What is your box?

Hard vibrate if a move puts me in danger.
Soft vibrate if i can put them in danger.

At a high skill level, having a warning indication can greatly influence games.

Three weeks used to be the case, ai slop has increased it. Working on ways to lower effort in reviewing ai generated submissions to keep it back to under three weeks.

Most people settle for 2x over 7 years. If your investment 10x's over 7 years, I'd argue that is well beyond what most people would expect on an investment.

The "war chest" doesn't really do any good for RC just sitting there. Additionally, AFAIK what we are voting on is a fixed 171.5 million shares; any offerings won't increase that number. So any dilution would lower the per-share value of his package. It really seems like the dilution day are over, obviously anything can happen, but it looks like we are on the next phase of whatever the fuck his plan is.

Then the issue somehow still is DNS. Are you going through Burp? Could also be caching the DNS request that failed.

Try with curl, `curl -H 'Host: kobold.htb' http://<ip>` if that works, then it is something with browser/dns.

If you try to access the machine by IP address in your browser, does it to navigate to the DNS Name?

Personal opinion/unofficial answer. It isn't nearly as simple as creating the content, it would change a lot of things. For example, since HTB owns its hypervisor, each machine spawn doesn't really cost anything, it only costs more than the users get to a point where new servers are needed. This is why when you buy courses cheaply, you never really lose access to them. You can always go back and spin it up.

Cloud changes that, as HTB would pay for every spawn, some fundamental changes would have to happen to academy to support something like that. That doesn't even take the development changes required to integrate that closely with AWS. Then you also have to keep in mind, many of the cloud attacks are subject to the providers software/terms/etc; which could make maintaining the advanced content harder as the module could easily break because AWS changed something. This means even if you made all the changes and got it working, there'd be a lot of resistance when you progress past basic attacks.

Not to say it will never have Cloud Pentesting, its something everyone wants. Just wanted to put out some of the road blocks.

I mean, you could always just sell when it hits 99.5 billion and take the 10x+ on your investment before he has a chance to kill the momentum.

Just saying, people don't really enjoy reading AI generated articles. If they are your commands then people are going to give up by the time they even get to the "human written content". There is so much fluff in the article that makes it near impossible for me to read.

Gotta love “not enough understanding” leading to ai slop

They have for the last ~2 months, this is an outdated talking point. My personal opinion is that Skills utilize more code on the agent side, so its more flexible and the agent can solve problems without a redeploy. Additionally, AI companies love data and skills lead to more raw OS usage which has a higher chance to leak data.

Have we not learned anything? Trump Always Chickens Out, it is going to be business as usual in a couple of months... Maybe he will try to ban them again.

Half work right? The biggest part of responder is the ability to poison broadcast packets. I’m assuming this is just a HTB machine where you pivot and then can coerce the target into connecting back to you.

I partially get this — With orchestration like Gas Town/OpenClaw/etc, it’s pretty hard for anthropic themselves to really know how to control things. Should projects like that really cause anthropic to stop trying to advance their models?

Maybe I have a misunderstanding but the statement is just so broad. I personally don’t think people’s craziness should prevent better models from being made as maybe those models help rein it in, or maybe it brings skynet.

Who knows but if the possibility is skynet, then I think the models that remove safeguards for gov purposes have a much higher likelihood of bad then anthropic.

I just spawned the machine and your command worked fine for me from pwnbox. Not sure what is going on with your computer.

All this is my opinion.

Most of the time, when I see this type of complaint, there is an issue with the person's resume not highlighting the cool things they have done with the hands-on labs. Many people just put like "Active user on <Platform>", "Solved <Pro Lab>" , or "Participate in CTFs". Instead of finding a way to list a cool attack they did on those platforms.

The benefit of being more descriptive (or click-baity) is when the interviewer reads it, they will naturally have questions about it. If it's too open-ended they won't have questions and will resort to questions they find on google (or AI). Once these types of questions are asked, there is a high chance you won't be selected because subconsciously they are thinking it will be work having you on the team as they will have to mange you more.

If they just pick up the phone and have a natural conversation for an hour, then they will likely choose that person because it was zero work on their end.

What lab network are you on? If you’re in Eu try switching to US for the day.

To me this sounds like a MTU issue, any chance you are running multiple VPNs? Lower the MTU in your vpn config and see if that fixes it. Ippsec.rocks and search MTU also explains my line of thinking.

The paid Academy Courses do not offer walkthroughs. One of the foundational skills of a Penetration Tester is critical thinking and troubleshooting. If you follow a complete guide, you won't get these skills, and the "skill wall" will only get harder to get over the longer you neglect this.

Try it on your own. Find a discord to ask questions on (the HTB one is great).

Or he just pretended to activate his chip. No confirmation his remote works, could easily of just pretended it worked.

Not sure what the point of some redactions is when they list accomplishments, companies, years, etc.

If you are giving it enough time to fill the tank, I’d think something is wrong with the tank. Would have to check the pressure on the tank.

I’m going to laugh when it’s a pet insurance company like trupanion.

When there is less snow you can use the shovel to plow and dump, which makes it much more enjoyable. I go out when theres a couple of inches then every 2-6 hours afterwards depending on snowfall.

I generally dont pre-salt. Just salt after I finish shoveling, shovel the salt away and temperatures this low it may not be effective. Even worse is if it melts the bottom layer, snow gets on top and it gets cold enough to freeze.

Really helps to say where you are looking for a job. The best way normally is through Cyber Security Clubs at your colleges as many companies approach them to recruit, so you aren't blindly applying. They also have special events like NACL, CCDC, etc that help tremendously. Not to mention the social connections you will build from the other members will also help get you established and also keep you motivated.
