@HamZa Agreed on this, but the reason we tolerate her is because we like her... and we think she's funny. We know when she's joking, and when she isn't... and that's just my two cents.
And the fuzz gets fuzzier as influx of new folks speeds up. Some of whom will see mildly scurrilous comments and assume their slightly more risqué comments are also acceptable
I'm leaving anyway, at least for a bit. I just wanted to say what I had on my mind now so that I'm not turning up in November or something and dragging this up again then.
@silverpenguin I was finally able to solve "Simple ROP" from last CTF. It turns out I wasn't calling it correctly, I had to use "stdin" of cat in order to keep it open and send commands: cat payload.txt - | ./rop1
Never having used Slack before, I have hit a stumbling block...this may seem like a really stupid question but how in the name of the Great Bear do you write a message on it?
Not what I expected. I just had a chat with an Englishman who lives in Sweden. We spent 3 minutes telling me about his life in Sheffield, his hot Swedish ex-wife, and that I should come for a visit in Stockholm
Slack - my 5 minute diagnosis: too damn complicated, and currently only works on my phone, so really difficult to navigate and really small screen so only able to see 3 messages at a time
My basic question is this:
When we are using the Linux / Debian apt-get or yum package system, we're placing a lot of faith in that the packages we're downloading and installing are secure. For that matter, even downloading Linux images from Ubuntu or Debian or Red Hat or whatever, we are assumi...
Would it be bad to reply to the answer to that question which says "we don't know what wizards can do" with a link to rpg.se saying that these people do?
To what level could this be applied to? Could someone record keystrokes on a keyboard and in combination with typing habits start to put together a picture of what the user is typing?
If this is indeed true what steps could the user take to help mitigate this?
I know that these attacks have bee...
@ThomasPornin Got a crypto question for you: Can keyed blake2 be used in all the same circumstances as HMAC-SHA or are there nuances I should take note of?
Mainly because I see this para in the RFC:
> BLAKE2 does not require a special "HMAC" (Hashed Message Authentication Code) construction for keyed message authentication as it has a built-in keying mechanism.
who was it that got me to start reading the airz23 stories? @SmokeDispenser was that you?
ah no it was @SomeGuy.
damn you. it is totally engrossing and very upsetting. why doesnt he just quit? or sue his boss?? or stand up and highfive him in the face with a chair???
@SmokeDispenser it's pretty much the same from the perspective of the OP. It's really the request and response, but at the level they are asking, it's a gentle improvement in grammar
@SmokeDispenser it isn't less accurate, the original was also inaccurate. If you wanted to edit to "request and response" that would be the ideal outcome, I guess
Oh - they are audiobooks, @AviD - then I won't. I don't generally like audiobooks
As I understand it in order to commit a succesful MiTM attack you need to be "sitting" somewhere along the traffic path. I assume this means being hooked up to one of the nodes inbetween the end points, physically splicing the wire connecting them, or intercepting air waves.
Are my assumptions...
Speaking of, now that we've expanded we've expanded the scope of beer to cover all sorts of beverages, I tried something new for the first time. I posted my first ever question on the SE network.
