I have an older laptop with a 32-bit processor and found that TinyCoreLinux runs well on it. It has its own package manager that was easy to learn. This distro can be handy in these niche situations.

I went to a restaurant and they asked "How we doing?". And I said "I don't know. I'm doing well, but I'm not sure how you are doing."

Reminds me of an old calculator trick: Pick an integer between 1 and 9. Multiple it by 9. Take that number and multiply it by 12345679. (Skip the 8) >>> 3 * 9 27 >>> 12345679 * 27 333333333 This all works because: >&g

Neat to see this done by hand! It helps demystify the magic behind git commands. If you like this, I also recommend "Write Yourself a Git", where you build a minimal git implementation using python: https://wyag.thb.lt

Initially, I used `uv tool run <name>`, but later discovered `uv tool install <name>`. The `install` command downloads dependencies once and caches them for future use. It is similar to how `pipx install <name>` works. e

I'm also curious if this functionality is possible to achieve through browser configuration. Alternatively, a browser extension could potentially provide a helpful solution. I suspect the implementation may vary on a case-by-case basis

I enjoyed participating in Octojam (the CHIP-8 game jam) in previous years and sad to see it come to an end. Working with CHIP-8 inspired me to a CHIP-8 emulator which was a great learning experience.

Chisel is a handy red-team tool. I learned about it training for the OSCP (Offsec Certified Professional). It comes in handy under certain situations. Another tool I recommend is Ligolo-ng [1]. You set up a network interface and use &quo

I was looking for a lightweight OS to run on old Asus Eee PC 1005 HA, which uses a 32-bit Intel Atom N270 processor. I installed Void Linux ( https://voidlinux.org/ ). I may give DSL 2024 a try and see how it compares.

Love it! I like seeing Pac-man put into strange scenarios. I made a slightly similar (1.5d?) game for the CHIP-8. Pacman can only go left and right, but the ghosts fall from the sky. https://veganjay.itch.io/falling-ghosts

I learned about chisel in PEN-200 / preparing for the OSCP. Then I learned about, Ligolo-ng [1] which is a game-changer. I highly recommend checking it out. It is most applicable to a penetration test. It uses TLS so I'm not su

This was a lot of fun. Thanks for making and sharing. The "find" command would be very helpful for the last step (to get the passcode). I found that you can do "ls 0/0/0/0 0/0/0/1 ..." So I

I'm a little confused as to running the Suricata, Zeek and the Elasticsearch stack on Kali. I think of these tools run on a server, rather than a desktop. And it seems like SecurityOnion scratches this niche. I do like the idea of Ka

Breathing through my mouth. I trained myself to breathe through my nose during the day. And at night, I put a little piece of tape on my mouth to make sure I breathe through my nose.

I have burned a lot of time thinking a host was down only to find it blocks ICMP echo (ping). As a follow-up to a ping fail, I check to see if a known port is open using nmap. gist: https://gist.github.com/veganjay/6b90
