[gritty olive]

Thanks guyz

[limber wharf]

I'm new

We're all here to learn

[pallid lotus]

@glass nest Jesus Christ he's good with a chainsaw

[gritty olive]

Hopefully i will learn from you guys

[glass nest]

I feel both happy that you are enjoying it, but also sorry, as it's a loooong video 😄

[pallid lotus]

There goes my sleep (again) tonight

[glass nest]

But yeah, The guy is super accurate. It's insane

[blazing granite]

I didn't know that jesus had a chainsaw 😂

[pallid lotus]

Nah, that would be:

Jesus Christ: he's good with a chainsaw

[boreal scarab]

I have a solution! GFuel!

[pallid lotus]

Holy shit the glass panels on the roof

[rapid merlin]

Once it has nothing to do with ingression or network ports 👌

[gritty olive]

Anyone from UK?

[pallid lotus]

Most of us

[boreal scarab]

[glass nest]

It's when he uses the electric planer to bevel the wood. His thumb is so close to the blade!

[pallid lotus]

🤮

[gritty olive]

I don’t have a degree , can i get a job in cyber?

[pallid lotus]

Hey - no spoilers!

[blazing granite]

there are people from all over 🙂

[glass nest]

Sorry sorry 😄

[snow palm]

depends on which country you're in and which company you're applying to

[pallid lotus]

Awwwww. I was hoping he was going to do the whole roof in glass. Not such a fan of the corrugated metal

[gritty olive]

In UK

[devout palm]

Yes, just have enough skills and improve yourself (:

[pallid lotus]

I'd guess based on their prior message... probably UK

[snow palm]

i got invited to interviews in startups without a degree, so it's definitely possible

[glass nest]

Aye, I thought that too. Just wait until you see it finished. looks mint

[blazing granite]

if you have the knowledge you don't need a degree, maybe a few certs

[boreal scarab]

Not cherry? Damn

[snow palm]

oh, didn't notice that lmao

[gritty olive]

Is CCNA and CCNP helpful?

[snow palm]

this thread keeps getting flooded with messages

[gritty olive]

I have those

[snow palm]

deffo

[boreal scarab]

Welcome to General! That's normal

[blazing granite]

if you're going into networks yes

[pallid lotus]

It does look pretty good... but glass would have been stunning.
Then again, an entirely glass roof the house would fucking roast, and possibly go on fire lmao

[boreal scarab]

We also have #quiet-conversation

[snow palm]

i suggest shooting an application to vodafone

[pallid lotus]

Maybe this is the sensible design choice afterall

[blazing granite]

too quiet 😂

[glass nest]

And horrible to keep clean

[pallid lotus]

Also true

[gritty olive]

I want to work on Defense side

[gritty olive]

Sure, i will take a look

[glass nest]

Muiri - the guy is just so serene through the whole thing. I invent new curse words when I'm making a shelf 😄

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/shrek-shrek1-shrek-and-donkey-shrek-its-quiet-shrek-its-quiet-too-quiet-gif-26487755

[pallid lotus]

Yeah. Calm professional through and through... at least that we see on camera

[snow palm]

so basically to explain a little further:

i used to work for vodafone as an incident manager in the enterprise section. they pay quite well and CCNA is strongly needed there because vodafone mostly uses cisco routers. therefore i think you can theoretically start in second or third level support already and work your way into cyber incident response

[glass nest]

Also.. I don't ever see him looking at paper. Either he makes it up as he goes, of he has plans off-camera 😄

I'm assuming the former

[pallid lotus]

He's not actually measuring anything other than angles either

I reckon he's making it up as he goes along

[snow palm]

real man eyeball everything

[glass nest]

See what I mean about being oddly motivational?

[pallid lotus]

Aye

I'm learning some cool new tricks from this lmao

[boreal scarab]

They JUST enabled it after 11 years.......... fuck, FC4 came out 11 years ago

[snow palm]

btw anyone here who plays geoguessr ?

[boreal scarab]

And Skyrim came out 14 years ago

Shit, I feel old as crap

[glass nest]

We used to have live events with geogussr

[snow palm]

you mean THM?

or you in private?

[gritty olive]

I have no prior experience in IT

[pallid lotus]

14 years ago I was 9.
Now I work in a bank

[glass nest]

carter - in THM 🙂

[boreal scarab]

THAT MAKES ME FEEL OLDER!

[pallid lotus]

Pre-cisely

[snow palm]

interesting that you got a CCNA then. shouldn't really be a problem, it was my first IT job as well. maybe you're not going to start in third level then but they definitely search for people with cisco certification

[boreal scarab]

You weren't even born when 9/11 happened....

[snow palm]

that's amazing. never thought that THM has something to do with geo

[sand trench]

so you are a cobol dev????

[snow palm]

xDDDD

[pallid lotus]

Cloud certs are easier to get, and possibly even more valued in SOC these days

[blazing granite]

@boreal scarab 14 years ago I was way more than 9 if that make you feel better 😂

[lost birch]

hello people 🙂

[pallid lotus]

Yes, actually

[snow palm]

average fortran enjoyer

[boreal scarab]

You're already ancient lol

[pallid lotus]

I was

Just

[glass nest]

carter - Myself an muiri are chatting about a video of a guy doing woodwork and house restoration. We are a VERY diverse bunch here 😄

[sand trench]

nice now you have a job that has about a 420% retention rate meaning you can not get fired

[pallid lotus]

Oh, not professionally lmao

[gritty olive]

Lets keep in touch guys!, Good night

[pallid lotus]

I can code for mainframes though

[blazing granite]

Still I'm not the one that feels old 😛

[snow palm]

good night and good luck!

[lost birch]

goodnight !

[pallid lotus]

Also, how tf do you go above 100% retention rate?

[boreal scarab]

So, you're a late 2001 baby

[sand trench]

cobol

[pallid lotus]

Anything higher and your employees would need to be fucking multiplying asexually

[lost birch]

I think that defeats the point of 100%

[gritty olive]

Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @snow palm (current: #639 - 8)

[snow palm]

the cherry on the top would be if someone came out and told me he played as much rollercoaster tycoon as i did back in my youth

[pallid lotus]

In some contexts it makes sense to have more than 100 parts in 100

But not in this context

[glass nest]

Hah! Back in my day it was SimCity 2000 and Theme Park 😄

[boreal scarab]

Back in my day, it was Pajama Sam

[sand trench]

https://toggl.com/blog/build-horse-programming

[glass nest]

It's still 'your day' kiddo

[snow palm]

that's very retro 😄 i grew up with RCT3 and was so used to it that i couldn't handle the isometric perspective 😄

[blazing granite]

simcity without the 2000, civilization and carmen san diego 🙂

[pallid lotus]

The internet was a thing back in your day?

[glass nest]

Command and Conqour: Red Alert. Yuri was a beast

[boreal scarab]

Oh yah! On the good ol Windows ME!

[snow palm]

windows XP was still hands down the best

after that microsoft fell off

[pallid lotus]

@glass nest Oh My God his Brickwork

[lost birch]

I think XP looks so clean, but I liked windows 10

Maybe that's because I grew up using it so I'm biased

[boreal scarab]

How can you say no to this face?

[pallid lotus]

I mean, for everything other than security

[lost birch]

But who caress its my opinion

[snow palm]

really? i hate it

[lost birch]

Cortana was annoying though

[glass nest]

I KNOW!! Just a simple thing, but makes the wall more secure and looks awesome

[snow palm]

i want to search for a program or a file on my pc and it opens up bing after a spelling error

it's horrible

[blazing granite]

XP was decent only after SP3

[snow palm]

yeah at least you can deactivate that

[snow palm]

what do you mean?

[lost birch]

What is SP3?

[pallid lotus]

I think I still have an XP laptop floating around somewhere

[snow palm]

from a cyber security perspective or simply user friendliness?

[pallid lotus]

Service Pack 3
Basically a big feature update

[snow palm]

don't connect it to the internet lmao

[pallid lotus]

Oh God no

That said, you'd be surprised at how much critical infrastructure still runs on XP / 95

Not my work thank fuck lmao

Well, current work anyway

[blazing granite]

I guess you're not from that era 😂 Service Pack, like that microsoft used to called the important updates

[snow palm]

but what do you mean with decent

[blazing granite]

95????? are you having a laugh?

[pallid lotus]

I wish

I've tested industrial control systems running software which hasn't been updated since the 80s

[boreal scarab]

I know of a business, thank god it's not connected to the internet, that uses 95 for a labeling machine

[blazing granite]

before sp3 was kind of a mess, updates to fix the new issues what the last update caused

[pallid lotus]

Okay wtf @glass nest

[snow palm]

like GUI bugs and shit like that?

[glass nest]

For me it was the ad-hoc scaffold on the back wall. screwed into the trees.

[pallid lotus]

That is a hell of an angle to just be casually floating on a ladder

[pallid lotus]

Right??

[blazing granite]

no, like real bugs and security issues

[pallid lotus]

Bastard for the poor trees though 😦

[snow palm]

i see

[glass nest]

Eh, the tree will heal that in a couple of weeks

[snow palm]

45 degrees is still doable tho

[blazing granite]

xp got a bit more stable after sp3

[pallid lotus]

Oooft. I'm not a fan of filing away the marker in the stone either

[finite basalt]

I've a satellite l10-333 on top of my server currently, that has an IDE 2.5" drive in it and 1gb of DDR RAM haha, upgraded that from 256mb

[snow palm]

depending on which bottom surface the ladder is hooked inot

into

[finite basalt]

that ladder placement is seriously stressing me out

[glass nest]

Yeah, me neither. I cringed at that a bit

[snow palm]

dirt no problem, smooth floors more problematic

[pallid lotus]

I've got a worse one from when I put up a blind on the window half way up my staircase. Let's just say it involved a step ladder and a skirting board

[pallid lotus]

@naive violet can attest

[blazing granite]

I had a xt with a CPU nec v20 1mb of ram and a hd of 32mb 🙂

[grizzled wing]

laptop identified

[blazing granite]

🥦

[finite basalt]

I used a windows 95 laptop that only had windows 95 on it and dial up haha

[grizzled wing]

🦖

[finite basalt]

OSHA certified 😭

[blazing granite]

the famous project chicago, I remember all the fuss and the hope

[finite basalt]

I've seen a ladder with one foot in the air, my dad at the top of the ladder (2 stories up) and my foot at the bottom to keep it stable

[glass nest]

@pallid lotus I actually looked into it. There are waaaay too many legal loopholes to do aomething like this in the UK

Less in the highlands, actually

[finite basalt]

if they're on soft dirt with both feet planted in I'm happy, otherwise, hate them

[pallid lotus]

Doesn't surprise me. There are a tonne of old derelict croft houses in the highlands

Okay how tf did he get the cement mixer up there

[finite basalt]

magic

rope and pulley system maybe

[glass nest]

The guy is stacked.

[pallid lotus]

Quad bike more like

[finite basalt]

🤣

[snow palm]

military training makes everything possible

[glass nest]

plus he has another video showing how he got some giant beams up top 😄

[finite basalt]

where there's a will there's a way

[glass nest]

to be fair, the guy is stacked.

[pallid lotus]

1. Who says he's military?
2. I'll happily dare a soldier to flap their arms and fly...

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/beam-me-up-scotty-gif-23354526

[snow palm]

well from my experience, only military guys actually run around in military outfits

[pallid lotus]

You've not been to America then

[finite basalt]

I mean me and my dad moved a ton worth of concrete slabs, each slab weighing about 100kg in 4 hours on pure will power, none of us are built so I imagine if you've the willpower and the muscle anything's possible 🤣

[pallid lotus]

Having said which, if nothing else screams military... this does

[snow palm]

i haven't - i'm half american but the last time i went there i was 6. are so many non soldiers running around in military gear?

[glass nest]

Yes! that wall-cement technique is a thing of beauty 😄

[snow palm]

here in germany it's illegal as far as i know

[finite basalt]

stood at attention even while working

[pallid lotus]

Search up "tacticool"

[snow palm]

the game????

[pallid lotus]

Tf?

No. The idiots running around dressed like soldiers

[snow palm]

i only see a shitload of games there

wait

[heady parrot]

Guys is it to much to ask i wanna go to usa own a rifle have loyal gf lambo with nice kids dogs and help out every people 🙃 ngl it is my dream good one innit

[glass nest]

Well, They guy with the lambo is more proud of his 7 bookcases.

[pallid lotus]

I mean, suit yourself, but sounds like hell to me

[heady parrot]

Bro i want it idk why

[snow palm]

"america is a nice place until your balls start to feel funny and you're sweating out all the chemicals in it" -Niko Bellic

[heady parrot]

Ngl probably better than UK

[pallid lotus]

... Really?

[heady parrot]

Well some parts at least

[pallid lotus]

UK ain't great... but really?

[heady parrot]

Bro i wanna get license for gun when i can buy gun

[pallid lotus]

No, you really don't

@glass nest the random gardening break lmfao

[snow palm]

lmao i found some wiki about it. so basically posers

[heady parrot]

Bro think about it free 5000 square garden

[glass nest]

Theres method to the madness, Muiri

[pallid lotus]

Oh I'll bet

It's just funny

[snow palm]

possible, i don't know about the situation in the UK. is the fish and chips so rotten there?

[pallid lotus]

Eh?

[opaque flax]

It’s called LARPING and we love it here in the US

[heady parrot]

I can have my own shooting area like some youtubers

[glass nest]

other than the guy Muiri is watching, please don't base your life on a youtuber

[pallid lotus]

Bit of a difference between LARPING and actually believing you're some kinda elite soldier... despite never having served.
Then again, for the purposes of the point I was making, it's the same result

[pallid lotus]

Again, why would you want that?

[snow palm]

as far as i know you have to be an american to buy a gun. i don't know how easy it is to get an american passport unless you want to marry an american woman, which i advise you not to

[heady parrot]

Yea idk life can make suprises

[pallid lotus]

Guns are not toys. They're not cool. They're not something you should want to carry.

Their sole purpose is to take lives. That is not an admirable goal to have.

[heady parrot]

Not for carry

[opaque flax]

Trueeee

I haven’t been to range in forever

My guns are stashed away

Only really had them from when I carried them

[pallid lotus]

Then what's the point in having them 🤷‍♂️

[heady parrot]

Shooting in my property

[blazing granite]

or live in a country where you can buy a gun, but yes, you have to be a citizen of that country

[pallid lotus]

Why?

[snow palm]

yes and no. olympic shooters usually haven't killed anyone

[pallid lotus]

Shooting what?

[snow palm]

not sure about that turkish Yusuf Dikec guy but having and shooting guns onto targets is an understandable hobby

[heady parrot]

Bro ur not a fan of gun thats for sure

I watch countless shooting videos

[pallid lotus]

At the end of the day a gun is a gun. They're using them for sport, yes, but sport is just a facsimile of the real thing. It's a way of saying "look how easily I could kill someone based on how accurate I am"

[heady parrot]

They all seems pretty good plus it is not all about for protection it is hobby

[pallid lotus]

Do you know why Britain banned them?

[snow palm]

now the question is as well whether you consider animals as people

[pallid lotus]

Well, except for pest control

[heady parrot]

To much violence probably

[snow palm]

you also take lives technically as a hunter, but not that of humans

[pallid lotus]

Because someone walked into a school and shot a bunch of children.
At which point the British public turned around and said enough is enough.

[glass nest]

Muiri has a point. most, if not all, hand weapons have their roots in some sort of tool. Knife, Hammer etc. Guns are made only to kill.

[heady parrot]

Anyway it is not just ridle or anything i wanna marry good women plus have agood life get a green lambo

[pallid lotus]

That is what happens when you fantasize over guns. That is why America is desensitised to their children getting shot.

It's not a game.

It's not something to like, or want to emulate.

[sick lance]

Can we avoid gun talk please.

[snow palm]

let me give you a life lesson mate: if you want to find a good woman, america is the hardest place to go to

[heady parrot]

Well obviously people shouldn’t able to obtain easily thats the problem

[pallid lotus]

So why, exactly, do you want them?

Why, exactly, should you have them?

What makes you an exception to the rule?

[glass nest]

Muiri - the Doggo is like... just chilling the whole time 😄

[heady parrot]

Well mate all the countrys are same there is no difference in countries it is about the person u end up

[pallid lotus]

That's a doggo for ya 😆

[snow palm]

that's a too simplistic way to look at it. culture, history and politics influence the morals and values of people a lot

[pallid lotus]

Also, as a side note, he's Turkish special forces. He literally is trained to shoot people. It's his job

[heady parrot]

Just watch this

[sick lance]

No

Drop the topic

[snow palm]

rofl

[pallid lotus]

@glass nest is that underlay or canvas tarp he's putting down on the stone?

[heady parrot]

Well depends as long as ur not going anywhere people sont have access to internet all the countries basically same in these days

[pallid lotus]

Guessing probably a waterproof tarp

Looks much stiffer though

[mossy river]

booooooooooo

https://tenor.com/view/shame-bell-game-of-thrones-walk-of-atonement-cersei-lannister-gif-16635977892557113898

Yeah, you can usually see that membrane at the bottom of some houses sticking out.

to prevent damp. Does look pretty thick

not really. i am hungarian and i can assure you german and hungarian women are very, very different

most german women are completely obnoxious

[pallid lotus]

Yeah. Foundation DPM presumably

[heady parrot]

Well no

[pallid lotus]

Charming

[glass nest]

He says, after googling 😄

[mossy river]

This conversation is not at all appropriate^^

[pallid lotus]

No lmao

Am just guessing while watching the video

[glass nest]

Fair fair 😄

[sick lance]

I already asked to drop the subject

[mossy river]

Feel free to leave your comments about women at the door. This is an infosec Discord server.

[heady parrot]

Depends who u endup talking to i would say 90 percent of women u endup talking with mostly going to be realy the words that i shouldnt use it

[glass nest]

But look how he goes from roofing, to stonework, to landscaping, to flooring...

[snow palm]

oh i thought it was about the guns

[grim sparrow]

:mute: damnoway#0 has been muted.

[pallid lotus]

Absolute nutter with the blowtorch though

[grim sparrow]

[MUTE] I cannot DM that user.

[pallid lotus]

He's almost had his foot a bunch of times

[snow palm]

well, tastes differ i guess

[pallid lotus]

You thought it was about the guns immediately after making a comment that was somehow both sexist and racist...?

[glass nest]

Muiri - Although I love the idea of off-grid living, I never bought into the whole 'Tiny Home' thing.

[pallid lotus]

Oh Lord no. Could not survive in a tiny home

Give me a nice, solar powered, renewable smart home in the middle of nowhere though. Bliss

[glass nest]

Hey, It's doable up where you are

[snow palm]

yes. it's not only the majority of american women that are stupid, also the majority of american males. i'm sorry but that's just the way of life. and it's kind of ironic to see that as racist considering the fact that i'm of american descent myself as well

[pallid lotus]

🤦‍♂️

[mossy river]

Doesn't matter who you are, a racist comment is still a racist comment.

[glass nest]

Theres another channel 'livinginkevlar', a vanlife couple who bought some highland land. It's an interesting journey which they are still on

[pallid lotus]

Eh, potentially

[grim sparrow]

:mute: cartermachiavelli#0 has been muted.

[pallid lotus]

... that was a mute?

[glass nest]

It's more about the laws and bylaws of putting property on land, y'know? It's pretty conveluted in England, but from what I can see, less so in the Great White Norf

[pallid lotus]

Yeah. Right to roam

Holy shit the leveling process for this concrete on the floor. It's so exact

[blazing granite]

wow! what's going on today,

[glass nest]

I think the guy might be a robot.

[pallid lotus]

The concrete in my lovely new build isn't that good lmao

[sick lance]

Let's not, I asked for guns to be dropped and it wasn't.

[pallid lotus]

This is the face of a man who knows he's done a good job but just realised he's blocked himself out of the building for the forseeable future

[glass nest]

Dunno if you noticed, but a lot of the wooden stuff.. he's not drilling pilot holes either

Hehe

[pallid lotus]

Nope, straight in

[glass nest]

I think the construction kept me interested, but the nature sounds kept me hypnotised

[pallid lotus]

Si

No background music. No time lapse. Just a guy out in nature building a house

[glass nest]

No talking either. Just a guy with his doggo

[pallid lotus]

The way it should be

[glass nest]

Zactly

[pallid lotus]

Oh yikes I see what you mean about the planer lmfao

[glass nest]

I'll admit, that caused some bum-clenching 😄

[pallid lotus]

The ease with which he's thrown this together

No dimensions. No measurements

And it actually looks reasonably stable

[glass nest]

Yeah. Need a sawhorse. Huh. i'll just make one.

[pallid lotus]

... and then he bloody duplicates it

Precisely

FFS

[glass nest]

And... you're only an hour into the video 😄

[pallid lotus]

I still have work to do tonight lmfao

[glass nest]

this is what the kids would call a 'sorrynotsorry'

[pallid lotus]

Just casually throws some chipboard eaves in. Why not

Doggo is such a good girl

[glass nest]

I wonder how he moved that massive cider-press thing

[pallid lotus]

Spoilers!

[glass nest]

Oh, it's already gone at your point

[pallid lotus]

Wait, what?

[glass nest]

I think..

[pallid lotus]

Which cider press thing

[glass nest]

Wasnt it in the main house?

[pallid lotus]

The old stone stove?

[glass nest]

The giant boulder with a screw on it

[pallid lotus]

Eh?

Think that's the basement. Hasn't done that yet

Wine cellar. Whatever it is

Is it just me or is that chipboard gonna rot

No way he's just leaving that uncovered, right?

[glass nest]

main part of the house

[pallid lotus]

Oh that

Lord knows

[glass nest]

probably one-handed, over his shoulder 😄

[pallid lotus]

Casually clubbing the local bridge troll to death with it as he walks past

[glass nest]

I'd imagine you'd get some treated OSB for the outdoor stuff? I dunno

but then he's cutting it....

[pallid lotus]

Sealing the edges though tbf

[glass nest]

true true

[pallid lotus]

A scarier sight you never did see

[glass nest]

And through ALL this, he still has time to set up shots with the cameras 😄

[pallid lotus]

...

I stand corrected

[sand trench]

welp shadow has nothing to do right now other then sleep so sleep sloop to the beep boop while meep moop they will

[glass nest]

Pure faith in those sawhorses

[pallid lotus]

Nah, he knows they wouldn't dare break

[glass nest]

Haha

Apparently the whole video is over the timespan of a year. Must have been so many back and forth trips moving all that rubbish out

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/sleepy-cat-cute-kitten-good-night-my-love-gif-7552037261622151270

[glass nest]

the guy has a niche, and is killing it.

[pallid lotus]

Tf does he do with all these rennovated properties

Must be flipping them

[glass nest]

True, There are start-to-finishes there aswell. from a patch of dirt to a log cabin

And a smurf house, looks like.

[pallid lotus]

Loving the water barrel from the gutters

Just casually "in the meantime I used a tractor to bring lumber from the local sawmill"

Lmfao

How on earth is he keeping his power tools so clean as well

[glass nest]

Looking at his videos, looks like he returns to his builds a couple of years later. So, not flipping them. Just building for the sake of building.

[pallid lotus]

Good grief

i have astigmatism

i dont see well at night cause of all the light

[lone thistle]

Jabba 🫶

[upper knoll]

that was an ouch

[pallid lotus]

Closer to 500?

[upper knoll]

340

[pallid lotus]

Not sooooo bad, but still a yikes

[upper knoll]

i live on 800 or less a month

[pallid lotus]

And yeah, astigmatism ain't fun. Especially driving at night... especially with LED headlights coming at ya

[upper knoll]

if i got more than one pair it would have been 500 yer

and yer those god damn leds i dont see the cars

i see the light

[lone thistle]

LEDs on cars at night are blinding especially as of the last few years

[mossy river]

It took optometrists more than 10 years to realise I had astigmatism

[upper knoll]

i just kept telling them

[sick lance]

They're only getting worse too.

[upper knoll]

i see lines from all the lights

until they got the idea

[lone thistle]

Is Astigmatism that one where lights look blurry?

[mossy river]

Stretched

[lone thistle]

or you see like a tracer of them

[mossy river]

yee

[upper knoll]

second one

[pallid lotus]

More like they radiate

[untold sentinel]

i live 0 a month

[mossy river]

https://tenor.com/view/views-highway-chill-lights-sparkling-gif-17273134

[pallid lotus]

That

[upper knoll]

oh jabba u show my world in a gif

[untold sentinel]

and u cant look at close objects

[pallid lotus]

Although I'll tell you now... that looks positively normal to me

[upper knoll]

my close vision is fine

[pallid lotus]

That's being long sighted

[upper knoll]

^

im short sighted woop woop

[boreal scarab]

Especially at night time driving with all the cars headlights blinding you too

[upper knoll]

yer it gives me headaches if i go out too much at night

my eyes cant swap focus from long to short basically at all and its giving me at least one kind of headache

[mossy river]

I swear people who aren't short sighted really don't understand the struggle sometimes 😂
My partner loves to ask me questions and show me things when I don't have my glasses on

"Look at this" ahhh, yeah that's so great omg

[upper knoll]

they were showing me letters

im like

those are dots bruh

[lone thistle]

THis really reminds me to get my eyes tested

[pallid lotus]

Maybe they're trying to tell you to wear your glasses

[mossy river]

And then they have the A U D A C I T Y to say "wow you really can't see far"

[upper knoll]

xd

how dare u be blind jabba

[mossy river]

I swear we get into bed and she shows me tiktoks but holds her arm as far away like it's a selfie stick

[blazing granite]

with one eye I can't see from with the other I can't see from near that's fun 😂

[pallid lotus]

Oh wow @glass nest... the upstairs floor

[upper knoll]

i had that growing up

[pallid lotus]

That is stunning. That is how a floor should be

Counterbored screws too

[upper knoll]

also jabba did i see someone tried to kick your door in btw?

[mossy river]

Yuh

[glass nest]

even more impressive cos we saw it being built

[upper knoll]

tf

[mossy river]

Well.. tried.. succeeded what's the difference

[pallid lotus]

A broken door

[upper knoll]

one is more your house is now open than the other?

[pallid lotus]

And possibly some broken bones

[mossy river]

Door was fine, lock was in shambles

[lone thistle]

burr when you're back - did you see the pens?

[mossy river]

Awkward text to the landlord

Hey xoxo, I think someone's bashed the door in lol

[upper knoll]

bet that went over well

[lone thistle]

[mossy river]

He came over today and fixed it no questions asked

[upper knoll]

oh damn fire landlord

[mossy river]

fr

[pallid lotus]

Nice landlord... but this is why I'm glad I own my house

[upper knoll]

last time i had one they made me scrub the inside of the oven "cause its not clean enough"

[grizzled wing]

i though t you had to have a membership to do any searches on shodan

[mossy river]

Honestly if I could afford to pay for all 6 rooms I'd live here after Uni, he's a legend

[mossy river]

He deadass will come over and do this if we ask

[upper knoll]

bruh mine came over and made me do it

[mossy river]

LMAO

"You've missed a spot"

[upper knoll]

and we had to do the garden for them

all year round

she actually said that once

[lone thistle]

@mossy river rate the throwback https://open.spotify.com/track/6JY1IdkZGeIcPegKxjSKeb?si=61b089711d1d4fd7

[pallid lotus]

Just casually crowbarring a beam into place

[karmic hemlock]

Is the $375 for the aws course worth

[mossy river]

This is such a shower song

[blazing granite]

which one?

[lone thistle]

damn right it is (@ jabba + the aws course worth)

[glass nest]

It's the litle things and workarounds

[pallid lotus]

He finally drilled a pilot hole

[mossy river]

we running it up, roommates are gonna have to suffer 🎵

[karmic hemlock]

The one on THM

[blazing granite]

I haven't done it, but looks great

[karmic hemlock]

I'm thinking about it because I believe my primary goal is to become a security engineer

[upper knoll]

icl no clue what ill end up but i do lie awake at night and im like i wonder if this is an exploit

[mossy river]

I do CTFs in my dreams when I sleep

deadass

[upper knoll]

i came up with an idea for a social engineered malware in my sleep

[mossy river]

I've even written code in my sleep that has fixed problems I've had

[pallid lotus]

Oh God -- charring then oiling @glass nest. That is a gorgeous effect

[lone thistle]

The presumes that you actually get the chance to sleep

[upper knoll]

i mean yes what is sleep

[glass nest]

Yah, the attention to making the new wood to match the old is a nice touch

[mossy river]

Maybe I'm not sleeping, maybe I'm awake doing it and I have just lied to myself about sleeping

[pallid lotus]

WHY AM I STILL WATCHING THIS LMFAO

[mossy river]

Assignment submission on Wednesday, wish me luck besties

[lone thistle]

Stranger things have happened

[upper knoll]

u dont need luck u gonna kick ass

but luck anyways

[mossy river]

It's the write-up post Malware analysis and icl I'm so bored

[upper knoll]

what malware?

if u can talk about it

[mossy river]

Analysing the malware was actually more fun than I thought

[upper knoll]

i love talking about that stuff ask ben we discuss all sorts

[mossy river]

I can't 🥲

[upper knoll]

sadge

[mossy river]

Academic integrity so sad.

[upper knoll]

ooof

imagine having integrity

how dare u

[blazing granite]

https://tenor.com/view/good-juju-gif-16922911951109702032

[upper knoll]

[mossy river]

For real

I really want to talk about it too, I did something really cool 😔

[upper knoll]

every so often i wonder if what im doing is what others do and i realise i do things differently

[sick lance]

Blue team!

[upper knoll]

but i have to imagine it was cool jabba

[sick lance]

I'm revising for Malware exam now

[lone thistle]

I can't remember, did you transfer class by the time we got to Malware analysis at UOG?

[upper knoll]

yer

sadly

[mossy river]

I overheard some people talking and they definitely did things differently

[lone thistle]

ah. for some reason I remember you there but my memory must be wrong

[upper knoll]

u gave me a lot of resources

i was still uni at that point

[lone thistle]

Im still salty about the assignment but hey ho

[upper knoll]

its one of those things i always enjoyed learning about

yer UOG was a mess

[lone thistle]

🫠

[upper knoll]

i will always remember stew fondly though

his classes were always the more fun ones

[lone thistle]

Oh yeah Stew was awesome. Done a lot more talking than teaching though. I can't remember if he transferred to UWE like the others did

[upper knoll]

maybe and yer i found he was the most relitable and willing to help compared to the others

but he was a chatter box

[lone thistle]

yeah, he'd at least have a convo with you/anyone 😄

[upper knoll]

yer i couldnt do that with whoever tried to teach networking

was like talking to a damn wall

you have taught me that at this point icl

[lone thistle]

Ohhh yeah

he was my lecturer for networking at my Msc

the CCNA classes we done were the highest I scored on anything other than my diss

but y'know at that point I'd done networking for a job for like 3 years and well I just like it so

always helps innit

subnetting with you and Culhane, and packet tracer 😄

[upper knoll]

yer i came from a interestingly taught comp science a level and that was my only tech background back then

ugh

packet tracer

it still haunts my dreams

[lone thistle]

🫶 packet tracer

[upper knoll]

im sure its not as bad as they made it feel

[lone thistle]

I think my assessment for that in the end was about 160 pages

[upper knoll]

believe that tbh

[lone thistle]

it's good. Just unfortunate that the classes were very boring (I mean teaching networking in a fun way is hard but it was something else) and then just making you figure out some obsecure thing with packet tracer or the Cisco CLI

[upper knoll]

yerrrr

i didnt do so well with that one of the reasons i transfered

[lone thistle]

you reallllllllllly gotta like it to like it

[upper knoll]

these days id be far more open to it

with my knowledge base back then it was toooooo much

i didnt understand basic networking well enough id say

[lone thistle]

I actually still have all the drawings and pages we made dividing subnets in those classes in a notebook in a box crazy. Doesn't feel like 6 years ago AT ALL

[upper knoll]

ikr lad

[lone thistle]

I think part of that is due to the fact that 75% of my lecturers @ UWE were who we had at UOG

Dr. Win

what a mad lad

[upper knoll]

ah yes

dr win

[lone thistle]

super cool guy

Sorry, y'all, kinda took over #general just reminising 😅

[upper knoll]

[glass nest]

@pallid lotus Only JUST realised - this guys videos have subtitles.

[agile ridge]

ive been here for like 3 years now and i still havent learnt how to hack

[glass nest]

Well.. the resources are there

[agile ridge]

i should ong live up to 16 year old me's dreams

[upper knoll]

"learning to hack" is a very braud

i cant spell

it depends what u want to learn to ethically test

[glass nest]

to ethically pwn n00bs?

[blazing granite]

what you have done and how much have you studied or practiced in the 3 year you've been here?

[agile ridge]

i gotta be honest i joined, made some screen scraper lard of crap, and decided to just do programming instead

[blazing granite]

that's your answer right there 🙂

[agile ridge]

im sure ill make a start on it later

but then again i said 3 years ago

[blazing granite]

whenever you decide to start, the resources will be here waiting for you 🙂

@lone thistle Please tell me you know this song https://open.spotify.com/track/0j55p8YRAPG8yajtNyjt6A?si=77305807793f4a07

[lone thistle]

i've heard it but I didn't know that is what it was called/sung by

[mossy river]

these were from my childhood

makes me want to go out to a club

[lone thistle]

Love a bit of dancehall-ish

bottom floor moos in cheltenham✊

I think ShyFx sampled that song which is where I recognise it from

ahhh yess yup https://youtu.be/BboBncMCpws?si=AxZOiDhEFl50rO_h

[dark frost]

good night

[mossy river]

Been to Glos like 8 times in the past 6 months and not once heard of this 😭

[earnest beacon]

i'd love if the attackbox sidebar could also be a detachable browser tab

[mossy river]

Yesss Yesss, I've heard this, straight fire

[dark frost]

didn't do any room in a week 😢 , busy at my work , teaching is exausting and lot of work home

[lone thistle]

Glos is the city 😄 don't tell me you've been to ATIK there LOL

Moos is the place for students in chelt

[mossy river]

I haven't been properly out in glocester or chelt

[earnest beacon]

dancehall is so good! a taste

[mossy river]

girlfriend isn't really a fan of partying so I only do that up here

[lone thistle]

it's dead

[mossy river]

maybe it's good I haven't then 😂

Honestly the clubs and stuff up here in Cov/ Leam are pretty good

[lone thistle]

😄 I've heard good stuff about Cov

[mossy river]

Sometimes I miss going out all the time but then I'm like the day after

[lone thistle]

tbh my clubbing days are looooooong over

got it all out of my system way back then

pub & a pint 🤝

[mossy river]

I did it from 18-20 and honestly I went hard
I'm a social drinker now

[lone thistle]

I still go to raves and stuff but that's like a quarterly thing at most ... the back pain lasts two days

[mossy river]

Ahahahah

[lone thistle]

26 this year

[mossy river]

I'm going Portugal this year, I want to go clubbing so bad

[lone thistle]

treat myself to an early night on a saturday sometimes

[lone thistle]

well, at least you didn't say Ibiza 🤣

[mossy river]

Honestly I do this and I hate it.
Complete all my assignments + Work and then treat myself to an early night. No staying up gaming

[wary ocean]

yalll out here being social meanwhile im having arguments with npcs in video games 😭 😂

[glass nest]

Or aiya napa

[mossy river]

That's too British for me

[blazing granite]

I did, love parade, Ibiza, Aya Napa, Burning man, etc. I can´t do it anymore

[mossy river]

Going out to clubs and parties all the time helped me get over social anxiety

not even drinking, literally just going out

[flint sluice]

And drinking.

[upper knoll]

same lad its scary eh

[mossy river]

Varg, you didn't get calls from me because I was sober

[lone thistle]

I did Ibiza for 5 days when I was 20 odd. Even then I think it was like a two week recovery period

[wary ocean]

theres no where in my town to do that 😭

[flint sluice]

Oh I'm aware

Dead to rights, jbasba

[mossy river]

It's cause you were always on my mind Mr Varg

[flint sluice]

Surely not.

[lone thistle]

Now it's raves and festivals but I spend 95% of time @ festivals working, and the off-time you have to be a good boy

That's enough partying for me these days 😄

[flint sluice]

But it was hilarious regardless :D

[mossy river]

Hehehe

[lone thistle]

as if it's varg here

[mossy river]

I can't believe I called Cake one of the nights

[lone thistle]

of all places

g'ad damn

[blazing granite]

I did it until I was 26, and quit 😂

[flint sluice]

I need to ask him if he remembers. I don't think I am aware of that one.

[flint sluice]

It's totally because I saw you and the baba having a chin wag.

[lone thistle]

😄 I have definitely felt my "camping requirements" at festivals increase over the last few years....

It’s a very bad tool

[flint sluice]

Kali Linux?

Oh a tool? Yeah, new to me.

[mossy river]

I couldn't find any tools called Kalinus 🤔

[boreal scarab]

Here's your 5 Year Old prompt (Again, using AI)

While going over this assignment again, I've had sudden revelations

[upper knoll]

xd

glglglgl

[steep kestrel]

Okay

[mossy river]

Not gl 😭 so tired

[upper knoll]

caffeine time!

[steep kestrel]

Care to share with us mate?

[flint sluice]

Only better duo is shower thoughts and procrastination.

[lone thistle]

[flint sluice]

That ending though, cl0cc.

Just sayin'.

[blazing granite]

everytime is caffeine time 😂

[lone thistle]

as we say here

pucker

[upper knoll]

no sleepy time is not caffeine time

[mossy river]

I can't go into details just yet, I have to wait until the assignment is cleared by my University 😅

[jade wing]

Sleepy time doesn’t exist only exhaustion time

[flint sluice]

3:06 prepare for that little over-handed slamma

[blazing granite]

I drink an espresso and I go to bed 🙂

[boreal scarab]

Coffee time is all the time

https://tenor.com/view/coffee-coffee-time-gif-13351628760258118834

[flint sluice]

The l0rd invented decaf for a reason.

[boreal scarab]

Nah, if you're having coffee, you gotta have caffeine. Why would you have coffee not for the caffeine? For the taste? Most likely, people put in creamer and sugar anyways, they're not tasting the coffee

[flint sluice]

People may only like the subtle bitterness that comes from excess sugar or fat being added to it.

But it's a balancing act for what you like.

[jolly aspen]

decaf still has caffeine

[jade wing]

It all burns a hole in my stomach the same I can’t drink coffee nowadays

[flint sluice]

I like the warmth of the earthy flavours but it's way too bitter for me so I love milk and honey in mine.

Or maple if I want more depth to the earthiness without ruining it.

[jade wing]

Like the smallest of amounts yea

[boreal scarab]

Decaf, De-Caffeinated

[blazing granite]

yes for people who want to punish theirself and have no taste and decency 😂

[jolly aspen]

balance, not everyone needs a blast of cadiac arrest

[jade wing]

Might want to look up the process they use to make it decaf it still has caffeine

It’s just a very small amount

[flint sluice]

No idea what decaf you're drinkin' but never had any problems with it.

[jolly aspen]

misnomer, mis-nomer

[flint sluice]

Tastes exactly the same.

[jade wing]

Also the process to make decaf is gross

[boreal scarab]

Tea? Energy drinks? (Jabba, don't hurt me )

[jolly aspen]

there are many ways

[jade wing]

No energy drinks, same issues, tea on occasions

[flint sluice]

The process to produce meat in supermarkets is gross too. Doesn't change the delcious steak.

[mossy river]

I've had an ungodly amount of energy drinks in the past week, I can't talk

[steep kestrel]

There are

[jade wing]

No it doesn’t but the process of making it decaf does

It definitely tastes different

[boreal scarab]

I'm a coffee nut, And I have yet to see how they make decaf... damn

[blazing granite]

Have you ever been to Argentina?

[jolly aspen]

this mud water tastes like other mud water...suspicious

[boreal scarab]

You just put a hyphen there

[flint sluice]

They all taste different but they all taste like coffee.

That's my point.

[jolly aspen]

oh...misnomer, mis-namesdontalwaysrevealtruth

[flint sluice]

Never

'Coffee culture' here is insane.

Annoying, even.

[boreal scarab]

Nah, you have to know how to make coffee, you can taste the difference if it's properly brewed.
You can make coffee taste naturally sweet by the way you process the bean, type of bean, region, all that stuff

[jade wing]

Agreed

[jolly aspen]

Praise the bean, thine holy spirit, in body and blood

[jade wing]

It’s not all mud water that tastes like mud water

Anymore than all water tastes the same

[blazing granite]

So you never had a great steak then 😉 best meat in the world

[flint sluice]

I've eaten at authentic Argentinian restaurants before.

Closest I've come.

[viscid sonnet]

[flint sluice]

Entire walls of wine etc.

[jolly aspen]

[blazing granite]

I wanted to go to NY and I got lost 😉 😛

[boreal scarab]

I'm so sorry

[jade wing]

It is not a great place, New York is awesome though

[flint sluice]

I'll never get over the garbage piled high in that city.

Absolute eye opener.

[boreal scarab]

Once you understand the streets and aves, it's easy to walk around... now you gow LOW manhattan, good luck. Outside of Manhattan, I have no idea

[karmic hemlock]

Binary! You made it to 0xB!

[blazing granite]

I lived almost 2 years on the upper east side 🙂

[boreal scarab]

Said no one ever

[jade wing]

You haven’t lived life until you see someone running down the street and squat between two cars and drop a deuce in front of you then run away while the guy next to you is eating a pizza and goes “ayyyy yooooo did that lady just shit?!” Then walk away casually eating his pizza (this is a real story)

[boreal scarab]

Welcome to America!

[jolly aspen]

[boreal scarab]

I'm so sorry

[flint sluice]

The Halal trucks are AMAZING. Either went there or the deli for lunch.

[flint sluice]

So many food options.

It's so cool.

Only thing we have similar is Melbourne.

They go mental for cafes, food trucks, etc.

[jolly aspen]

Fahgetaboutit

[split compass]

I didn't go far in NYC.
Just from hotel penn down through hell's kitchen and back.
If I had gone back in 2018 I would've gone further.

[boreal scarab]

Oh yah, all within walking distance too, I barely had to leave the office building surrounding area

[jade wing]

Until it’s night time then it’s run down food trucks that make you sick 50% of the time or a bodega

I hated that aspect

[flint sluice]

Ay, I had a hotdog from a street cart on Times Square.

I'll be aight.

[jolly aspen]

now you understand why one would shit in the street

[boreal scarab]

Hell's Kitchen? Never been down that far... or up? Where the fuck is that

[jolly aspen]

its expected

[jade wing]

I had the chance to relocate there and I was like nah I’m good I’ve been there enough to know I wouldn’t want to be there permanently

[flint sluice]

Fun to visit, never to stay.

Older I get, the more I want the mountains and quiet.

[boreal scarab]

[jade wing]

This is my motto for Vegas I lived there a very large portion of my life

I don’t recommend

[flint sluice]

Yeah, Im with you on that.

[jade wing]

Yet I still miss it from time to time

[flint sluice]

Love visiting.

I was missing it last night.

The freedom.

[boreal scarab]

Hey, don't be hating on the bodega's, they have fucking fantastic food

[jade wing]

Same, this is the phase of life I’m in now

[flint sluice]

Can't sleep? Head straight down to the lobby and go for a walk, never know what the heck you will find.

[split compass]

Really only a few blocks walk from Hotel Penn. Part of Manhattan.

[jade wing]

Yea they do. You just get sick of it after a while imo

[boreal scarab]

Hotel Penn? Penn Station?

[modest thicket]

[split compass]

I gues Hotel Pennsylvania is ontop of Penn station yeah.

[modest thicket]

[boreal scarab]

Nah, that's just New York

[jade wing]

When I was down there. In New York, I got with some “urban explorers” and we went through all kinds of wild ass tunnels etc it was a blast

If I was single I could do that all day for sure it was fun

[flint sluice]

You'd like the train tunnels here in Sydney.

They do tours of the underground and secret platforms etc.

Old war tunnels too.

[boreal scarab]

WHy you have to choose different options, from a panini, to a hamburger, sandwhich, bagel

[jade wing]

How dare you dox New York

[boreal scarab]

[split compass]

Ask a GPT to hallucinate a new one for you? 😄
