Suddenly I opened my computer I saw windows or ubuntu
i got a 128gb SSD
I feel an urge to play Counter Strike before I defend my thesis instead of read

Bye
Does anyone know how I can get ahold of the people at TryHackMe to see about a partnership with my Cybersecurity/Tech discord community ?
In what way?
I use it too, haven't published much lately but using it for the last 4 years
its solid and easy to set up. the annoying part its email newsletters where you need to sign up with mailgun
but I really like the subscription and how it works seamless with subscriptions and payments
doing pretty good on FTP rooms so far I guess because Im a blogger and amatuer webmaster for hobby lol
Dose it use MySQL 8
can't recall i run it in a container
No worries, anymore info on it you can give me? Maybe something more detailed?
their github and help pages are pretty solid if you want technical details
copy
I'm just a regular user haven't changed much to the underlying themes
it literally takes 5 minutes to set up on bare bones
Im more so looking for exploitation, but anything helps
instead of typing i edited my text, sorry
give it a go let me know if there's anything I need to worry about π«‘
From what I have gathered over the past hour (despite certain da`s in other servers). Ghost 6.5 should be using MySQL 8
From what info I have gathered
Since starting few hours ago
guys im doing a koth so if i disconnect the vpn will it kick me out of the room?
Partnership for my community in some way. Love to talk details and possibilities.
If you are using a VPN to connect too a service, and you disconnect the VPN, you will no longer be connected to the service
well im currently the top on the room and i gotta go so i have to turn off my pc
will it kick me out of the room? the other got 0 point
I'm not part of THM, was just curious.
I've been dealing with THM since 2021
I have a good idea on their operations
i love hacking ppl
im in a casual relationship with hacking but we're not putting labels on it
doing alright. u?
Gave +1 Rep to @sturdy sequoia (current: #354 - 22)
Guys I'm saying the truth while I downloaded the wsl it been time and I found dual boot ubuntu how this happen
What brings you here?
No idea. There was a promo on recently though so it does go on sale sometimes
Sorry, I don't really understand what you're asking
Do you know who I can reach out to?
dont use google translate use chatgpt
You can check the user list for THM people
If you get hired from a cert here and they find out you didnt pay for a sub, they will make you work for free since you wanted to learn for free
stupid companies
There is a way, it's called money π€£
There's still a lot of free rooms in thm. I don't have a sub
Nothing in life is free
The best things in life are free
That's what they want you to believe
Oh, you're just trolling
ME??
no
things cost money man
For instance, the highly sought after certifications in the field are expensive
if you want something that cost money and you don't have a job, the first step is get a job not asking things for free. Also there is a lot of free resources for people that can't or don't want to pay, so why you should get pay resources that take time, effort and are the livelihood of people just for free.
College, the best colleges are EXPENSIVE
I've heard stories all the time about immigrants coming to the US poor as can be and making a big business and succeeding against all odds
Why such hostility
new person comes in, asks if there are ever any giveaways, chat goes crazy
if you post here, I can comment, don't like the answer that's your problem
You dont need moeny to hack, maybe for equipment n such, but to hack hack? No...
Once the staff see your humble request for a few free months to better yourself, they will surely be moved by your polite and caring demeanor. I'm certain they will want to help you out as much as possible.
And you seem to think you score high in both of those.
This Discord has been like this for maybe 2 years now
I arrived too late to witness the great cyber experts joke around and talk in here about exploits
But I have heard stories about it
This place was def a lot more chill back in like, 2021 - mid-2024
2021 - 2023
Word of advice, when you join a 'professional community', people are bound to share opinions, while they may not reflect your own, you are expected to understand and steer clear of anything that discomforts you, rather than retorting with hostility.
Unless you are being threatened, then by all means open the flood gates
π
So true vigor..
Damn HTB more rude ... He asked HTB how to verify and everyone is ignoring him
HTB sucks.. Why? Their US servers are so so slow
This isn't a professional community
Def not lol
Oh god lol
yer there are lots of trolls here. just ignore them. after you have all the usuals ignored, this channel is a lot more bearable

hi squad
Do you play AC?
how is everyone on this beautiful night
animal crossing?!?!!?
Animal Crossing? Yea, at times
You mean the constant influx of 'how can i hack my ex' ?
No. Assassins Creed.
and all the shit posters, meme spammers, sarcasic answerers
black flag was so good
Do you have a Nintendo Switch?
I sold it
I'm only sarcastic when people don't read the rules or expect everything in life to be handed to them.

HAHA
Nope
Not even
But that means
exactly if you come here nagging, with a sob story and asking things for free, nobody would take you seriously. If you change your approach you'll get different answer to every action there a reaction like my friend Newton once said π
Someone using me sht
I agree
True.
Ah yes, newton. He is a wise man.
Im PC and Nintendo
I'm guessing you're on steam.
wise doesn't even begin to describe his geniusness
You trying to ID me? xP
I'm trying to not run away from a challenge yes.
But he did get gravity wrong .... it is not a force
ALright, game, yes I am on Steam. But that is the last hint you will get :P
!?
gravity is just aura
@quick blaze I'm confuse, are you blue? red? green? all the above π€£
It seems my name has gotten even more confusing. π€£
redsky teambluebull
That doesn't sound right.
OSINT on me isnt hard, tbvh. It will take effort tho
bleuSky GreenBull #teamred
Ffs vigor.
LOL
Or, I could choose to spare myself the pain, and waste my time and energy elsewhere.
I have no incentive anyways.
Eh? What for?
You said challenge lol
whattt what happened to goodboi π
You talkin about the $200?
goodboi died
He died.
stop lmao
I don't reckon I'm getting 200$...
there is only BadBoi now
For finding out your damn name π
Thats what I offered
Yeah, I don't really believe it.
I actually would and then ask what you did
Giveaways are not frequent. When they do appear, they're in #announcements or #community-announcements.
I have a feeling this user is going to leave a bad remark about us on reddit and then jabba's gonna come yell at all of us.
Huh.
So no challenge? xP
I really like how we have the same baiting tricks, yet our OPSEC bibles have only slight ideological variations. π
No bait, game, either a yes or a no. :)
Gave +1 Rep to @quick blaze (current: #66 - 157)
a lot of sass for somebody who just come to the place, what about start to been part of a community, and do something useful, make a contribution before asking for things. I've been here for a long time, what about if you don't contribute move along π
I'm not wasting my time bruteforcing a multitude of profiles when there isn't anything definitive to go off of, so basically, I need a hint. π
You already had one
Or no bait.
I already knew you were on steam.
No, I knew you were on steam, I do not have your bloody profile.
Ffs.
Do I reaallllllyyyy wanna do this though....
I'm not guaranteed the 200$...
π§
If you can honestly do it, yes
Through paypal most likely
Unless you want crypto, we can do that too
I don't use paypal. π
Crypto it is
Bitcoin, Etheruim, whatever. Name it and it'll happen. But I want that full name
First should be easy, middle and last will be more difficult
First, Last, Middle.. In that order
Of difficulty
You have 3 days
Oct 27th at 5 PM PST
Thats your dealine
Alright. You better pay up.
Better find my full name
Cause I wanna know
Again, FULL NAME. that is First, Middle, and Last
Simmer down, I'll get on it. Zzzzzzz.
Rest up, you got way more than enough time :)
Should take a day, two at most. To figure this out about me
He's not searching your name anywhere, he's serching for nsa login
I'm just saying...if you don't pay up..it's going up on a few questionable DBs. NOTHING
π
I'll give ya credit, but I want that name
Crypto
To be fair I don't care as long as he $'s up. π
Picks a random person and pretends to be him
Done it before
doesn't pay up now you are targeting a stranger
Ssshhh....
Yeah, you give him someone elses full name and say you are n't paying
Cause he'll know my name lol
and then he targets the other persoin
He'll know
Vigor, we're whitehats remember?
Not if you tell him that he guessed it right but it was wrong
He'll know
and then he goes for that person to collect
Trust me, he will know
VIGOR WE'RE WHITEHATS DAMN ITTTTT
you threatened he better pay up bleu
Well if he doesn't then...
π΅π½ββοΈ
He pays with my full name
Hmmm
Better get started, clock ticking
I gave you a deadline
Zzz.
ALRIGHT ALRIGHT I WON'T DO THAT
PDT, PST isn't till november
PST = Pacific Standard Time
Which starts Novmeber 2
we are on PDT Pacific Daylight Time
We're in Asia vigor.
Oh.
he lives 10 miles from me
Then why's he going on about PST.
The hell.
Pacific Standard Time
You diont know that
Nope
See, thats 3 hints so far
Not going to happen
Let him figure it out
Both of ya xP
'Both'?
'him'? π€
Its 6:00 PM PST
I'm just watching prime vid
Clock ticking
No it's 6:00 PM PDT
Close enough
I gotta go to a conference in like an hour, I'll be home back in 10 hours.
not P S T
Sadly.
thats the difference
Its daylight savings already?
It ends november 2
Clock dont stop
You got 3 days
71 Hours from now yes?
DM me the answer, and you will win
I'm gonna run my own timer, setting up 70 hours 58 minutes now..
Oct 27th 5PM PDT
Yeah yeah
bleu doesn't know where I live chain
Vegas...
He learning
Las Vegas, NM
Its a good sign
oops
it sure is
He's in NM
It's a lot easier to just say Las Vegas because NV, NM, close enough when people are all over the globe
and less US people here, so ilet them think that lol
sounds cool
Close enough to not get confused
That's like saying the US and Russia are 4 kilometers apart. π€£
Better DM me your answer, post it in the chat and it wont count for obv reasons
hahah no, the us and russia are about 80km apart
I KNOW DUDE CALM DOWN.
There's those little islands no?
not 4, but not too far off i uess
Lol xP
That are separated by the international date line?
I'm not talking about the Bering strait.
Yeah those.
closest gap between russia and us is there
Diomade big is owned by Russia. And Diomade small is owned by the US.
And there's a 3 mile gap there.
π
Then whats the shortest distance between Diomede and Las Vegas, NM
Well I don't know, google maps it or something π§
I want evidence too, so don't forget screenshots
Dude.
I know.
Calm the fuck down.
Seems like a nice suburbs you live in, vigor.
Definitely
@oblique loom Dude you are so old.
ππ
Cool
Weak tolerance.................~
I just called you old.
You have weak tolerance.
Being old is just a state of mind
Could be anywhere from Mid-Late 20's / Early 30's now.
So are you
That is vagued as fck
WHY.
LOL
I mean. I haven't seen anything definite.
Fking teenager lol
That's still old in the perspective of a 15 year old
Shut up man I have more tolerance than you.
I mean, I am 22
Yeah no you're uh. Late 20s now.
Goddamn it.
Trying to rush me isn't gonna work, I can see the bait from 4 continents away.
Time aint stoppin
See
Grown ass man saying "^_^" btw.
Genuine question though; what's your job role right now?
4 years in the field, seems pretty nice, how's the work life?
IT Admin
Huh./
LMAO
Not even
More than that
Still in IT then..? π
you might see him perform in the theater
No
As a clown I'm assuming?
No
Let's not doxx people in chat, it's illegal
The fuck
He wants to be doxxed.
28 29 lmao
You said your age was okay.
Age is fine, but you gussed wrong. Everything else, DM
What the hell is this supposed to mean then.
Am I just fundamentally bad at..MATH?
Maybe
You are right, really, but this teenager wants to prove something. I'll let him have the glory tho
I can see the bait. Again.
You right
Plus, gotta focus on other stuff
Na, you are right
I forgot what I was trying to do
Something about a HTML page
I'm waiting for another beer
Food is good too
I might get me something in a bit
Been gone for a couple of days and now my desktop won't boot
Hi guys
Yaaaaaay
How are you
I updated my Kali linux recently. And the HDMI output ehen the ghost and had to fix it x.x
HDMI not working or what hy
Na, it was the update. It did something that I had to repair software wise
Okay
What are you up to
Enjoying my Friday. Working on a pentest that I dont really wanna do... But atst, fk it
Be friends
Its a stupid pentest and idk if I can do it since attack surface is so smol
I can... Maybe.. Maybe... Get a SQL injection going... But the chances of that failing are high. Haven't tried yet tho, so eho knows.
That's a good question.
I forgot about teams.
What what
Idk, the guy wants to join a team.
I read teams, thought microsoft teams and proceeded to shudder
I mean I dislike it because it's microsoft but it could be worse
There's always jitsi π€£
I'll be honest, not a huge fan of jitsi, but at least it's more bearable than Teams.
Depends, if it works, great. If not π
Out of interest, what's the largest amount of people you've had on a jitsi call?
In my experience once you hit about 15 jitsi can start throwing a bit of a wobbly
I've only used it for appointments. What I don't like about it mainly is the UI.
(appointments being 1-1)
Ah fair, yeah 1-1 tends to be fine and the issues I've seen with it could be problems on our end but I'm not the most fond of it π€£
worse than microsoft? I don't think there is such thing π π€£
It depends, while I don't like microsoft, if it works it works π€·ββοΈ
I'd rather bite the bullet and settle for a company I don't like as long as the software just works (as a business at least)
it depends what do you mean by working for the end user maybe, for IT department it's a nightmare π
From an IT perspective, jitsi's probably more work for us and for the end user it's also more work π€£
We have both teams and Jitsi
We switch laptops though for teams, and only tend to use teams for meetings outside the team or when jitsi shits itself π€£
I worked on a all in microsoft company, and I can't tell you the amount of times that meetings were suspended because the effing teams had issues, that's just one example from the top of my head
Yeah that's fair, we use both but generally for different things as long as theyre both working as intended, otherwise we usually end up on teams as a fallback
if the meeting was a must have we fallback to google meet, because zoom had 30 minutes cap
I'm reading the windows internals book currently and I just realised why windows eats more ram when I upgrade the memory
Yikes π€£ if all options are down we default to signal to complain about everything being down
Windows internal book? Which one, cuz there's many.
The one released by microsoft, it's Windows Internals Part 1 (System architecture, processes, threads, memory management and more), 7th edition
the truth is that windows sucks but has the largest portion of the market so the company sees the money coming so there is no incentive for a real improvement, just a few band-aids here and there
I didn't realise that they stuck with the same method of memory management as in 32 bit but just increased the address space to allow a greater theoretical maximum. So if you have 64gb, 32gb is assigned by windows to OS protected memory and 32gb is used for processes. It doesn't seem to be strictly true but it seems to be that way when you're not running memory intensive processes (mind you I'm still reading through the memory section)
Yeah for sure, unfortunately it does tend to just work for a lot of software that I enjoy
Noted, gonna add that to my collection.
It's a long read but it does seem quite informative and it's not too dull a read
my point exactly incentive for a real improvement π€£
I've been reading and writing notes for ~2 hours and am 58 pages in.. The full book is ~1580 pages π€£
I think that's the case for a lot of things now though, it's "well we've got more memory so it doesn't matter if we use it"
Since performance has increased, optimisation appears to have decreased
@cloud quiver can I bother you to unlink my old account?
The exception to that rule is GPU and CPU manufacturers who will pay to have their optimised instructions used, not for the betterment of user experience but purely to make them look like they perform better (which they in software that uses the proprietary instructions). Software manufacturers don't optimise unless a hardware provider pays them to do it
That looks like me reading IEEE docs and RFC π€£
Been there π€£
My dissertation involved reading various IEEE 802 and 802.11 documents
it was interesting but very painful
no, how dare YOU for not being here!
oh hey you're here
go away so i can ping you for not being here
Mind you it was still more interesting than reading the book teaching the AWS Certified Cloud Practicioner course
That was a diabolical read, I've never been so bored in my life, got to a point I was reading through the sections backwards because it was so dull
I having a bit of time on my hands since I'm on sabbatical so I'm doing the CCNA
A shedload of it was on billing and my honest reaction was just "π" as someone who doesn't deal with billing
ooh nice, good luck!
thing is, my previous work paid for my AWS certification (~Β£100) so I thought I should do it and then actually had to do the reading π€£
@molten sky how are you?
Also, fuck pearson, the pre-exam check was diabolical work
fuck pearson x2
lmao i need a vacation again
work is such a fucking pain in the neck rn, and my other guy is on vaca so i'm double stacked
I started the AWS Certified Cloud Practicioner as well as CCNA a while ago, but I couldn't finish for work and personal issues, so since I have time now I'm doing the CCNA and maybe I'll do the AWS afterwards
Site said "use wired internet, it's reliable", "use only one monitor". I turned off all electronics, showed them the disconnected plugs and lack of power on my amp and monitors and they said "I need you to actually unplug it on the appliance side" and then they asked me to take my laptop to the other side of the room to show them the desk, my ethernet cable is cable managed and is not meant to reach the other side of my room, had I known they wre going to ask that I'd have used WiFi
CCNA seems way more interesting
yep, vacation are great, tell me about it π€£
CCP is a bit about knowing every one of their million different services, their shared responsibility model, their different tiers and and their billing management
it is, I love networks, so I'm down to basics now
I'd cry.
Like, I don't need to know each service, I can google it, the shared responsibility model is simple, the tiers are pointless within a business where you're not dictating the choice and billing management and compliance are pointless for an intern/entry level job to know
And the way all the different AI services are named π there's fucking millions
i absolutely refuse to to do remote testing --- always onsite (at least we have that option here)
I did. Briefly..
I have some experience in networks, but I wanted to hammer the basics down before going to CCNP
Yeah, I didn't have the option unfortunately otherwise I'd refuse remote testing, only exception is when I eventually do my radio license, I am not trekking an hour to the nearest exam centre for the radio society π€£
Yeah nah that's fair, good solid foundation to build on
idk if y'all have ever seen the crisc logo but it's in a big circle O like all the ISACA certs are --- so i always think of crisco
I've never paid for a certification in my life, and I may one day but for now work can pay for them if they want me to do them, otherwise I'll continue saving for a house π€£
As well, I had to do my aws certification for an aws account with email tagging because my email is banned from AWS because my card expired and I forgot to update it and instead of contacting me they just went "OMG he's trying to get free tier without card" and banned me π
oh no! he almost tried to get away with paying for nothing with nothing!
I rang them and said, "I don't even have any charges, I don't have any services running can I appeal it and update my debit card??" they said no and to create another account, they can't delete the account because it's banned and they can't reinstate my account, it's crazy
I'm also doing a few courses in AI and playing with LLMs AI is here to stay you can't deny. The way I see it, the major revolution in tech was the internet, nowadays is AI, also I see the same pattern all these AI companies looks a lot like the .com bubble π€£
I have strong words to define them and I'll refrain on here but it's purely because if you exceed their free-tier allowances they charge the card you signed up with. Again though, I literally ran nothing on it because I forgot about it π€£
Fair enough, for the most part I still steer clear, I'd spend more time redacting stuff to use LLMs and am excellent at googling things. I also still feel that if we're going to use AI it needs to be trained specifically for the task it's being used for and that ideally we wouldn't use LLMs but figure out a form of AI that is more than just a sentient chat bot and could provide better functionality
I use LLM because of privacy reasons, deepseek and dolphin are pretty good
Like I think some of the co-pilot stuff has promise but the fact it's still remote hosted and an LLM is offputting to me, I need to know my data is safe and that the software isn't just trying to talk to me rather than give me a correct answer]
prob better than vercel tho
I deployed nextjs stuff on AWS so I've no experience with vercel π€£
I do only local LLM
from a business perspective I like AWS other than the fact that all cloud providers effectively lock you into the ecosystem with propietary services; however, from a personal perspective, fuck AWS π€£
ngl i use aws personally as well but their billing is wack af
getting billed per hosted zone even, before counting the number of queries made
Yeah that's fair, I could, I just don't bother, my google-fu is down to a fine art now so I feel like I'd waste more time waiting on outputs to generate and then trying to correct it than if I use google and decide which answer fits best and tweak it accordingly
I installed ollama models on my computer and use a web interface docker to make it nicer, if you need to upload docs terminal is not the best place
I do use some of their stuff personally and yeah, it's wack as fuck
I hate that I pay 15-20 quid for a domain and then the cheeky bastards have the balls to charge me 64p a month just for having a hosted zone with them
Yeah that's fair
what do you have running it, and what's your util like? been curious about spinning one up. but i also hate "AI" so haven't yet
I've played with ollama and it is quite cool, it's just that I could wait 5-10 seconds on code generation or I could get a google result in 0.5 seconds
My favourite use for AI is if I'm struggling to find things online about a subject, I can say to AI, "give me a list of ISBNs and book names relating to this"
I don't bother with sites (with ai that can't access the internet) because they may be out of date, ISBNs are generally a safe option, but if they can access the web, I will ask for URLs as well and it can be handy for finding resources. I used it in second year uni digital forensics module to find some niche information about the JPEG standard, it was in the documentation but it was quite obscure to find so it was quite beneficial
Yeah it's definitely the way to do it if you're gonna use LLMs imo
you install ollama and the a webui docker
I don't hate AI, AI is a tool like anything. The problem nowadays is that a lot of people use chatgpt instead of their brain. I use AI as a tool to help me, not to think for me π
but like, any hardware min? i'm sure it depends on the model used?
working in sec, I see AI as nothing more than job security so far lmao
which ai is this
As a devops engineer, AI is the bane of my existence
at my previous job I inherited code that had been vibecoded by someone who didn't know how to code at all
is a LLM and the name is written right there π€£
lovely lad but not a single one of his projects worked and the code base for each of them was awful
us this deepseek or openwebui it is
we have several tools like that and instead of maintaining them i literally just said ima rewrite them properly
servers are being spun up as we speak to do so
Baring in mind I was already a very busy intern with 6 concurrent projects, each for different teams and each team wanting theirs to be a priority π€£
Inheriting non-functional and poorly written code-bases was less than helpful
just be happy you don't deal with regulators, lol
I did that with one, it wasn't vibecoded to be fair but the lad was learning AWS when he wrote it but the spec was effectively pre-meditated scopecreep so he never had chance to clean it up. I inherited it and said to my boss, I don't want to touch this with a 20 yard pole, I might break it, it needs rewriting
yes it depends on the model, low resources use destilleted models
We audit each others code with every single merge request and then do code reviews with big changes if that's what you're referring to, we also have lots of niche legislation to take into account when we make the software haha
oh no, i mean like the federal reserve and others
openwebui like the name says is a ui π deepseek is an LLM
Ahh I see, well I'm public sector so there's a bit of that sort of thing but slightly different
oh we're also public sector, but since I work for a bank, we're highly regulated
piss them off enough you're shut down
plus I don't do financial stuff so in that regard, peachy, but there's other legislation we have to be really careful about
piss them off even more they'll let you operate but make it hell
i don't even touch money, but being on the security side, they pay close attention
Yeah, ours is very much a you can't do that, we won't let you
Lots of paperwork and tape to go through even when you do it the correct way
@molten sky I run it on 2 devices on is 32 gb and the other is 64 gb of ram with nvidia 8gb and cuda
literally everything i do will most likely at some point be part of an audit
My title may be dev-ops engineer but I think software engineer, jack of all trades is more apt
because I don't work as much on cloud infra at the moment, I do a blend of software dev and security oriented around the software
not bad. might have to spin one up and poke around
we don't use any cloud whatsoever π€·ββοΈ
well i do personally, and for my consulting, but not my day job
We use a both cloud and on-site
some things we can have on cloud, some things absolutely not
if i wanted something on the cloud, i better have a damn good reason. and it'll be the first. (obviously not including vendored solutions/saas)
for network thing cloude works really good and seems to have a great integration with cisco
From a networking perspective, when I worked on AWS I fucking hated it
i love the flexibility of aws but it's far from simple
It was software I'd written to run on an EC2 and it was only allowed to be accessible via zerotier and our network
literally the only thing i can't do on aws is cname flattening on the apex, which cloudflare can (but that's likely because it's out of spec)
Our network was internet accessible but with all our traffic routed through proxies, so there were a fixed set of IPs I had to lock it down to and my team had been trying to get those IPs for 2/3 years before I got hold of them and could set them correctly for the project
..why were you trying to get specific ip addresses for 3 years?
or i guess you cold mean just any fixed ip
We actually curated our own list but it wasn't complete, one day when I couldn't access my platform, I saw a new IP and thought fuck this, went onto the outlook directory to look for the guys that managed the infra for that network. Found someone high in the team and dropped them an email
/leased
there were various different IPs and ranges that we could end up under
this monday wasn't a great day for aws π€£
wait, bogon? or just part of a leased /x?
aws and cloudflare....... brings the internet to a grinding halt
and unfortunately we didn't manage it so when accessing the internet we could appear as any of the IP addresses depending on what the proxy routed us through
not sure how they set it up on their end, just that our internet traffic went through the proxy and on the other side you could end up with traffic under any one of a range of IPs
so trying to restrict EC2 access to that was a nightmare, we asked several times and got told by various people, no.
ngl, ipam in general is such a PITA
I just happened to find someone senior, said, "anyone know this dude" and wrote an email. They put me onto their line manager who said, I won't email the list but I'll give you a ring and tell you them 
that's what you get when you lay off people and trust in automatization without a human on the look just in case π€£
I actually do this here and there, sometimes there's a good reason
So they wouldn't email it internally using the encrypted outlook emails but over the phone. Well all I'll say is, I got the list over the phone and emailed it to my line manager π€£
Internally at least, there's no reason not to for us. It's e2e encrypted, more-so than mobile calls
not always a DLP concern
sometimes there's other internal considerations as well
hell, could be as simple as attribution without being 100% sure
I mean, we'd been badgering the senior leadership about getting these IPs and they said we should have them, we were allowed to have them and emailing it was no issue, it was just finding someone who knew it and would actually tell us
But yeah, nightmare when trying to restrict EC2s to an on-site network structured like that
Oh yeah no in this case it's weird, but I get the playing it safe part if the guy didn't know for sure
boo this man
It wasn't a random guy either technically, they were the manager of one of the heads of infrastructure so it made no sense π€£
Dm me your token
It was such a mess about but got there in the end π€£
can i dm you my token too
just for fun
can I dm you just to say hi :p
And they call ME Internet Explorer
You missed the AI revolution it seems.
ew
They've caved to the dark side π
join the ai wagon π€£
the only benefit i gain from "AI" is more CVEs
(and not finding them, creating them so i can find them)
that looks like orko from he-man π€£
lol
hi
gonna make the thm ai give me brainrot π
hi :D
like gen z π between ai and tiktok not many brain cells are left π€£
I downloaded this gif 4 minutes ago, and I just got the notification popup for "download finished"
I guess the spell did work wonders :/
I didn't realise I fell under gen-z, am heartbroken
Thankful that it's Gen Z and not Alpha though π it's scary to think that 10 years ago I'd have been roughly their age
gen X it's the best π
I don't havbe a favourite generation, although I am under the impression that after 2004/2005 ( I am not born in either year ) the generations just sort of nose-dived haha
it's not strictly true, I feel as well that it's somewhat perspective based, like that stuff about "the music young people listen to now" as if past generations weren't listening to new music genres too
80s music the best π€£
i just use the turn of the millenia as my shitshow divider
anywhere from 80s to 2010 for me
outside that I don't tend to enjoy it as much bar some exceptions
until the 90s can go, futher than that it's a shitshow π
I feel like it plateau'd at 2000 and then fell off massively from 2004/2005
It's kinda mad actually, I live with someone born before the turn of the generation and I don't live with family π€£
i think the common answer will be "my age -5" for when people started to suck
I think it depends on genre, 2010 pop was iconic, some of the older pop was iconic too, alt music throughout 80s to 2010 are good, older rock goes hard as fuck though
I don't think I even care about the generation it's a combination of not liking children, growing up around people younger than me because of my younger brothers (not that I hate them because they're younger, they're the exception) and then also a bit of not particularly liking people because most of them aren't adults even when they legally are π€£
black sabbath era stuff and the early works of the genre it defined
Like I used to wait an hour after my school so I could get the bus with my brothers so I could make sure they got home safe, that meant being stuck on a bus with 60 people who were between two to four years younger than me for 2 hours a day, which was evil
depeche mode, sisters of mercy, the sisterhood, the mission, all good
rip bat man
which now that I've said depeche mode, it's in my head, https://open.spotify.com/track/1R1vbkHj40yexphG1i7x27?si=b48f8d81f9be44a3 this is a right tune
(distinct from batman)
ozzy
Ohhh, he was nicknamed bat man?
by me yes
I just googled it and I see π
That's definitely a lie π€£
depeche mode had its origins in 1977 but first record in 1980 π
early black sabbath concerts are hilarious though
I can't speculate here, I'm guessing there were other factors, but it definitely wasn't that he thought it was a toy π€£
since the genre wasnβt really defined yet they had rainbows and shit
Yeah I've actually got a couple of their earliest records I believe
a picture taken a while ago
one from 84 and one 87, not their earliest but originals
They were my mum's I believe, you can tell they're old when the right record says Β£3.29, no chance in todays economy π€£
ladies and gentlemen, black sabbath
That's class π
official one in the 80s, I believe that Speak & Spell was in the 1981 I was really young π
I just realised, I have a third depeche mode record, the singles 81 -> 85 one
The first song I'd heard of theirs was blasphemous rumours, and then after that master and servent I believe
A few from the collection
Those police ones are from 1978 and 1981, I believe they may be my oldest
I remember getting a speak and spell
Hello hackers
Hello hackers I was just casually hacking a few minutes ago
hacking into top secret classified data storage mechanisms and cracking the codes and what not, pretty easy stuff ig just a typical Friday night for a Kali linux cracker ig
@dark wolf check DMs
I don't know you
morning
Would anyone be interested in purchasing a gui suite of hacking tools (nuclei, sqlmap, nmap) that is beginner friendly
I am considering distributing this for the small price of 40 xmr dms are open
you mean all the opensourced/freeware gui interfaces for free software 
No itβs an elite hacker package
At a 60% discount from msrp of 100 xmr
tell me youβve never did a saas without telling me
I mean, there are tons of free software on github
nmap has a free downloadable gui though
and nuclei also has nucleiUI, sqlmap also hs a gui
@chrome abyss Please don't send unsolicited dms is annoying and against the rules of the server
ngl, I did not know that π€£
Yeah, it's a github project π
Huh
Yeah, it's nowt big but does the job
If you're hacking on windows I have questions
Huh
I mean if you really don't want to use linux for it, use WSL but still
just get kali linux or smth
there's also https://www.nucleiui.com/ and https://nucleicraft.com/ (although the latter is paid)
No itβs the elite hacker package for windows and macos
elite hacker and windows don't belong in the same sentence
real
Supreme hacker package comes with a Kali linux image as well for 40 more xmr
kali linux images are free
you mean the free-to-download kali image?
π€£

guys today i am 18
congrats!!!!!!
happy birthday!
ty man the thing is we dont even celebrate that much in my family
