[rapid merlin]

Doesnt work on yourself lol

[sinful moon]

can't give rep to yourself lol

[marsh lark]

but, good hacker thinking

[sinful moon]

lol

[rapid merlin]

LOL

[frail ermine]

how are u beautiful people 😄 ?

[solid ridge]

All good

[frail ermine]

cool

[rapid merlin]

yes

[sinful moon]

alright beyond work stress, how about yourself?

[frail ermine]

im fine, was thinkin' bout getting into cyber sec back in 2022, never got time to focus, now i bought 7 books and made a 12-month roadmap to get from beginner to expert in cyber security, and THM is also on my schedule those 12months

[sturdy sequoia]

only 1 year to become an expert?

[rapid merlin]

I'd say 12 months can get you pretty far, yeah, but not to advanced level

[sinful moon]

Well that's great, yeah just do stick to it, THM is a good way to do so, especially with the fun gamification aspects it has for achievements and etc

yeah infosec is a never ending learning path

[frail ermine]

yes i like the dopamine it gives me when i complete rooms and receive 10points

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[frail ermine]

😆

the reason i said expert is, from my pov

[sinful moon]

I'll just say you don't know what you don't know without industry experience, but that will come later. Very important to keep learning when you land in a position

[frail ermine]

i come from a web-development background so cyber security goes hand-in-hand with websites

[sturdy sequoia]

do you want to focus on web security?

[frail ermine]

mostly yes, as that is my area

[sinful moon]

I considered my self a subject matter expert on multiple topics with 20+ years experience until I actually had to do this professionally and wow, tons and tons I was missing

[rapid merlin]

For me, web security is realllyyyy boring

[sinful moon]

It may be but it's vastly important

[rapid merlin]

Of course

[sinful moon]

I get you though, network exploitation and similar is much more interesting

[frail ermine]

yes i believe that, u only gain experience @work

[rapid merlin]

Yeah i am more into binexp

[frail ermine]

nice

my first own website was in 2007 so i saw how things changed, like back then we used <table> xD no need for responsive designs

[sinful moon]

youngin c:

[torpid vessel]

I like binary exploitation, I wish there were more resources and challenges for reverse-engineering and binary exploitation

[rapid merlin]

yes!!

[frail ermine]

need2charge my phone, its 1%
nice2meet ciaoo

[torpid vessel]

take care

[rapid merlin]

htb has many

[sinful moon]

There are on other sites and resources, do not just limit yourself to THM

[rapid merlin]

especially some active hard machines have some concepts of binexp

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @torpid vessel (current: #2126 - 2)

[torpid vessel]

I dislike htb due to how slow and buggy it is where I live

[marsh lark]

speaking of HTB, I did some labs yesterday for the fun of it

[rapid merlin]

tbh, I haven't had any problems with it

[rapid merlin]

Got rocked?:))

[marsh lark]

and now, I am able to solve some easy active labs

only a few months ago, I couldn't even get user flag

[sinful moon]

speaking of labs, do set up home labs if that is viable for you all

even if that just means an old PC with enough RAM that's runing Proxmox, or just on your own machine

[sturdy sequoia]

Home labs help so much

[torpid vessel]

I always had, maybe challenges are the only stable thing there for me but the difficulty is harder than what it appears to be

[sinful moon]

Just suffieciently isolate them ideally, VLANs and more

[marsh lark]

I always thought that HTB VIP+ AND Gold Annual for academy is CRAAAAZY amounts

[rapid merlin]

Well, sorry to hear that :(

[marsh lark]

but I realized that those prices

[sinful moon]

lol you all don't want to see my homelab hardware

[marsh lark]

are nothing compared to my coding lessons

[sturdy sequoia]

Time for a pc upgrade, add the old one to the lab

[rapid merlin]

Who said we don't?

[sinful moon]

I didn't even know those tiers existed lol. I don't think they did when I started

[marsh lark]

VIP+ is labs
Gold Annual is for academy

[narrow yew]

https://tenor.com/view/sadcat-gif-6770984209275368356

[sinful moon]

lol fair enough, here's my specs, only lie is 100GB storage, that's just local OS pool. It's actually 64TB:

[torpid vessel]

np

[sinful moon]

most are idle right now so doesn't look like we even need this, but strust me, under load we do

[rapid merlin]

Holy ram

[sinful moon]

yep, all DDR4 ECC

[rapid merlin]

U have more ram than i have storage

[sinful moon]

but fair 87GB of RAM in use is impressive

uh...

[narrow yew]

Pricey box

[rapid merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/donovan-rich-gif-25582183

[sinful moon]

nah it's a 2016 server we got referb, ~$900 USD. Dell PowerEdge T430

[narrow yew]

with 72 cores?

[sinful moon]

logical not physical

just dual xeons

[torpid vessel]

I think thats the xenon

[narrow yew]

It is

[torpid vessel]

ah yes

[narrow yew]

18 cores 36 threads

[sinful moon]

iirc yep, Proxmox counts a thread as a logical core

[narrow yew]

Not that expensive CPU

Looking to get something similar

[sinful moon]

I'd recommend more a cluster of Proxmox hosts on SFF computers rather than my monolithic setup

But yeah depends on your needs

[torpid vessel]

you can get a cheap laptop and call it a server

[sinful moon]

That was literally my Proxmox server prior to this c:

But yeah this did actually run VMware ESXi/vSphere until Broadcomm screwed over homelab users as well as business

so I had to migrate and move back to Proxmox lol basically, just on this much more powerful server

[torpid vessel]

I might turn my current laptop into a homelab when I get a new pc someday xd

[sinful moon]

not a bad idea

RAM is by far the most important spec

do try to have at least 32GB, that will allow a sane Windows Domain Controller + two domain joined clients easily

[narrow yew]

32gb is nothing on a server

[torpid vessel]

I hate using windows for anything

[narrow yew]

I have 64 on my desktop

[sinful moon]

mhmm again I have 256GB on the server, but this individual wants to repurpose a laptop so I was advising for such

[narrow yew]

My homelab will be a dual Xeon with 50+tb

[sinful moon]

okie, good luck, I do already have that, so let me know if you have questions

[narrow yew]

Multiply SSFs will be too expensive

[sinful moon]

we even have niche use cases such as blu-ray ripping fully supported, just gotta do SCSI passthrough of the devices to the guests

uh if you say so, depends on one's needs

[narrow yew]

It will be a Nas, VMbox running Proxmox as everyone else.

I have a lot of files and DBs

[sinful moon]

usually it's easier and more ideal to do a cluster of SSF computers instead of monolithic

VMbox? You're confusing the two major players and confusing me lol

[narrow yew]

I have a NUC that can play the SSF role

[sinful moon]

unless you mean it's a virtual host with qemu/kvm (libvirt)

[narrow yew]

no no nothing like that

VM box as in runing VMs.

[sinful moon]

Sorry I read that wrong, don't run virtualizaiton on your NAS imho. You should have a dedicated virtual host for that

NAS is only fit to run containers at most imho

[narrow yew]

It will be enough power for that

[sinful moon]

then calling it your NAS may be deceptive

[narrow yew]

That is fine

It will be a homelab with storage? 😄

[sinful moon]

indeed I mean my server actually has more storage than our NAS, we just critically still need that NAS

video library alone is 28TB, servers hosted on our homelab reach out to it and no problems there

[polar spoke]

We comparin hardware specs?

[sinful moon]

please share!

I bet you beat my PowerEdge T430 hands down

[polar spoke]

hahaha

uh

My current large storage server is 960TB raw

[sinful moon]

Hah yeah far exceeds even the 64TB RAID in that server

48TB being our NAS specifically

[polar spoke]

it’s got more ram than a lot of people have storage lol

and that’s just the large one, I have several others that I’ve been moving off of

[sinful moon]

Totally fair heh, I expected as such. But are these personal or work related?

But I imagine that line may potentially blur for you, idk?

[polar spoke]

personal

[sinful moon]

nice nice

[polar spoke]

work systems are low storage, high compute

[sinful moon]

good stuff, makes sense

[polar spoke]

but probably because I don’t need to store much up there, given I can keep it local without worry

So i guess it does blur it at least a bit

[sinful moon]

Totally fair

oh lol to return to something I asked you forever ago. Have you listened to any of the Chicken Man radio serials from the 60s or whenever that was?

Very silly and funny, only relevant because of your name

Just who doesn't want a superhero named Chicken Man?

[polar spoke]

a tiny bit but not really

[sinful moon]

hah totally fair

[polar spoke]

there’s also a radio talk show host who uses chicken man

Or did, mid 2010s

[sinful moon]

probably a bit less inspired, but that's interesting to hear

[polar spoke]

Yeah

[sinful moon]

meanwhile I can report that my personal situation for hashcat has improved, this lappy I'm speaking on can easily handle it without any weirdness. Still haven't thrown a GPU into my server tho lol

meanwhile my VPS is still like "what's a GPU" so rip there heh

but lol sorry to just bring up the obvious, I'm sure you're sick of such. Just neat to hear about your setup and such c:

[sharp scarab]

hey guys, a quick question. If i buy the exam today, will I be able to take it, next week, let's saY?

I'd love to take advantage of the sale

but can't take the exam today

[marsh lark]

you have 1 year to take it I believe

after buying it

not sure of the exact amount of time u have, but to answer ur question, yes

[narrow yew]

@sharp scarab are you looking at other certs also?

[limber geyser]

Guys do u think PT1 and SAL1 is really worth it?

[pine bison]

PT1 1000% no. SAL1 idk

[narrow yew]

Let's play with the thought that you took them, what was your expectation with doing them?

Look at SIEM trainings have seen Splunk, Seintel, some ither SIEM/XDR. Some trainings in that,

Look at SC-200. You will encounter this either way depending on what color of the road you pick

[rapid merlin]

I really appreciate it

[silver hornet]

ur knowledge'll talk about it at all

cert it's just for Hr passing

[narrow yew]

Well not just, you learn things also

[silver hornet]

i agree w that

i'm just say a part of this tbh

[narrow yew]

When my team is hiring if someone has certs no matter what it says, besides that, we look closer at it.

We read all of them, and the last hires was with no particular certs, mindset and will to learn weighs heavier here.

[silver hornet]

cuz we learn for face w real issue - real contract, not only for practical purpose

[narrow yew]

What do you do in the cyber world

[hot flax]

I want to build a homelab. I have sysmon and splunk enterprise installed in my windows machine. My splunk trial is about to end. whats a good alternative that will also let me migrate my config file

[silver hornet]

i'm a cloud security pentester

[narrow yew]

Tell me more, what do you do and what do you look for.

[hard phoenix]

Yo hi everyone

I'm new to cybersecurity security and pentesting but I've been learning it fo quite sometime

And would love to learn real world hacking

[narrow yew]

hackerone, bugcrowd, Intigriti
Look at those and pick a big one with alot of domains

[sturdy sequoia]

Welcome.

[hard phoenix]

Hi

[sturdy sequoia]

Are you new or have you been learning for a while?

And by "real world hacking " do you mean like for a job?

[sharp scarab]

For now, I want to take the sal1 exam but then I will go with htb, yes

[sharp scarab]

thank you very much!

/hi .can someone hep me to answer question in https://tryhackme.com/room/windowsfundamentals1xbx / task 6 user accounts ,profiles and permessions . please

[brazen holly]

still need help ?

[rustic creek]

yes please

[brazen holly]

do you want the answer or guidance ? also which question specifically ?

[pseudo scroll]

What is THM's Echo?
an assistant?

[rustic creek]

I want guidance please

[sturdy sequoia]

yer in the form of ai

[brazen holly]

give me one second to start the machine to give u more specific instructions

[frail ermine]

never give the answer, answers are all around the internet

guidence will help more

[hard phoenix]

I've been learning

But I've never done bugbounty

I find it hard

Fr

[sturdy sequoia]

ah fair enough

[upbeat carbon]

hello. the website have some connect issues, working very slow. i am the one who noticed?

[frail ermine]

bugbounty is not robots.txt or view source code <!-- credentials xD

[brazen holly]

Ok so for the first question, you can find the local user profile by going to "local users and groups" there is a command that is displayed in task 6 that will take you to that window

for the second question, you can also answer it using the same window, just need to go into the "groups" section of local users and groups, take a look at the different types of groups and see what group the "(hidden) user account" is in

question 3 is kinda self explanatory in my opinio not really sure how to give a hint w/o giving it away.

and question 4 can be answer by going to that hidden user in the same window and double clicking his user profile, there will be a description

[obtuse sparrow]

same here, can't start machines

[brazen holly]

try using a different server

i'm in asia at the moment so i'm connected to the india server they have, seems to be working fine/

[upbeat carbon]

i was thought, maybe i am hacked 😄

[frail ermine]

stop using wifi from neighbours

[upbeat carbon]

hahaha 😄

[frail ermine]

😆

[sharp scarab]

so glad I decided to do a soc simlator today...saw the sale, took advantage of it. Thank you TryHackMe fam!

[sharp scarab]

damn, missed details about "where" and the nature of the sender, which took 30 points from my report, on the soc simulator...

Overall, your coverage of the 5Ws is strong, but ensure to include more specific technical details in future reports to aid in a thorough investigation. bruh

damn, i need to write a novel on these case reports...

I wanted to take the exam when I have 100/100 on all...

what do you guys suggest?

[frail ermine]

consistency is key, do this everyday for 1 - 2 hours, within 2months u'll laugh at where u @ now

[silver hornet]

Dude, I have no obligation to say those things to you. If you want to learn from me, you can dm me properly. Have a good day

https://tenor.com/view/laughing-simon-cowell-britain's-got-talent-hahaha-that's-funny-gif-9159514708265460261

[sharp scarab]

true...i think it's the 3rd time I do the simulation and now I understand waaay better at what I'm looking at and how to connect the dots...in 2 months, yes, as you said...

ok, bought the exam voucher

phew, excited and a bit scared

[silver hornet]

if you r stuck, i can help you a little bit

[marsh lark]

during the exam?

[frail ermine]

what programming languages do u guys know ?

[silver hornet]

nah

just

[marsh lark]

Java, Python, C++

[silver hornet]

learning

[sturdy sequoia]

none

[silver hornet]

before exam

[marsh lark]

ah

[frail ermine]

nice

[chilly veldt]

reading, writing, or understanding?

there's levels to "knowing" a programming language

[frail ermine]

yes never thought of it that way

[chilly veldt]

sure I can read rust, but I could never write a program in it

without having to search up everything

[marsh lark]

bella, how did the whole thing go yesterday (something to do with networking)

[sturdy sequoia]

the possibilities are almost endless

[chilly veldt]

so now I can be mad in peace

[hard phoenix]

Ummm

[frail ermine]

sometimes just doing is more beneficial than thinking

[hard phoenix]

Very confused here

[sturdy sequoia]

with what?

[frail ermine]

go make ur own offline website in html,css and add some javascript to it, and later add php with sql

[hard phoenix]

Like I thought people would like teach me stuff

[sturdy sequoia]

teach you what?

[frail ermine]

we can give u directions but u have to create ur own path

[hard phoenix]

Oh

[hard phoenix]

Hacking

[frail ermine]

what works for us might not work for u, what works for u, might not work for us

[sturdy sequoia]

#start-here

[hard phoenix]

Tryhackme is good to learn I know

But sometimes you have to pay

Which I can't

So I just want h video and stuff

[sturdy sequoia]

theres still plenty of free content

[hard phoenix]

True

Like I tried bugbounty

But didn't find anything

Or like I didn't know how to find stuff

Watched a lot of tutorials.but no luck

[sharp scarab]

not really stuck, just looking for ways to improve

thank you, though @silver hornet

[twin ridge]

keep watching more videos. keep learning. keep practicing. youll get there, it doesnt happen over night

[frail ermine]

how long are u in cyber security ?

what certificates did u try to get

[pine bison]

Rooms that's not getting fixed for their problems should be removed @mossy river

Can't even find the room creators in the server

Waste of time

[hard phoenix]

Certificate were do I get those

[frail ermine]

u can look into compTIA security plus

[hard phoenix]

Do I need to pay

[frail ermine]

mostly for every certificate u need to pay, but u got one chance, so u take it when u know every subject by heart

and learning is always free

i just bought 7 books recently, to keep myself busy in cyber security for the next 12months,, i got my own roadmap to success

[hard phoenix]

Ok

Damn

[sturdy sequoia]

theres also lots of free rooms on thm

and lots of youtube videos

[hard phoenix]

Haven't gone through all of them though

OOOOOOOF

[topaz sedge]

How are you

[mossy river]

I'm alright

[topaz sedge]

You had illness?

[mossy river]

How are you Kratos?

[topaz sedge]

Alive, was ill too

[mossy river]

that time of the year

I had throat infection which seems to have settled down

Yea

I thought of going on a ride today on my motorcycle

But I have a flat tire

[marsh lark]

I think I'm sick too

a bit anyway

[topaz sedge]

And I'm not in the mood of changing my tire

[topaz sedge]

Get well soon

[boreal scarab]

My cold is slowly going away. Thanks Sudafed and zinc, still a tiny bit congested but not as bad as yesterday

[mossy river]

I drink lucozade and honey

that is my remedy

another energy drink

[boreal scarab]

I ordered a juice with turmeric, ginger, peppercorn and other stuff yesterday, helped me know I can still taste

Cause my god was that drink lemony

[cosmic pendant]

Cert stapling

That the other things lol. Gm

[mossy river]

Lucozade isn't really considered an energy drink here

[winged nimbus]

is it more of a sports drink

[marsh lark]

ah

[winged nimbus]

doesn't have caffine from my quick search

its an energy drink but a different type of energy drink

How well would defending azure prepare me for SC-200

[slow cloud]

i have not done sc-200 yet but i dont think it will be enough

[mossy river]

Microsoft Learn documents have helped me a lot with Microsoft training

[slow cloud]

since sc-200 covers purview etc, which the defending azure path does not cover

Minus the self-glazing from Microsoft they're great for prep

Anyone got a good translator for Iranian (I believe the lang is Persian)
I have hundreds of hours of video content, pdfs, code and commemts etc
But I can't make any sense of it

[boreal scarab]

Well. Got my costume for today

Cool

[sharp igloo]

hey guys

hope youre all having a great day

[narrow yew]

I yoe YOU have greater day @sharp igloo

[sharp igloo]

does it need to be free? or can it cost a little money? what exactly do you want to do with the videos? just transcripts and translate them?

[sharp igloo]

thnx mate

[long lotus]

good morning guys

[sharp igloo]

i would need to do more research, but in general gpt5 is not bad with translations, so you could pipe your text through it via the api or get a sub and use codex-cli (potentially with the non-interactive arg)

[bleak quartz]

Just translate

So I can understand

If the AI could also translate presentations that they show that could be great too

But I'll try w this

[sharp igloo]

you are right about google translate being bad

current llms like gpt5 are much better at it

[sharp igloo]

that should be doable

[sharp igloo]

text extract should definitely work, worst case you need to ocr

dont know exactly about the performance of ocr on iranian text, but i would assume it should also work pretty well

if you need help with something specific, you can ping me

[winged nimbus]

pay somone who lives in iran to do it

jk

unless you can afford

[bleak quartz]

AI is cheaper

There is a reason, unsure if it's public however I wouldn't rule out them returning in the future

[gritty edge]

why loading is so high in this room

https://tryhackme.com/room/bruteit

[idle mica]

Gotcha, okay. If there's a way I can strongly suggest it, I'll gladly do so. It has brought people to the platform and captured their interest in cybersecurity. However, if it's a business reason, I definitely get it. We had to turn off an entire country from purchasing from our Dank Memer store due to money laundering. 😂

[gritty edge]

How can I report that room loading is so high, cant do nothing

[marsh lark]

are you using burp suite?

[gritty edge]

yes bro, I also log in with some browser, it still heavy

If you all dont mind, plz kindly give me this rsa key

clearly i need practice with SSH in Linux. Wont let me in and ive used the tryhackme pw multiple times. (Linux Fundamentals Pt 3).

[narrow yew]

What do you type to log in?
Are you on OpenVPN?

Maybe you forgot the vpn

[thick vortex]

its 100% my fault, i forgot to do tryhackme after SSH checked the video

[loud marlin]

try: curl 10.10.10.10/whoami ? and do you get answer on that. ofc while on thm vpn

[frail sinew]

I love this site. I another tab for five minutes to read up on something and my VM disconnects. I'm gonna go make sure my auto-renew is turned off.

[thick vortex]

I've been annoying Echo this morning 😂. Reminds me of Vivi from Final Fantasy 9.

ill try again in a couple of hours and see if i have any luck getting in.

[loud marlin]

do the command for vpn as i mention

if that is issue for you

[thick vortex]

Oh i havent setup OpenVPN yet. Should probably do that.

[loud marlin]

oh. ok then

well that command will, if you get reply of you username it is 100% that you are connected to thm vpn

[thick vortex]

alright managed to get on linux3, dont know why it didnt like me before lol. Thank you for trying to help.

[loud marlin]

just if you use in-browser thm linux/kali or so then you do not need vpn on on own machine

in browser thm are direct connected to thm servers so vpn is not needed

[grizzled sky]

https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/five-nights-at-freddys-into-the-pit-99c563

free game on epic atm, and the game is actually really fun if you want something spooky for halloween;

[torpid vessel]

is that an actual fnaf game?

[grizzled sky]

define actual. its official just not one of the og games from the original creator;

imo its the best of the recent fnaf games though;

simple, grounded, and focused on urban fantasy horror without trying to focus on the insane lore stuff the way the 3d games have been;

[untold bronze]

does anyone know if there is a way to crack a "password to open" ppt file? ive searched a lot and it seems like a password protected ppt file is impossible to crack, im a student and im just curious

idrk if this is appropriate channel sry abt it if it isnt

[grizzled sky]

i mean the real question is who still uses powerpoint;

but i can look around;

[untold bronze]

"password to modify" you can access xml file w 7zip and just delete the text that encrypts

[grizzled sky]

https://passper.imyfone.com/powerpoint/remove-password-from-powerpoint/

this is the best result i could find on that topic;

[untold bronze]

ive tried 3rd party apps and yeah it uses bruteforce dictionary but it's not 100% guaranteed

[sharp igloo]

hi peeps, anything new?

[honest shore]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/861019621985091594/863662675829719130/aaaaaaaaazzzz.gif

[torpid vessel]

oh? didn't know other people work on offical fnaf games other than scott

[grizzled sky]

scott has passed the torch so now its other studios making the games, both fan games and in this case officially licensed games;

so far though there was security breach which was and imo still is a buggy mess and requires a higher end gaming gpu for even acceptible performance, and then the ar and vr games which were mostly minigame packs as a vehicle for their arg lore;

[torpid vessel]

yeah I agree

[grizzled sky]

and then this one into the pit, which unlike the other games is small, self contained, and pixel art to give it that retro feel;

the newer 3d one is similar to security breach in terms of gameplay but unlike security breach it isn't a mess to try to run on most computers;

[torpid vessel]

Didn't like the secrets of the mimic tbh

[sand trench]

happy end of spooktoobers everyone

[grizzled sky]

yeah me neither i was ok with just watching a letsplay;

i think into the pit is probably the best game to play for normies who don't want to spend hours getting a doctorate in fnaf lore just to understand the game;

from what i remember none of it particularly requires any investment into the series and works well as a standalone game;

[grizzled sky]

got a kigirumi charmander onsie i am going out in today;

[torpid vessel]

unfortunately I can't play it on linux

epic games runs horribly on linux lol

[grizzled sky]

really? i have heroic game launcher and it works great for me;

and heroic games launcher lets you play any game on epic easy with proton;

or any other non steam game;

[torpid vessel]

didn't know about that

[grizzled sky]

i've even used proton via heroic games launcher to run software like tradeskillmaster for wow and it works fine;

so you can use it to run most windows software too;

[torpid vessel]

I have a lot of games on epic, it'd be helpful it that fixes the issue

[grizzled sky]

yeah forsure highly recomend, i have a huge pile of games on ea, epic, rockstar, and all of them work with heroic game launcher;

[torpid vessel]

nicee

[grizzled sky]

in theory you can integrate the games into your steam library too but that feature was hit and miss for me;

[torpid vessel]

oh right

[grizzled sky]

oh and you can play vr games on linux too;

[torpid vessel]

never had one but good to know

[grizzled sky]

https://github.com/alvr-org/alvr

mostly just play escape room simulator;

i love escape rooms and that game is more fun with vr imo;

https://heroicgameslauncher.com/

[torpid vessel]

I wonder if people get sick after playing in vr

[grizzled sky]

a friend of mine developing software in vr said around 35%;

so its fairly common;

[torpid vessel]

yeah I had one of these vr clones for mobile

and it was sickening xd

[grizzled sky]

its sort of like how a good percentage of men are colour blind to some degree;

but most people don't think about it if they haven't experienced it;

[viscid heath]

hi everyone

[grizzled sky]

oh yeah those i don't even consider the same tech;

[torpid vessel]

color blindness can cause headache?

[grizzled sky]

those give me headaches;

[torpid vessel]

Hi

[grizzled sky]

and i don't have an issue with good vr on my quest;

though i have to pause after 2 hours, but that's true for games in general;

or most tasks for that matter;

[torpid vessel]

I see

[grizzled sky]

i am not good at zoning in on a thing for longer than 2 hours before i need to take a break;

[torpid vessel]

Yeah I guess I'm on the same boat

[grizzled sky]

it can but that's not why i bring it up, i think the vr headset issues are similar to colour blindness in terms of it just being a common quirk in accessibility;

[torpid vessel]

fair

[grizzled sky]

but yeah that's part of my specialization, accessibility design and cybersecurity related to accessibility issues;

stuff like how aphantasia can impact how people interact with llms for instance;

lots of interesting and diverse ways people respond to new tech that you don't learn about unless you test for it;

[sand trench]

neato... expensive but neato

[grizzled sky]

yeah i was super lucky, i got my quest 3 for 500 can;

including all the stuff i need to run it on my gaming pc;

so i mostly just use it to play escape room sim and beatsaber;

beatsaber is a fantastic cardio to start the day;

[sand trench]

keep talking and nobody explodes sounds like it would be fun in VR too

for the side that is not reading the manual papers

[grizzled sky]

yeah when i get a friend over i want to try that out;

https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/bendy-and-the-ink-machine-60cf5a

oh also in addition to fnaf, bendy is free on epic too atm;

that game was ok, not as good as into the pit imo;

[torpid vessel]

that's new stuff to me

[grizzled sky]

a lot more of it is reliant on knowing the log behind the game and i am not really into games that require outside lore to enjoy like fnaf;

its cool to see lets plays of from people who are willing to spend years reading bad kids books to understand the lore though;

game theory and the like;

[torpid vessel]

yeah, I love game theory

[grizzled sky]

ngl its actually one of the reasons i have mixed feelings about deltarune;

i love that game from watching lets plays;

i don't like the experience of actually playing it;

not because of it being an rpg, but because you have to keep getting yourself out of the game to follow walkthroughs to do very very specific things to get all the stuff in the game that is hidden on secret branch narratives;

for me when i play a game i love being able to just play it and not have to worry about outside resources;

mmos have that problem too, so much of wow is basically only playable if you are spending a lot of time reading guides because so many of the quests are hidden behind obscure back alleys and such that no normal player would come accross by accident;

like its one thing where a game has hidden easter eggs that are just for a small bonus bit of story or something, my pet peave is when stuff like undertale requires you to basically know the exact way you need to play the game in order to see most of the content in it;

to the point where some of the enemies literally require a walkthrough to know the exact pattern of attacks and actions to take in order to defeat them while being seen as a "pacifist;";

[torpid vessel]

I feel like that's a common problem with indie games

the second game of their first always gonna have its flaws

even tho they're more polished

[oak pasture]

would be impressive

[sick lance]

0day hit Muiri with a Discord 0day.

[silver sky]

Of course he did

I'm a newbie

[sick lance]

Wild.

[silver sky]

Hi Newbie I'm dad

Welcome

[frail ermine]

in my town many companies got hacked also

[sand trench]

if you dad who mom???

[silver sky]

Mrs WIDE

[sand trench]

hmmmm

calling her that might not be appricated

[languid pawn]

if you are a noob first learn the following "Linux + Linux CLI + Kali linux + Reverse engeneering 101 + Nvim + keyboard finger responsibilities + math + introduction to philosophy + phrack issues + Critical thinking + Obsidian (Or just a good knowledge management or production system)

[silver sky]

She's sat next to me laughing 😂

[languid pawn]

oh and python everything else should develop naturally>... alo you need a lot of trash like a lab on home that has tons of trash like at least 2 computers and 2 phones or something so you can practice

[frail ermine]

my brain gets already tired by reading all those terms

[pseudo sedge]

Ohh thanks for explaining 😊

[silver sky]

Please ignore every word this person just said

[sick lance]

Is there a bee?

Cause I just seen some buzz words.

[frail ermine]

fizzbuzz

[sand trench]

A hacker embodies a boundless passion and insatiable thirst for understanding the complexities of a system, computers and networks in particular. They revel in the pursuit of knowledge and mastery, constantly seeking new solutions and opportunities for growth. Their drive and innovative spirit inspire and are inspired by the hacker community, where ideas and knowledge are freely shared and valued regardless of their origin.

[languid pawn]

well hacking is not easy son.. you think hacker came to be just in 4months or 6 that's a lie ... they spent at least 2y to get a solid foundation

[pseudo sedge]

Btw I'm switching from windows to Linux so can you tell the process?

[silver sky]

The fuck does philosophy have to do with hacking 😂

[frail ermine]

true

[sick lance]

Choose a distroy, create a iso boot, boot it and install.

I highy suggest using a VM though at first, to get to grips with it.

[frail ermine]

format hard disk, install ubuntu lts via bootable usb

[sand trench]

and any distro is the wrong choice
the only correct choice is:
linux from scratch

/jk

[sick lance]

Windows > Linus is much like going from iOs > Android.

It's not for everyone.

[languid pawn]

just get a USB... download rofus download linux mint... make live usb then boot into usb from bios (hold f12 or whatever laptop you have) boot into the computer.... then now you have linux live on USB screw aorund open firefox and practice

once you like that shit then install it. practice on that shit then git kali linux when you get comfortable with linux cli...

[sick lance]

In a VM, right?

[languid pawn]

you run kali on a VM inside that linux mint

[sick lance]

Right!?

Right!?

[languid pawn]

y

[pseudo sedge]

Is it complex to use?

[languid pawn]

no

it's so easy that's why I told you linux mint mr.biginner

[sand trench]

not really
but it is very different from windows or android

[sick lance]

Android is Linux

[frail ermine]

first, format hard disk, split hard disk in 3, if u have 1TB, make 3 partitions, each 330GB, install windows 7, ubuntu and kali

[languid pawn]

if you want to learn start archlinux

[pseudo sedge]

Ohh yh ik

[sharp igloo]

Bonjour

[pseudo sedge]

Okk

[languid pawn]

if you like to spend time learning linux stat arch linux but let me tell you ... good luck because you freaking need it

[silver sky]

Have you heard of the expression, one step at a time?

[sand trench]

sure
with hardened SELinux profiles
a propritery blob that sticks its tendrils everywhere
every thing is sandboxed except the blob

[sick lance]

insert meme of person climbing stairs

[pseudo sedge]

Are you guys experienced?

[languid pawn]

it's exactly what I gave him one step at a time... he told me he want to switch tolinux that's the best first step

[frail ermine]

Microsoft just announced that they will be launching a new feature in windows 11 called "recall", this will take a snapshot of your desktop every 5 seconds.

[languid pawn]

no

[silver sky]

Arch Linux is not the first step

[frail ermine]

windows = spyware

[sick lance]

I recall this, not being new.

[silver sky]

Yes

[languid pawn]

I gave him an alternative if he is into spending time learning the hardway which will pay off on the long run

[pseudo sedge]

So?

[sand trench]

https://github.com/rolflobker/recall-for-linux

[sick lance]

Fun fact about recall, if you have saved "adult" videos, it categorises them for you.

[pseudo sedge]

What's this?

[sand trench]

please understand that github page is a joke

[frail ermine]

😆😆

[marsh lark]

I'm gonna let you know something, Wide Boi and Scrubz are experts

[frail ermine]

me also expert

[sick lance]

no i'm not, i'm new

[marsh lark]

and shadow

[sand trench]

shadow is not an expert as they never worked in the field :D

[silver sky]

If you want to start, have you signed up to TryHackMe yet?

[sick lance]

see, unverified.

[marsh lark]

[pseudo sedge]

I also think that

[pseudo sedge]

Yh

[frail ermine]

one day i am going 2 be #1 rank om THM

[sick lance]

Good luck.

[marsh lark]

heh

[frail ermine]

thnx

[sick lance]

There is not enough content to overtake Ryan.

[marsh lark]

good luck with KGB and 0day in the way

[sand trench]

0day/ryan guards his number 1 spot well

[frail ermine]

😆

[silver sky]

Start with the https://tryhackme.com/path/outline/cybersecurity101

[marsh lark]

how about pre security?

[pseudo sedge]

I'm done with this

[silver sky]

Another good suggestion

[sick lance]

Anyway....

smokebomb

[languid pawn]

you know what just freaking learn what an OS is on youtube what's a CLI vs GUI what's a linux kernel ... just go whatever you find on youtube you seem so biginner...

when I was you I just said screw it got arch into usb and spent times reading wiki got my arch running it was trash then made it good... ended up learning cli then ended up learnign a lot.

if you have 7months go arch if you are like don't have that then go linux mint... everything you do is gui but take care of the Terminal it's your friend .

then start doing projects try ssh... try opening kali in a VM try installing kali in live usb with dd and boot kali fresh on your laptop try like idk got knows what there are tons of stuff you can try just follow what you want.

I have you the basics... "Linux + Linux CLI + Python + nvim + tmux + keyboard fingerresponsibilities + basic netwrokign + after you get exprenece reverser engeneering 101 + after you get experience kali linux ... idk what else I told you there are so many starting points you can attack your question. just make sure to take notes and enjoy the process

[marsh lark]

[silver sky]

Holy wall of text

[frail ermine]

try
CTRL + ALT + F2
on linux or try F1/ F3 etc

[languid pawn]

what he made me repeat myself what ?

[pseudo sedge]

Ohh thanks for this

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @languid pawn (current: #3239 - 1)

[silver sky]

No, you are bombarding a new user with complete useless information

[frail ermine]

nahh new users shouldnt be here, they should be educating themselves already,

[languid pawn]

really? well you say it's useless but you have no evidence you are a troll

[marsh lark]

HAH

[languid pawn]

where is the useless information exactly

[marsh lark]

troll

sure

he's one of the community legends

[languid pawn]

he didn't want to review my pdf

[sharp igloo]

Hi mr donut

[marsh lark]

doesn't mean he isn't a pro lol

he's busy mate

[marsh lark]

yo 🙂

[pseudo sedge]

Actually I think I have to learn a programming language first and get strong understanding of internet 🛜.

[silver sky]

Plus I'm not a fucking moron who opens random PDF files

[sharp igloo]

Hi mr badboi

[pseudo sedge]

Am I right?

[marsh lark]

[languid pawn]

no he could have said ey I don't have time I'll check it later but he is like could be a malware. bro it's on google drive you don't even have to download anything

[sharp igloo]

Can they be malicious?

[marsh lark]

yes

[silver sky]

Yes

[rapid merlin]

Drop the mister , just BadBoi is fine

[languid pawn]

brother it has rw-rw---- bro you are using linux hello ?

[trail barn]

A word doc can be malicious.

[sharp igloo]

Really? What can they do? And how?

[languid pawn]

you think I know a vulnrability in evence? or zarathul you are insane

[marsh lark]

when you open the pdf (it can depend on the pdf reader tho sometimes), it might run a command in the background

[languid pawn]

of yoru browser who knows what it is maybe firefow

[frail ermine]

@pseudo sedge yes try to build ur own offline website, start with index.html
add some css, later javascript

when u got it, upgrade to php + SQL

sqlinject urself

and then get into cyber sec

[sharp igloo]

Are you sure? John hammond has a video on that

[pseudo sedge]

Ok

[marsh lark]

yes

[silver sky]

For cyber security, when you're starting out you can get away without programming but a scripting language like python is definitely worth learning

[pseudo sedge]

Yh

[sharp igloo]

His conclusion was that at least on first glance a pdf cannot be malicious without you accepting to run an extra command

[languid pawn]

are you kidding me.... dude if you are really scared just live boot usb into like tails and open discord there

you are too strict

[marsh lark]

hah

anyway

[sharp igloo]

Or do you know more?

[marsh lark]

uhhhhh, no

[rapid merlin]

Whats tails

[frail ermine]

i can hirensbootcd ya'll !!

[sharp igloo]

Ah ok

[silver sky]

https://www.varonis.com/blog/matrixpdf

[rapid merlin]

I'm kinda new

[silver sky]

Holy shit hirensbootcd I've not heard that tool in a long time

[frail ermine]

😆

[pseudo sedge]

[languid pawn]

lol always have it baby in grub

gotta live boot that sucker it's so good

[frail ermine]

that was my number one saver when i forgot my password

[languid pawn]

I was a windows enjouer

[languid pawn]
