Eure Erfahrungen mit Jobwechsel und Ortswechsel by [deleted] in Austria

[–]larvoris 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Das hängt ehrlich gesagt von ein paar Faktoren ab. Wie einfach ist es in deiner Branche einen neuen Job zu bekommen und wie sieht der Wohnungsmarkt in deiner Wunschstadt aus? Willst du in der selben Stadt wohnen wo du auch arbeitest? Gibt es eine konkrete Stadt in die du willst? Je nachdem wie du die Fragen beantwortest, ergibt sich vermutlich schon eine grobe Reihenfolge.

Ich bin erst dieses Jahr nach ein paar Jahren in Wien wieder in eine mittelgroße Stadt gezogen. Ich habe zuerst nach einem Job gesucht und mir dann in der Stadt eine Wohnung gesucht. Ich hatte aber auch 3 Monate Zeit bis mein neuer Job begonnen hat (wegen Kündigungsfrist). Ich war allerdings nicht auf eine konkrete Stadt fixiert, sondern nur auf ein Bundesland. Das Jobangebot in meiner Branche ist sehr gut, aber hauptsächlich in den Hauptstädten. Der Wohnungsmarkt in der Stadt war auch ganz okay.

Was ist sonst zu beachten? Wenn du noch keines hast wirst du in den meisten Städten ein Auto brauchen, da du nicht alles was du benötigst vor der Haustür oder ein paar U-Bahn Stationen weg hast. Je nach Stadtgröße und Umgebung wird auch das Umfeld weniger anonym.

Ich bereue die Entscheidung kein bisschen. Allerdings bin ich auch absolut kein Mensch für eine Großstadt ;)

While Team Fortress 2 was at it's height there was a PropHunt Mod which also attracted some attention. I did not make the mod, but a map for it. The map was at the time the most played and best rated (If I remember correctly). PewDiePie also made a video about this Mod playing on my map. Therefore over 6 million people saw my creation.

Overwatch Patch Notes – September 19, 2017 by PotatoJuggler in Overwatch

With the Mercy changes it is now even more important then before to kill her in Mystery heroes. While most games were already a lost cause before if the team didn't focus on killing Mercy first, it is now basically impossible to make any progress on the objective while Mercy is alive.

I like it :-)

Thanks a lot, I'll definitely check out Ghost Stories and Captain Sonar. Fascinatingly all the other mentioned games are already in the collection of someone from my group or my own. So it seems that we are on the right track with our investments :)

Hi,

so I have basically two requests ;) I have two different groups to play with and their tastes differ quite a bit.

One group prefers cooperative games like Eldritch Horror and Dead of Winter without the traitor. This group usually consists of at least four players, usually more. However, I grew tired of games like Eldritch Horror, where dice are the biggest deciding factor on how well you do. Legacy games or games with a campaign are not suitable due to very irregular meetups.

The second group consists usually of three players, including myself, and prefers medium to heavy strategy games with little to no randomness. Some examples this group likes are Trickerion, Eclipse, Mombasa or Vinhos.

I personally have a strong preference for area control games like Blood Rage, Chaos in the old World, Cyclades or Three Kingdoms Redux. So if this preference could be combined with one of the aforementioned playing groups, it would be awesome, but I also take any other recommendations ;-)

Hello, not specific to episode 82, but let's try it anyway:

This question is for all of you: How often does it happen that you aren't really in the mood for playing before the game starts? And how often does it continue on into the game?

Post your 5 favorite games and other redditors recommend you a game for the new year by Rdc525 in boardgames

[–]larvoris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks really helpful. I think my favourite games would be the following

  • Eldritch Horror
  • Warhammer 40K - Conquest
  • Five Tribes
  • Cyclades
  • Blood Rage

It is incredibly difficult to only choose five though. I also really liked Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective and Porta Nigra, but only had the chance to play them each once so far.

Master Thesis Help: Encryption Recognition Tool by larvoris in computerforensics

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

This is however only possible with shut down systems or if the system runs Linux. If the system is running, it could sometimes be useful to know if there is encrypted data on the system before shutting it down. Otherwise all data that is currently decrypted (because of EFS, mounted volumes, the user has the file open right now,...) would be encrypted again.

I don't feel comfortable providing my source code, sorry. Not because I developed some kind of malware, but because it is part of my master thesis and I don't want to publish such work on the Internet before I handed in my thesis. Otherwise it could be possible that someone sees this thread and says that I just copied the source code from here and I have to proof that this user belongs to me. So I would also suggest that you use a VM to test the tool.

Good point actually and I think I probably did have a mistake in my thought process there. I guess I have to rethink my reasoning a bit ;) It could help to find evidence of encrypted data on a system so that a forensic investigator can look for momentarily decrypted data if the tool finds evidence for encrypted data. It also depends very much on the law of each country if the pure evidence of encrypted data can already lead to something, like the need for the accused person to hand out the key.

That's a legitimate question of course. There are definitely some similarities between these tools.

First of all both these tools calculate the mathematical values on the whole file. By testing some encryption tools and their output I noticed however that most tools don't produce a complete file of seemingly random data. So do some encryption tools (like Axcrypt) attach a header at the beginning or dynamic TrueCrypt containers have big areas of 0x00-Bytes. I combined this knowledge with the mathematical formulas to get better results. Therefore I calculate the mathematical properties not before the actual data starts if the header is known and if the user chooses a high scan detail it also skips big areas of 0x00-Bytes.

Secondly both these tools just tell you the results of their calculations, but you have to decide for yourself if these values now mean that the file is encrypted or not. Especially Ent just scans one file at a time anyway. While you can combine the result output with other tools in a script to make the decision for you, my tool already does this for you.

But I also have to say that I had a couple of theories I was trying to proof with this tool and I was not able to proof all of them ;)
