My name is Tim Tapio

Favorite game: Not a gamer but did just purchase a PS4 with several Black Ops that I am clueless to play. I picked up Farming Simulator though, hopefully that will be something I can handle. Minecraft was a bit beyond me as well (I went to a small school)

Favorite OS: DOS 5.0 or Win 95, working on Ubuntu and Kali though, do I get points for that? Putting Kali on a Raspberry Pi, Black Arch also...

Favorite console: PS4 because that is what I have.

Nationality: US

Accent: Generic with a proliferation of sarcasm...formerly well versed in using "F" word

Sex: Male

Age: From before rocks were formed...is there an age limit here? I am approaching senile senior citizen status (or maybe I passed it and forgot?)

Race: White American

Height: 5' 10"

Status: Married....even with a child...but he's 25

Build: Typical balding, overweight with stomach hanging over belt (was told 20 years ago I had that "dad" look)....

Favorite band: Tends to change...Beatles, Early Bee Gees (no disco please), Eagles, even Nickleback (If Today Was Your Last Day), Disturbed with "Sound of Silence" cover. U2, Midnite Oil...I think that's enough to start...favorite music era is late 60s...well, maybe not late, some 64 through 69 (a very good year I'm told)

Favorite book: Atlas Shrugged   I'm a true capitalist. Very conservative however, will listen to differing opinions if you extend the same courtesy to me.

Favorite author: Ayn Rand

Favorite movie: American Graffiti

Favorite director: Ron Howard (because he's the only one I can remember)

Favorite TV Show: I don't watch it

Favorite actor: Clint Eastwood

Favorite actress: Donna Douglas/Barbara Eden

Favorite Pinup: Never got her name and never saw her face

Favorite Comedian: Jeff Foxworthy

Other hobbies: Ham radio, beekeeping, sleeping with dogs, napping with dogs, reading, hunting, eating

Car: 2015 Ford F-250 Lariat Super Duty 4X4 with 6.7L Powerstroke (does it make me sound macho?) Need to lift it...on 3rd or 4th childhood. Have no use for it...however, I love it.

Occupation: Retired and on a relentless quest for knowledge. Studying cyber security/penetration testing. Currently reading TCP/IP Illustrated (I restart every other day and it's always new material), Cisco ICND-102 (first half of CCNA), Network+, Security+, setting up a Cisco lab...got a couple switches, couple routers. Scored a couple cable box/routers, adding in the aforementioned Raspberry Pi systems, once I have SSH enabled in the Cisco boxes, and the Pi's, will be trying to figure out SSH. Working on learning Ubuntu, got my Pineapple Tetra, want to play some in-house wifi tinkering...have a couple "hidden" APs in the neighborhood that I wish to learn a bit more about. Have a yagi with 15 dbi gain that I want to hook to Tetra to make it very directional (once I get SMA and SMA RP straight in my head)...might purchase a second, common mast....give me 18 dbi (strange how db works, would think get 30 db, also, only a doubling...so 3 db. I think I'm rambling...way too early to be up...

Hahaha, overweight guy driving probably the biggest ute (if you can call it a ute, it's more like a glorified truck) known to man. To be fair, most F-250 drivers are large guys (overweight or not).

I'm only large in the girth...5'10 and 230...used to look like Charles Atlas (if anyone is old enough to remember him), barrel chest, 6 pack abs. Too many 6 packs, chest sank to stomach. A lot of big guys had those itty bitty VW pickups. I love my truck...will be the last one I own.

Mmm, must chew like 17L/100 or something like that though? A petrol station must be your second home (unless you've got dual tanks or 1 huge one?).

Actually not bad....just about same as i was getting with a smaller, gasoline fueled truck (14L/100). Tank isn't as big as I would like (27 gallons US, 102 Liters) but gives about 400 miles (close to 645 kilometers). I had to look up conversions but they are close. The 17L/100 is about what the gas engine gets in an F-250. Not sure where you are...I've been in Stuttgart, DE...I sure would not want me truck there...SMART car makes much more sense.

Welcome guyz! I can see most of the people don't mention their favorite books. Why is that so?

Because you're talking to a bunch of geeks with hacking as a hobby and probably haven't read a good book in years.

Haha. :P

My favourite books to read are probably from the author Clive Cussler...(he loves ships, boats and cars)

Hi, I'm too shy to use my real name. Chose the pseudonym "enquire" because I'm generally curious about security.

Also, I'm not game enough to say my favourite book, etc - seems too close to providing answers to security questions. ;)

I've recently loaded a metasploitable vm to learn a few basic skills.
