So...you know that PWK update everyone's been asking for? IT'S HERE!

We've overhauled the prep course for the OSCP exam, adding more than 2x the content and 33% more lab machines. Get info plus FAQs in this blog post: https://t.co/Q9k67b81y5

OSCP tip of the day: If /etc/passwd is writable, you can just add a passwordless root account by echoing an extra line to it, using root's UID and GID of 0.

echo newusername::0:0:New user:/root:/bin/bash >> /etc/passwd

su - username drops you straight to root.

@chrissanders88 My bun always tears, so I vote Yes!

@TinkerSec @threader_app My mother called me after I retweeted one of your escapades to ask about it. If she's reading it you are definitely reaching just about as far as possible to non-techy people!

Looking forward to starting work at @BezeqBenleumi on Sunday. Thank you for the beautiful bouquet of flowers!

[Michael Kaplan @techrebbe]

@ehmatthes Great idea! He'll love that!

My 11 year old son is bored at home, so he's now writing a Mad Libs game in Python. Thanks @ehmatthes for getting him started!

[Michael Kaplan @techrebbe]

Now that I think about it, Mad Libs is a great way to build from variables to lists and dictionaries. #thinkingoutsidethebox

@TinkerSec If you're ever in Israel, I would love to treat you to a good shawarma! 🌯

@AriTheMC Mazel tov!

[Michael Kaplan @techrebbe]

@ehmatthes He's 11. I started with him last year, but he didn't take to it, but now he's really pumped to learn.

[Michael Kaplan @techrebbe]

@ehmatthes I just saw that you're coming out with a 2nd edition of Python Crash Course. I loved the original when I got it a couple of years ago and now am starting to teach my son. What changes will be in the 2nd edition?

[Michael Kaplan @techrebbe]

@ehmatthes Thanks! And I agree that the 1st edition is great for anyone who wants to start learning right away!

@DabbahAshraf @AmbDermer @TeamSpaceIL Do you really have nothing else to do other than post unrelated nonsense here?
