Going to finish current project and maybe fix somethings in other code. I have several things going on today as well, but should be interesting.

Been questioning if I should continue with my side projects and coding my tools since I’ve had people that known me for 5+ years be like “You’ve been trying to code malware for the past five years” and it is honestly depressing that with whatever progress I make people either demand more or they just end up asking me things like “What is the purpose?”.

I do this mostly for fun and I want to go back to the community college to go through the programs for networking and security certs that they offer, but last time I tried to go back I went to this online event thing where counselors were supposed to help me and the woman I got acted like my questions were stupid and would sigh and other things.

I start this new welding job on Thursday and my mom seems to trying to push me to do it for god knows how long, and things are just feeling like they are going toward a direction I don’t want. Sure welding seems cool and all, but I still kind of want to get into Red Team except I don’t think I’m good enough and so far my experiences with most folks supposedly in the field seem to just be in the mindset of when they started when the field has changed dramatically.

I’ve tried going the helpdesk route, but it just made me lose my soul, and I was overworked to the point I would get burnt out. I’ve tried writing articles and participate in various communities, but in all honesty, everyone made me feel inadequate and invisible. I used to be part of the 0x00sec community, but the people there were horrible to me, and so I started acting out even though I was a teenager. Tried going to Uni, but the boys there were pretty awful, to the point that one of the professors who talked to my mom the other day said they were shitheads.

Sorry for this rant, but in all honesty I don’t know anymore if I should even bother anymore trying to get into the industry, and I’m starting to really doubt if all I’ve been doing is even that good. My love is in hardware and osint. I’ve been trying to write things I think could help people and sharing what I can, but I feel like it just not good enough.

Community Feedback Request: Weekly Threads

Hello /c/cybersecurity! I wanted to take the temperature on weekly threads (i.e. Mentorship Monday, Training Tuesday, etc…) and get an idea of whether people like these and want to see them continue. I’ve noticed a drop in engagement with the threads and didn’t want to spam the feed if people weren’t interested. If you...

How does that have to do with a data breach other than making yourself look like an idiot?

I wasn’t being rude… your comment was just stupid and I rather be a honest person.

World domination.

On a more serious note… been trying to test various different tools I’ve found or read about and writing necessary scripts/programs.

Yeah. Sat down and made a list of excersises and going to adjust as needed, but think I can do it. Set an alarm as well to remind me to get off my butt.

They’re extremely toxic. For a community that supposedly accepts everyone no matter who they are, they sure contradict themselves often and why I have no respect toward most of the communities. People are awful. It is worse in the Autistic communities. Never felt like I belonged cuz everyone treated me like garbage.

EDIT: The downvotes just proved my point. Yes I will say it loud and proud… the lgbtq+ communities are fucking awful and toxic. Most autistic people I’ve met on the internet have been even worse. Sorry but just because you’re autistic doesn’t give you an excuse to be a dick and I’m both Autistic and bisexual.

“Bigot” isn’t a protected or indeed persecuted group, so you can stop playing the victim.

I forgot. Whenever I say something unpopular like I just did there is always that superior moron who calls me a bigot.

“If people don’t like what I’m saying, it’s proof that I’m right” is literally the kind of thing deranged bigot Alex Jones keeps saying.

I think you should reread the OP and the comment I originally replied to. Also, comparing to what I said to Alex Jones just makes you look pathetic.

You’re pathetic and clearly illiterate and can’t critically think. Your whole reply is just calling me a bigot and comparing me to Alex Jones. How does it feel like to prove my point by name calling and insulting?
