It is pretty rad, this is only my first year on the team but some of my teammates have been doing it a couple years now. There's 8 on a team and basically they just put you in a shitty situation that you have to lock down, and then they have a pretend CEO throw bullshit requests at you that you have to complete on a timer while defending against attackers.

They kind of make everything purposefully as difficult as possible, i.e. I am on the linux subteam so they stuck me on the ubuntu machine, which wasn't so bad but they don't give you passwords or anything, you have to break into your own machine before you secure it. They gave my poor friend though the bsd machine which turned out to be running an openbsd version over a decade old, it was apparently so fucked they compiled the entire thing from source. There were also some swiss cheese versions of windows server 2003 and a knoppix box where they destroyed the graphics stack so you had to keep fixing shit as it broke in order to keep the thing running. Crazy stuff.

I can post the debrief if anyone's interested once I make sure there's no personal info anywhere.

because moet people in /g/ pretend to know shit when in reality they dont have the slightest idea. generally it quickly devolves in "muh tinfoil" and "encryption is for criminals" slurs and ad hominem.
Despite of this, there are the exceptional thread here and there that contain actual useful info, even if its not /cyb/ related.

>>59276479
not >>59276459 I never played the original Deus ex, I tried but I did find the keyboard interface too cumbersome. The interface didnt aged well at all. I would like for it to be remade, so people like me would taste all that greatfulness that I had been told about.

I am playing the Shadowrun series. The third one is my least favorite so far. My main gripe is with design of the missions and difficult level balancing. Some missions are super easy while others are extremely frustrating. I also didnt liked the matrix redesign, and I'm playing as a decker! the metal gear "stealth" gameplay is severely affected by the shitty characters controls, Strangely enough I liked the hacking minigames which most people dindt like.

Also there is too much history and lore. It would be nice to ahd that background stories delivered via missions, but sometimes you just found yourself 15-20 minutes reading over details that does not contribute to the main story. Its like a baker just found that sugar is nice and he thinks that adding more and more sugar will make a cake infinitely better.

Really, the third one is like a chore for me, I cannot wait for ot to end.
>>
>>59280075
iirc someone made a mod that HD'd all of deus ex or something. I love hong kong's decking because it's much less RNG and possible to go silent in the minigames if you're good. Shadowrun's decking was always awful even on tabletop and minigames are a better option.

Also the fucking post-endgame expansiony missions are stupid hard. Like holy shit.

Rebind them then.

Of course if you make sweeping remarks about the larger community you're going to draw ire on a personal level, you were already making a broader ad hominem attack. When you make such lazy complaints against a game it's only natural that others will think poorly of you individually. If you're so upset with the quality of discussion of /g/, then trying to dispel valid criticism of your own post by crying "muh ad hominem" having such poor understanding of what it is and when it does and doesn't prevent a valid argument hardly validates your opinion.

>>59280744
You are accussing me of making an ad hominem just by stating some facts, not making personal attacks. You are trying to putting words in my mouth to teach me a lesson, or to make an example, i dont know which one is it.

My complaint is not a lazy one. Let me indulge you with some details then: For a long time I didnt had access to a computer with beefy enough graphics card to run games such as Deus ex (e.g.: I didnt even knew or owned a Vodoo). Many years later I bought it, and I really tried to play the thing to no avail. having tasted more recent approaches to keyboard command layouts I really found Deus Ex's one unpalatable. Its like trying to play, lets say Doom 2016 with the original Quake's kb layout. From Deus Ex days many things have changed and matured, some systems stood the test of time and, again, for me, that layout was not among those. You can argue that I dont like old schemes, but I played games as old as the original Fallout many years later with no problem.
>>
>>59281608
>moet people in /g/ pretend to know shit when in reality they dont have the slightest idea
This comment is pretty clearly a slight against /g/'s users.

Deus Ex's default keybindings didn't age all that badly, at least if you had a mouse. They were just outright shit from the get-go, with shit like reloading and scoping being bound on the right side of the keyboard. But for the most part the functions available are what you can expect in any modern game, you just have to bind them to sane buttons. The only thing that's otherwise awkward is that using an item is done in the same way as selecting and using a weapon, but you get used to it fairly quickly once you're actually playing the game, and otherwise you might find it easier to just use the inventory menu to use items.
>>

Is Qubes OS a cyber punk distro lads?

>>59275597
I wonder how secure it'd be to run a web scraper through tor.

I'm abandoning browsing and increasingly adopting scraping. I go to websites I like and reverse engineer their HTML/Javascript, and make my program pull the info for me. This way I pull data directly from the source and am unaffected by any javascript.

I did this so I'd be able to get information without shitty website UIs getting in the way, but I suppose it has security implications as well.
>>
>>59282093
similar situation, disabled entire DOM event system in a userscript and occasionally bypass reactive/bullshit UI stuff in them. Already have most of the 2nd+ party requests blocked from the browser side but 1st party javascript is still haram.
>>
>>59282093
so by doing this revere engieneering you get even the content thats is commonly behind some cumbersome script?

Interesting. If you dont mind me asking, which site was the hardest to scrap using your techniques?

>>59281592
Yes, its a case in which the whole is better than the sum of its parts, The music is amazing, the art is beautifull, the gameplay interesting and easy to get use to. The hardest part is in getting the most efficient combination of powers that convey a synergestic outcome.

Its one of those rare games I felt compelled to get all the achievements, because some were really interesting and somewhat demanding, but once you get a grip of the powers and abilities and how they interact is easy.

Oh and the story while not purely /cyb/ is interesting, but somewhat simplistic.

Having said all that, IMHO is a game worth playing
>>
>>59282226
They're all pretty easy. Normally you just navigate the HTML tree and extract the nodes you wish to consume. The worst that can possibly happen is some obfuscated Javascript that dynamically adds content to the page. These are the sites that break if you disable Javascript.

I just view source and look at what the functions are doing. Usually there's a function that runs on a timer and issues a request for the data. You can also see this happening if you monitor network activity.

Now it's a simple matter of grabbing that URL and making requests directly to it, completely bypassing all that HTML page business. The data will necessarily have to come from there so why not cut out the middleman? You just figure out the structure of the data (it's often JSON) and you're done. Ironically, it makes your scraping job even easier.
>>
>>59282093
>>59282291
Sounds like you could chuck what you've done into a browser extension or similar and rake in that donation money. Allow users to choose a standardised UI to read and use any supported website or something to effect, though I suppose the reader functionality already available in most browsers soft of already does this in a less graceful manner.
>>
>>59282360
Heh. My scraper actually started out as a browser extension. I find the Chromium APIs to be way more comfortable than Node. V8 gains features much faster than Node too. It has things like web workers, which Node desperately needs.

I like the idea of building my own custom UI for websites. It's essentially what mobile apps do anyway: serve as a front end so that you can transfer just data instead of the UI markup and code.

I build these things for myself so if I released my code I'd only target programmers; people who aren't scared of technical concepts. The audience is pretty limited... Plus, it allows me to completely ignore things such as ads. While I think it's hilarious to watch people shit themselves due to their failed business model, I'd rather do it anonymously.

To the other guy, you're not the only professional with a wife that doesn't mind downsizing to what you need.

Is it too late to start in depth learning hacking and infosec now or is it too late like you say the time is now its already here?
>>
>>59296824
just lol

people learn new skills in retirement homes, but since you're asking if it's too late to learn how to hack in the cyberpunk general i'm thinking a cosplay hobby might be more up your alley

i guarantee you that at any time that you achieve mastery in "hacking and infosec", there will be interesting things to do with those skills, and that the retarded hell world we live in will continue this way for at least the remainder of your life time

seconding the Kriss Vector however i feel its closer to scifi than cyberpunk

I love me the AA-12 tho, its not really quite cyberpunk but it could fit the theme. slap a drummag, mod it a bit, you could have a revolving drum with loads of custom shells for all sorts of shit, like:

gummy tracker
shoot usb keys into computers, screens and faces
bees
napalm
gel rounds for "Non lethal"
regular buckshot, now in full auto flavor!

etc
>>
>>59297457
I know Linux very well, I can do basic stuff in C, and very simple stuff in nasm.
But whenever I browse around hacking places I barely know what they are talking about, can barely keep up, and feel very inferior.
I feel like if I tried to start to git really gud now I'm too late to join now and would never be able to catch up with the way it's moving now so fast in this cyberpunk future.

our present is more technologically dystopian, more observed, controlled, driven by corporate interest and shadowy government agencies, than any work of cyberpunk that isn't Dune-tier full sci-fi futuristic.

And there's none of the noir.

Im Working on a special keyboard for typing on-the-go while standing and even walking, meant to replace thumb typing.
ATM it looks like nunchucks and the keycaps are 1/4 the size. Each fingertip lays in between 4 keys and you press them by rocking left or right up down kinda like a d-pad for each finger because lifting fingers off a keyboard makes you lose grip. Already experimented learning to touch type with it with good results, just need to tweak keyboard layout and ergonomics so my pinky isn't in any discomfort. Its kinda like playing a guitar

Because you are the only one hiding face in the crowd.

Surveillance systems have walking posture recognition, it can not be altered so easy, not without exoskeletons of some kind.
>>
>>59310012
Placebo.
If an attacker has access to your laptop, that allows him to watch you and to hear you, he can plant a screen capture malware, RAT, keyloggers, download all your files when they are unencrypted and so on.
Your camera and microphone are the least interesting things on your machine, son. Not to say that a built-in speaker can be turned into a microphone after altering the audio codec drivers of firmware.

>>
>>59308811
Yes, like, it maybe sound like I'm exagerating, but we went from computers filling a whole room, to have a computer in our pockets, in less than 50 iirc (I'm bad at dates).

The surveillance, the opression (not talking about SJW shit) etc etc. Just because we lack a e s t h e t i c s doesn't mean we're not deep balls on it.
>>
>>59312882
The real problem is 90% of the population don't care; there's so many distractions in the world. Why worry about ever expanding surveillance and government power when there's so many cool video games to play. So many awesome new movies to watch. So many fun new apps to try.

>>
>>59313008
I think that's only the half-part of the issue. Like, I believe sometimes that people think "well, I can do nothing". But not in a edgy-teenage-fuck-ecorp way. More like "I know nothing lol". There's also the "nothing to hide" real people though, which if they don't usually use it against "you should be concerned" tips of ours, they think they "safe".

The consumism is like the coupe de grace, what closes all the real issues and like you say, it also distracts them to just be concerned.
>>
>>59313041
>"I know nothing lol"
Well, it's sort of true if you think about it.
Do you think you would know if there were nanobots floating in your bloodstream?
>>
>>59313226
Yes, but you know that's not the point. Or at least was not the point I was trying to make.

People think checking your smartphone standard security measurementsis hard and complex, beside that "probably need to invest time and energy".

I mean that they don't even know what the fuck they have in their smartphones, and I'm not a smartass, but idk, at least I try to check or recognize what security shit could I need on my phone.

I think it was very much there already back in the mid 80's. After all SF is really about the today in a different frame. We had the Reagan / Thatcher combo plus cold war remnants and societal depressions was big. That snowballed with the financial collapse in 1987 where the job market imploded overnight. It took nearly 10 years before the general job market was back.

Compare to Lehman Brothers collapsing in 2008 and we are still not fully recovered. This time though the robots might move in big time before the job market recovers.

Society isn't cyberpunk right now. At least not majorly like in every city. It's almost a dystopian asshole though. We just need the aesthetic and then we can call it a proper cyberpunk, but that will almost certainly never happen until after we're dead because people aren't willing to change existing infrastructure and architecture all the time.

>>59343048
>people aren't willing to change existing infrastructure and architecture all the time.
Can we at least get rid of the sun and make it rain all the time?
>>
>>59343048
I don't think a cyberpunk city would never have that kind of aesthetic. I was just talking about this in the other thread. A lot of those buildings in my city are cyberpunk as fuck like if I walk a few miles I can see a few corporate buildings sticking out of the horizon. A lot of all those were built in response to the other corporations waving their dicks about who has more money to build it bigger trying to one up the last. A cyberpunk city that was really advanced would probably never get more than 2 really futuristic looking buildings like you'd have teipei 101 or the burj khalifa in one city, then potentially a rival building in size built near it in the same city and the two would be in a rivalry to the death even if it was detrimental to both of them and just weakened their city limiting social mobility weakening their area. Corporations have a limit to their potential revenue and how much they can diversify before eliminating competition so they don't lose out on profits is more profitable. The people that own those buildings are isolated from the worse effects and can afford the best of things running poorly so they have no idea what's happening on the ground in any real sense, it's how corporations end up cartoonishly evil like building a doom laser that would destroy the earth for profit even if they have no where else to go but earth.

Near the marina where I live we have these "clusters" of really high tech buildings from the top tier corporations, it always gave me a cyberpunk-ish vibe.

I'll try to get a real picture next week, there are many more buildings being built right now and the place is full of massive cranes and shit.

Another one. They're quite massive irl and they're in the middle of fucking nowhere, so they really stand out.

Thos two yellow cranes at the right are from the original port, circa 1900. This is where immigrants arrived and populated the country from, there are tons of really old buildings retrofitted with high tech stuff inside. Quite cool.

pretty much bro. you can do it too. its like being a retrotech dominitrix, you sell them the fantasy of being some kind of ZEROCOOL/ACIDBURN L33t H@xx0R fantasy.

I bet you could sell course seats for RaspberryPI projects at a makerspace selling them that fantasy. I want to get a pallet of old thinkpads and put Mint or debian on them, and sell them at minimum $150 profit. Or if I can get a pallet of Macbooks and ripoff wannabe beat makers, and film makers.

shouldnt be hard really.

Not that I know of. It is even hard to imagine there would be one. After all patches are used by armed forces all over the world to engineer cohesion, identity and a differentiation over others.

Cyberpunk is very far from that and more about an incoherent future which is now our everyday life. Much of the cyberpunk literature is about people with a strong desire to stay under the radar and patches would be completely at odds with a low profile.

sure thing, i was just curious if the /cyb/-community uses a common (insider)symbol like hacker do.

I researched because I wasn't sure if I was thinking in Shenzhen, and I was right. The city I wanted to say was Chongqing. I read long time ago about Tim Franco, who went to do some pics. Here's his website.

I mentioned Tsukuba earlier and someone asked why that was a cyberpunk place, just as the thread died.

Tsukuba is the science capital of Japan, where they research on everything from microelectronics to fusion power. It is probably the city in Japan with the highest densities of foreigners, making it rather special. The city is new, made from the ground up after the World Exhibition in the 80's so it is ultra modern.

lainchan suffers from the problem a lot of smaller imageboards do, where they proliferate a fuckton of boards for things that should just be threads. I understand the boards with atypical formatting, but having separate boards for science, tech, diy, random, etc. just fractures the discussion too much.

I don't feel like a fuck up, but I am of pretty low birth with an interest in tech. Not interested in helping out corps. I've seen enough of people getting exponentially rich off people under them.

same here. considered a "normie" by having a job and a family, but i've never fitted into the normie society. i also have a working class background.
>>
>>59362723
>>59362166
I think most of us can be considered "normie" by the life we tried/choose/had been forced to follow, imo.

But I guess our interests in tech and our research in random (or not that random) articles made us take a different critical view of society and people and that's why I think we don't fit (from 0% to 100%)

Am I saying something too obvious?

>>59362751
It almost seems like normie is attributed to any well adjusted person like raijin is in moon speak. Like with anything, I think you can see the cracks if you dig deep enough into anyone. In the hustle, bustle, constant stimulation, and constant noise in life; it's a seemingly obvious statement that doesn't get considered.

Yes, but I don't see the point of your post. I consider normie whatever person that has actualy or even normal targets in life.

>how do I into cyberpunk?
You start by reading. A lot.
- Cheap Truth (the zine)
- everything by Wm Gibson, starting with the Burning Chrome collection and then Sprawl trilogy
- most of what Bruce Sterling, John Shirley et. al wrote
- Shockwave Rider, and Last Stand on Zanzibar
- Tiger, Tiger
- most of the early writings of Neal Stephenson
- the Altered Carbon series (if you can stomach the blood bath)

Manga:
- Gunnm
- GitS
- Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou (stealthily cyberpunk - very slow, very good)

Movies
- Blade Runner
- Tetsuo the Iron Man and others from that collective (if you can stomach the gore)


Tech nonfiction, read up on topics such as
- network and communications, including wireline and RF
- RF and optics including stealth, and read the radio primer paste at http://pastebin.com/9uYXMhVm
- bio including gene tech, CRISPS/Cas9 is about to blow the roof off society

How society works
- Cargo Cult Science by Feynman
- introductory organizational theory (both will tell you how messed up society and human really is)

being a "ghost" in the digital age is one of my main goals. michael bazzelle's "the complete privacy & security desk reference" is pretty helpful. if you want to post here via vpn, get a small one. i currently use the beta version of protonvpn and since it's a closed beta i have no problems with bans at all (since only paying protonmail-users are invited right now).

>Yes, but I don't see the point of your post. I consider normie whatever person that has actualy or even normal targets in life.
>targets
usually i classify someone as a normie when he or she appears to be a functioning part in society. i've met some daylight normies who where moonlightning in some ways, i'm the cyberpunk one and i guess many non-neet-cyb's here are the same.
>>
>>59363646
Yeah, but I don't think "appears normie" means normie.

I think normies are people who has, well, you know, now that kind of side that you would say "lol wut". It is hard to describe for me, but having secret/issues doesn't make you non-normie.

Although, normies are who doesn't have to fight to fit, for example.
>>
>>59363271
Those are some good recs. Should definitely be saved in a paste.

OP? How's compiling going? We past 310, time for a new thread. Which is pretty good going really.
