I mean generally DOT will inspect a bridge every two years or so
I would assume every time it gets hit, it has to go through an inspection
that big orange beam in front isn't attached to the bridge, it's just there as a sacrificial thing
Oh we might be thinking of two different bridges then
I've seen a few different websites devoted to these low bridges, so possibly
There's another similar height bridge that is made of steel
And it just has the flashers and the chains
Oh wow the 11'8 bridge is no longer 11'8"
They raised it to 12'4"
slightly taller. Still making stupidity painful (but amusing for the rest of us)
I have a playlist of hacking music, which is a mix of anti-authority songs, dad metal, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. I listen to a lot of different stuff though
In November 2019, the railroad finally raised the Can Opener Bridge another 8 inches, from 11' 8" to a total of 12 feet 4 inches, but that was still not enough, as trucks are still hitting the bridge and still getting their containers damaged or torn open.
The council did setup lots of warnings signs to truck drivers, telling them they are over...
Railroad didn't raise it so people would stop hitting it.... They raised it to make it level with another crossing so the trains did not have to slow down 
lol. Well the bridge itself is fine, they have the can opener part ahead of the bridge
so what do they care if people keep hitting that
wouldn't surprise me if they have some kind of pool going for how many hits per week/month or something
I think the average is 1 a month
they should rename it to The Barber. Now it just takes a little off the top. It used to actually rip trucks apart
It should turn to a red light if the truck is too tall
I think they have flashing lights and alarms and stuff, but people I guess don't see it
I was going to suggest alarms too as I didn't hear anything
I don't remember, I think the site has more details. I haven't rread it in forever
or maybe I'm mixing it up with another bridge. There are a few I've seen
Yeah there's one near me that you can barely fit an F250 super duty through
Old ass railroad Bridge and its sketch af
I have a truck, and I hate parking garages.
I don't think anyone likes parking garages
fair point
We were supposed to get a parking garage at uni but then the administration decided to build another civvy dorm and not make more parking
Yeah it's an absolute cluster to park in the winter
yeah, my uni did that way back when. Parking permits were like $250 for a "can park anywhere" one year, and then like 2 years later it was like $350 PER LOT.
But the nice thing is that everyone helps each other and everyone has a shovel
shovel? Hell I got 4wd and a winch
Need to shovel the wall of snow they plow in front of your car and it's too narrow to winch
as evidenced by the uhaul- nothing is too narrow 😉
Anybody know the name of that group of veterans who would run races in gas masks for charity?
The Masked Athlete Team?
I think thats their "pro" team. Operation Enduring Warrior is the org
maybe that's what it is. Thanks
That's cool
Team X-T.R.E.M.E was the one I was thinking of, I think. Similar focus though.
heard about something similar, but I tihnk you're talking about something else
I was seeing something about a guy doing it. Got a link?
Dude that was supposed to run it got injured, think his name was Sean Matson
https://taskandpurpose.com/culture/bomb-suit-mile-world-record-kaitlyn-hernandez/?amp=1
Damn. She's a badass. That suit weighs almost as much as she does.
I think I was hearing about the other guy mentioned in that article- Sean Matson. But holy cr*p, somebody did a half marathon in that thing. 👀

Oof, just had the first surprise menu in a restaurant for ages.
Like Chefs choice?
Fresh pea soup with sourdough spelt bread as kitchen's greeting. Asparagus with hollandaise as the starter. salmon prepared at 40 degrees C. mushrooms baked in filo dough as the main course. cloudberry long drink sherbet as another greeting from the kitchen. cowberry (?) ice cream with almond tart as the dessert.
disappointed with y'all in lack of food pics
Well I do have photos of all the courses, if you want to have them 😄
I'm just saying in general, I come here and see no food pics
There you go
Fancy
It's the quiet channel, not the food channel
Although it seems we could use a food channel, given the general nature of this one 🤷♂️
And it was just a hotel restaurant 🤷♂️
Classy
Hotels can have some pretty high end restaurants
Yeah, and this chain has pretty fine ones. Not quite high end, but worth the effort.
did you try the pine cones? 
NGL I thought it was pou pourri
guys how can i secure my phone number
because I inserted my phone number into a trading website and I found out that they are a bunch of scammer
I told them to deactivate my account
but they didnt want , can you please help me
Call your phone company?
I added my personal info
What kind of info? Anything they can open a line of credit with? If in the US, I know you can put a credit freeze through the credit bureaus
you can't really do much once you give your data out to bad actors, they aren't likely to follow laws and just delete it for you 😦
I didnt add any credit card info or payment info , i added my name , phone number , email and the country i live in
what could possibly happen?
spam emails and phone calls i guess
Yeah, That could lead to identity fraud, although OSINT could probably find those things about most people via searching LinkedIn and other socials. I wouldn't worry too much, but keep your eyes peeled for future scams
Honestly it depends. I doubt the people that connected to the scam are Nation State actors so they likely have limited budget and less advanced tools
Id just be careful from this point forward and not give out any info in the future
We've had lots of "Windows support" scams lately. This week apparently my Windows computer had been sending bad data somewhere. For some reason they weren't able to name a single origin address. I was expecting them to say 127.0.0.1 or something else.
A friend had had a nice conversation with one of the scam callers, and asked them why the caller didn't try to get a proper job in IT, as they sounded smart.

hi
hello
Terrible photo but sous vide salt and pepper steak seared for a minute and a half with a light Caesar salad
that steak looks hot
its buttery melt in your mouth
I like how people share their meals in this channel
lmao ++
Looks yummy!
I made a chili, there's not much left
That looks good
It was
Stuff freezes well and can double as a pasta sauce in a pinch :)
Tbf the only thing that separates my chili from my pasta sauce is the beans...
Skyline chili in Cincinnati puts chili on pasta I think
I've seen places in Québec put chili on poutines.
That sounds good
I like chili, I make it a lot when we go camping, usually serve on top of baked potatoes
Anyone heard or used Society6 to purchase goods?
it's easy to make, just shove everything in a pot 🙂
went to go make a cacio e pepe style sauce and forgot to save the pasta water
Not as good looking as Mooses, but it is about half way through the potato and steak
But works great on a baked potato
And eggs
Probably the best egg cheese. Not too oily or too over powering but not bland either
true that
should caveat that with best egg cheese that doesnt cost an arm and a leg per 100g
I got some cheese here once and it was pretty expensive: https://goo.gl/maps/NzqCFwQCqEwUHSMu7
well worth it
Wtf I just paid tax to a county im not even in purchasing a coffee
like, VAT?
I just got an email that my bike is ready for delivery. A week after its original shipping estimate, two weeks since they sent the first mail saying it's delayed by a month. I wonder if I ordered a software project, not a bike.
and the delivery data option is a week away
They said earlier it will be shipped in land transport, and it might take two weeks. They're probably driving it here from Germany, there's no other way it could take that long 
they couldn't fit the box in the little car they had so they had to find a truck
That's plausible.
No we don't have VAT in the US
Oregon does IIRC
I bought a drink in one county and I got taxed by the county I live in
On top of the state tax
I don't understand how I can be taxed on a purchase for a county im not even in. Specifically for food
county. Not country.
in the USA, counties are smaller than states- say an hour drive away, or less
I guess we have similar things but they don't have their own taxes or anything thankfully, Australa just has one tax system for goods and services at a flat 10% rate and you won't have to pay that again after purchase initially lol
yeah, it's rare in the US for different counties to have drastically different tax structures- generally those fall under state taxes (with some exceptions).
its probably because laws changed, probably due to amazon.... remember when amazon was tax free? and states were like 'nah I don't think so'
Might be a DC thing as well. They're special.
Oh DC, what a place
Not DC but I went to Dunkies this morning and actually got a receipt this morning. There was a $0.30 tax on top of the state tax from the county I live in, not the county I purchased the beverage in
Which doesn't make sense to me because I didn't make the purchase in the county I live in
That’s odd. We’ll go to Portland to make big purchases since they don’t have sales tax like our county does. Think card companies are starting to use the zip code of your cards on file to properly use taxes? Seems like that wouldn’t/couldn’t work though. Especially if they never went out notifications or anything. Not to mention, how would that be feasible with so many Canadians coming down for purchases as well?
y'all really know how to cook wow
Hello everyone, has anyone bought and completed TCM's Practical Ethical Hacking course?
Ok?
?
Question to the group. What tools to use when investigating if a company had a data breach? I know how to investigate the emails. But is there a site that may give info about the company breach period? Taking all these classes. When company A is looking to purchase a coompany B (acquistion) they would Recon the external edge (perimeter) before connecting. Yes, I understand the internal investigation. I was just wondering is there some bread crumbs (external sites) that may inform you the company been breached before or they have been breached and don't know it.
If it’s a known breach there are plenty of sites out there
if it’s an unknown breach then you would have to dig further down into the hacker forums and really perform some CTI to find it
Hello everyone, for you which is the best free antivirus ?
yeah I like windows defender as it's free and relatively unobtrusive
well, free with windows.
Applocker is very useful too if you configure it right (preventing program execution from a Downloads/Temp folder is a quick win)
Switch to linux
linux has virus' too
And so do Macs
Speaking of viruses and malware
A new batch of Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities have dropped apparently
Don't most of those require root access anyway? If they can get that far, the system is already maximally compromised
It actually is "obtrusive" as hell. It reads every binary you execute and sends back signatures and strings that are in it back to Microsoft for analysis.
It's just that they made it sneaky af and well integrated within windows
you telling me an AV reads my stuff
- but yeah I get a lot of warnigns when it reads my obsidian notes and it asks if i want to submit them to M$
Does it actually warn you ? Do you get a pop up ? I'd like to see this lol
And you got that just because you're typing stuff ??
what, no, i get that because I have malicious content in a markdown file
if I move it to a location I don't have an exclsion for the AV (lol) it finds out and tells me
which is how most AV's work.
Ehhhhhh not exactly
It ships off files if you give it explicit permissions to but it will verify with you and ask permission it is also one of the easier features to completely cut off
Microsoft definitely can’t just start yeeting around files do you know how many issues that would cause and laws that would break
"...all of them, I guess" - Terminator 2
Didn't say it deletes files automatically. I said it analyzes them and that's called Real-time protection which is on by default
Okay then.
But we're talking Microsoft here, even if you have telemetry set to the minimum they do grab some data

Something tells me this was not a statistically significant sample size. 🤔
Statistics? More like made up numbers!
I sense a fellow member of the "I hate statistics" club
I kinda liked statistics, I know enough to be dangerous and recognise the abuse of statistics.
I'm in about the same boat
Cloud protection is an opt-out though

Welp my local postman didnt know what informed delivery was
Hi y'all, I just finished the pentest+ path on THM (mostly from doing other paths with the same rooms). Is the cert worth it? I got that sweet 10% discount
it is a good entry-level cert and gaining recognition
Good to know, thank you @steel plover.
Gave +1 Rep to @steel plover
all you do is sign up on the website for it
I asked if he knew how accurate Informed Delivery was and he responded with "whats that"
probably because its not something they tell them
Yeah I know I was trying to see how long their delay was
I really like it
I do too
because now I know that my refund was sent and isnt in my hand
IRS say they mailed it on the 28th and informed notified me on the 1st
you would think they would put tracking numbers on these like packages
but that makes too much sense and benefits the end user too much
informed delivery has saved my ass with some DMV stuff
Literally the first google review for my local post office was "They lost my check and didnt help me"
and all the features USPS gives you if you just sign up on their website makes it worth it
I havent gotten any mail yet this week and Informed Delivery says I should have received 4 pieces
wait I have a package coming???
From a correctional facility? wth
Huh, informed delivery is weird
hey @burnt night hey everyone
👀
i have a question but afraid to ask due to rules
its not that bad
but i thought to ask first
i cached a scammer 2 months ago scamming people and i warned him to stop and reported a local police department in his country and send them the evidence and the ip
but they did nothing and hes continuing to send spam messages and using a site for adware
.. my question is
is there anyway to stop him without hacking him ?!
Report him to the services he's using, but realistically, no
That's the way of the internet, unfortunately. People are invulnerable -- until you take it into real life
If the local police aren't going to do anything then no one really can
vigilantism is generally a bad idea, and there is a reason it is not legal. I think there are services to report suspicious IP's, but I don't know how effective they are
Not very. You can change your IP as easily as restarting the router
tried tried and no one did anything
That's all you can do legally, unfortunately
i thought i could do more
Just report 'em everywhere you can find
thanks @quaint basin @azure trench

Thus is life. There will always be scammers. There was a guy in the 1920's New York who scammed people by telling them that the Brooklyn Bridge was for sale.
😂 😂 😂
NYPD found people setting up tolls on the bridge regularly
Word on the street is that I own the Brooklyn Bridge
Peep the new name Meeses Bridge coming soon

What's up dude how is ur day going
It's 3:20am and work is kinda busy so not too bad I guess
question for my friends across the pond, is the general public for or against university education? I'm not sure what the cost is over there or even if you have scholarships, just curious on your thoughts compared to the American education system.
are you referring to a specific pond? (aussie here)
probably the atlantic?
Any pond honestly. the more opinions the merrier lol
In Britain it's still a pretty big thing. Scotland has free higher education, England is about £10,000 a year, I believe, although that's paid back very slowly and isn't really a hindrance, so I'm told.
Sounds like Scotland's got it together lol
This is similar to our community and state colleges
England comparison specifically
We do have a growing number of apprenticeship programmes, but uni is still seen as the way to go, generally speaking 🤷♂️
Most people still go if they are academically inclined
so it's kind of natural to go to uni right after high school? most people done with uni and school in their early 20's? id assume if it's free you might have a higher drop out rate before graduation, no?
Many people either take a gap year or go straight after school, yeah.
Not sure about the dropout rate, but I would wager it's not that high for most courses. We essentially get the courses paid for by SAAS (Student awards agency), so if you drop out before the end of the year then you often need to pay back that year's tuition.
That's kind of an incentive not to 😆
That's actually really cool! Thanks for the input, Muiri!
Australia has a government system that pays for uni and you pay it back when you are employed and earning over a certain threshold. I'm not actually sure what percentage of people finishing high-school go into univerisity however I think it's around 50%. There are scholarships and other options too
Okay so similar to Scotland it seems. Maybe i should move lmao. Australia is basically done with covid too, right? or is it only a specific states at the moment?
We've had it pretty good, there are still occasional people popping up with it from overseas but day to day life is somewhat back to a 'new' normal I guess
Difference with Scotland is we don't need to pay it back
Right,unless you drop out
Aye, and even then it's not guaranteed
even then, it sounds like only for that year
More a: "let's sit down and discuss it"
Aye, even then only for the one year (or part of it)
Well damn y'all, thanks for the input! Appreciate it. Anybody else that wants to chime in with your thoughts please do so.
seems more like a discouragement from dropping out
If you're just looking for free school both Switzerland and Germany offer free education to anyone
free university degrees? for non citizens?
I know germany also allows you to get a work visas immediately post grad
yep. Germany was rolling it out last time i was there but I never followed up. Swiss was free or nearly free when I was looking at universities to go to
interesting
Its a process but its there if you really want it
wouldn't you have to speak german tho?
nope classes are in english
how hard can that be
or rather, wouldn't it benefit you? lol
heaps of people speak german
would it be a large plus? absolutely
German is also the easiest language to learn coming from english
Wait, is that true in australia? now I don't know if you're pulling my leg or not haha
I honestly did not know that and though spanish would be
well, the Germans that come here speak it, but I more meant most Germans can speak it so its obviously not impossible to learn 😛
gotcha gotcha haha
A lot of the words are incredibly similar as english is a germanic language
That's true, I was learning French via Duolingo a while ago, and then tried German. German was easy comparatively
I can read and write, speaking is a little hard, and listening is the hardest
Did I hear Duolingo?

You haven't been keeping your streaks up!
I was trying to learn dutch on duolingo but have only kept up doing random japanese lessons instead
Wanna bet!
Duolingo has now framed you for murder!
Shakshuka. Onion, sundried tomato, pickled piquillo peppers, fresh bell pepper, fresh mini san marzano tomatoes, feta, coriander
I haven't done any today eeeee
wow killing it
Genuinely the best tomato sauce I've ever made
You made it! hell yea man! was it as great as it looks?
what are you learning on there Jabba? all of it?
Well I'm gonna eat the whole pan myself if that's a clue
Jabba,what language are you learning? And what's your native?
My native iss gibberish and I'm learning German
Oh, wie lange?
I added Varg, that's about it
thats enough Australians for anyone
Ehh, on and off for a year
you can add people on duolingo? TIL
I don't have the motivation to do mmuch on Duolingo because I'm so busy busy
Do Australians and Scottish curse as much as i'm lead to believe from american movies?
yeah I don't think I'm putting enough time into it to make solid progress
it's an nice app, I also don't pay for the premium so the adds are annoying.
I don't mind the ads, it just doesn't teach you as well as I'd like
Learning through repetition is boring
I used that to learn Lithuanian
It was good at the start but wasn't very enticing to keep coming back
yeah I actually translated a childrens book myself to learn and that was good, I would like to speak with native speakers to learn it a bit better too but for now duo will have to do
One sec 😄
Lmao
Or would that be Buffett overflow
Did I hear Duolingo??
Too slow pfffffft
hahaha yes, NASDAQ sucks

Serious answer: Berkshire's BRK.A share price is too high for NASDAQ, causing an integer overflow https://t.co/cvmsIlicLX
Famously this is because BRK.A is a "status symbol" giving access to the yearly shareholder meeting, and Warren doesn't want to stock split it.

This weekend I will be clicking refresh on my browser, and be happy about possibly getting a vaccine in a few weeks
don't click refresh, it's a trap
You need to do that, it's for delivery tracking. Otherwise the parcel might never reach me.

Exactly. And finally.
Pentesters, do you like your career? i'm aspiring to work in the area, i'm focusing on getting the basics and certs. Should i be doing something more?
This is the #cooking channel, maybe ask in #cyber-and-careers ?
cooking?
Homemade
?
cooked tomato brusketa and scatered sushi today
no photos, sorry
i bought to much vegetables and tofu, any recipes are welcome! (no spicy pls)
realises she can google
this looks yummy - https://rainbowplantlife.com/vegan-pumpkin-curry-with-tofu/
I imagine you could sub the pumpkin with potato or sweet potato fairly easily
or just not use it
Not necessarily pepper though
i have some ginger
Fresh?
Not as interesting
fresh things usually die in my fridge
You can make a basic lacquer with soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic and ginger
Or sugar if vegan
thanks
Should make a decent stir-fry
there is vegan soy sauce too!
does it work like a marinade or...? first time seeing the word lacquer
2 parts honey/sugar, 2 parts rice vinegar, balsamic works in a pinch, 4 parts soy sauce, 5 parts water
oh honey, lol
Add your protein, and let reduce until sticky
Add ginger, garlic and black pepper to whatever amounts you like
Bit of sesame oil at the end if you have any
Isnt soy sauce vegan already?
I like to sear my protein with some onion, and then deglaze with a bit of white wine
If you have something like fennel seeds or anis it works very well as well
I remember the first time I tried to cook with wine. Pan was too hot and the wine immediately burned and stuck to the bottom of the pan
also true
some is, some isn't, but i missed the honey on the list
Honey isn't I know
huh, I thought it was just soy, wheat, salt, and water
yeah I figured you knew
Maple syrup works as well, but that may be expensive
which is why you subbed sugar, maple syrup we use sometimes but for something like a curry sugar often works better
you would think that yes, and in essence it should be but food makers love adding lots of random bits of animals to stuff
It's usually fermented as well
Soy sauce? yeah. I watched an hour long documentary on it a couple of months ago lol
I'm totally not vegan though
same and I wont knock anyone who is either. except the people that try and shame you and say its healthier
I'm totally not coating chicken nuggets in cornflakes to make a poor man's panko
use what you got
we can make a thm recipe book!
It's a southern US trick IIRC
And it works super well
Probably won't work for tofu though
The denser stuff might work, but you'll need to spice it
I hate cooking, but i kinda think this would be a great idea. Could even be sold in the swag store
glad you like it!
there is a THM cooking site
oh?
My pihole says no
what?!
Apparently it's on one of my block lists
That sounds like a phishing link Zojja
The official recipe blog for TryHackMe
sorry I haven't been there in a while, its not updated but we could
Do it. Make a cookbook. Name stuff funny tech/vuln related. Profit.
I would have trouble writing recipes, I just put stuff together and it tastes good
I can do recipes if I try
I am more, put this this and this together, cook and eat
yeah but if I try I can write things down as I go, its painful but
Can we do cocktail recipes too?
add booze, drink
Basically. I'm a big fan of the old school mixed drinks. I've been trying to learn some mixology, but I'm experimental, so sometimes I make something that just takes like crap.
I have had a few recipes come out like that, when I did my first rub it was too heavy on black pepper and had to adjust from there
oh yeah. One time I tried to make an old fashioned with blue flame moonshine, but I put too much simple syrup, so it just tasted like a sugary mess.
For reference, best way to mix shine is with ginger ale. ginger beer would probably be good too.
That's the best mixer for a lot of spirits
Try adding some lime juice too, goes really well
Bundaberg is my ginger beer of choice
Lime is a good idea, my brother just bought some lime juice for margaritas. Maybe I'll try using it with other things
will have to make some one of these days
do you like rum?
Indeed I do. I enjoy Ron Zacapa the best, and I like Bacardi for mixing. Why do you ask?

how long have you been a pentester?
Looking at linkedin, seems like 18 months as a sec analyst and some internships
have you tried Bumbu? it's rather smooth. i also know a good mix drink for it aswell
I appreciate the tip, I will look into it. Sounds delicious. How do you like to mix it?
Bumbu Rum , Mango purée , Lime Juice, Pineapple juice, mint leaf
was it easy for you to find the internships
I found it hard to find any internships in my country for example, because 90% of them required a degree or at least an active student status on their 3rd/4th year...
😦
I mean I wouldn’t know, I was responding to zojja asking how long the article author had worked for.
I’ve never had or bothered with an internship

Oh God, wasn't expecting you to want to hear them

My student's club had a server for which the admins took user suggestions for their usernames - and then created an account with somewhat related username.
for example, asking for something like "shark" got one user "tuna" that stuck for, well, the rest of the time.
There's a few websites that do really good usernames
i'm using the current username for the past ... 6-7-8-10 years? and it was mostly found on a game and used around games and stuff and i just got used to use it everywhere but i realised that since im not playing games anymore i want something that somehow reflects my activity? or its somehow linked to what i am doing right now.
yeah, i'll take that into consideration if my dead brain doesn't think of something in the following days
The return
I have a nice filet mignon in the fridge rn, for later this week
@stuck lodge Let's not DM people asking for their real names.
well, can you tell me the rules? as I told you, Im new here, nicknames are funny, it was just that😋
It's more of a rule of the internet.
Usernames are used to protect people, asking people for their usernames is creepy and scary.
It's kinda creepy to immediately ask the real name of someone you don't know
The rules are in #rules
is living in reading while working in london a reasonable commute?
hmm
tryna find a middleground for me and my friend to get a 2 bed
he works in london, i'll be working in gloucester
A lot of people around Reading/Basingstoke/Farnborough commute to London
Gloucester's a long way lol
but my job is fully remote (with 1 day a month in the office for a catchup)
so i don't need to be tooo close to mine
Ah fair. You drive?
nah, i'd have to get da train
this slowmode sucks
for his job, he is allowed to be a little remote, so maybe 1 or 2 days in office a week
Maybe Woking might be closer?
i'll have a look around there thanks :D
man 2 bed places are so much better priced than 1 beds 😔
Wait till you see three-beds
even directly in london it's so much better value for 2 bed wtf
only have 1 friend atm 😔 everyone else still doing uni stuffs
Yea, cos you gotta share the living room and kitchen and stuff
Yea, you'll notice with broadband and gas IMO
I live in reading and my neighbour is a bank manager in London,
She normally takes the train which is a quick journey
Just out of interest, what would you consider quick? 🙂
Around 20-30 mins
I guess that’s actually quick for a huge city like London.
You're going between two big cities, they're a way apart
Google maps train directions tell me the train ride would be about 40 minutes on its own.
Naah, my search was wrong. 23min on the quickest one from Reading to Paddington, it seems. Then some travel within the city 🙂
Jake #vanlife
I did it at first when I moved to London but train prices are crazy and it put a dent in whatever rent savings I would have made plus it took ages to get home when I’d been on the piss and if a friend wanted to meet up in town on a weekend or whatever it was a hassle. My completely unsolicited advice: bite the bullet with rent (reading/Woking/Guildford aren’t THAT much cheaper as city boys commute that way) and be able to enjoy the city.
Yeah, It's a balancing act
Yup, that's exactly it
When I go to London I either take a direct route from my local station to Paddington (takes longer) or from my local station to reading main station and then to Paddington (takes way quicker)
ah okay thank you for the advice!

I need to transfer a file from Windows shell to my local machine, how can i do that
I can upload file from my machine to windows using certuril or invoke Web request but couldn't find anything to do this other way around
^ scp or smb would be best
No
ah
I can start a smb server on my machine
And i copied a file from my machine to victim using that share
Can i also send a file from Windows over that share?
Python http server?
# Python3 HTTP Server
python3 -m http.server
# Python2 HTTP Server
python -m SimpleHTTPServer
also...is this for a THM box? what are you doing it for?
yes, just start the smb server on your attacking machine, then use copy to stick the file into that share
copy local-windows-file \\attacking-machine\share
Oh right instead of
Copy \ip\file localpath
Ok will try that
Share name is the directory name right?
it's whatever you called the share when you ran the command
Yeah got it
Yeah i was doing tib3rius priv esc and he named the share same as. Directory name so I was confused
On todays episode of Metal and Malware I said screw metal and Im jamming to MF DOOM also ransomware spooooooooky

Hello, can yall do this very short survey for school? https://forms.gle/n3uCy9Uko6cbeBkF9 Its about whether you like classical music or not
Yea I working as well
I went biking. Followed a path to the forest, that turned into a path in a field, the field turned wet, and finally I was walking my bike by ditches next to a railroad track.
That's cool you can get some nature
I practically live in the middle of a forest 😄
Oh ok so you get nature on a regular day to day bases
helloo
so you got your nice new bike then rode it through puddles, smh
Nah, that’s my old bike. The new one is a fancy mountain bike that wouldn’t have issues with puddles. And it still didn’t arrive.
week too many: bike still not here
It’s only been two months since ordering, and two weeks or so since the original delivery estimate
you are very patient
Well I knew it takes time when I ordered an e-MTB
most people I know get mad if their Amazon orders are delayed a day or two
Hah, true. I’ve been hitting refresh for the order tracking page all the time 🙂 but again, other brands had four to six months delivery estimates for their bikes.
guess I'm just more used to the quickness in US deliveries, rarely do they take more than a week once shipped
This one comes from Germany to Finland in land transport. I’ve no idea what that means, hope they still use ships instead of going via Baltics and Russia in a truck 🙂
anyone that knows math halp. 
Come on evan, draw a graph
At first I was like wtf is this math
Then I read it through again and realized it wasn't anything hard
it is very hard
I 100% recommend drawing a diagram
Draw a graph it will be infinitely easier
Definitely draw the graph.

Hii guys any beginners here??
Lets team up
for anyone that’s taken the eJPT - do you think three weeks is enough study time to complete training and the exam for someone that is kind of new to the Cyber Sec field?
I tried out Georgian Khachapuri today, it was a wholesome experience. Cheesy to say. And had everything a growing young man like yours truly needs: Carbs, fat, salt and protein.
yes, despite the million mitigating factors such as your aptitude for learning and familiarity with the material, i'd say 20ish hours a week for 3 weeks will get you just about prepared
I appreciate you @north roost thanks 🙂
Gave +1 Rep to @north roost
no problem, good luck!
didn’t know the PTS was free 😮
Course is, exam (eJPT) is not
I think eJPT not worth it. You should aim for OSCP
I disagree, I feel I can use it to learn some new things and obtain my first cert. OSCP is something I will go for too!
Yeah may be its true. Dont know how much it will cost
The eJPT course is free @brisk loom
and the exam itself is 200 USD
I mean the exam cost
You can do the course without doing the exam
👍👍ok
You get learning out of it, for free.
Yup, i took the course from INE. Com
I'm new to try hack me and its actually pretty good
hey any1 know why this avenger room isnt opening

hello guys! i hope everyone is well.
i wanted to ask if there is a legit way to make money online. i need to pay my tuitions(6k$ a year) but its hard for me due to my country's economic problem(lebanon). So if anyone could tell me or help me, i'll be grateful 🙂
Aquaduct. 😄
This is vague but, anything. Check out sites like Fiverr where people offer freelance services. Figure out something you know you can do and how it would benefit others. If you don’t know of any skills you have, learn them and use to them make some extra $. Job wise, I would suggest looking up some remote proctor jobs etc.
There's also things like streaming on twitch/youtube/patreon. I have some friends who make a decent living doing that, but it takes time to build that. But certainly, if you have a skillset to teach, that'll help, even if it's cooking or home repair or whatever.

I'm also
well damn thats some good slowmode

@fresh jewel Are you new to THM and hacking? 🙂
Ig yes
yeah
Okay, have you read #start-here ?
It gives some introduction to what the server and THM is,
Slowmode, huh?
what's going on in the quiet room today?
I booked a kayaking rental for today, and the rental company wasn't open and there was no response to my phone call.
well that stinks. I'd be upset. Although maybe they had some kind of emergency or covid or something
did you physically go there, or just call?
anyone know how to have no border thingy on carbonsh?
i went to image and didn't select anything which looks like it's transparent, but it's not sadge
nvm got it, just reduced with/height to noen
I called them yesterday and said i'd make a booking online after I knew what my friends wanted, and made the booking online yesterday. Today when I went there, they weren't there.
I know that sometimes these small shops are only staffed by one or two people, and they might be out helping some other customer or something. I'd hope they left a sign or something. Did you wait for a bit?
For twenty minutes, and tried calling them.
I'd bet the person didn't bring a phone with them wherever they went. Still, that stinks
They say they're open on reservation only in May, but I had a reservation. It sucks. But life goes on 🙂
get your money back, or reschedule
I didn't pay anything, I just made a reservation. So no money lost here, just some precious time.
Getting there, waiting, and getting out.
yeah. Maybe they'll give you a discount or something next time
They already did 🙂
in your opinion, do you think using adding an About Me page to my Notion write-ups page weird or unusual?
Depends on where you’re publishing the write ups too imho @radiant jacinth
If it’s somewhere like a blog where you have a section for that then perhaps
the write ups itself are on a Notion page as such; I was thinking maybe adding another tab or something
If it’s somewhere with no context like that then I don’t see the harm?
Aaah
Yeah I think you could add a page or a little paragraph without affecting readability nicely
thanks 😊 just wanted another opinion
Hope we'll see some more write ups 
of course! going to be pretty busy while studying PTS
It's a canal, for boats
Since I've seen some foodstuff posted here, I'll do the same. Pork done on an open fire
Some? This is the food channel.
yes, this and some other signs make me think they're from/in northern Finland. My parent's place just got 30cm fresh snow 😄
Somewhere up north anyways
or high up
Trees in the background look like birch but it's fuzzy
But Finland is a good a guess as any
The cup in the background looks like a kuksa. The bottle looks like a Finnish canola oil bottle.
OSINT level: 100
Good guess Arhu, but thats an easy guess as a finn innit
Doing one of the thm OSINT rooms, I saw a restaurant I recognized right away. ”Hey I’ve been there” 😄
Yes, but that grill has welds that were hand made, and that kind of quality can only be from <insert small viking town here>
And now we know where you live 😉
Nah, that was in Asia 🙂
well now we know where you've traveled, and can look through passport registries, and .... profit
But with that snow, at least you don't have mosquitos yet. We got our first ones already 😄
I was thinking Finn though
Nice I have 2 projects or home assingments left
I am working on a little something as well. Kinda excited about it
Can anyone help me to get my router admin password without resetting it
You can't
If you've lost it, why don't you just reset it?
i don't know my ISP configuration's on my router
Normally theres a pin on the back which if you use a needle or a small object, you can push it. (To reset it)
it has only reset
You can also google the manual for your router as well. Some modems will require PPOE credentials if you do a factory reset; call your customer support line if you aren't sure.
sometimes the admin password is printed on the back. Sometimes it's the same as the serial number
Google the make and model and get the defaults
The 'ISP' router I got when I signed on was so locked down, that I had to google the actual SuperUser creds to configure a phone line .....
Any thoughts on adding a writeup tab to the public profile page?
that's actually a kind of cool idea
you could then link your public profile and people could see a list of your 'published' writeups
Yeah, I like that idea. Send it to #feedback-and-ideas
did u try calling them
Momos?
momazos papu :v
What the devil are you talking bout?
Que video
They're banned.
Oh 😂 were they bad?
Did you try default passwords?
can yall hack this persons account
Nope
@cinder canopy That is illegal
What we can hack and what we want to hack are different.
We only "hack" things that we own, or have explicit permission to do so.
oh
It's not about the hacking. It's about the friends we make along the way
and about the hacking. But the good sort thats not illegal
Esqy is lying. It's all about the friends.
No illegal hacking allowed dude
Please leave it to the mods 🙂

Slow cooker Apple & Pear pie with oat and pecan topping by yours truly along with Mother Blund 
Man this slow cooker highkey best thing ever
Ingredients:
4 apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
3 Bosc pears, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Ingredients for the topping:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes
Directions:
-
To make the topping, combine flour, oats, pecans, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add cold butter and toss to coat, using your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs; set aside.
-
Lightly coat the inside of a 4-qt slow cooker with nonstick spray. Place apples, pears into the slow cooker. Stir in brown sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. Sprinkle with reserved topping, using your fingertips to gently press the crumbs into the batter.
-
Place a clean dishtowel over the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat for 2-3 hours or high heat for 90 minutes. Remove the dishtowel and continue cooking, uncovered, until the topping is browned and the apples are just tender, about 1 hour.
-
Serve warm
Looks delish!
It was so mf good but in my humble opinion you can reduce the sugar a little, it's very sweet
Whee, got the long-awaited bike today.

any THM course aiming a bit on practice stuff for CISSP? or advices to look for this cert? should there be other certs to do before?
been a it tech/admin for 8 years but never did project management really... really looking into a professional move into sec, eventualy asap management position
CISSP is a theory-based cert and it's aimed at people with several years experience in the field. Once you pass the test you have to go through the endorsement process listed on their site.
The CISSP is ideal for experienced security practitioners, managers and executives interested in proving their knowledge across a wide array of cybersecurity practices.
You also have to maintain the cert by undergoing further training on a regular basis
yeah I already looked it up, just wondering if there is some stuff that helps in general on THM, just to have a better focus as im doing stuff on here
instead of doing general stuff/challenges. Like, I guess the defensive path is more focus on such a cert?
For CISSP you need a broad range of general knowledge in many areas. The content on THM would help but you'll need other resources as well.
CISSP get the Shon Harris (RIP) book
only using THM wasnt my intention, I just love to use THM on free time so I was wondering if I could mix fun and useful
yup, alreayd have it on my list
there are a few rooms that could help a little bit... like the Crypto rooms
ah =/ done already, hey I guess doing the defensive path still isnt wasted time
Smoked chicken, tomato and grape salad and grilled zucchini
looks good, will have salmon burgers later
I like salmon, I like burgers, but I never mix the two...maybe I'm old fashioned 😄
I actually really appreciate this recommendation, means quite a lot seeing it from someone with your level of experience
I'd have to take a deeper look, there are probably more but crypto definitely comes to mind
thanks
Can someone help make this person shut the fuck up? All I need is a threat I guess?
What do you mean?
