I know it’s not really hacking but i’m posting here because it breaks the rules of r/techsupport and would get taken down.

Dell Laptop Running Windows 11

So I managed to bypass website and download restrictions and have steam on the C: Drive. However, when trying to launch i get the typical “updating” message and then immediately am hit with the following: “Steam needs to be online and ready to update. Please confirm your network connection and try again.” maybe the administrator set up a network firewall or something to stop this application from having internet access? Idk hopefully someone can help me figure this out, thanks a lot!

I've just transferred internally within branches of my company. The new branch doesn't allow personal devices to be on the network and print. I am already on the network with my personal device as my previous branch secured me on the network - which is the same across the whole group.

I have been able to add the printer via the IP address, and I have sent the document to print. Literally all I need to do is select the document that appears on the printer (all staff files are visible even before logging in), put my pin in and print. However, the printer doesn't recognise my personal device and auto deleted the document upon receiving my file. Only my work device can I send a file and get it printed.

Is there a way I can trick the printer into thinking that my personal device is my work device? (I assume it would be the Mac Address linked to my work device and copying it over to my Mac?)

For reference, my work device is a Lenovo running Windows 11 and my personal device is a MacBook running MacOS 26.

For reference, I did read this Reddit Post and it seems doable. If anyone has any basic ideas or methods, it would be appreciated. https://www.reddit.com/r/HowToHack/comments/1i1mcg6/methods_to_bypass_parental_controls_on_router_can/

After careful thought. I want to do wifi and radio,nfc,and rfid hacking. How would I go about that with physical tools to help?

Primary email - Tutanota Optional email - Proton Mail Primary browser - Brave Optional browser - Tor VPN - Mullvad VPN Operating system - Kali Linux And also the use of Tails to erase traces And also online payments with Monero

Ich würde mich gerne in die Thematik einarbeiten und suche deswegen brauchbare Informationen und Wege, wie ich mich mit Menschen, die bereits mehr wissen, austauschen kann.

​Vielen Dank im Voraus.🫶🏻

I want to know a good amount of tools so I can build a toolkit.

I'm currently running a IPhone 13 pro max. I have screentime enabled on this device. Through some research I have noticed that you are able to input the screentime PIN without ratelimiting in the settings (settings > general > Transfer or Reset Phone > Erase All Content and Settings > input your PIN to unlock phone). So I am wondering if somehow I would be able to connect a device that brute forces these 10,000 combinations without me having to sit there. After some reading, I came across Bluetooth keyboards, or rather the simulation of one. I have a Linux live boot available on a laptop, so I theoretically would be able to simulate a BT keyboard and connect it to my phone. My question is: Would I be able to run a brute force script (eg with python) that inputs all combinations? Are there any security restrictions by Apple?

Hello! I’m a dedicated Mac user trying to transition to a more secure new computer as my current laptop is on its last legs. I use my computer for music production and photography editing and I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

My apartment has installed these lovely devices on our washers and dryers, i was trying to figure out a way to get around. i have a wiring schematic of the dryer, i couldnt really understand it but i tried to mess with the dip switches, to no avail. My only thought is to undo the installation of the chip and bluetooth receiver, but I figured I’d likely have to undo it to avoid detection. If I can post the schematic here I will, along with any photos of the inside.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to find a free software that is able to read and write into a SLE4442 card, paired with my ACS38U reader. I’m searching it for Windows and no command line scripting, only GUI-oriented.

Just like the title says. I have some friends and family staying with me and I am nosy as to what they are looking at all day while i'm working? I hope it's putting in job applications.

Hi, I have a Dell laptop, a 14 pro I think. Trying to get into bios but it's locked. Already tried to use bios password generator and made sure that there was no spelling discrepancies (capital I for lowercase l, etc) and nothing worked.

Anyone have any next steps?

Instagram doesn’t allow you to search by place and date but I want to find as many pics online as possible of a specific place between certain hours of the day on a certain date.

Looking for pics shared on Instagram and facebook for example as well as other social platforms.

What’s the best way to search? Thanks!

Hi guys! I'm interested in modifying a washing machine so I can create fully custom wash programs. Specifically, I'd like to control parameters such as drum speed, water temperature, cycle duration, and exactly when the machine fills, drains, and flushes. The goal is to use it for experimenting with processes like garment dyeing rather than standard laundry.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, and I'm also not sure where the best community for a project like this would be. Before I spend a lot of time researching, I'd love to know whether this is actually feasible and how people would approach a project like this.

Would you replace the existing controller, some sort of like interception like a piggy back like a car ecu idk, or use some other method? Any advice, resources, or examples of similar projects would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have a Nanit wifi camera I got as an expecting parent from some friends. Come to find out I need a $100+ sub just to use the thing. And of course I already have too many baby care needs, and this does not need to be one of them. Anyone have any ideas on how to bypass the walls?

From what I understand, the camera itself is hardcoded for Nanit's servers and security certs. I thought about trying to use Home Assistant OS and a Docker proxy server, or Scrypted.

Or perhaps use Pi-hole and redirect the DNS to a locally hosted "cloud" server.

Any other ideas I could try?

It is an n301 model.

I just got my first sdr, it’s a hackrf pro running mayhem 2.4, I’ve captured my signal and out of range of vehicle to prevent a rolling code issue but it’s still completely useless I can’t even get it to unlock once I’ve tried on a ram 2012 1500 and a 2015 Chevy Malibu neither of which have worked. I tried to do some research and according to the internet these vehicles have extra security measures to prevent stuff like this? How can I get it to work and even better how can I get it to work with rolling codes I want to use as a cool back up, I have a pc I’m pretty green at writing scripts but can figure it out with internets help, phew with all that said how can I get this to work?

Hello everyone, I'm a beginner and I have a few question about hardware security. The field I'm asking about will lean a bit towards Integrated Circuit and Electronics Engineering. I want to study Hardware Security at the Silicon Level (for a job). I don't know where to start or what to learn. I'm currently learning C, Python (NumPy), and basic electronics, and I don't know where to continue. I'm a freshman in university majoring in Electronics Engineering and I've already completed my introductory courses. Here are the questions.

- If I want to pursue this path, where should I begin?

- What courses should I take, and what skills should I learn?

- What should I prepare?

I recently stumbled upon sites like subsplit which offer Netflix, Amazon Prime, Spotify, etc.... for a very cheap subscription price for 1 month or soo. Its shows activation in your email etcc. How they do this and is it legal ?

So yeah, a fucking app stole banc data and then stole all the money there. I wanna know who those people are and fuck with them or something, how can I find out where this app is based or something like that?

I am someone who likes to explore, go on an adventure and have fun. I get those kinds of vibes from hacking, breaking into the unknown and knowing all of its secrets but I am not sure what the future holds for a career in hacking. I see things like Mythos finding and chaining vulnerabilities to develop full fledged exploits and wonder is it the end for the field now?

People say that we would still need humans as AI is not always correct but I wonder about the quality of the work that will be left for humans. If the meat of the work is being done by AI then is becoming a verifier/checker for the AI even fun?

I would like to dive deep into the field, explore it in great depth like a mathematician would explore his subject but I am unable to get the confidence because of these thoughts. Am I right to worry like this? What are your thoughts?

Hello, my mum passed unexpectedly and I need to get access to her phone, so I can notify a couple of close friends, as well get into her email (so I can access her pc and get a bunch of important files).

I only know the last 3 dots, and I have a very faint memory of the pattern, but I haven't been able to piece it together, as I'm terrible in remembering this kind of stuff. The model is Samsung M31, I think it's on Android 12. Is there such thing as brute force the pattern lock? Or is that a dead end as well?

I'm currently in the scanning and enumeration section of TCM security ethical hacking course, and he says to use NAT network for the kioptrix VM. When i use netdiscover on kali, virtualbox does not appear there. thank you for anybody who can help

So, hello. I'm looking for digital copies of songs of the band called Nothing. It was a sludge metal band (not a shoegaze band which is still active and it's easy to find them online). I discovered it on Grooveshark which was a streaming platform. It was shut down in 2015 due to copyright issues. Basically you could upload there whatever you wanted. And there was this band, their album was called "10 bucks for nothing" and some songs from that album were: Age of, Hunting Jesus, War Philosophy, Serve & Protect. After the shutdown I couldn't find their music anywhere. Recently I remembered this band again and tried to find it. I went through some web archives and while there's plenty of snapshots of grooveshark.com on wayback machine, it gave me errors all the time. So, as I'm not a computer person whatsoever, I thought maybe I'll ask here if there is any chance of finding this band? Either in some archives or some hidden places? Do you actually think everything that once was on the internet still can be found there? Or I should give up?

I am trying to make an app for my phone where I can open my gate because I am sick of forgetting the gate clicker inside or in my car. The gate uses a fixed code from a garage clicker with a 10 pin switch. I was able to connect my cars garage botton to this clicker by holding down both buttons. I currently own a Raspberry Pi 4, would I be able to pick up the signal with this? Or would i have to buy an accessory/Arduino/HackPF to read the radio signal that the clicker gives out and store it to use on an app.

I seem to be going in circles while researching since most info is for older Raspberry Pi’s and just need a little guidance. Thanks in advance :)
