I know it's not what you're looking for, but it's on the topic of post-exploitation.

poet is a cool python-based post-exploitation tool with self destruct capabilities. I've been using it for another assignment and its keep-alive-and-quietly-sleep functionality is pretty useful.

Project is kind of old and runs into some comp. issues but it takes like 5 minutes to fix.

Ah probably because you're on mobile. If you request desktop site, or submit through the reddit or Alien blue apps you should be good!

JonLuca · 2017-02-19T21:29:24+00:00

On the right side of the screen there should be a button that says "Submit a Link" - you can submit with a title through there!

You signed up exactly one year after him! What a coincidence.

JonLuca · 2017-02-14T16:10:19+00:00

Always the best feeling when you get that first round of approvals, knowing you're set for flying for another 6 months haha

JonLuca · 2017-02-14T16:05:04+00:00

6 inquiries in 6 months

Not that new, it's been around for a while

JonLuca · 2017-02-12T04:25:27+00:00

January 7th, actually - pretty sure it was an Askreddit or /r/PersonalFinance link

JonLuca · 2017-02-12T04:23:41+00:00

It's more about it being a rule. There's another subreddit that has that same rule and it works really, really well - it relies on others to shame that person until they delete their comment.

basically if someone mentions the subreddit other people that know that subreddit will comment/PM saying delete it, edit it, redact it, etc.

It's not ideal (I'm still of the camp of going fully private) but it's a step. If you see that spike earlier in the month it's from a link from an askreddit thread :/

JonLuca · 2017-02-12T04:04:06+00:00

/r/churning subscriber growth

And by day

Thought you guys would find it interesting. Too much growth :(

Might be worth it for the mods to implement a "Don't talk about /r/churning outside of /r/churning" - a good middle ground for the people that want to make it private.

Does anyone know how to redeem Disney Reward Dollars for cash?

If I upgrade my card to the premier could I use those dollars for airline travel and then downgrade the card again before paying the AF?

I really don't want to keep $100 in Disney Rewards.

Open terminal and type

cd /var/log

mkdir apt

You might have to chmod 755 apt as well, but only do that if the above doesn't work.

JonLuca · 2017-02-05T13:54:01+00:00

Just a small point but you can get 6x JetBlue points instead of 3x on Amazon.

Just buy an Amazon gift card for the exact amount in your cart first. You'll receive 3x the points for that, then purchase your items with that gift card (another 3x). Make sure it's not "Reload Your Balance", though - it has to be an E-Gift card, sent to yourself, which you then redeem.

JonLuca · 2017-02-01T18:32:54+00:00

Yeah same. I gave my friend the free TSA Precheck I got for Jetblue Mosaic as I already had GE from my Plat. He's not really into churning and thinks I'm going to ruin my credit score but he appreciates the free stuff haha.

JonLuca · 2017-02-01T17:48:23+00:00

I'm still in college, so that's the reaction I got from my film major friends.

I knew I should've targeted my computer science friends first - they all immediately loved it!

JonLuca · 2017-02-01T17:31:33+00:00

Until recently churning was a solo hobby for me - tried to get a few friends into it a while ago, but they were all too hesitant. About two weeks ago I introduce /r/churning to a few school friends, and now it's a daily topic. Set up a dedicated slack channel to talk about it and now we all share deals/talk about churning. Plus getting a bunch of referrals in, which is great.

If you're young, I highly recommend getting your friends into this. The biggest barrier to traveling with my friends is that they can't afford the places I go to, but with churning we can all stay somewhere like the Park Hyatt 5th Ave. for free!

The Reddit Community Repo is messed up, remove that.

Then you have to go to /var/mobile/Library/caches/com.saurik.Cydia/ and delete everything inside the lists folder. Then delete srcpackagecache.bin and packagecache.bin.

That should fix it

JonLuca · 2017-01-24T03:27:04+00:00

The problem is that there are people that genuinely like Marvel Studios that much. And even then, not really. We do have a rule against spam, but I wouldn't count this as spam. More like a shitpost, or dumbpost.

JonLuca · 2017-01-23T19:06:37+00:00

Nothing AFAIK, it didn't break any of our rules so it's still at the top of /r/marvelstudios.

JonLuca · 2017-01-19T21:13:43+00:00

Please don't haha
