naruichia Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) I set up an awesome way to get the linux terminal on Windows without Cygwin. I threw Kali linux on my Raspberry Pi then plugged it into my computer via ethernet and assigned an IP to the Raspberry Pi via DHCP Server. Run the assigned IP through PuTTY, giving access to the linux terminal. So I usually hook up the Raspberry Pi to my computer from my backpack and thats it I have the power to run the linux terminal on a nice Windows UI. Anyone do something similar? Sorry that the photos didn't rotate properly. Edited November 30, 2015 by naruichia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naruichia Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 I first started doing this just to learn some basic SSH by playing with PuTTY and WinSCP but now I find that it's a useful tool. When I ran a Linux host people automatically assumed I was stealing their credit card numbers or I was trying to hack into the government (some weird ridiculous stuff), but while running a Windows host with a Kali terminal I haven't had a single person complain.

You need to surround yourself with better people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my friends get it but a few years ago I was getting some work done at the mall, and when I opened up the terminal to move some files around, when a mall cop came up to me and told me that if I didn't stop hacking he would confiscate my computer and escort me out of the mall . I had to explain to him what Linux was... Edited December 2, 2015 by naruichia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Back when I was with my last long-term girlfriend she would often attend spiritual lectures and such at other people's homes that I would drive her to (she didn't have a license). As I had zero interest in partaking in this I just sat outside, in my car with my laptop in my lap simply working for several hours. This was invariably in residential neighbourhoods and on several occasions people simply walked up to me to ask me what I was doing, and in one case if I might be the reason they couldn't get their wifi working. Once or twice the opening remark here was fairly aggressive, but most of the time the tone was more inquisitive rather than accusatory. In all cases I simply explained what I was doing which was sufficient to get them to leave me alone as I continued my work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all cases I simply explained what I was doing which was sufficient to get them to leave me alone as I continued my work. One of my coworkers had the police called on him once. He was sitting in his work car, big company sticker covering the whole back window, working remotely on his laptop. Police show up saying someone called in a terrorist looking person sitting outside a government building. He's a skinny white dude with glasses and a big bushy beard, think amish, that's what his beard looks like. Depending on the day, he either looks like a jewish rabbi, or an amish, or sometimes even jesus. You can probably come up with all the non-pc jokes we give him, that's how we roll. Anyway the cops and him had a pretty good laugh about it. It was their building he was sitting outside of, and they're one of our clients.
