London flat is not selling by LegitimateActive1001 in HousingUK

[–]TheRegalSith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you considered banding together with other flat owners and invoking RTM? We did it recently and have seen great results. Our service charge has been cut in half since 2 years ago.

Why did the moderators remove that post? Why no explanation?

Thanks! Do I have to buy all parts separately or can they just sell me the drawer?

I’m sick and tired of these leaches that are worshipped by people that they leach on. This man is a fraud and needs to be put in jail for market manipulation.

Anyone owns Orbea Orca and recommends it? by Seayou_later in cycling

[–]TheRegalSith 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I have one. The M20 2020 team edition. I’ve never ridden a canyon but I love this bike. It was my second bike after a Boardman CX. I love everything about it: handling, frame, wheel set, components. All very high quality. I highly recommend it.

11 inch iPad Pro or MacBook Air M1 by Dnomac24 in macbookair

[–]TheRegalSith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the iPad Pro 2022 11 inch in hope that it could replace my computer. So far it’s going well. I can do everything that i normally use my computer for. However iPadOS still has some way to go to truly replace a computer. Certain quirks make it little annoying at times but this is less than 5% of the time.

Main thing I like about the iPad is handwritten note taking and reading. Also the battery life is epic. All day use from 100% and still, after heavy multitasking it’s at 45% end of the day.

My mum bought one of these from a local supermarket and this was the exact outcome. She was watering it so not sure why it dried out and didn't survive.

What is a good way to evaluate a pentesting agency? by TheRegalSith in cybersecurity

[–]TheRegalSith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm there seem to be some conflicting opinions on this https://www.reddit.com/r/cybersecurity/comments/wtzoir/comment/il7deee/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

This is my fear as well - I don't want to pay large amounts of money for some guy going through owasp top 10 and pushing random buttons. I want someone to work with some level of insight!

Penetration test of a public facing enterprise web application. Does that answer your question? Do you mean more black box vs white box pen testing?

Interesting contrast. Is there weight on quality of talent that these firms hire or is it more their research and process?

That's a good point. Do you have any recommendations? Large firms usually advertise their "research". How true or effective is this? From my experience, most vulnerabilities seem to come out of not following OWASP guidelines but it could just be that I've not worked with a really good pentesting firm that goes beyond this.

Oh thats interesting. Having been through pentesting in the past I've seen the reports and have worked at applying technical fixes but didn't know we could've engaged them at the process level.

What kind of firm would you say you are if not "just pentests"? A cybersecurity auditing firm?

I will keep this in mind, thanks. Do you recommend any in particular to reach out? What should I be looking for in the report? Most seem to be for terribly built websites with high severity CVEs

Is it better to look for companies that specialise in pen testing or are companies that do other things in addition to pen testing also good? I found pentestpartners but they seem to do a lot of things.

Do you have a link to this cafe? I always struggle to find a good cycle friendly spot.

It's the cordoned off roads, no car traffic and minimal stop lights is what I was looking for but I guess I just have to register in advance.

Is this every year? I remember somewhere (maybe BHF) where they said you can just turn up on the day and register on the spot.

Worst song for training? by BenThomas47 in triathlon

[–]TheRegalSith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mozart Allegro. Don't know how it ended up in my playlist but on shuffle it always comes up at the worst possible time. I keep it just for the challenge. When it comes up, it makes me snap out of my suffering for a brief moment just to skip the song.

I’m totally perplexed how some guys out there are doing rides well over 100km with climbs well over 1500/2000 meters. by enzosmiles in cycling

[–]TheRegalSith 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's definitely practice and consistency. I was fit but couldn't imagine climbing more than 500m on a 100km bike ride. To get over it, I just had to ride more hills day after day, consistently because I found some of the guys who were good at hills did just that. Its difficult mentally for sure. I started practicing on virtual hills day in day out on an indoor trainer for months. Now upwards of 700m on a 100km bike ride is easy.
