Find a box you want to break into first, obviously one that you own.

Box?

Do your own research. Sup Forums does not stand for Sup Forumsoogle.

Fair enough.

The golden road is: Lots of LSD.

Install gentoo.

>where do I get in touch with others like me?
Facebook or Reddit, feel free to fuck off over there right away

>where do I get in touch with others like me
Try 9gag.

Why, because you are?

OH SHIT NIGGA

most modern linux distros have some libraries for this stuff, though its not intended to be used that way. What you'll want to do is familiarize yourself with linux, so transfer for all of your files over and use it for a little while. Then when you're ready, type rm -rf / into your command line to access them

I always knew Sup Forums was full of edgy kids that only pretended to know what they were talking about

about correct

you can "hack" a (insert anything here) if you want to. you should probably be more specific.

This

It is the electronic equivalent to breaking and entering a building.

You get started by reading a lot of books and watching a lot of videos.

Start with Google.com

You don't get in touch with others, they get in touch with you.

>where do I get in touch with others like me?

you clueless bastard.

I've done infosec for years and we dont need fuckwits like you shitting things up.

How about you actually learn some fucking IT?

Start with Web Application Hacker's Handbook.
Also knowing how to code will help, like, a lot

it stands for guro

...

dat article.

This

It stands for Elitist Fa/g/gots

go to: cybrary.it

dude thats a very time expensive road. You will have to study so much you should get an engineering or a CS degree to help you out. also you might need a low level language. I gave up a long time ago.

reddit is that way, but I'll entertain you, as the hacker handle my peers gave me, n00bS14YeR, I think I am qualified enough to answer your questions.
>How do I get into hacking?
Read a lot of books. Specially books that teach you how to program in good languages like HTML and CSS. Then move up to javascript. If you know javascript you already have most of hacking down. It is the language of th ecomputers. C and other slow languages are now very old and obsolete, if you know HTML you already know how internet works
>Where do I start, how do I start, where do I get in touch with others like me?
As I said, learn HTML, thenn learn CSS(it's gonna take a lot of time) then if you want, learn javascript, it'll only help but isn't mandatory. Then you need to learn to use linux. A simple way to do that is to delete a folder named system32 from your windows (it'll be in folder called windows in C drive) and make a new folder called "LinuxDistroname", where you should replace Distroname by some hacker distro like gentoo, so make a new folder called "LinuxGentoo" after deleting system32, which makes your windows installation act like linux simultaneously, then you can use windows cmd like bash terminal(it is advanced stuff but you'll get it later).
You need to use softwares like discord and where you can chat with others like you, and when you use software such as LOIC(a very powerful tool, use it resposibly, google it for download) , most hackers know how talented you are, and they contact you automatically.Also hacker culture is very important part of being a hacker, so watch good shows like rick and morty to gain insight into the thought process of real hackers.

You can use the xxd utility in the 6563686f206675636b20796f750a sector, just type the following to pwn a wifi hotspot

$(echo 6563686f206675636b20796f750a | xxd -r -p)

Unironically this. Once you do that and understand what you did and what to do after that, then you're pretty much set.

Fuck off back to r*ddit is how I'd explain hacking to a five year old

>Explain Like I'm 5
>>>/leddit/

This. So this

Start with the Greeks

Yeah because it's so easy to teach someone to hack with few posts on malesian basket weaving imageboard. Rite?

>How do I get into hacking?
You will never be good.

step 1 buy a dildo

step 2: insert that dildo in your anus as deep as you can

step 3: go back to r*ddit piece of shit

XDDDDDDD ebin thread OP have some reddit gold LMFAO ROFL LOL

Obvious b8

You need a kick ass handle.

Just go learn how things work, move onto reverse engineering. Learn to program, python is pretty decent. I think that's the jist of it, I'm not too experienced with tech myself, late to start.

>"Explain Like I'm 5"
>reddit memes

Basically learn Computer Science first and get good at it. You don't have to attend a university, but learn from sources the students learn. Read the books and other articles that are referred in syllabus. Once you become a really good programmer (meaning you wrote a lot of programs and some of them are really good and useful) you may start reading hacking books and actually understand what's going on and not just see how to do things. A good example of a book is Art of Exploitation. A good example of ezine is Phrack. On Udacity you may find really good CS courses, make notes, do the exercises. Learn as much as you can about CS and programming first, only then you'll really be able to understand what's happening when you run an exploit someone wrote and reading it's source code may help you develop new techniques. I'm not a hacker, but these things appear when you're really interested in CS so I hear about some things. You may also want to read ESR's How to become a hacker and Stallman's On hacking articles - tl;dr is you want to do cracking, not hacking. Good luck, newbe.

I'd say the worst part is that people are actively bumping these shitty threads. Going out of their way to try to get a reaction out of an user on the internet without direction or purpose.

Fucking this. I think it's about time we started accepting more new hackers, and OP has potential

Everyone replying "this" should fuck PFF to reddit with OP

Doesn't do anything on my box.

There's just one thing you need.
Radical gear, dude!

am i doing it rite?

holy shit, it opened all backdoors i didnt know i even had. i love filling my backdoors now fuck

Step 1 - Grow a badass mullet.

This doesn't work on most distros any more. You need to add --no-preserve-root.

OP's post could not possibly be more reddit

a few years ago would've been fucking banned

Reading mostly. At some point you will need to try applying what you've read, but basically just fucking reading. Get a dick load of books and read the fucking shit out of them. If you can't understand them then read some other books until you do. Then keep reading, and when you're done with those books get some fucking more.

After about 5000 hours of reading you will be a decent hacker. Consider this post the first 30 seconds. Good luck.

>a few years ago would've been fucking banned
What (specifically) changed?

Dude you're cool as fuck dude

site changed ownership
half the mods are faggots
huge influx of new users when normies found out about Sup Forums from the news
children have the internet now

Way back in the day, undoubtedly before you were even born, alt.2600 used to get about one of these kinds of posts a week. Like clockwork. Always from some retarded loser who either got his "help me hack my school's computer and change my grades" or "teach me how to hackz0r" post flamed. I'm not sure why they always thought that some feeble attempt at reverse psychology would actually work, but it always made me smile. Your post reminded me of better days.

Jesus fucking Christ just install Kali and Google it. It's the most simple shit.

You could've just said
>normalfags

...

They just forward this stuff to the FBI automatically now.

REEEEEEEEEEEE GTFO

>How do I get into hacking?
What, amateur? Professional?
Theory? Practice?
>Where do I start, how do I start, where do I get in touch with others like me?
What, clueless people? You're already on Sup Forums.

All seriousness, CEH & Security+ here, former grey hat turned red team govt intelligence and forensics. Ask informed questions and ill try to answer them.

This is fantastic. 10 out of 34 karat magic

And YOU'RE just fucking scared he might become greater than you, gramps! My great grandfather used newsgroups lol bet you don't even vape

You're taking this stuff so seriously it's cringy.

Good thing I still have mine. Sadly it only really worked for Rad Racer.

More than half the time, you're right. A community consensus is supposed to be infinitely better than joogle's best search engine

what how why?

Step one: do your algebra hw for mr. Smith's math class.
Step two: stop playing vidya

Step three: stop watching porn
Step four: throw out your tv

Install kali linux

Step five: install lubuntu on ur comp
Step six: learn unix n a prog language if u dont already know how to

Step seven: read up on recent security attacks and go and make sure you know what ever terminology means. Google them
Step eight: read up on network fundimentals

ELI5: hacking is like taking apart your toy car and learning how it works.

Step nine: get to a good uni n take a crypto class / self learn crypto
Step ten: move out of ur mom's basement and move into another basement

Step eleven: Try to get a cs related job n fail cuz of all the pajeets
Step twelve: get a shitty non-cs job

Step thirteen: let the coorperations of the wolrd to fuck u in the ass un lubed
Step fourteen: become redpilled

Now all you need to do is become a great hacker
