@cigazze I'm on a 7 year old XPS right now *shrug* I think I paid $600 for it?

they're luxury because everyone can see you have a mac. Same as a rolex. Or a designer bag.

@cigazze *shrug* OS is pretty mediocre, dells last just as long... benefit is cost. Its a luxury item.

@eidolon if you put the dump in ida does it match any standard flirt sigs for rt funcs

@eidolon you'll have to dump it based on page permission; all r-x pages.

I wouldn't expect the exe to be the same size as the dump especially if it's packed. Probably many dlls are in there too

oh man - this serial program works perfectly and will save me SO MUCH time and headache.

Tools rulz, ok? like Gregg

Turns out once I fixed my mutexes I'd stull bumped my baudrate and that was the issue I've been fighting for the last hour and a half :/

@Sangria kinda sounds like secret of mana in that regard

@Sangria is it really good? is this what I'm playing when I finish DQ8??

@typhlosion luckily when you write exploits for a living 99% of your control flow code isn't actually in the exploit - its the program you're exploiting, so the person who wants to understand your code has to reverse the target to sort it out 100% of the time.

Everything else I write are just my own tools ;)

@Fuego @literorrery me, cosmic brain: [quietly writes code with self-modifying jumps]

@Fuego @typhlosion
Me, a computer scientist: GOTO is a terrible linguistic concept and any high-level language should be embarrassed by its inclusion.
Me, a programmer: break, continue, next, and last are all GOTO by other names, and nobody complains about them. Sometimes you want to short-circuit other parts of your code.
Me, a hacker: // LOL make this a function later my life is pain this should live in its own package worms in my brain get them out.

@typhlosion I feel strongly that complaining about HOW to code is people doing something else so they don't HAVE to code.

@typhlosion
me: everything is goto when you disassemble the bytecode deep enough.

@literorrery I'm not super pleased yeah... its def my issue... I'm ending up dicking up my mutexes but not unlocking when certain things fail and of course the python serial lib HAS to be used asynch

@literorrery its all for control flow in nested error cases :/
