general

[rapid merlin]

i mean in overall hacking and the scene

[plucky sleet]

what did the wise chatgpt tell you with those specs?, he will probably ask you what you want to do with it

[swift quail]

why

[vestal bone]

Chatgpt is shit when it comes to that, he just recommends the best things on the market lol

[swift quail]

yall hatin on AI but it's smarter than all of us

guaranteed

[plucky sleet]

i dont currently work in cybersec, but pretty sure that "hacking" or pentesting or red team in general gets more dificult to get in than soc o blue team

[rapid merlin]

i really like red team and offensive

[static perch]

Basically Yeah but if you are just starting and learning and don't care about job in near future then go on. Cybersec is really interesting.

[rapid merlin]

even tho idk shit about it

[rapid merlin]

im gonna do it either way just wanna know i can survive with it

[static perch]

Everyone likes it but not all can get into

[leaden shale]

hey shadow hru

[static perch]

You'll love it if you've passion to learn.

[rapid merlin]

so what does it require ?

real high skill ?

[rapid merlin]

yea hopefully the fire wont die

[tight trout]

def smarter than THM general chat 😭

[rapid merlin]

what do you do tho mate

[swift quail]

talk

[plucky sleet]

study the comptia a+ content, it gives you a grasp of basic IT

that would be my suggestion

[static perch]

Look for a job rn 😅

[rapid merlin]

oh best of luck man

[rapid merlin]

whats that

[rapid merlin]

also i am getting into college i have 2 options to get AI&DS and another is dual degree in IT

[safe oxide]

Time for waifu tanks to go brrrrrr

[boreal scarab]

BRRRRRRT

[plucky sleet]

CompTia A+ is a certification of basic level IT.
its basically a certification exam you can pay to do and they basically give you a card that "certifies" your knowledge in basic IT (networks, computer troubleshooting, etc)

[safe oxide]

[plucky sleet]

but you dont need to pay and do the exam, you can just study its contents

[rapid merlin]

oh ok thanks man i ll look into it

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @plucky sleet (current: #2907 - 1)

[rapid merlin]

can yall help me in this too pls

[plucky sleet]

if you want hacking, it all starts with IT

[rapid merlin]

so i should get into dual degree IT ?

[plucky sleet]

for sure

[rapid merlin]

thanks man

[plucky sleet]

if you are gonna do that in the near future, dont even bother with the compTia a+

just start doing the tryhackme career paths

[rapid merlin]

yea i did the intro in tryhackme offensive secturity today

and my classmate adviced to do the toutorial of cheat engine to get a feel of hacking n stuff

[plucky sleet]

cheat engine is not really hacking tho

its just changing values in the programs archives

i mean, its "hacking" by definition, but i wouldnt say thats really something you study for pentesting

[rapid merlin]

he just said to some terms which overlap so he said i can handle it will be alright ~ my classmate is no hacker just knows a bit more bout coding n stuff than me

[fleet shoal]

wsp

[plucky sleet]

i would focus more on understanding fundamentals than using cheatengine, but im no expert on the field

Is Jr Penetration Testing really worth the time? I have an intern in 2 weeks and during these 2 weeks, I want to improve my knowledge about cybersecurity. Ive already completed 2 beginner courses. Now I want to gain experience with Linux tools and the offensive side.
I also thought to directly start solving difficult CTFs but maybe this course would be a better starting point. What you think guys? Which path should I do?

[graceful knot]

@hasty sand do you have any time free to talk one minute i got some questions, im looking for help

[safe oxide]

👀

[narrow bone]

Whats your background and what do you want to achieve at the end? The Jr Penetration Testing path is fun 🙂

[autumn thunder]

guys i wanted to try kali linux on mobile and went to the official page, my device is redmi 12C so basicall it's name is not on the list or at least i didn't see the name. so my question is does that imply i would not be able to run kali linux in that device or did i read the list wrong

[gusty inlet]

You mean Kali Nethunter?

[autumn thunder]

sorry yeah kali nethunter

[gusty inlet]

If your device is not on the provided lists it means that it's either not going to work or that it will work but since it is not supported you might get a broken / unstable version and will probably end up bricking the phone.

[autumn thunder]

ah i see thx for the heads up

[lone spruce]

i need some help i cant get my openvpn to connect to the website it working perfectly fine on my end but the website thing where it says access machine staying red and not connecting

i tried making sure i only have one openvpn running pretty sure i only have none running and it still not connecting

[gusty inlet]

The page is bugged, ignore it.

[lone spruce]

oh?

[gusty inlet]

If you see an IP on the top right on your Kali, you're good.

[lone spruce]

so if im connected im good?

okay thanks boss

i heard something about you should use vm to connect to a room/box or ctf like thing for security is this true?

and not ur host machine?

[carmine stream]

Im not 100% how secure there internal network is for the labs but in certain cases you could be on the same network as other players. I personally use a vpn

[lone spruce]

what if im just doing solo rooms

with just myself?

i should be fine right

[gusty inlet]

You're in a hacker playground, why take the risk?

[carmine stream]

That part

[lone spruce]

i assume this place has good security because it a hacker playground?

[carmine stream]

I wouldnt go that far

[lone spruce]

mhm fair

[half badge]

Guys how's it called if I want to study how bits and bytes are sent like, packets, headers. From my keyboard to the computer hardware not necessarily over the network (HTTP headers etc)

[gusty inlet]

I mean even Microsoft keeps getting hacked so....

[lone spruce]

what vm should i use and what a good lightweight distro i can use?

[gusty inlet]

[lone spruce]

microsoft stupid tho

lmfao

[gusty inlet]

Kali Linux for CTFs or Arch...

[carmine stream]

KALI LINUX

[sand trench]

if you have the skills to notice anyone messing with your host machine or vm while hacking on tryhackme and record the ip and then report it the user responsible is banned relatively quickly

[lone spruce]

doesnt kali have bloat ware?

[gusty inlet]

Parrot maybe.

[lone spruce]

and a bunch of hacking tools?

[carmine stream]

I PERSONALLY USE VIRTUALBOX THO IT kinda sucks

whoops

caps lock

[gusty inlet]

Yes, so basically all you need.

[lone spruce]

nah i wanna set it up myself

so arch would be the best choice?

[sand trench]

but yeah if you wanna use your host to hack on tryhackme you can do so but be aware there is a very minor risk of you getting hacked through it

[carmine stream]

arch :3

[lone spruce]

or parrot idk what parrot is

is it gonna be a pain in the ass to setup tho?

[half badge]

Does shadow know? 🙂

[sand trench]

parrot is basically hack the box:s version of kali

[lone spruce]

all i want is burpsuite and some basic terminal stuff

like nmap

net tools

anything else i might need terminal wise

[sand trench]

well arch works well enough for hacking if you also get an arch user respoitory/aur helper

as then you basically have tools under the sun

to pick and choose from

[half badge]

🙂

[lone spruce]

yea i dont want tools predownloaded

i just want it as lightweight as possible

[sand trench]

yeah you gotta install everything yourself in arch

[lone spruce]

then i can download my own stuff

ok

coolio sounds like arch will work

what vm software stuff should i use?

[sand trench]

vmware or virtualbox

[lone spruce]

mhm

[sand trench]

they are about equal

[lone spruce]

which is easier to setup?

[sand trench]

last shadow messed with it shadow found virtualbox easier to setup
but vmware had a bit of higher performance with the vm after setup

[lone spruce]

why are you talkin in third person?

[sand trench]

old habit that never died

[lone spruce]

cool

make u interesting

👍

[half badge]

@sand trench does shadow know? 🙂 sorry for pinging and annoying

[lone spruce]

thanks for the advice ill try virtual box then

[half badge]

If you don't want to answer just say it. I know it's a bad question 🙂

[sand trench]

data transmission protocols

[half badge]

So that's like offline too?

[sand trench]

probably

well bluetooth is offline but still transmits data over the air

[swift quail]

You have to think outside the box

there is a lot of restrictions placed on AI

[loud marlin]

❤️

[eager maple]

like what type of restrictions?

[swift quail]

Like if you say "How do you make meth"
It will never answer that

as the developers hard wired it not to

[hushed notch]

ah my name didn't match

[swift quail]

"soft wired" in this case

[hushed notch]

acidapex -> setuprepairllc

but if i say/how do bad people make meth it will answer

i started over from scratch to fill in any gaps for these certs

guys, is 6% on tryhackme profile considered good?

[loud marlin]

the % is just that. any is good. keep learning

[storm ravine]

I mean is 6% considered professional so I should post abt it on linkedin or not?

[chilly veldt]

never post about it tbh

[gusty inlet]

You can post about it but to be totally honest with you, % on THM are not considered impressive objectively speaking.

[storm ravine]

hmm

alright thanks guys

[chilly veldt]

post about a win, not a "I am amongst top x%"

[gusty inlet]

A lot of people will put "Top 1% on THM" as their linkedin profile title - but to be fair it's so easy to get and doesn't demonstrate anything.

[storm ravine]

I thought it's considered an achievement

[cursive pecan]

hi chads

[storm ravine]

yeah I thought so

[chilly veldt]

not really, more shows how much time you have spent on the website at most

[gusty inlet]

Correct. At most.

[sand trench]

shadow is top 1% of people stubbing their toes in sweden

[chilly veldt]

talk about a writeup you have made for one of the rooms instead

[loud marlin]

listen to this one. this one is smart 🙂

[storm ravine]

alright thanks guys

[chilly veldt]

you're welcome, talking about writeups is especially good, cause then future employers can see your thought process

[storm ravine]

yes of course

[modest charm]

I dont even work with security, this is a hobby and im 1%

so, there you go.. im a proof this does not matter

[gusty inlet]

You not working for security doesn't change the fact that it does not matter.
Unless I misunderstood your message, what you are saying is: Even people who don't work with/for security can get 1%. Which is true, but why bash yourself?

[modest charm]

that is kinda what I mean.. the % does not matter for a professional view, like to show as an accomplishment

[gusty inlet]

Yup yup!

[modest charm]

and then I used myself as an example. I have 0 professional experience in this area and I am sitting there

[gusty inlet]

Hard work pays off I guess.

[modest charm]

However, I think having good write-ups are totally valid to share etc

And that can count professionally, it is a way to really show your approach to a problem, technical skills and even other skills like writing and organization

[chilly veldt]

lmao

[clear jackal]

This depends, you don't pay double tax but you still need to file

[rapid merlin]

Lmao

[keen depot]

Depends on the country and if they have a double tax treaty with the us, most countries don't tax citizens if they're residents of a different country, the US tries to grab tax from people who are technically a US citizen from having a us parent, even if they've never lived in the US, that's pretty unique

[blissful pulsar]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-hello-chat-funny-annoying-gif-8664986189922990414

[clear jackal]

I'm not sure about your last assertion. The IRS website says you're exempt if you've been in a foreign country for an entire tax year and/or out of the country for more than 330 days in a 12 month period. That being said, neither of us are tax professionals (I don't think) and one should be consulted if you're in this type of situation.

Also, quick note, having to file does not mean you're going to pay tax. US citizens are required to file regardless of their situation.

[keen depot]

My GF is a tax professional 🙂 but I admit I didn't ask her 🙂 I'll also admit I'm not sure about the details, but I'd equate my 'tries to grab' with your ' required to file'

[hollow pivot]

Hi

[loud marlin]

hi hi

[sinful moon]

Ugh this may be a concern of mine soon lol

[keen depot]

I will say that its a more aggressive tax stratagem to citizens and accidental citizens abroad than most countries

[keen depot]

You moving abroad ?

[sinful moon]

Yeah we're low key considering moving to Canada

[hollow pivot]

I am new and have just started training at Tryhackme

Do you have any advice?

[rapid merlin]

Just spent five minutes looking for the call I was in to end on my phone. While my headset is linked to my laptop

😭

[keen depot]

Pretty sure Canada has a dual tax treaty

[sinful moon]

Interesting

[sinful moon]

Take notes and just keep at it, start whereever you feel your skill level is

[keen depot]

Follow the path and put in the time

[hollow pivot]

I'm just starting out but I don't know. Tryhackme is enough to become good at it.

[sinful moon]

Was that supposed to be a question? If so yes for the most part, but learning infosec shouldn't be limited to any single resource

[keen depot]

Yes, also take notes, while its tempting to just get your favorite AI to do the notes, you don't retain knowledge that way, type up your notes and use spaced repetition to memorise them

[sinful moon]

god lol I've never heard of people doing that, yes sounds awful

that indeed completely defeats the purpose

[keen depot]

Tryhackme is the best resource to start with, its what I always recommend to people, once you decide what area your interested in you can look into other resources

[hollow pivot]

I suspected as much, do you have any other resources to recommend?

[sinful moon]

Sure, this is a great resource for a tons of things, but helps to know what you actually need from it first: https://book.hacktricks.wiki/en/index.html

HackTheBox is another good resource but much more focused on CTFs and I'd recommend doing that down the line after you get more than comfortable with walkthroughs and more

[keen depot]

depends on what your interested iun, honestly i'm kinda out of the loop. hackthebox for red team, blue team labs and letsdefend for blue team,

[hollow pivot]

Yes, I've heard about it too.

[gentle jackal]

I really wanna start doing bug bounty hunting but it seems so daunting to start with to me and dont know if its worth it

[hollow pivot]

You are both hackers

[hollow pivot]

It's the same for me

[cedar copper]

yo guys can you help me

[gentle jackal]

But then again. Nothing comes easy. Guess just have to put in the time to study and get better

The industry is so amazing that I would like to make it a full-time job but I don't know anyone in my circle.

[bleak quartz]

Get the basics down first

[sinful moon]

Bug bounty is not something you just jump into without a ton of experience

yes this

[bleak quartz]

Exactly

[cedar copper]

i got a huge problem some group of idiots got my passwords and i didnt download anything or something dont you know how it happened?

[bleak quartz]

Tech bros saying that are bsing

[bleak quartz]

Was it an easy one

They could have just brute forced em

[cedar copper]

yea i mean

[keen depot]

Bug bounties are great if you want to do a lot of work and not get paid

[bleak quartz]

Ye just brute forced

[cedar copper]

no they dont know me that well

[bleak quartz]

Change it ig

They don't need to

or cant it be some kind of data leak or something beacuse they littlery got fucking password from my friend gmail and he got fucking hard password

[sinful moon]

password managers

problem solved

I like Bitwarden personally

[gentle jackal]

Okay. But what about doing disclosure programs that dont pay as a newbie? Less competition. Im learning the basics on portswigger and also played with Burp a little but yes very much a noobie

[sinful moon]

Don't even think about Bug Bounty just yet, for real get the basics under your belt

as said above, dude bros make it sound eaiser than it is, and they're usually faking it with AI which causes no end of stress to developers

so many imagined vulnerabilities that don't actually exist

[gentle jackal]

Okay thats better. But how to practice then ? Because you have these Damn vulnerable web apps and stuff but the vulns there are really basic after u know them

Yes AI gives so many false positives and i have seen it where people just turn in some AI report

[sinful moon]

Continue with TryHackMe, HBT, Portswigger as you say and so much more, set up even more VM labs, etc

[sinful moon]

It's gooten so bad most projects outright block anyone who submits anything sounding like AI

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/05/open-source-project-curl-is-sick-of-users-submitting-ai-slop-vulnerabilities/

Once you know a bit more, it's not hard to find more resources for learning and testing

[keen depot]

Learn the basics and use that to get a job,

[gentle jackal]

Yes I can imagine. I know its not easy. But when writing a final report people might wanna utilize an LLM just to straighten out or help them make it Professional but all the actual work was done by the person. Or is that risky. But thanks for advice. I will learn the basics first

Ah yes I actually read that article you posted somewhere on reddit I believe. But are those just some script kiddies asking chatgpt to hack a website or something 😭 so bad

[gentle jackal]

Thanks. Will do

[keen depot]

If you sound like AI your not using a good enough model

[gentle jackal]

Im pretty sure these bug bounty platforms have good AI detection. Doesnt matter which model. If you Just come with some AI generated stuff. Probably will be flagged

There was this report published by someone who submitted it to web3 bug bounty platform immunefi and he got perma banned as well

[sinful moon]

Yayy, just got a response to a support ticket with my hosting provider. They fully removed a port block which was preventing us from using a nessessary line of business function for a server I spun up

[gentle jackal]

And their triage teams have highly skilled and knowledgeable people on it so they will probably find it

[gentle jackal]

Thats nice

[half badge]

Everything in its right place

[sinful moon]

Yee, unsurprisingly it was just SMTP blocks

[keen depot]

Read some reviews of bug bounty platforms, they'll use any excuse to avoid paying out, if there's a verifiable bug then it shouldn't matter whether your AI found it or you found it.

[sinful moon]

I didn't think they'd instantly allow it through from what I was reading, but we're using a third party email provider and more

[gentle jackal]

Yeah that is what i dont like because I have watched a talk by Jason Haddix called the dark side of bug bounty .. where he basically touches upon crappy behaviour by some of these platforms that are supposed to cater to hackers and come up with some excuses to refuse payout. That is a real thing. But I am not skilled enough yet anyway so I will keep on studying and hands on practicing

But I am not using AI anyway for that.. If people do thats their choice but I would prefer to learn. AI is useful for parsing data and stuff for recon but not for finding actual bugs or generating reports

You can ask it questions if you're stuck somewhere or whatever but I find that people wanna utilize it too much out of laziness and also.. AI hallucinates a lot. Gives false positives. Sometimes might lead you astray even. But sure I can see some value in utilizing it but not some AI slop that is copy pasted and them submitted to a bug bounty platform. Its usually rubbish anyway there are many examples of it

[keen depot]

I don't mean to sound down on bug bounties, but realistically without a lot of experience its not likely to find a serious hole, bug bounty companies crowd source this, so instead of doing 10000 hours or research themselves they have 10000 people doing a hour each, maybe one gets lucky (numbers completly made up)

[half badge]

[gentle jackal]

Even though im not experienced I would disagree with this. There are many bug bounty platforms out there and one of the mental hurdles in my opinion is actually thinking you wont find any bugs there. Any web app has holes .. And another mistake I think many make is just touching the main web app and not doing good recon and Looking for subdomains for example which might be of a lot of value. There is still a lot of room to find bugs

[loud marlin]

ello @sinful moon

[gentle jackal]

And who says you have to spend 10.000 hours

Oh just random. Yes of course it costs time..

You have to invest time to find something

Were not talking like crazy 0day exploits that pay like a million. Some bug bounty platforms pay like 3k or 6k for critical

Or more. Or less. It just varies

[keen depot]

The thing is, you could get paid for that time, with a job in IT, rather than working for free in the hope you might find a bug

[gentle jackal]

Nah I have a job already and Im happy with it. I studied ICT in the Netherlands and worked helpdesk for about 3 years and it sucks big time. But okay helpdesk is like crappy entry level 😂

[keen depot]

You might be the next top bug bounty hacker, just like if you start kicking a ball around you might play for Real Madrid, but realistically very few people ever get to the top

[gentle jackal]

But Im not Looking to make like big bucks or go full time bug bounty. Just interested in web app testing in general. Maybe bug bounty will be for later. Im not doing it currently

[gentle jackal]

I get that. But thats not my goal either. But yeah thanks for the insights .. Maybe it is just a waste of time but who knows 😂

[patent falcon]

using gdb in a c compiled binarie in a x86 when i read the address the eip is pointing using this command "x/7xb $eip" it returns me 7 separte bytes -> "0xc7 0x45 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00" this returned sequence of bytes are in the most important bytes first or leat important bytes?

i think in the most important cuz 0x00 is just 0, but i wnat a confirmation

[knotty valve]

That sounds like a system config issue on your behalf

[rapid merlin]

even arch didnt in 3 months but windows do it for sure in 30 mins

[pulsar arrow]

user issue

[knotty valve]

Or a fault on your hardware

Never had this happen outside of beta

[rapid merlin]

i dont configure windows it comes preinstalled XD

[safe oxide]

[pulsar arrow]

well, whatever you're diddling around with is causing it

which means user issue

[rapid merlin]

and i only used their own Browser "Edge"

[knotty valve]

Yeah lmao

[rapid merlin]

no i dont configure windows at all

[knotty valve]

I've gone through and heavily hardened windows and never had BSODs

[rapid merlin]

coz i know it will break, not now but next week

[pulsar arrow]

then you must have an ancient laptop

[knotty valve]

Or bad sectors on the drive

[rapid merlin]

its not ancient it was released in 2022

[safe oxide]

Hmm

[pulsar arrow]

hard to believe

[knotty valve]

It's either hardware is jank or you've messed with something you shouldn't have

[rapid merlin]

i will give u model number

[rapid merlin]

never LOL

[knotty valve]

Windows doesn't just crash on a preinstall

[rapid merlin]

only vs code and microsoft Edge on my system

I just finished the google cyber cert and going for sec+, after that should I go for BTL1 or CCD cert?

[rapid merlin]

maybe android studio

[pulsar arrow]

might be a faulty ram stick

[knotty valve]

There's been very little cases where they've done updates that Bork the system

And usually they have it patched same day

[pulsar arrow]

i've had BSODs caused by a faulty ram stick before

[knotty valve]

like explorer crashing windows

That was a funny bug

[knotty valve]

Yeah either bad ram or bad ssd

Or user misconfig

[safe oxide]

Hmm

[rapid merlin]

its working fine on linux never had issue

[pulsar arrow]

had to go into the code for librewolf & remove the code that blocks google from being used

very weird thing to do

[rapid merlin]

and i dont configure windows besides dark mode

[knotty valve]

Never had to do that

Google works fine libre

[safe oxide]

How have you guys been? 🙂

[knotty valve]

Will when I'm home

Don't have my laptop on me

And I can't show screenshots of my work laptop

[rapid merlin]

what terminals yall use ?? my terminals i have on pc doesnt show which user / current dir when i catch a reverse shell

[pulsar arrow]

you might not have it because you downloaded it in 2020

[knotty valve]

Doesn't matter when it's downloaded lol

[pulsar arrow]

i don't think the config gets updated with auto update

not sure

[pulsar arrow]

couldve been a new feature

[knotty valve]

Mines up to latest cause it's part of my system updates

[pulsar arrow]

it removes google & meta search bar

[safe oxide]

Lol

[knotty valve]

Again never had this issue lol

Like ever

[rapid merlin]

cmd or powershell on my windows system 🙂

[knotty valve]

They just default ddg

[pulsar arrow]

show this when you're home

i'll re-download & check

[knotty valve]

Alternatively just update lol

[rapid merlin]

ugh no windows Xd

[knotty valve]

Same, my Linux uses the XFCE emulator

[rapid merlin]

Yeah no i know, i am switsching soon ^^

[pulsar arrow]

found it

program files > librewolf > distribution > policies

[rapid merlin]

its okay to use windows if u like it, i dont XD

[pulsar arrow]

uninstalls these search engines including google

had to manually remove it to add google to librewolf

it's also not updated in auto updates

which is why yours probably nevre had that problem

if you uninstall & re-install, you'll probably have it happen to you aswell

[rapid merlin]

What is a XFCE emulator? 🙂

[knotty valve]

The terminal emulator used in XFCE

Pretty sure I have their dropdown one installed too

[safe oxide]

What you broke now ken

[rapid merlin]

Emulator to run powershell? i am understanding it right? 🙂

[half badge]

I think I'm studying numeral systems and encoding more than I should..

[rapid merlin]

Is it from your linux system? 🙂

[rapid merlin]

[sullen schooner]

I want that!

[safe oxide]

Hmm it just gives you full control during the installation process and its in the goldilock zone between starting distros and complete full time job maintaining distros

[steady pewter]

That's where I live.

[safe oxide]

The lab

[rapid merlin]

Ah yeah ok! 🙂 Thanks for the explanation 🙂

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @safe oxide (current: #654 - 9)

[steady pewter]

kinda..but under.

[safe oxide]

[safe oxide]

There are underground labs

[steady pewter]

Long story short, I was an experiment and then escaped into the walls.

[sullen schooner]

Undershell lab

[safe oxide]

Welp

[rapid merlin]

I am soon moving to another system (linux distro) on another machine, and i've made up my mind that arch might be a bit overkill for my needs 😝

[sullen schooner]

Ohh what was the name of that SCP?? The one named Larry if anyone follows the SCP universe

[steady pewter]

wait..I've seen SCP, but I never really was interested in it.

lemme find..it..

[safe oxide]

Hmm you could just get an arch based distro

[rapid merlin]

okay yeah, do you have anything to recommend? 🙂

[steady pewter]

Me in terms of CTF?

[sullen schooner]

Why does that link say "smol"

[safe oxide]

Name of room

[steady pewter]

because it's smoldering.

[rapid merlin]

I'm pretty fluent i linux file system and terminal, but all the other stuff i am kinda new to 🙂

[sullen schooner]

Oh

Fun name

[safe oxide]

👍

[rapid merlin]

Ah sorry wrong message i replied to

[safe oxide]

[steady pewter]

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, do you have anything to recommend? 🙂

[safe oxide]

Hmm manjaro archcraft

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @safe oxide (current: #614 - 10)

[safe oxide]

Great

[rapid merlin]

What do you especially like about that one? 🙂

[steady pewter]

Me? No, I didn't cook this, I just went to an alternate universe.

[boreal scarab]

No more headache, still dont want to move

But hey, I'm tired again

[steady pewter]

For summer vacation last year?

[rapid merlin]

scam

[safe oxide]

Hmm non hassle installer

[rapid merlin]

War thunder-like pics for berry? 😛

[safe oxide]

Welp

[safe oxide]

Hmmm loo

[rapid merlin]

Ah okay yeah nice man 🙂

[safe oxide]

And you could just install blackarch keyring to get the tools

[rapid merlin]

I've seen when Matt gets going on war thunder tanks 😆

[safe oxide]

[steady pewter]

[sullen schooner]

Bruh just get kali and call it a day

[steady pewter]

I wish we could put reactions on reactions..

..on reactions of reactions on reactions of reactions of reactions on reactions.

[rapid merlin]

Okay yeah, thanks man! For real 🙂

[safe oxide]

Hmmm but then you dont get to use aur

[safe oxide]

Just hack dc lol

[steady pewter]

wait..I remember doing that on my steamdeck...

[safe oxide]

Hmm yeyy but wouldnt everything go back to normal after and update from top?

[steady pewter]

No.

It stays stable.

[rapid merlin]

its not small at all, i got ssh priv key to another user, but cant ssh into it gets permission denied ;-;

[rapid merlin]

I feel like you can always just get the tools anyway, you don't need kali to get the tools you need. A good system is more important

[safe oxide]

It is medium rated ken

[steady pewter]

I once participated in a CTF and got like 43rd on my steamdeck.

[safe oxide]

What ctf lol

[steady pewter]

Some big one..forgot the name of it..

[safe oxide]

Hmm

[steady pewter]

[safe oxide]

Yeyyyyy
