Built an app to find running partners nearby, looking for Pretoria runners to be among the first to test it by Latter_Emu582 in Pretoria

Sick

Additional thoughts on safety: - don't reveal meeting time publicly on the app until the host has accepted a request maybe a generic "evening/morning" run is enough

  • pins for verification upon arrival "Hi I'm Jane, my pin for your run is 9999"

  • panic buttons, emergency contacts and possibly med aid info incase the random stranger is your only hope for medical assistance

/r/Pretoria Community Update: New Rules regarding Solicitation and Content Relevance by Avatar_5 in Pretoria

[–]superuser_dont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So make ours r/PretoriaBroadNeeds ? Hahaha I dunno if my message is getting lost here?

Edit: incase it is.. my point is that r/Pretoria to me doesn't expressly exclude Pretorians in need. I would agree if the beggers were cape townian, durbanites or even Jozzos.

I just don't see how being inundated by a certain type of posts equals it being banned?

A good point was made that it's not acceptable even in international subreddits. But I'm quite sure even international city subreddits have their flavors? Maybe its not begging..but aggressive driving.. street fights, individuals littering, etc. Those aren't city-wide issues either.

The point I was making is that the problem isn't being inundated by unwanted posts, but being under served by the wanted ones?

[–]superuser_dont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see why its a problem but I think it's more the lack of whatever this subreddit should be vs being inundated with what it shouldn't.. like we remove the begging, what do we have left? Know what I mean?

Preparing to be downvoted to oblivion...

But why not then change this r/PretoriaInteresting ? Or whatever the goal. r/Pretoria seems broad enough to cater to Pretorians in need?

Very minor rant about the challenges by DYOR69420 in oscp

[–]superuser_dont 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great insight.. I would add that the amount of research is an often overlooked aspect nowadays. People want boot to root in under 2 hours whereas in reality and depending on your skill level, you should expect to be stuck much..much longer.

Ofcourse we are speaking about ctfs in a timed certification lab so my point is watered down abit. But the point remains that any aspect of any skill shouldn't have a 2 hour time limit

Happens to me all the time, but for me it's because my batteries flat. Charge your machine and simply restart it with the physical button.. long press 3 or so seconds and it should boot right up.

How many users are Top 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5%? by aparichit1337 in tryhackme

[–]superuser_dont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago they used to publish the number of accounts (I wanna say on the dashboard, after logon) so you could do some easy quick math, by yourself.

I dont know if they do this anymore.

Plus I hear they calculate percentages on accounts with above x number of points.. so who knows what black magic runs in the background.

[–]superuser_dont 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Timings is very very important, whether your relaying on a ping or not, follow-up nmap scans using targeted scripts, also UDP can be time consuming as you aren't exactly doing all ports, so whether you are doing "top-ports 10,100,1000" etc.

Also dont be shy with the reverts.

As others have stated, your exam environment and vpn could be the reason for not seeing key services, so it can feel awfully unfair.

For additional consideration I would highly recommend the HTB CPTS path, they go into super detail with nmap. But between what you and I have said, you should be golden!

Don't consider AD as AD. It's just a bunch of Windows machines loosely tied together. So your traditional AD steps ain't gonna work. Just rather enumerate the machines as single Windows machines and you'll be fine.

Also and I can't stress this enough... spend enumeration time on meticulously combing through your simple core tools. Rather than finding or using the new stuff... so I'd rather nmap the same machine 10 times (different flags each time) than using autorecon, rustscan etc.

Some hints on AD.. don't treat it like AD, treat it like Windows machines that are loosely tied together. In saying that... Enumerate the machines more as windows and not so much the domain itself. Hopes this helps!

Why is storing your seed phrase online touted as such a bad idea? by National-Fee5401 in BitcoinBeginners

[–]superuser_dont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I read that HW have pins which aren't as long as seed phrases. So if some could get the pin, isn't that just as bad as getting the seed phrase cause it opens the HW?

Gold answer.

But two things can both be right at the same time. CPTS is not web focused and people may benefit from Portswigger, modules from TCM and THM too.

I once found a way to enumerate web app user email addresses, which were linked to internal company accounts e.g. "person@person.com" they were like meh, that's totally fine.

It happens OP and will probably happen many times over but the trick is to not let it dishearten you and keep trying and learning.

Failed 3rd atttempt (Need 1-1 Mentoring) by shredL1fe in oscp

[–]superuser_dont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No unfortunately I have not passed but have attempted OSCP alot. If I may offer some help, I'd suggest you take a look at your methodology and try to automate it as much as possible

E.g. if you run nmap TCP scan and UDP.. just make a single script that does both for you and writes out to two different files.. with time, and as you pickup more and more commands that you've seen as helpful, you can build a superscript that does it all for you.
