>implying this image is from one and that it hasn't been posted for a while now

sage goes in all fields

I just masturbate

I never said it was one, I just needed an image to make the thread. Is shitposting your hobby?

How do u bypass passwords??

I'd give you some fap material but this is a new computer, nothing on here.

I use Offline NT register editor, most people don't put a password on their BIOS and don't encrypt their hard drives. Go nuts, friend.

Understandable have a nice day

And to you too my good sir.

I work in the AT&T as an internal IT specialist.

I'm paid very well, so I don't risk posting any of the pics I have saved over few years I've worked here.

It's amazing how many people (men included) don't backup & wipe their private data before bringing a phone in for repair, or even to trade in.(excluding those whose phones are brought in not functioning)

Nigger why are you pretending to be me

I Always feel like y'all MF out there go through my phone every time I have to get my phone repaired

This.
That's why I love being knowledgeable in CS. Its like being a real magician.

Quit being a retard and learn how to encrypt your shit.

...

>not pulling hard drives or memory devices before relinquishing a computer
>2017

also comfy

Most people don't know much about computer and their power. They use it only to browse around and do some work.

Meh all I got is nudes and bad memes

They're OUR nudes and bad memes now, how does that make you feel?

Does anyone play blazing tho??

Man, I really fucked up the english language in that post.

Just finished a graveyard shift at my other job, tired as the fuck rn.

searching around trying to find somethin particular on these computers? something illegal? something cp?

We do go through everyone's phone.

The most entertaining is not the photos; it's the web history.

Fuck it as long as we're all fapping then I think I'm ok

I'm not a chimo faggot, its just a hobby. Its like gambling, you'll never know if you're going to win or lose. Just a rush tbh.

forgive my ignorance but what is CS

this is why i always back up my phone then reset it before i let them repair. then i restore from backup when its fixed

This, honestly though I don't care about people seeing my web history. You probably will find some really weird fetishes on there though.

This game looks pay to play, hate those type of games.

Computer science. I recommend you learn a bit if you have free time its not as hard as people may make it seem. Just takes dedication to learn.

Calk cement

Unless you wipe your phone that data could still be recovered. You have to replace all that data with some random input to make it non-recoverable.

cock sucking

Its all good fam, nice to see a fellow tech nerd on Sup Forums.
Also, checked.

Counter Strike

what was your biggest find?

One time I ran into a PC that was previously owned by an HR person who stored all records on it. I'm not a dick though, I did what she failed to do and wiped it. Identity theft is reserved for pajeets and niggers.

I happened upon a hard drive formerly at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs. I couldn't read UFS at the time so I just formatted it, sadly.
I happened upon a ton of disks for a PDP-11 formerly owned by an oilfield services company. Nothing exciting afaik.

what is the scence of this hobby if you whipe data after exploring?

Most hobbies are senseless, sometimes I run into nudes and save them. I really just do it for the thrill of seeing what other people's private computers contain.

i know, but if they have to work to see the data then they probably wont spend time doing it because they have to be efficient and fix shit fast so they make
more money

Similar story, before I knew any CS I happened upon a server that used to belong to an insurance company but I ended up just throwing it out as it was locked and I couldn't access it. Ah, to be ignorant again.

That's completely understandable and a hobby I might pick up.......

If I used sleuth kit I could see all that data within minutes. The more you know the more paranoid you become. That's one reason I picked up learning computer science.

i should start doing this, but i dont have much money. i need a new pc anyway, mine’s going to be 4 years old in december and ive already reinstalled windows once because the computer was unusable. it has 4gb of ram. also, i used a SMART hard drive check program or something like that and it had a warning about sector errors or something...
should i get a new one or do something to make my current one better?
where can i find decent pcs or laptops cheap? or vintage ones?

Post pics or delete the thread

Well what about it is unusable? Does it run slow, does it overheat, what's the issue?

lowkey im actually a sophomore in high school, im looking to start taking some computer science classes next year and senior year. i took webpage design this year; it’s cool but honestly useless in this day and age. i still like it though. what classes did you take for computer science as a high schooler/college student?

pic related? if so post more wins

I sell old HDDs and on purpose save and delete nude sets of my gf, ex-gf after I did the whipe, hope to finde her pics some day around in the web. So thumbs up for you.

It is far from useless, computer scientists are amongst the highest paid in the US. If you learn programming and one day become a senior developer you could make as much as a doctor. If you're really interested take those high school courses and take some CS classes in college. I didn't go myself though, I'm self taught. I learned through various means on the internet, its littered with learning material that no one takes advantage of.

Sorry, none on this computer and pic not related.

I keep everything I find to myself though, self-incrimination ain't my thing. kek

it’s slow, the battery is shot (it doesnt last too long anymore), i accidentally spilled a bit of water on the left side of the keyboard once (luckally i turned it off immediately and flipped it over to drain it), before i reinstalled windows it would lock up completely after like 10 minutes of use no matter what and could only be hard restarted. chrome takes a while to launch, itunes too. maybe i just need more ram though

i meant webpage design i felt is kinda useless, like html. i loved learning html, but we just finished learning it in class. now we’re moving on to some shit called dreamweaver...

Yeah, probably just buy a new computer. Sell me that one though.

Well learn what you can my friend, good luck on your journey of learning.

i mean, whats the point of learning html when theres thousands of sites that let you straight up just drag and drop to design a website without knowing what html js and css even are?

Chicken shit.

i might keep my laptop to use as my FTP server that i set up for shits and giggles. how much would you pay though? it’s a dell inspiron 3521

And what are you most interesting findings?

I'll pay you with my gratitude.
Home server, good idea.

cum sock

Those sites are usually limiting to what you can do. Would you not like knowing how its done to be able to make your own custom sites and have them do whatever you want?

thanks lol, i even forwarded the port for it so it could be accessed from outside the network. i used FileZilla Server to set it up

child slavery

Probably the HR computer I ran into to. Other than that its all the same, nudes and family photos.

i would, still most can be done with those sites. i wish it was the early 2000s though when a site all in HTML would pass

Careful with port forwarding if you don't know what you're doing.

Most sites are written in HTML, the only difference between sites is how they use Javascript and CSS.

i have a username and password on all the important files lol. logging in as anonymous takes you to a separate empty folder in the server

or rather i have a user account on it that has access to the folders with important stuff

Always got turned on a little bit thinking that the phone repair and computer guys were sneaking nudes of my gf. Anyone posting stolen nudes on this thread?

I can see why you'd do this. I once found an old computer in the trash and brought it home to check it out. Used Hiren's Boot CD to remove the password (it was running Windows 2000)

When I got in there was a text file on the desktop titled "credit cards.txt". I was too scared to try and buy anything with them.

Ever got any good pornographic wins?

still have the computer? wiped or not how much would you want for it? vintage are cool

well man my first hour starts at 7:20 so i gotta go, maybe see you sometime on another thread

If anyone could answer this, from where/which field could I learn skills related to being a hackerman, or at least help in the cause of making me one. I'm studying basic C++ right now and there's numerous paths I could go on.

Same girl?

thebarchive.com/b/thread/747505989/

Unfortunately I don't. That was like 12 years ago. I wiped it and gave it to Good Will after a year or so.

Hell yeah, fam.

Idk i make music n stuff. Mostly e-guitar. Ill have a band soon so thats nice.

Nice, just random friends in the band or did you guys talent scout?

I've actually been considering doing this for a few weeks now. Purchasing cheap laptops from pawnshops, etc.

How easy is it? What forensic tools / OS do you use? How often do you get content? Whats the best thing you've gotten?

I work mainly with pentesting and networking atm for hobby / occupation.

It's pretty fun, I use various tools depending on the situation. I use multiple Linux distros, but right now I'm using Mint. I get content pretty often, and as far as the best thing I've gotten I would have to say just all the nudes in general.

I masturbate compulsively.
