Fun game. I found had trouble seeing the color contrast, so I modified the connection color by updating the CSS for .root.tile to #aaffff

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 thes…

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 …

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 implementa…

Initially, I used `uv tool run `, but later discovered `uv tool install `. The `install` command downloads dependencies once and caches them for future use. It is similar to how `p…

Nice! Fun game. Similar idea, different interface: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44189814 https://bobsword.com/

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 susp…

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 …

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 L…

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 D…

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 sk…

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 t…

There's also Bask (bash + flask). It's a CTF challenge on day 8 of HackVent (1). It's based off an article on building a bash web server (2). 1. https://hv23.idocker.hacking-lab.co…

Seems like a combination of the Kodak Calendar (1) and Swatch Internet Time (2): 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Fixed_Calendar 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swat…

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 …

To run on Ubuntu 20.04, I had to change the last line of "mario.sh" to: done) | sed -Enf ./mario.sed

Reminds me of this poster: http://www.southendpunk.com/html/damnadv.html "The Damned can now play three chords. The Adverts can play one. Hear all four of them at..."

I first saw this in Sniffing Glue magazine - today I learned it first appeared in Sideburn.

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 Securit…
