Q: Why don't you connect unused hot and neutral wires to "complete the circuit"?

Ok so I'm new to home wiring and had a question I'd like explained to me. I removed a vent hood over my oven and I thought I had to complete the circuit so I tied the hot and neuteral wires that were powering the hood together with a wire nut, but all the lights on that breaker in the house didn'...

Psycogeek

it is questions like this, that make me think i am a qualified electrician, even though i dont have a licence :-)

Freedo

I was just thinking

stoned, watching cable tv which is so obsolete

Psycogeek

whats scary is knowing someday they will (have a licence)

Freedo

and i thought...why cable tv companies can afford to deliver hundreds of HD channels but a ISP struggle to deliver netflix if everybody in a neighborhood is using it

Psycogeek

it is amazing the ammount of crap they shove down that one wire. but most of it is "broadcast" the same stuff to everyone, not 2 way , no different stream .

the direct and pay to watch stuff, and watch in different times uses a rather small portion of the available bandwidth.

from looking at the frequencies available for the personal stream kind of stuff, it seems to me it could get overloaded very quickly, if lots and lots of people Paid out the nose for that kind of demand viewing.

Freedo

03:32

So you are essentially saying that they can do that because it's one way communication ?

Psycogeek

and similar to fiber being capable of sending tens of thousands of different light frequencies down it , which is how they will and do expand the fiber capability, the cable has a ton of radio frequencies they can pipe down the same line.

and cable unlike over air broadcast, is not (as) limited to the vast array of frequencies they can use.

Freedo

Is there any kind of estimation of much data a cable tv transmit ? Just curiosity

Psycogeek

i am sure there is that info available. it must have some limitations in the frequencies they use, because people indicate that even cable companies compress stuff.

I have an antenna, but dont really watch tv, and the dude who does, claims the picture looks much better.

but it could be due just as much to any processing, de-re coding, to add local advertising, and processing to get it back and forth and all the distribution and all.

@Freedo you know i asked you if you wanted bounty on your question, dont know if you saw it. but i got bounty for good questions, that are answerable and explained well and all.

Freedo

All my past questions I believe I found my own solution later

so it's not necessary anymore thanks

Psycogeek

and then didnt Self Answer them, naughty naughty :-)

Freedo

03:45

I think I did on some

don't remember

Psycogeek

they were supposed to have like 500 channels down cable someday, about 13 that people would actually watch (thats how many there were in like 1960)

i counted ours once a few years ago and got about 330

Bob

@Freedo Broadcast, so you're limited by the number of channels regardless of the number of users. Netflix is limited by the number of simultaneous streams, not the number of shows (which do count towards storage space).

Also, IIRC in a single cable there's a lot more bandwidth allocated to TV than the data channels on the same cable.

Freedo

hmm I see

but I wish it was the other way

but I'm not aware of any cable tv offering 4k content

could they stream multiple 4k channels with current technology ?

Psycogeek

04:38

they could. even now the breakdown on bandwith had HD and SD channels, 4 SD cHannels can be wedged into the same spaces as a HD channel. so 4 hd channel spaces or 16 SD could make up one QHD space. Be fine with me if they had only 50 channels and they were all 4K, I dont even have a 4k monitor :-) they could remove the 3 food channels and the 17 shopping channels the 8 preach2me channeLs and have lots of spaces :-0

If bob would take Rupert Murdock back to AU , i am sure they can find some crime to pin on him :-) fox news could go away and the IQ of the states would go up 2 points.

@Bob Want server with 3TB+ HDD and redundant SSDs. Can get either for about $30 but to get both in the same box is $150+

The alternative being getting a server with 2/3x SSDs and using NFS for the 3TB+ bulk storage. But ironically I need STR more for the bulk storage than the SSD storage.

Interestingly managing about 0.2ms latency from virtual machine => host => network => router => two more routers => openstack network => openstack host => vps over NFS

Bob

@PotatoCat o.O

sounds like the kind of fragile setup I'd spend days failing to get working

they will only loan you 10k if you have 10k collateral?

DavidPostill

12:43

@Burgi The first public discussions of SQL injection started appearing around 1998; for example, a 1998 article in Phrack Magazine.

SQL injection

SQL injection is a code injection technique, used to attack data-driven applications, in which nefarious SQL statements are inserted into an entry field for execution (e.g. to dump the database contents to the attacker). SQL injection must exploit a security vulnerability in an application's software, for example, when user input is either incorrectly filtered for string literal escape characters embedded in SQL statements or user input is not strongly typed and unexpectedly executed. SQL injection is mostly known as an attack vector for websites but can be used to attack any type of SQL database...

They had 16 years to fix it ...

djsmiley2k

@Burgi So those yearly pen tests etc...

@DavidPostill Herein lies the problem, I bet they don't think of themselves as any kind of 'web facing' company, even as an 'ISP'

Quico Llinares Llorens

Codeblocks as editor, and some compilers

NULL

Ok! Well to be honest I am not as familar with arp as about MAC spoofing and routers etc...whats arp spoofing?

Guitar Shoe Dave

Actually I have a busy day today.

I would assume arp spoofing is spoofing other peoples mac addresses on a network to attempt to evesdrop packets.

NULL

oh ok yeah

Well does anybody no about what I posted above? :

Family Safety this time. I reinstalled Windows and it works like a charm except for Family Safety. Web Filtering is not working...I said only allow sites on allow list and use that list only but I can still go to any site on the account...any ideas?

Guitar Shoe Dave

13:32

But arp poisioning is essentially a race condition when a router sends a broadcast across the network asking who owns a particular local address and expects a mac address response and you have a 2 machine's respond but you're hopeful that the drone machine answers first.

Burgi

ooooh.... horizontal fracking.... plays smoooooth jazz and turns on the soft focus

NULL

what?

Guitar Shoe Dave

because the router has to know which mac address it needs to rebuild the packet to send the packet to.

NULL

Yeah but so what I got last time we talked about this was that that was impossible b/c packets are encrypted

you would have to know the key to unencrypt packets?

Guitar Shoe Dave

hmm not sure

only the data portion is encrypted

not the actual headers

ie: mac / src, dest, / src port / dest port / seq num / MSS, etc.

NULL

13:36

Oh right

Have you ever tried cracking WPA handshakes?

Guitar Shoe Dave

noper

I got me one finally but I have tried at least 10 million paswords via dicts and still haven't go it

A lot of mobile hotspots still use WEP (quite funny)

So maybe you could explain this to me:

Guitar Shoe Dave

Possibly, i donno.. Whats the question

NULL

Why can I not get MAC of already connected client, spoof it on my PC and connect to router...router wouldn't know the difference...I could deauth the other client if needed...but it dont work

And I cant find why

Guitar Shoe Dave

You can spoof it, but if its not a bound interface the packet will be ignored when its sent to you by the nic.

DavidPostill

13:42

@QuicoLlinaresLlorens Programmer depends on what kind of programmer. A web developer for example would need a web server and may a database ...

NULL

I know but how does it know its not bound since it cant tell diff between one that is already bound?

Guitar Shoe Dave

remember, before we had switches and used hubs all machines would recieve packets, and nics that werent intended to recieve certain packets would ignore the traffic because it wasnt bound for them ( lots of broadcast traffic )

DavidPostill

@GuitarShoeDave See my answer

1

A: How does ARP Poisoning work if the IP address is wrong?

How does ARP Poisoning work if the IP address is wrong? It's normally called ARP Spoofing, but also referred to as ARP Poison Routing (APR) or ARP Cache Poisoning. ARP Poisoning doesn't change the IP destination in the table so why does spoofing the MAC under another IP address help to redir...

Guitar Shoe Dave

You should still be able to see the traffic if your interface is set to promiscuous mode

@DavidPostill: been quite familiar with arp posioning for about 15 years or so.

Thanks though

NULL

@DavidPostill So if you got ARP Poisoning working you could use the victims router right or only intercept trafic?

Guitar Shoe Dave

@PotatoCat Hm. Google Pixel. Compared to the S7, it's... kinda meh. Especially since it's actually priced higher, almost a year later.

@GuitarShoeDave You said "I would assume arp spoofing is spoofing other peoples mac addresses on a network to attempt to evesdrop packets." My answer covers that as well :)

@NULL "The attacker may choose to inspect the packets (spying), while forwarding the traffic to the actual default gateway to avoid discovery, modify the data before forwarding it (man-in-the-middle attack), or launch a denial-of-service attack by causing some or all of the packets on the network to be dropped."

"forwarding the traffic" is quite common if you're gunna be doing any arp posioning. Ideally thats what you would only be doing with arp posioning.
