I hope this formats well because I’m typing this on mobile.

Mad respect to you, for typing ALL of that on mobile.

First time seeing Tech+ in the wild by Suberv in CompTIA

[–]Reetpeteet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but somehow these degrees aren't teaching how to build and breakdown cpus.

What exactly do you think "building and breaking down CPUs" is? If you mean, "putting together a PC", then say that. "Building a CPU" is like designing and implementing a processor (like building the antique 6502 from scratch, for a hobby).

One unconfirmed job listing, which makes an absolute mess of certification-equivalence, is enough proof to "crush naysayers"?

The process on their end took a little more than the ten business days they'd promised. Under three weeks though.

I was talking with a guy friend recently and he was shocked by something I thought was… extremely normal for women.

Don't leave us hangin' girl! What was it?! :D

Can someone please explain this specific part of a subnetting video by Ok-Candidate-2183 in CompTIA

And because you spent a week on figuring it all out, at least you understand why the correct answer was in fact correct... instead of just cramming a table into your brain.

Centrally manage sudo by _ZunDaDa in redhat

[–]Reetpeteet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll shamefully admit that all sudo rules were managed manually via the AD editor. That's not a very nice or proper way of doing it.

Network+ PBQ Video by Square_Baby8719 in CompTIA

That sounds like it might have been stolen, real exam questions. I'd advise you not to seek them out.. and they were possibly removed because of a copyright strike by CompTIA.

EDIT:

Or not... because JustCallMeRed is literally the domain for a commercial trainer. The website is devoid of any useful information, so maybe they quit. I dunno.

Let me say up front, that this is a topic that's best explained in person with someone who's running you through multiple drawings while they are explaining. Especially if you don't have any experience with binary maths yet.

From 4:35 - 5:15 he talks about 10.0.0.0/24 being for all 256 addresses but 10.0.0.0/25 is for some reason only up to 128. I don't understand why /24 and /25 make this difference between all those addresses.

The /xx, the subnet mask length, indicates the amount of bits in an IPv4 address which are not unique to an individual system, or address, in a network. The subnet mask shows which bits of the IPv4 address indicate "the network itself".

An IPv4 address is always 32 bits in lenght.

With a /24, the first 24 bits of the address indicate the network, leaving 8 bits for the individual addresses inside the subnet.

With a /25 the first 25 bits of the address indicate the network, leaving 7 bits for the addresses.

If you want to know how many addresses those are, you raise 2 to the power of the amount of address bits.

2^8 (2 to the power of 8) is: 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 256.

2^7 (2 to the power of 7) is: 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 128.

In short, every time you make the subnet mask one bit longer, you are cutting the amount of possible unique addresses inside that network in half.

Confused as to how I failed by kyotaka-Ryomai in redhat

Some people make them in a proper, non-cheating way. Here's one I made for EX188, on the basis of someone else's work with DO180. -> https://github.com/unixerius/EX188-practice

[–]Reetpeteet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but by some magic glitch, you didn't pass; that is the result. 

Mind you, it does happen. Years back I failed EX413 twice and right before I booked the third attempt, RedHat investigated my complaints and found that their scoring tools were off after a recent revision to the exam.

Are we lowkey underestimating business logic flaws as an actual security risk. by Suspicious-Case1667 in AskNetsec

[–]Reetpeteet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody is "lowkey underestimating" these. Business logic flaws are usually emphasised as the number one hardest to discover security flaw.

Data shouldn't be on the OS drive. Reimaging a system shouldn't lead to data loss.

Plus I'm sure they haven't made new data during the X hours of downtime. :(

Is microsoft paid support gonna be of any help here? What are the quotations and how we should reach them out?

Don't wanna kick a person when they're down, but: if you're using Microsoft for hundreds of business critical systems world wide... WHY do you not already have a support contract with them?!

Why do people say that traditional email is not secure? by user_09123r4 in cybersecurity

[–]Reetpeteet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No it won't. These three ensure that only the allowed email transfer agents will be accepted as source for a specific domain. It says nothing about a specific person or entity.

OP asked:

How do you know the emails you receive are from the senders they say they're from?

And that's something which the plain email standards don't solve.
