money usually with enterprise services eg consulting

whats ok i think

[glacial cove]

Going to have a cropped version on this on every USB

[half girder]

when you cant use it, you gotta pay someone for doing it ^^

[devout palm]

Consulting is fine, but selling an open-source project without any modification is like...

[glacial cove]

Well nevermind I can't post it until I can verify

Hold on

[fallen beacon]

[fleet delta]

yeah, it's a bit scammy. But you can offload a few usbs to a group if you can hype it up enough lol. I don't reccomend it

[modest thicket]

thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @glacial cove (current: #2589 - 1)

[devout palm]

That's called marketing

[proven quartz]

It's perfectly fine to sell a disk loaded with the unmodified version of a distro. If you modify it, you need to post your entire codebase somewhere your users can get it

[modest thicket]

thanks

[fleet delta]

right, in a sense. It's not good marketing. but it is marketing lol

[devout palm]

Not perfectly fine for me. It doesn't require that much effort to install a distro when you can just click next next or do the same thing following youtube

The money for that is not worth the effort

[wooden totem]

https://tenor.com/view/luigi-luigi-speaking-luigi-talking-luigi-explaining-speaking-gif-21948151

[glacial cove]

Bro nobody's going to check, that'd be a surefire security hazard 90% of the times. Nobody should be buying that

[devout palm]

Lol that's an another thing

[glacial cove]

"If you tamper you need to upload codebase" who's going to own up to that

[devout palm]

I have built my ethics and i would happily help somebody setting up a linux distro with no money required

[half girder]

jep, providing some space and traffic for the good cause, why not

[devout palm]

And for those who are selling, they are all in for money.

[glacial cove]

I mean, I ran a club in my uni for a while doing that for all my fellows on some free laptops we were given, ~10 of us using bare-metal now

[proven quartz]

Lots of small companies made small change selling DVDs of distros over the years, and contributed funds back to the distro. Even got the rights to do the same with things like putting the Debian logo on tshirts and hoodies. I'm wearing an old Debian hoodie atm

[proven quartz]

People who comply with the law and like to contribute to the community lol

[glacial cove]

Thing is when they personally know me by the full name

these days it takes minutes to get an iso to load on a stick or in a vm

[devout palm]

I was shocked when I seen in the bot logs.

[lost birch]

[proven quartz]

I go to conferences to get new pens. It's a fun hobby. It merged with my stress ball and key ring hobbies

[sand trench]

reminder to update your firefox arkenfox profile

v133 just released

[lost birch]

can't go wrong with a bic though

[mellow gull]

When I did retail work I'd collect business cards from people, but never pens. Never fancy enough to steal pens.

[lost birch]

are conferences presented as a lot of people at stands where you can just walk up to people and strike up conversation?

[half girder]

mhm these give away pens are shit

[proven quartz]

Yeah and there's usually talks, food, coffee and eventually beer

[mellow gull]

Every conference I've ever been to has been like that for the most part.

Occasionally sets of rooms filled with speakers talking about this or that

[lost birch]

do they hack at conferences or is that limited to DEFCON?

[proven quartz]

I've gotten chatting to some interesting people at conferences over the years

[blazing granite]

Cyber week in TLV is really good

[mellow gull]

Never met a hacker at any of my conferences but that might be because they were for education

[blazing granite]

also great food and parties 🥳

[proven quartz]

There are hacking conferences but you should always be careful connecting to conference wifi. It's one of the instances I'd really suggest using a VPN or just your phone's hotspot

[mellow gull]

They got walls of shame for a reason

[proven quartz]

Yes, so don't be on one 😛

[lost birch]

lol who gets on the wall of shame?

[mellow gull]

Anyone dumb enough to have a Bluetooth connection on, or connects to the "free wifi"

[proven quartz]

People who get hacked at hacking conferences

[mellow gull]

Among other things

[lost birch]

thats so funny

how does bluetooth hacking work? 😮

[proven quartz]

Though the wifi at defcon is policed heavily by their staff and they do punish people for being naughty

[lost birch]

I know that is probably googleable actually

[mellow gull]

BLE poisoning among other things, think that's as far as I can reasonably say here

[lost birch]

I presume there's an advanced channel for that kind of thing?

[mellow gull]

This year they're being especially strict, aren't they? Lots of no-no lists for the first time in a while.

[mellow gull]

Probably can't see till 0XLegend if it does

[proven quartz]

Yep, when you reach top level or if you have OSCP or similar, with a mod's blessing

[fallen beacon]

✋

[proven quartz]

Yes, absolutely. They don't entertain criminal behaviour. It's a learning experience, and lots of fun and shenanigans too

[mellow gull]

I'd love to head out. I'm pretty close to NV, but tickets are not cheap.

Maybe next year.

[swift ice]

it was $460 in-person cash-only and $480 online pre-registration last year

[lost birch]

I'm in the wrong continent haha

[swift ice]

ironically, the in-person line was shorter than the pre-registration line

[mellow gull]

Then there's room and board in one of the most expensive locations in the USA

[swift ice]

yeah lol

you can just do an Airbnb though

[proven quartz]

Yeah it can get pricey but there's early offers. Because of the trouble in LA, there might be price hikes in LV too this year

[opaque flax]

I should be wall of shamed

[swift ice]

then connect to the fake conference hotspots

[fair fable]

Talking about defcon ?

[lost birch]

Airport wifi on DEFCON day must get interesting haha

yes

[proven quartz]

Yep, there'll be a channel for that closer to the event. A few people from here will certainly go

[mellow gull]

"You will be hacked if you connect to this hotspot"
1000+ connections

[swift ice]

lol

[mellow gull]

People can't resist

[prisma mica]

So if tryhackme didn't send me an email, i can assume that i didn't won anything, right?

[mellow gull]

Yes

[swift ice]

to be fair, in the pamphlet DEF CON gives you, they literally give out the names of the legitimate wireless networks

[proven quartz]

The thing about Defcon is, most people in the area won't know or care it's on anyway

[swift ice]

so connecting to anything else is on you

[mellow gull]

Yeah conferences in general aren't super well known aside from maybe comicon and hacker conferences even less so

[fair fable]

So they are giving demo regarding how they get hacked

[opaque flax]

They do still run the wall of sheep and the open WiFi

[swift ice]

and the social engineering village is popular as always

[opaque flax]

I have solved challenges using stegsolve but i don't know how to make one. Any resources i can follow for this?

Yessirrr, I'm actually taking a cybersec research course this semester

Super excited

[blazing granite]

I'm taking a break so I'll be yellow for a while 🙂

[karmic hemlock]

Of course, nothing wrong with taking your time

[dark mason]

You are lucky, my school is no where this developed, our CS teacher bearly knows the difference between Javascript and java

[karmic hemlock]

Is it a small school/community college?

My school partakes in the SFS program, so I'm very fortunate to have competent professors with decades of experience in the field

I'm going to apply for it this semester

[dark mason]

Yeah

[modest thicket]

why would one use vim instead of text editor?

[dark mason]

They are insane

Or they have no GUI

[modest thicket]

ok thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @dark mason (current: #2589 - 1)

[karmic hemlock]

Because vi is the superior editor

[pliant cairn]

i read javascript being mentioned without having "eww" before or after it.

thats wrong

[dark mason]

Are you an arch user?

[lost birch]

Hello Potato People 🙂

[karmic hemlock]

Nope

[blazing granite]

because some people like power and flexibility there is nothing, you can't do with vim 🙂 I love the graphic part but there are some tasks that I need text base, nothing beat text base

[dark mason]

Deb?

[pliant cairn]

please don't go down this road. it never concludes

[karmic hemlock]

Yep

[dark mason]

W

[karmic hemlock]

Kali and Ubuntu, to be specific

[dark mason]

I only use kali

Started with ubuntu

Then switched to kali after a year

[lost birch]

Ubuntu looks so nice

[karmic hemlock]

I use Ubuntu for WSL because I'm too lazy to install Kali on it

[modest thicket]

oh ok thanks.

[karmic hemlock]

But for VB I use Kali exclusively

[lost birch]

I saw someone who had Firefox open, but the top menu bar and toolbar was super thin, does anyone know how he did that?

[dark mason]

What does the THM attack box use?

I always liked it

[rugged kayak]

attack box is ubuntu

[karmic hemlock]

It uses some form of Deb Linux i believe but it isn't Kali

[sand trench]

bored bored bored bored bored bored bored

[dark mason]

Ah, just modified ubuntu?

[karmic hemlock]

Basically

[pliant cairn]

im bored too

[sand trench]

attackbox is just a ubuntu vm with a lot of tools and files added over the years yes

[dark mason]

I never tried parrot OS, I am thinking of trying it

[lost birch]

It appears as though Shadow is bored

[karmic hemlock]

How does one go down the vi rabbit hole

[pliant cairn]

anyone up for some games?

[rugged kayak]

yea but you can chose if you want attackbox or regular kali machine

[karmic hemlock]

I want to take that chance

[oblique furnace]

imo kali is way better

[rugged kayak]

just try it

[dark mason]

Ik, I prefer openvpn tho

[oblique furnace]

parrotos is just more corporate/professional kali

[blazing granite]

I've heard once that only boring people get bored 😂

[rugged kayak]

learn motions, its worth it

[dark mason]

Ew

[oblique furnace]

[karmic hemlock]

Kali ftw

[rugged kayak]

its same thing really, just with few more tools preinstalled

[blazing granite]

almost the same as kali, but with outdated software

[dark mason]

EWW

[rugged kayak]

[dark mason]

[upper knoll]

[mossy river]

No that would be illegal and against our community rules

[devout saffron]

Legal servers to hack

[upper knoll]

we dont discuss illegal topics

[devout saffron]

Bro vulnhub

[oblique furnace]

no one believes you bro

[mossy river]

I'd like to remind everyone of Rule 9; do not interact with rule breakers.

[dark mason]

Should have specified

[mossy river]

Can you elaborate, please?

[upper knoll]

[oblique furnace]

[devout saffron]

Vulnhub is legal servers to hack for free

[mossy river]

OHH those glasses

[oblique furnace]

[mossy river]

Those are not servers, they are virtual machines:)

[rugged kayak]

[oblique furnace]

^^^^^^^^^^^^

[upper knoll]

i cant see long distances and if im swapping between long or close my eyes cant cope with the focus swap

[devout saffron]

Ok thats what i meant i am not breaking rules then

[dark mason]

I hated having everything on the upper side, moved the whole ass bar on the bottom, much, much better

[gleaming grove]

good afternoon everyone

[devout saffron]

Dm me

[mossy river]

You can do the same thing you do on Vulnhub but on https://tryhackme.com :)
You don't need to setup the machines, we handle it all for you

[rugged kayak]

someone once suggested me to get those bifocal glasses

[pliant cairn]

[gleaming grove]

[mossy river]

Why can't you say it in public? 😄

[upper knoll]

[devout palm]

I'm lucky, i only have astigmat and myopia 0.5

[upper knoll]

my close vision is actually really good for once

[karmic hemlock]

Something about a hooded profile pic with the username anonymous talking about "legal" servers to hack seems off

Idk

[devout saffron]

Is leaking information allowed?

[upper knoll]

my guy wants a ban or timeout

[pliant cairn]

i have such a high powered glasses.

[grim sparrow]
