[upper minnow]

Sadly statistics end up being important in almost every area when youre doing studies

[jolly aspen]

That’s the part I like most

[rapid merlin]

it is not too bad when you can use that data to change a persons life for the better though 🙂

We had to study phychology for my compsci BA

[chilly veldt]

I know everything that there is to know about internal stuff, and can fix approximately it all, which is why I have to do data analysis right now to get some data that I need for fixing a different issue

[snow palm]

just let me be sigmund freud coming up with some weird outlandish psychoanalytical theories while blackout drunk but don't ask me to collect and evaluate data

[jolly aspen]

That was the cocaine

[upper minnow]

And now you're doing hacking as a hobby?

[snow palm]

yes, correct. i just wanted to keep it PG13

[sick lance]

Which is pointless if it's brought up.

No drug promotion please

[rapid merlin]

stick to coca tea for the altitude mountain climbs

[snow path]

Howdy

[snow palm]

not really doing it, still in the learning phase. i think IT and psychology is an excellent combination if you want to pursue red teaming as a potential hobby

[upper minnow]

We had some coca tea when we went to peru

[sturdy pike]

Oh you're on, I was totally not gonna swear about my laptop lagging as a mf.

[sick lance]

I've been here the whole time

[upper minnow]

I mean in the documents it says im a software engineer even though i only do data

[near sapphire]

scrubz is always lurking

[upper minnow]

So im just gonna change some details

[jolly aspen]

you can make a bot alert mods

But yeah, lying on your cv is fraud.

[upper minnow]

I was talking to nother guy from this server who was questioning pursuing a career in one of those areas

[chilly veldt]

almost at 100k

[mellow gull]

Fake it till you make it has consequences.

[sturdy pike]

It ain't fraud if I don't know anything. And write nothing.

[sick lance]

Then you're not lying then.

[sturdy pike]

That's the point.

[snow path]

Fraud is bad guys

[sturdy pike]

Alright, I'll be back in an hour or two

[snow path]

YUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRR

We love networking

[cloud quiver]

Congrats 🙂 🚀

[snow path]

I'm learning about radio waves and cell towers for fun

[rapid merlin]

they need to rebalance the point system

[cloud quiver]

Which resources are you using 🙂 ?

[snow path]

Google

And youtube

[near sapphire]

wdym

[pliant onyx]

There's a specific wireless frequency which people are not allowed to use because it's reserved for police and/or military application

[sick lance]

You should ask Ninja about this when they're around.

[pliant onyx]

On walky-talkies

[upper minnow]

Yea its weird how medium rooms give as many points as easy

[cloud quiver]

Any particular channel 🙂 ?

[sick lance]

Not weird.

[snow path]

Bet

[pliant onyx]

How are points decided?

[jolly aspen]

Ads-b and sdr’s are great ways to get started with radio

[cloud quiver]

https://help.tryhackme.com/en/articles/6563910-points-explained

[snow path]

Right now all I know is that your phone transmits a radio wave and that hops from cell tower to cell tower until it reaches the client you are calling

[rapid merlin]

I watched this one recently https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVyu7NB7W6Y

[near sapphire]

why is it made like that btw, just curious whats the reason for not granting harder rooms more points

[rapid merlin]

Im gonna be #1 on LB this month, watch

This was a good video

[snow palm]

what did he say?

[rapid merlin]

What are the rewards for winning KOTH?

[sick lance]

I like your determination but there isn't enough rooms.

[pliant onyx]

Lovely

[sick lance]

A badge

[pallid lotus]

They used to give bonus points to harder rooms. Can't remember why that was nuked.

[rapid merlin]

How so? Im already top 20

[snow path]

Would yall say it's easier to get a job in networking than cyber security?

[cloud quiver]

I think it is 🙂

[sick lance]

Monthly?

[rapid merlin]

yes

[white crow]

I sent friend request to my friend but he isn't available. Can anyone guide me on this please

[sick lance]

Ah I thought you meant overall

[sick lance]

Check email

[snow palm]

networking definitely. i got a job at networking directly after graduating from school over references

[rapid merlin]

no way lol, dont think its possible. people who maxed first will always be at top.

I think so at least.

[snow palm]

it was also partly because of the company because they hired any idiot

[snow path]

Bet, i'm trying to build my way up to something in networking and then eventually something different

[snow palm]

but that would never work in cyber

[near sapphire]

aint no one beating 0day

[sick lance]

Concentrate on recently released challenge boxes, they offer most points for monthly

[jolly aspen]

Even if you finished all rooms today you’ll still be less than halfway

[rapid merlin]

thank you ^

Ill do that

[snow path]

Maybe one day

[snow palm]

why so, how did he get his points?

[near sapphire]

fbs

[jolly aspen]

Because point values change as they age

[near sapphire]

probably

[mellow gull]

There are challenges that provide additional points and first bloods and stuff.

0day won't be beat until he retires, it's literally impossible.

[near sapphire]

and some rooms are privated

[snow palm]

ah i see

[gleaming grove]

2/3 left to be a one of the cool guys

[upper minnow]

Oh hes nearly finishing school and thinking which area he should pursue, he likes computer stuff but psychology seems like a good idea since people seem to be growing more mentally unstable these days

[snow palm]

spawn camper.

[snow path]

I haven't been doing cyber security much lately, i'm about to lock in

[mellow gull]

Definition of a gatekeeper smh

[jolly aspen]

Increase in mentally unstable does not mean increase in job market share

[snow path]

There's so much to learn when it comes to tech ngl, I find it hard to focus on just one thing because I wanna explore the whole ocean

[upper minnow]

His words not mine

[snow palm]

yeah definitely. psychology is great if you want to understand yourself and other people and of course if you are the kind of person that dreams of helping other people. but working there is not really interesting unless you really are dedicated to help people

also the pay is shit

[near sapphire]

read their minds and get their passwords, no hacking needed

[snow palm]

so the degree is mostly useless unless you want to specialise in forensics or cognitive neuroscience

[jolly aspen]

Psychology degrees are fairly versatile for management roles. It’s not all clinical work

[snow palm]

well if that was that easy. funnily in rare cases it does work

[jolly aspen]

That’s what I did

[snow palm]

you are in cog neuro?

[jolly aspen]

Yes

[near sapphire]

hacking the brain 🔥

[snow palm]

that's insane, so how come you are also active here?

[snow path]

Time to go study, everyone have a blessed day

[jolly aspen]

Tech pays better

[mellow gull]

People can't have hobbies anymore

[snow palm]

that's not the point. cog neuroscience is mostly academic research and that takes a shitload of time off of your schedule

[jolly aspen]

Hobbies > life

[near sapphire]

hobbies == life

[snow palm]

valid

[jolly aspen]

It does, if you are lucky enough to have a shitload of funding

[mellow gull]

Life is for living.

[jolly aspen]

Which, funding is drying up fast at the moment

[chilly veldt]

we on them big numbers now

[snow palm]

ah yes, the classical graveyard effect of academic researchers

[near sapphire]

how long has this been going on

[snow palm]

everyone thinks it's cool since andrew huberman went viral but it's good to hear people talk about the dark sides of it to portray the reality of it

[jolly aspen]

Everyone’s a neuroscientist now

[rapid merlin]

@chilly veldt for some reason my brain thought you were interested in retro interfaces, sorry if that game link seemed odd 🤓

[snow palm]

"sir, this is a pet store"

[jolly aspen]

morning sunlight viewing, brain +++

[chilly veldt]

you can do calculations on that, at 10:13 I posted 29k
at 10:47 I posted 119k

that's 90k increase in 34 minutes

[chilly veldt]

don't apologize, I just brushed over it and someone came and asked for help at work, so I forgot about it 😄

[fringe nacelle]

And a Doctor, Physician, physiatrists.

Etc

[mellow narwhal]

By anyone? 👀

[near sapphire]

skidy could if he wanted to

[jolly aspen]

Cancer? Nbd, I listen to huberman everymorning

[mellow gull]

He's the only person that has enough points to be the new top tier role and it's not by a small number.

[silver sky]

The only person able to compete with him was Szymon

[chilly veldt]

that means 2647 rows per minute approximetly
I am now at 132k rows
if we take 132k and divide by 2647, that's 49 minutes it's been running

[near sapphire]

i assumed its not linear fsr

[fringe nacelle]

You could win though

[jolly aspen]

There’s roughly 65k points available at this moment. The first bloods account for a large proportion of points that are not capable of getting

[chilly veldt]

technically not linear, but it differs so little that it doesn't make big changes in time

[mellow gull]

I win by not caring enough about an arbitrary point value in a game I can't win.

[fringe nacelle]

[chilly veldt]

cause then we also have to factor in response time from the sql server, the load of my laptop and the server, and the locking of writing into a file that is done per thread that I have running which is 5 threads, cause we don't want to break the memory by overwriting

[mellow gull]

How am I at rank 20 lmao?

[sinful bobcat]

Monthly ?

[mellow gull]

I've been inactive as hell this month

[rapid merlin]

might as well do the easy ones now since points dont go by level

[sinful bobcat]

I started 20 days ago tho

And I already had some "experience"

But I lack all the theory

[rapid merlin]

where is this at

[jolly aspen]

And priv esc

[sinful bobcat]

I really don't like it

wow you rank up fast

[sinful bobcat]

I started hacking at 14 only for fun

[upper minnow]

Mines the same

[sinful bobcat]

[near sapphire]

i have higher priv esc 🔥

[rugged kayak]

why are yall avoiding privesc

its the most fun

[rapid merlin]

I started when I was like 10-11, we didnt have dialup but I had a pc so I ran phone line from my neighbors and stole a modem from my school

[sinful bobcat]

Man give me logs instead, I like logs, network and web exploitation

[jolly aspen]

You’re so privileged

[rugged kayak]

i like logs too

[upper minnow]

Ive been doing the pathway and theres no privesc on it

[rugged kayak]

fair point

[rapid merlin]

same and I also love cracking/decrypting

[jolly aspen]

Yea the pathways don’t have priv esc until mid pentester stuff

But got too sleepy to finish the room

[gleaming grove]

i will probably try and finish year of the x challenges

but i need to setup a vm first

[upper minnow]

Half the old rooms are invisible if you use dark mode

[rugged kayak]

fml

.sh is top level domain

not file extension in this case

[rapid merlin]

just open it in a vm browser

if you dont feel safe

nah

[rugged kayak]

no

[upper minnow]

Oh thats confusing

[rugged kayak]

if you click in https://site[.]sh

you are safe

if you do come across links youre unsure about, open them in a virtual machine

@topaz topaz what does your day look like today?

@sick lance inspired me to listen to Crystal Castles over in #876804968731009055

ntg much just my working hours started also there is CTF tomorrow in univeristy and its being a year since i solved any

wbu

[topaz topaz]

How Will you practice?

I'm doing okk, can't wait to finish work in an hour, do some thm and advance the ctf I've left idle

Where is that 🙂 ? Which two seasons do you have 🙂 ?

[rapid merlin]

for something not computer related, this can be really fun to learn https://www.schneier.com/academic/solitaire/

yes fr am suggesting that to classmates to practice

[topaz topaz]

By the way, I noticed the learning path has been nerfed in design, it used to be a tree design and now it's just random squares in the page, what's up with that?

[sturdy pike]

It's simplicity.

[rapid merlin]

its still there but tree design is new

[topaz topaz]

It's not as easy to follow as before :/

[topaz topaz]

I remember at first the learning path page was a branching design

[topaz topaz]

If anything it's more complex

[rapid merlin]

u have to nevigate a different page to see all paths as it was used to

[topaz topaz]

Especially considering the first learning path is SOC Level 1 which isn't ideal

[topaz topaz]

Oh

So it still exists?

[rapid merlin]

let mee see uf u can send ss

[sturdy pike]

Go to Learn > Learn and you'll see it

What are you going to do today 🙂 ?

[rapid merlin]

these?

[topaz topaz]

Yeh that's the design I don't like haha

My layout is also different to yours

[sturdy pike]

I'm trying to complete this whole module today but let's see how far I can go.

[rapid merlin]

um well idk why that

[topaz topaz]

Do it!! It's a great module

[cloud quiver]

I would recommend you not to do Wireshark today 🙂

[rapid merlin]

go for it i was solving it in mroning just revising stuff

[rapid merlin]

it will take time

[cloud quiver]

Yeah definitely this is tooooooo much for one day

[rapid merlin]

agree wireshark while doing it making notes is must else u will forget things soon

[sturdy pike]

No wireshark today? Sure, will give me time to do some maths and python.

[cloud quiver]

No stop at Networking Secure Protocols

Other rooms are too imporant and they have a lot of material

[sturdy pike]

i have a habit of making notes, even if I'm copying and pasting them, I do it in a way that's more understandable just like how I'd type it out.

[rapid merlin]

gtg guys alerts starts on my name

[rapid merlin]

thats good

[sturdy pike]

Yup, that's where I mean to stop at today, I won't skip over the rooms, like to do it linearly haha

[rapid merlin]

i didnt make SOC L2 notes in here cuz ig thats my daily work nearby i do all of it everyday

[cloud quiver]

Yeah , don't rush , this is a marathon 🙂 🏃‍♂️‍➡️

if you spend each day learning with good notes and real focus its so much better!

[near sapphire]

Its extremely hot then raining non stop lol which sucks when your only method of transportation is by foot but ive gotten used to it

[rapid merlin]

thats good i still have all notes i made during my way and now hard to keep up making notes i have to work on it

[upper knoll]

honestly if thats the case take a break or swap room types i did lots of walkthroughs and now have spent two weeks doing a challange room a day my note taking motivation came back!

got some great notes on cyberlens(easy challange windows server exploit room) yesterday

Making notes looks hard until you actually get to it, once a habit, always a habit, that's what I like

This is what I learned for today, making more notes.

[rapid merlin]

for me its being a year and am just figuring out how to improve in daily work as well continuing university with job and extra time for THM a bit hard for manage

[slow cloud]

how do the notes look you guys take? are they keywords or are you typing full paragraphs

[rapid merlin]

thats how it should be

[snow path]

Fancy organization

[rapid merlin]

making notes has been super helpful for me, and from what I hear others

[upper knoll]

if its hard to manage imo just try and do it more for fun and when u have time

[rapid merlin]

imp points

[upper knoll]

depends

some stuff is more explained some stuff is more points and commands for me

[snow path]

What are you using for note taking?

[upper knoll]

i use notepad or google docs like a scrub

[slow cloud]

i use obsidian

[boreal scarab]

although I have to admit, someone here said to me that I should learn nano in the event I could not use vi, and they shared a valuable lesson to me, as I ended up needing nano 🙂

[upper minnow]

incomprehensible keywords

[upper knoll]

ive always used nano icl

[slow cloud]

yeah me too

[upper knoll]

echo is super helpful too if u want to oneline things

[fringe nacelle]

Nano is very nice.

[slow cloud]

vi is the worst

[fringe nacelle]

This ^

[rapid merlin]

[boreal scarab]

No one's going to com.ent about ms paint.. damn

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-26069546

[sturdy pike]

I feel like I'll need nano for HTB as I'll be on linux most of the time, which is why I'm taking my time preparing for a longer streak on HTB.

The Plague..

1995 movies hit dif

[rapid merlin]

I remember in WarGames the main character looking at the NORAD user interface saying "that's some setup" 🙂

[topaz topaz]

Love wargames

And hackers 1995, what a vibe these were

They were beautiful films to watch on a summer afternoon right after an 8 hour shift 😂

[rapid merlin]

we did a movie in the park with WarGames event during summer, forests area with a massive projector, was really fun

Whats the name of the movie based on Mitnick

[cloud quiver]

Takedown ?

[rapid merlin]

I have no seen, yet is it this? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0159784/

yesss

Takedown*

heads up, R rated

ooo no

better ask my mom first

[rapid merlin]

this is a great place to practice PG-13 advocacy

it comes in handy for cybersecurity work imo

[chilly veldt]

Time for a break from work and have a meeting with a journalist

[rapid merlin]

fun!

[upper minnow]

ok yall convinced me im installing obsidian

[rapid merlin]

Cant even find take down on any of my pirate stream sites

[rapid merlin]

you would love doing street outreach with me 🙂

make sure you get some of the good plugins like the CANVAS, voice notes, and command palette

for obsidian ^

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, it's what, the 7th time I'm meeting with journalists since October

[rapid merlin]

do you help them with privacy?

generally curious

journalists seem to need help from people in cybersecurity afaik

[chilly veldt]

I do projects

They need an expert of things they want to talk about, and if I feel like it's a topic I can share my knowledge on and help with, I help

[north garden]

[sick lance]

Just avoid taking any notes with exploitation, especially Windows.

[rapid merlin]

awesome

[chilly veldt]

Yeah, free learning

[rapid merlin]

🙂

[chilly veldt]

I do most of it anonymously, cause I don't want my name shared out

[rapid merlin]

makes sense

[sturdy pike]

Tryhackme started in 2018?

[mental fiber]

Is Attackbox's expired before 2 hours?

[sturdy pike]

You an add time

[cloud quiver]

It should last at least 2h , it can last even more if you exceed time 🙂

[near sapphire]

does linux distros such as ubuntu or kali not have av

[cloud quiver]

Pre-installed - no 🙂

[rugged kayak]

dont take them on windows

[sturdy pike]

Does it need av tho? I've always thought of it as if you're carrying bugs, why carry pesticide with you too?

[sick lance]

The os isn't the issue.

It's the content.

[sturdy pike]

If there's exploitation code, will it be locked behind antivirus?

[rapid merlin]

random thought, the only reason I use the 24-hour clock is because 13:37 is a possibility 😄

[sick lance]

Yes

Which is why the OS doesn't matter

[sturdy pike]

What if you don't save it as an executable file and just add it as a comment?

[mellow gull]

Basically the process of creating shellcode and the like sets off AV regardless of OS, hence why Kali doesn't come with it prepacked.

Comment doesn't matter, AV searches for strings

[sick lance]

It's not the file being analysed only.

[upper minnow]

the fact that 0:00 is 12am in the american clock is hideous to me

[rapid merlin]

I hate the 12 hour clock also

[sturdy pike]

Then should I make the exploitation codes on github?

[rapid merlin]

thankful you have choices 👍

[upper minnow]

10pm 11pm 12am 1am how does this make sense

[sick lance]

That's one place, yeah.

[rapid merlin]

don't even consider metric time, where 1 hour is 100 minutes 😄

[upper minnow]

it should be 0am

[rapid merlin]

like the microwave 😄

[rugged kayak]

just write exploits inside linux

you dont have avs there

[upper minnow]

or just paste images of the code

[sturdy pike]

I don't trust my VM, I'm afraid I'll break it and snapshots won't help as I would've progressed too far.

[sick lance]

0am would make it confusing for some people.

[rugged kayak]

github

[sick lance]

00:00 is the best.

[sick lance]

Or don't write notes in plain text.

[sturdy pike]

That's what I'm talking about, here's a cookie 🍪

[sturdy pike]

I'll change the font to cursive

[rugged kayak]

trillium is good alternative to obsidian

[upper minnow]

the worst part is that ppl call 24 hour "military time"

its not military time its normal people time

[rapid merlin]

fun fact; time doesnt really exist

[sick lance]

It's due to it's use.

[mellow gull]

I've got plenty of notes on a (external and encrypted, don't say the thing, Scrubz) drive on my windows machine I just don't include any actual malicious code of any kind.

[rugged kayak]

it stores notes in database iirc

[upper minnow]

how have i wasted so much of it then

[rapid merlin]

it is cool to know it is not a constant

[sturdy pike]

"CADET! BE READY AT 14:00 OR YOUR MOTHER WON"T BRING LUNCH!"

[rapid merlin]

you havent

[devout palm]

It does exist, as the 4th dimension

[sick lance]

This is to avoid confusion.

1400 hours sounds a lot better than

2

[sturdy pike]

I know, 2 of what? am or pm?

[sick lance]

Exactly.

[shut hawk]

2PM

[devout palm]

GM

[sick lance]

Yes, we know it's 2 PM.

[sturdy pike]

2PM sounds soft by a seargent yelling it out loud

[sick lance]

That's kind of my point, though.

[shut hawk]

yeah, you don't just say the number tho, you add on AM or PM

[polar shale]

Yeeooo

[upper minnow]

also annoying how time will change to 12 notation in excel

[sturdy pike]

1400 hours sounds like a man who'd lift you up with one hand.

[shut hawk]

😂 lmao

[upper minnow]

god i hope i never have to use excel again

[sturdy pike]

Is this your cat?!

That's the cutest thing I've seen all month

[polar shale]

Not yet

[sturdy pike]

thanks!

[upper minnow]

i consider excel programmer as a slur

[rapid merlin]

@sick lance I can only imagine in forensics that iso date format with zulu time is important?

[sick lance]

It's all done in UTC

[mellow narwhal]

you're an excel programmer

[sturdy pike]

Bring 'er home.

[polar shale]

vbs pro btw

[upper minnow]

[sturdy pike]

I got distracted again, I'll go, see ya later.

[mellow narwhal]

[sturdy pike]

Don't ping me.

noooooooooo

[polar shale]

Same bye guys

[glacial cove]

Excelling at my programming today

[rugged kayak]

ping

[polar shale]

😺

[rapid merlin]

awesome to hear, what language are you programming with?

[sick lance]

All timezones need to be identified ASAP.

So all the evidence can be linked.

[glacial cove]

I was just hitting the pun

[rapid merlin]

makes sense

[polar shale]

I wish all great success 🐱

[sick lance]

Whenever I do anything like that, that's my number one priority.

[glacial cove]

Been trying to learn Flask as an entry to web-dev for the sake of it

[rapid merlin]

a consistency

[sick lance]

That was kind of my point, too.

[rapid merlin]

the more I worked international the more I was like YYYY-DD-MM-hh:mm:ssZ

[upper minnow]

also the confusion of day month or month day notation

[rapid merlin]

wait, I got DD MM backwards 😛

[upper minnow]

worst thing is when you only have days up to 12 and you cant know which one it is using

[rugged kayak]

dd-mm-yyyy is only correct one and i am ready to defend it with my life

[sick lance]

All depends.

EnCase will sort all dates to match the format for all.

[upper minnow]

agreed, but theres an specific country that thinks different and makes life hell

[rapid merlin]

to keep it simple https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

[sick lance]

You need to set it to the format you want, then all dates will match it.

[rapid merlin]

you know you work international when you set your tmux status bar to ISO date format to zulu time 😄

[upper minnow]

yea but when the dates are recorded as strings(which i really hate) im not able to know the format

why would anyone record dates as strings

its evil

[fossil merlin]

Morning gang

[upper minnow]

fake news it says over 400

[fossil merlin]

[pliant onyx]

Pog, but aren't there 396 challenges

[sick lance]

I know, I just pinged staff.

[pliant onyx]

Amen

[rugged kayak]

this means that over 400 other rooms are walkthroughs

[upper minnow]

god such omnious names

[pliant onyx]

I'd say it mentions 'challenges' in the name

[sick lance]

I was sad to hear the Windcoprs (Osiris) was moved to HTB.

[pliant onyx]

And including walkthroughs, it would be an even higher number

[sick lance]

Walkthrough rooms are not challenge.

[boreal scarab]

[sick lance]

Use the search 😄

[upper minnow]

doesnt searching sqli do the job

im getting 33 results

[blissful snow]

when i search sometimes it doesn't give me all the rooms

[fossil merlin]

Gang, how do you wake up quicker?

[upper knoll]

Like earlier or functionally awake?

[cloud quiver]

Personally I don't use any AV

[upper knoll]

You can always run a second opinion if your worried about anything for a quick scan

[blissful snow]

set an alarm

[rapid merlin]

I don't feel alone

[mellow gull]

It's incredibly easy to avoid viruses by following very basic risk awareness, especially on linux machines.

[rapid merlin]

I AM the Anti-virus

[upper knoll]

I just recommend them to less tech literate people

[rapid merlin]

I can also be THE virus

which is funny as I have written code to work with CrowdStrike 😄

EICAR test file is the biggest alert I've had

[upper knoll]

[upper knoll]

I know I’m messing with ya

[rugged kayak]

bold of you to assume common sense is a thing

[rapid merlin]

Do stretches when you wake up.

[rapid merlin]

Some simple calinthenics in the morning is a good booster

[upper minnow]

put the alarm far away from you so you have to stand up to turn it off

[mellow gull]

My alarm triggers a panic reaction that immediately places me into an alert state.

[blissful snow]

this what i get when i search sqli with free selected and type info

[rapid merlin]

I put the alarm under my pillow with vibrate on zig-zag

i lost most of my hearing so it helps alot

[upper knoll]

I use to do that with death metal at full volume!

[rapid merlin]

also smart watch alarm = banger

[upper minnow]

[rapid merlin]

who is coding with zig?

[upper knoll]

also Jurassic park is easy ctf that gives a lot of points

ins't that a hard room

[upper minnow]

it says hard though

[rapid merlin]

I doubt it, yet hey, if I advocated for a new lang? cool 🙂

[rapid merlin]

some of the hard ones arent really hard at all

just takes time

I would love people to learn more low level languages

[blissful snow]

c is enough

[rapid merlin]

c is low levle?

[rugged kayak]

it does but its really basic imo

nothing too complicated

[rapid merlin]

search for THM buffer overflow rooms and https://phrack.org/issues/49/14

[rapid merlin]

@boreal scarab hopefully you can heal any pain I go through when I have to learn active directory as that feel intimidating

just fear of the unknown really

I usually get excited though, as I learn the rewards of the learning

[slow cloud]

active directory isnt too bad

[rapid merlin]

I used to be afraid of PowerShell because it seemed opposite to syntax I knew

yet today it is not so bad

I just needed to practice using it to feel better about it

[slow cloud]

powershell is really nice for active directory

exposure therapy 😄

[slow cloud]

powershell in general is nice for windows stuff

[slow cloud]

im currently doing that with python

[rapid merlin]

it is really useful

fun

it is

just learning it is a bit tough

[upper minnow]

wish we learnt powershell at my job

we do automate stuff but its all with fucking POWER AUTOMATE

god i hate microsoft power tools

[slow cloud]

i mean nothing is holding you back from learning powershell

but knowing power automate could also be nice

hard pill to swallow if you want to work in corporate lol had this same realization whenever i started working lol. AD, Win10, PS, IIS e.g.

[rapid merlin]

happy you are able to voice your experiences, we can all learn from that

[polar shale]

unless you work for Amazon lol they got lots of fun to have with Linux system administration , docker .e.g.

[rapid merlin]

we have a lot of opportunity is what I am hearing

hopeful people never feel stuck

[polar shale]

well it is only my own haha maybe others have different but it seems like as of now working in corporate America you will need to learn Windows Fundamental / Envrionment

[rapid merlin]

I believe that learning Windows is useful

I am having that growth experience now

yet it does not take away from other learning

[polar shale]

I would almost argue necessary

[slow cloud]

very

[rapid merlin]

yes

[polar shale]

yea its all the same shit just black box

In comparison

[slow cloud]

we have one forensic investigator here and she has no technical background

just the fundamentals

Just kept it as a vice because i used to use drugs in my teens and thought if anything i will keep that little vice of vaping but im overall just wanna be done with everything. I live a really healthy lifestyle outside of my few left over vices (at least i try)

[upper minnow]

linpeas save me

not sure how to find the flags now tbh

[oblique furnace]

Day 12

[mellow narwhal]

For real though, I've bug hunted SO many sites which casually have working RSA/OpenSSH private keys thrown around in Gitlab instances lmfao

[heavy breach]

bump

[mellow narwhal]

Nice

This comes in handy in bug bounties btw

[oblique furnace]

if ur not aware, i'm challenging myself to 180 days straight of THM and WSA

i'm on day 12 right now

doing slow progress is the key

[mellow narwhal]

Oh that's very nice

[cloud quiver]

Great job 🙂 🚀

[mellow narwhal]

Wdym by WSA?

[rugged kayak]

this one is very specific

you have only two flags most of the time

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/wow-gif-20411229

[upper minnow]

i found the fifth flag by accident

[blissful snow]

well dam

i have none of this

[cloud quiver]

Burp's Web Academy is a really good resource , I would recommend you to combine it with THM's web app pentesting path 🙂

[oblique furnace]

Portswigger Web Security Academy

check hacktools extension for firefox

[cloud quiver]

They are a great combo , some labs are better on WSA some on THM

[oblique furnace]

the reason why i have both chromium and firefox pinned

is because firefox is my "normal" activity browser

and chromium is exclusively for pentesting

[blissful snow]

im stealing all of the notes 😈

[upper minnow]

ultimate garbage collection

[oblique furnace]
