Mob Hacking Advent of Cyber

Today's (Dec 23rd, 2025) chat will be some pair hacking on Try Hack Me's Advent of Cyber. I will go through getting the key for side quest 1. Selfishly, I need the final step, I think, to get the key for side quest one, and I'm hoping others can help me.

Ensemble Hacking on PicoCTF

Join the Weekly Dev Chat on Jan 28th, 2025 for some ensemble hacking on the PicoCTF platform. The goal is to solve one problem, but if things go well, maybe we can solve a couple. Like previous ensemble sessions, I will share my screen and get suggestions from you, the ensemble, on how to solve the problem.

Everyone and anyone are welcome to join as long as you are kind, supportive, and respectful of others. Learn how to join the chat, and other useful information, here.

P.S. - I love the retro feel of the AI generated image for today's chat.
