[sleek hare]

Green Hat Hacker
These are the “newbies” in the world of hacking. Green hat hackers are not aware of the security mechanism and the inner workings of the web, but they are keen learners and determined (and even desperate) to elevate their position in the hacker community. Although their intention is not necessarily to cause harm, they may do so while “playing” with various malware and attack techniques.

As a result, green hat hackers can also be harmful because they often are not aware of the consequences of their actions — or, worst, how to fix them.

[worldly pollen]

he told me like that

[topaz sedge]

Green hat?
Is that a new term?

[sleek hare]

didnt knew about thst

[sleek hare]

yeah i found its definition

[sturdy sequoia]

Haha, you say that now....

[sleek hare]

its non standard

[rapid merlin]

So what are you right now?

[feral whale]

thats actually respectable

[sleek hare]

[worldly pollen]

broo I was joking when I said what about pink hat I tought pink hat for girls

[sturdy sequoia]

I'm a silver hat. It's like a grey hat, but older

[rapid merlin]

Good but don't go illegal hacking because you can't protect yourself against the law

[feral whale]

so basically blackhats that are activists

[topaz sedge]

So...
Hacktavist are pink hat hackers?
But doesn't that also collide with grey hat hackers since grey hat hackers sometimes hack to advocate for something?

[sleek hare]

term mde by femboys btw

according to some webs

[sturdy sequoia]

theyre all made up

[slow cloud]

no clue, never heard of blue, green hats etc

[topaz sedge]

It's better to study about hacking rather than talking about hats of hacking

[slow cloud]

only black, white and gray

[rapid merlin]

the only hat i know is the one on my head

[sleek hare]

all ik anout hacking is from practice

i have never properly studied it

[sleek hare]

[topaz sedge]

Every country wants their payment system to be implemented there for their convenience

For the ease of implementation, they went with the most widely accepted mode of payment, in this case, credit card

The same is with HTB

They require card payment

[feral whale]

[slow cloud]

whatsup

[feral whale]

Cool Dude u are living the dream

[neat pond]

ye i know this paths just to understand more

[slow cloud]

soc l1 and defending azure probably

[finite dawn]

is software engineering bachelors degree good for a SOC junior start ?

[neat pond]

HE DO EVERY>> DAY

[feral whale]

Idk if its a path but i liked the web fundamentals path

[neat pond]

i started DevSecOps what do u say guys

[neat pond]

me2

[topaz sedge]

but then every country would demand their own payment system
favouritism towards one country is not appropriate

[feral whale]

I am a software engineer and i am a noob. Hope that helps u

[finite dawn]

i didnt understand 🙁

[neat pond]

what about PT1 guys ?

[feral whale]

I had no clue about cs

[neat pond]

also what is this about PT1 or PT2

[feral whale]

Even after working in software engineering for several years

But I am our companies 0,1x dev

[slow cloud]

PT1 is a cert that holds a bit more value, but i dont know how recognized it is by companies

[feral whale]

The only reason I am still working there is cause i bring the family vibes

[neat pond]

guys i wanna ask if i work at a small office or something is that not better to practice more and more to be ready when i got work at real big company ?

[neat pond]

i asked someone at reddit he told me he get it at 4th attempt

is it hard that much ?

[feral whale]

Small places tend to be more chill

[slow cloud]

idk, i have not done it

[neat pond]

ye am gonna work for free just to be more expert

[slow cloud]

i would love to do either PT1 or sal1 but they cost money

[neat pond]

money > not problem

[feral whale]

Thata a good idea

Learning in a real env is gold

[neat pond]

that what i mean

the CEO there loves me u know because i know C

he told me come everyday if u want just dont do stupid think lol

[feral whale]

The goat

CEOs tend to be the most chill

Seniors take themselves way to serious

[neat pond]

HE is great men

u didnt understand just

[feral whale]

Kali is not a day to day os

[neat pond]

thougt issues

[rapid merlin]

yes you can do this

[rapid merlin]

oh so what i didn't understand

[feral whale]

He shouldn‘t

😭

[neat pond]

i'll tell u when the elephant climbs on the walnut xd

[short patrol]

i use node js in kali believe me its stucks too much in kali os

[rapid merlin]

but how he shouldn't

[feral whale]

To much stuff and tools he doesn‘t need

Kali is „optimized“ for pentesting

Actual softwar engineering is gonna be paun

[neat pond]

what u mean ?

[rapid merlin]

but it doesn't mean that he cant do what he asked for it is designed for penetration testing but you can also do what he asked for

[feral whale]

On kali

Day2Day software engineering

[slow cloud]

you can, but id recomen doing it on a better day2day OS

like mint or ubuntu

[feral whale]

Yes u can do it, you can code on ur iphone too

[neat pond]

am gonna check it out

[feral whale]

Doesn‘t mean u should

[neat pond]

that True yes u can since a long time

[rapid merlin]

so yes @short patrol you can do on Kali but they are right you have to do it on day to day os so if you have windows ubuntu or mint do on that

[feral whale]

MacOS goated for coding

how did you do that

[rapid merlin]

@marsh lark can you suggest me a free reverse engineering course

[marsh lark]

I don't know any

[feral whale]

Would be a cool project

[slow cloud]

i dont know how to make the ascii drawing but the command for the specs is neofetch

or fastfetch

you probably need to install it

[bitter rock]

can u dm me too

[short patrol]

hacking is illegal bro join as software engineer company where hr is more toxic then poison

[gray sonnet]

Hi, I’m stuck on this question:
How would you retrieve the items in the current directory with size greater than 100? (no quotes)
Whenever I paste the correct PowerShell command into the answer box it gets mangled (for example it turns into something like (Get-ChildItem | Where-Object {$_.Lengt h-gt10 0-- ---)), which prevents submission. I’ve tried different browsers, plain-text copy, and pasting from Notepad but it still breaks. Can someone please advise a workaround or mark this step manually? Thanks!

[marsh lark]

I can't imagine what you're using now

[ashen cape]

I had experience with both of them, mechanical ones are literally nicer to type with

[mossy river]

the fans on the computer have been driving me insane, plugged the AIO into the CPU header and it sounded like a jet engine everytime I tried to click something

[neat pond]

how much cost

[marsh lark]

time to get DKob on youtube

LOL

[mossy river]

Razer Hunstman v3 Pro

[ashen cape]

so basically a Razer fan? 🙂

[feral whale]

Get a keychron

[slow cloud]

razer is okay but i feel like you are paying more for the brandname

[ashen cape]

it is but when it gives you the comfort and the price is not that high for you

[feral whale]

Q1 60 i think

[mossy river]

Well, I liked having everything under one piece of software and I was happy with the quality, however I have more recently come to dislike the brand.

[ashen cape]

then... why not?

[mossy river]

They over charge for everything, always have issues with dials breaking and honestly their headsets are terrible

[slow cloud]

steelseries = best

[mossy river]

Steelseries is worse

[ashen cape]

What are the reasons? I only know some with high prices and that's all

[feral whale]

No Keychron

[ashen cape]

I was a Logitech fan for a while

[mossy river]

Razer is like the Apple of the peripherals world

[slow cloud]

whaaat naaah steelseries is good

never had issues

and when i did i got a free replacement

[ashen cape]

but now I'm giving more preference for quality based products instead of brand based

[mossy river]

I've had non-stop problems with steelseries, and both of my friends have also had non-stop problems with them

Their software is worse than some malware

[feral whale]

Okey bro get a keychron

Top notch

[slow cloud]

oh yeah i dont use the software

[ashen cape]

I had one mouse from China (I won't say the brand because it may be considered as promotion), it worked for 4-5 years and the sensor was one of the best in my opinion

[mossy river]

I think the Razer mouse I have is really good, but too high of cost

[ashen cape]

Malware analysis based on Steelseries software?

[marsh lark]

[ashen cape]

Can you share the link in DMs?

I would appreciate it

[ashen cape]

Steelseries are nice to type with but ik nothing about the software they have

[slow cloud]

i setup my leds on the keyboard and mouse, never touched the software again

[ashen cape]

I'm just surfing around electronic shops and trying every keyboard they have

Imo Corsair keyboards are good

[mossy river]

They're just named brands, there's a lot of good peripheral hardware which are much better in terms of quality, cost and software but they are a little more expensive than normal which puts people off

Can't remember the name off the top of my head

[bitter rock]

does it still exist? if it does dm pls

[mossy river]

2021 🙏

[bitter rock]

🥀

[feral whale]

U gaming too or only for typing?

[ashen cape]

It's like middle class?

[mossy river]

wooting

that's it

[ashen cape]

both but I think I won't see any difference

Because I'm Stardew Valley player

average "gamer"

lol

[feral whale]

Wooting as jabba said

[elder orbit]

hey people I am a beginner in cybersecurity and started out in the field 6 months ago,

I am into red teaming and web pentesting and I wanted to ask a question to the more experienced people here

what is the correct approach to solve rooms or CTFs, like what to do when I come across a tech stack I dont know about or an approach I have no idea of, what should i do?

[feral whale]

If u game

[rapid merlin]

Wow so many people active right now

[ashen cape]

I think you could use basic Cyber Kill Chain

Just to understand steps

random image

but it's basically what you need to do

[elder orbit]

I follow this methodology

[feral whale]

Bro u got Master rank

[ashen cape]

Ranks doesn't matter actually

I have Titan

I'm 18 bro

[feral whale]

I overread the 6months

[elder orbit]

The thing is that everytime i solve a room I have to sort of look at a writeup first to get the initial idea

[feral whale]

Nvm

[ashen cape]

I'm not like junior cybersecurity employee

[whole rapids]

relatable

[feral whale]

U are senior

[ashen cape]

I think it's based mostly on experience. If you didn't have an access to write-ups, what would you do?

Right, google some libraries or whatever to search for exploits

searchsploit?

[marsh lark]

for the initial idea, you gotta just keep searching (in basic words)

[ashen cape]

Also, google it

[marsh lark]

yes

that

[elder orbit]

for example iw as just solving a room

[marsh lark]

google

[ashen cape]

What ports are opened? maybe ftp? maybe other file sharing resources? no?

[whole rapids]

ranks dont make you a junior or senior, you could literally be top 10 worldwide while all you do is copy paste answers from writeups

[ashen cape]

Okay, is there any website? directory enum?

[elder orbit]

I do all that

[ashen cape]

nothing still?

[elder orbit]

I do that too

[ashen cape]

Try to analyze what they use?

[feral whale]

Bro i said i overread the 6months

[ashen cape]

wordpress? use wpscan

maybe is there plugins to exploit

[elder orbit]

I know all that stuff

[ashen cape]

It's like you're weaponizing every single time

But tbh you can't recall everything you have

[feral whale]

Yeah but aren‘t u wasting ur time

With that

[elder orbit]

For eg I just ran into a block where I couldn't figure the initial step to enumerate, I ran directory scans, port scans but I had to then refer to a writeup and turns out the target was LFI vulnerable

[ashen cape]

You can't know if there's deserialization problem or broken JWTs

[gray sonnet]

That's the Lockheed Martin cyber kill chain

[rapid merlin]

Medium .com

[whole rapids]

i know but some people just care about the numbers

[gray sonnet]

not random 😄

[whole rapids]

real

[ashen cape]

Random image*

I said it above ig

[feral whale]

Me too but bank balance wise

[ashen cape]

I didn't use it from THM that's why I mentioned it

[gray sonnet]

I know what you said, that's why I'm correcting you

[ashen cape]

wha?

I said that is a random image of CKC

nvm

[elder orbit]

but then the writeup stated that some sort of php filtered LFI was used

now I know LFI but didnt know that PHP filtered LFI existed

so what to do in those cases

[ashen cape]

Maybe you could define it by looking at url? idk exactly what room you're doing

[gray sonnet]

@mossy river how've you been?

do you mind if I DM you about something?

[elder orbit]

Red it is

[marsh lark]

well, if you don't know something, go learn it

[whole rapids]

this is how ctfs work, you just cant know everything and then solve every ctf out there

[ashen cape]

Mostly there are rooms at THM that explaining that possibility

[marsh lark]

at some cases

you won't be able to solve a room

and thats ok

[ashen cape]

^^

[marsh lark]

you can keep learning and following THM's roadmap

and maybe come back at some point

[elder orbit]

So do I put it in my notes if i find anything new

[ashen cape]

Yes

[elder orbit]

i mean, simply abandoning that room sounds bad to me

[ashen cape]

You need your notes everytime

[marsh lark]

its not

you won't be able to solve a machine every single time

and that is normal

[ashen cape]

I have some rooms that I abandoned long time ago because I didn't know about AD enough

[marsh lark]

for instance, in HTB hard challenges, people take weeks to just solve the one challenge

[ashen cape]

like theory okay but same methodology and whatever was still a mystery for me

and it's okay

[elder orbit]

I have been doing a lot of rooms everyday in the last 6 months but I have mainly solved the easy ones till now only

[feral whale]

Note taking takes more time than the actual action 🥀

[elder orbit]

true

[marsh lark]

doesn't mean you shouldn't write notes

[feral whale]

Yes yes

Ofc not

Its just annoying sometimes

[marsh lark]

well, you keep learning

[elder orbit]

Hence the Master rank if you ask

I do a lot of walkthroughs too so,

[ashen cape]

I'm trying to update some write ups at my github but it's fr so long

I even created a separate chat with ChatGPT just to organize it more better

[elder orbit]

I have been solving PG Play nowadays

[slow cloud]

Taking notes are the best thing you can do

[ashen cape]

I'm taking some brief notes

and then supply them to GPT

it's actually okay to bring them in order by doing it

imo

[ashen cape]

ikr

[mossy river]

Go for it

[ashen cape]

btw SOC L1 path is literally xp giveaway

I really boosted my rank by doing some rooms from it

[elder orbit]

I take nearly the same notes as the theory on THM's walkthroughs

I never use gpt for notetaking

[ashen cape]

"some" 🥀

[ashen cape]

I'm using it to bring them in order

just for that

[elder orbit]

I use Obsidian to organize everything

[ashen cape]

because my notes like:

• did that with that to achieve that

[ashen cape]

Good approach

[gray sonnet]

I’m about to head home right now, will ping you once I’m home, it’s related to THM haa

[elder orbit]

I started maintaining a public gitbook for notes and writeups

[mossy river]

No problemo Vain

[elder orbit]

it helps me be more careful in making my notes

[marsh lark]

Jabba, vmware is sooooooo much better than vbox lol

[mossy river]

Yuup

[marsh lark]

no lag, no errors

[elder orbit]

Yeah true

I learnt that the hard way

especially workstation pro

[marsh lark]

me too

downloading ubuntu 7 times on vbox

[mossy river]

the argument used to be "Vbox is free, don't complain" but now they're both free so

[marsh lark]

[marsh lark]

yes

exactly

[ashen cape]

VBox is okay by me

I can't complain so far

[mossy river]

Have you tried VMware?

[ashen cape]

I didn't that's why I'm writing it

:P

[elder orbit]

yeah i mean as far as someone hasn't used vmware, vbox will work fine

[mossy river]

Try it and see if your opinion persists

[ashen cape]

what are the difference btw

[rapid merlin]

I used vbox too

[marsh lark]

I've personally experienced less lag and much less errors, booting is faster as well

[ashen cape]

booting 🥀

okay I understand that point

[topaz sedge]

@elder orbit I answered your question in HTB server

[marsh lark]

I had to download ubuntu 7 times or more on vbox just to realize I set my video memory to 16 mb (I didn't set it, vbox set it)

[mossy river]

@plucky shore Hello?

[ashen cape]

I'm avoiding it with tea

[mossy river]

If they don't respond I'm going to ban them

[plucky shore]

yup

[topaz sedge]

What did they say

[mossy river]

Just different hypervisors made by different people

[mossy river]

Why are you just randomly posting referral links?

[ashen cape]

I created a task to check it later

I will say my opinion afterwards :P

[plucky shore]

okay, sorry!
I don't know it's illegal here

[mossy river]

It's not "illegal", just questionable and obvious that you're only using our community for personal financial gain

[marsh lark]

I like my ubuntu background 😁

[topaz sedge]

So using the community for financial gain is wrong?
Got it.

[ashen cape]

btw it's my personal question on some SOC experts. Why are people using a lot of different programs for EDR?

[topaz sedge]

Won't do it again /jk

[ashen cape]

like KAPE, Redline and whatever

is there any massive benefits?

[plucky shore]

sorry for that

[mossy river]

Generally posting referral links isn't allowed as it's obviously just for you to benefit yourself.

I'd usually let it slide if the user posting them is active and the thing they're posting is actually relevant to the conversation

[topaz sedge]

Fair enough

[marsh lark]

got neofetch, time to customize

[ashen cape]

wow I forgot I achieved that

[marsh lark]

yooo, congrats 🙂

I'm close to 180

[ashen cape]

ty

[glossy holly]

I would like to participate in hackathons and CTF, but I need to study and Security Analyst, Security Engineer?

[ashen cape]

Some of CTFs do have security based tasks (Wireshark or DFIR) and sometimes is good to know this aspects

[glossy holly]

I have to go all the way roadmap for practice ?

[glossy holly]

thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @ashen cape (current: #1097 - 5)

[ashen cape]

You can use THM paths to practice some aspects (or modules to be more specific)

https://roadmap.sh/cyber-security

It's just for basic knowledge what you want to achieve

[neat pond]

THANKS

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @ashen cape (current: #961 - 6)

[west bolt]

🤓

[marsh lark]

is that neofetch?!

[west bolt]

fastfetch

[glossy holly]

okeyy

[west bolt]

tbh fastfetch is better than neo

[marsh lark]

downloading rn

[west bolt]

ahah but you have to custom it a bit

[marsh lark]

okidoki

[feral whale]

I love this site

Its actually insane

[rapid merlin]

Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @ashen cape (current: #863 - 7)

[feral whale]

I declare myself immune to bans

Deal with it

[ashen cape]

Declaration of immunity?

Something new

[feral whale]

I identify as unbanned

[feral whale]

Better to declare immunity than the 4th great ninja war

[marsh lark]

this is correct for ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS, right?

[west bolt]

sudo apt install fastfetch

[marsh lark]

on ubuntu?

[ashen cape]

Ig it will work

[marsh lark]

I tried this method

but can't seem to find the config file

[feral whale]

I can send u ubuntu_apt_installer.py

[rapid merlin]

apt install neofetch

[feral whale]

Gives u access to my Home Network

[ashen cape]

Debian / Ubuntu: Download fastfetch-linux-<proper architecture>.deb from Github release page and double-click it (for Ubuntu 20.04 or newer and Debian 11 or newer).

okay actually it needs to be installed directly

sorry

[marsh lark]

yup, so I did that

but still can't seem to find the config file

[ashen cape]

My mistake

config?

[marsh lark]

yes

[feral whale]

Config for what?

[marsh lark]

fastfetch?

[feral whale]

Sry I was in brainrot mode

[marsh lark]

LOL

[feral whale]

Let me debug this

[marsh lark]

cuz

[ashen cape]

So you did install fastfetch or what?

[marsh lark]

I did

but

[ashen cape]

I'm also in brainrot mode

[ashen cape]

and there's no of it yes?

[marsh lark]

there is no fastfetch directory in .config

[ashen cape]

fastfetch --gen-config

[marsh lark]

not sure what you're asking

oh

[ashen cape]

I did it beforehand

I was just in brainrot mode sorry

[feral whale]

https://www.reddit.com/r/GarudaLinux/s/3cSCMirQvV

try this one

He explains missing config

[marsh lark]

you just needed to do the command lol

I thoguth it was for smth else

[ashen cape]

🙏

My brain was off for a while

[feral whale]

Bonkinan the debug professional

[ashen cape]

because I didn't get what the problem actually was lol

[marsh lark]

so

[feral whale]

I kaZe declare u Bonkinan the strongest troubleshooter of em all

[marsh lark]

how do I set this config file to connect to the fastfetch command?

or

does it automatically do that

[feral whale]

I think its explained in the reddit post i‘ve sent

He says something about deleting the old one

[ashen cape]

not sure but fastfetch --config

[feral whale]

And running fastfetch command again

[ashen cape]

and then defining it

but also after generating it you don't need to define config

because it will use that as default

[marsh lark]

😭

how do I fix the emoji problem?

[ashen cape]

emojis 🥀

[ashen cape]

Ig the problem is the terminal font

I can't remember which need to be used

[marsh lark]

nerd fonts?

thats mentioned in the reddit post

[ashen cape]

yes

it is

[feral whale]

Yes Nerd is correct

[feral whale]

And make sure to set utf-8 encoding

[marsh lark]

wut is that

[feral whale]

Encoding

[marsh lark]

-# I'm a noob at this

[marsh lark]

yes, I know what encoding is

but what do you mean by "set utf-8 encoding"?

-# maybe I don't know what encoding is

[ashen cape]

echo $LC_CTYPE to check your encoding rn

[feral whale]

Fastfetch is using utf-8

If ur terminal used another encoding

The emojis and icons break

[ashen cape]

nothing?

what

[marsh lark]

uhh

yeah

[feral whale]

U can check ur encoding of the terminal with

locale

If something else than utf-8 run this command

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

[marsh lark]

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

that is what it says

so

[ashen cape]

it's already

[marsh lark]

I should be fine right

[feral whale]

Okey terminal encoding is correct

[ashen cape]

yes

[feral whale]

U can do this

[loud orbit]

Bro

[feral whale]

Does ur config have a showIcons=true/false setting?

[marsh lark]

for fastfetch? or...

[feral whale]

Yep

[marsh lark]

one sec

I don't see any "showIcons"

[feral whale]

showEmojis?

[marsh lark]

nope

[feral whale]

Just run this command

fastfetch --set "display.showIcons=false"

[marsh lark]

unkown option --set

[feral whale]

If everything looks fine, without the icons

Huh

[ashen cape]

are you already using nerd fonts

right?

[marsh lark]

nyo

[feral whale]

Idk if it works for ubuntu

[marsh lark]

not yet

[feral whale]

U can install nerd fonts

Using sudo apt install fonts-firacode

[ashen cape]

yes

just use nerd fonts

because Ig this icons are defined by the font

not encoded ones

[feral whale]

Nerd fonts should fix the whole issue

[marsh lark]

now, how do I set them

restart terminal?

[feral whale]

What terminal are u using

?

Kitty?

[marsh lark]

just normal ubuntu terminal

gnome

[feral whale]

Preferences > Profile > Text > Custom font > pick a Nerd Font

[marsh lark]

how do I know what is a nerd font or not?

I also don't see much different fonts than the normal ones

S

[feral whale]

Those ain‘t nerd fonts

[marsh lark]

well, yeah

[feral whale]

They got nerd font as suffix

Or nf

[marsh lark]

I don't see any

[feral whale]

https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts
cd ~/.local/share/fonts

unzip ~/Downloads/FiraCode.zip -d ~/.local/share/fonts/

[ashen cape]

or just use github

[feral whale]

Refresh the font cache

fc-cache -fv

[marsh lark]

I'll do these after I eat

dinner

[ashen cape]

I actually lost the sense of this tutorial 🙀

[slow cloud]

whats the difference

[boreal scarab]

No wonder I dont remember typing that message... that was 2 years ago lol

[slow cloud]

oh your messing around with nerdfonts donut

thats fun

takes a little getting used to but when you know how it works its easy

[ashen cape]

I wanted to advice install it directly to cache

but I didn't want to mix all things up

lol

[feral whale]

Send alternative

I will send nothing

[boreal scarab]

@bitter rock

https://start.me/p/DPYPMz/the-ultimate-osint-collection

I got more info now lol

[ashen cape]

Pt

You already sent the way

I wanted to send

[boreal scarab]

But good on you for looking up my old message. Proud of you

[feral whale]

Ahh okey thought u had a shorter approach

[rapid merlin]

neofetch?

[slow cloud]

fastfetch

[ashen cape]

keyboards you sent are fire but not the price I wanted 😭

and also numpad is significant for me

[feral whale]

Yeah they are insane but pricy 😪

[feral whale]

They got 100% models

[slow cloud]

numpad is best

[regal steeple]

does this mean i cant wget and curl and the machinen network is down

is there any use in restarting the machine?

[slow cloud]

is that a vm?

or your host machine

[regal steeple]

ya

machine for a room

[slow cloud]

you might just have "no internet" this means that it does not have connection to wide web, but still has access to local machines like other THM machines on the local network

[rapid merlin]

I see Liara from mass effect as well.

[bitter rock]

tyvm 🫡

[boreal scarab]

You're very welcome! If you have any questions at all, let me know!

[slow cloud]

i have one

Next question

[feral whale]

This

[regal steeple]

but its still at 0

[bitter rock]

aye aye good sir

[feral whale]

Isn‘t thm always 10.10?

[ashen cape]

it is?

[feral whale]

Or am i stupid right now

[ashen cape]

I have 10.21...

[slow cloud]

usually

but i think they have a range

[ashen cape]

when u use openvpn

[regal steeple]

10.201.X.X/16

[ashen cape]

only the first 10 is unchangeable

[feral whale]

Never used the attackbox

[slow cloud]

can you ping the machine?

[feral whale]

I always get 10.10

[regal steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/bittensor-subnet-tao-toy-story-buzz-gif-1467857794778875549

i reset the linux terminal connection

its workin

but the only problem is i cant extend the machines

Hello Timo!

[ripe sleet]

Hello Aaron!

[sand trench]

shadow generally reads all the responses..... don't really reply to most of them though when it comes to sleep messages

[slow cloud]

hiiii darkfly and aaron

[sand trench]

YAY secure boot is finally set up

[ripe sleet]

Hello Shadow!

[sand trench]

ello darkfly

[ripe sleet]

How was your sleep?

[chilly veldt]

Sup sup

[sand trench]

good enough

[ripe sleet]

Hello Bella!

[sand trench]

overslept missing an appointment so yeah

which will cost shadow a total of about 10 usd

still nice to have gotten some good sleepies

https://github.com/Foxboron/sbctl/wiki/FQ0001

so this is funny

i.e msi is doing security theater

and some linux peeps figured it out

[feral whale]

Would have been great to see apple silicon chips

[sand trench]

well apple handles things like secure boot in their own way as it is their hardware

[feral whale]

I rlly want to install linux on my m2

But not asahi

😪

I hate apple for being so extra

[west bolt]

Fastfetch is faster, actively maintained, more modular, and has better detection
Neofetch is abandoned and slower

fast is write in C, neo in bash

[rough pond]

afternoon all, does anyone have any good resources that I use to learn python, preferably free lol

[slow cloud]

ive heard good things about freecodecamp

havent used it myself

[west bolt]

w3school lol

[mellow smelt]

Hi,
Anyone has attempted this?
https://portal.offsec.com/assessments/web-application-level-1-assessment-212434/attempts/212434

[feral whale]

Doesn‘t python itself have a free course on their website?

[rough pond]

do they ?

[feral whale]

I remember they do

Let me look it up

[neat pond]

it does training ?

[feral whale]

what are your opinion about CodeWars?
