general

[spark verge]

Incredibly, I wont say some don't get it faster than others. And you will likely be in class with people who have done it since they was in middle school, even younger, but don't compare your progress to others.

[lilac coyote]

Like basic enter name thing I was a kid back then idk

[spark verge]

learn the basics, build projects, and focus on that.

[loud orbit]

Ahhh okok

[lilac coyote]

I'm 17 now and I wanna pursue my career in like either cybersecurity or Blockchain or I'm planning to learn full stack and I'm confused asf if I could do any of these and freelance in like upwork or fiver

[keen flax]

so yea, your enployment world is going to be so different than mine. I don't really know what to say for how to get into the industry

[loud orbit]

Could you give me advice for cloud advice etc

[loud orbit]

Ohhh okok

Fair enough

[lilac coyote]

Alright mate

[spark verge]

I attempted programming 4 times over my lifetime, and the time it clicked most for me, was using AI to guide me through the full process of making a basic thing, that way I got to understand how it all ties together.

[lilac coyote]

Idk man I haven't explored my field of interest yet I find it boring much

[loud orbit]

I was gonna start with the micro soft az-9000 online @keen flax

[keen flax]

My advice is get $300 10 year old server off ebay and get k8s and ceph working on it, then you can talk about that and the exploration of that

[lilac coyote]

What languages you good at now?

[loud orbit]

Ahh igu so rn you only doing programming?

[spark verge]

It helped me to make the front end, for a basic app, like a calender to-do thing, seeing how the back-end basic information works with front-end and stuff.

[lilac coyote]

Idk man let's see

[spark verge]

I am not good on any, but I know python most.

[lilac coyote]

How old are you

[loud orbit]

Me ? If so ,think im way to new for that 😂🤦🏽‍♂️

[lilac coyote]

How many languages u good at vro

[loud orbit]

No I mean as of now ? Like today or been doing ?

[loud orbit]

None but was exploring python

[keen flax]

Lol, ok. well sign up for a free teir on oracle's cloud--- it's like one vm, but you have to provision it with terraform

[spark verge]

You can about do anything with python, I would stick with learning it to build fundamentals, then whatever direction life is taking you can determine what you branch into.
And I am 34.

[lilac coyote]

Damn are you actually doing job or sum?

[spark verge]

No, I am a late student haha.
Decided to pivot in life once I got busted selling weed.

[lilac coyote]

Ayo same are u into cybersecurity?

[lilac coyote]

💀

[loud orbit]

Smart

[loud orbit]

Yesssss

[keen flax]

brb, updating my secure boot signature database

[lilac coyote]

You working on Linux?

[lilac coyote]

How many languages u good at tho

[loud orbit]

Learning yes

[spark verge]

Unfortunate, but I am thankful it happened, gets me a change in life, I had been doing it as a sole source of income for about 18 years or so, idk, since I was 16,

Good weekend everyone

[spark verge]

And I was super over it, way over it.

[lilac coyote]

You must have thic cash then if you're selling weeds why sudden change in work field 💀

[loud marlin]

i need to update my 3d printers for a change... =/

[lilac coyote]

Oh

[slow cloud]

I cant u send me one?

[spark verge]

I got arrested. XD

[lilac coyote]

Makes sense tho

[slow cloud]

Since u have multiple

[spark verge]

And had to paid out the ass for the best laywer I could, but it in turn got me a possesion charge instead.

I was fortunate, it was the first time I had been in trouble.

So spent a short stint in jail, got two years unsupervised probation.

[lilac coyote]

So now you're planning to get a job as a programmer?

[lilac coyote]

I did back then bash was ass ngl

[spark verge]

I would like to get a job in the Cyber-Security field.

[keen flax]

languages are just grammar + syntax. with a reference anythings fine. that being said I do a little light python, some shell. When I was a software engineer at IBM I programmed in Java, and perl (ew). and I was taught C and asm

[spark verge]

I enjoy problem solving is why I wanted in tech.

[lilac coyote]

Asm?

[spark verge]

I second this, I waited too long to get familiar with the terminal.

[keen flax]

asembly

[lilac coyote]

Oh

[loud marlin]

was that for me or i missread smth ?

[lilac coyote]

Alright that's a computer language?

[keen flax]

ALmost.

[knotty valve]

ASM is godly

Binary is more computer lang

[keen flax]

it is very computer, it's almost a langauge

[lilac coyote]

Alright ion know shi about asm

[loud orbit]

😭

[keen flax]

you don't really if you're not doing IoT/embedded or RE

[uneven nexus]

asm for re actually isnt that hard to learn

[loud orbit]

As what

[keen light]

gdb flaskbacks

[loud orbit]

Any advice for it

@keen flax can I dm you ? For advice about more cloud computing or

[keen flax]

I was taught on the VAX chip which is VERY C on the CISC

Um, sure

[loud orbit]

Would cloud computing still be the path for me bc im just starting terminal ,want to start python and get into hacking aswell and mix it with cloud as cloud security type thing also +purple team

@keen flax

[modern lava]

What do you guys think about the AI/LLM security sector and Web3. Will they keep getting bigger in the upcoming years?

[spark verge]

The courses on Tryhackme helped a lot, But I used websites online and downloaded a cheat sheet, but yeah, the courses on tryhackme will get you quite familiar.

[keen flax]

Sure! I think that's still fine. Cloud computer is still computing and there's a log of custom code upthere. just even heavier on containers

[dim spoke]

dang, you took the D in DM very serious

[keen light]

There are 2 important questions in life and they are 1. Vi or Emacs 2. AT&T syntax or INTEL syntax

[keen flax]

nano is right TF out.

[loud orbit]

Cloud is the only way I can break in through a apprenticeship other wise I can pick : Cyber Infrastructure Technician
Cloud Engineering
Information Communications Technician
DevOps Engineer
Digital Support Technician
IT Support @keen flax

[loud orbit]

Huh

[keen flax]

I have a soft spot for DevOps, that goes right into Cloud Engieering and devsecops

[dim spoke]

just messing with you, all good 😛

[keen flax]

red is pretty good too

[loud orbit]

Im on free try hack me sadly

[keen flax]

[loud orbit]

@keen flax so cloud is perfect for learning hacking or breaking into that aswell

Versatile skills ?

[keen flax]

can I dm you?

[loud orbit]

Yes

[floral ice]

big sad

[loud orbit]

Was gonna ask you the exact same thing 😂

[loud orbit]

Ik

[dim spoke]

she already gave you the ok, thats why I was playing at it xD

[spark verge]

The purple throws me off so hard, I love purple, so in my own bias I assume the purples are higher levels. lol

[spark verge]

But, if you decide to grab the sub, its totally worth it.

[dim spoke]

the levels are tagged, so when you click on people you can check their level

[spark verge]

Yeah I know, I just don't usually. haha

[keen light]

what level has a red name

i need to get to that one and just stay there

[keen flax]

my colour?

[spark verge]

That a mentor color?

[keen light]

is there not a red as a rank color

or is it reserved for mentors

[uneven nexus]

[keen flax]

I'm in every single ring

but I was talking about this one

[loud marlin]

one day i will finaly finish my dotfiles =/

[keen flax]

gosh I love IaC. I just write code, and poof dns gets provisioned, nginx forwards requests, there's a program running, a disk was made for it. All I did was git push

[loud marlin]

got 0 frack what did you just wrote lol. you sound more like army codes 🙂

[keen flax]

“I really appreciate Infrastructure as Code. Instead of manually setting up servers, DNS, or load balancers, I just write the desired configuration in code. Then, when I push that code to our repository, the system automatically provisions everything—DNS records, Nginx routing, the application deployment, even the storage it needs. It feels like I just do a simple git push, and the whole environment builds itself.”

I had an AI rewrite it for me

[ripe sleet]

Hello Mouse!

[loud marlin]

hehee. thanks... i have some of that things on router. like DNS for sure lol

firearm parts that look Strikingly similar to your cold air intake component

[keen light]

https://tenor.com/view/omelette-egg-prepare-food-gif-7690570

[polar spoke]

also for anything that goes under the hood, ABS minimum per what it says on that page

though i'd even go for something a bit more heat tolerant if possible

[loud marlin]

we test it. abs is more due to strenght. heat is not issue

[polar spoke]

260 on the nozzle from your screenshot so printing something higher heat there

[loud marlin]

ABS need that temp

[polar spoke]

heat is definitely a problem if you try to print it in PLA

trust me 🙂

it gets very hot in the engine bay of pretty much any vehicle

[loud marlin]

in pla yes. pla get soft on bathroom central heater

[polar spoke]

lol

exactly

[loud marlin]

this is abs. he have some nice car and covers things. we try to put few abs rnd things in few spots and drive around to check will it be ok. so far all oik

[polar spoke]

imo for car parts, you want something more durable than you'd think you want, ABS can work but there's newer stuff that seems more suited

certain ASAs and PLUs and such

[merry canyon]

#876804968731009055 check it out

[polar spoke]

Nylons can do ok apparently too but i've not had enough experience with them

they seem more picky

[loud marlin]

petg and abs was ok after 1h driving like maniacs. no heat deformation. so we did go with abs

[polar spoke]

granted, i live in texas, things melt here anyways

so my environmental considerations probably dont match yours

[elder hound]

Nice keep grinding

[loud marlin]

that yea. in nl we had summer days of max 32C. "summer"

[polar spoke]

hahaha oh

we're in the 40s in summer here

[craggy mango]

what 3d printing machine do you use like the type and brand

[loud marlin]

first one i get is Creality CR10 Smart Pro. now i have Creality K1C and K1se. so 3 of them. K1C is closed system so i can print plastic that are bit toxic. since it have exaust filter and so

[spark verge]

I have only used one, and it being the bambu labs AI mini.

this is for the TryHackMe site

used pidgin ever ?

[inland sky]

I left a message there. I hope it can be resolved as soon as possible 🙂

[keen flax]

The VPN client tried to connect to theserver, but the server isn’t accepting the connection. The log also shows that it’s using an older setting for encryption that’s now considered deprecated, and a performance feature called ‘data channel offload’ isn’t available on this system. None of those cause a failure by themselves, but the key issue is the server at that address is actively refusing the connection—basically, we’re knocking on the door and it’s saying ‘no.’

[sand trench]

god that brings shadow back in time

[loud marlin]

tell me about it. it still works. ofc if you have acc maded on jabber

[royal breach]

So he isnt allowed by THM server?

[sand trench]

or his isp is blocking the connection

[median stag]

why are vc blocked???

[spark verge]

Could they had not put the file in the VPN folder? I just use the on-site one, but when I first started I tried out the whole my VPN thing at first.

[keen flax]

18.202.168.160 isn't the same as the server I go to, might be diff region

[spark verge]

I know im not explaining correctly, as I cant remembder

The ovpn file thing

[sand trench]

you need to verify on this discord first.... it is a protection to make it less likely some random person just joins vc and causes problems

you need to be verified to be in vc

How’s it going gang

[keen flax]

ohhhh how no one remembers me

[loud marlin]

@polar spoke eplain this for me zip2joh file ends up with 84mb hash?

[keen flax]

What's up?

it’s a direction,
generally considered to be one of the two perpendicular to the tangent of the earth at your location.

In a cartographic or geographical sense, in the direction corresponding to north
Earht’s north is also used for up on solar and galactic planes within our galaxy

Sometimes. up is used to mean higher numerically
for example “my cholesterol is up”

and it’s also used to indicate the head of a queue, including time
specifically for the termination of a wait for example “you are up"

hihi @boreal scarab

[loud marlin]

well... number 5 is not big without content. 5e not so much 5 bodies in fridge... well

[polar spoke]

right, this is common to a few modes like the other zip/rar ones

[sand trench]

still never played pathfinder or dnd

[loud marlin]

you can use 7z or similar to extract those files

What Linux should I use if Im a beginner?

does wav file work with this too? maybe that was hwo i was supposed to solve this one ctf

[sand trench]

[loud marlin]

on click i get popup

[knotty pendant]

Hi

[craggy mango]

we need more of this

[sand trench]

linux mint
or
pop os

[knotty pendant]

Try “password”

[polar spoke]

try 7z from command line

it should extract the files it can

assuming they are actually unprotected

[royal breach]

What's the difference

[keen flax]

I've always like spectral analysis- like maybe waterfall- and spelling out things. but I also like having a 3rd channel that's unrendered with a psq31 track

[keen flax]

a PSK31 track

[royal breach]

Is there way to transfer my data to linux with like a tool

[uneven nexus]

ngl this sounded like aliens to me plugging this into chatgpt

[spark verge]

I am on pop-os, and compared to some other distros, this one has given me zero issues running three monitors, but im trying some others soon.

[keen flax]

rsync?

[sand trench]

cloud storage or usb sticks

[uneven nexus]

idk anything about that stuff tbh

[sand trench]

is the safest bets

there are other ways that are less safe and can risk data loss

including external ssd:s/hdd:s for usb sticks here

[royal breach]

Im definitely not looking forward to transferring data over cloud 😬

[stoic quarry]

What's the install size of xp / the storage of floppies

[dark wolf]

Silastic, not sure , but CD's only held 700MB

[stoic quarry]

1.44MB

[sand trench]

wait maybe it was windows 98

[stoic quarry]

According to a quick search

The first time I installed Red Hat 4.2 was in 1997. My friend gave me a cd but etched the name of the red hat on it

[stoic quarry]

If only there was a better way

[dark wolf]

that destroyed the cd but i didn't know

i tried installing it 40 times

could you imagine it being your actual job to install xp from floppy...a single instal per day

@near hawk y'all still restore streaks, right?

I gotta try whiskey again

I don't like the taste of pure alcohol

[oblique loom]

My job as a cybersecurity position opened, finally.

I applied

But, not feeling confident tbh. Not cause I don't know my shit. But, I don't trust my organization. There's a lot of carelessness

[loud marlin]

[crude junco]

mamamouse seems annoying but interestiong at the same time

[boreal scarab]

I love whiskey, but I dont drink everyday, basically weekends, but even then, it could be like 5 weeks between drinks

[oblique loom]

[ripe sleet]

Mixed drinks where you don't taste alcohol is the best ones

[keen flax]

UGG HOW LONG CAN HE POUR THAT?

[boreal scarab]

Nah, @cosmic pendant told me to quit, I see him as an awesome. Great friend, and a role model. So, quit cold turkey.

[ripe sleet]

The best part of going to Disney or Universal at age 21+ is getting drunk

I got drunk as fuck in Epcot and animal kingdom

[loud marlin]

that's ok. i just do rare per need

[ripe sleet]

Spiked Dole whips go hard too

[crude junco]

[boreal scarab]

Forever!

[ripe sleet]

They make them strong asf for no reason

[oblique loom]

I got drunk at defcon

Everyday

Was fun

[ripe sleet]

Getting drunk with matt would be fun

[crude junco]

i really want to drink but my countries legal age of drinking is 21

[boreal scarab]

@normal fable You got competion!

[oblique loom]

Don't say that, drinking is nothing special trust me

You get over it really quick after being sick enough times

[crude junco]

huh is that so

[ripe sleet]

I've never gotten black out drunk

[oblique loom]

Same

But def sick and hangover

[ripe sleet]

I've also never puked from alcohol too

[crude junco]

sad then ig

[oblique loom]

Ok I can't beat that lol

[crude junco]

tough guy

[ripe sleet]

I know my limits

[oblique loom]

I threw up so much it's why I don't party as hard

Trowing up sucks

[crude junco]

ohh

[oblique loom]

Being dizzy after sucks

Af*

[ripe sleet]

Loud places/parties aren't my forte/environment tbh

[oblique loom]

I used to do raves in college

EDM festivals

All that shit

Was fun

[ripe sleet]

If I was invited to a party I'd probably show up and then get bored and leave

[oblique loom]

Yup

Same

[ripe sleet]

There's a point that I tap out

[oblique loom]

Last party I went to was a few months ago and I was only there for an hour

Didn't drink either

Despite all the alcohol everywhere

[ripe sleet]

I am deeply afraid of what I will do when blackout drunk, so I never get to that point

[oblique loom]

Yea dont

I have friends that have done that and then wake up in the hospital

[ripe sleet]

Cause if I go nuclear in that time. Lots of bad can happen in a short time

By nuclear, I mean a meltdown

[languid gale]

Hello guys, I have one question

[ripe sleet]

Hello!

[languid gale]

Can someone get your face with discord without using links?

[bleak quartz]

no

[languid gale]

Hi!

[oblique loom]

Face?

[bleak quartz]

camera access?

[languid gale]

Ok, thank you

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @bleak quartz (current: #169 - 54)

[languid gale]

Yes

[bleak quartz]

With some insane zero-day yeah

but chances of that?

Extremely low

[oblique loom]

Through Discord?

[languid gale]

Oh bc someone scared me

Yeah

[bleak quartz]

how?

[bleak quartz]

yeah

[languid gale]

He just said I will get your face card and send everywhere then I said you can't without a link and then he said he can

[ripe sleet]

Call them on their bluff or block them

[languid gale]

So I got scared

[oblique loom]

If someone wanted to target you specifically. Discord is a poor way to do it imo

[languid gale]

Alr blocked

[bleak quartz]

hes prob just a larper

just block lol

[oblique loom]

Oh that shit

[ripe sleet]

That would be funny to fuck with thst person

[oblique loom]

Oh man, if I had a dollar for all the times that has happened to me

[languid gale]

Done, thank you so much guys

[ripe sleet]

Just say no balls

[oblique loom]

Its a bluff

Its bs don't worry

[languid gale]

The only think I know is that Never click on a link

[languid gale]

Thank you so much

[ripe sleet]

If you ever think a link is malicious, use VirusTotal

[bleak quartz]

good

[languid gale]

Ok thank you

[uneven nexus]

urlscan is better for links

[languid gale]

Can I tell you guys how I got hacked 1 time if you got time

[bleak quartz]

Okay, but don't trust the scan results either

[oblique loom]

Scan my website and let's see who finds it first lol

[bleak quartz]

just because it wasn't detected doesn't mean it's safe

[ripe sleet]

Is there a better one?

[bleak quartz]

Yes

[ripe sleet]

Which one?

[oblique loom]

I can vouch for this

[uneven nexus]

url scan will actually go to the site for you and give yous creen shots

[ripe sleet]

Is the urlscan that suhuf mentioned better

[uneven nexus]

and give other info

[oblique loom]

My webserver is accepted by all browsers with no issues

[ripe sleet]

I'll look into it

[oblique loom]

Oh nice!

[languid gale]

One time I got hacked bc I letted someone in my pc with an app (I do not remember the name) he putted all my screen red and a password that I didn't know but I just bringed my pc to a technician and he deleted the virus for only 20 Euro

[uneven nexus]

wannacry?

[languid gale]

I think I am too good and I trust too much people

[oblique loom]

How much is that in USD?

[bleak quartz]

never trust 100%
but
urlscan, urlvoid, scanurl, https://phishtank.org/, https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/

[uneven nexus]

was it wannacry by chance?

[languid gale]

Old story lol

[uneven nexus]

sounds like the malware might have been wannacry wannacry had a built in kill switch for the malware

also was ransomware

[oblique loom]

Is £20 = $20?

[bleak quartz]

no

[languid gale]

Like it was death virus or something

[bleak quartz]

it's like 27

[oblique loom]

Oh

[languid gale]

No

[oblique loom]

So almost like, $30

[bleak quartz]

27usd

[oblique loom]

Not too bad

[bleak quartz]

yuh

[ripe sleet]

Bet

[uneven nexus]

did it look like this?

[languid gale]

No

[uneven nexus]

f

thats petya

[languid gale]

It was red and a lot of user with strage names

[uneven nexus]

?

[ripe sleet]

Do you know any good resources for understanding what is malicious in a exe file through the code?

[languid gale]

And all of them required a password

[uneven nexus]

then idk

[oblique loom]

IwannaCry

Fun times

[uneven nexus]

i was infected by that when in was younger yeah

[oblique loom]

I have that malware but it's not primed

[uneven nexus]

i have it in my flarevm

according to re researchers (not me) its acutally extremely poorly made

[oblique loom]

Its a fun virus, yea. Just don't get too crazy with it. Lol

[uneven nexus]

debug symbols kill switch in malware unpacked etc

[oblique loom]

Its basic script honestly, but it's been a long time since I analyzed it

So I don't really remember

[uneven nexus]

you can just plug it into ghidra and its all there Lol

[oblique loom]

I have to find it first lol

Its on a USB that I lost somewhere

[uneven nexus]

its on some sites

the zoo

vx underground etc

jsut check the hash for the version you need

[oblique loom]

Already have it tho, just gotta find it. I don't trust most sites unless im already familiar which I am not with thoses

I went to the deepweb for stuff

[uneven nexus]

i only mention them becuase reverse engineers use those sites for samples

[languid gale]

I found it on yt

It was no escape

[oblique loom]

Really? Nice! Might make things much more easier

[uneven nexus]

yeah the files are always zipped with a password anyways

not that you shoulkd download on host os regardless

[oblique loom]

I use Tails tbh

And just forward files

[uneven nexus]

https://github.com/ytisf/theZoo

[oblique loom]

DM this link so I can keep it

[compact fossil]

some people have the raw brain and idiosyncrasy that inspires u so much

[uneven nexus]

sure yeah ill give u a list evne from my pmrp notes

[bleak quartz]

just .exe file?

[compact fossil]

a big reason im into this field is the astonishing amount of things people do with their brains

i love it i really do

[ripe sleet]

Yes

I've examined it in ghidra

I just don't know what the fuck I'm looking at

[floral ice]

what if u have no brain like me 🥺😢

[bleak quartz]

Ghidra, IDA, Radare2, dnSpy, x64dbg, PeStudio

[compact fossil]

idk then? maybe ull surprise me

[ripe sleet]

Would remnux or flarevm be better you think?

[bleak quartz]

oh you want to learn rev?

I thought u meant tools

mbbb

[ripe sleet]

I would like to eventually. To make ctf's

I would like to do one where you have to reverse and unearth a malware containing links or flags to certain areas

[bleak quartz]

I'll send u some in dms

gotta gatekeep

[oblique loom]

We need these resources

For science

And stuff

[compact fossil]

it would actually be nice if u could share with me as well!

[oblique loom]
