Notes

Native English speakers are the only people who speak their first language like it’s their second language.

I’ve been working on a small application that does the same thing as my web tool, which is to convert RiseupVPN data from their servers into OpenVPN profiles which can be used with any OpenVPN client.

It’s written in Pascal under the Lazarus IDE and designed to run both on modern OSes (Windows 11/10, macOS, Linux) as well as Windows 2000, XP and Windows 7 32bit. I’ll release the macOS and Mac OS X binaries later.

Have fun with it.

I was recently listening to Coolio’s hit single “Gangsta’s Paradise”, and while listening to the single, I interpreted that the eponymous paradise Coolio describes is entirely ironic. But I couldn’t help but wonder if a gangsta’s paradise does exist and what would it look like? Is it watched over by dead gangsta rappers like Tupac or Biggie that act as Gangsta Gods? Is there a Gangsta’s Hell? If so, what actions and morals should a man have to ascend or descend to gangsta heaven or hell after death?

I guess this was a major philosophical debate among rappers during the 90s, you can look into Tupac’s inquiries “If heaven got a ghetto” for further understanding.

What the hell happened to 4chan/g/? I wish a moderator would stick some warning, something along the line of: “Hey, we prostituted this board to advertisers and propagandists. Stay safe.”

Well, as you probably noticed, I’m back. Being away from computers sucked harder than a one-legged Thai hooker. So I’ve heard … I missed watching movies but I did manage to reply to emails, so if you got an email from me during the past few days, consider yourself very lucky!

On the plus side, I got myself an spotless Apple iBook G4, and I’m gonna pimp it, Drake-style.

The real one, not the fake one that’s circulating online. Kinda … underwhelming?

To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.

… your children will be next.

Timeroasting is a relatively new attack vector in Active Directory environments which lets an unauthenticated attacker to query a DC for an NTP Response encrypted with the NT hash of a machine account for every computer in the domain by RID. It is possible due to the ability of abusing the [MS-SNTP] extension designed to prevent AitM attacks on computers’ clock synchronization procedure.

So how can the attacker make use of the NTP Response blobs encrypted with NT hashes of machine accounts that are meant to be derived from random passwords? On the Applicability of the Timeroasting Attack

One of the easiest signs to tell if a game studio is utter trash is by their community managers/glorified discord mods. If they can’t handle the slightest amount of negativity or criticism and start censoring everything, that means the studio is fucked. It’s indicative of the management, run by incompetent, thin-skinned morons.
