I came here to write this same comment. I didn't know you could do this to passwd

You should actually check out OALabs, this very kind guy with his community is DIE HARD. His core business is malware analysis and reverse engineering, but he knows tons of stuff and all newest funniest memes. You wont regret it

@@boogieman97 what for real? I didn't know about him. Let me check it out. Thanks for the info

@@MygenteTV yes OALabs is very underestimated!!! But a real 'hidden' gem

@@boogieman97 thanks

All of my videos are 1000% perfect and I make no mistakes at all, ever.

@@_JohnHammond you r greatest of all time

This is not related to any buffer overflow or whatsoever, this is just the stdin buffer that spits back to stdout, nothing fancy. This most like a too large file to process for cat into memory. To me it sounds like a failover action, which is quite normal behavior

Zip up the fole with password infected (if you can) and send it to the malware submission link in the description!

There's a lot of confusion on the internet about this but from the bash man pages, "IFS The Internal Field Separator that is used for word splitting after expansion and to split lines into words with the read builtin command. The default value is ``''." You can check this by going `man bash` then searching for IFS.

I do hope that it rings true that I have not made any courses, and all of my content remains free and freely accessible. I do sponsored videos and run ads so I can continue this for the future, but at its core, my content is free. :)

@@_JohnHammond why do you need sponsors who pay you thousands of dollars to keep making the videos? I could make the same kind of videos without having to sign advertising contracts with third parties. I even know some who do exactly that after their regular work without product placement. I don't mean to attack you or anyone else in this scene, I just want to understand. I would look forward to an answer. if it is greed I would understand the answer too.

@@ahr0cdovlzk3my1lahqtbmftdw7 I wouldn't say that I "need" sponsors in order to keep making videos-- I would still be making videos without them, and the channel has been active and producing content for the first whole 10 years of its existence without any sponsored revenue. I certainly know other creators that aren't sponsored just as well, and I'd still encourage anyone to make videos with or without sponsorship. It's all about the passion and love of learning. Even without revenue, I would still be making videos. So I'd ask back at you, why do you do what you love to do? Why do you make money? Support friends and family and yourself? If you can be paid to keep doing what you love to do, why not embrace that opportunity, and do what you can to provide for your loved ones AND fulfill your passions at the same time?

@@_JohnHammond excellent response!

He is getting the input from the user and then removing spaces, tabs and newlines and then passing that to subprocess.Popen(), which will just run any commands you give it, and then it returns the stderr and stdout to the user connecting to the service.

Super appreciate the feedback, huge thanks! Are there other sound effects that would fit better, or just "don't use any sound effects at all"? And what other "stuff" do you mean by "stuff"? I can certainly try to put something more formal together on subprocess Popen!

​@@_JohnHammond "Stuff" was referring to the visual effects that accompany the sound effects, and the random text and images that pop up on screen sometimes. Like the X that goes with the buzzer sound or the random wastebasket emoji and one liner jokes in text that visually popped up. For the content presented I would prefer no sound effects, because I feel like they don't add anything useful (or even entertaining in my opinion) to the video. I think sound effects should be used when appropriate, and sound effects like that ROBLOX "oof" sound shouldn't be forced into a video that seems to be more focused on education than entertainment. Educational content should probably be optimized for educational value rather than entertainment value! Audiovisual effects are probably best used for emphasis, so if, for example, you add an infobox when presenting a bit of information, you could add a sound effect for that infobox appearing (and disappearing) to give it some emphasis and make it feel less empty (this is why people tend to play "woosh" sound effects when using fly-in text, for example) As an example for such an infobox, you could use one to explain the command line flags you use in the recording for common commands like nc and nmap, so people who know how it works can look past it and just watch the video continue, while the people who don't can read the relevant information. Such an info box could also be made full screen, which is best accompanied by voice over in my opinion - you could explain something like normal in the live recording, and then you could add a temporary full screen visual explanation of what you are talking about so people don't stare at a static command line while you talk - this should also help with keeping up video engagement. (So it might be worth trying out- even outside of the ad reads where you already do something similar) I think that's enough rambling from me, I ended up going on for too long about this infobox while that was actually supposed to be about the sound effects... Apologies for the huge text dump 😅

@@centdemeern1 Nothing to apologize for, this is great constructive criticism -- huge thanks! We'll think more on sound effects or visual effects and try to find a better balance on educational vs. entertaining. Very good to know when we miss the mark, though, and can course-correct. Thanks again!!

@@centdemeern1 Woo hold up! relax, as far as you are getting the whole content right, be chill and appreciate...Shouldn't you be focusing on the content or something like that rather than minute details yet the content is top notch.

@@ewaat well I’ve been watching John’s videos for a while and he never had these sound effects, they suddenly got added

Which noise?

@@nordgaren2358 The one in the introduction.

@@aidancollins1591 you mean intro music?

@@nordgaren2358 I wouldn't refer to that as music, but yes. Just him talking would suffice.
