Seriously? Really? How is this even a thought process where you do not correlate cybersecurity with computer science or computers in general? its like saying no, you cannot get this Registered Nurse certification because your MEDSCHOOL DEGREE ON WHATEVER NEUROLOGY IS NOT RELATED TO THE MEDICAL FIELD LIKE WTF... so done, looking forward for this party this weekend, and oh yeah some random dude died and everyone is phoning me with some gruesome video of a guy getting shot, I do not like watching those videos.

Found this absolute masterpiece today:

This is why the internet was created. Credits to Rob

After my second attempt I finally passed the OSCP, next CISSP!

I was still aware of the AD being hard, but since even before my first attempt I cut through AD so easily I knew

the standalone machines were going to kill me, so before my second attempt I practiced nonstop standalone, which

at some point I realized that it was more of understanding the curve balls and avoiding them, after all, is a

pentest about misconfigurations!!!
