Do you have any job?

[frail ermine]

i used keyloggers in 2004

hacked all my classmates and family just for fun

[frail ermine]

was just for fun, idk why

[blissful frost]

Skid

[woven drift]

hbcd is so peak

[rapid merlin]

Stealing passwords, usernames, credit card details

Sounds fun

And unethical

[woven drift]

..hooray 😭

[frail ermine]

@rapid merlin nahh just windows live messenger and some online games

i wasnt even aware what i did, the possibility was just there

a video that is definitely worth watching

[lament tendon]

Do you know the story of the hacker that got shell access to an OpenBSD dev machine, ran a few commands, had nothing work as intended and then leave again?

[loud marlin]

you can check darknet diaries chanell. there is lot's of story's

might get smth

[lament tendon]

I literally know that story from there.

[loud marlin]

oh... hehe

[lament tendon]

It only popped up as a side note in one of the more recent expisodes tho.

Just thought it was funny.

Even tho you need to be a bit suspicious since it's a self disclosed incident, so there is a 50% chance it never happened.

I will forever use it as a joke argument in discussions about how Linux cannot be hacked (it definitely can).

[silver sky]

Bet your jealous I'm warm in my hoodie

[elder stirrup]

I wanna know, what’s your go-to c2 framework and why? (Doing a little experiment)

[lament tendon]

Msfconsole for smaller projects and Armitage (which is also pretty much just msfconsole, but with a few cool extra features) for larger networks.

Mostly because I am most familiar with msfconsole, there are good alternatives.

[willow delta]

guys anyone knows a good email service provider?

[lament tendon]

ProtonMail.

[willow delta]

no no with api

like for temp mails

[elder stirrup]

Im confused

[lament tendon]

ProtonMail with SimpleLogin?

Watcha need an API for?

[elder stirrup]

Just gonna ask

[willow delta]

i can use their api to generate as many accounts i need?

[elder stirrup]

Aaaahhhh

[lament tendon]

No clue, maybe.

[elder stirrup]

I ain’t answering that

[willow delta]

im working on a account gen

and i need emails to verify them

[distant robin]

beep boop beep boop

[lament tendon]

Not quite buying it.

SimpleLogin should be good enough for testing.

[sturdy sequoia]

sounds illegal

[elder stirrup]

Indeed

[silver sky]

Sounds a breach of TOS

[elder stirrup]

The legend is here 🎉🎉🎉

[silver sky]

Sorry do I know you?

[willow delta]

nahh that shit aint helping me lol

[elder stirrup]

Nope, just saw “community legend” in your roles list

[willow delta]

guysss anyone knows a good email service providerrrrrr????

[elder stirrup]

Dude, there is no legal way to auto-create mail accounts

[lament tendon]

What do you need that mails for?

[willow delta]

thats not what i asked before 💀

[willow delta]

to verify the accounts bro

[elder stirrup]

?

[willow delta]

💀

[lament tendon]

No normal mail provider will provide you with mass creation capabilities of addresses for a good reason.

[silver sky]

Yeah man, you asking sketchy shit, we don't do that here.

[willow delta]

yes there is a website and i forogt its name

[silver sky]

Continue and I'm sure the gods will intervene

[willow delta]

guys u never seen a temp mail?

on google

[elder stirrup]

Chill out, I’m trying my best to understand the situation but I am not a native English speaker

[willow delta]

these free services?

it gives u a email with their domain?

[lament tendon]

So exactly what SimpleLogin does.

[willow delta]

https://temp-mail.org/en/

[elder stirrup]

Aaaaaahhhhhh

[willow delta]

yh and do they do with api too?

[elder stirrup]

Why do you need an api?

[willow delta]

brooo.

i said it before

im making a account generator

and i need emails to verify them

[elder stirrup]

Gotcha

[sturdy sequoia]

Generating accounts for what?

[willow delta]

but these temp mails that are for free on website doews not allow apis and they get flagged

[willow delta]

instagram

its already done

[elder stirrup]

Yeah nah

[willow delta]

i just need a good email provider

[elder stirrup]

That’s quite clearly against their TOS

[lament tendon]

I am decently sure that is against some TOS, no assistance.

[willow delta]

yall crazy 💀

[elder stirrup]

Im sure of it, no assistance

[silver sky]

Guys let's ignore them

[elder stirrup]

[uncut pawn]

I'm looking for a cyber security professional that might see my issue as a bit of a fun puzzle, even though my gut is telling me that--if you know what you're doing--my situation might not be that difficult for you. But it's an issue I've been dealing with for a few years.

[elder stirrup]

Now I’m curious

[sturdy sequoia]

What's the issue?

[lament tendon]

What is the issue, tho?

[distant robin]

I am curious too

[elder stirrup]

Lol, we are all curious

[distant robin]

Like a bunch of nosey goats

[elder stirrup]

That’s ethical hackers :)

[uncut pawn]

I can message those curious--individually, and I'll try to give you the short version. But I have like, an entire write-up ready if/when you want to be bombarded with the entire thing. But for now, I'll keep it as simple as I possibly can. Sec.

[elder stirrup]

or u just buy some dumbbellss and e-z bar etc

[sand trench]

shadows point is that you don't need to pay for anything to get in decent shape

sure you can but it is optional

[frail ermine]

im going to format my harddisk now with windows 10 and ubuntu on it, RIP to the files and stuff i forgot to put on my usb 😆 i dont care

sometimes it's better to start fresh again

[sand trench]

well good luck and here is hoping windows no nukey linux

[frail ermine]

after that i split my hard disk in 3 partitions, each 330gb, and install windows 10 again, ubuntu and kali 😛

[sand trench]

debating if it is sane of you to install kali on baremetal instead of a vm

[frail ermine]

vm makes my pc slow

[sand trench]

hmmm

[frail ermine]

and i can always run vm kali on kali 😆

[topaz sedge]

It's not gym
It's gymnasium

@silver sky ssup

[frail ermine]

sometimes i like to start fresh again, like closing my bank account and open new one, so all the transactions gets deleted 🙃

we leave no trace

[sand trench]

hope for your sake that is a joke as damn

[silver sky]

Sup

[distant robin]

No such thing, unless you destroy the drive and render it inoperable. I've recovered data even though it's overwritten or "erased".

[distant robin]

It doesn't sound like a joke.

[frail ermine]

@distant robin yes with hirensbootcd it is possible to retrieve old deleted data

[charred plover]

Are there SOC simulator practice rooms that I could use to gauge where I am at before starting my SAL1?

[distant robin]

I can't remember the tool I used but yeah, it was over 10 years ago. I thought why not for the fun of it and was surprised to recover some files I thought was lost forever

[frail ermine]

i had the same with some usbs

[distant robin]

I've never used Hiren's but I've used UBCD when I worked as a technician like 21 years ago

[frail ermine]

nice, i guess there are many tools, but some i forgot the name

[sand trench]

https://tryhackme.com/soc-sim/?ref=nav

also known as yes

[charred plover]

Hirens itself has tools, some of them are expired trials, but what kind of post data are you trying to recover

[distant robin]

One of the early tools I used was Norton Ghost - really good tool for backing up clients' hard drives before working on them.

[sand trench]

shadow has messed with recuva on windows

not sure what options there are out there for linux though

[frail ermine]

@charred plover im not trying to recover anything, i am formatting my hard disk right now

[distant robin]

I was 26 at that time. I'm 46 now

[cosmic pasture]

whatsup all. Anybody have a solid resource for learning API fundamentals? most resources I find are either to general, or jump straight into the security aspect, without teaching how they actually work under the hood. I feel like it's almost the equivalent of trying to attack a network service like SNMP without even knowing TCP/IP fundamentals. I want to build a strong foundation before I start hacking APIs. If you’ve got any beginner friendly resources that explain how APIs function (methods, headers, auth, etc), I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!

[frail ermine]

@distant robin time flies

[distant robin]

Lol we're just discussing how easy it is to recover files

[charred plover]

In that case, in the latest windows 11 PE release, there's 6 or so tools that will help you reformat your disk. In the apps folder in the start menu, look at the hard disk folder

[distant robin]

yeah it does. I have a lot of memories - I was a workshop apprentice after finishing my studies for A+ and N+. First interview and they hired me. Really good people. After my training, I was actually one of their best technicians. One of our call-out techs came back with a computer that had malware refusing to budge. Took me 1 hour to remove it. It took him 2 hours and nothing worked.

[frail ermine]

@charred plover thnx didnt know there was 11 pe

[distant robin]

I even managed to recover a portable hard drive and move the data over to a new hard drive but the process took 8 hours and a running fan on it all night because it ran hot. We think the client dropped it and it wouldn't work properly. Surprised myself as it was my first data recovery and I managed to save everything from it to the new one.

Oh and on the team, I was the only lady there.

[frail ermine]

😆

[charred plover]

Yeah, they did an update about Jan or Feb iirc

[frail ermine]

it's an old pc anyway, bought it in 2017

[distant robin]

Lol I had a sandybridge that lasted me 13 years

[frail ermine]

those times were the good times

[distant robin]

Yeah after that, I earned their respect. They always came to me when they had a problem or needed a hand when time was short. I was happy to keep busy.

[oblique loom]

Which one?

[frail ermine]

@distant robin in this world we need eachother

teamwork can get us real far

[distant robin]

Indeed

[sand trench]

just hit them in the liver and they will fall over no matter what

[lament tendon]

Don't, hitting people in the stomach is pretty dangerous.

[sand trench]

yeah don't start hitting people

boxing is not a sport it is a fight

and has caused a lot of brain damage

[uncut pawn]

I was hit in the stomach once, Middle School. I still remember the kid's name. Still holding a grudge.

I'm 29 now, I found the dude. He owns a dog walking service in my state (everyone loves being on social media now). I could call him up, ask him to come get my dog (I don't have one), and when he knocks on the door and I open it be like "Remember me, bitch?" But I won't do that. But I could. I won't, tho.

Tldr; it's wild how many people vomit up their info online. If this was a lifetime movie, I know where like 6ish people that I had bad blood with, are, 10-20 years later. But I'm not crazy so yeh

[lament tendon]

That would get you sued for assault.

[sand trench]

if you do that and it ends in a fight you just set yourself up for criminal charges

[uncut pawn]

Unfortunately

[sand trench]

statue of limitations apply so you can't sue them for damages anymore either

[uncut pawn]

But it was less "I want to do this" and more "Damn, it's that easy for a psycho to find people from their childhood huh?". But yeah, don't punch people in the stomach just for the hell of it.

That shit is...invasive. Yes, it hurts. But it's like. Invasive hurt. Also been kicked in the crotch. Same thing.

any linux users using uutils as a coreutils replacement?? wanna know how stable it feels and if you found any edge cases or errors that would make it not daily driveable... as considering swapping over for memory safety reasons

[rapid merlin]

Too hard for me or I’d try to help😬

[lament tendon]

What's the concern with the normal coreutils?

Just memory safety?

[sand trench]

well think mostly memory safety issues... but whatever the risk between c/c++ vs rust is

[lament tendon]

Genuinly interested, never heard of uutils.

I see.

[sand trench]

https://github.com/uutils/coreutils

if you wanna read up on it

[uncut pawn]

It's fine Ras, tbh I don't even think there's a solid solution. I'm starting to compare cyber security tactics to cancer, there's no one-size-fit-all solution. Mainly because there's a cocktail of bs tactics being used, each cocktail unique to X Y Z platform. Meh.

[lament tendon]

Do you have any benchmarks on performance differences?

[sand trench]

youtube if you wanna watch others about it

[lament tendon]

There have been issues with rust rewrites being considerably slower due to poorer implementation.

[sand trench]

ubuntu if you wanna see a linux system implement it as their base now

[lament tendon]

Fair.

I might keep an eye on this, would be interested in switching as well when it shows itself as a valid replacement.

[uncut pawn]

I installed Ubuntu earlier today on a VM, was weird not being on windows for once

[sand trench]

well considering cannoical thinks it is ready for being used as the default on ubuntu yeah.....

[lament tendon]

Good sign, true.

But that does not automatically mean it works perfectly on arch based stuff.

On the other hand I doubt there will be any major issues if it is at that point already.

[sand trench]

apparently there was an error with the date commands -r option

[lament tendon]

Oof. :/

[sand trench]

that was not found by test cases before a few days ago at most

[lament tendon]

Well, we will see.

[sand trench]

yeah

so uutils in ubuntu should be default in 25.10 and in 26.04

[lament tendon]

Would personally not switch for now, if there are still surface level issues like this that recently...

[sand trench]

and beyond if nothing breaks badly

[uncut pawn]

Linux is hard and hurts my head.

[lament tendon]

You know when that's supposed to be released?

[uncut pawn]

But I have a Steam deck, and that uses Linux iirc, it hurts my head less

[sturdy sequoia]

it just takes getting used to

[sand trench]

25.10 should have already been released unless it had broken stuffs

[trail barn]

Eventually you will reach a point where going back to windows is more painful

[lament tendon]

You'll start loving it after the first two or three weeks of suffering.

[sand trench]

26.04 is april next year

[uncut pawn]

Maybe!

Why do people use Linux over Windows anyhow? Like, benefits ect. IIRc it's more "Freeing" or something. Linux

[lament tendon]

True, went life on the 9th.

[sturdy sequoia]

i started using linux because the tools i wanted werent available in windows

[boreal scarab]

Nahhhhh. I'm Scandinavian, I was in my tshirt in a cold office, probably round 50 or 60, for about 8 hours today

[trail barn]

One of the driving factors for me is less bloat and my system using less resources

[lament tendon]

Major reduction in idle resource usage, way less (or no) telemetry collection or ads.
The open source community is one of the best things I ever discovered in my life as well.

[sand trench]

shadow started using linux as their windows key broke in the upgrade from 8.1 to 10

[boreal scarab]

https://tenor.com/view/eggs-egg-built-different-im-built-different-smash-gif-27648548

[sand trench]

like incorrectly shadow thinks :P

[lament tendon]

And if you get into Linux a bit deeper, way better ways to customize your system and workflow.

[sand trench]

yeah ricing is neat once you get there

[lament tendon]

In my personal opinion, it is also a lot more convenient to work with.

But that is subjective, I suppose.

[mossy river]

I use an OS based on my needs and convenience

[sand trench]

the privacy and security of linux is also nice
though windows has linux beaten in a few things with security

[uncut pawn]

Is it still socially acceptable to shit on Apple? Mac, ect? Or am I late to the party? I'm all about android/windows. And if we're talking freedom (Linux prob having the most) am I wrong to say Apple has the least? I wish I could explain it better, just feels like IOS is really...exclusive? "Use our stuff. You gotta use our stuff. Our stuff only. FL studio? No. Garage Band." ect ect ect. Idk. I have an ipad, that's it.

[mossy river]

People that die hard one type of OS either doesn't have the resources to use multiple or is limiting themselves for no reason lmao

[lament tendon]

Meh. Everyone should use what they like most.

I have my opinions about different OSes and the companies behind them but I hate when people try to force their own preffered OS onto others.

[sand trench]

shadow can use windows but it is painful as shadow rarely use it

[lament tendon]

They all have advantages and disadvantages.

[sand trench]

mostly as there is nearly nothing in shadows workflow that requires windows

[uncut pawn]

If we're talking advantages, I'll admit I really like Apple's UI/interface. Das about it tho.

[lament tendon]

Which will not prevent me from praising Linux into oblivion when given the chance.

[sand trench]

apple is a barrier to entry of money grows on the tree in your living room

<--- might have played the sims a bit to much in early years

[lament tendon]

Same. Specially since Winboat/Bottles came around. And for the small remainder I just have a VM.

[frail ermine]

i use windows 10 for stuff i can't do on linux, using ubuntu for software engineer, coding/programming, web-development.. linux kali for cyber security

[lament tendon]

Apple stuff works really well but is very damn expensive.

[trail barn]

You can easily get this with a linux distro. Under the hood apple IOS is linux.

[sand trench]

also windows 11 is the os that created the most ewaste in history

[frail ermine]

i got 3 operating systems on 1 hard disk

[lament tendon]

Also major compatability issues at times.

[lament tendon]

It is not, it's Unix.

There's a slight difference.

[mossy river]

I'd probably VM rather than having them all in separate partitions but that's just me

I also prefer MacOS for SoftEng, personal preference

[trail barn]

My bad

[uncut pawn]

Ios feels gatekeepy, I guess that's the word. But yeah, regarding Linux, I might look for into it one day. Dunno. Depends on what I do in the future..

[trail barn]

Your right

[sand trench]

windows 11 bad as it pushes people to get new computers to be secure and therefor get rid of their older devices improperly

[lament tendon]

No need to apologize for that.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @mossy river (current: #6 - 1832)

[mossy river]

In the past Apple's choices could be argued for security, nowadays they're just petty

[sand trench]

the few times recently when shadow got to touch macs they are nice with that homebrew stuffs

[lament tendon]

Windows 11 dies when you spam the windows button because the menu is written in react and the processes stack.

[mossy river]

Done

[frail ermine]

thanks

[sand trench]

that is a one way to mess up performance yeah sure but it is not as major as creating tons of ewaste

[mossy river]

That's wrong, it dies when you press it once because it tries to load poorly optimised animations and destroys your PC

[uncut pawn]

Petty and overpriced, yeah. I dunno if it's ignorant to say "An apple can do less than a PC, yet cost more on average" but das how I feel.

[lament tendon]

Welp, I will avoid Windows like hell no matter what.

No way I am supporting MS.

[uncut pawn]

When it comes to "things a mac can do, that a PC can't" I feel like the list is short. Meh. But I digress. I was trying to learn how to code, at some point. Might get into it again one day. Depends.

[mossy river]

the Macbook M-chips are super powerful, but Apple is acting like they're still making revolutionary releases

[uncut pawn]

I bring it up because Linux is apparently good for those interested in code ect

[trail barn]

Did anyone compete in the dragos CTF that ended today?

[narrow yew]

@sand trench Are you attending Security fest to throw cheese?

[frail ermine]

2024 - 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.

[uncut pawn]

Oh. I forgot all about macbooks tbh

[mossy river]

I'd argue that a Mac can do more because you can't develop Apple software on a Windows machine 😆

[frail ermine]

i call it windows spyware

[sand trench]

where??
When????
how much?????

[narrow yew]

I am moving to Mac next year for work

[narrow yew]

wwwinterpub next friday 😄

[lament tendon]

Depends. If you want to develop for Windows or in C#, Linux will be painful.

For Python, there's hardly a difference between the two.

And for Rust, I would recommend Linux.

So it kinda depends on what you wanna do.

[frail ermine]

u can just use all of them whenever u like, with partitionsz

[mossy river]

MacOS is the Linux for Windows users

[narrow yew]

Bigger orgs have Devboxes or VDI for this

It is not an issue

[blazing granite]

Linux is good for those who are interesting in using it 🙂 I've used Linux for 32 years and I don't code 🙂

[mossy river]

You can do that too with VMs 😄

[sand trench]

[narrow yew]

hahaha

[frail ermine]

@mossy river vms makes my pc slow or it doesnt really feel like a pc anymore 😆 but i understand what u saying

[uncut pawn]

It does make me wonder dorky things tbh. Like "why can't a PC run apple software? What's preventing it? It's a computer, computers are like...powerful. And smart people can make things work". I know that's not how it works, but it's always how I view things subconciously. I have a bad habit of viewing technology as magic, sometimes. And have a difficult time realizing that some things aren't "possible"

[narrow yew]

[narrow yew]

That fire will make the laptop feel good a longer time.

[sand trench]

hmmm could probably get there..... now debatable if shadow will or not

[lament tendon]

The fact that MacOS/IOS is proprietary (non-free, private source code) software. In some cases, the CPU architecture is also different.

[mossy river]

mmmm ARM, the worst invention since politics

[narrow yew]

I could not get tickets to the Con earlier this year. But we went to Sec-T

[narrow yew]

Add Tanium. Cortex, Altiris ontop of that

that battle for the CPU for 10min

everytime you boot up

[uncut pawn]

Ooo. I think I understand. Kind of. It's kind of wild though, isn't it? World is massive. And yet we only have a handful of competetion in that regard (I think?) Linux, IOS, and windows. Why not more? I don't want more, but still. Idk.

[blazing granite]

we need an opensource bios/cpu 🙂

[lament tendon]

CPU will be rough, I imagine. Would defo be cool tho!

[frail ermine]

apple = smart.. i never used their products but they sold a phone years ago, without 3.5jack i guess, u had to buy it separate for 10euro,, so 1million iphone users buy 1 for 10euro = 10 million euro more profit 🙃

[uncut pawn]

then again. I'm the same person who asked "Why is there no internet 2?"

[torpid vessel]

[lament tendon]

Kinda hard to get an open source manufacturing plant up and running.

[frail ermine]

@torpid vessel 😆😆

[uncut pawn]

Technically, there could be an internet 2. But there was a good reason why there isn't. I just forgot what that reason was. Lmfao.

[blazing granite]

internet 2.0 is actually the one you're using right now 🙂

[uncut pawn]

Oh. Well. Internet 3!

[sturdy sequoia]

the dark web 😛

[lament tendon]

There's more, but not many and it's very niche.
Essentially everyone who does not want to go for MacOs/Windows goes for some version of Linux or Open/FreeBSD, and there are a lot of different Linux-Distributions will all sorts of features.

[frail ermine]

atleast we can choose whatever we want 😆

[lament tendon]

Facts.

[uncut pawn]

And I reckon if someone wanted to create their own operating system from scratch, said operating system wouldn't be compatible with 80-90% of the internet..rendering it pointless? Not sure if that's how it works, but I wouldn't be surprised.

[sturdy sequoia]

are you studying any IT at the moment?

[lament tendon]

More or less? Being compatible with the internet is rather "easy", as you only need to implement HTTP and HTML support for most of it, but any other software will have a hard time.

A very popular example of a completely custom operating system is TempleOS.

Anyway, question for the big brain hackers. If a website bans you--and weren't willing to break in to the website with your amazing hacker powers (As in, I would never go that far), do you have to accept that it might just not be possible to regain control of the situation if their security is just that good? Should I throw in the towel?....Maybe I just have to accept that once certain ip ranges are blacklisted..that's a wrap...

[blazing granite]

Good plan. OSWE is great fun. It's much older -- I know a fair few people who complain about that -- but it's a really good kickstart for code review and white box web app testing. Those are quite niche skills in many teams.

Much more relevant than OSED these days.
Although TBF, I use my OSED notes for maldev more than I use my OSEP notes lmao

Let me know how you find maldev academy. I hear good things.

Sektor 7 is an awesome complement for OSEP too.
I used their first course as prep for the OSEP exam, after finishing PEN-300. Basically went back and rewrote a bunch of tools in C++, + integrated some new content in.

Ended up not even noticing the AV lmao

Play a real piano. Far nicer sound.

You mean a synth?

I love Scotland, the land of the whisky and also I had an exfg that she was from Glasgow

Back in High School in ye olde times, we had an electric piano in the back of the class I'd play on when we were done with everything. I tHINK it was called a yamaha? Anyway, I remember having fun pressing random keys and trying to find a tune. And memorizing those keys to string together a tune. I guess you can do that with regular piano too, but I just like electric.

Love a good organ. I can't play them properly though.

[uncut pawn]

Lmfaoo. It's okay. And yeah, I wish I could explain better. I guess I just like...the sounds? And I like the aesthetic/vibe of acoustic. I guess in a weird way I like the thought of going out camping, and playing a guitar like that. Compared to say, any other guitar. Meanwhile for electric piano...I guess it's the opposite? At this point imma just say my soul screams for electric piano and acoustic guitar with no reasonable explanation

[pallid lotus]

The sheer power of an instrument which takes up an entire room is something though

[sand trench]

well you can probably play them better then shadow... shadow is musically illterate

My hot take is that banning guns/trying to force gun control would be pointless, but only because too many guns are in circulation. I think such things only work in different countries because "they started early". Gun culture is too engraved into the American bones. Like, drugs. Meth and cocaine aren't legal. But you sure as hell can find it I'm told. Tldr; I think it's too late

KitKat day

[uncut pawn]

Tbh if people want a different topic, I'm curious about something. Do y'all think a social media platform that pretty much has "no rules other than what would get the owner put in prison" do well? Or would it fail? I'm not just talking about the P word. I sometimes wonder if people are fine with the rules that get sprinkled on ever-social-service ever, or they just tolerate it. Then again, I hate 4chan, and I think 4chan is as close as it gets to "no filter"?

In my head, I imagine people would want a space with next to no rules. But maybe it'd be a disaster

[oblique loom]

Funny thing about 4chan, you cant use a VPN anymore to make a post

[fervent cove]

4chan?

[uncut pawn]

I remember booting up Gmod and being confused why I heard kids, mainly because like..Gmod is old. Then it hit me, streamers.

Because like, I was a kid when I first found gmod. And that was eons ago. So yeah. I imagine streamers are the reason. I miss Gmod.

[silk crane]

🥺🥺

[uncut pawn]

It's okay Zayd...GTA 6 comes out soon.

[silk crane]

Yeah next year

[uncut pawn]

Yeah. I feel like it'll get delayed tho.

[silk crane]

Kindoff
N d graphics looks more realistic

[uncut pawn]

I just hope the character creation for GTA online is good. Feels like GTA 5 online went out of its way to make sure you couldn't create a good looking girl.

[charred cave]

Wsp

[uncut pawn]

Wsp?

[charred cave]

Good wbu

[uncut pawn]

NO I mean like

What's Wsp

[silk crane]

Yeah,,I think they are changing characters

[silk crane]

What's up

[uncut pawn]

Ooo. Nothin much, just another day.

[charred cave]

Like how are you doing

[uncut pawn]

@sturdy sequoia I just realized I messaged you a while ago

I'm doing decent, just another day tbh. Mundane, but not awful.

[sturdy sequoia]

i dont accept dms from people i dont know

[silk crane]

Cul

[charred cave]

I wanna watch some david bombal videos but it’s too late 😞

[uncut pawn]

@sturdy sequoia Well I recall you saying you were curious about what I was yapping about earlier, so if you want me to ask you publically, I can. The reason why I didn't was because it's not exactly something I wanted to flood a channel with

But. That also depends if you like, have a solution.

[blazing granite]

it's never too late to watch david bombal videos 🤣

[sturdy sequoia]

nah i was just curious. if its too long dont bother

[charred cave]

Nah i mean it’s like 1:30 am here I’m gonna sleep 🫠

[silk crane]

Which country are u from

[blazing granite]

good night then 🙂 💤

[charred cave]

I miss OTW videos 🫠

[charred cave]

OSINT? 🫣

[silk crane]

Nigeria ryt

[uncut pawn]

@sturdy sequoia Website doesn't ban you, they flag every account you make instead. Flagged accounts get manually reviewed by admins. The account is then either banned, or approved. Tedious and they have you by the balls. How would you regain control over the situation?

[charred cave]

Tunisia

[blazing granite]

I'm curious, but not that curious 😉 🤣

[silk crane]

Ok 😱same time with my country

[sturdy sequoia]

so you have an account on a website, currently being reviewed by admins, and you want to somehow bypass that and gain access again?

[charred cave]

I think it’s called social engineering not OSINT
OSINT is collecting public informations from net without asking the victim to tell you right?

[charred cave]

Fr??

[oblique loom]

Yes

OSINT does not require actual engagement with the target

[silk crane]

I know it ,but don't wanna stress

[charred cave]

That make sense

[silk crane]

Yeah
Am Nigeria

[uncut pawn]

Kind of. Long story short, I'm curious as to -what- they are doing. Because there a heck ton of false positives. I have had friends that signed up on the site in question, brand new, no vpn, and were still flagged. While other friends weren't. There have been times where I pass the approval process (No clue why. Profile can be absolutely blank), and times where I don't. I want to get through, each time. Or most times. @sturdy sequoia

[charred cave]

Oh I thought you are from Tunisia as well

[silk crane]

😆😆

[silk crane]

Nah
But our time frame moves together

[sturdy sequoia]

contact the websites support? im not sure what youre trying to do

[charred cave]

Yes

Anyway

Gn guys

[silk crane]

Sleep well bro

[oblique loom]

It sleepy time for the old world

[uncut pawn]

The admins don't respond to support, and are notorious (in our small niche community) for being incompetent. What ever they are doing, is botched and random people are caught in the crossfire.

My thing is this. The amount of security, that I am having issues with, on a myspace-esque server...why doesn't Netflix have this nonsense? Because the site I am talking about, is niche af. It's wild.

[oblique loom]

Quick redact the first part

[silk crane]

😆😆

[uncut pawn]

Gwuhhhhh

[sturdy sequoia]

yer it sounds like you want to do something illegal

[oblique loom]

Cause server mods

[uncut pawn]

Fineee

[sturdy sequoia]

doesnt matter. mods can see what youve deleted

[uncut pawn]

Guys, I love you, but I just need to be blunt

[oblique loom]

You can edit and not delete

Less sus

[silk crane]

Y

[uncut pawn]

Siiigh. It doesn't matter.

I've been at this for years, this ain't the way I'm going to solve my issue.

[oblique loom]

It's all good my dude

No stress

[silk crane]

Just dm I can help

[uncut pawn]

Thanks Zayd, you are indeed--based.

[silver sky]

The second someone says DM me I can help, screams your about to get socially engineered and fucked

[oblique loom]

Why pessimistic

Sometimes people wanna help

[silk crane]

Mtchewwww

[silk crane]

Bullshit

[oblique loom]

Maybe this server be full of tricks, but plenty are not like that

[silver sky]

The second they want to take it away from the public, especially as an unverified user. I'd always be suspicious

[oblique loom]

Theyre just new

Nothing wrong with that

I was new once

[boreal scarab]

@silver sky @silver sky @silver sky @silver sky @silver sky

[uncut pawn]

What does socially engineered mean? That sounds painful

[boreal scarab]

[silver sky]

No but you are in a server full of hackers.

Always be wary

[silver sky]

[oblique loom]

We are here to teach each other, whole point

This is a learning server

And not everyone here is a hacker

[silk crane]

I know am not verified ,but stop being a foolish

[oblique loom]

Lots are SOC

[sturdy sequoia]

if you cant discuss it here, it sounds shady

[boreal scarab]

I'm IT, but specialize in OSINT

[silk crane]

Thanks bro ,u are more understanding

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @oblique loom (current: #376 - 20)

[boreal scarab]

[oblique loom]

Its manipulation to summerize

I do SE quite often

More so than code hacking lol

[uncut pawn]

Bruh if that's the case then hackers are playing 3 dimensional chess for no reason. Why can't y'all just be evil and help me

[oblique loom]

Excuse me?

Evil?

xD

Na na na

[uncut pawn]

Ye like in the movies

[oblique loom]

This aint James Bond

[blazing granite]

He's not foolish at all, it's a legitimate concern

[uncut pawn]

I don't think there's a solution to my problem anyways, and I moreso just have to accept the fact there are--in fact--ways to be locked out of certain things on the interwebs. Eh.

My mentality has always been, if I'm not in a physical cage, I am not in a cage

But maybe I am.

[oblique loom]

It just be like that sometimes my dude 🍺

[silk crane]

But y not understand things B4 speaking

[uncut pawn]

But does it really be like that sometimes? Maybe. I just don't believe that. But maybe I should...

[sturdy sequoia]

just follow me into this dark alley where no one can see us. its fine.

[oblique loom]

Yea, it is like that sometimes

We can hate it all as much as we want, I know I do

But that wont change anything

[blazing granite]

That's remind me of The Chessmaster 2000 🙂

[uncut pawn]

I guess I'll just ask this...hackers of this discord. If someone banned you from a website, is it possible that even you, could not viably get back in? If the answer is yes...I'll believe you. But HECK. Am I even allowed to ask that question here? If not, sorry!

[sturdy sequoia]

nothing is 100% secure

[oblique loom]

NO, its not always possible

You cant break thru every security implementation

[uncut pawn]

Bwuh.

[oblique loom]

Sometimes you just gotta wait or go a different route

[uncut pawn]

It rustles my jimmies, it really do.

[blazing granite]

does 🤣 😛

[oblique loom]

I could SQL inject bypass a login page, but yuknow the chances of that working are?

Very slim

[uncut pawn]

I reckon so, but for me I'm genuinely not interested in that super-duper hacker stuff. I know that gets into mega illegal territory ect

[oblique loom]

What you probably are looking for, would be a MITM or SE

[uncut pawn]

It's the main reason I never took up hacking, I don't trust myself. I'm a troublemaker sure, but my lack of knowledge keeps me from doing wild stuff

[oblique loom]

You would have to go those routes

[uncut pawn]

Yeah...

I guess do. Hm.

[oblique loom]

Its all good dude

[oblique loom]

When I was 13 I hacked my neighbors internet to download games from Xbox Live

Also I hacked their printer lol

[rapid merlin]

Then what are you now

[oblique loom]

What am I now?

Uh

[blazing granite]

lack of knowledge and moral fibre 😉 🤣

[oblique loom]

A person

lol

[uncut pawn]

If I was an omega level hacker I could just hack the wifi in my area and be unbannable, but I am dumb and cautious

[sturdy sequoia]

i would cook and sell meth but i dont know enough chemistry /s

[oblique loom]

Deauth attack :)

[uncut pawn]

Every single wifi these days is password protected, but tfh I get why now that I know more about ip/wifi stuff

[rapid merlin]

You maybe a bad hacker now

[oblique loom]

Uhhh

No

[uncut pawn]

I have the morals of a horny dolphin

[oblique loom]

Lol

[uncut pawn]

But

[oblique loom]

Again deauth attack

[uncut pawn]

What's deauth attack

[oblique loom]

You will probs need an ALFA wifi adapter

[uncut pawn]

Oooo

[oblique loom]

Deauthentication attack

[rapid merlin]

Am I right or not I don't trust you because you will hack me 🤣

[uncut pawn]

Nahhhh. I don't wwant to get into trouble, I'm not much of a risk taker. Back in my younger days, I was all about risks. But I'm old now, bones are brittle. Ain't what I use to be

[oblique loom]

Yes I will hack you. BOO! 👻

[oblique loom]

Not even, we the same age lol

[blazing granite]

old???

[uncut pawn]

I am 29

[oblique loom]

I feel just as young as I did in my mid 20s

Im 29

too

[blazing granite]

that's not old

[uncut pawn]

Well I feel old. Also @Zayd WHERE AREYOU

[simple wadi]

cute 😛

[oblique loom]

Well, you aint lol

I aint old, nither are you

[uncut pawn]

@silk crane Sorry, wrong command. Where you be

[sturdy sequoia]

yep. so is height

what?

[oblique loom]

I may be 29 but I still got the body going xP

Bring it on bois

[blazing granite]

I was about to say that 🤣

I'm glad I'm not the only one

[regal dawn]

Is it just me or are these priv esc rooms insanely draining 😂

[oblique loom]

I might go out tonight for the holidays but idk

Probs should

Go touch grass, yknow? lol

[sturdy sequoia]

yer anything that i cant just copy from gtfobins does take me a lot of effort

[regal dawn]

thats not really what i meant lol, i was referring to the huge amount of text for each type of priv esc

its like an hour of reading

[sturdy sequoia]

oooohhhh haha

[uncut pawn]

I am just going to pay someome to make a website exactly like the one I got banned from, and since I'll be the owner, I can't be banned. E-Z..................how much would it be to commission the creation of a website?

[regal dawn]

what kind of website did you get banned from so you have the need to fully recreate it 😭

[sturdy sequoia]

oh boy, youre in for a ride

[uncut pawn]

Oh, it's nothing special. I am just mentally ill and hate being banned

A.K.A, I hate losing.

[regal dawn]

tuff

[regal dawn]

dang

[uncut pawn]

I was doing well but I was kinda just throwing shit at the wall and I know for codinng, you don't wanna do that. Because like

[regal dawn]

praying fully completing tryhackme will help me get a government job for the military in pentesting / cyber sec

[sturdy sequoia]

read the last couple of hours of this channel

[regal dawn]

🙏

[regal dawn]

aint working allat

[uncut pawn]

"Wow. You made a website Raven. How does it work?" "Dunno"

[sturdy sequoia]

yer its not worth it

[blazing granite]

🤣

[regal dawn]

whats yalls opinion on kali linux, i hear so many people clowning on it

prob cuz of the skids

but idk

[rocky robin]

Hello, guys. I'm a newcomer to cybersecurity and I am going through the introductory rooms for Metasploit. I'm having trouble answering some of the questions based on what was taught. I happen to consult the hint button more often than I would like. In most cases, this has been enough but there has been one occasion where I had to refer to a resource outside of the material that THM provides because the solution is entirely something you could not have come up with. Based on the room info this is at easy difficulty too. I wanted to know if it is common to feel this lost/overwhelmed. Am I meant to watch YouTube videos of how others cracked the room when I get stuck?

[uncut pawn]

Linux is hard

[sturdy sequoia]

i pretty much only use kali for all my hacking needs

[uncut pawn]

unban me and i paypal u 5 dolla

[regal dawn]

which room exactly are you at? btw #room-help is the better channel

wait they said "introductory rooms for metasploit"

mb

[blazing granite]

kali is a great set of tools for pentesting, and kali purple has also some blue stuff, but it's not meant to be used as a daily driver. If you want to use linux in your day to day life use one of the other thousands distros available

[sturdy sequoia]

yer this chan scrolls fast. your question might get buried here

[rocky robin]

I was able to clear the room using the hint. Or several hints, actually. But, yeah, just a general question. I feel like some questions you could have never guessed like when they ask you to use a module you wouldn't have known existed in Metasploit because it wasn't at all covered in prior rooms or tasks.

[uncut pawn]

Tbh, is "hacking" just knowing how to code? I legit took some coding courses back in college, passed my classes but kinda stopped. Financial reasons ect. But I wasn't awful.

[gritty bane]

No.

Not at all.

[regal dawn]

i see, thanks. Currently i have mint on my laptop but when working with THM i use kali linux full 2025 as a hyper v. Its just always those "master haxxor" tiktoks popping up in my head when i live boot kali from a usb somewhere in public 😭

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @blazing granite (current: #55 - 192)

[gritty bane]

Knowing how to code helps with hacking but it's not the same

[uncut pawn]

How do you learn the ways of hacking

[gritty bane]

Hacking is just breaking stuff

[regal dawn]

imo the room is realtivly easy but i've used metasploit before so i cant really judge

[gritty bane]

Make a try hack me account they'll explain

[regal dawn]

what languages do you recommend?

[gritty bane]

Depends what you wanna go for

[regal dawn]

true

hm

[blazing granite]

hyper v sucks 🤣 also IDK who is that master h but if he's in tiktok I don't see how can be a master 😛

[eternal schooner]

Need to steal 411m
u alive?\

[gritty bane]

Python is mostly used for exploits and scripts

Easy to pick up

[sturdy sequoia]

C and C++ if you want to make programs from scratch

[regal dawn]

ngl i was planning on getting to know a bit of everything and then prob focusing on writing exploits maybe

[gritty bane]

You should focus on one thing at a time, you'll just get overwhelmed this way

[sturdy sequoia]

Html/php pretty self explanatory
