general

[rapid merlin]

Ours is pretty natural

[dark wolf]

its in ketchup, bbq sauce, other sauces, cereals, 80% of the dry aisles

[rapid merlin]

But it still doesn’t compare to Korean foods 😋

[dark wolf]

Food in other countries is much better. I know someone who went to Barcelona for three weeks and pigged out, lost weight lol

[rapid merlin]

Damn

[dark wolf]

You just have to eat less, so much of the food here is processed

[rapid merlin]

I wish I had space to grow my own fruit and veg. If I did I could grow all my own food and just eat that.

[dark wolf]

The best we have done is rosemary and thyme in our backyyard

everything else is DYING in this VEGAS HEAT

[rapid merlin]

It’s heaven to have food that fresh to cook with 😌

The food tastes much better

[dark wolf]

You can always go to PanchaMama in Costa Rica

I think they are a self sustaining community

[rapid merlin]

Oh really 🫣 Don’t tell me that I might purposefully disappear one day and never return lmao

[dark wolf]

They have a volunteer exchange program where you become an integral part of the community through service

so food doesn't cost money but rather service to the community everyone has their job

my wifes cousin went, he loved it, it was wild

[rapid merlin]

Noted.

I would love it too

[dark wolf]

They are big in meditation and yoga

and spiritual healings

[rapid merlin]

This is my calling

[dark wolf]

just look up panchamama costa rica and read about it

[rapid merlin]

I can feel it in my veins. The habit hole I’ll end up in on TikTok tonight 😆

[dark wolf]

Don't be ridiculous, people say things are bad in all parts of the world but they all have more good people than bad.

[rapid merlin]

Did I miss a message ?

[dark wolf]

I have a friend who has been to 30+ countries, even "bad" ones and parts and she had no issues

no i misunderstood lol

thought you were saying you were going to end up in a hole, lol

[merry canyon]

You are permanent in vegas or just there for defcon?

[dark wolf]

Been here 21 years

[merry canyon]

Ik you said you lived 22 years there

Ohhh

I thought you moved and came back for defcon

[dark wolf]

no i lived in cali half my life

[rapid merlin]

I would die from heat stroke in vegas

[merry canyon]

[merry canyon]

I HATE hot weather

[rapid merlin]

Fr that’s too warm

[dark wolf]

Nah you get used to it. Plus i have a pool

[merry canyon]

Only sundays i prefer hot weather cause i can hit the bwaxh

Beach

[dark wolf]

its not hot in the pool 🙂

[merry canyon]

Get butt naked on the matt

And telax

Relax

[rapid merlin]

YOU have a pool

[merry canyon]

On a private beach tho

[rapid merlin]

😂

[dark wolf]

we have lake mead here, plenty of places to kayak

[rapid merlin]

I do not

[dark wolf]

we can go kayak and beach along the colorado river

and we have mountains to hike up high in the summer

and rocky stuff to climb in the winter

[merry canyon]

Is there any laws for jetski?

[dark wolf]

you have to wear a life jacket and there are certain areas you cannot jetski

i dont have one so i dunno i just kayak which you can do whever you please

[rapid merlin]

I do like mountains, I saw that picture with all the mountains

[merry canyon]

I personally think, if someone has an insane amount of money, uae is to go

[dark wolf]

Theres a deserted beach an hour away on the lake that no one ever goes to you have it all to yourself

I've seen bulls there!!!!

and big horn sheep

[rapid merlin]

My neighbour was asking me if I wanted to go Dubai 😂

[merry canyon]

No cap, dubai is something else

[dark wolf]

I haven't been but that place is crazy, the cops drive bugattis

[merry canyon]

people may have personal experiences

[rapid merlin]

So is he which is why I said no 😂

[merry canyon]

But im from the middle east

And i confirm it is different than what its portrayed for

[dark wolf]

you'll like costa rica more

[merry canyon]

Have you ever travelled regardless?

You have a partner right?

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, I’ve seen some stuff about it online but I’m good. I’m not too into that life style tbh

[rapid merlin]

I have traveled to a few places

[rapid merlin]

Nah I don’t

I’m single

[dark wolf]

That's why I said you'd probably like Costa Rica more

you gotta go while your single .. you can go for like 3 months i think

[merry canyon]

Its more than that

[dark wolf]

abandon life! once your married, thats not happening

[rapid merlin]

Why’s that 😂 aha

[merry canyon]

ahhahahahhaha

[rapid merlin]

Who said I’m ever getting married

[dark wolf]

just saying go while you can either way

[merry canyon]

Look, mainly the most important reason for dubai is, tax-free, no tax on cars either, barely any duty on imports

So if youre rich, be rich in dubai

[halcyon dune]

Dubai is literally a concentrate jungle in the middle of sand dunes.

Then you can burn and feel like dying there.

[rapid merlin]

I might. I do really like travelling. I like seeing old historical places and I like the wild life

[merry canyon]

or monaco

im either going back to dubai or settling in monaco

[halcyon dune]

Or always near air conditioner 24/7

[merry canyon]

Turkey

[halcyon dune]

😭

[rapid merlin]

My family are going turkey soon and they said they would pay for me to go and I declined

🥴

[merry canyon]

No i think you should really go

Turkey is good

Lots of history

[rapid merlin]

But it’s pretty warm right and I don’t want to leave my cat

[merry canyon]

Cant you get someone to babysit

[rapid merlin]

I don’t want someone to look after my cat

[merry canyon]

America and Australia, even the EU are trying to pass similar laws

you should be prepared for other european countries to follow suit if the UK actually implements that

[hidden gale]

Hey but their doing it to “protect the kids”

Gonna use old consoles.

[hidden gale]

I’ve been downloading as much as I could before it gets censored 😂

Big up the snes

[topaz falcon]

I'm sure discord will do something and that'll end my presence even on here. I'm hoping THM doesn't have to do anything similar.

But I doubt they do

Moving to Linux doesn't mean much at all in this scenario

[merry canyon]

If they get asked to comply

Do they have a choice

[topaz falcon]

Probably not

[hidden gale]

This is true, I read a report saying we’ve got the highest number of people moving to Linux in recent years

[topaz falcon]

Nope, it's all on the companies to find solutions.
Some may use vpns, most probably won't.

So it's actually easier to enforce as we're forced to use third party verifiers

They kinda can homie. They don't need to do anything to you, just the companies.

[hidden gale]

I think the main concern is just mass surveillance

[topaz falcon]

Too little to late

[hidden gale]

Tinfoil hat vibes

[topaz falcon]

I ain't doing much with the internet if it happens. Centralization or not, I'd rather just go see the outside

Probably most I'll use it for is buying music, checking up on games or on any platforms that don't require ID.

[loud orbit]

Ik I’ve seen Ubuntu

[uneven nexus]

whats your goal

[topaz sedge]

If you wanna use for daily driving, start with Mint

[uneven nexus]

if you want to get used to linux just run a normal distro or wsl

[loud orbit]

Pentesting etc

[topaz sedge]

Kali or Parrot OS
But don't use them as daily driver

[dark wolf]

kali in vm

[loud orbit]

Ahhh okok

And I’m on windows

[uneven nexus]

yeah use a pentesting distro in a vm and use it on boxes youll learnsome linux quickly

[dark wolf]

and if you mess up its easy to roll back

so you dont have to be careful

[fervent cove]

yall ever run whoami in ur brain and it returns nothing

[loud orbit]

Ahh ok is it pretty much the same across all just different features? Like Kali is pre installed with hundreds or loads of hacking tools

[uneven nexus]

yes kali is pre isntalled with a bunch of blaot

[dark wolf]

no, everybody is someone to someone man

[uneven nexus]

like your not going to be missing tools you need for boxes most likely

out of initial install you might need to run an update though

[topaz sedge]

🧍‍♂️

[fervent cove]

would that just be them enumerating me instead of me finding out who i am tho

[loud orbit]

Guys is windows trash tho

[topaz sedge]

No

[loud orbit]

So any of you use Linux as your main os

[fervent cove]

yes i use kali as my main

[topaz sedge]

It has the most software compatibility, used most in corporate environments, has an easy to navigate UI

[loud orbit]

Linux ?

[uneven nexus]

when win 10 is eol which i allegedly is really soon going to swap to linux on main

[topaz sedge]

No, windows

It also runs the most amount of games

[loud orbit]

Yhhh I see everyone using Linux or switching

Windows is getting hate

[loud orbit]

True

[fervent cove]

only elite techies switch to linux

[topaz sedge]

It's a local minority of the linux community

[loud orbit]

Will always be loved

[dark wolf]

you can still run it , it just wont get security updats

[topaz sedge]

They say "linux doesn't have ads" when their entire community is an advertisement 🧍‍♂️

[fervent cove]

isnt win 11 upgrade free anyways

[uneven nexus]

thats a huge problem though

[loud orbit]

After windows 10 enit you have to do it your self

[dark wolf]

yeah and filled with ads

[knotty valve]

Void Linux, Fedora

Hello

[tight trout]

[knotty valve]

What more could you be downloading windows

[topaz sedge]

Why do gym trainers only focus on women? 🧍‍♂️

[knotty valve]

Fedora Workstation as my main, Void on my laptop, RHEL on my servers, Windows on my uni laptop

[knotty valve]

The answer is kinda obv

[knotty valve]

Yes

[scarlet nimbus]

Why are there more than 90% of men in cyber security?

[topaz sedge]

No idea tbh
Why?

[loud orbit]

I wanna do Kali Linux bc all the pentesting stuff I am kinda new to Linux tho ik abit

[tight trout]

i mean, if we wanna get super down to it i have the following on my laptops:

[knotty valve]

No man stays in IT long unless they're old af

The joke that trans people run CompSci exists for a reason lmao

[topaz sedge]

Unironically, I've seen alot of femboys in CS related fields

[scarlet nimbus]

It depends on the country

[knotty valve]

"femboy" aka transfem

jkjk

[topaz sedge]

That too

[tight trout]

ashhhhhhh

[knotty valve]

there is legit cis guys that are fem presenting without being trans

[topaz sedge]

I have no idea what that means tbh but okay

[knotty valve]

Can I just, yeet Edge from my system permanently

without needing a start-up script

lmao

[tight trout]

you might brick file explorer

lol

[topaz sedge]

You can but it might break some WebView dependency

[knotty valve]

I'll just build my own explorer

(or use CLI)

[tight trout]

[redacted]

[scarlet nimbus]

Btw, I've seen an APT in action I can say that is scary and exciting as f

[topaz sedge]

ATP?

Say the full form

[knotty valve]

APT?

Advanced Persistent Threat?

[topaz sedge]

ATP

Not APT

Oh

[knotty valve]

ATP is a biochemical for energy

[topaz sedge]

He meant APT

[scarlet nimbus]

Yes, it was a typo

[topaz sedge]

Exactly

[tight trout]

Advances Threat that's Persistent

:p

[topaz sedge]

🧍‍♂️

[knotty valve]

Advanced Tomboy Persistence

Me in a relationship

[tight trout]

[topaz sedge]

What's a tomboy again?

I can't keep up with the definitions

No offence to anyone

[knotty valve]

Tomboy is a girl that acts boyish

[dark wolf]

I knew what that was before any of you were born

[boreal gull]

or a girl named tom

[knotty valve]

It's an old term

[boreal gull]

🤔

[tight trout]

this term is older than i am lol

A girl who behaves in a way that is perceived to be stereotypically boyish or masculine.

[topaz sedge]

Oh

[knotty valve]

We generally call it butch nowadays I believe

But that's towards lesbians usually

-# which I am

[tight trout]

gay!

[knotty valve]

Took you long enough

😂

[boreal gull]

i had to check, i appear to be the first person to say the word lesbian in this server

nice

[tight trout]

hey im kinda stupid

F

[boreal gull]

my first post here was about a ctf that got banned by skidy 😄

[tight trout]

why'd it get banned? lol

[boreal gull]

risk of stroke

[tight trout]

stroke??

[boreal gull]

yeah, like you could die

someone complained

[knotty valve]

Did it have flashing strobes that would cause epilepsy seizures?

[tight trout]

how did you manage that?

[boreal gull]

not if you did the ctf properly

[knotty valve]

That's the only thing I could think of that may lead to a potential stroke or death

[boreal gull]

it also had ransomware that people would download to analyse or something

[topaz sedge]

Imagine trying to solve a CTF and you just die

Of a stroke

[boreal gull]

idk dont go to /ransomware , download it and execute it on ur pc

🤷‍♀️

[knotty valve]

I have a block of bread

Legit just a slab

Uncut

[boreal gull]

delicious

[tight trout]

what was the ransomware? salinewin.exe??

[knotty valve]

It's strawberry bread

[topaz sedge]

Beat someone with it

[tight trout]

thats actually super fun to watch pop off

[knotty valve]

🤣

[boreal gull]

never hear of strawberry bread

[knotty valve]

Neither have I till last night

I made it with my partner

[topaz sedge]

Pick up the bread slab and bonk someone

[dark wolf]

how was it

[boreal gull]

u invented new bread?

[knotty valve]

Pretty good tbh

[knotty valve]

NOM NOM

[topaz sedge]

Ohh I see

[topaz sedge]

Do you have to give language proficiency exams too for working there?

[boreal gull]

i have never given one

[topaz sedge]

Ah fair enough

[knotty valve]

I mean if you have a residency there I don't believe you need to do proficiency afterwards

[topaz sedge]

I have N5 proficiency since few years

I wanted to move to Japan

But couldn't 😔

[knotty valve]

I was going to move there, but cause of my tattoos I opted to not

[topaz sedge]

Yea they kinda look down on tattoos

[knotty valve]

Don't think they'd appreciate someone with tattoos from the neck down

[topaz sedge]

Tattoos are usually associated with gangs there
Like bosozoku or Yakuza

[knotty valve]

Yah

[dark wolf]

El Salvador threw a lot of people in prison cuz they had tatoos and were accused of being with a gang

[scarlet nimbus]

Ngl me and my German friends are willing to make a vacation in Japan

[knotty valve]

I did an exchange trip to Japan during highschool

It was pretty fun

[spark verge]

I like your webpage you made. 😄
I am working on one currently to showcase things, and daily post for nobody to read.

[knotty valve]

I doubt anyone will read the notes I have for networking 🤣

[topaz sedge]

It's definitely a fun place to visit

When I visited, I had alot of fun

[knotty valve]

Why does windows take ten years to update?

[boreal gull]

well with sanseito it is pretty bad here for foreigners

i dont suggest it hahah

[scarlet nimbus]

That would be nice

[dark wolf]

[boreal gull]

thanks!!

all that bloated mess has to be maintained. 😛

[knotty valve]

Yeah I plan to move back to Ireland later on in life 😅

[scarlet nimbus]

Because it is the same time from the release of a version to the end of life support

[topaz sedge]

I wish I could get that british english accent

[knotty valve]

Holy shit it's finished

Only took 20 minutes

[topaz sedge]

Yes so simple

[knotty valve]

Oh fuck off windows

You just did an update

[topaz sedge]

Lmao what happened

[knotty valve]

You don't need to do it again

[weak night]

Hey so I’m trying to break into cybersecurity and would love anyone's
advice on what helped them land their first SOC analyst/Penetration Tester/Network Security/Cyber role. I was looking to find myself a couple mentors that I could ask questions maybe every few days, anybody on here willing to help me out or could anyone point me the right direction? Name is Elijah btw

[knotty valve]

Reboots and goes "you need to update!"

[topaz sedge]

Yea it double-checks if any dependency is broken

[dark wolf]

every time!! it reboots to new kernel then finishes updating

[knotty valve]

Usually #cyber-and-careers is a good place to ask for help with career paths, certificates, etc.

[topaz sedge]

#start-here

Oh you're asking for job

Yea then #cyber-and-careers

[weak night]

💪🏾

[knotty valve]

I just got a notification from the update centre saying it needs another cumulative update

[dark wolf]

That's windows for you

Linux do it all at once

[topaz sedge]

Does Hyprland run video games well? 🤔

[weak night]

Well kinda but not, i dont have that much experience really just looking for peeps i can ask questions, mentoring reall but thank ya thank ya both!!

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @topaz sedge (current: #694 - 9)

[dark wolf]

I worked somewhere once where someone wrote on a whiteboard "Your mouse has moved, please reboot windows to continue"

[topaz sedge]

Linux isn't perfect too tbh

No OS is perfect

Just use whatever is less shitty for the situation

[dark wolf]

Nope, nothing is you are right

[knotty valve]

Linux is subject to dependencies needing updates at random af times

I prefer cumulative updates cause it bundles it all up at one stage and pushes it all

Rather than whatever the fuck goes on with linux

But in terms of systems design, I like Linux over Windows

[topaz sedge]

Ashlynn does Hyprland run games well?

[knotty valve]

I don't use hyprland

[topaz sedge]

Alright

[tight trout]

yes it does

[topaz sedge]

I was thinking of switching to Arch

[knotty valve]

I stick with XFCE and Sway

[tight trout]

at least for me

[topaz sedge]

And I wanted to use a particular hyprland rice

[topaz sedge]

Then it's alright

[dark wolf]

I remember using Enlightenment

just check the protondb and youll see how games preform

[dark wolf]

[knotty valve]

Pasta and meat balls

[tight trout]

ooh yum

[knotty valve]

Yea

[smoky widget]

Have you tried adding lemon juice (squeezed) on the rice ?

[knotty valve]

I have left overs :3

[smoky widget]

I hope it doesnt sound weird

[knotty valve]

I should try that one day

[tight trout]

no yeah lemon juice on rice is good

[knotty valve]

I've been suggested to do it a few times

I accidentally made rice pudding once 🤣

[smoky widget]

I got addicted eating that way though my friends keep looking at me with the “what” eyes 😅😅

[knotty valve]

I wasn't paying attention and grabbed the milk carton instead of the jug of water

[smoky widget]

It’s really delicious
Trust me

[smoky widget]

👀😂😂

[knotty valve]

Pretty sure I was drunk too

It was a amazing tho

[smoky widget]

Oh, what do you take ?

[tight trout]

my only rice misadventure is accidentaly making 10 cups of rice

[knotty valve]

Homemade rice pudding slaps

Even when you're not sober 🤣

[knotty valve]

LOL

[smoky widget]

10?!?!?! 😂😂
Were you making for the whole neighborhood 😂😂😝

[knotty valve]

I've done similar where I eyeballed the measurements

Did a good 4-5 cups

[tight trout]

i was teaching some scouts, and we were doing some easy cooking stuff, and i stupidly was like yeah you guys can figure out the portioning......

[knotty valve]

Ha

[tight trout]

they were like 11-12

it was so fucked lmao

[knotty valve]

They're not smart clearly lmao

[tight trout]

but we made really good food

[strong fjord]

[smoky widget]

I may have answers and may not answer regarding the nature of the question

[knotty valve]

Cheesecon?!?!?!

[tight trout]

[knotty valve]

At least Matt honoured the cheesecon request

Lmao

I indeed got cheese

[smoky widget]

I cant tell the meals there 😭😭
But hell on earth i love wha i see

[tight trout]

[tight trout]

[smoky widget]

[knotty valve]

Yes

[dark wolf]

mints and ash would be besties if they had grown up together

[smoky widget]

Cheese variants ?

[knotty valve]

@boreal scarab what's the cheeses?

[strong fjord]

I want to sub to a premium yearly because of the discount. However, it says 6 months free. The discount is 25% so my question is. Are they referring to the 25% off the 6 months free? Sorry English isn't my first language but I hope it's understandable.

[spark verge]

I have not seen 6 months free to answer that part, but I think the yearly cost breaks down to like 80-90$

[topaz sedge]

Lucky man
May you live a prosperous life

[knotty valve]

https://tryhackme.com/pricing it's pretty vague here too

[dark wolf]

im sure youll have the same by the time you are 50 lol

[knotty valve]

I think it's 6 months free, then yearly - x%

[topaz sedge]

I doubt I'll get married

[knotty valve]

But idk

[dark wolf]

its not for everyone

[tight trout]

how old are you?

[knotty valve]

I don't think I'm gonna marry tbh

I might

But idk

[topaz sedge]

19

Almost

[strong fjord]

The original/not discounted price is $10.50 and it's now $7.88 a month due to the 25% deal.

[tight trout]

you have time

[strong fjord]

I wish I could send a screenshot here

[topaz sedge]

alright

here's the deal

[rapid merlin]

Same

[dark wolf]

+rep @tight trout

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @tight trout (current: #34 - 319)

[topaz sedge]

😭😭why you're saying that

[rapid merlin]

Are you married ?

[dark wolf]

yup, 3rd time is a charm

[rapid merlin]

I just can’t picture it tbh

[rapid merlin]

😳 third times a charm. I’ve not been married once

[topaz sedge]

You'll find someone

[dark wolf]

well for me third time was

[strong fjord]

So this is the price with the discount

[dark wolf]

hopefully you will find it on your first just dont settle

and know that you will find someone you dont argue with

[rapid merlin]

Honestly I’m past caring. I don’t want to get married.

[dark wolf]

its cheap for this quality of training

in my 25 years of IT these are the best labs and training ive seen

and ive taken classes costing thousands

[topaz sedge]

You have a child, so that's good, a kid to carry on the generation

[rapid merlin]

I agree. THM is the best

[strong fjord]

Oh here's my question. So if I buy this? Do I get the 25% discount and the free 6 months?

[rapid merlin]

Yeah and she’s a sweet heart, she’s all I’ll ever need.

[strong fjord]

Sorry for my stupidity guys I just wanna learn cybersec and have fun

[dark wolf]

probably, i havent read the terms of service

none of us have

[topaz sedge]

That's great

[dark wolf]

if you read them it will tell you

[rapid merlin]

I’ve not read a terms ever in my life

[dark wolf]

we already have it so it's like why bother haha

[strong fjord]

I'll look for it

[mellow fox]

Hmm you think?

For IT it makes sense I suppose

I see thm as just a beginner friendly

Then to move on to other sources

[dark wolf]

It is very beginner friendly

[rapid merlin]

Yeah I got really blessed with my daughter😇

[dark wolf]

but only scratches the surface of a lot

the thing is it gives you enough to dive deeper

but thats on you to practice and study and challenge yourself

[mellow fox]

Mhm forsure

[spark verge]

I have an issue thats suddenly happening, if anyone has insight, I've adjusted in the GUI and in the terminal. My screens are timing out after like 2 minutes, though the settings do not reflect that at all.

[dark wolf]

The people with the biggest drive have the most success

[mellow fox]

I recommend thm to alot of people

Even my own girlfriend was redirected to thm from me lol it's amazing for beginners

[knotty valve]

I recommend THM and HTB

[strong fjord]

I'll just send the support team an email then. Unfortunately, by the time they're gonna respond, the deal is already gone. Thanks guys I really appreciate your help

[rapid merlin]

Is there a bios clock

[dark wolf]

The people who ask a lot of questions that are easily researchable generally aren't cut out for this but they come.

[topaz sedge]

I hope I find a hacker girlfriend irl 😁😁

[knotty valve]

Depends on the person's study style

[dark wolf]

You have to have this innate desire to not let software defeat you

[knotty valve]

My gf is an engineer :D

[fervent cove]

yall have girlfriends?

[knotty valve]

Yea

[mellow fox]

HTB isn't too begineer friendly

[knotty valve]

Love her to bits

[topaz sedge]

What is a woman?

[rapid merlin]

Good luck

[dark wolf]

ive heard the same, its THM on steroids

[knotty valve]

Yeah but it's more practical than THM tbh, which is why I recommend it to people who learn hands on rather than theory

Like myself

[tight trout]

IM FREEEEEEEEE

[knotty valve]

I learn through doing it and not reading it

[rapid merlin]

Ngl that was me when I first started and I’m still here 😅

[mellow fox]

It was like 4 days ago I got a message from my girl and she claims she wants to get a job in cyber security

Shit shocked me sooooo much

[fervent cove]

send her to maddy's youtube channel

[mellow fox]

HTB is amazing for people getting ready for entry certs example is the ejpt v2

[dark wolf]

hack the box but you have to port knock 10000 ports in the correct order, break out of a docker container, realize you are in another container, break out of that, get disconnected, it starts ping flooding you and you grab your computer and throw it out the window

[knotty valve]

My gf wanted to do electronic warfare so she could work with me in the future

Jokes on her, I'm not going into EW

I'm going into JACET 🤣

[fervent cove]

Ive seen cyber guys many times, but never cyber girls

[tight trout]

[tight trout]

fades into nothing

[knotty valve]

I'm one :3

But I'm not open

[topaz sedge]

I said "irl"

I SAID IRL

[mellow fox]

I've never seen girls that are into cyber sec either I guess from her watching me practice and study she took an interest

[knotty valve]

I'm into various fields tbh

[topaz sedge]

Interested in cybersec

Cause this is a cybersecurity server!!! Duh!

[round onyx]

HI honey~

[knotty valve]

Cyber, astrophysics, psychology, and biomed

[spark verge]

@rapid merlin yes to BIOS clock, and its working order and such.

[tight trout]

https://maia.crimew.gay/

[topaz sedge]

Isn't this one?

[strong fjord]

[topaz sedge]

The CS industry will collapse if something happened to the furries

[rapid merlin]

I dunno then, that was a random guess. See if you have a “Focus” mode on your computer. Maybe it’s setting off some kind of timers

[strong fjord]

protect them at all costs

[dark wolf]

You are gifted
