Nothings even touching my legs because I go to bed in my clothes so why do I suddenly get itchy. So weird
Bed bugs bite.
Yes
so foxy
I don’t have bed bugs. I would notice them
you would write a bug report if you saw them
Dun dun dunnnn
Exactly
Bug: Not found
System still corrupt
😆
Help lmao
A mammooooth
Yeah I'm not gonna find out 😂
A hooman bit me once
we need a mamoth mouse emoji.
Not in a nice way
This guy fully tried to take a chunk out of my shoulder
Same
More than once
And I've bitten someone before
Omg cute.
science rocks
This one time was pretty bad
id love to see a mammoth in my life time
🦣 vs 🦊
I don’t like being bitten
[drink water reminder 🔔 ]
imagine they had tusks
Same i imagine it to be very floofy

i doubt a tusk is in the genes, would be counter productive, like glow in the dark mice
I am taking steam RN
Haha that emote
if it works for you
Monster
No. I’ve been bitten a few times that have made me bleed but the one that hurt the most didn’t, it bruised black
No sugar
What are we using that glove for
I dunno why people are so weird man
Oh 😆
who runs a homelab here?
lol, there is a MotU channel?
Can we please make sure comments are SFW.
that is safe, it is not explicit, vague in what that can mean. but okay
I was like 16 at the time
I don't check the news I get my palm checked.

It's vague, it's probably not a good idea to post it,.if it can be deemed as NSFW
Becauseeeeee teenagers scare the living… by my chemical romance.
I loved them too
One of the first bands I liked when I was younger was good Charlotte
i have very fond memories going to the supermarket at 5am with my father from like the age of 5 onwards listening to mcr and green day
You are old just like me
I am 31
Ah these were the days
The good old days
I am a few years younger than you
yes the simple times
You are in your prime
i feel old but im not really
Old
i live with someone who was born 1931
he reminds me im young
I am shooketh
He/she is from no internet era.
No internet, no need for cybersecurity....
anyone who wants to play koth ?
I forget you’re a youngen
5 years younger than you
26
define old?
Can you not do maths?
I just said to my kid am I 31 or 32? Because I actually can’t remember now days
gawd blesss
I also can’t math
guys wht level are u on in HTb
There’s 8 years difference between us
oops THM
Hello guys, I have a question. I think I want to become a pentester. With that in mind, should I follow both career paths - cyber analyst (to learn defensive) and penetration tester (to learn offensive)? Or is the first one kinda waste of time, and I should just focus on the pentester path?
It makes up 😆 I get up to my flat and I’m like WHYS THERE NO LIFT
depending on your background you should start with #start-here
dayum
Might light some incense
#start-here to test 🖊️
is tht ironical T_T
No
I already completed the pre security and introduction to cyber security. Rn im at 14% in soc level 1
Tbh hack the box?
so like u do have a job ? right ?
hehe mb
What is mb ?
depends on how comfortable you are with defence it never hurts to learn how to defend before learning how to attack
mb - megabyte
knowing what the walls look like help scale them
aaahhhh
anyone got recommendations for tape that can be used to be inserted into a stripped screwhole to keep traction???
It’s good
so could i expect to find some super high level security expert in this room
or everyone is just like me T_T
I don't work in the industry I'm here for fun
You are supposed to use a plug (As in a screw plug )
???
dafak
it is in an electronic device not in a wall
whats a visionary
Oh I see so you want a screw to stay within an electronic device
hot glue
yeah wanna screw together this mouse and the folks at ploopy recommended using a bit of tape as shadow probably stripped the screw hole
OH DAMN
I don’t think tape would keep it in there but the glue gun suggestion might work
dunno if we got that and how it would work to be removing it later if shadow ever opoens the mouse age
crtl+z
I spammed keyboard cuz i raged and now my win and alt are switched up
my win is alt and alt is win
idk what i did to do it and idk how to fix it
laptop ? you might have Fn + Something shortcut
Its for creating traction to take the screw out right? thats what I do hot glue or paper. but the screw driver bit must be pretty close to the actual size of the screw
to set that
pc
I do have fn tho yes
no traction to keep the screw in
there might a combination which switches it, you will have to google that
a shortcut
does it depend on my keyboard
could be
okay wait ty bro lets see if chatgpt knows
o.o yeah I would def go to the store and find a good screw for that. If not use tape like they suggested. Sorry this frustrating thing happened
If there something wrong with the hole? What screw are you using to put into the mouse
Cya
metal screw
3d printed plastic chasis of mouse
I suggested not using tape
and still having the issue
i dont think its the keyboard if I un-installed my drivers
on a reddit post
Fn + A, Fn + S, Fn + W (hold for a few seconds), Fn + L, Fn + Space (hold for a few seconds)
Fn + G, Fn + W
Def ugly but a good temp fix
yeah but ploopy.co lead stated to use tape
which ones the swap one lol
the reddit post has a long list actually
Maybe not a screw because it could damage it if it’s 3d printed. I’ll brain storm 🤯
I googled "win and alt swapped"
lots of options, gotta find out which one works for you
kk
Sigh the ploopy mouse is intended to be 3d printed and was 3d printed when shadow recieved it... to put it back together after upgrading the circuit board shadow accidentally stripped the screw hole that is used to hold the right mouse buttons in place and asked the creators for help
they told shadow to use tape to hopefully get enough traction with the metal screw to make it stay inside
Good morning guys🥱
good evening
welp something worked idk which one but ti worked lol ty

central euro detected
thought that was obvious if you read shadows about me :P

but I was actually wrong then
Did you register for the hacking battle event of thm
naaaah
I see so the threads been damaged
of the screw hole yes
of the screw?? nope
Why...?
don't feel up for it
Okay then 👍🏻
Well that sucks because you can’t undo that. I think glue gun glue would hold tension tbh. It’s a lot stronger than it seems. However if you screw the screw in with a power tool you will surely just make a loose hole that won’t hold the screw so your only way is to screw it by hand and don’t over screw it.
Btw I am going to sleep..🥱

That puppy is so cute
Right! and it's wearing pajamas,lol
Omg I just stretched out my leg and heard TWO bones pop
That's a cute puppy too
lol, was it a good pop or a bad pop?
It’s funny when a dogs lip gets caught on its teeths
When I worked at the vets we had a whole hour convo on why were their gums black and no one knew
Reset your router
It’s was a mutual pop
Interesting convo. That's cool you worked at a vet.
I did for a little bit. On my first day directly after being told to be careful with the needles, I stabbed myself with the first needle
I’m so cleaver

you need some extra commands to fully delete the root directory
im back at tryhackme and i need a question asnwered real quick
quick
whats the Kali web VM ssh/root password
kali
i dont know
well i soon need to know how to connet my kail to the thm
tsym for the reply
bebe, it's on the website
they recently implemented it
trying to finish this task on metasploit
but iono the root pwd for the web kali from thm
wheres jabba
@mossy river
i m aa noob here i dont know whats ssh command is
Please ping me if you can help me with this but basically I have a phone that I'm trying to hack into
I forgot the password
'that is for VPN i need for WM

you did not specify what you were doing, i assumed default kali credentials
check out #subs-room-help
Dose kali have tools for that?
I have a wild request 🤣
I didd specify what I was doing
you said help quick
github hhave it
whats the Kali web VM ssh/root password
no access... are there channels I'm missing?
that's literally the most synthetized this question could've been
huh
What should I search for
remote access to other machines
okok
subscribers have help channel
and are you listening to Autechre because I am? thats wird
the same song too... odd !!!
this is a hopeless endeavor for any modern device
ahhh ok
What's WM?
windows machine
war machine?
Oh okay
i just like to take some songs recomendation from other people u dont know when u can find gold
okay den
or whomever is there to help
and why were you look at my profile
I didn't know they leveled 0x4 people
I speedran 0x8 in a week and stopped tryhackme to get jobs irl
worked with cybersecurity and now I am UNEMPLOYED because life is AMAZING
no I love people <0x8
that sounds depressing
it is!!!!
imagine if you met daniel
is he still here
daniel who
daniel was a broski here who had a kilometric resume and never got a job and struggled a lot with it
he knew almost everything about cybersecurity but was too naive for the capitalistic ladder
so he couldnt get many jobs
That sucks
i just cant get a job because i live in a third world country
indeed, it's very sad
me too
but i love my country
make your way into a first world country with elite skills in cybersec and move
that's my plan
my english is pretty gud
my college is pretty bad too
and i took mech. engg
as my major
colleges, universities, etc. don't matter much (but still matter) when it comes to tech employment
just tell companies what skills you have and they will see if you are fitting
im trying to rebuild everything using specific tools now
then, I plan on doing the OSCP and CISSP for fun in the future
placements there are shit and 65% of the student fcking dumb
that's everywhere
@sick lance where do I ask questions again? as subscriber?
i'd love to hit up the OSCP and CISSP
if this next interview goes well i'll snag a job that'll also happily cover the training / cert costs, bwahahaha

unless you are in Somalia then we can't compete mi brudda
u are a man
yes
and he is also a man
lmao I am sorry but this is immediate bs
bro suffering from success
why
yeah?
gay
don't take certs too seriously
Yes.
I’m watching a tutorial on a room and even the guy doesn’t know what to do. This is embarrassing
you just started, don't judge people
never ever judge people in cybersecurity
no one knows anything, it's like advanced mechanics
you can judge me
they are imp if u need job
if you thinki you know then we know you don't
i give you permission
Don’t make a “tutorial” if you don’t know what to do.
Not knowing how to cat an Ubuntu file but doing a tutorial is crazy. I’m even more confused.
lol
even i know that
there's a paradoxical limbo effect on this exact subject which is:
- you get a cert for a small company (the only ones who cares about certs); but the HR doesn't know what they mean
- you get a cert for a big company (they don't care about certs, they care about skills and adaptability)
soon to bed and try to get some sleep and then back to https://tryhackme.com/room/pentestingfundamentals
technology is mysteriously difficult and sometimes goes wrong without much explanation (i.e the attackbox terminal going blank and becoming a text editor on thm). again, don't judge.
so i should focus on my skills first rather than cert
absolutely
I give up
then you can get the certs later just for SWAG points
ok sir or maam whatever
on what
be respectful
on reading
ok maam
me whenever I face a minor inconvenience
i hate reading
Please be respectful
I go by he/him, dear
ok so oppening up a document in linus is done by cat command
ok sir
The walls and walls and walls of text
yes sir
He kept on doing “cat Working From Home Information.txt” and it gave him errors so he paused the tutorial to look it up. I’m like it’s a Ubuntu version, shouldn’t you do more “Working From Home Information.txt?” By the time he figured it out I was already done with the room and got the flag😂🤦🏽♂️
i only engage with tutorials that have a 90 seconds dubstep music intro and is communicated entirely with notepad.exe open on the screen
i knew that but didnt know how to frame it
I just felt like if you are making a tutorial you should cut the 8 min of you saying “I don’t know what to do here, ummm I guess we try again or I can look it up” if I’m watching a tutorial I expect you to know.
What’s crazy is, it’s an enumeration room.
yeah , I agree
dubstep? if it's not brazilian phonk then I'm not paying a second of attention to it (that's my max anyways)
GUI can be good when u dont understand what is going on in GLI
it's part of the whole thing, you are learning with someone else and that's cool, straightfoward tutorials can also be paradoxically misleading by presuming the viewer already knows x, y and z of things
“Network services” even the YouTube comments said “it’s either the room is poorly written or this is poorly explained”
True too. It’s multiple ways to get to an answer.
yes, so, not every tutorial will work, not every viewer will follow
hi everyone , I been in THM for a while now , I feel I'm getting really good at linux stuff, but when it comes to windows I'm missing a lot of skills , any room recommendation to get better in windows ?
love u man nice talking with u , meet you on the other side
I had a PhD professor in CompSci who had to postpone a class because he couldn't config PyCharm
it took me 6 months of university studies to learn Python
then I sat down with that famous guy on Youtube for 12 hours and learned Machine Learning on Python, from the 0 of Python to ML
i hit up a beginner room on htb who's provided tooling in the attacking vm was inherently incompatible with the target machine, and debugging that issue proved far more interesting than the actual, intended room challenge
you can gain knowledge and experience everywhere, even if that knowledge is filtering through and judging youtube tutorials of topics you think you're better informed on
still think every tutorial should begin with a dubstep intro though
I hope I am not being stupid by saying this, but have you tried Windows Fundamentals?
my uni is the most prestigious private uni in latin america too
it just goes to show...
I didn't know about them just looked them up , thank you

PhDs are all awful coders, as has been told to me by friends with PhDs
I don't know man, there's something about computers that just doesn't make sense
I legit think computers were made by aliens
like Alan Turing received a visit one day and was like yeah lets burn sand until it forms perfectly geometrical codified symbols that would later turn into a CPU
and that's my excuse when any of my codes go wrong
my favorite computer is still the experiment that taught crabs to behave with basic logic operations, NOT, AND, OR, etc, and made an incredibly simple if chaotic computer
sadly you need a lot of crabs before you can play doom
I want a paraconsistent logical crab
I thought about this before, we are just exoskeletons for an organ on the top of our heads
from the science setup with the logic crabs, lmao
where do I go to fix a room @mossy river
One day I hope to meet 0Day. But ofc on the good side.
he's chill
Just leveled

my obsidian notes look like a warzone, i really need to figure out an actual organization strategy
i've started tagging and linking things, found it useful to have a big list per tool of useful commands, and then link to those codeblocks from other pages and lab rundowns, just need to build an actual hierarchy and get a bit more consistent
are there any plugins you'd suggest to help with pentest notes and the like? the default tables are... kind of irritating
also like half my notes are over on notion because i wanted to give the various note apps a decent rundown before commiting to one :D yay
i don't want to stray too far from just baseline obsidian, but there are areas that could do with.. something
like tables
hate the default tables
the biggest problem i've had with obsidian was syncing notes between devices, and suddenly all of my notes on powershell driven privilege escalation got flagged by the windows anti-virus and quarantined
so rude
i just use text files for note taking, plus it's a private github repo. I will never lose my files. my files are just text files so i am not relying on any proprietary app. I get better at markdown + my github looks like i work very hard 😄
if notion goes bankrupt tomorrow or decides to take a feature out, you will be screwed.)
that is the part i like most about obsidian, it's literally just markdown
so even without the app it's still easy to navigate and utilize
i could even write like an 8 like bash script that'd be able to pull out the tags and re-link stuff
yeah in that case it's OP
i used to take my notes in confluence then i watched a video about a guy saying all these tools come and go. and i realized all my notes are in some kind of binary format that I don't have full control over.
at that point what is the use of obsidian. i just view my markdowns from vscode. i usually don't even view them as anything but in the editing mode.
:There is an exploit.
:There is a Metasploit playload
graphs things nicely, lets you reference sections of notes from other notes, has all sorts of plugins to expand on existing functionality if you really want it, like templators and the like
main point is that the actual end format is all just markdown
it's not quite as extreme as "why use vim when you've got ed, if it's all just text at the end of the day", but it's a nice tool / viewer if nothing else, ha
makes sense

omgod so cute
Hes eating the BROCCoLi!!
@molten sky how are you?
tired af actually, lol
hi @vale olive 
turns out the hours of scanner bs i was experiencing yesterday was bc every single cable i tried was broken. finally came across one that worked. it wasn't the computer.
so much time spent on diag
that's why you always start for the more simple, if cables are involved that's what you taste first 🙂
yal guys think i should just go straight to the missions on the website or i complete the basics study path thingy
fyi am talkin abt pentesting
if I try 2 and don't work I'll go to another device to try those to just to be sure. Sometimes I love hardware more than software 🙂
it's never bad idea to go through the basics to make sure you have those foundations hammer down, you can't build a durable structure on shaky ground 🙂
If I want to learn enumeration where is the best place I can go?
I like enumerating and looking at files in a system and getting a private key. I just don’t know where I can do it again at
duck tape can
a lot of it
my table is made of 70% duck tape 30% wood
if that's your idea, go for it, but also that will define the kind of cybersec "professional" you're going to be, meaning the guy who take shortcuts and never is the reference for anything but what not to do.

that uses duck tape
chenanah ding ding ding ding
im listening to music and i cant help but shake my yams rn
must be pretty good song then
what is it
check rooms about enumeration, I think there are a at least one or two in the complete beginners path

What’s a good website for cyber security games? Someone gave me one called bandit something. It had a cat on the front picture
vuln hub has some vuln machines you can setup and configure yourself. more hands if your feeling hands on
you have one clue already use google to find it, that's what a cybersec would do, research. No shame on asking but with you compare your work, but not to just give me the answer 🙂
i think so i somewhat crashed tryhackme attack box
it wasnt allowing me to access root directory
this is in linux fundamentals1
but now i m in root directory
where folder3?
/ is root directory. ~ is home directory
in previous commands i tried doin
cd //
cd ..
do cd /home/youruser
you don't have access to the root directory because you're not root judging by the ¨$¨ sign
what is $ used for
for users that are not root,
what do u mean by tha
t
can u explain it a bit
pro tip: swap $ and # on your computer to confuse the hackers
im curious Is it a torrent a virus or a , hack if it is a hack, why is there torrent websites? also do hackers or cyber sec use them?
think i had a stroke reading that, but if i understood it correctly (eventually), no, a torrent is just a file type and/or transmission method
a torrent? bro google torrent
what is to explain? you asked me what the "$" stand for a and I answer, if you tell me what part of the answer you didn't understand I can elaborate
will do 👍
sorry that was rude. a torrent is a link to a downloadable file. thats it.
|| i don't think he knows what root is ||
ohhhhh ok i see thanks btw i could of swore i heard something that sounded simialr about in name about being bad or something?
Gave +1 Rep to @static acorn (current: #671 - 8)
for users that are not root,
sed
he's doing linux fundamentals, and that's pretty fundamental so he should know 😂
its used to pirate software and stuff illegally sometimes. but its not like bad itself
the problem stems from the fact people are often trying to illegally download software/media and turn to torrents, without having any common sense, running any piece of software they download from untrusted sources
if i send you a file right now, you have no idea who i am --- why would you run it?
that's essentially what happens
root is one kind of user, if you're not that kind of user, you are any other user, usually easily recognizable by the sign "$" on the prompt
ahhh ok
makes since
i wonder if the FBI sends out top secret hackers to get info on them
on the bad actors or the downloaders?
they are called pentesters. and its real and yes. its a job that you can do
root is admin of that machinee
just graduated kindergarten
if your curious about hacking or intrested. feel free to add me. ill talk your ear off
indeed, but you're not log as root
okok
MAD -Caravan Palace is another BANGER
that one makes my yams buss it down
you could also be thinking of rootkits?
I just had a nightmare about me hacking
if i listen to anymore my yams will do kaka
bro got got by the feds
he was forced to code in Cs
and Java


dont you mean:
Echo Reply (ICMP Type 0)
😭
me and bobs nework is broken
i would but idk me not know this
im just teasing you.
guess what man
I listened to the MAD - Caravan Palace
😼
guess what happened
i just wanted to ask
WELLL
i made kaka
AYOOOOOOO
yams overload
what to do after we get connected to the open vpn
literal yam jamed
bruh you made me wait for that 💀
es
lmao
worth
im adding a rule to my firewall to block your ip after that one
its like the reveal of my reliefing
no more icmp packets for you
no no no lisnte
chat is chatin
Failed: No route to host
GIIIIRRRR
how do u turn this thing off and on
ok so should i launch my vm will they work like the attack box in thm
you technically could use a VPN since my firewall rule only blocks ip
😉
i cant get one thing how can my vm access the files on that of attackbox
┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ)
ah analogue visitation is blocked therefore I go physical visitation
most of the rooms required thm machines, that's the whole point of the site 😂 what you can replace is the attackbox for your own vm
attack box lol
attack box 🙂
Attack box is nice ngl
wait let me try
ngl that hack affnitybattle sound awsome but im on the cyber sec 101 ;o;

bruh all this hacking stuff looks call as freak
that looks to be an example. not the actual ip,
yess
nah just thought that i could access the machines content through my vm
good call enum
its an example in linux fundamental2
it only works in thm machine
of that particuar room
so how can i access it



ubuntu machine so particular
i know that stuff
but i didnt conect my vpn
wait let me try it again
sudo openvpn <yourvpnfile>.ovpn
okok

Then navigate to 10.10.10.10 to see if your connected
ping 10.10.10.10
That too
it worked thanks for the help @rapid merlin

bro i need to get back to my studies cuz comedy isnt getting me off the streets thats for sure
what y'all getting into tn?
im almost done with my networking essentials
it's so easy in practice but so incomprehensible during study 💀💀
me to
its not too bad. i take my studies SUPER slow. and make sure i take notes on everything before i move on. so, i usually write down the answer before it even asks me a question lol
i take another approach
that's what i do in school but i feel like bc i see all the things to learn on thm and htb, it makes me need to speedrun it all lmao
i try to understand all the stuff first then
i move on
i dont usually take notes
and revise the rooms
cant tell if its the worst way to revise
its hard not to grind only for the rep. this is true. i have to slow myself down occasionally because i just do it for the clout smh
i totally get it
can u send a pic of ur notes u did
i just want to see how you guys take notes
you dont wannna see my hand writing
i started doing that
send me
yeah tbh i kinda want to make another account just to get a clean ranking based on going thru pentest rooms and not from study rooms
mine's worse
pretty sure you can reset progress
can you not?
i can bet
you can
I do a combination of writing down the important stuff, and i'll also use notebookLM to generate audio podcasts of the material I'm learning. It helped so much with my CCNA and network configuration classes

Assuming that the router has infinite processing power, approximately speaking, how many thousand simultaneous TCP connections can it maintain?
is a wild question to ask me.
i was like IDK
about 65000 right?
yes lol
same as the amount of ports
can u explain
good job
no 65536 is correct ans
well yes but it was 65 because it requested a number of thousands
honestly no lmao. I don't know in detail how it works but I know it uses the ports to segregate private vs public IP connections
at least i think that's how it works?
probably should know this, I have a jr network admin interview tmrw 💀
back to networking 101 with you bucko
🤓
i also thought that 65k is the correct ans but didnt knew the reason to support it
And since there are only 65535 TCP ports, it means that a server cannot have more than that amount of concurrent connections .
🤓☝️
but that's what load balancing is for 🤓 ☝️
erm
load balencing is multiple servers. not just 1
it help the server to balance out the traffic
do u think using ai to help me with understanding some topic in cybersec good
the question originally was how many thousand simultaneous TCP connections can it maintain? so we can assume we wer talking about a single server
sometimes. I personally like notebooklm from google to make the podcasts I was talking about earlier. it only uses the material you give it to build from, so it doesn't do too much hallucinating
ye i get that, i meant in real world application
ok i sometimes use chatgpt
when i see 'notebooklm' i think of 'notebook goblin'
lol
but i m always paranoid that it is tell me something wrong
i use it a lot too, but not for in depth topics tbh
unless i phrase it with "search online for..."
ok i only tell her to tell me something in an easy and digestable way
what's the difference
real
guys im hacking into the main frame! Decrypting shell key! Forwarding network staffic. Accessing Network! 
hits 'break' key. HACKERMAN!
how did u type like that
```` ```
three back ticks in front of what you type` and threee when your finished
like this
''' like this
you only need one for this

wat
dang you got him with the cisco protocols too!
smh back to networking realm with you jimbo!
They got me first
tbh the position just talks about AD and SQL dbs lmao
i have no idea what those cisco protocols are
Time for another overnight cram sesh

If you want a quick one, go look at "Professor Messer's Network+" crash course
its on yt
love that guy, he's the homie
been doing jeremy's IT lab for the ccna cert tho
id invite him to the family dinner for sure
him and network chuck
cisco wizards
that guy is the best one I could find as a beginner, Jeremy got depth although its alot better to approach when you know the basics
i feel like network chuck knows more and can teach more than he does tbh
Ignoring how crappy my skill matrix is, it kinda looks like hello kitty's bow
i like network chuck. he makes it very engaging and his passion for it shines
i mean I've set up self hosted websites and configured DNS, as well as doing some microsoft server labs and packet tracer labs in college
u dont wanna see mine 💀
Now you're making me curious
rn i'm working on bypassing vultr's port 25 outbound traffic firewall
for a self hosted mail server
you gonna need a microscope
Hahaha
thats pretty good tbh, just know that you will def need routing protocols and their differences even if its a jr role you goin for
wut da hell
ive only been doing my fundementals to be fair
im struggling through the privesc module xD
thats why my level is so high with nothinf to show
OOOO i can help!
tbh i've probably already studied it and forgot it
boutta use that google-fu
priv esc seems very interesting so far :3
using linPeas and winPeas is all Ik...
priv esc makes me throw it in a circle. and by it i mean. my monitor
they made it so small goddamn....
oh thank god you clarified your monitor
i had to stop using linpeas because it stopped me from understanding the whole concept
that's what she said 😉 😂
tbh im kind of a tool hater
sup rex
we all wanna be pentesters huh
why y'all got such big graphs
I did start that priv esc using my own exploits, had to stop cuz was more focused on Threat Hunt and Coding
Networking pop quiz TIME:
I want to find another host's hardware (MAC) address on the network. Which protocol lets me get this information?
I'm a no life with a thm addiction
carp
CORRECT 20 cookies for you
that would be arp right
arp is correct
Next:I want to obtain an IP address to use and communicate with the other hosts on the network. What should I use?
dhcp usually
no, you find a carp below an abandoned jade bridge and it tells you the "MAC"
CORRECT
dhcp is the correct protocol
NEXT:We need to give 25 devices Internet access; however, we only have one public IP address. What can we use to allow multiple private IP addresses to use a single public IP address?
NAT
CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!
LAST ONE:I want to confirm that I can exchange packets with another host as if I am playing 'ping pong'. Which protocol supports this?
tcmp
ICMP
icmp**
GOD TIER!
ping pong 🏓
great work hackers
I'd break out and say IGMP
nmap for everything
what wizardry is this
-oS i think
😮
it makes me cackle and i can't be mad at it for that
because they spend much time on thm 😂
bro there are some people who are lower level than me and they have a better skills matrix than me
😭
thats crazy
It's cuz they just boost their points with ctfs
im about to boost our friendship with a hug if you dont stop snitching
if your rooms are mostly fundamental it probably wont alter your skill matrix all that much
i know lol. im just troolling
I am boreeeeed
AMEN
Waiting for my taxi
well no one's making you do more tcp rooms xd
im making me
My taxi is in 40 minutes
is the taxi to the airport?
ive been at work for like 3 hours and i forgot i had a breakfast sandwich in my jacket pocket. and my coworker watched in horror as i materialized a breakfast sandwich out of thin air
No, customer

i shared food with my coworkers today cause 1) i definitely made too much cause I didn't see the recipe portion until after i started cooking and 2) definitely tryna bag one ngl
homemade lo mein smacks tho tbh
aint no way
Yeah, quick 2 hour testing today, and then I got a couple of things to fix over the weekend and then 4 hour test on Monday

busy, busy, busy 🙂
