[ripe sleet]

It recently happened

Supposedly, someone in the company violated their employees confidentiality as well by leaking personal information for the streamers in the company

Apparently, ths artists and others who worked for ironmouse also were never paid too

Most of the streamers left, so that company is fucked in every sense of the word

The company is called vshoujo

[green sorrel]

a useful piece of knowledge indeed

[dark wolf]

Congratulations on completing Digital Forensics Fundamentals!!! 🎉

woo hoo 77% done with cyber security 101... almost 3 weeks into this

[fading jewel]

Hello everybody, free rooms are enough to learn or not please? 😄

[dark wolf]

No, they are not, you will have to pay for a membership to take full advantage of it.

If you are doing this for fun, then it's really up to you. If you are serious about learning Cyber Security, there are not a lot of sites that offer content like this that gives you a chance to interact with VMs and get hands on practice.

So if you want to work in the field, you won't find a cheaper course than this

[fading jewel]

I also started to learn with Htb Academy

[dark wolf]

I haven't tried HTB yet

[fading jewel]

And I hesitate to take their student subscription, idk what to do

If I pay htb academy or thm 🥲

[dark wolf]

What is your goal? Why do you want to do this?

[fading jewel]

I want to learn cyber security

[uneven nexus]

what in cybersecurity

theres like a million roles

[dark wolf]

I just wanted to play CTF's and learn everything possible that I would need to get great at them.

I didn't even find out about HTB until after I got a subscription to this

Still haven't even gone to their site lol

[fading jewel]

Precisely I don’t know since I started only now, but I am interested by networks. I am going to do a master degree this September in networks (bcz I could not find an apprenticeship in cybersecurity to do cybersecurity master)

Cyber threat intelligence / forensic interest me a lot too

[dark wolf]

Do you have work experience?

[uneven nexus]

i think you will find more networking focused stuff on thm vs htb

[fading jewel]

But I lack knowledge to talk properly

[fading jewel]

No

[uneven nexus]

there are wireshark tcpdump snort and etc rooms

and challenges

[fading jewel]

Ohhh okay thank you so much

I will wait until Black Friday to get the discount and take it, for now I will learn a lot from free rooms and htb academy free courses

[uneven nexus]

check the soc level 1 path for the rooms they have before buying a sub and see what you like for your interest

they have quite a few on networking

[fading jewel]

Maybe I can learn by both platforms too , I don’t know if it is a bad idea or not

[uneven nexus]

yeah you can do both but both of them have weak free teirs

most of the usefull stuff is paywalled

[dark wolf]

Personally, I would say go through one training at a time. There are a lot of learning paths on here, but they build on each other.

So if you don't go in order, you can spend more time trying to figure things out.

[fading jewel]

Yeah maybe I can pay first one plateforme and than other one and so on

[dark wolf]

If you hop back and forth, it could get tedious and boring or still leave you unsure, and you probably don't want to pay for both

If you pay for a year on this, you won't finish everything in a year

There is plenty of content to last and things to learn and challenges to do

[fading jewel]

Yes it is true !!

Okay thank you so much, I will see !!

[dark wolf]

Good luck and chill here if you want, ask whatevfer you want. There is also #room-help if you get stuck on something

Hello guys, my Kali Linux in VMWare Workstation Pro is very laggy, what can I do?

My hardware specs are Ryzen 5 7600x, B650 Motherboard, RTX 4060 and 32GB 6000hz CL30RAM. I have allotted 6 cores, total GPU, 16GB RAM and 120GB Disk Space from 1TB NvME SSD.

[tight trout]

define laggy

og wait

i see your issue

give it 2 cores

thats it

[knotty pendant]

I had a dream where i found 2 web servers in my garage

[crude walrus]

I tell you more in DMs

[dark wolf]

Try installing vnc server and using tightvnc to connect to it

[spring tendon]

When I try to search something in the OS, let's say Terminal, it is taking a while to show what I typed in the search bar

[dark wolf]

I can't stand using the one inside vmware

it works much better with vnc

[spring tendon]

VNC is like another VM software?

Sorry, I'm complete noob

[dark wolf]

no, it's like rdp

[tight trout]

if you give it too many cores, theres not enoough work to get done, so they have to switch between virtualized and not too often, causing lag

[dark wolf]

That's fine, we don't judge here

[tight trout]

with 1-2 cores theyre always being used, so they can stay virtualized

i've had that issue before

[dark wolf]

But the window inside vmware sucks... use remote desktop or vnc and it runs better

[spring tendon]

Switched to 2 cores now

[spring tendon]

I don't know anything of this but I have ChatGPT, I'll do some research around it. Many thanks!

try and see if it works and keep messing with it until it works

Be aware that a set of instructions that work for one person might not work for you.

[red karma]

im studying for it too

[dark wolf]

It depends on the circumstances. If you get distracted, it can take much longer.

If you go down the wrong rabbit hole you can take longer.

[wispy current]

What are you using to study for it?

[dark wolf]

The more you learn and get good with it, you will probably have an easier time making it within the time.

[wispy current]

What are you using to study for it

[dark wolf]

I have 25yrs in IT and I take longer sometimes.

The important thing is to keep trying and learn from what you do

Learn how to use the technology until its second nature

[red karma]

he's good too,

[dark wolf]

like riding a bike , you get better the more you ride

[wispy current]

Same, I literally wrote down EVERYTHING lmao

[uneven nexus]

screenshot software helps a lot with the notes

[wispy current]

Sometimes I be like “am I even gonna need this”

[dark wolf]

or any activity, once you keep doing it and learn it, you then do it easier because your brain can access it quick

when you are learning, it's hard, it sucks, your brain has to do work, it wants the other side of the brain to just pull it up how to do it quick.

but you need to practice and learn in order to train the other side of your brain to pull it up quick

The more you put into it, the more you get out and at that point the test will be a lot easier

[loud orbit]

@dark wolf hi

[dark wolf]

Sup chozen

[wispy current]

How long would you say to study? @dark wolf

[loud orbit]

Can I get your advice as you was in IT FOR 25 years

Vigorizante

[dark wolf]

sure, what do you want to know

[red karma]

i prolly just did an oopsie then

[dark wolf]

I actually have to upgrade some Citrix Netscalers in an hour and a half. I have had trouble in the past. A couple years ago I spent 12 hours doing it and was up till 5am. That was not fun lol.

[red karma]

chat is this minus aura?

[dark wolf]

Here is the thing Chrollo, when you get a job you want to do well and better than others. If you get a cert by just trying to find the answers, what good will that do you when you do get the job? It won't ... you'll fail and get frustrated.

[keen light]

i have a dark confession and that is that i prefer to work in AT&T syntax when doing stuff

[wispy current]

I barely did the sims as well lol but I usually wait until the end to do sims so I kinda just rain outta time but I still passed it

[keen light]

dun dun dun

[red karma]

initially thats the main reason why i join tryhackme a while back because i dont wanna mke the same mistake

[dark wolf]

everything you do in life comes down to how much effort and time you put into learning and practicing things, baseball, hockey, dancing, coding, networking, firewalls, security, telephony, welding, carpentry

And when layoffs come, who do you think they let go of first? If you answered "The people who don't study or practice much" then you are a winnnnerrrrr

[wispy current]

How long would say someone should study before testing?

Just in general not even for specifically CompTIA

[dark wolf]

I mentioned I had 25 years in IT, I was in a week long training class last week and a 4 hour training class this week and hace more coming up

[red karma]

do you have like any cybersecurity youtubers that you usually watch during free time

[dark wolf]

It never stops!!@#!@#!@

[wispy current]

What certs do you have? If you don’t mind me asking

[dark wolf]

No, I never watch the cybersecurity youtubers, i started watching a couple do rooms to learn something

CCNP Enterprise and CCNP Security

[wispy current]

That’s wassup, after I get my sec+ I wanna go for CCNA

[dark wolf]

Got my first CCNA in 2000, let it expire, got it again in 2007 then the CCNPS and im not letting them expire.. no way lol

[blissful current]

[red karma]

is it a better idea to go for ccna after sec+ or sal1 and pt1 from tryhackme? (i was primarily thinking - oh its a beginner cert maybe i should go this way)

[dark wolf]

I had to take like 10 exams

[wispy current]

GYATTT

[red karma]

for ccnps alone???

[dark wolf]

If you have no experience certs are cool, but they are only going to help you into a junior position.

So my advice would be to study what you like doing more

then you can have fun doing it at work

[red karma]

alright

thx

[dark wolf]

No problem, happy to help the younger gen out

You are our future

And we both dislike boomers lol

[blissful current]

[dark wolf]

Gen-X is a cool gen 🙂

[blissful current]

[dark wolf]

we've been dealing with the boomers crap for 45 -55 years

[blissful current]

[dark wolf]

Although, even my gen has a lot who are not computer savy

I've had a computer since i was 12 when my dad bought a 286 HP computer and I was learning BASIC on it

[blissful current]

[pure vortex]

Hey guys just a question so I’m about to finish my 3 year advanced computer programming diploma and I just finished my Google cyber cert but like how when I apply for soc analyst jobs it asks for experience how can I get experience like it doesn’t make sense to me any ideas?

[red karma]

is tryhackme enough when studying for sec+? should i also try HTB once i have sal1 and pt1

[dark wolf]

Hello jeff

[wispy current]

I’d say try to make projects and put them in a port folio or something and put it on linked in

[dark wolf]

You need to obtain a position as a jr something ... maybe even in a little bit of a different field like networking

[red karma]

intership or keep on looking

[dark wolf]

or sysadmin

you can use that experience to transfer after a few years

[wispy current]

What are you exactly using for sec+ in thm?

[dark wolf]

You will probably be switching companies every 3 years in your career.. its the fastest way to make huge pay jumps

[pure vortex]

I’m really building my soc skills and just getting the Comptia plus cert and projects but like is that enough u guys think

[wispy current]

You using certain rooms? Or just kinda going through it? Asking for myself as well bc rn I’m only using dions videos

[red karma]

practical labs and also because i know nothing about ethical hacking, the whole time when i was still studying for a+ and net+ i always kept asking myself "when am i gonna get the good parts?"

[dark wolf]

avoid: it's never ever enough... i have been doing this for 25 years and i just did a week long training class at my job

you are ALWAYS learning new things, it's about how well you can learn it, remember it, use it and improve

[wispy current]

Yea I’m just trying to find stuff that will help me learn the quickest and actually stick yk

[dark wolf]

I started from the beginning and am following every single class. I knew a lot of it but I learned some cool things too.

[pure vortex]

I’m trying to stay motivated like I feel good but I don’t understand why the job market is bad it’s like cyber is growing but. Jobs are hard to land it’s very demotivating uk

[dark wolf]

Do you think that Tom Brady tried to learn footbal as quickest as possible?

[wispy current]

That’s what I’m doing as well, just following the paths they give me

[dark wolf]

Or did he spend HOURS and YEARS training?

[wispy current]

Definitely learned some cool stuff

[uneven nexus]

all of that is overkill for sec+ imo all ihad when dostudying sec+ was some htb academy stuff which was mostly red team and then just when through the typicl meser stuff

[dark wolf]

There are no shortcuts to learning this, you have to put in the time

[wispy current]

Not actually quick I’m just saying like the best way of learning for me lol

[uneven nexus]

sec+ is mostly vocab quiz ngl besides the pbqs imo

[dark wolf]

Just go through and complete all the learning rooms

[pure vortex]

Do you guys have cyber jobs

[dark wolf]

Make sure you understand the room and what it teaches you

Im a network engineer

[wispy current]

BROOO

How is that job?

[pure vortex]

Oh that’s sick

[dark wolf]

I love it

[wispy current]

That’s what I wanna do

[pure vortex]

What qualifications do u have

[wispy current]

That’s why I got net+ and going for CCNA after sec+

[pure vortex]

Like a bachelors

[wispy current]

When I was taking classes in school for different certs and we got to networking i immediately Gravitated towards network engineer

[dark wolf]

I started as a Jr. Systems Admin, then Linux Administrator for a email spam protection company, then i moved from san diego to vegas and got a job as a php developer for a company sending out spam, then network engineer and have been since

[wispy current]

That’s dope fr 🦾

Can’t wait until I’m there one day

[red karma]

@dark wolf is a year long class based internship (like just 45 min a day for 5/7) any worth mentioning to potential employers? it was called tech support internship and we did help desk rotations, ticketing systems, fixing chromebooks/replacing components

[dark wolf]

Yeah, it's pretty interesting going from the light side to the dark side lol that company was shady though

But as a network engineer, I've worked with Firewalls, Voice over IP, Wireless (for convention centers), Core Network switches, upgrading the network at lucals oil stadium, exchange a bit, perl, python (for life)

[merry canyon]

Amazing and inspirational journey

[dark wolf]

and probably more

[merry canyon]

why did you become a php developer

[dark wolf]

I spent 60 hours non stop with no sleep upgrading the network at lucas oil lol that was not fun

[merry canyon]

and does it help you in your current role?

[dark wolf]

It's like this .

The PHP Developer job, i needed a job and knew perl and had played with php

so i took the job

[merry canyon]

I am studying php at the university , web development and sql

[dark wolf]

so knowing php, as a network engineer, we had people that had access to the core switches to change QOS (rate limit)

[merry canyon]

But my end goal is to be a pen tester

[dark wolf]

and we wanted to take it away , so i wrote a php page so they could login and select what rate limit they want on what interface and my perl script would push the config

this was in 2008

[merry canyon]

Oh wow

[dark wolf]

but now, i switched from php to python and from perl to python

and realized how awesome python really is

[merry canyon]

Do you think php is in more demand now compared to then?

I have done python too at uni

[dark wolf]

and it helps with automation and data collection and things that other solutions don't accomplish

[sly ridge]

Hell no

[dark wolf]

Wordpress is still very popular so yeah probably

not for employees

I mean, there are less PHP jobs, but there are still in demand

[merry canyon]

How does programming language help us in long run as pentesters? Because that way during uni i can focus on that areas

[dark wolf]

kinda like news paper delivery boys

[merry canyon]

And even make assignments and projects on that

[dark wolf]

Because say you develop 10 steps to your process

and you don't want to do all 10 steps yourself do you?

[merry canyon]

@sly ridge include your input too

[dark wolf]

why not write a python script that interprets the results and moves to the next item

then you just run one command and wait

[merry canyon]

This will ease my work ofc

[dark wolf]

There you go!

[merry canyon]

Where does ruby stand in this field

[sick maple]

guddo morningu

[dark wolf]

and you can make your own database to store the info into

[red karma]

i heard that soc analyst typicall use automations to do checks on a machine

[sly ridge]

PHP is absolutely far less in demand than 2008. You can look at job listings for that. The skillset is still needed for legacy, but no one is building new projects based on PHP.

[merry canyon]

With python?

[red karma]

has anyone used boot.dev? is the subscription worth it?

[gusty inlet]

Yes.

Oh

Wrong reply..

[sick maple]

wouldn't it be easier to save in a json file

[red karma]

oh

[gusty inlet]

Yes.

[sly ridge]

As for why you would want to know how to program as a pentester, you will never understand the how and the why a tool works or how the vulnerabilities exist in the first place without diving into programming

[uneven nexus]

you just need to be able to read it i think

[sly ridge]

To be adequate, sure. If you want to create malware and be a notch above the rest, you'll need to actually know how to program

[merry canyon]

That does answer my question Indica, but could you elaborate? Do i need to know all languages? Do i specialise in one only? Or do i specialise in one and know some others?

[sick maple]

you should be able to understand what a code does when you see one in any language

[wispy current]

@dark wolf have you used Cisco packet tracer?

[sick maple]

don't have to master them all

just a basic understanding of how that language works will be enough imo

[merry canyon]

And if we have to develop? Our own tools or malware

[sly ridge]

That depends on how far you want to dive in. If your goal is to be the best of the best, you'll want to know Python, C++, C, and some assembly. You can still be a good pen tester without these things, but it absolutely makes a difference if you hvae the skillset

[sick maple]

then use the language you're most good at to make it

[merry canyon]

When does one know theyve hit this stage if theyre on thm red team path

[loud orbit]

Anyone good with laptops knowledge ?

[sick maple]

i think that's when you start needing your own exploits

[loud orbit]

I got the choose between 2 and I need advice

[sick maple]

when you see a new cve and feel like you should weaponize it

[merry canyon]

What is it

I fought alot either chatgpt over laptops

Without having more than $60 in my acct

[sly ridge]

I mean, there's no magic formula

You just pick up skills and use them as you see fit or are comfortable doing

There are two schools of thought with experienced people in the field that I've talked to. There are people who think you only need to learn programming enough to the point where you can read and understand code, and there are others who think you should learn how to code before you even start hacking. Neither approach is wrong.

[craggy fulcrum]

i feel so accomplished as a coder with my first few projects

[fresh gyro]

with the advent of AI i’d argue this skill will be less pertinent in the future

[sly ridge]

Programming?

[fresh gyro]

yeah

[sly ridge]

If AI were actually a real thing, then sure.

The "AI" you use is just an LLM

It only works off of the data provided

[fresh gyro]

we’re years away from AGI

possibly before 2030

[sly ridge]

The amount of trash code that is going to be implemented within the next couple of years is going to be astounding

Vulnerabilities going unpatched out the ass

[fresh gyro]

i mean, ai will be used for both red and blue contexts

[sly ridge]

It will actually end up with another hiring surge for a bit for devs that are willing to fix that trash

[fresh gyro]

perhaps. ai technology will be the worst in terms of performance today. it will exponentially improve at a rate that will outpace the best humans at any specific skill set

[sly ridge]

AI can't replace blue team, and certainly can't handle explaining a post pen test report to non technical users.

You need people to relay what's going on to management in a way they will understand

I'm not an AI detractor either, but it has it's use cases and it needs to be done very very specifically

[red karma]

if enough data is provided and trained enough could ai possibly automate most blue/red team tasks? i saw a post once talking about how an ai was left running for 8 months for the purpose of bug bounty hunting and over the course of those 8 months it found 1000+ vulnerabilities; 50% of which were labeled critical and they said that they never touched the agent from the initial start

how can someone protect theyre value againsts ai automations or ai agents

[sly ridge]

This would require someone to proof through the 1000+ vulnerabilities found to see if it's a false positive. If you've ever tried vibe coding, you'll see how bad AI gets the longer you let it run and leave it to it's own devices

[fresh gyro]

specialize

[sly ridge]

I'm not even an AI detractor, I'm just being realistic to what AI currently is. There is a lot of corporate propaganda out there and you can't listen to everything said like it's the gospel

[red karma]

since alot of the future contains ai, how can someone leverage off of ai? i dont even know how to use or make agents or use the "make.com" website

[sly ridge]

You need to spend time learning how these things work in order to leverage AI correctly to make meaningful work.

And you need to really understand the things you're automating with AI

Otherwise you won't even know if there is a problem until it's a major problem.

[red karma]

what are your thoughts on social media accounts that automate posts (like the brainrot ones) and finding out they make passing income because the people just let it run for days to weeks without touching it

the primary reason i wanna learn ai and automation is to literally just do this or something similar but alas im the type of person that is very lazy and procrastinates on assignments

[sly ridge]

I don't really care personally. If a tool is out there to use, and it's putting food on your table and isn't illegal then it's not my business. I just personally won't contribute to that account's success.

[loud orbit]

Hey anyone experienced with laptops knowledge and can help me please ? I’d appreciate it

I just need help picking between 2 as im not the most experienced

[red karma]

are you tryin to get a laptop that can run multiple vms?

[loud orbit]

Yes

[red karma]

for cybersecurity purposes or gaming?

oh

[loud orbit]

I can show you 2 I’ve been looking at

I have a budget tho

[red karma]

what is it

[loud orbit]

Of 350-389 ish

💀😂

[bleak quartz]

First insane!

[red karma]

still good

[loud orbit]

Cyber but would love it for gaming to

[sly ridge]

I agree with this. I'm just saying that AI isn't going to just "take everyone's job"

[loud orbit]

Really ? I will show you then how 1 sec I’ll send the links

[red karma]

ive seen some laptops with 32ram and 1tb ssd (some has ryzen) for 350+ most i seen were 400-500+

https://amzn.eu/d/9o6R2sG, https://amzn.eu/d/dafneOG

[royal gazelle]

just get whatever is cheapest, run containers locally and utilize free cloud computing credits with the major providers as much as you can

[loud orbit]

I have been struggling to kinda pick the perfect laptop in general so if u know any or anything I’d appreciate it lol

[loud orbit]

I wish I fully understood what u saying ,I can look it up

I wanna get somthing future proof

[sly ridge]

I think the bigger moral issue is the insane amount of unemployment AI has already contributed to. Corporate greed has no bounds no matter where you are. There definitely needs to be some open sourced oversight over AGI/AI

[loud orbit]

Someone is offering to buy it family member but that’s the budget of around 350 maybe can push it to 390 ish but no more then thag

[fresh gyro]

agreed

[royal gazelle]

containers will save resources locally - most people really only need containers for labs, utilizing cloud will offload resources completely and you can usually get a fair amount of free credits

[red karma]

what is agi?

[sly ridge]

Artificial general intelligence

[fresh gyro]

artificial general intelligence

[loud orbit]

Do u have any advice on best laptops for 350+

[red karma]

oh

[loud orbit]

@red karma did u see the links ?

[fresh gyro]

the so called “no going back” stage where it’s possible that ai gets so advanced it surpasses humans

[sly ridge]

Difference between AI and AGI in a nutshell is that AGI will be able to "think" on it's own

[red karma]

couldnt access it

blank page

[sly ridge]

Think Cortana or Jarvis

[royal gazelle]

my advice would be get a raspberry pi 5, some cheap second-hand peripherals and pocket the rest of the cash

[sly ridge]

If your budget is 350, you should look at the used market imo. That's a pretty small budget for a laptop that you plan on running homelab stuff on

[loud orbit]

I Carnt lol family member said I can get one up to 350-390 ish not the money straight up tho ….

So I would go max best one I can get

[royal gazelle]

if you need a laptop find a used enterprise grade thinkpad, it will survive the nuclear winter and several generations afterwards

[loud orbit]

Like t490 ? I7 512 ssd found one on Amazon

[royal gazelle]

hell yeah the t series rocks

[loud orbit]

https://amzn.eu/d/71HDjIB

[loud orbit]

@royal gazelle

[sly ridge]

If Facebook Marketplace is a thing where you live, check on there

You can get great deals on used thinkpads

[fresh gyro]

got one during black friday for a steal

[loud orbit]

Don’t trust there

[sly ridge]

Slap arch linux on it and you're golden

[loud orbit]

Yhhh I want to

[sly ridge]

I've had nothing but great experiences on FBMP, but that's fair if you're not comfortable

[placid bridge]

Hi

[sly ridge]

Ebay may also be a good place to check in that case too

[loud orbit]

https://amzn.eu/d/5BmrxXV,

https://amzn.eu/d/6Syujgs

There the 2 I found on Amazon

It’s not even that my family member don’t Trus places like that he won’t get it from there

I’ll need to get it from a actual place

[sly ridge]

I'd go with the thinkpad over the dell even though the cpu on the dell is better. I also just personally hate dell computers

[loud orbit]

Do you think the dell outclassed the think pad a lot though ?

[mortal ether]

That one was a suggestion from Abdu114h, the other AD rooms were Blackout's suggestion. Basically the rooms in this series:
https://tryhackme.com/module/windcorp

[ripe sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-15677826050545973054

[fresh gyro]

dell has a lot of unnecessary bloatware and is usually overpriced for the tech

[sly ridge]

I mean you're going from an 8th gen i7 to an 11th gen, so yeah it's going to be noticable, but if you're going with linux on it, it's not going to be as big of a deal

T490 is also upgradable iirc?

Maybe one of the last uogradable thinkpads I think?

[loud orbit]

Yhh upgradeable ssd and ram

[sly ridge]

Yeah I'd go thinkpad personally

[bleak quartz]

Oh, @safe oxide THANKS

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @mortal ether (current: #323 - 23)

[bleak quartz]

I enjoyed it a lot

[keen light]

THINKPAD

[loud orbit]

Ah igu I want to future proof it yk to last me

[bleak quartz]

Took all damn night tho

[mortal ether]

lmao, i stole Abdu11ah's rep👀

[bleak quartz]

Scammerrr

[loud orbit]

With Linux on it would it make it as good or “better “ especially bc of upgrades ?

[bleak quartz]

[loud orbit]

I’d have to get use to it tho was gonna use windows abit at first @sly ridge

[tight trout]

you'd have more hardware overhead than with windows

[sly ridge]

No, because you would have put linux on the dell too. It'll be fine for what you want to do either way.

What Mints said

Especially a lightweight distro like arch if you're comfortable with that

[loud orbit]

What you mean ?

Ok I partly understand you

Sorry

[sly ridge]

Idk how popos and mint are these days in terms of being lightweight if you don't want to install arch

[loud orbit]

So over all the think pad is better due to upgrades and then with Linux

[red karma]

what price range is necessary for gaming laptop + home labs

[loud orbit]

Compared to the dell regardless of the higher cpu

[uneven nexus]

real answer is buy a desktop ngl

[fresh gyro]

this is the way

[loud orbit]

Gaming laptops are like 1k + for really good ones

Expensive asf

[fresh gyro]

OR you could invest in a at home server solution and then just get a ps5/xbox lol for about the same price

[sly ridge]

If you want the best performance, the dell is a better option. The Thinkpad can have upgraded RAM, but it can't have a higher gen CPU. I say thinkpad personally because I just like them better and I don't think you'll notice a substantial difference for what you plan to do

[loud orbit]

I just want the best one overall for cyber and any additional pluses that’s future proof and won’t cost me more money long term

[sly ridge]

If you're comfortable with facebook marketplace, 400 - 600 will be enough. From retail stores ~750 - 800 unless there is a good deal. We're talking minimum too. Ideally you should spend as much as you can. Cry once and never again

[fresh gyro]

this isn’t the best time of year to purchase this gear

if you could wait a couple months you’d get more value for your money

[sly ridge]

Back to school specials in a month might be decent if you're in the US

[loud orbit]

Yh I don’t have that luxury sadly

I’m uk

So it’s kinda like picking between them to

Carnt find anything better on Amazon really

[sly ridge]

Yeah that was more for chrollo. I saw the url from your amazon link and knew you were in the UK

[loud orbit]

Curry’s pc world is expensive asf ,Argos is shiteeeee and idk we’re else to look

[loud orbit]

Oh lol

[uneven nexus]

better off spending 400 on a prebuilt with a decent cpu and a trash gpu that you can upgrade in the future easily than a laptop at the same price imo

[sly ridge]

^

[loud orbit]

So think pad?

[sly ridge]

Go think pad. You'll also get the style points

[loud orbit]

What y mean ?

Style points?

Ohhh

lol

As in how good it looks ? “ hacker laptop “

[sly ridge]

Everyone and their mom in tech loves think pads. Especially Linux people

[loud orbit]

Yhhh

[hollow frost]

Hello

[loud orbit]

Even the key board right ?

[loud orbit]

Hi

[sly ridge]

Yeah the keyboards are nice for a laptoo

think[ad is the best gotta get a T or P tho

none of that E or L stuff

even if it means buying older

[loud orbit]

Hub

Huh

[keen light]

they are model types

[loud orbit]

Ok im confident to get that ,at least I can upgrade it aswell

[sly ridge]

They're looking at a T490

[loud orbit]

I was just worried about it having a older cpu 8 instead of 21

11

I mean

[keen light]

that is a good one

[craggy fulcrum]

should i buy 100 rtx 6000 from nvidia for my server?

servers are getting cheap

[loud orbit]

Should I sent you the link so u can see it if your wondering

[keen light]

i would go for the thinkpad

but then again i always go for thinkpads

[loud orbit]

Even though the lower cpu

Damn everyone loves thinkpads 😂

[keen light]

yeah cause the repair factor

[loud orbit]

Think I’ll go for that then bc I did love the way it looks and the upgrade able ssd and ram

[craggy fulcrum]

get the thinkpad

[loud orbit]

Up to 64gb I think

Yhh

[keen light]

im not sure how good the dell keyboard is and if the keyboard is broken it will be a pain

[craggy fulcrum]

the dell one also looks really bulky and ugly and a very small screen size

[loud orbit]

It’s looked to much like a MacBook to me

I hate MacBooks

Ish

[loud orbit]

Yhh the screen 😒

[keen light]

im planning on getting one of these in a few months

For what ?

[craggy fulcrum]

i hate old people that argue with me about RAM like im using 13gb right now to study and that doesnt include the vm's i've been running to test things and if i wanna play a game after im done studying ima start pushing like 20+

[keen light]

bro is probably thinking of the days when 2MB ram was a lot

[craggy fulcrum]

bro's "future proof" pc from 1998 had 128mb of ram and hes telling me what to do with my 50$

[bleak quartz]

Stfu bro

[bleak quartz]

U lucky mods are sleeping

[keen light]

someone hacked my psn account and bought read dead redemption 2 ultimate edition for like 120 pound and they wouldnt give me a refund after i recoverd the account

[uneven nexus]

there were so many crazy breaches around that time and i was stupid with making accounts when i was younger

i already found the dump for one of them ironically and got the hash and clear text pass

no you cant

Lol

[deft crest]

[deft crest]

lmaoo chat is getting heated

[marsh lark]

Hi zyper 🙂

[bleak quartz]

This what I'm talking about btw

[broken plaza]

technically if you prove them ur account was hacked they should refund the money and take back the game. Or maybe the refund policy doesn't account for such case. Check the T&C.

[bleak quartz]

Most obvious AI shit

[bleak quartz]

Read

[keen light]

[craggy fulcrum]

[deft crest]

qurti did you find any labs for ad btw?

[bleak quartz]

Usual

[spring tendon]

I switched to 2 cores and 1 thread each. It is somewhat better than before, but the searchinf for an application still feels very laggy.

Do you think it has to do with the gnome enviroment?

[broken plaza]

😂

[uneven nexus]

or something just because it was somewhat malware analysis iirc

[broken plaza]

yeah i saw

[bleak quartz]

This was an AD lab

Haha

[uneven nexus]

[broken plaza]

AD Breaching ?
