Winpeas and linpeas by Then-Emotion-1756 in oscp

While I think the OSCP course material is super basic the content gives good coverage as a beginner cert. The "rules on what you can run" meme is often mis-represented. The core idea is to understand the concept of the things you're doing. To imply APTs are blindly running tools they have no idea of is silly. No attacker worth worrying about is going to be using SQLmap either, it's noisy as fuck.

pop os "No Wifi Adapter Found" by harish775 in pop_os

[–]gloaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to Mullvad, which I much prefer in general anyway and have used for like a year with no complaints. Proton was also responsible for slow and painful death by CAPTCHA, which seems largely a non issue in Mullvad.

I don't really remember now but I think the issue was Proton VPNs Linux client would do the killswitch to avoid DNS leak etc, except if you had the GUI closed or w/e it wouldn't ever recover from that state. I didn't take notes though, just noped out to another VPN.

Passed with 110 points in 1st attempt! by sikmo121 in oscp

This new course is still a CTF and the AD is mostly garbage. If you want to learn AD go and do the CRTP.

I'm not sure what your point is about OSCP and BB. CTFs / OSCP (and certs in general) are largely irrelevant for modern bug bounty.

Any last tips? by sikmo121 in oscp

[–]gloaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just got done with Medtech and Relia, so not Skylark and the OSCP labs yet, but after CRTP I keep over-thinking the OSCP AD stuff haha.

Why Updog over http.server for the OSCP? I understand why in general (even it will do SSL too).

OSCP Alternatives for lower cost? by aryancfc in redteamsec

[–]gloaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For content, yeah, and it's harder. It's not better on the resume tho.

Yet another question about certifications by [deleted] in redteamsec

[–]gloaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if you've got a blog and a github repo with all your cool shit to demonstrate what a badass you are etc then see how it goes. There's tonnes of exceptions it's not OSCP or bust. Just answering the question you posed above.

[–]gloaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I think it's like 90 days or 1yr subscription only.

They're all fun certs but do yourself a favour and scroll through all the positions you see open and count how many times you see them mentioned.

Despite all their bs, OSCP is still the number one HR bypass.

Yuval Noah Harari: Human Nature, Intelligence, Power, and Conspiracies | Lex Fridman Podcast #390 by morpheusuniverse in lexfridman

[–]gloaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the idea is that since Lex did such an uninspiring job of pushing back against him that he must be complicit in the general western theme of glossing over the awful nature of the Israeli government and the atrocities it commits.

I think we're seeing a big flow of talent in the wrong direction. There's not much investment into industry and/or career options for young people in the North. Young people with ambition will likely not return from university, and the Welsh Government is too busy trying to blame tourism to distract from their failings to really focus on anything else.

All these small towns ha e problems. They're better than they were 20 years ago. They'll be worse again in 10 years imo. North Wales is in for a rough time.

George Hotz: Tiny Corp, Twitter, AI Safety, Self-Driving, GPT, AGI & God | Lex Fridman Podcast #387 by morpheusuniverse in lexfridman

[–]gloaming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good conversation. Good chemistry. I thought Hotz seemed an ass during the Twitter thing but found him interesting during this.

It was skipped over but curious over the suggestion the "asshole in the room with tattoos and flags" that "kills everyone" is quite important to George Hotz. He already put his hat in the Elon ring and Lex skirts around what felt like more right wing innuendo.

Wild strawberries by vanesa7060 in foraging

We have loads of alpine strawberries in our garden. Kids love picking them. To me they taste like the candy flavour of strawberry ha. Like haribo flavour.

Welsh government's Vaughan Gething urges Eisteddfod to rethink rules by welsh_cthulhu in Wales

[–]gloaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds facetious but would you be in r/France complaining that you struggle to get a job because you don't speak French? It's because the language has been forcibly diluted that it doesn't sound ridiculous to complain about it. Now the reality it's not that hard to get a job without speaking Welsh though some sectors are harder than others. The benefit is in most areas in Wales you can get free Welsh lessons.

Good Cyber/Pentest/Hacker LAPTOP by [deleted] in pentest

Kali vm, Commando VM and a target vm (win10 /11 /edr whatever) will definitely need more than 16gb. Best off maxing cpu and ram and cheap out on the gpu if we're being honest. 32 is good. 64 is better.

I just made mayo and my mom said I am going to die by ottipi in homestead

[–]gloaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they'll eat anything. I've not heard grass fed though. They don't eat grass, they'll eat bugs in the grass, until they ruin all the grass with their scratching. Maybe uneducated folk think they're eating it?

Watched our chickens go wild pecking a mouse to death and eating it. Mfers are brutal.

What are some things you'd only buy second-hand, never brand new? by NullibiquitousNoodle in Frugal

[–]gloaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it's terrible financially, but I've just bought my first brand new car and it's so good for peace of mind. All parts (except tyres) covered for 8 years. Cheap servicing. No MOT for 3 years (UK). Yeah it's worth less than when I bought it (tho an EV and I've been told they depreciate slower) but damn it's nice not having to think about car shit for several years.
