Sooooo i just bought my first car. by v3traein BMW

[–]stringochars 1 point2 points ago

What price did you pay? That's a low-ass payment for that much car. CPO, right?

I got out of the Marine Corps today, which afforded me a rare opportunity. This is me, standing next to literally all of my worldly possessions. by Monster-_-in pics

BMW, right? Which one?

I'm established with Big 4 consulting, should I start all over with MBB? by stringocharsin consulting

[–]stringochars[S] 0 points1 point ago

Nothing is ever certain. All signs are good, but you never know.

[–]stringochars[S] 0 points1 point ago

I'll just say IT consulting. I'm not interested in grad school.

I was recommended by a friend at the MBB firm. Recruiting screened me, and I got the interview. A friend on the inside was key.

It's only Notre Damn if someone else builds it

So I saw a 1-Series hatchback driving around in SF today. by GnarlyThorin BMW

[–]stringochars 2 points3 points ago

What I would do for a M135 3-door...

Perhaps the whole 1/2 series split may bring us some new choices in a few years.

I gave my M Coupe a bath today: by AnalogDanin BMW

Those really are fantastic cars. I think it's a bit too flashy for my life, but not my taste.

They are a such a steal for the performance.

Can someone enhance that barcode on the Black Keys ticket for me, you know, for science?

N54? N55? I will always wonder.

Robokill 2 - The Hit Dual-Stick Shooter is Now Available for iPad! Play for hours in over 600 rooms of action-packed mayhem, level up to get the best gear and take on more than 25 diabolical new enemies! by wandakein promos

[–]stringochars 0 points1 point ago

Okay, so I got it and played a bunch. As I'm sure you know, it's a bit buggy. The A weapons seem to just disappear from the main screens at times, even though they still show up as equipped in inventory.

Also, the game doesn't seem to save your progress between levels quite like the original did.

This one is also a bit harder than the last one, but that's not a bug, that's a feature!

Oh sweet Jesus, I love Robokill. Played RK1 through on the web, played it through on iPad, and started playing it through again this week. What awesome timing.

I can't wait to try out RK2. Downloading tonight when I get home.

Question for all the pen. testers, security analysts, how do you like your job ? by i_shotin netsec

[–]stringochars 0 points1 point ago

Points well taken. The joy anonymity on the internet is that I'm allowed be brutally honest (with myself). I have a lot of friends in well paid professions, so my benchmarks are probably screwed up.

[–]stringochars 0 points1 point ago

For me it has been less about the training, but more related to getting involved in projects that have a security flavor, but are not sponsored by security. Being a consultant affords me this flexibility.

Well aware that 150k is a lot of money, as others have alluded to. My perspective comes from living in a big city, with friends in law, management consulting, and finance.

[–]stringochars 0 points1 point ago

That's a great point. I was thinking more in terms of general corporate America, with only a middling commitment to security.

Interesting. Industry and location?

Basic stuff. Lots of uses of host based proxies for web app hacking. Different SQL injection methods. Targeting MS SQL on non-standard ports (SQL Ping). Wardialing. How to google for for default passwords. Windows privilege escalation.

Basically 75% of internal pen tests for us came down to MSSQL having bad passwords (or blank for SA) and domain service accounts.

Got lucky. A TA in college told me to go interview with a consulting firm that was recruiting on campus. His exact words: "They will pay you to learn how to hack." Total stroke of luck.

Kept me from becoming a help desk manager or something miserable.

[–]stringochars 5 points6 points ago

This jives with my experience. Security is also a somewhat limited career field, in that corporate full timers in security will not make more than 150k in the states, but I'm sure there are some exceptions.

I think it's been quite fun and interesting for 7 years, but to advance my career I've had to broaden my scope to include things like IT Ops and general infrastructure management.

Niece's computer doesn't connect to the internet. by KuloDiamondin talesfromtechsupport

[–]stringochars -1 points0 points ago

PureText is a handy little free utility that runs in the background. You can set a key combination (e.g. Win+V) to just paste plain text. I love it.

European Delivery Program: can anybody explain why one WOULDN'T want to do it? by mlorin BMW

Because you are a cheap fsck like me, and prefer buying slightly used.

Today, at the security checkpoint, the TSA agent did not accept the USA Passport Card and asked for a second form of picture ID. She said "these don't work here". by honore_ballsacin OperationGrabAss

[–]stringochars 0 points1 point ago

I used my Portsmouth Brewery Royal Pint ID card to fly a month ago when I lost my driver's license. It's completely up to the discretion of the TSA agent.

Deploying ArcSight for a client. Holy crap is it expensive.

Wow, that Ramallah lynching is horrific. I know it's one incident in a long and sad story, but that is really barbaric.
