yoo sudo_veggies, what do I call you? Sudo or veggies?

[frosty thunder]

any room. after a bit being on the tab is fine. but when i just open the tab after say a minute of inactivity it takes solid 5-10 seconds to respond to any clicks

[grizzled wing]

either

[mellow gull]

You on a chromium browser?

[fiery imp]

alright, veggies seems fine

[crystal lynx]

You Sure it would'nt destroy my laptop?

[rapid merlin]

If its fully charged, unplug it. Not good for your battery to use it while plugged in 24/7. Also tilt your laptop for better airflow underneath, I use this little piece of wood to tilt my laptop.

[frosty thunder]

safari

[grizzled wing]

i am 💯 NOT sure.

?

[blazing granite]

clean it, change the thermal paste, and or use a outside cooler system

[rapid merlin]

They also sell these fan cooling pad thingys for laptops.

[cloud quiver]

Try with FireFox if possible

[grizzled wing]

my 'either' was for R3DD

[crystal lynx]

I don't have the battery so I have to plug it till for its working

[crystal lynx]

Did it

[fiery imp]

lmaoo

[naive violet]

Lift it up at the back for sure

Don't use it on your lap either

[frosty thunder]

what about brave or no? cuz i would have to download firefox but i already have brave

[rapid merlin]

Okay, I would try looking into those cooling pad things for laptops. Mine doesn't get that hot though since I don't game on it.

[cloud quiver]

Try with Brave it's lightweight 🙂

[fiery imp]

yeah mate, my lap feels like a oven if I keep my laptp on it

[frosty thunder]

alright @cloud quiver , will let you know!

[grizzled wing]

Brave is good browser

[rapid merlin]

Don't download firefox, it's turning to shite.

Sadly.

[grizzled wing]

Firefox is fine, it works

[rapid merlin]

It works but it's becoming clumsy.

[blazing granite]

if you did all that the laptop should be on normal heat levels, if not make sure that the cooler are not only clean but rotate properly

[fiery imp]

Brave's good, but extensions are great on firefox

[grizzled wing]

the evolution of shadows variable names:

[devout palm]

But nobody is going to know what that variable is

[sick lance]

Are you just here to troll?

[eternal timber]

How is this guy still here

[rapid merlin]

Shhhh Kamma

They will figure it out eventually lol

[sick lance]

Because they haven't left?

[sick lance]

Er, what?

[rapid merlin]

They want to take my freedom of speech

[eternal timber]

Imagine if you could ban him 🤔

[sand trench]

yeah not even shadow... had to look at commit messages for it

[eternal timber]

Weren’t you going around calling everyone a subhuman

[sick lance]

I can. 🙂

[rapid merlin]

That he's still here trolling and won't stop. Why I suggested mandatory verification.

[rapid merlin]

"I dont like what you said. Now we have to ban you"

[trail sequoia]

You have freedom of speech but you need to apply filters to yourself if you want to be respected in a community.

[eternal timber]

Exactly

[sick lance]

Nah.

That's not a good idea.

[rapid merlin]

That's a first.

How is it not?

[sick lance]

We get new members who find the server before the website.

Why should they be punished?

[frosty thunder]

guys where am i supposed to download the wordlists from

[rapid merlin]

Calm down dude its just words on a screen

[sick lance]

Depends on the wordlist.

[rapid merlin]

That's why we said make a room for people without verification.

[trail sequoia]

Which wordlists?

[frosty thunder]

i am doing the web enumeration room

[sinful bobcat]

If you are using Kali you can find some already in /usr/share/wordlists/

[rapid merlin]

seclist on github

[frosty thunder]

nah im on mac

[rapid merlin]

https://github.com/danielmiessler/SecLists

[trail sequoia]

on attackbox there are many wordlists, /usr/share/wordlists

[frosty thunder]

im doing vpn. attack box is so slow

[sick lance]

Verification isn't forced on users.

[rapid merlin]

We know.

[sick lance]

We have members who use the website and don't wish to be verified.

They shouldn't be excluded from general.

[trail sequoia]

then you should take a look to SecLists

[frosty thunder]

i wish the rooms mentioned this at some point. maybe it's such a fundamental thing that they assume you gotta know.

but at least the web enumeration should mention it

[trail sequoia]

I always asked myself the same thing

[ashen dock]

Dude

[grizzled wing]

haha 6th Batman

[ashen dock]

Can someone say how to get the instagram password of my gf 😶‍🌫️(without asking)

[grizzled wing]

@mossy river

[sick lance]

No, that would be illegal, and against our community rules.

[ashen dock]

6th 😅

[eager marsh]

Jesus not these guys again

[grizzled wing]

yes, 5 previous Batmans have arrived

[ashen dock]

Ohh

[sick lance]

Yes, if you wish access, just ask her.

Otherwise respect her privacy.

[frosty thunder]

actually next lesson was that. maybe they added recently. in the webenumeration room

[ashen dock]

Hmm

[trail sequoia]

Really? Which room are you doing?

Maybe i did that but i don't remember the SecList mention 😅

[rapid merlin]

I'd like to add that computer crimes over the internet is a federal offense. You DO NOT want to do federal time. Not only you have to do at-least 80% of your sentence(compared to 50% state level), you are also housed with violent inmates regardless of your case.

Please, do not do anything illegal online.

[fiery imp]

damn, I switched to a diff server for a while and now I don't know what you guys talkin about

holy shit thats incredible

didnt expect nasa to be such cheapskates though

they should give you a sattelite

damn big expectations man

id love to have the ISS

[orchid pawn]

wait

[mellow gull]

Speaking of I still need to get some moon dust at some point for the desk.

[rapid merlin]

Apparently NASA doesn't have a real "bug bounty" program. They call it something else.

https://www.nasa.gov/vulnerability-disclosure-policy/

[sick lance]

Tbh.

I'd appreciate recognition from Nasa more than money.

[grizzled wing]

Jason Haddix hacked NASA via GitHub tokens

[trail sequoia]

I agree, bigger achievement than just money.

[eternal timber]

Hey ChatGPT
Write a letter to thank this guy

[sick lance]

It would look great in any interview.

I have a letter of thanks from Nasa.

I have money from Nasa, that I've spent on x

[silver sky]

And even if it was written by chat GPT. It's been issued by the organisation and would look very good on a CV or in an interview

[trail sequoia]

I think you could land any job

[eternal timber]

Yes, Ik. Im joking

[sick lance]

Time and place for such jokes, it comes across as trolling, which is ironic.

[blazing granite]

NASA wants me, but I'd rather work for your company 😉 😂

[eager marsh]

My dads gonna get it framed lol

[silver sky]

Good man

Be proud of that

[naive violet]

Vdp tends to refer to unpaid

[trail sequoia]

your parents must be proud asf

[eager marsh]

I still count it as a victory

[sick lance]

The letter isn't a job offer.

[naive violet]

Yeah definitely

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, I was in middle of reading about it lol.

[naive violet]

IMO you shouldn't be bounty hunting for $$$

[rapid merlin]

0_0

[eager marsh]

I started because I wanted to help my momma out with the bills

[trail sequoia]

i think you can but not as a main source of income

[rapid merlin]

Why not? You're saving billionaire corporations millions of dollars and they shouldn't pay us?

[sick lance]

That's almost grey hat thinking.

Expecting money for disclosure.

[naive violet]

The money is a bonus, do it to practice skills or something

[rapid merlin]

My brother found a bug that could have cost a company $20-100 million.

[trail sequoia]

Yeah, bug bounty its amazing for practice also

[rapid merlin]

He got $40k for that. Thats nothing to them.

[eager marsh]

I ain’t doing it for money scrubz, I do it because the thrill of discovering vulnerabilities is its own reward

[upper minnow]

i mean i dont expect to get money from it

but such a big company should give you at least something

[sick lance]

My comment wasn't directed to you 🙂

[sturdy pike]

I'd be more satisfied to find a flaw in a near "Perfect" infrastructure, even if I don't get money, I'd be more than happy that I proved myself somewhere.

[upper minnow]

its pocket change 4 them

[naive violet]

Bug bounty is a courtesy to good faith security research
It's not designed to be a job

[rapid merlin]

not even that, its dirt in their carpet for them.

[eager marsh]

NASA isn’t perfect

Far from it

[trail sequoia]

If they could have really lost 100 million, 40k is really bad

[rapid merlin]

My point.

[sturdy pike]

Oh it's just for theory, I don't believe anything is perfect

[eager marsh]

It gets even worse when you realize that I’ve found three bugs in usdas infra and I didn’t get a thank you

[naive violet]

Prosecuting you for attacking their infra is worse though.

[silver sky]

It's a reward for responsible disclosure. Rewards aren't guaranteed, you can be responsible as hell and disclose vulnerabilities to a company but you shouldn't expect reward every time.

Because at the end of the day, the reason why you should be disclosing vulnerabilities is to protect everybody who uses their services/business and if they're kind enough to offer you some money in return, that's really good. But at the end of the day, you'll learn your skill set from it

[rapid merlin]

There's people that does this for a living, like my big brother does.

[queen willow]

ok

[silver sky]

😅 bug bounty is not a job

[sick lance]

Wow.

I've seen it all now.

[queen willow]

what about a lemur juggling 3 baby birds?

[rapid merlin]

Freelancing, yes it is technically a job.

[queen willow]

i bet you haven’t seen that

[silver sky]

That's actually impressive

[sick lance]

I've seen one juggle six.

[queen willow]

alright man what the fuck ever

[trail sequoia]

what the hell is happening in this server 😂

[jolly aspen]

😅

[heady ginkgo]

i feel like it could be if your really good at it

[silver sky]

I freelance too but I wouldn't consider it a job.

[eternal timber]

What do you consider it then

[rapid merlin]

How is it not?...

[eager marsh]

My boys frostb1te and cinzinga find bugs like nobodies buisness, and they don’t consider bug bounty a job

[trail sequoia]

Yeah but consider if you cant find any vulnerabilities for anyone for a week or even a month, how do you bring money home?

[upper minnow]

must be nice having someone who can show you the ropes

[eager marsh]

They’re monsters

[trail sequoia]

You need to be really good to have it as a main source of income

[silver sky]

Is it guaranteed, regular income? No. Then it's not a job.

[ancient mirage]

That guy NahamSec said that you could live off bounty hunting if you're good at it. something like that, i watched some of his videos.

[heady ginkgo]

i didnt say it was a smart job or career path and you shouldent put all your eggs in one basket. But it could be

[rapid merlin]

False.

[sick lance]

And that is why bug bounty for a job is fucked.

[rapid merlin]

That's why you have other jobs as a freelancer.

[heady ginkgo]

i feel like day trading is in the same boat and ik people that have made 5m in a day

[silver sky]

sigh

[rapid merlin]

The bonus of going freelance, you can have multiple jobs.

[jolly aspen]

are we conflating job and career perhaps?

[sick lance]

Do you pay taxes on that income as a bug bounty hunter?

[upper minnow]

id say its a job for artists who sell their art for example

[rapid merlin]

You pay taxes on ALL income.

[blazing granite]

if you get pay is a job, not a stable job, but a job nonetheless

[naive violet]

Yes otherwise it's tax fraud

[grizzled wing]

i think NahamSec is part of the hype train over bug bounty being $$$$

[silver sky]

That's slightly different though, there is a fair probability of having losses and gains and the potential of humongous gains as you've just referenced.

[sick lance]

I wasn't genuinly asking, I was asking them lol.

I've spoken to people who don't expect to pay taxes on it.

And get shocked when informed otherwise.

[heady ginkgo]

but with bug bounty hunting, minus the tools you buy. its ONLY profit

[silver sky]

That's a good saying until your homeless

[naive violet]

People do not understand taxes in general, I've heard some really interesting takes

[jolly aspen]

a bit pedantic around job, career, freelance and self-employed a bit?

[rapid merlin]

You know most bug hunters have things on the side for income right? Its not like it's their only thing they have for a source of income.

[jolly aspen]

if its earned on a sunday, its tax free! /s

[heady ginkgo]

oh hey R0n1n

[jolly aspen]

hey jackson! how are you?

[blazing granite]

you're 😛 😂 😉

[heady ginkgo]

real. Putting all your eggs in one basket is stupid

[naive violet]

So there you are, it's not a reliable/main job? Perhaps that's the point we're all slowly circling?

[rapid merlin]

Telling my tax agent this.

[eternal timber]

Is gambling a job

[heady ginkgo]

good. Studying HTTP rn in a coffee shop

[silver sky]

You do realise my main source of income is completely separate from my freelance stuff.

I would never rely on any of my freelance stuff to pay my mortgage though. Oh and fun fact. Don't bother applying for a mortgage if you're just doing bug bounty.

[rapid merlin]

In some ways, yes. There's professional poker players who travels, has sponsors, etc etc.

[drowsy dust]

https://tenor.com/view/penguin-penguins-of-madagascar-smile-and-wave-gif-15835653

[jolly aspen]

but, so people earn sufficient amount in freelance work to cover expenses though

[eager marsh]

@woeful rock This dude is a monster when it comes to bug bounty

[woeful rock]

😄

[eager marsh]

And when he says that you shouldn’t do this full time

[naive violet]

There would be a legitimate way to do that for mortgage purposes, likely routing it via a business
Freelancers can get mortgages.

[eager marsh]

I listen

[jolly aspen]

hello

[eternal timber]

Yes, but what about people who gamble casually? They earn a profit sometimes so does that make it a job?

[woeful rock]

Sup sup

[rapid merlin]

I'd say no.

[silver sky]

Oh yeah don't get me wrong. I've earned a fair bit through some of my jobs that I could live comfortably for the next 3-4 months. But then they're sometimes where you just don't earn anything for a little while.

As much as it seems, really fun to just do that freelance stuff, if you have a family and you have people depending on you, it's really hard to not have a sustained income

[upper minnow]

tbh i think third world countries could manage surviving on bug hunting considering how much the dollar is worth

[eager marsh]

So sorry to interrupt you but how many CVEs do you have at this point?

[rapid merlin]

I'm talking about pros, like Phil Ivey and Doug Negrenau.

[wooden totem]

every stock broker crying rn

[eternal timber]

Then why do you think bug bounties are different

[rapid merlin]

Right^ Great example also.

[woeful rock]

Bugbounty itself is not going to be a good income, it's CAN be supplemental to your income but most people don't even find 1-2 bugs in the free programs

[blazing granite]

it's a bit hard at the beginning until you make a clientele

[woeful rock]

32

[jolly aspen]

just speaking from the US. a person can still be an entity, it doesn't need to be a registered business. but there are better tax implications to do so

[silver sky]

Yeah you'd have to route it through a business (which is another expence) but it is slightly harder to get a mortgage if you are freelance because there's a lot more ownership put on you to prove income.

[naive violet]

It's about having the proven reocrd of income when it comes to a mortgage

[queen willow]

what do you guys do

[woeful rock]

Frosto just uses bugbounty for fun and adds it as real xp for my resume

😄

[queen willow]

Like generally

[eternal timber]

Man y’all are so knowledgeable when it comes to hacking

[jolly aspen]

[heady ginkgo]

this is my goal rn

what is red team compared to pen testing?

[wooden totem]

one third of life is sleeping

[blazing granite]

the best way to get a loan is to demonstrate that you don't need it 😂

[rapid merlin]

Keep learning and experimenting Kamma.

[eternal timber]

Not really focused on it atm. Just admiring the people here

[naive violet]

Mortgage is x times your income usually, at least here it's 4-5x your annual income
You just have to prove you're unlikely to default

[orchid pawn]

about to play some halo infinite 😼

[rapid merlin]

To be hoenst, THM is GREAT for absolute beginners. Tons of great information and rooms for people who are just starting out.

Probably the best.

[sick lance]

Fortnite for me.

[woeful rock]

red team is more oriented. We do operations like emulating threat actors to improve security. Pentesting is to find all the vulns that we can.

So.... in a red team operation, we might set a goal to get inside a building or become Domain admin. We will what we can.. within means... to get to our goal instead of finding every possible way to get in

Pentesting would be like testing an application to find all the weaknesses

[jolly aspen]

i mean, a loan in dire straits is a bit risky

[silver sky]

I'm about to go spar.

[rapid merlin]

Quick question; When you say "get in a building", you mean like physically?

[woeful rock]

Yeah

[upper minnow]

have u done physical stuff?

[ancient mirage]

[upper minnow]

[woeful rock]

Yeah

[rapid merlin]

That is f*cking awesome.

clone badges, tail gating, lock picking, etc

[rapid merlin]

Wasn't aware physical stuff was included with red/blue teaming.

Thank you guys!

[naive violet]

Also as a warning, the words get used confusingly.
Being "a part of the red team" and a "red teamer" are kinda different.
The red team are the offensive side, with the blue being defenders

[jolly aspen]

gosh that image is frustrating

[rapid merlin]

I thought red teaming is just pentesting as a team.

[wooden totem]

paperclip, take it or leave it

New year slump over, time to get back into THM 🫣

[rapid merlin]

This is the one I'm getting.

https://www.lockpickersmall.com/lock-skills-premium-intro-kit/

[chilly veldt]

ebay, cause you can get amazon from germany

[stoic quarry]

Ooo nice

[upper minnow]

i got it from shopee, a shopping platform used here in brazil

[sand trench]

naaah there is amazon.se

[jolly aspen]

sparrows should have some

[chilly veldt]

true true

[jolly aspen]

https://www.sparrowslockpicks.ca/

[sand trench]

already kinda have a practice kit for lock picking

just don't have any see through ones

[rapid merlin]

yeah the clear ones are on amazon

[sand trench]

got it from a swedish store that is long out of business and no longer exists

[wooden totem]

you can't even use the cd

[eternal timber]

they even sell houses on amazon

[jolly aspen]

https://www.sparrowslockpicks.ca/product_p/clear.htm

[stoic quarry]

Good training lock that

[rapid merlin]

Why not? I have a CDR.

[wooden totem]

damn

[jolly aspen]

you can get a nice set of pins from them too to up the skill level

[sand trench]

the import costs on those would be high as it is from canada

[jolly aspen]

wellll you didnt specify

[sand trench]

true

[eternal timber]

so eepy

,av

[stoic quarry]

Perhaps... Go to sleep?

[silver sky]

How much are import costs from the UK tho?

[chilly veldt]

a lot

[sand trench]

not sure

[chilly veldt]

at least to denmark

[eternal timber]

I couldn't sleep either

the struggles of insomnia

[sand trench]

amazon.de and amazon.se and ebay are probably better bets

[jolly aspen]

you can try southord, but im not sure if they do many locks

[stoic quarry]

Sorry to hear, sucks

[eternal timber]

yeah, it does

[stoic quarry]

Don't know if that would be an improvement

Just write an extension for that, could go kinda hard

[sand trench]

hmmmm found 2 acrylic lock bundles on amazon.de

[final gyro]

c

[sand trench]

might be worth it to get if shadow feels like trying their "skills" in lock sport again

[final gyro]

[stoic quarry]

I gotta get back in to it

[final gyro]

[sick lance]

This account is linked to an account

oh okay

[upper minnow]

this person comes in everyday to greet us and never says anything

[upper knoll]

ik i was trying to see if they reply to someone

better be kind and welcoming than not

[upper minnow]

like literally

[upper knoll]

they could be shy

spread kindness no judgement here

[stoic quarry]

True

[grizzled wing]

wow

[stoic quarry]

Nothing wrong with being kind

[rapid merlin]

At-least they are polite ^_^

[upper minnow]

no wait look

[grizzled wing]

polite spam bot

[sick lance]

I know the username this Discord is linked with, let me know if you want ask if it's the same one you're logged in to

[upper minnow]

the times are always precise

[sick lance]

If not, we can switch it

[trail sequoia]

Really polite but in my opinion a little weird

[upper minnow]

thats gotta be a script or smth

[lament tendon]

There's been weirder people on here.

[stoic quarry]

Some people just like to say hello, nothin' wrong with that

[upper minnow]

nvm not all of them

[trail sequoia]

I know, way weirder ones 😂

[stoic quarry]

Very weirder ones

[chilly veldt]

So tired

[carmine tinsel]

it’s better than the #700th “can you guys plz help me hack my friend’s roblox” message

[trail sequoia]

i love those messages

[rapid merlin]

"my gf blocked me on instagram help"

[carmine tinsel]

they bring a smile to my face whenever I see them

[stoic quarry]

It's always funny seeing someone very clearly wanting to hack instagram but trying to be sly

[rapid merlin]

If your gf blocks you on instagram, shes not your girlfriend anymore and probably never was

[stoic quarry]

'My parasocial gf blocked me'

Other way around but still

[eternal timber]

Actually too tired to study today

Think I’ll watch smth instead

[stoic quarry]

Fair enough

[trail sequoia]

you could watch smth still about cybersec maybe

less heavy than studying

[carmine tinsel]

You earned your right to watch dumb shit

[heady ginkgo]

i wanna get yalls opinion on this. Should i watch the videos for the rooms and not take notes and just go through rooms fast or really sit down and digest the rooms and take notes

[stoic quarry]

Also some days you deserve to just chill out

[heady ginkgo]

cause i feel like i should be taking notes

[carmine tinsel]

Digest rooms

[stoic quarry]

I mean, kinda answer your own question there

[upper knoll]

notes always notes

[stoic quarry]

Better to learn and understand concepts than get points

[heady ginkgo]

okay gotcha. Just was curious

[stoic quarry]

Points don't matter lol

[trail sequoia]

digest definetly

[carmine tinsel]

The whole point of thm is learning

[heady ginkgo]

thought so

ive been taking notes on HTTP for like 2 hrs now

[carmine tinsel]

Points are there to motivate you to learn not the other way around, that’s why I don’t like point farming all that much

[stoic quarry]

Some times it's good to just leave it for a day or two before going back through it

[heady ginkgo]

the notes or room

[carmine tinsel]

it’s ok to swap to another room if ur bored

[stoic quarry]

Both

[carmine tinsel]

I have like 30 rooms in progress 🤣🤣🤣

[heady ginkgo]

i feel like im grasping HTTP well. But never hurts to review

[stoic quarry]

If you're not wrapping your head around a concept, going at it for another two hours isn't going to fix that. It's fine to take a break and relax

[rapid merlin]

[dark frost]

I did learn something , so it's must been existent

[dark frost]

About quantum cryptography , and real rondom key generators

[eternal timber]

I see. That sounds cool

[dark frost]

And how it's used in real world transmission

[wooden totem]

(I'm assuming you meant quantum physics)

[upper knoll]

not too bad just doing a windows room on thm!

[eternal timber]

Man, I'm addicted to studying. Tried watching a show and opened a book before I knew it

[rapid merlin]

Have you guys got into QKD yet?

[dark frost]

It was a conference about the applications in real world

[wooden totem]

[eternal timber]

(I am going insane)

[wooden totem]

[final gyro]

[rapid merlin]

All of their tails are wagging 😍

[eternal timber]

I just hit backspace to rewind a vid. My brain is fried

[fringe relic]

The pure fact that it is possible is amazing though, let's be honest

[final gyro]

found my old account, it was Gappy and not G4ppy, it's my "new" account

[eternal timber]

It is. I just dissociated for a bit

[rapid merlin]

Crazy fact; Indoor only domesticated cats didn't even exist over 100 years ago.

[eternal timber]

[rapid merlin]

Log into your account and remove the other one.

@wanton cave unsolicited friend requests are prohibited

[rapid merlin]

If you loss your password then you need to manage your passwords better. Thats an important thing when it come to cybersecurity.

[mossy river]

Yes, are you looking to unlink the account you're messaging on?

[final gyro]

When i'm in my thm account settings, there's no "button" to unlink my discord

[sick lance]

Which account do you want on this account?

[final gyro]

Ok, this account is linked to an old thm account that i just deleted, and my only remaining thm account is linked to my alt discord account, is there anyway to unlink my alt to link this one ?

[final gyro]

G4ppy, i deleted Gappy

[mossy river]

You have been unlinked, you can verify again:)

[final gyro]

My discord account is unlinked, but my thm account is still linked to my discord alt

[mossy river]

Oh right

Do you have the discord id or can ping it here?

[final gyro]

i'll send my alt id

Good man Jabba.

[ancient mirage]

guys, is Caido legit? and is it better than Burp Suite?

[upper knoll]

it is stronger than the community edition in a lot of ways

as it doesnt have rate limiting on its attacking side

althought bro burp still has its uses

[upper knoll]

@mossy river possible malcious link in their bio

[ancient mirage]

tomorrow i have to do 5 rooms of burp suite, should i do afterwards some practicing in caido aswell since they're similar? or i should focus on burp suite?

[upper knoll]

both have their use cases

its worth learning burp but caido is also useful

[mossy river]

One moment

[mossy river]

Doesn't lead anywhere

[upper knoll]

okay ❤️

[carmine tinsel]

how burp suite feels when charging $450 for premium 🤪

If I get 8 streak but loose it, do i keep the access ?

I think until the network expires yeah

good night guys! harvest now, decrypt later! 😂

[devout palm]

It is actually fun

I am having fun doing AD exploitation.

[upper minnow]

check for versions n stuff so you can search on exploit.db for easy root
check for sudo privileges
check for suids
check for capabilities that r kinda like suid
check for crontab stuff so you can make it autorun
check path and scripts related to path
do smth with NFS that i didnt really understand

[eternal timber]

Is that a fedora in your pfp

[oak marsh]

hm, I see, make a program thats higher than you increase your level?

[upper minnow]

its supposed to be a pan

[sand trench]

check libraries of scripts

[upper minnow]

i should change profile pics

[sand trench]

sometimes you get write access to services or sockets

sometimes you get write access to timers

[crude stump]

Sorry but that doesn’t look like a pan

[timber galleon]

i got a question

[sand trench]

learn exotic robotics protocols

[eternal timber]

Looks like a fedora

[upper minnow]

its cos the pan handle is cut out

[sand trench]

okay

[timber galleon]

about try hack me

[eternal timber]

how commanding

[crude stump]

Of course

[timber galleon]

does thm have any labs focusing on ceh practical?

[crude stump]

It ain’t all roses and rainbows in here ya feel me

[sand trench]

not specifically but a lot of the learning paths goes through topics common on certs

[timber galleon]

yes which ones do u reccomend

[sand trench]

oh boy another person asks shadow for their path recommendations :D

[eternal timber]

gang gang

[sand trench]

If you want shadows recommendations it is in this order

it is in the pins of this channel

[oak marsh]

[timber galleon]

i already done most of these

im preparing for my oscp+ aswell currently

[sand trench]

well if you have done the majority of all those paths you are probably decently ready

just maybe need to touch up on report writing

[timber galleon]

yeah i already pen test

the problem i have i dont regularly pen test mobile platforms

or use steganography

[sand trench]

stagnography is not very common in pen testing and red teaming

except for maybe data exfiltration

[timber galleon]

exactly

[sand trench]

sooo you probably don't need it for oscp+

[timber galleon]

yeah, ceh practical requires you to know these

[sand trench]

stupid enter key being to close to the single quotes

why are you going after ceh specifically???

[timber galleon]

boss paid for it, not gonna waste it

[sand trench]

it has a general bad reputation here for not really landing you any jobs outside of about 1 or 2 countries

[upper minnow]

i couldnt stop seeing the fedora so i changed to nother friends drawing

[timber galleon]

dont really care bout the job, as i mostly do network side of penetration testing.

[rapid merlin]

Who wins more often, blue team or red team? (on average, roughly)

[stoic quarry]

Don't know if 'win' is really a thing

maybe winning is the friends we made along the way

[stoic quarry]

Too true

[noble chasm]

i just like making frens

[eternal timber]

what is love

[noble chasm]

baby dont hurt me

[rapid merlin]

I mean, hackers will always have something to hack and security guys will always have something to secure. Never ending toxic relationship.

[upper minnow]

what qualifies as a win?

[rapid merlin]

I should have said succeed rather than win.

[eternal timber]

if you flip the second c and d

[upper minnow]

is it a red team loss everytime some random person tries hacking smth and fails

[eternal timber]

lmao

[stoic quarry]

True, then blue team is quite a few points up

[sick lance]

Blue need to get it correct 100%

Hackers just need to get lucky once.

[rapid merlin]

Great way to looking at it.

Security guys are hackers also though.

[sick lance]

Not appropriate.

i will dm you

[jolly aspen]

Do you know the name? Being the first depends on the pathway. Have you done “web application basics”?

[eternal timber]

accepted

[heady ginkgo]

one sec

[jolly aspen]

Ah ok. That’s “http in detail”, there is a lot in that room that you’ll get to practice in lots of other rooms. Like url strings, error codes etc

[heady ginkgo]

HTTP in detail

[rapid merlin]

If hypertext is one word, why do they abbreviate HTML and HTTP instead of HML and HTP 😛

[jolly aspen]

Try the “web application basics”, there will be some overlap and new stuff

[stoic quarry]

Hyper-text

[jolly aspen]

Sometimes abbreviations use two letters from a non hyphenated word too

[stoic quarry]

Good heavens

Proves me wrong

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, probably also help with all the other acronyms out there in the word to keep us getting them all confused

[heady ginkgo]

gotcha. Was i right in my assumption though? they just wanted me to put it in the parameter?

[iron pivot]

Helllooo a question is there anyone who knows where I can get a undergraduate for 1 yr online

[jolly aspen]

Also, etymology of the word - it may not have always been one word but became one as it was more popularly used

Are you an english major?

My goodness brother.

Very cool.

[stoic quarry]

If it's connected to the internet and you can keep pinging it, just DoS it and give man a headache with a hot brain

[wooden totem]

That's what the cyberpunk implants are for

[trail sequoia]

i think someone would go crazy not just an headache if their chip gets a DoS attack

[eternal timber]

That reminds me

[stoic quarry]

Doubt a chip would be able to do that but we'll see what happens I guess

[eternal timber]

I need to get a refill

[trail sequoia]

I hope they won’t be able 😅

[rapid merlin]

I quit doubting things that's technology related. We advance too fast.

[trail sequoia]

But i saw the other day another neuralink installation and it was working really well so i guess we’ll also get microchips commercially eventually

[stoic quarry]

If a brain isn't sending/receiving electrical signals well, I could see an implant assisting there. I don't see how it's possible that it could make me speak French by installing a language pack

[rapid merlin]

Moore's Law and all.

[stoic quarry]

Do you got a source on the ol neuralink one?

[jolly aspen]

I hope it comes with EMP shielding

[heady ginkgo]

@jolly aspen sorry for all the messages. link wouldent send right

[trail sequoia]

nah i saw it on tiktok sadly and i don’t have the link

[stoic quarry]

Oh

So

Lol

Don't think I'd call that a reputable news source

[eternal timber]

The law is starting to die

[trail sequoia]

me neither even if i watch tiktok all day 😅

[stoic quarry]

Gotta vary your news sources bro

[rapid merlin]

I disagree, but that's just my opinion.

Also Moore's second law.

aka Rock's Law.

[stoic quarry]

🫣

[rapid merlin]

It's entirely subjective.

[stoic quarry]

Is it? That seems pretty objective to me

[eternal timber]

How is it subjective

It’s an objective reality

[trail sequoia]

It’s def objective

[rapid merlin]

PatGelsinger says otherwise.

aka CEO of Intel.

[stoic quarry]

The guy who sells microprocessors?

[thorn scaffold]

this looks like a reddit discussion

[stoic quarry]

Seems like an unbiased opinion

[open lake]

Former

[trail sequoia]

marketing

saying something like moore’s law not dying is sort of a marketing move

[trail sequoia]

as his company’s sells mainly cpus

[stoic quarry]

'Investors please don't listen to them. We're doubling every year!!!'

[stoic quarry]

I just posted that 🥲

[eternal timber]

Yeah, highlighting it for you

[stoic quarry]

It's highlighted in the link I sent 😭

[eternal timber]

Highlighting it to Phreak for you

[thorn scaffold]

are you RiotPhreak

[stoic quarry]

Icy icy

[rapid merlin]

My professor thinks it's slowing down because of the current economy but will definitely pick back up. There's also a chance that we could have a VERY BIG breakthrough soon and cover ground that we loss.

[open lake]

"Ignore the fact we a pushing more into AI than raw processing power! Moores law isnt dead yet"

[stoic quarry]

Another professor at the same place thinks the opposite apparently

[eternal timber]

Do you mean optical semiconductors?

[rapid merlin]

MIT?

[stoic quarry]

Yes

[eternal timber]

Even then, that would kill Moore’s law immediately

[rapid merlin]

Who?

[stoic quarry]

The article I posted literally said that bro

I don't think you read it lol

https://cap.csail.mit.edu/death-moores-law-what-it-means-and-what-might-fill-gap-going-forward#:~:text=THE REALITY: MOORE'S LAW IS,large language models (LLMs).

[rapid merlin]

Ahh didn't see that.

I'll read it real quick, hold up.

[eternal timber]

I literally pinged you with a screenshot after Silas sent it

[stoic quarry]

Lmao just the highlighted section should be fine

[eternal timber]

[rapid merlin]

Good thing it's a theory and everyone has their own opinion. 🙂 You're free to disagree but you can't say I'm wrong and you're right.

[stoic quarry]

Yeah ofc

[trail sequoia]

i also got the same idea as you guys @stoic quarry @eternal timber but he’s right

[rapid merlin]

Nobody is right.

We still need more time to allow this to play-out.

[stoic quarry]

I don't think the exact wording of 'every two years' is correct anymore (I mean, we know it's not) but it's still improving for sure

[sand trench]

oh ey the aoc channels are finally gone

[eternal timber]

I’m not trying to be confrontational but the fact that it took 5 years to double semiconductor components already disproves Moore’s law

[lament tendon]

Jabba's been doing some cleanup work, he gave the higher levels access to the advanced channels as well. ^_^

[eternal timber]

Anyways

[stoic quarry]

Oh, do the new roles have colors yet?

[rapid merlin]

The thing is, it doesn't really go by every two years. "oh 2 years is up, time to reset the timer". It goes by averages over long periods of time, like 10-20 years. @eternal timber

[lament tendon]

No.

[rapid merlin]

We could have a massive breakthrough this year and cover ground from the previous years.

[stoic quarry]

Pain

[rapid merlin]

Color palette generator go

[carmine tinsel]

You’re not helpdesk, you’re a pre pentester 😇

[stoic quarry]

No hate to helpdesk, good place to get a start

[carmine tinsel]

oh yes I mean I’m 100% getting stuck there in the future 🤣

[eternal timber]

Yes, it’s on average but even then it’s unlikely for it preserve since it took more than 2x the average time from 2014-2019 and we already seem to be approaching a size limit. But we’ll see ig

[upper minnow]

isnt there like a physical limit to transistor size before quantum tunneling starts messing things up

[rapid merlin]

Never say unlikely. We have been proven false time and time again.

[eternal timber]

There is. The next step is optical semiconductors

[rapid merlin]

Especially with technology.

[eternal timber]

But after that, I don’t see improvements happening anytime soon

[eternal timber]

Something happening doesn’t make it likely

to have happened

[fringe nacelle]

Another fun topic on THM today

[stoic quarry]

Just talking about semiconductors

How cool are we

[rapid merlin]

What do you mean you dont see improvements happening? We are improving every single day, just not at the rate of Moore's Law(currently).

[lament tendon]

Can someone explain to me why everyone really badly wants to appear Indonesian to the internet? Those are ProtonVPN server usage statistics.

[stoic quarry]

Netflix probably

[eternal timber]

“After that” that being optical semiconductors

[rapid merlin]

Because India is the largest nation in the world.

[lament tendon]

What does that have to do with Indonesia?

[stoic quarry]

I don't think india is being talked about here

[upper minnow]

yea there are 3 other india servers there

[rapid merlin]

I thought he mean India but spelled Indonesia.

[eternal timber]

Nothing but why India too

[stoic quarry]

Lmao

Anyway I'd assume it'd be 99% of the reason why anyone uses a VPN, just for whatever is on x streaming platform

[eternal timber]

Indonesia at 98% capacity

Might just be that it’s smaller

[stoic quarry]

True, they might only have one

[lament tendon]

I suppose? But those are slower "secure core" configs, where you tunnel through two servers in succession.
Which would suck for streaming, I imagine.

[trail sequoia]

btw i don’t think it’s just a factor of how big a country it is, there’s gotta be other reasons like vpns as @stoic quarry said

[lament tendon]

Like, this particular config goes "Client -> Switzerland -> Indonesia".

[lament tendon]

Those are the non-secure config ones.

[rapid merlin]

lolwot

[lament tendon]

There are not that many secure config servers, only like 3 per country, but indonesia is hellishly overused, compared to all the other ones.
