But the salary is tooo low
you'll make money much faster
trading you mean?
Then you need to change your expectations
if I know like the length of the answer in thm, can I use it for my own advantage or is that a bad practice
yeah kinda
Depends on your goals
Well its just for some assistance nothing much... you can choose not to count it
I was wondering to try print-on-demand. if you have ever heard of it. But idk I am not sure if it will work
It won't
So what will any suggestions?
Get a job
@worldly bay Please slow down. Further spam will result in a short timeout.
Nah I am looking for something new and hot. Like dropshipping was years ago.
Guys I was wondering if it is necessary a PC for programming, pen testing and tinkering or is it just enough if I have an android 64bits with termux? thanks
It's not enough
Get a cheap ass laptop
whys that π€
studying and learning.... i mean it's my first CTF in thm and I am already struggling...
Study more
they make laptops for donkeys?
They do i guess, donkeys are among us afterall
after around 10 hours of UI automation testing im going to have to ditch it for phase 2 of my tuning software because it needs to be too dynamic and complex. time to think up a new solution
haha
i mean theory is nice but I need some practice too
I've done 50 CTFS on THM and still struggle on them
i already wasnt a fan of UI automation as its very fragile and hard to scale across systems beyond the origin system but
do I need to be a genius for cyber security and tinkering?
it's not so bad, don't be intimidated by crypto in general
if your IQ isnt above 130 just give up now /j you dont need to be one no
No, but you need to be able to figure things out and how things work on your own
damn... so i shouldnt feel bad huh...
We call this troubleshooting and problem solving skills
Just persistent
what about claude to guide me? like teach basics, yay or nay?
Not at all. It takes a long time!
Okay thank you
Gave +1 Rep to @dark wolf (current: #38 - 293)
if you are good at self troubleshooting you can get far
Okayy π
can work, but would suggest against it
Some people like having the answer given to them, others relish the 3 days of research for a 5 second solution
you will be alright just stay at it :))
Claude could lie to you and you wouldn't know
^ exactly
If AI doesn't know, it makes stuff up
i would know if it wouldnt work i mean
it, arguably, takes more experience to effectively use an LLM for stuff
which is why its best to use a 100% human written source where you can guarantee the data is coming from a knowledgeable source
im not asking it to do it
mostly help with "how to document correctly" or tools to use
@mortal sparrow If you are VERY careful wtih your prompting, and turn it from less of a "heres the answer" andmore to a "have you looked into X domain" consultant, it might work okay
a lot of people seem to think the opposite cough
depends on the complexity of the project.
Agreed!! Several times I have asked claude or gemini for help and I see that it's not going to help and wonder why it's having me do that
even for simple tasks, there's plenty of margin for error
I do run it like that
Dont give me the answer, guide me through it and let me figure it out but I still need ur help
``` type shit
anything past boiler plate complexity will choke the hell out of a vibe coder
Other times it gives me something and I'm too quick to judge
one thing thats becoming a depricated skill rn is front end web dev
AI can handle front end work like no other and do it effectively
Eew. tell me about it. innovation is dead. everyone wants you to vibe it out
its a huge conversation in web dev right now and it lwky sucks
I wrote a spec for osmeone recently. they wanted GLBA && HIPAA compliance AND they wanted to use agentic solutions and oh .. they wanted to do it all on one piece of bare metal.. like are you f*ng kidding me
beep beep
Heres how I propose you do it, you can pay me for this now, and follow it, or ignore it it up to you
bootstrap made it a lot easier for AI to do the rest of the work
i enjoy web development quite a bit, but its becoming more effective to get your html files spun up by an LLM and handle the backend logic yourself with guardrails if you use llm for backend
Boop beep
lol "ai did my front end" is how half of the "someone used 80,000$ with my API key last night" stories start
idk things like codex review have gotten marginally better at this and it takes a basic understanding of web dev to avoid that exact issue
I think that if you provide AI some very specific constraints on how to code your project. it will do alright. but by the time you explain the exact process of things. you might have well coded it yourself
thats an issue for vibe coders
@polar spoke which hash you use to store passwds?
passwords for what system
@polar spoke Oh thats easy ... Afghani Supreme Kush!
usually more of a constraint is whats available and what's going to work well in the intended environment
there was a recent study done where programmers feel 25% faster but are actually shown to be like 25% slower when using AI
Your company I mean, you provide passwd protection
and selection is just "whatever is strongest" after that
lol
Name of it?
i do use ai for a lot of stuff that wont ever touch the hands of other ppl tho like self use softwares for my work
if its broken its something only i have to deal w
name of what?
The hash you use
it depends
Oh
but i also have to be extremely careful because my work is very sensitive and could result in the loss of thousands of dollars for me if anything goes wrong with my software
where available, high cost bcrypt is usually my suggestion
but in some cases it's either not available or there's requirements to use others
I believe it just opens to more vulnerabilities
LLM likes to skip security checks sometimes
Share your pastes securely!
also wordlist suggestion? like must try on first run ? and not the 10mil one please
Argon2id is recommended currently for some systems, FIPS wants PBKDF2 specifically, scrypt/yescrypt are being used on linux systems, etc.
this is why self experience is important. you need to make sure the necessary steps are implemented properly
Oh wow the exams are very expensive
nah not really compared to others
also fuck hydra man why the fuck is it so sloww mannnnnn
I never understand tho why 200-350β¬ for an exam
hello. sorry to bother, I have a question about learning linux + bash, Does anyone know if OverTheWire.labs.org is good for learning and starting linux, I want to get into cybersecurity before college
True
Ya i know about argon2id, got a generator for that, I like it, can I use it in daily life as a normal person?, or too extreme
"use it daily?"
what do you mean
:3 overthewire bandit is nice for learning basics of linux.
where are you hashing passwords?
ok thank you, im currentlly on level 7 or 8, im just trying to do it after school and before work, im still in higschool
sadly if i accidentally send a bad hex address edit back to the ECU i brick it. checksums are very important
Gave +1 Rep to @topaz steeple (current: #193 - 56)
I always knew that for in person exams you paid more cuz the professors and exam staff was gonna come and u basically had to pay them ofc, but for a website form it seems overkill
Gonna build something, a local software I guess, where I can hash my passwords with argon2id, is that a good idea 
Or also you can try learning more bout linux by using it in a VM
whats the point?
Take the plunge, boot bare metal, convert windows to a vm
yeah, right now im llearning it in overthewire, and then tryhackme.com
dual boot like a real lad
Learn about linux by daily driving it
In person exams (proctored) are more valuable than non-proctored exams because you can cheat on non-procotored exams. As a result, companies don't value them as much.
Its the best way
Lovely start tbh.
Safety,?
Just a project idea, came while I was taking a shower
@mental spoke Dual boot ... amateur! Real people use vfio
Still why so much money
hashing passwords as a user doesn't really make any sense, how would you use them?

Maybe the pass manager is where u input the password instead of a login form
Economics, supply and demand, perceived worth. Depends on who released the cert
Oh no actually
Oh, shit right, it's for companies, where the user passwords are converted into hashes and matched up
Im doing linux --> Bash --> python --> C++ ---> ASM
this is my learning levels i guess you could say
:3
not sure what you mean here tbh
You know. systems with 3 video cards, 5 hard drives, more cores than anyone can tell you why you'd want it, and enough ram with cash value currently that would make a day trader blush
My bad chickenman
right
Sorry
Good luck on assembly, also i recommend c and then cpp
@sleek heron Hows your bash coming along?
True
No idk either
lol no worries, this is why we ask questions π
Chickenman, got some chicken ?
Well, what else can I do using hashing, as a project
:3
I think thats cannibalism
Thnx, I'm glad i asked
π

imagine trying to get someone new to linux to use fucking vfio
and doing it with one GPU LOL
Vfio?Whats that lol?
virtual access to hardware
@mental spoke I used to work for redhat .. you ever walk a 90 friggin year old lady throgh settign up a soft uart modem to get to the internet on red hat 6.0 professional?
Are you going for Computer Science/Programming?
um im not sure i started linux last night via OverTheWire.labs.org, im understanding it very well, with cd, cat, pwd, find, cat ./ etc. but im only 2 hours in so far, I woulld have started with tryhackme.com, but my bank was blocking my payment so I had to go to the bank and unblock it
Ohhh thats smart
@mental spoke thats 2 hr conversation easy
Hot take: WSL is ass
Not a hot take its true
Yeah, im going to college for Comp science, and then doing a federal job, getting federal background and then hopefully joining Department of Defence for America
actually WSL, or more specifically WSL2, is very useful
it's just ass for what most people seem to be using it for
Just use linux like a man.
I would learn C++ before python
Good luck!!
which is trying to pretend it's a VM
fr why ?
pass through your hardware in linux directy to a VM. basically results in full windows pc running near native with gpu performance in the vm
Hes njoking (hopefully)
isnt c++ hell hard for starting ? ?
C++ is object oriented, python starts with procederal
Hi guys! Quick question: why is networking so important in ethical hacking and pentesting? I'm starting Pre Security and want to understand why I should focus on it (or even if it's worth focusing on it) π Thanks!
its for special linux ppl that like to be extra
WSL2 is a great way to build binaries when you're doing dev from a windows box and need to compile something
You as a programmer want proper programming instruction
If u want a the middle of c and python golang is cool
Sorry, If I'm being mean or annoying, can I add you as a friend, because i really like hashing concepts and ideas, so and you are like a legend, it would we good have some guidance in my future ideas and projects, so if you don't mind
Thnx
@sullen plume I have a computer. lets say its an asus x399-e rog strix with a threadripper (12 core currently). 128 gb of ram. 2 video cards. an rx 580 (8gb) and a rx 550 (4gb) with extra hdds, and a few other pci cards like an nvidia a-2 amphere card and .... a pci-e to usb-3 adapter . At boot time it reserves a few connectors, cables and whatnot. and effectively tells linux "YOU CANT HAVE THIS" .. like putting a "this table reserved for soandso" at a restraunt
it will be more difficult to learn C++ if you learn python first, but if you learn C++ first, python will be easeier
sure why not
Thnx
Truer words have never been spoken
thats kind of like handing a person thats never shot a gun an automatic browning and saying hit every shot on this target 50m away
It boots off the 4gb unit and boots linux. Then when linux fulls boots, i can start qemu/libvirt vm of windows on the 8gb card with say 6 cores and 32gb of ram
why not just run a hypervisor
Oh and so u split ur pc into linux baremetal and windows baremetal all in the same time
@polar spoke Because this way the taskset does not touch the reserved assets
starting on C++ is starting on newgame ++ imo
oh, lol I love hunting, fishing and shooting guns, so that woulldnt even be hard for me your exmaple is destroyed by me sorry ;-;
Also u'd have to have elon musk's net worth to afford that ram
@sullen plume Exactly. Its a native windows system with only a teeny performance hit, and native linux system at full performance. and the linux system spawns multiple "guests " includin iwnodws.
I am outdoors man + comp nerd wtf is my life
seems a bit much but ok
Dont even talk about the RAM. I cant even afford to speak it
windows can even do secureboot
bruh i was going to buy an 1600$ pc buiild its not lilke $2500
hardware keys, whatever you want. and with the vfio pci-e to us3 adfapter you get high quality sound output thorugh those stupid usb based soundcards
But is it like virtual desktops where u switch from a os to another with a flick of a finger
Its only gon go up tho
They say its going down
Then you loop the usb3 to the usb audio out back to the line in on the analog port, then remix THAT wiht the linux sounds to the analog out to the speakers
i have more RAM than I know what to do with and I still need more lol
i think its cool but i just dual boot and switch to win when i really need it or pop open a lighweight QUEM win vm
How much
@sullen plume Actually no. My windows has its own ports on kvm .. 4 monitors for windows, 3 monitors for linux
too much
Yeah, once i get my truck fixed and some stuff ill buy a hellla good one, someone hit my truck in ther parking lot whille i was in class thankfully there insurance payed ;-;
im actually triple booting still
omg twinsssss
Each system has its own usb-3 for hid .. and its own hdmi outs for video .. and so on
Its like ur pc is proxmox basically
More RAM?!
Better lock em doors
But is linux and windows both virtualized, both baremetallized or one is host one is guest
@sullen plume ...sort of, i use that too. but this isn't proxmox. It's the best of both worlds. not only do you7 have teh autonomous vm's and the ability to create dynamic cores and allocations, you have the ability to configure the host os to be optimal for those same settings
lol. i have a job so i can buy a good pc, which will last me for many many many many years so yeah, im not to worried, but damn π ai companies stealing all ram
vfio is pretty complex
I can pause my windows system, create a snapshot in 5 seconds to ssd. Turn it back on, and run an update. if it bricks, i can reboot with the snapshot
Sounds complex, never gonna touch it
Ikrrr. I was thinking to buy too but now its all hopeless tbh
you need a specific personality type to handle it
Sounds very good, might touch it
DownloadMoreRAM.com - CloudRAM 2.0
Oh no i have a shitty pc i forgot
Yeah.. If you are "just use the default setup" you would never like this
i was trying to buy rtx 5090, + ryzen 9000x + 2, 32gb ddr5 sticks
don't tempt me, I might just set my swap to a mounted Google Drive
4 cpus, 16gb ddr4 512 nvme ssd
Hell nah
Thats alot lol
dfack is wrong with you lol
Diabolic
that shit works
Wat
it's just awful
Lol
Vega 3
yeah. but i woulld have a system which can run anything no more worries, from the laptop i have right now
What you got rn?
I wanna get a framework laptop theyre do cool
Has anyone here ever written security standards before
What if you really could βdownload more RAM?β Linux allows any block device to be swap space, so maybe you canβ¦
thats kinda how my two linux distros i have in my triple boot setup are, they both use BTRFS snapshots and it captures during package installs and updates etc and every few hours etc. i can always return to them at any time if it fails
Omg yes they are really cool but arent they like VERY expensive
Yes thats the issue
hp envy x360 laptop, 1tb ssd, 32gb ram, and ass ryzen 5000 amd, 5 graphics card, can barelly run fort on llow settings at 70 fps
and if the grub fails i can access my snapshots via the recovery tools on my USB
Isnt envy the printer
Hi chat
its decent for work + programing but for gamming, nahh bro dont even try not worth it
Excuse me? 5 GPUs????
Yeah dont even
Interesting, gonna see into it
man's running quake so fast time flows backwards π
no i mean the ryzen 5 type 1 gpu type 5
damn that prob makes no sense reading it
I have ryzen 5, 500 series gpu
like a vega 4k chipset?
the ram shortage is making ppl downbad
solutions will be found
frrrrrr bro
i lwky want to build a server stack with 256gb of DDR5
i need more storage AND RAM
killing me man
but im not mr moneybags rn
I love it for my minisforum hx90 but not much else .. and i really am entertaining the m2 nvme -> x4 pcie .. but i haven't found a card i want to build a power supply mount and chassis holder like a diy egpu with some chassis modifications to the box that has liquid silver in it. i mean what could go wrong
but yeah ...
it also needs to run a couple gpus in it, than it can handle ai tasks in the background
isnt liquid silver very good for cooling cpu, but very dangerous
Tired of these subscriptions tbh. Need a NAS
@mental spoke I'm still trying to model my a2 shroud and fan bracket
honestly, a box with 256gb doesn't sound too bad right now
you can get that done in low density
@sleek heron Depends if youa re taking stuff apart or not. if you dont touch it, its usually not going to be an issue
and get away pretty efficiently on cost
will be worth it when its done
oh ok
How do I contact support
yeah it could be a lot worse im sure i could build it for an okay cost atm
so like who is the smartest person here
@mental spoke O yeah. 60 watt amphere card with a 25cfm blower runnign around 28dBm
or is it dBa i forget
25cfm LOL
can i use usb stick ssd for swap =/
biggest issue is just that you're looking at a new platform, DDR4 boxes of that size are a lot cheaper
I mean the blower will do much higher than that. around 23-25cfm it will be entering into something with a cross section less than 4cm wide and about half cm high .. 23-25cfm is HUGE
why not
yeahh DDR4 is alot cheaper still than the ddr5 platform
well... yu started dumb things...
ok ill talk later i shouldl study some linux before i have to go to work
yeah 25 cfm is A LOT
CPUs for a DDR5 platform will cost you a pretty penny still
@mental spoke I figure anything above that the noise starts to climb to the 60-70dBm/dBa whatever
Hey all, I don't know if this is the right channel to ask the question but would you know a good portable PC to make dev (java) and embark it? for 1100β¬?
Sweet spot right now is 2nd or 3rd gen Epyc, ROME or MILAN, DDR4
nop... monofur nerd font
i agree actually
it looks good i was just messing
@polar spoke but then yo have to design the hw specs to make them whisper quiet ... or they sound like they shoudl be in a datacenter
lol this is easy
but also, for big systems, expect noise
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
my TR4 with 128gb of ram and all those videos and whatnot. makes .. 32dBm or less often around 30, only upwards of 32-35 when doing things like davinci renders
30 is probably the noise floor for your room
More or less π
honestly, if you're trying to do that, you're probably undercooling quite a few components
@polar spoke Not even. just using VERY big fans
well, that could work in theory
my corsairs got like 5 160's driving the central cooling, then a darkrock 4 tower cooler for the cpu and a 850 watt ps with big fan etc
Good day friends!
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
so much ppl with hard core pc, yet, no ne cracked my hash =/
though it blows upwards onto my kbm, and then the ups .. and THATs causing a resonation that drives me crazy ..
i love building pcs but one thing i dont do is build open loop water cooling for ppl unless they pay me quite a bit extra
What hash?
same 7z lol
yes
i dont like dealing with open loop and all the custom cooler blocks and connections and making sure everything is sealed with a purge test i just hate it
some ppl created hashcat (cough, cough) and nt even that no result
they are only necessary in workstations using really hot components all stacked together on extreme boards
yeah, it's a density move more than anything
or a heat transfer speed thing for some specific components
that too
but that's not as often the case as people seem to think
I mean its only what half a million iterations per each attempt. I can't imagine why they wouldn't want to waste power
I have a question, Iβm new into hash cracking; is there another tool that can be used to crack more hashes at once besides ophcrack?
hashcat
Does matter if you roll yoru cat up and smoke it in a bong, you still gotta do it half a million times for each attempt
I know hashcat and rock you
shadow uses hashcat to heat their house in the winter
Is there more?
not that bad tbh
it is not very effective
Hello all
Hey!!
once we reach the logical gate for the qubits to perform quantum gates. we will see qubit error correction at a high rate. and then you will see extreme encryption cracking
Hii
well... solve P=NP... and there you go
ehhhhhh yes and no
plenty of things will fall to quantum
but plenty of others will not
@polar spoke Lets assume its a simply binary exponent. see that $19 in the hash?
which makes the hype kinda wacky
btw... nice mvie about solved P=NP
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1801123/
most standard encryption will fall but time will really tell
what about it?
guys if I ever use linux, which distro should I use?
arch
Xubuntu.
dont listen to the archers
lightweight, simple to use
I've thought about Debian
arch is good once your comfortable with linux
it will get you in to a make-desktop-look-good spiral
and get you away from learning linux
this is what i did LMFAO
Debian, ubuntu great start
Okay thx!!
Gave +1 Rep to @narrow yew (current: #90 - 122)
thanks guys!
what's wrong with arch =/
too complex for someone new. arch is rolling
it has nothing to do with linux at that point besides a pretty desktop
arch breaks a lot easier than the avg setup
didn't break arch, i break luks lol
I never understood the meme of "I use arch btw"
Arch is good for gaming
guys what about windows 11? π
@El
what abt it?
Yo, finnally my arch got fixed and I'm back
-# no anime girl as bg
I don't know, some people keep saying it's bad

eh its got bloat but
I mean there are worse operating systems than arch out there.
there are also people sayin bacon sucks
(lord knows i use one)
true true
Ahhhh, man I wish I could send you my arch desktop ss, you would have nuked windows
use whatever you are comfy with π
on the flip side, my os rebuilds no longer take 17 hrs since i set up a dinky lil 512gb ssd for builds
-# I still need to install browser on it

Okayy got it!
What is the most worthless OS you've ever tried.
Talking about browsers, is it okay if I stick with Google or should I consider using another one?
Brave
Comes with inbuilt ad blocker
So you basically getting yt premium
:0
@bold rover Which version though?
For me, its a tie up. i dont know if its BeOS, or os2 warp
BeOS was amazing ..but couldn't do anythign with it
Warp .. is just ugly
11
@bold rover Thats what happens when you fire your hundreds of dev team members in favor of a llm
Fr
Ok another question I apologize
I kinda do understand what Claude says to use and which tools n why
But is it normal for a brute force room to brute for 30 minutes?
Or am I doing it the slow way?
Just do it
Don't look at the time
There's the quick way and the right way
is this a good gpu ?
Do what you must
@mortal sparrow Take up crochetting, practice throwing cutlery, learn to sear a good steak/chicken breast
define good
Meh. soso. What are you trying to do with it
:0
im building a budget pc so im picking the parts
Yeah but neither did I or Claude could figure out a faster way
Yeah figured so
I played some Bloons TD mean while
Then do it slowly while learning
No shame in that
well, it's on sale so can't argue with that tbh, but it depends what you want to do with it
what AI y'all using? I'm curious
Yeah?...
I guess thanks mate
Gave +1 Rep to @bold rover (current: #382 - 23)
Claude
... 16gb for that much is on sale .. smh
Which model can we run on that type of gpu?
hmmm
Locally
a lot of models
If you are building a cheap computer .. and you aren't playing day 1 AAA games then get something lighter, and save that money for a new gpu later
cybersec and val , warzone and counter strike thats it for the most
but not many that are worth running
Holy wild Chickenman
it me
I see, the max I could run was 8B models
8B dense yeah
it you!
you can probably get ~30B sparse/MoE into 16GB with limited context and/or KV offload
get the 5090 π jk
oh also aftereffects and blender
True
i'm not sure it's worth it though
Lol
models in that class are... good at specific tasks only
parakeet or whisper or similar would be a good example
but general LLMs? not so much
how hard is 3d modeling?
I see
You can run a 13B model on 16gb at what 1bp ?
@wet eagle Do you mean the programs? What kind of program are you using
Nothing is hard, if you put you mind into it
almost all of emm are on sale so i gota decide on one
When deciding, you are taking your cpu into consideration right?
yes
BUy a cryptominers old one. then retrofit the cooling and clean it up?
I'm sorry I have no idea what you've just said π’
and also 16gb ddr5 enough ? cuz the cpu is am5
enough for what π
for all the stuff i told
He always asks the right qns lol
kind of a wide range of use cases tbh
16 gigabytes of ram can easily run a 13b parameter model with 1 byte per parameter resolution. not the best but better than say the q4 q8 models
@wet eagle
an MoE or other sparse model at Q4 will surely out perform a dense 13B at Q1
Verify to send gifs
Okayyy thx!!!
Gave +1 Rep to @bold rover (current: #368 - 24)
now lemme go find a case
Yeah, but how much does a 40gb vram card cost
not as much as you might think tbh
Ahh, but gotta say, running our own llm is kinda fun, I like it
you can get very large cards for relatively cheap if you know where to look
but that's kinda not the move anymore
2nd safe?
unless you have a specific small dense model to run
No you need more than 16gb of ram for AE and blender to function properly
Not very good results. i bvet most of those people are cranky about the fact it only does 16gb per model
chinese used market works wonders man
Trust me get at LEAST 32 gb
dolphin-mistral 7b is great for smaller cards
Lol, yaa
it creates proper exploit for bb

been running AE with 16 gigs of ram, AE is shit in all cases 
How's qwen
imo, seems like a waste to try to build out VRAM for home inference
the scaling math doesnt work
Yeah but timeline scrubbing with 32 gb already is dogahit I canf imagine how much worse it gets with 16gb
unified or just CPU inference is far more cost effective for the scaling
Not even Qwen would call me a pedo and act lke nothing
fuh ill have to go for a intel cpu cuz i aint got money for 32gb ddr5
you don't want to imagine that 
And doing anything in blender with 16gb will nuke ur pc
I paid $480 or so for my A2 16GB .. and it works great for qwen 3? witrh reasonalble context length and then i also have another i load onto it nllb for hardcoded translations
Really just save up dude is my best recommendation dont half ass the build
Lol, I called you a pedologist
Quen is great, local Kimi is good also,
For every day builds I would say Gemini-CLI you get a TON of tokens per day, up to 10m
If your using blender to do 3d graphic modeling. get 32 gb min. shot for64
lemme see ddr5 price real quick
Exactly
16gb in 2026 with something like blender or AE would be hell
Need to get MINIMUM 32
I use Kimi -cli. do not say not o much, Ollama runs dolphin 7b like a charm

Yo, can you check my site and rate it, I need your 8 years experience
production capacity buy out
What can u not get a job?
tbh it aint that bad
Driven by ai
Chip plants all sold out, waiting lists making new stuff no old stuff being mfr'd. Since no new stuff availalbe, old stuff is now premium collectors crap
3090 24gb is what you should look for, dual if possible runs 32b models with ease
Aww cute
3090?
well, started by AI and held up by panic buying lol
@narrow yew I imagine that would be even better for training them
Ofcourse it's not bad, its not coming from your pocket
Is DDR4 good nowadays?
you obviously have no idea what you talk about
I do why would I run a 30 series graphics card in 2026 even if it was a 3090
no im fitting it with in the budget
why wouldn't it be
Cool, 24 is more than enough, but it's your choice
3090 is one of the most cost effective ways to get high RAM on a card with recent gen tensor cores
is there a lot of difference between ddr4 & ddr5?
Dont you need something like 40+ just to run deepseek in high quant
i also saved up like 200 gbp in my piggybank
bandwidth mostly
lol you need a lot more than that
Dont care get at least a 40s series card
oh okayt
@wet eagle Power, consumptions and speed
why?
Okayy π
24gb vram is the most common sweespot for running larget quant LLMs. the 3090ti and 4090 is performing great
if you can get dual 3090 24gb, get it instead of one 5090
you don't even need much in terms of performance out of the core
Because I'm not running an old ass card
for LLMs,
VRAM bandwidth is the big limit
Awesome, save some money or include peripherals in the budget
so i can cover the ram up with tht
lol
he has no clue, just big words
π³οΈβπ
telling me to get a job, the irony
Lol
guys I have a question, whats wrong about arch users? π€
flexig drugs
nah my grandma gave me 150 to buy a printer or smth last yr but i ended up spending 50 bucks on esp32 board and bw16 board so now i have 80 im gonna use that for kb and mouse
Ok, so what comes under peripherals, you know right
You got a monitor?
if you can swing it, A100s are going for decent prices in used markets still
Gonna need those cat ear headphones
that goes with the main budget
im a guy and i also prefer iems
"Guys"
Cool
where do y'all buy your gaming stuff? at Corsair?
Gaming stuff?
yes
who has time for that
Think he means like gaming lube
i get my stuff from wooting or attkshark vxe or those kinda brands
Adults are talking @marble lava
Well dont drop the soap
@marble lava Hmmm.
Gaming lube .. For those new rectaltronics human interface devices?
Show me a 10 ball right now
frfr
What is gaming stuff?
Disgusting
π±
Like hardware, headphones, chairs...
Amazon.
Not gaming lube..
Go take your drug money and flex on cars and other shit you do
Hi
You buy chairs for gaming in? do you swap it to do computer work/office owrk?
Kaaamiii
No, not personally
That was one of the worst flexes here in a long time, flexing money and pipes, as anyone would be impressed.
Ive got a 25 or 30 yr old aeron C series .. the og caddilac chair
chairs ? u wanna see what i sit on
Fair enough!!
I dont have drug money, all my money comes from legitimate sources of income
Fr, dumass, thinks he made money, now he's rich, tell him to buy a house or take care of a family
I promise
lmao
idk
Feds are listening
Still ain't seen 10 bands from u
We won't snitch
All i see is blocked message then your reply .. thats funny enough
Wasn't discord already spying on group chats?
Cause I'm better than you
We do not need to flex 10 bands that is nothing
50+ years old btw
Won't need to, you have palanwhatever listening to all your interactions already
We own apartments and houses
At what
At everything
Alright then show me 10 bands
why are you guys arguing
same guy who was defending drugs btw π«©
Not what I said but ok
drug guy is upset because nobody wants to flex
realistically you said it
Mr 60th percentile in iq over here
that was your point
It wssnt
But ok
The conversation was more around mortality than drugs if you remember
i can flex that I'm healthy:))
Bloodwork
same uncle 
what does that mean?
Show the bloodwork
don't try to understand him you'll get a headache
It is a thing americans do to know they are "healthy" a lab checks your blood.
dont listen to stupid
okayy...
have they given out the valentines prizes? I haven't received a voucher for the cert
what else could trigger him
me neither
trydateme
lowkey
he was talking about dating sum woman and shi
@narrow yew Not hardy .. doy ou know how much a full panel of non required not covered by medical insurance, or "denied, no preauthorization" tests costs?
he would not understand it
Bro cant even recall a convo from less than a week ago
I get my bloodwork done every 6 months
In US, prob alot
Might want to get that looked at
nah I'm joking π
in Sweden, 25$
I hope you're healthy!!
Less than 100$ I can get everything you want and more off of a private company right now
I am, it's to make sure that my hormones levels are correct
@narrow yew do you like western movies
And that is good
I dont need to go through a doctor working for your government to get bloods I do it when I feel like it
okayy, I hope they are indeed correct!
Ofc I am old enought to have seen them
my bloodworks are free π
I'm not old enough but I love them anyway
just watched one
Meh, i'd just uct myself, is the blood red? Good. Is it flowing profusely, great. Did it stop? Yes, whats hte problem
is it true that America's healthcare is like hella expensive? π€
I'm assuming they test your testosterone
If u have shitty healthcare yes
If u get a good job it's not much
both estrogen and testosterone
damn i left for like 10 seconds and now we are doing blood testing
Offvhand do u know what testing methodology they used for your total test
@wet eagle I pay $4k per yr in healthcare premiums just for hte PRIVILEGE of paying 14k of "covered health costs" out of pocket every year before a 20% codeductible kicks in and THEN it caps at 1M of total treatment over my life
idk, like 8 vials of blood at least
you need to move my friend
No I'm saying the analytical chemistry technique
There are multiple ways to figure out what your total is some are more accurate than others
idk
Im sorry, is that good or bad? π
in my 17 years of life, I've got my blood tested literally 2 times what are y'all talking about
Hi. Can anyone teach me how to hack HTTPS sites?
I've done minor elective surgery on my wife lol .. its cheaper than the hospital
it's the hospital, so I guess the best
no π
If you look at your total test it probably says total (ECLIA) you dont want to use this testing methodology as its notoriously inaccurate
Hey guys i have question which AI agent chat is the best for learn on THM? I use copilot for simply task, quizes and commands, tactis etc. Are there any better?
Thank you, I really appreciate you, dude.
Gave +1 Rep to @polar spoke (current: #130 - 79)
that's not the place to ask for this
I don't know, I use grok tbh..
The same thing also applies to your estradiol you usually to pay more depending on your insurance but the ideal testing methodology for total testing LC/MS-MS and for estradiol its equilibrium dialysis
Got it
I'd recommend forking out the extra like 70 bucks total if u test those markers againv
ladies and gentleman! I present you! the first thm ive finished in 5 years!
I don't pay for my tests
Hiii
Yeah but that's the point I'm making the FDA testing methodology tends to be the cheaper 1 which is the less accurate one
@dark wolf fuck u laughing at
Congrats man!!
Time to destroy your mac
I'd bet 100$ they use the cheaper analytical chemistry techniques which is going to give u a less than accurate result
its not a maccccc
Sorry my English is weak and I can't read well
mcnuggie
I know when i see one
As a Swede, If I break my leg, ambulance gets me there, and for somewhat reason I have to stay 1-2 weeks.
This costs me 10$ per day in hospital in "care price". and ambulance it would be maybe 250$ all included.
is macOS good?
food x3 medicine the lots
Nah it's fine, I mean this isn't a server to ask for "teach me to hack" or something potentially illegal
and I do not need a special super expensive health plan
Go ahead and try to get bloodwork done
good point...
I like minimal..
any wallpaper suggestions?
4 months to get a shitty CMP and CBC pannel
Here in the US, say hello to $100,000 in debt!
all my homies use hmontanaOS
I'll have to see, got 2gb of just wallpaper
Mashallah
I could go on drop-in tomorrow morning and pay 25$ patient's fee
for blood work
no problem at all
real
Tragic
put on some tomboy stuff
And guess what ur forced to be at the discression of your doctor as far as what markers that u can get and what testing methodology u use
I get to pick mine
2 completely diffrent social systems, but that is us, a whole lot higher tax but schools, hostpital is free. medicine have a cap and after that medicine is free.
nah for that imma need the programming socks, i dont have that yet
yet
Well, I got you.
okay goodnight
Yo guys
:0
Hii
No
Technically no but so many people break the rules here theres a good chance no one cares
We do not talk politics or things related to that
We are an infosec server, read pinned message's
I got an idea
yeah! We just talk about computer stuff!
Does anyone imagine that I have installed Kali Linux on the mobile π€£π€£
I suppose
What offline gadgets/things you recommend do to then in case of internet loss?
Ya net hunter
a tamagotchi
Wth is that?
pew pews and my card that is not connected π
:))
Iβm fr
oh poor little soul
What can you do
it is a friend
Like with Raspberry Pi
in your pocket
π
yes, and it's very stressful.
Bellllaaaaaaa
they use LCβMS and immunoassays for my hormone panels
let's just hope everyone is fine :))
But what do they used for total test because lc ms and immunoassay are different for total test
It will either say LC-MS/MS for total or ELCIA
Fr I donβt wanna die before doing every man dream π
U want it to say LC-MS/MS
ΩWho wants good deeds | Ω Ω ΩΨ±ΩΨ― ΨΨ³ΩΨ§Ψͺ
well guys, I doubt anyone cares but I'm going to sleep, stay safe and see y'all tomorrow, see ya!!
it does say LC-MS/MS cause that's what my hospital does
You are fortunate then
it's standard here
I haven't gotten estrogen results yet, cause I have only been on estrogen for 14 days
Are you taking oral estrodi ol

Alright dude
Also "estrogen" isnt really a marker ur gonna check all that really matters is your E2
are you still on about that
brother what are you doing
well I still need to get a proper amount of estrone and estriol, so sure estradiol is what I intake
also progesterone levels needs to be correct
Yes but heres what u need to consider typically the medication they give is a singular estrogen which will shut down your endogenous levels of sex hormones ur going to have crushed estriol and estrone as a result
I dont really see the point in this
Unless ur a biological male progesterone introduction doesnt make much sense
Female*
dude, it does
No it doesnt
wtf is this conversation
Here is why
The reason why a synthetic progestin is used in combined oral contraception in women isnt to replicate their progesterone production it's to stop them from ovulating
what are yall arguing abt
Progesterone is the main sex hormone responsible for regulation ovulation in women
how do u kn so much abt drugs and chemicals
Was into professional bodybuilding
Had to learn about steroids sex hormones and physiology
Unless ur endocrinologist is aware of some pathway that progesterone fulfils that I'm not aware of I dont see why u would add a progestin unless u have a uterus
It doesnt make sense
ditching UI automation was the right, move this angle will work
/report user XX CHROMOSOME CHECKER I don't know i have him blocked
oops, had a space in there
I think most are doing that
Very funny buddy ur 50 btw
Such and odd fella
aint aging normal ?
Yes and acting that way at 50 isnt
you would have no clue
Wtf are yall on about in here
it does, it helps libido, mood changes, fullness of breasts, sleep, and overall helps boost the changes to your body under the influence of estrogen, multiple researches has been done on this, maybe you should focus on HRT related research instead of bodybuilding related research.
Progesterone is typically introduced around month 7 to year 3 of taking estrogen, to help boost the changes to your body.
I am literally in a research project as a subject about how progesterone helps in HRT related medical procedures
freewill is a thing just letting ya kn
ok report worked
@chilly veldt 1 thing I would say in taking a progestin is that there is a lot of reported deviancy in sexual desire it happens a lot with people who take steroids that are progestagenic in nature so I'd be cautious adding that thinking its useful I'm the context of hormone therapy
90% of that is regulated by E2
Well @marble lava is a fool imo
I did that too,
u sound like you could devlop a zombie virus or smth
U would need to point to some metabolic pathway where progesterone is what is responsible outside of ovulation
Very much so
Ur not going to find anything besides that and some neurostroid production
Neurosteroid*
Why are you even here lol
buddy this aint a biology server
I think he's here just to troll and flex drug money
It has very little to do with infosec
It's funny ur tagging only 1 individual in the conversation
Ik this is off topic but I learned so much in Karmanyaβs bot π
Lol flexing drug money in 2026
He got a 24 hour mute but still didn't get the message
@kaizen
I wish karmanyas bot could come here
Also idk how what I'm doing is trolling when I'm literally just explaining an oversight I think exists that would benefit @chilly veldt
dude, 90% of that is broken because of E2, estrogen is providing mood changes, killing libido, ruining your sleep, it's been well documented, in HRT related projects, where as progesterone has been tested and documented that it helps regulate it.
Go talk to trans girls, it's literally what 95% of them are saying, cause WE ARE GOING THROUGH IT, so having a straight man come and say shit like that, is just, dumb
Yessss same I agree - u see that karmanya π₯Ήππ
well maby the one person im tagging is the only person who dosnt make sense here
I had a little nap, I was sleeping for like 50 minutes lollll
Ur acting as if me being straight has anything to do with me understanding pharmacodynamics as respectfully as possible I've studied this longer than u
Phone in hand EVERYRHING
You been to school?
I'm not trying to berate you but give a lens that perhaps u haven't considered so your PCP likely hasnt delved into the topic as much as they should we have the same issue in the states
mansplaining
I've seen HRT clinics prescribe men 250 mgs of test a week it's insane how dumb some of these doctors are
Man's literally arguing over stupid shit
Cause he's stupid
how long have you studied it?
Since 2019
Agreed
He have reddit I assume
It isnt like I dont know what I'm talking about dude
It is the wrong forum for your drug talk
I think we should get Karmanyas bot - Kaizen to start arguing against XX chromosome checker, he wouldnβt last a second
I am good and it's going good
Tf is the problem this time here?
Which path you doing
Every time I look here, someone is arguing
I understand why ur adding in progesterone by all means do what u want the oversight I think ur making is u see the combined oral contraception given to women and think u should replicate that but the thing you miss is they ovulate and the progesterone is mainly to stop that
This orange name guy xx
@dark wolf Imagine how fast he need to type to get all that down
Or like saying u care about your other estrogens like estrone I can tell I unless u have a synthetic version of it which I dont think u would use it's going to be crushed
I'm finding myself going to owlsec more and more. at least I know they are arguing lol
I'm almost done with cyber security 101
i blocked him the day he joined and have resisted urges to reveal blocked messages
Aww, that's cool, so which side gonna take
Owlsec is a great place
And probably about hacking lol - btw didn't sm1 breach owlecs's bot that is started spitting out some mess recently?
Red
Maybe, I did't notice
I've studied it since 2017 where I started trying to get into going through HRT, I've studied DIY, I know how to build it yourself, I have read pages of pages on what HRT does to you and how to do it properly, I have done research into adding progesterone, I have talked with trans people who are biochemists for this exact reason.
I have literally done research on how to get estrogen based on food cause meds weren't available, so sure, let's say you know more about the topic I am going through to live the life of who I am, than me
Red
-# your wasting your time with this asshole honestly sis, but have fun i guess
Ok let me ask a question then what is the main enzyme responsible for converting androgens to estrogens
Aromatase
Next
Qn
In what tissue is this primarily expressed
i have smth better to argue abt . if you walk through a male ghost does that mean u had gay sex
No
Its expressed primarily in adipose tissue
Now go sleep
thats my letter
No one cares
Clearly u do
Lol
U felt the need to google my question
U didnt
δΈθ‘ιι
Bro, chill out and let people live - every time I see you here you're arguing with someone about some bullshit
K for "K*S"
Because u wouldn't have said ovaries if u did
It was a calculated error
Too low for your iq
Urbcoming in at the end of a completely separate convo dont brow beat me when u have 0 context in what I said earlier
For sure dude
@gusty inlet
