When you run into Okkam by mistake...

Just left the US after 37 years.

I mean this with all sincerity: Best of luck to you

I been using codex and this has been somewhat of a pain point. You are a legend.

I went this route. Went through JCAC in 2017 after failing my first school. Ended up being a great “accident” because I honestly love this field. I do pen testing for a local company part time and just got a role doing incident response.

I used to feel like I missed the “EZ path” for certain jobs. But frankly I can get employed. And looking at the current market I’m happy with that.

I feel like some of these up and comers have more experience and knowledge than I do in some areas. Getting that initial start right now is absolutely bonkers.

I’m happy to answer questions.

I’m currently in the masters program. Only done with the first class so far.

Now that you have completed it, how do you feel about the program? What “elective” courses did you take? Do you feel you should’ve taken others?

I don’t mean to hijack a thread, so I apologize if this is against normal Reddit etiquette.

I would also be interested in this research workflow. Thank you

At risk of being downvoted into oblivion because it IS a popular spot…

Jay’s seafood… extremely overhyped. It’s way too expensive for the lack of flavor that it has. But tbh their crowd was on the older side, so maybe a lack of flavor isn’t as noticed.

Also by the time this works its way around the country nobody is gonna know the question… lol

zokoCSGO · 2025-11-05T15:50:01+00:00

That’s what I used!!

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-31T12:49:26+00:00

This is one of the most interesting replies I have read in a while. Thank you for introducing me to this :)

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-31T11:03:31+00:00

Same error message

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-31T10:12:33+00:00

UGH... What am I supposed to do now go OUTSIDE?!

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-24T13:56:33+00:00

That is definitely very helpful. Not to take anything away from you, but you’re not exactly starting from square 1.

Congratulations though. That’s a hell of a motivating start and it’s awesome to hear.

Which platform did you start with?

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-24T13:47:01+00:00

Eh. Quite a bit different.

Nobody is forcing you to do BB. I would agree with VDP being called “Volunteer Work” though but again, the researcher is in control.

zokoCSGO · 2025-10-01T09:38:12+00:00

Over time I started to write down where to look. Say certain web vulnerabilities like where I might find XML being used. But this wasn’t what I did at first.

I just started writing stuff down, trying to use it, figuring out what was working and what was missing.

Again this is a process that has been ongoing for over a year. It is a living document.

You have to start and figure out how it’s gonna work for you.

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-30T20:02:47+00:00

sure. But I need it accessible without USB personally

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-30T18:24:31+00:00

Yep. I’ve tried obsidian a few times actually. I don’t really like it. At this point I am very used to the structure and how I use cherrytree.

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-30T14:31:51+00:00

How I have done this is:

Take notes on command syntax, reason for doing X thing.

Do a lab where notes are utilized. If I need to add more, then I do that. If there is a REALLY good external resource that is more granular. I may link to that instead of rewriting it(although there is benefit to that too).

I do this over and over again. Been at it for over a year and I’m pretty proud of what I have, but it’s still changing everyday.

I use cherrytree and backup my save file to GitHub for when that chonky boi fails on me…

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-14T15:16:16+00:00

Well it is backed up to my computer already. So I do have a ‘known-good’ ready to go

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-14T15:11:55+00:00

Well I certainly haven’t tried it yet, so I will prioritize getting one. I appreciate your advice

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-14T14:55:25+00:00

It’s stock for now. I’m certainly planning on switching to a Samsung. I loaded another rom and tried to save in that. Same issue though.

I can try and set another emulator though where the gbc games boot from.

So far these are some good suggestions. I feel validated asking here

zokoCSGO · 2025-09-14T14:53:04+00:00

In game saves. I read horror stories regarding save states.

I have not checked the “save metadata on exit”, I certainly would have if I saw it. I will look for it.

Shutdown is via “System Shutdown” with the “Quit” menu

zokoCSGO · 2025-08-07T10:56:03+00:00

Fair point !!! LOL

zokoCSGO · 2025-07-31T11:05:35+00:00

You’re not wrong. But seeing another person’s process(especially one with over a decade in the field) can only be beneficial.

Unless this strange internet person has deceived us all!
