[wooden totem]

I have blurry vision in one eye, so I'd probably benefit from a monocle and a tophat

[pliant cairn]

mine is 7 and 8 fml

[devout palm]

I don't wear glasses when i am not in class

[upper knoll]

i had two opticans look me dead in the eye after running the same tests and say i dont know how u dont have glasses and havent needed them up till now

[mossy river]

No they were posting similar messages at around 4am, I missed them

[blazing granite]

so you understand 😂

[karmic hemlock]

Aw man, we could've had a top 5 performance

[rugged kayak]

not being able to see more than 5 inches in front of you is fun af

[pliant cairn]

yes i do 😂

[lost birch]

Oh I wanted to ask that guy how to join Anonymous 😕

Is he gone

[upper knoll]

xd

thats how to get your info stolen from some rando

[wooden totem]

they aren't even worth stealing info

[blazing granite]

I have my glasses on my night stand, it's the last thing I take out and the first thing I put on 🙂

[karmic hemlock]

10 bucks says it's some 16 yr old kid who just learned about password cracking

[upper knoll]

🤓

[rugged kayak]

safest bet ever

[oblique furnace]

agree

[wooden totem]

this whole industry is being held up by 16 year olds

[lost birch]

One fern video

[karmic hemlock]

We're feeding families with this one LOL

[lost birch]

Thats unironically a good way to describe it

You pick up one particular (and maybe peculiar) interest/hobby until you become the real adult you

[rugged kayak]

free update that you cant uninstall

[oblique furnace]

i dunno how tf he knows the shit he does

[lost birch]

TOS lol

[karmic hemlock]

I learned this when I played Dance Dance Revolution on the PS2 when I was 5

[oblique furnace]

dudes active in many servers that are toxic as with underage peeps

he poses as 15 and no one questions him

thats how mature he is

no he is not here if yall curious

[pliant cairn]

its like that windows update that you can't skip

[oblique furnace]

hes mostly into ui/ux design and shit

[lost birch]

vista

[oblique furnace]

he will become 13 in april

hes unironically one of the best people i know

[oblique furnace]

yeah ik

[lost birch]

is he good at ux?

[oblique furnace]

but i dont snitch on him because he doesnt deserve

[oblique furnace]

yeah

he was making an entire mobile/pc os concept from scratch

how does that shit look so good

[karmic hemlock]

I've met him before he's cracked (joking)

[oblique furnace]

you dont even believe it's a 12 year old who made it

[wooden totem]

had similar friend but he is now 15

[karmic hemlock]

Bro is 12 and already has a stable career secured

[oblique furnace]

nice

[oblique furnace]

right

i only got passion for coding at like

[gleaming grove]

i mean.... is there really a difference between a 12-year-old and a 15-year-old?

[oblique furnace]

11 years old

dude has ux since like

10

[karmic hemlock]

Yes

[lost birch]

yes 100%

[karmic hemlock]

Quite a difference imo

[rugged kayak]

[oblique furnace]

after being fascinated with tech snce age 7

[gleaming grove]

[wary ocean]

[oblique furnace]

and only just started getting money for my skills

[lost birch]

Quite the prodigy

[wooden totem]

imagine how smart people would be with better parenting tho

[oblique furnace]

[gleaming grove]

yeah one is starting his edgy phase

[wary ocean]

the "im not like other guys yuhhhhh" bullshit

[oblique furnace]

yeah most peeps say it and are just the same as all the others

[rugged kayak]

there are 25+ yo dudes that still speak like this

[oblique furnace]

dude people make fun of me at my school for being smart

[pliant cairn]

alright back to deranking in valorant

[oblique furnace]

good thing im outta there this year

[wary ocean]

people at my school thought i was mute cuz i never talked

[oblique furnace]

im the only one who can

[wooden totem]

✋ 🕵️ 🤚

absolute convolution

[oblique furnace]

name all states in brazil

stupid ass shit to not know

[lost birch]

I always thought this was dumb

[oblique furnace]

theres only 26 states here and all of them are well known

[wooden totem]

you can't be doing that

[oblique furnace]

agree

[wary ocean]

my hs was also kinda scared of me cuz i was bigger than like 90% of people there 😅

[oblique furnace]

may i remind you i live in the city of gossip of north rio de janeiro

[pliant cairn]

why?

[oblique furnace]

ask anyone from over here what it is and theyll know

[wooden totem]

it says right here it's "not recommended to partake in such activities"

[pliant cairn]

the thing is i dont have to try for it

i naturally loose rr

[upper knoll]

what elo are u in valorant?

[pliant cairn]

never ask a man his salary and a woman her age and a valorant player their rank

[blazing granite]

don't worry older people will come later 😂

[wary ocean]

😂

[clear jackal]

The non-existent one because I don't want Vanguard on my PC

[upper knoll]

when i played seriously i peaked immo3 300rr

[oblique furnace]

same

[upper knoll]

yer smart idea

[wooden totem]

and I quote "valorant is explicitly banned for children due to dangerously high brain damage"

[wary ocean]

i made a freshman completely backstep what he told me cuz i was just walking to class but also towards him

[pliant cairn]

300 rr is like silver no?

[upper knoll]

no lad

300rr in immo3

i was top 3k in europe

[wooden totem]

they are multiplying!

[pliant cairn]

oh wait damn

[wooden totem]

I knew it was cancer

[pliant cairn]

we got pros here

[upper knoll]

i did compete for 3 years with a few top 8 and top 2 finishes

[pliant cairn]

[upper knoll]

as everyone says for bm in ranked aim labs is free xd

[pliant cairn]

ikik haha

its a skill issue for me

im just too old for gaming i guess

[upper knoll]

How old are you?

[wary ocean]

singleplayer games are where its at

[pliant cairn]

24

[wooden totem]

I'm jealous of people that are able to extract dopamine from a place like Valorant

[upper knoll]

Bro I peaked that elo at 24

I’m 25

[blazing granite]

I don't think is a matter of age, you like it or not. I've never like games

[pliant cairn]

i have been playing ABI recently tho

[wary ocean]

modern games suck imo

[mossy river]

true

[upper knoll]

Reaction time and informational processing matters

[wary ocean]

which is why i play games like halo

[upper knoll]

Also big agree

[blazing granite]

wow 25 😂

[upper knoll]

Omg old halo games

[wary ocean]

halo reach is absolute peak gameplay

[wild rose]

Gonna start Forspoken

[wooden totem]

factorio is where it's at ngl

[wild rose]

we'll see how bad it really is.

[wary ocean]

last modern game i played i genuinely enjoyed and have sank a lot of time is in cyberpunk

[wooden totem]

I have one exception, helldivers

[wary ocean]

true true

helldivers is a blast

gets pretty boring after a few hours tho

[dark mason]

Single dumbest sentence I have heard today

[wild rose]

It was fun until the PSN login demand.

[wooden totem]

that lasted for like 3 minutes

[wild rose]

haven't played it since though.

[wary ocean]

cyberpunk is kinda what got me into cyber security

[pine stratus]

my he meant starlink

[wild rose]

I heard that it had a big update to the game.

[wooden totem]

bio engineering

[wary ocean]

more so the nethacking but yea that too

bioengineering is cool but i hate it with a passion in a real world sense

[wooden totem]

cyberpunk only has less than 17 devs left on the project

out of starting 627

[wild rose]

I hope they do an update for an enhaced PS5 pro.

[wary ocean]

the dev cycle i think is complete with the phantom liberty dlc

although i do think another cyberpunk game was confirmed

[wary ocean]

like a port or graphic enhanced?

[wild rose]

but their main focus now is Witcher 4.

graphical enhancement with 4k, 40 or 60 FPS and ray tracing.

[wary ocean]

for how expensive the ps5 was youd think it would be able to handle the game at max graphics 60fps

[wild rose]

well the pro version was $700, pricey but I can afforded it.

[blazing granite]

I've seen that netflix series for a sec I though you were talking about season 4 😂

[wary ocean]

i need to finish the witcher series

like the books not the games

[opaque flax]

Like he’s got his own starlink?

[sick lance]

Great, now we all gotta see it

[wild rose]

Naw they changed Geralt's actor, so I lost interest.

[dark mason]

He said more dumb stuff

[opaque flax]

He came in last night and asked if anyone does “server hacking”

And kgb responded with everyone lol

[mossy river]

If I could ask you to not post screenshots of their DMs here^
Trying to avoid unnecessary drama 😄 they were banned, out of sight out of mind

[dark mason]

Okii, sorry, will not happen again

[thin hound]

Yeah, I can hack a server. All I got to do is metasploit trace route the icmp packets through an RSA encrypted firewall using a vpn and tor on my Kali linox

[wild rose]

but I'm still excited for Witcher 4, but have mixed feelings since the main character isn't Geralt.

[mossy river]

It's okay! I appreciate it 😊

[wary ocean]

i cant wait til Crossroad of Ravens gets translated to english

[sand trench]

well when bored and not having anything else to do so shadow starts messing with porting ploopy mouse to vial-qmk

[wild rose]

That's one of the books? Haven't read them, but the world building is so interesting to me.

[wary ocean]

its the new book

it hasnt been translated to english yet but its in polish

[rapid merlin]

😂

[wary ocean]

it was released nov 29 2024

[wooden totem]

the lambs bow to the shepherd

[wary ocean]

although i dont think crossroad of ravens is directly to witcher 4

i think that mighve been the last book or few books he released

i need to get sword of destiny but i kinda wanna finish total blackout and firestarters first

[wild rose]

Are they in order or is it a different storyline altogether?

[rapid merlin]

Favorite processor?
Laptop?

[wooden totem]

this is a bot

[wary ocean]

which ones? total blackout and firestarters is 2 different series, but i dont think his books are in cronilogical order

with the release dates

theres articles tho which collectively agree on the orders tho

[wild rose]

oh i see. thought we were still talking about the Witcher series.

[wary ocean]

nah nah, i just have 2 other books i want to finish

the only one ive read was the last wish which is a pre story

[rapid merlin]

Skyrim is better Daedric warlord

[blazing granite]

@mossy river political much 🙂

[mossy river]

Please keep politics out of the server as per our community rules 🙂

[rapid merlin]

2 platinum ps3/ps4 beat it of move on

[wary ocean]

only thing i hate with the witcher series is how slow the last wish is at times

idk if he changes that later on but theres a lot where its just there to be there, it doesnt effect the perspective of the reader to geralt or any other character

[rapid merlin]

Society is slower than the Witcher

[rapid merlin]

I loved the Witcher, I wish men like that existed 🤣

[wild rose]

I need to get back to some of these emails, before starting Forspoken, one of 2023's worst games.

[sick lance]

Mutants?

[wary ocean]

150+ year old white haired men?

[rapid merlin]

White hair, stunning eyes, fighter

[rapid merlin]

Yes

[wary ocean]

so santa

[blazing granite]

I was about to ask the same 😂

[rapid merlin]

Gandalf was also handsome

😆

[sick lance]

Aren't Wither eyes yellow?

[wary ocean]

yes

[sick lance]

Witcher*

[rapid merlin]

I’m only joking Im Jewish. I don’t condone with with.

[rapid merlin]

They were stunning

[wary ocean]

they turned yellow after the trial of the grasses

which is what turned him into a witcher

[wild rose]

Aren't they doing a remake of the first game? I can't remember if this is true.

[rapid merlin]

I can’t reverify tonight

[wary ocean]

late 2026 is what im seeing

[rapid merlin]

Because I don’t want to connect my phone to the Chromebook

[wary ocean]

tbf the books are 10x better than game

[halcyon dune]

I have ancestors who were jewish and have jewish surname, but I think my family has been christian overall for at least 200 years.

[wary ocean]

tho tts-ing names for characters is hell

[wild rose]

yeah what happen to your role?

[halcyon dune]

🤔

[dark mason]

What are your opinions on HTB?

[wary ocean]

its good if you have prior knowledge

[dark mason]

I heard a lot of people say that thm are training wheels for htb

[wary ocean]

thm is step by step with the idea you know nothing, meanwhile htb is for people with general understandings of the subjects which get more in depth with htb

[knotty cargo]

I feel like thm is hobbyist thing

Htb is a job thing

[dark mason]

I will get a HTB subscription this summer

[knotty cargo]

But yeah starting with thm is good

[dark mason]

Until then I wanna finish things with thm

[mossy river]

I would love to hear why you think so 🙂

[knotty cargo]

And thm is a lot cheaper too

[dark mason]

(+ I need to beg my school for an email to get the student discount)

[knotty cargo]

Hmm its complicated

[mossy river]

You can get the student discount if you have a student id or enrolment documents

[sharp citrus]

https://help.tryhackme.com/en/articles/6494960-student-discount

Jan 13, 2025, 8:03 PM

[knotty cargo]

Let me think about it for a minute

[wary ocean]

tbh thm is good to get started to see if you like the subject with an easier introduction to it

[dark mason]

THM helped me land a contract at 16, so...

[dark mason]

I can what now.

[mossy river]

TryHackMe helped me get employed at 17 It was by TryHackMe but technically that counts

[rugged kayak]

i would say thm feels more ctf-y and more puzzly, while htb feels a lot more professional and real world like

[rapid merlin]

I got compromised and lost access to all my accounts. I got back into this one but not the others.

[knotty cargo]

Yeah if it works then thats nice

[dark mason]

JOB IS JOB.

[knotty cargo]

Well if u compare cpts to the ejpt from thm

[mossy river]

What do you mean by CTF-y?

[knotty cargo]

Cpts feels like job grade

[mossy river]

I'm genuinely interested, please don't feel like I'm trying to defend or explain TryHackMe

[rugged kayak]

lemme think about good room example

[knotty cargo]

I agree on this

Every one has its goods

[normal fable]

Both HTB and THM are good platforms to learn. There are LOTS of people who use both. 🙂

[mellow gull]

Recently especially THM has informed me on topics that I feel like HTB would never feel inclined to go into, really. The walkthroughs and boxes on forensics and IR/DFIR have been absolutely phenomenal. They each have their own place when it comes to education and real world application.

[knotty cargo]

Htb's subscription to enter the labs is soo expensive compared to thm

[rugged kayak]

they are both good yes, but htb has more professional feel to it

[rugged kayak]

take U.A High School as example

[knotty cargo]

If i wasnt a student i wont ever go htb

[rugged kayak]

stego rooms

vs for example recent silver platter

[dark mason]

Wallet go boom

[rugged kayak]

both easy rooms

[wooden totem]

if htb was cheaper I would grind that shit out

[knotty cargo]

Real

[mossy river]

That is a challenge room, correct?

[rugged kayak]

yes

[knotty cargo]

Yeah student sub is 8$

[sick lance]

Community created one.

[mossy river]

Well, that makes sense, it is a CTF style room 😁

[knotty cargo]

But i cant enter labs 😭

[normal fable]

I started with hackthissite then started HTB and now THM pretty much exclusively. There is 1000s of hours of learning material on THM.

[dark mason]

Malware analysis module is sick

[mossy river]

Do you have the same opinion from any of our walkthrough rooms or learning paths? @rugged kayak

[knotty cargo]

So yeah the ctf rooms from thm with htb paths are nice and wallet friendly combination

[rapid merlin]

Because I lost access to my accounts I stared a DFIR course on coursera 😆

[sick lance]

U A highschool was created by community members

[rugged kayak]

learning paths are amazing i love them

[mossy river]

^This is also a good point

[rugged kayak]

its just difference in realism

but i dont mean that either of them are bad

just different

[knotty cargo]

Every platform has the goods and bads

[blazing granite]

I have that one 😂

[mossy river]

By the way, is everyone happy for me to pass on what I am writing down as "feedback"? 😄

[rugged kayak]

sure

[pine stratus]

and person like you is the reason of thm will increase the price of the sub

[mellow gull]

👍

[pine stratus]

🥹

[normal fable]

Feedback: I really like THM's format. 🙂 Works great for me.

[knotty cargo]

Ur about to underestimate thm lol

Very chill about it

[mossy river]

Hm?

[blazing granite]

@normal fable 👋 how are you?

[knotty cargo]

I meant

Im bad at english so

Feedback was nice

[knotty cargo]

[normal fable]

I'm doing good Rex. How are you? Just here taking care of my dad while step-mom is out for a few.

[sick lance]

I can't say too much, but future content might not seem too ctf'ish

Which is created by in house

[normal fable]

I gotta go wake him up in a bit. Can't let him nap all day. lol

[knotty cargo]

Price of thm sub is a very powerful upside

[normal fable]

Yearly THM sub is best bang for your buck (best price) imo.

[blazing granite]

I'm well, I hope you dad is ok

[normal fable]

Parkinson's.. so it's hit and miss.

[knotty cargo]

Im here discussing while i have an exam tomorrow morning ans i didnt finish half of the book

[rugged kayak]

cant wait for it

[normal fable]

Been doing THM rooms between work.. down time is chill THM time. 🙂

[blazing granite]

that's tricky my dad had Alzheimer so I understand what good days and bad days are

[rapid merlin]

Went to heart react and couldn’t

[dark mason]

Thm is a way for me to relax. (Unless ctfs, these are hours of frustration because you didn't enumerate enough)

[whole yew]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-gif-3425669563334334864

[whole yew]

i think reactions are restricted to verified thm accounts

[blazing granite]

@boreal scarab how are you this fine afternoon? 🙂

[wary ocean]

its always a good feeling when you get a answer right by just going "i think thats how it goes"

[dark mason]

Also, I have a question, from what age is the student discount, from high-school? Or college?

[deft dew]

Hello guys ,
I wanna learn Security Research, is there any roadmaps or recommended courses?

[mossy river]

No age:) As long as you are in an educational institution it should be fine.
Support will confirm

[dark mason]

Oh damn, that's awesome

[wary ocean]

a college keeps contacting me on attending when ive told them i cant go 💀

they sent me a welcome thing saying ive been accepted for the 2025 school year, like yea thats cool but i cant go

[knotty cargo]

Wait is there a student sub ?

I didnt know that

My thm wasnt made with my student account, can i still get student sub on this ?

[wary ocean]

might be able to change email address

just make sure the school dont delete emails after grad

[sharp citrus]

Jan 13, 2025, 8:26 PM

[rugged kayak]

i dont like that only supported domain is ac.uk

[dark mason]

And .edu

[rugged kayak]

i got student discount on htb academy with my student mail

[sick lance]

Support can manually assign student status

[wary ocean]

my student email isnt even active atm cuz i dont start til 2025

[rugged kayak]

i already paid yearly sub its of no use now

[wary ocean]

even tho im kinda ass backwards, doing cyber stuff now and then going to college with a soc job 😅

[dark mason]

It is

[knotty cargo]

Lets goo

[dark mason]

Next year you will pay way less

[rugged kayak]

next year is far away honestly

[wary ocean]

not really

closer than you think imo

[rugged kayak]

i mean yes and no at the same time

[dark mason]

• I got the subscription on blackfriday, so I willget a 70% discount + another 20% from this year, so in total I will pay 10% this year

[rugged kayak]

a lot can happen in a year

[pine stratus]

@mossy river why don't you add other payment methods in thm?

[dark mason]

Like?

[wary ocean]

does anyone know if the sub renews automatically?

[dark mason]

It does

[pine stratus]

usdt , btc

[dark mason]

They use stripe

They won't change the whole payment system just to add crypto

[steep mountain]

is there a video on how to convert a target ip to a domain name?

[sick lance]

Add it to hosts?

[steep mountain]

yes

I get error for some reason, I was thinking maybe because nano wasn't updated but that wasn't the case

[dark mason]

What error?

[steep mountain]

This error

[dark mason]

Did you try sudo nano?

[sick lance]

You need to sudo the /etc/hosts file.

[dark mason]

Or if still not working sudo su

[steep mountain]

so it would be
sudo nano /etc/hosts ?

[sick lance]

With whatever text editors you use.

[dark mason]

Yeah

[steep mountain]

Okay

[sick lance]

Nah, let's not run commands in root 💀

Sudo works fine for that

[finite basalt]

only run commands in root when required 🤣

[dark mason]

"Root? What could possibly go wron-"

[wary ocean]

(me who runs my linux in root all the time)

[finite basalt]

marginally better than what I used to do

[dark mason]

Me before corrupting my OS that one time

[finite basalt]

I used to set the password for the root user so I could login to it

[rapid merlin]

I can't remember the last time I used su for root

[finite basalt]

mind you that was when I was maybe 14 so I didn't know better haha

[rapid merlin]

or logged in with root for that matter

[dark mason]

I remember

When u do CTFs

[opaque flax]

I’m lazy and I sudo su so I can do echo “<ip> <domain>” >> /etc/hosts

[dark mason]

Your end goal is root :)

[rapid merlin]

I was thinking on my own systems

but yes, I like that 😄

[wary ocean]

windows wont let you uninstall certain files meanwhile linux is okay with uninstalling the whole damn os from a machine

[finite basalt]

it will if you escalate to the trustedinstaller haha

[rapid merlin]

sshd_config PermitRootLogin no

[dark mason]

That's stupid

Like

Don't

[finite basalt]

It's not a standard user

[opaque flax]

NT Authority/System

[dark mason]

I know

[finite basalt]

protected files are often owned by the trusted installer as that's what handles installation of drivers and software iirc

[dark mason]

If you need to be trusted installer for some reason

No you don't

Stay put

[finite basalt]

you should never need to be the trusted user

[wary ocean]

for some reason my sfm was listed as an admin folder so i couldnt uninstall it 😭

[dark mason]

Ok, maybe sometimes

[finite basalt]

but if for whatever reason you desperately wanted to break your system by deleting all the files you could by escalating to trusted user as it's the equivilant of being the system user but with permission to the trusted installer files that not even NT Authority/System can touch

like even the System user can't delete trusted installer files, only the TrustedInstaller can but that is System with a couple of extra permissions

On windows you can do most of the things you can do on linux but with extra hoops imo

[dark mason]

Gl removing all the Spyware

[finite basalt]

Like you can replace the explorer shell but you have to patch it using other software or reg tweaks

[finite basalt]

You can definitely do a lot of it using software to remove it or by changing dns settings to prevent the collection of data

It's just a lot of work

[dark mason]

The headache is not worth it

[wary ocean]

yall remember a few months ago when windows had a os breaking bug that made the whole os just not work

[dark mason]

You have to redo it all over sgain when windows updates

[finite basalt]

That's my point though, you can do anything you want in windows but the headache and extra work aren't worth it whereas linux just lets you

[dark mason]

Crowdstrike?

[finite basalt]

Not a new thing unfortunately

My favourite was the windows update that purged all network drivers

[rapid merlin]

when you're not running in safe mode, you're running in unsafe mode 😁

[rapid merlin]

that was quite the patch

[wary ocean]

idk it was like auguestwhen a update was rolled out but when computers updated to it it was only the blue screen

[finite basalt]

I remember shouting at MSFT tech support after telling them their update keeps purging my network drivers when I install windows and update and they said "have you tried using ethernet instead of wifi or vice versa" after I said I'd tried both

[rapid merlin]

null bytes iirc

[finite basalt]

and they didn't fix that for years

[dark mason]

Yeah, crowdstrike

[dark mason]

It was very fun for me

I WAS STUCK

[finite basalt]

it was a combined failure on crowdstrike and microsoft's part

[dark mason]

IN THE AIRPORT

[rapid merlin]

oh geez

[opaque flax]

Please run sfc /scannow

[wary ocean]

i got to go home early cuz my warehouse couldnt operate

[finite basalt]

although crowdstrike did a great job handling it I would absolutely say (as a software and platform dev), never push on friday 🤣

[finite basalt]

and dism 😭

[wary ocean]

the IT guy had everything be auto updates FOR EVERYTHING

[opaque flax]

Thanks msft forums

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @finite basalt (current: #105 - 74)

[finite basalt]

only for them to then say I could pay £150 for better support which would likely tell me to just reinstall windows

[wary ocean]

he tried to fix it and broke the network, how he did that, idk

[sick lance]

But... But... Have you tried it?

[finite basalt]

I mean it's not good cause it broke it but at least he's trying to keep things up-to-date with security etc.

[wary ocean]

hed give out the admin creds if you asked for them

[rapid merlin]

a long time ago I remember someone running something on a very large database, and on like day 2 in the middle of the night, autoupdates rebooted the system, killing the day long process half way in 😦

[finite basalt]

No, I refuse to pay £150 quid because they push things that break my devices, it's a matter of principal 😦

[wary ocean]

well it was his account creds but he was damn near to admin

only thing he couldnt do was remove or add GM's

[finite basalt]

It's the same I had with dell when I said they could send me a replacement or full refund under the consumer rights act because I said I wasn't going to pay for a repair when they were legally obliged and sold me a defective device and failed to fix it 3 times, ended up spending £200 on a temporary replacement which I ended up keeping

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/it-problem-phone-call-have-you-tried-turning-it-off-and-on-again-gif-17823069

[finite basalt]

I'll never pay money to someone who broke my things to fix my things. That's the equivilant of extortion/blackmail to me

[finite basalt]

I remember having a period of time that actually broke my windows install every week

[rapid merlin]

the expert will ask if the system has been turned on and off 😄

[celest dirge]

https://tenor.com/view/maurice-moss-unexpected-reboot-it-crowd-reboot-richard-ayoade-gif-11294807

[wary ocean]

the IT guy was fired after he cussed out the GM, but he'd straight up just hand out his account details like nothing bad was gonna happen

[finite basalt]

if I left my computer on it would last a few weeks before needing a fresh install whereas if I rebooted regularly it was a matter of 5 days, turned out the motherboard "auto" voltage combined with power saving features was giving too low a voltage to the RAM and needed to be switched to normal

[blazing granite]

is not that difficult 😉 😂

[finite basalt]

That actually was the worst errors because they weren't indicative that it was RAM

[boreal scarab]

You need to re-verify

[finite basalt]

took a good 6 months to figure it out, it'd be random file errors that changed each time

[rapid merlin]

memtest time

[boreal scarab]

Tired

[rapid merlin]

that can be scary when data gets corrupted unexpectedly, and makes it to backups without it being noticed

[finite basalt]

That experience is the reason I don't use power saving stuff on my desktops now

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/coffee-need-coffee-gif-5803308545565389362

[finite basalt]

I stopped storing valuable stuff on there, we had a home server with raid specifically for valuable files anyway haha

that server now happens to be my old computer (the one that had ram errors) as I fixed it by changing the voltage to normal and disabling power saving stuff and has had no problems in about 8 years

[finite basalt]

I should not have smiled reading that

[sick lance]

Why not, it's funny.

[wary ocean]

is he a fat dog?

nah hes just a lil husky

[finite basalt]

it's so bad it's great

I love it

[wary ocean]

i leveled up to master? wth 😂

[finite basalt]

on par with my own humour

[devout palm]

Congratz!

[finite basalt]

we organised a bnb for securi-tay this year and my mate said "I'm happy as long as I don't have to share a bed" and I responded with "hi happy"

[wary ocean]

if he dances you can call him happy feet

[finite basalt]

I'll let them know 🤣

[wooden totem]

What do you call a lazy kangaroo

[wary ocean]

kantaroo

[finite basalt]

go on 👀

[finite basalt]

if there's kareoke at the after party there may well be dancing too haha

i'm dying to know why it's not working with me

[wary ocean]

me when that one coworker who acts like a motion sensor

[lost kelp]

oh i cant send pics here

openvpn not working with me

idk why

[blazing granite]

did you try a psychologist? 😂

[austere verge]

I should try this on my main computer

Jan 13, 2025, 9:10 PM

[austere verge]

Jk I googled what -rf does

[blazing granite]

@lost kelp follow that link

[wary ocean]

this may be stupid, how yall delete shit on the right side of the type line

[finite basalt]

it won't actually work on modern linux unless you add the --no-preserve-root flag

[devout palm]

I don't know why but i want to write python code so badly rn

[finite basalt]

what do you mean sorry

[finite basalt]

man I was doing C# for uni and work and was so done by the end of the module 🤣

[austere verge]

Open vs code and type print hello world

[devout palm]

Dude i am sick of classes already. I have OOP in python exam tomorrow. I need to memorize every tkinter function.

[finite basalt]

had to record a video showing the module assignment and the code and I said, "I didn't do this bit because between external circumstances and doing C# for work as well, I'm stressed out and chose not to"

[wary ocean]

like how backspace will delete content to the left, ive seen people delete characters to the right without going to the end of what their deleting

idk if that made anymore sense

[sick lance]

@dark mason No harmful commands in chat please.

[finite basalt]

the delete button "del"

[sick lance]

Yeah, del button. 😄

[finite basalt]

OOP in python is grim

[sick lance]

Same key used for CTRl+ALT+DEL.

[finite basalt]

absolutely diabolical work from your university giving you oop in python

[devout palm]

Yeah, why the f not C# or something else

[wary ocean]

holy shit thats gonna save so much time

thanks

[devout palm]

Or C++

[finite basalt]

we did java for the first two years and then they suddenly switched to C# without any warning

[devout palm]

You can do anything with python but that doesn't make it highly OOP focused language

[finite basalt]

fine for me as I've done both but my class is a mixed skillset, some are really good and had no problem adjusting, some were barely scraping a pass in java and got thrown a new language

[devout palm]

And tkinter isn't a OOP topic

Screw this

[finite basalt]

yeah for sure

[devout palm]

We finished an entire python handbook

I am gonna cry

[finite basalt]

Literally asked a question about C# unit tests and my tutor said "I don't know sorry, I do java", I'm there thinking, how're you doing a c# module man 😭

I think I've only looked at maybe 20 lectures overall in 4 years

and 19 of them were in first year 🤣

[devout palm]

Damn

Harsh start

[austere verge]

I hate junit tests w a passion

[finite basalt]

I realised it wasn't worth it and only watched one in second year cause our tutor said they could see we weren't watching them, I didn't bother after that

[sick lance]

Psyduck!

[devout palm]

I got the "Project 1" class from top (I won't take it next year if i do now)

Now i need to finish it by Friday

[sick lance]

[austere verge]

I will print shit to the console in the same class rather than create a separate class for testing

[finite basalt]

My issue with unit tests is purely that our uni expects unit tests for graphics drawing assignments, which a proper unit test for that (imo) would be to compare the hashes of a known correct picture and ensure they match but for a uni module I'm not going to that length

that and making literally everything into a class for the sake of it, or subjective marking on comments

[finite basalt]

that's coming up soon, how're you getting on with it

[devout palm]

Eh i told my lecturer that i want to do something related to reverse engineering and he was like "Fine"

[rapid merlin]

I won’t be able to get in. I had google Authenticator on my account and I lost all my accounts

[finite basalt]

ah nice man, at least it's interesting

[devout palm]

Normally this project would beat all project 1,2 and finishing project

[wooden totem]

I'm actually so afraid of my alarm that I subconsciously wake up 10 minutes before it every single day

[boreal scarab]

[rapid merlin]

Yep

[finite basalt]

that's very handy to have then for sure

[devout palm]

Others do something like student scheduling program etc. easy shit

[knotty cargo]

Im thinking about doing a cool graduation project

Idk if it exists already

[finite basalt]

Yeah we have that for dissertation, it's actually a production project for most people

[knotty cargo]

Crypt analysis using AI

[devout palm]

Yeah but he didn't accept this. This goes for project 1 and i need to make 2 other projects

[finite basalt]

And a lot do vulnerable websites/platforms for learning

[devout palm]

I am cooked

[finite basalt]

ahh I see

[devout palm]

Yeah my friend just made his project in a day

Lol

[finite basalt]

I mean my dissertation supervisor told me if I did my dissertation that he'd give me no marks and I told him the university policy and wished him good luck
He changed his tune after I asked him if he was threatening me

[wooden totem]

Is there no recovery process

[wary ocean]

i still have arthur morgan alarm 😂

turns out hearing "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU" at 6am will wake you up

[devout palm]

It's my fault. Why did i want such a hard project that would be worth 3 projects...

[rapid merlin]

I dunno but I gotta be up early

[finite basalt]

better that you're interested in the project you do for sure though

[rapid merlin]

Sort that out in the morning

[devout palm]

Stealth back

Hei

[wooden totem]

I have calm piano for alarm sound, so it doesn't scare me

[devout palm]

Yeah it is really fun. I am making an obfuscator.

[rapid merlin]

I got compromised and lost my accounts

[finite basalt]

Unfortunately my dissertation supervisor is combative and stupid, if he was either stupid or ignorant I'd be fine but unfortunately he's both 😭

[devout palm]

Sheet.

[finite basalt]

that's shit that, hope you get em back

[rapid merlin]

👁️👄👁️

[devout palm]

Is it the uhh

Stalker

You talked about

[rapid merlin]

Yes

[devout palm]

Darnn

[finite basalt]

He argued semantics with me before I left the room and told his class some strong words about what I thought of him

[devout palm]

Academical crisis

[oblique furnace]

my wallpaper on kali, feel free to use :p

[finite basalt]

I actually proceeded to the course director and complained immediately after the first meeting

[wooden totem]

Yall got such interesting lives wth lol

[rapid merlin]

It had to be the same people. I was trying to get a password reset and they were texting me codes off phone numbers

[devout palm]

What are you studying btw?

[finite basalt]

I actually sent him an email where I bollocked him for failing to do his job and cc'ed in the course director, he then tried to deflect blame onto me which I ignored and explained to the course director that I hadn't responded as I had nothing nice to say to him 🤣

[finite basalt]

Cyber security and digital forensics 🙂

[devout palm]

Yeah best to stay silent in that case

[finite basalt]

I actually have that same lecturer for mobile forensics this semester and I'm going to be his least favourite student, I'm going to be correcting him on everything

[wooden totem]

Goodnight clams

[devout palm]

Well, just keep quiet. I learnt it the hard way ahahaha

[finite basalt]

👋 gn

[knotty cargo]

I hate when this happens

[rapid merlin]

My mumma always said if you got nothing nice to say then don’t say nothing at all. I must have forgot though

[knotty cargo]

I got a lot of haters in the uni to the point it became problematic

[finite basalt]

Nah, I'm petty, I said to my parents, if he wants a competition of who can be the bigger arsehole I absolutely will play ball but I want him to know I'm playing grand champ on ranked pettiness

[knotty cargo]

Even if i dont get a good grade, im still hated

[devout palm]

I don't give a shit about university now. It's just to pass exams and socialize.

Only focusing to improve myself further

[knotty cargo]

It is but mentally ill students starting causing me probelms

[finite basalt]

He mentioned about references after I sent him a proof of concept and said it was a first quick draft and was prepared to send him corrections of his definitions with cited and referenced sources in my emails to him

[knotty cargo]

If i dont answer their endless questions on whatsapp then im an enemy

[finite basalt]

I cannot wait to finish and am very happy that I switched from the integrated masters to the bachelors because I will never go back to that university despite them offering discounts if you stay on for a masters

[devout palm]

Oh is it also paid?

[finite basalt]

yeah, 9.25k per year

[knotty cargo]

Daym..

[devout palm]

Mine is free. I won't give a shit if they kick me out or if i just leave

[finite basalt]

so I am paying the university and getting a tutor who should've been fired four years ago

[devout palm]

I wouldn't be sad about it

[knotty cargo]

Its like 5000$ here total

[devout palm]

But my parents wouldn't be so happy either

[rapid merlin]

Uni is so much money 😭

[finite basalt]

or rather I'm accruing student debt to fund it

[knotty cargo]

Same

It is good to have a degree tho

But parents over estimate it

[devout palm]

That really sucks. But i think in these situations, it is best to comply with them. Ask yourself "Is it worth it?" before going further with the said tutor

[finite basalt]

this was the email I'd sent to the tutor and course director after his failure to do his job haha

[sick lance]

Can we please not bring drama in to the server: 🙏

[olive owl]

Hey guys, I graduated some time ago in BSCS. I did not learn any cybersecurity in university. My interest is in learning it. What path should I follow?
All suggestions are helpful. Thankyou in advance

[polar shale]

Hi ppl

[finite basalt]

That's fair 🤣
To be fair to the uni though the other tutors are actually really good, I'm not saying the university as a whole is bad

[devout palm]

Yeah same for me

Some tutors, i would 100% work with

[finite basalt]

if I've got some advice for you though

[devout palm]

But they don't have much time to spare

[knotty cargo]

The 🙏 part

[sick lance]

Let's not have negative comments such as this please.

[knotty cargo]

[finite basalt]

If you get to know a particular lecturer, ask them if they'd be happy to take on your dissertation, that way you won't end up with a random lecturer

[knotty cargo]

[.]

[devout palm]

Dissertation is the final project before graduating, right?

[finite basalt]

yeah that's the one

if you have a lecturer who is either competent or interested in your dissertation it's a lot less stress and you'll probably do better

[rapid merlin]

What on earth are the videos on your YouTube

[olive owl]

Can i learn from tryhackme and land a job?

[finite basalt]

if you land a job purely through tryhackme I'll be surprised but it's a good platform to get started with

[olive owl]

they dont teach all stuff

[rapid merlin]

“You would never want this” videos look so dodgy 😭

[finite basalt]

it's like going to university, don't let universitybe the only thing you do for 3 years and expect a job at the end

[rapid merlin]

Are they videos you’ve liked

👁️👄👁️

[devout palm]

++++++++

[olive owl]

Please suggest any good youtubers

[mossy river]

@boreal scarab Do you have a phonk playlist?

[untold sentinel]

Lebron james

[devout palm]

Most people in my class are like this, i am sad.

[snow palm]

mood

[finite basalt]

go to conferences, do stuff in your free time to learn outside university etc.

[devout palm]

They don't improve themselves. Just studying to pass exams

[finite basalt]

exactly that

[devout palm]

Despite the fact that it is not high school anymore

[rapid merlin]

Says I have to be signed in to watch that video 👀

[finite basalt]

I mean I study to pass my exams when it comes to university but that's because I do other stuff in my free-time and am usually ahead of the course content anyway

[half girder]

@rapid merlin dm?

[finite basalt]

like if you do stuff outside uni it can be hugely beneficial to your course work

[devout palm]

I believe i am living my youth at fullest, even though i complain about some couple things.

[finite basalt]

I've turned old and miserable and I'm not even old yet

it's not looking good for the future me icl

[half girder]

it wont become better, you gonna be grumpy 😉

[devout palm]

Yeah, same.

[knotty cargo]

Im 20 and i developed white hair

[snow palm]

how old are you mate?

[finite basalt]

I know 🤣
I'm not pessimistic or optimistic, just realistic haha

[olive owl]

is there a roadmap?

[finite basalt]

21 haha, still a little boy

[mossy river]

https://tryhackme.com/hacktivities

[snow palm]

you're gonna be george clooney someday

[snow palm]

alright well what's the reason you're grumpy then?

[finite basalt]

university and a lack of cats in my life

[devout palm]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-berg-cat-orange-cat-swimming-gif-25177582

Here ahahaha

[snow palm]

come on man i was trying to be optimistic

[finite basalt]

my plan is to finish uni, work fulltime and save up money for a house, get a mortgage and invest in cats

[knotty cargo]

There are tens of stray cats outside go get one

[finite basalt]

we actually skipped a class a bunch of us before christmas to go to a local cat cafe

[knotty cargo]

Its real

[finite basalt]

I was 50/50 as to whether I send my tutor an email that in summary would be "my mental health is currently more important than your class so I'm off to a cat cafe, peace"

[rapid merlin]

I don’t really know what to say

[devout palm]

About jobs, i think i am currently capable of having a job but i choose to spend my university time for self improvement.

[knotty cargo]

We have a stray cat that stands infront of the door, pretends it has a broken hand and keeps meowing, when we feer her it goes walking normally

[snow palm]

well if you're ahead of the university content anyway, i don't see a reason for you to be grumpy. it may sound a bit hypocritical from a usually grumpy person like me, however if the reason you don't like things is not politics, you have so much to discover

[half girder]

ok

[mossy river]

Let's keep it appropriate, hey?

[snow palm]

since you are doing well in university and can pass the exams with ease, you can take some time off and try out something else. sitting in front of the PC too much can make one very grumpy yes

[mossy river]

Kangafoo only asked to DM with MissStealth.

[glass nest]

more.. a rectangle. At the very least, a parallelogram of some sort.

[snow palm]

"yes" or "no, sorry"

[devout palm]

Nice advice. (Me goes for alcohol)

[knotty cargo]

Bro passed vibe check

[finite basalt]

I'm ahead but the organisation of some of the course content is diabolical and then I have my dissertation tutor who I could rant for years about but won't and the previous semester a programming tutor who tried to evaluate my skill (with no success) and repeatedly told me that I wouldn't have enough time to do the assignment my way

[snow palm]

asking someone to shoot a DM is not rizzing mate

[glass nest]

I'm old. /define 'rizzing' please?

[finite basalt]

flirting

[devout palm]

Mmmm attracting?

[snow palm]

ohhh okay now i understand. well that sucks, i can relate to your grumpyness now

[finite basalt]

it is gen-z brainrot slang 🤣

[mossy river]

Rizz is short for charisma

ehhh I'll wait if there's any resales. I said to Muiri like a year or two ago that I wanted to give a talk at some point but .....

[finite basalt]

oh absolutely, I've got to start applying to more places, only applied to one job so far but it was such a long application process that I was done after that one haha

[mossy river]

Just a friendly reminder that this is a professional environment, and we encourage respectful communication. To clarify, Kangfoo only requested to DM MissStealth, and no inappropriate behaviour occurred. It's important not to make assumptions in such cases:)

[lone thistle]

need to pull the trigger

[snow palm]

which country are you from?

[lone thistle]

and I have probably missed submissions

[glass nest]

Pull the trigger? for a... lyrical blow? to the Jaw (for example)?

[knotty cargo]

No bro the world needs u

[lone thistle]

welp

[finite basalt]

no worries, it's the 28th feb but there's a pre-party on the 27th iirc

[mossy river]

Much appreciated 😊

[devout palm]

Next year i will let you know about it. When do submissions happen?

[finite basalt]

I think they close today, I'm not sure

[lone thistle]

The pre-party I am infamously aware of

[devout palm]

Are scots considered british?

[lone thistle]

[sick lance]

[mossy river]

Yes

[finite basalt]

my nickname was blameburr and after sending a picture of a sports direct mug it was called aggressively bri'ish and I ended up being aggresively burr'ish

[glass nest]

Garage peaked in the mid 00's. Krupt FM. 108.5. on the dial.

[finite basalt]

Burrish - They are more... ceramic buckets

[pulsar comet]

Does anyone know the fix to the problem I put in #site-bugs

[pallid lotus]

Not if we have anything to say about it

[pulsar comet]

I can’t get the error message to stop popping up whenever I start a machine

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @mossy river (current: #6 - 1430)

[finite basalt]

[devout palm]

How's you? My non burrish homie

[pallid lotus]

Whoooo. Not actually sure whether I'm going yet lmao

[snow palm]

or per DM as well. i'm not a mod but maybe i've had the same error message before

[finite basalt]

ahh fair enough, you submitted a talk?

[pulsar comet]

Never mind bro it just fixed by itself I guess all I had to do was wait a little

The message not showing up no more

[pallid lotus]

Busy. Second week back in and I have dealt with an unbelievable amount of shit

[snow palm]

[pallid lotus]

Nah, not this year. Too busy

[rapid merlin]

Delete Facebook

[snow palm]

[finite basalt]

ahh that's fair man, well if I see you I'll say hi of course

[mossy river]

How will I use my metaquest3

[snow palm]

fucking AI friends

[pallid lotus]

Aye, absolutely

[snow palm]

what the actual shit is zuck thinking

[pallid lotus]

Yes please

[finite basalt]

that's something as well @lone thistle I've a housemate who submitted a talk so if his ticket may be available, not sure yet though, depends on society members and if he gets the talk

[pallid lotus]

Anyone else remember when Meta screwed up their BGP routes and took themselves out for a day? Planet breathed a sigh of relief... for a few precious hours

[devout palm]

Ouh good luck with that. Assuming you are looking forward to the weekend then.

[lone thistle]

yeah no danger mate cheers

[pallid lotus]

You realise there are still tickets available right?

[finite basalt]

there are?

[pallid lotus]

They managed to somehow not sell out immediately this year

Something something price increase alongside capacity increase

[glass nest]

@pallid lotus If you have.. umm.. 3hrs spare... Hypnotising and strangely motivational --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJxBUOS3L8s&ab_channel=LuxonBushcraft

@silver sky Might like it too

[finite basalt]

yeah I saw that, I didn't realise there were still some available

[pallid lotus]

A "few left" now apparently

[pallid lotus]

Oh wow

[devout palm]

Wow... Added to the list of "Things to do before dying"

[snow palm]

judging by the title i first thought these are these fake tribal building videos in thailand but this looks sick

[glass nest]

Just the quiet focus of the guy. Just getting stuff done.

[finite basalt]

yeah there's no tickets that include the after party but there's still tickets for the conference

[glass nest]

All on his own aswell

[snow palm]

man's a real life skyrim character

[pallid lotus]

Not true... he has doggo

[devout palm]

Emotional support

[glass nest]

Miuiri - Also, His rnage of tools. He has a Chainsaw, drill, planer, router and hand-tools.

[finite basalt]

Am getting the train up as well which I'm actually looking forward to

[wild rose]

emotional support character

[finite basalt]

speaking of, I bought some spanners recently to add to my collection

[glass nest]

Like.. Even with my garage full, I couldnt even come close to what he just.... casually churned out

[snow palm]

male role model character

[glass nest]

Tools are always a good purchase

Except from Lidl.

[finite basalt]

My tool collection

[sick lance]

Milk, bread and chainsaw

[glass nest]

Whats in the box?

[snow palm]

everything in lidl is absolute trash

[gritty olive]

Hello Guys, anyone new in cybersecurity?

[finite basalt]

Got a stanley socket set, some generic allen keys, a dsl multitool, an ifixit manta kit, draper spanner set and duratech adjustable spanner

[snow palm]

kind of. why?

[gritty olive]

Because i am also new and I don’t want to feel alone

[finite basalt]

the allen keys and the socket set I actually nicked off my dad with his permission as he has a bigger socket set and another set of metric allen keys so I took them to uni in case I needed to work on a bike or in case anyone was doing some work on cars and needed to borrow them

[sick lance]

You have all of us.

[opaque flax]

You’re not alone when surrounded by all these people

[glass nest]

Sweet. a good socket set pays for itself

[opaque flax]

(We’re all script kiddies)

[finite basalt]

not entirely true, I got a really nice candle there for decoration

[snow palm]

no reason to. this is not the C++ stackexchange area where you get bullied by miserable senior programmers for not knowing something

[finite basalt]

absolutely, I'll buy a bigger set some time but this was free and should be decent for a lot of stuff so more than enough for now

[devout palm]

Github pull requests be like

[finite basalt]

At some point I might even just assemble my own toolbox instead of buying a premade set

[glass nest]

I actually have 2 of the medium Magnusson sets - one stays in my van, the other in my garage. The garahe one is the 'dirty' ones I use on the van

[pine stratus]

what is the difference between script kiddie and a pro ?

[glass nest]

Lost - attitude?

[opaque flax]

Probably like 2 or something

[finite basalt]

my dad has a 200pc halfords set with a lifetime guarantee which is nice, even if you lose one they'll replace it haha

[glass nest]

Aye, My dad went down the Bolt Blue road years ago with the same warranty 😄

[devout palm]

[finite basalt]

they don't sell that set anymore but the plastic hinges on the box broke and they don't make the box anymore so he fitted proper metal hinges and when he lost one they replaced it no bother

[pine stratus]

well for now thm taught me how to use tools but i understand how they works

[rapid merlin]

What a socket set

[lone thistle]

welp that's 160 mins I wish I could get back

[rapid merlin]

Mr robot ain’t on Netflix

[finite basalt]

I love those sorts of warranties

[finite basalt]

yeah I overheard how bad the game was haha

[pine stratus]

[cerulean nest]

i did an oopsie

[finite basalt]

trying to think if there's another name, they're kind of like spanners but not, and they usually have ratchetting functionality for undoing nuts and bolts

[cerulean nest]

full format of my 4tb hard drive

[finite basalt]

I need to setup the network share for my btrfs again

[glass nest]

Nothing a cheeky forensic scan can't fix :p

[finite basalt]

so I can transfer my music and documents to it

[cerulean nest]

bro why network share

python3 -m http.server

[boreal scarab]

Sorry, just got back home. I do not have a Phonk playlist, I got Yacht Rock

[cerulean nest]

if ur on windows, download one of those python interpreters or smth

[glass nest]

What about snake jazz?

[cerulean nest]

theres gotta be a way

[boreal scarab]

I don't even remember why I pinged ya XD

[cerulean nest]

net share and net use has gotta be one of the most useless windows features

[finite basalt]

I did that in uni, we were doing forensics on usbs and I deleted the wrong partition and lost my uni work (I had backups but not that weeks work) so I imaged it immediately and put the image on the USB, got my latest backup from my laptop and got the final files using either autopsy or encase haha

[boreal scarab]

Oh yah

[glass nest]

Usually 3D printing related?

[boreal scarab]

Noo

But may I DM?

[dark mason]

Today I studied for a geography test instead of a pentest. I am a disgrace fr fr

[glass nest]

Of course. You don't need to ask me, we cool

[finite basalt]

I achieved the goal of the lesson but outside a testing environment 🤣
