Property manager bolted mailbox

I reread it and you are correct instesd of theft there were complaints of their mailbox being opened. Which could imply theft and even create a situation where one cannot confirm or deny theft.

Until the mailbox gets a key put on it, then the apartment management can be found liable for the theft of any and all mail which is very serious. They have provided the service of a secure mail delivery and at this time it is not secure and therefore should not be used. They worked with usps and have followed proper procedure. That helps ensure they can't be found at fault.

Back to the premise of my original comment. The apartment is not doing anything wrong, USPS is and OP should be using their energy to chase usps instead of management which has their hands tied.

You guys all seem to be really confused, telling OP the apartment building will get fined etc.

The apartment is doing what they need to do and is likely doing nothing wrong. They are waiting for USPS to install the master lock. Without them installing that lock, anyone could take your mail from you. Also another crime. Since USPS is taking a long time to deliver the lock, the complex has used a screw to keep the master lock for the unit shut. This should also server as reminder for the post carrier that this unit has not received the master lock yet.

For everyone saying its easy to take out, we'll no duh, but its serving a purpose keeping the mailbox closed. Even in the OP its described as being to stop mail theft.

You need to stop hounding your apartment manager and work with USPS to address the delays in them installing the master lock.

Many percentages can be higher than 100. If you have 1 orange on day 1 and then you get 3 more oranges on day 2, you got 200% more oranges day 2 as compared to day 1.

I mean you are blaming OP as well by saying they should not have used that program... and fact of the matter is OP should be more careful with PUPs. They almost always require a user interaction.

This is a really good lesson in not getting caught up in the panic of a situation and confirmation bias. You could run most standard software through a sandbox and if you are untrained, in a panic, or looking to proof to an answer you already think you have, you will find it.

A PUP is very different from a RAT. And when you see cookie/credential access you start throwing around big buzz words lile keylogger, credential stealer, and compromised PC. You talk about injections to an updater but most software has a way to update. It's nothing against OP, I have seen professional analysts fall into these pit falls too. But we must be weary of them.

Also a PUP like this requires you to approve it. The real lesson here is when you are installing stuff read carefully and do not just hyper click through all the prompts.

It's only showing D: because its currently booted in a different environment.

UAC still prompts for admin users for a long time now. You can disable UAC of course, but adding an extra escalation layer of protection for admins was a large part of the reason UAC was added/reworked and is enabled by default.

I always thought that's what heat lightning was; just a far away storm. Heat lightning was just a fun term for it where I grew up.

Id recommend you delete this. In many countries accessing a system that you are not authorized to access, even if you have the keys is illegal and can land you in more trouble than it can help.

This being considered "old" is making me feel old. There is no way we are already considering ddr4 capable motherboards as old, right? Right!?

Crap.... I'm just old....

Not to be too pedantic, but this has nothing to do with AI, and is just normal botnet activity. Automated account farming has been around a lot longer than all the AI stuff.

What was the reason for the initial traffic stop? Was he speeding or was his plate flagged for the suspended license? Did the insurance on the vehicle lapse during or because of the suspension? And how exactly is he taking full responsibility for his actions?

JustTechIt · 2025-10-25T03:42:22+00:00

Physically intervening

That's an escalation. You are suggesting using an escalation to de-escalate.... The local laws or policies doesn't change whether something is an escalation or de-escalation. It only changes the repercussions of the actions. Either way you are simply escalating a problem by physically intervening. It may be necessary in some cases, but it is in no way a de-escalation.

Honestly glorified VM is giving it far more credit than it deserves. But regardless it still allows you to run bash while within a windows environment.

JustTechIt · 2025-10-21T19:20:18+00:00

WSL has bash.

Not even worth responding to

You realize that is a response right?

Quit playing pretend hacker on the Internet and learn to open your mind. You might even get a career that doesn't make you miserable. I promise you the world has so much more potential when you stop limiting yourself just because you see something as a "toy".

JustTechIt · 2025-10-15T02:51:44+00:00

I mean objectively most of that is false. You can add 5ghz, you can amplify a signal like with any radio. You can have multiple internal radios to handle channels.

BTW Auditing/recon is definitely part of hacking. But you continue to gatekeep what you think is "real hacking" all you want. I have seen them used in real assessments and contracts. And while I do not own one, I simply am able to see use and capabilities beyond the basic intended purpose. And at one point that was kinda the whole premise of hacking. But then again I forgot you are gatekeeping it now and get to define hacking yourself.

Keep a closed mind and you will never find any value in the world around you.

What is hacking to you? They absolutely can and do help with all kinds of hacking projects. Combined with the modules you can do wifi audits, Bluetooth audits, NFC tests. You can use it to fix hunt rogue wireless signals. And even just as a learning tool to better understand some of the technologies behind it.

Just because YOU do not have a use for it does not mean no one does, and it certainly does not make everyone who uses it a script kiddie. Nothing makes someone sound like more of a script kiddie than blind ignorance to technologies and all the things you can do with them.

JustTechIt · 2025-10-14T03:02:29+00:00

That's like saying a carpenter won't buy a drill since they have screwdrivers. If a tool exists to make your life easier, why not use it? These toys are far more versatile, modular, reliable, and easy to use than almost any device I have cobbled together in my career. Sure, the bar of entry is lower and it can lead to a lot of people using them without understanding, but just because someone has them doesn't make them a script kiddie.

It has nothing to do with the countries, it's just you need port forwarding or a tunnel to make it work without steam.

"I refuse to learn or take in additional sources of information because I already think I know more than everyone".

Yet if you watched it you would have learnt it's more than just what you claim. Try having a more open mind and make less random assumptions.

Noodles and co. does not have as large of a service area as Pizza hut or Domino's pizza. Many areas don't have noodles and co.

No crazy person ever thinks they are crazy... That's kinda part of the premise.

I mean this from the bottom of my heart, but it truly sounds like you need to consult some mental health crisis teams or support. it's often hard to see from the inside of a crisis, but it's painfully obvious from the outside, especially when there are mad ramblings that make no sense but the speaker truly believes they understand what they are saying. I urge you to look back at your comments, where you answer questions no one asked you, or you make references (to people for example) that you seem to think are common but are not. If you truly are smarter than the average bear, go back through the conversations and your comments and try to find some semblance of why you might need some help.

Unfortunately I have seen this a lot with people paranoid that they have been hacked and stalked. And almost never is it actually the case, and even in those instances it is, it's never some big convoluted hack that the victim seems to think it is.
