🔴 [LIVE] Hak5 Hits 1 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS

Added: 2026-05-17

[00:00:31]Okay.

[00:01:01]I think we're live. Let me check.

[00:01:39]Okay, we are totally live. Okay, cool.

[00:01:44]Amazing.

[00:01:48]So, amazing, amazing.

[00:01:56]>> Basically, >> cool. We I just published the latest Threatwire episode and um now we're just hanging out and waiting.

[00:02:12]you know, it's just 100 people and I think that based off of the rates of how things are going, we're going to hit it pretty soon. I figured y'all might want to watch the uh latest video together.

[00:02:29]That might be fun.

[00:02:32]And then we could just hang out and see how things go.

[00:02:42]You know, like what do you think?

[00:02:47]I have I have real job to do. I do have real job to do. This is real job work.

[00:02:53]No, saying it's not real job.

[00:02:56]You know what I mean? I also have my full-time job to do right now. Did I hit mute? I should not have hit mute.

[00:03:05]My mic is on. The music background is there.

[00:03:12]Hey Siri, turn off garage.

[00:03:16]There we go.

[00:03:22]Uh, so I figured we could watch the latest Hack Five video together and I guess hang out and see when we get when we hit a million.

[00:03:41]What do y'all think? Should we do this?

[00:03:45]Are you interested in this?

[00:03:56]Let's see if this is going to work.

[00:03:59]Google, it might work.

[00:04:02]Let me put my ear.

[00:04:05]Hello. Hello. We're going to watch the latest YouTube video together. Everyone should go watch it because it's good for views and engagement.

[00:04:15]But Chrome has silently been installing AI models on computers. This story and more on your weekly cyber security news roundup. I'm Alli Diamond and this is Threatwire. I do have to say also, our editor has been going crazy. I have basically let it let her go and do whatever she wants. And she has been having so much fun, I think. And she's like, "Okay, like I can help get this channel to a million and like keep our views up." And I definitely want to see that happen happening. It's been really difficult for me just cuz I'm spread so thin. But let's see what she did with that.

[00:04:54]I'm interested to see what she what she did with this video. She's been having a lot of fun.

[00:05:03]Alexander Hemph, who writes on the blog, "That privacy guy has been on a kick finding these hidden installations."

[00:05:10]Hold on one second.

[00:05:12]Give me one second.

[00:05:14]Close this.

[00:05:16]Close this.

[00:05:19]Okay. Last week, he wrote about how Enthropic was registering message bridges in Chromiumbi based browsers on systems with claw desktop installed.

[00:05:27]This new finding revealed that Google was following a similar pattern. Chrome was installing 4 GB of AI models on their devices. The model lives on your device as a file named weights.bin in the opt guide ondevice model directory.

[00:05:42]>> Yeah, the name was really that obvious.

[00:05:45]It serves as weights for Gemini Nano and powers many of the Chrome AI features like scam detection and quote help me write features. According to the writeup, at no point does Google prompt for permission to download this model to your system, but deletion will trigger it to be redownloaded when Chrome AI features are active. As a heads up, the Chrome AI features are active by default. The cycle of deletion and redownload has been documented across multiple independent reports on Windows installations. The user deletes, Chrome redownloads, the user deletes again, Chrome redownloads again. The only ways to make the deletion stick are to disable Chrome's AI features through Chrome flags or enterprise policy tooling that home users do not generally have or to uninstall Chrome entirely. On Mac OS, the file lands as mode 600 owned by the users. So, it is deletable in principle, but Chrome holds the install state in local state after the bytes are written. And as soon as the variation server next tells Chrome the profile is eligible, the download fires again. The architecture is the same, only the file permissions differ. This was also confirmed to happen on Apple Silicon, as we just said, using an automated audit.

[00:07:02]They did an analysis using Mac OS kernel file events, Chrome's per profile state, Chrome's runtime feature flags, and Chrome's component update logs, confirming this download was happening.

[00:07:15]In one recorded instance using an automated testing tool with no human interaction or mouse movement, the install and download was kicked off and it took 14 minutes and 28 seconds to download even though the page was only active for 5 minutes. Again, no user confirmation was asked to download the model. I know the threat wire audience mostly leans against Google products.

[00:07:40]So, normally I would ask how would you categorize this kind of dark pattern?

[00:07:44]But I know y'all are going to go crazy, so I'll open the floor to all of your comments below. Cupid civil. Two Linux zero days in basically one week feels kind of insane, but I think that this story is also going to blow your mind.

[00:07:58]Yes, another zero day has hit Linux, this time by the name of Dirty Frag.

[00:08:03]Dirty Frag was discovered by researcher Hun Wu Kim and it actually consists of two CVES CVE 202643284 and CVE 202643500.

[00:08:17]Microsoft has confirmed dirty frag being used in the wild and exploited today.

[00:08:21]Dirty Frag is extremely similar to copy fail which we covered in the last episode. They're even considered to be in the same family of attacks. The attack chains together the two CVEs to write to unauthorized kernel caches to achieve local privilege escalation.

[00:08:36]There are no system crashes that occur when this happens and it does not require any kind of special permissions and anything new. The two vulnerabilities are kernel flaws. An XFRMP page cache write vulnerability and an RX RPC page cache write vulnerability.

[00:08:56]Attackers can achieve privilege escalation by chaining these two vulnerabilities together. Allegedly, Kim found this vulnerability at the end of April, but Linux failed to patch the vulnerability >> and they decided to go public findings.

[00:09:09]Kim released a proof of concept of the attack on their GitHub, but no patch or CVE exists for this yet because it turns out that a third party had published the exploit independently, rushing them to come forward with their findings.

[00:09:22]Because the embargo has now been broken, no patches or CVS exist for these vulnerabilities. After consultation with the Linux distros at openwall.org maintainers and at the maintainers requests, I am publicly releasing the sterny frag document. Besides news, shiny hunters took down canvas, an online platform used by schools. They also stole data but have been holding Canvas at ransom. At the time of writing, Instructure, the company behind Canvas, appears to have met the demands of shiny hunters and paid the ransom.

[00:09:53]OpenAI has released their chatbt 5.5 model, and according to testers like the AI security research institute, it is a similar level to that of Mythos. Mythos is currently limited to critical launch partners, while 5.5 is general access.

[00:10:08]Ozilla, one of Anthropic's critical partners, has been working with Mythos to find vulnerabilities in Firefox. A total of 271 vulnerabilities were found in a two-month period with what they call almost no false positives. The Google Gemini CLI had a 10.0 CVSS critical vulnerability that would allow Gemini to run untrusted folders during autonomous execution. This could lead to remote code execution due to malicious environment variables. Google has found a collaboration of thread actors using AI to develop zeroday exploits. what they're calling the first time the technology is used in such a malicious context. Another series of vulnerabilities were found in several AI CLI tools falling under the vulnerability name Trustfall. Malicious repositories found on a developer's machine will be activated by AI tools without prompts from the AI tooling.

[00:11:02]Let's encrypt turned into let's not encrypt as we took a pause in their certificate issuance services. There was an issue with the cross-signed certificates linking Generation X's roots to its upcoming Generation Y root infrastructure. Thank you so much for watching Threatwire for the week of May 11th, 2026. If you enjoyed this show, please head over and like, comment, subscribe because um a few things. This is probably going to be our last episode before we hit 1 million subscribers, which is very exciting. Today I'm going to do some sort of a live stream so we can be online for when this happens together. If you don't have notifications turned on, please be sure to turn them on so you know when this is happening. Hackribe is literally the longest running channel on YouTube and your support means the world to us as we approach this mega milestone. Yes, it did take us a long time to get here, but we're still here. We're still making content and still being active, and that's to be celebrated.

[00:12:03]Last week, we did get a lot of comments around our turnaround time on stories. I know I mention it frequently in the comments, but it's just me and our benevolent editor goddess Karen. She has been doing such an amazing job over the past few months advising me on how we can really get our numbers up and keep our views up. So, there is still going to be a gap on how fast we can turn around an episode. But I know people want breaking news and I want to give that to you if but if we are a little bit behind on stories. Please be understanding. That's why I'm calling it your cyber security news roundup. We'd love to focus more on the impact of the stories over the actual implementation of the stories. What do you think? What would make that discrepancy on how long it takes for us to get a story or an episode out versus how long or when it actually happens? Like what do you want to see with that discrepancy? Let me know in the comments because we really do read them all. I read them all even though I may not respond to them all.

[00:13:02]Thank you so much for watching. If you want to find me online, you can find me everywhere at ending with Alli. And remember, good luck, have fun, and don't get caught. My teeth look so white in that in that episode. Oh my god. Okay, amazing. So, let me just rehat. Let's get our background music back up again. Just lost it. There we go. Little background music for y'all. It's like the perfect waiting music. Um, but let me actually go ahead and rech my headphones in cuz I am going to be while we hang out and wait for us to hit a million. I'm gonna do some work work with me, you know.

[00:13:53]Oh god, don't go there.

[00:14:07]Okay, so this goes here. Give me one second.

[00:14:37]Okay.

[00:14:40]Yeah, it's definitely going to be a while until we hit a million, but I figured, you know what? We're going to be live together and if you want to come in, we can hang out. So, let's check and see who's here. Christopher, uh, Practical IT Jockster Tom Foolery says, "Let's party." Jockster says, "How do you think about Hermes for hacking?

[00:14:58]Haven't tried it out yet." Uh, Abu, I can hear you now. Sounds good.

[00:15:05]Zero Day Psychosis. Hello. Max Noble, hello. Um, Jerhin always comments seven words to make the algorithm love you in Korean too. I always see those. Um, X Lewis, congrats. Thank you. Practical it hitting 1 million subs is a very big deal. Where is Darren to help celebrate?

[00:15:22]Well, um, the T is that as Kriet says, he's on his honeymoon. He is in a different hemisphere right now. Um, and so he is away from the keyboard. Um, he's away from the keyboard.

[00:15:41]Abu says, "I wish Google would just inform us about these tool additions and give us a user choice to enable them or not." Agree. Apparently, you can go into Google Chrome and go into Chrome.

[00:15:54]Chrome, what is it? Chrome flags. And then you can look up the AI artificial You can disable all the AI tooling through the Chrome um flags uh settings. So that's something fun watching this while developing the spec for a product I want to design and build. Absolutely. Um Josh says and then fake Zoom class. Where's the last 100 at? Y'all should publish on your socials and let everyone know that we're live until we hit our last 100. It's only a hundred. Like, not to be dramatic, but it's literally only 100 people. I know that we can like based off of the number of people in chat right now. I know that we can hit our 100 people. We have 79 viewers right now. So, I know that we can get there. So, I'm looking forward to y'all texting all your friends and letting us know. Um, TechSense Media still 99,000. I know. Practical it. It's a good excuse for not being here. He's definitely somewhere without his laptop.

[00:17:12]Funky Monk says, "We're so close to 1 million." Yes, we are. Sam Woodin says, "Congrats to Hack Five." Thank you. Um, AI Butterfly says, "It takes nearly one minute to sub to reflect your unsubscribe." Stop it. Um, Texans, thank you. But like, let's not send Pierre.

[00:17:29]Cool. Kyle gives me thumbs ups.

[00:17:32]Um, we're so close. BB, sorry, just BBRZ says, "We're so close."

[00:17:40]Ver says, "Hi, hello." The freak says, "Uh, the counter being all back and forth. Don't know."

[00:17:47]Uh, let's not encrypt. Absolutely.

[00:17:50]Russell G, congrats. Thank you.

[00:17:56]Is that El Doo?

[00:18:01]LD do. Thank you're awesome. Thank you.

[00:18:04]Um, Wood Fin, only the most pure scientific water is drunk at HackFi from the finest of beers. I do enjoy using beers. I love using a beaker to drink water.

[00:18:14]Drinking water beaker. Beaker water is the best. I love it. Uh, do work. I am here to do some work and we can hang out. Where be dazza? I don't know what you mean by that. What if y'all had someone who could step in and do live breaking news kind of like the actual news? I mean, we could do something like that, but again, um I mean that's what I'm supposed to do in the reality of things. It's just me on Threat Wire. I mean, as you can tell from the YouTube channel right now, it's basically just me and occasionally Darren posting. Um if there's a way I could do it easier, I would. But I uh the reality of things um is that I you know I work I tell people I work four I basically work five jobs now between hack five uh my full-time software engineering job which hello um with uh my own content and my own streaming. I'm booked and busy. I'm booked and busy. It's been a long time since I sat with Darren on that aircraft carrier and launched the pineapple. Wow, that sounds like a great story. Um, Digi Ninja Robin uh 4115 Steve says, "Hello world." Hello. Um, so 3 L says, "Be respectful to Ally. If you're not, I have a special set of skills. I will find you funny." Um, David Durell says, "I like this channel.

[00:19:44]I wish few of her sentences ended with question marks, but that's the way California talks.

[00:19:50]I am not from California.

[00:19:54]I am not from California. Um I'm idle in chat. Mike says they're idle in chat. Looks like it's going well.

[00:20:00]It's going to be chill. We're This is a chill chat. We're here to hang out. If I could play some music for y'all, I would. But that's how you get your channel taken down. um not taken down, but that's how um they'll like stop the live from being distributed and they'll just start muting the live. Not interested in doing that. Um so Russell says, "What are my thoughts on Alpine? Haven't used it."

[00:20:30]Plush Plush says, "Hello." Um AI Butterfly says, "Do you guys remember YouTube live chat leaks account info? Is that fixed? No idea.

[00:20:40]The Freak says, "Be dramatic." Uh, Cybeard says, "Hi there. I remember you in my chat this morning." Shane says, "Good morning." Um, chat I chat are unsubscribed so she can man the 1 million at any time. Funny.

[00:20:59]Uh, friends texted Max Noble. Thank you.

[00:21:02]Or use Brave instead. Yeah, you could probably use Brave. Funky Monk says, "Where's Little Mushroom?" He's over here.

[00:21:11]The mushroom is right here. I took it off. I felt like it was a little distracting and kind of hard to green screen around, so I took it off. Um, spam Discord with at everyone to hell hack 5. No, let's not abuse other Discords. Um, I still got the original pineapple case uh sat on my desk at home in a bag full of beta boxes. Amazing. I have my pineapple on my desk. I can't wait to get one. Hello. I was at Tourcon in 2012 when we first launched the pineapple. We spent a day filming an aircraft carriers. That's crazy. Um I think I live breaking news is too difficult to coordinate too. What's more difficult, software development or making content for my channel? Work less, live more. Um what's more difficult, making content or the work for my main job? I think they're both really difficult in different ways because you have to know different things. I'm not the best developer in the world and so I know that it takes me a little longer to write code, but also knowing how to play all the all the different marketing channels and staying up to date and staying relevant and playing the algorithm.

[00:22:23]It's exhausting. It's truly exhausting.

[00:22:26]And it's they're both hard in their own different ways. I'm never going to put down the work that people do. Um I know everything is about cookies now. It's hard. It's really exhausting.

[00:22:42]So, they're both hard and unique in their own different ways.

[00:22:49]Good morning, dancing good moves.

[00:22:53]I mean, you're gonna I'm just going to say that like playing the algorithm is really hard and knowing what people want is really difficult. And so you never know when something's going to succeed or not succeed. And it's so hard to predict what stories are going to do.

[00:23:09]For example, even well on Hack 5, it's really hard. It's very difficult.

[00:23:17]So I can never truly tell. They're both hard in their own ways. Coding is, you know, a little bit more deterministic in a way, but there's always going to be someone who has some thoughts and opinions on how to do your job right.

[00:23:28]Um, they're both hard. I don't know.

[00:23:30]They're both hard.

[00:23:32]I'm not good at any job at this rate.

[00:23:35]Speaking of jobs, let me go in um look through some stuff because I do have a full-time job and I do need to work on it and I'm working on it right now.

[00:24:03]Um, I wouldn't. So, I'm not updating legacy code. I guess I can say I now I work on cyber tools now, which is kind of cool. Um, I won't tell you where I work. Still won't do that. That's still not something I'm willing to do. But I do have a full-time job, which is good in fun and fresh.

[00:24:31]And both are times consuming. Yes, both are very time consuming. Tedious things.

[00:24:37]All work is timeconuming.

[00:24:44]We're getting closer every second. I wish I could play better music for y'all, but I don't have any like royaltyfree music.

[00:24:58]Let's see. It is kind of distracting at the same time. I do want to focus on my job, but I also want to be like, "Oh, oh, oh, how close are we? How close are we?" You know?

[00:25:11]Oh, there we go. Big jump. Big jumps.

[00:25:20]I think if anything, so I'm not working I don't work I'm not working with cyber security tools. I'll say this is that I'm still a full-time software engineer and I know that some of y'all have used products where you're like where did the developers even come up with the idea to think this is a good idea and that's because there is such a big disjoint on the people building the product and the people um using the product. And so you're going to find you're going to find that a lot of times the people building the product and making some of the more niche decisions are not the ones who are selling the product and understand the end user in the way that the salespeople can. I don't know.

[00:26:16]Basically, one of my biggest value ads at the company I'm at now, which I'm like kind of really I love is the fact that I do this job at Threadwire where I write Threadwire and I spend time in the security community and I understand the things that y'all have been uh thinking about and I could bring that knowledge into technical discussions about what's important to cyber practitioners and I think that's really cool.

[00:26:44]I don't know a single other dev who can say they do that.

[00:26:48]Hello, Always Be Smile. Hello.

[00:26:54]I've been thinking about making a happy group hacking group called the Mississippi Psychics. That's such a funny name. I love it. No, we're not hiring. I'm not hiring. I will not I don't do referrals to the company that I work for. Um, I thought about doing one, but I decided I wouldn't want to risk exposing myself.

[00:27:20]If that makes sense.

[00:27:48]I'm reading about casting types and a free cast in Golang right now, which is so exciting. I've never done anything like this before, but I guess um I should ask, do you guys have any questions for me?

[00:28:04]Feel free to keep putting them in the comments because I'm here to just answer, hang out, see what we could chat about, things like that. I know that I've been loosely following also one of the hard things about breaking news also is the fact that I really struggle with following the news. Um uh but I do know that there's right now that kill switch shy hallude situation.

[00:28:34]What's the best way to spend my affirmed three 0% 3-day magnet madness week?

[00:28:38]Well, 3 days is not a madness. It's not a week. Um so don't know. Don't know.

[00:28:45]Um, close kill.

[00:29:12]Oh, wait. Oh my god. Wait. I'm reading about the elude situation right now.

[00:29:15]Wait, wait, wait. This is so interesting. Okay, so Upwork has an article that says, "One of the most unusual capabilities observed during the deoffiscation was the module internally named roulette.py.

[00:29:25]This component introduces geographically targeted destructive behavior based on time zone and local fingerprinting."

[00:29:33]What the payload checks multiple independent indicators to determine whether host appears in certain regional settings.

[00:29:47]Then unlike simpler geoloccation checks, the payload reads the binary time zone database directly, allowing detection even when systems rely solely on zone info sim links. When a targeted system is identified, the malware executes randomized destructive behavior.

[00:30:06]If the random roll succeeds, the payload unmutes the host audio. system downloads run for cover and executes recursive file system deletion.

[00:30:20]What Oh my god. Oh my god. Wait, that's crazy. Holy [ __ ] This is THIS IS EXCITING. OH, THIS is so exciting. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.

[00:31:05]Wait, because there was also um Wait. Oh my god, this is so exciting.

[00:31:52]Wait, where's the one? Okay, they have a dead man switch.

[00:31:57]Um, so what will happen is there is a service that pulls um api.github.com/user with the stolen GitHub token every 60 seconds. If the token is revoked, it runs rmrf destroying the users destroying the users's uh home directory.

[00:32:43]Oh no, my computer went down. Oh no.

[00:32:45]Wait, hold on. Hold on. Sorry, I don't have caffeine or anything.

[00:32:53]I don't have caffeine or stay stay on.

[00:32:56]Uh so we'll just have to do this. Hold on. Hold on. Uh let me Oh my god, Shy Holude has already struck. Yeah. Um, squirrel in the chat. Uh, okay. So, let's see.

[00:33:57]John Hammond should do a breakdown of it. Of course, he's going to do a breakdown of it. It's John Hammond. Um, I have stopped shipping any code until this is resolved. Good choice. Certain regional settings. Yes, regional settings. That is the kill switch.

[00:34:08]Literally, they just play roulette and if they Oh, that's so funny. I love this. I love this. I'm eating it up.

[00:34:20]Oh my god.

[00:34:27]That's amazing.

[00:34:30]That's so good.

[00:34:34]Um, yeah, their kill switches just delete the system. Their kill switch is like RM RF full send. Um, just subbed.

[00:34:44]Appreciate all the hard work. Thank you so much, Banky. When the hunt 1 million hits, the internet turns off. I'll make sure it happens. I guess I have to substitute Um, John Hammond hack five video would be funny. His loud rants in the way you guys break down the news. Perfecto. You tell him to collab with me. I'd be happy to do it. Um, someone jinxed it probably. I just hacked your computer.

[00:35:08]No, you didn't. Uh, someone botnet 80 subs.

[00:35:13]Second window. Uh, YouTube live chat to keep the window on. It is.

[00:35:19]It is actually already here. Congrats on a million.

[00:35:25]We're so close. Everyone keep sending it out.

[00:35:33]Oh, that's so exciting. I'm living.

[00:35:36]Oh, this is so good.

[00:35:39]We need someone to go get Robert Morris of the Morris Worm. And I just want him to like make a statement.

[00:35:51]I just want him to be like, "This is dumb."

[00:35:54]Um, I guess I'll also say that I have like not beef, but the convent the conviction that Robert Morris of the Morris worm actually hates me.

[00:36:10]Like, I know he hates me.

[00:36:16]Um, I know for a fact that Robert Morris of the Morris worm actually hates me because he was one of my teachers in school and he um I went up to him and talked to him about his work as with the Morris worm and then he was like I was really dumb back then and then proceeded to basically like tell me to figure [ __ ] out myself.

[00:36:45]So convinced that he hates me at Yeah, at this rate. Why is somebody subbing and unsubing? Because they enjoy [ __ ] with us. Um, I could start publishing more content if I bet if I publish more shorts, the shorts it'll go up faster. Um, someone said at this rate it'll take another 83 minutes. Yeah, that's fine. I just I'm working.

[00:37:14]All I have today is work.

[00:37:28]Have been loving your latest vids. Keep them coming. Thank you so much, Stargazer.

[00:37:37]I have time. We have days off here.

[00:37:39]Woof. Uh, comment commentary on the American workers uh, American working conditions. Woof.

[00:37:49]Let's see. The short answer is no. It doesn't allow you to add methods. Okay.

[00:37:56]Amazing. Cool. So, what do I need to do is we have these types here.

[00:38:06]Amazing. Yes. And then We can do some conversion. Oh, you know what? Let me I can't believe it plays music. Oh my god. Someone I need to experience this.

[00:38:54]I intent Oh my god.

[00:38:58]I need to experience this. I intentionally infected myself with the shy hallude worm.

[00:39:04]I need to experience this. How can I experience this?

[00:39:19]I think I know how I could experience this. Hold on. I need to send a text.

[00:39:24]Where's my phone?

[00:39:41]Set up a PVE box. No, I got something better happening.

[00:40:21]Oh, there I have an idea. Um, Who would I do this with? Who would I do this with?

[00:41:26]Okay. Um, who would I do this with? Um, uh, want to do an Insta.

[00:41:52]Um, I have an idea.

[00:42:00]Okay, hold on. Let me text this up.

[00:42:04]I'm getting the uh keyword out so I could type a whole message.

[00:42:28]No, come on. Let me let me type out my keyboard.

[00:42:38]There we go.

[00:43:45]Does the music change at the moment? Not really. The music's not going to change just because of the um royalty-free.

[00:43:58]Uh Okay, let me airdrop this over to my phone.

[00:44:23]How do I share this to myself?

[00:44:29]Share cast.

[00:45:05]No. Accept. There we go. There we go.

[00:45:08]Okay. So, I'm going to take this reject and then I'm going to take this This woman in history and I'm in the comments. We did it. Yes. Greetings from down under. Hello circuit domain. Thank you so much for stopping in.

[00:45:52]Um box.

[00:46:50]He Okay.

[00:47:26]Amazing. Amazing. And then what am I going to do here?

[00:47:32]My PC makes insecttoid noises sometimes.

[00:47:35]Should I be concerned? Yes.

[00:47:38]Yes, you should be concerned.

[00:48:05]We are all concerned. Yes, we are all concerned.

[00:48:18]You're all doing a hecking concern background tools crop uh Instagram apply and then we'll do something like like this.

[00:48:50]Do a shape up here.

[00:48:57]And we're going to do color shape square rectangle none and then apply. And then we'll do plus shape rectangle color there like that. And then we'll just do like text video of computer.

[00:50:19]Okay. It's in a frame case. I'm not concerned. Miley wondering why you have not investigated it. Wait, I'm sorry.

[00:50:26]Uh, hold on. I'm just responding to things.

[00:51:12]Hello, Mr. Protocol. Sorry, I am trying to do a thousand things at once. Okay, let's go through and see this. Let's see what everyone has said. Um, it's like watching water boil. When you care less, things happen way faster. Exactly. I'm keeping distracted.

[00:51:32]Trying to do work.

[00:51:35]Um, my PC makes weird noises. We already talked about. Mine sounds like a lawn mower. Very concerning. Are you running your computer using an engine? Um, what if I unsub when it gets to 9,999? That'd be really [ __ ] mean. Um, give us a hot take on tech. Um, AI is only exclusively trained on bad code and therefore will never truly replace really good developers. And so if you are a very good developer, you will remain employed.

[00:52:15]It's in a case, a frame case, so you can hear them more than if they were in a tower. What's a frame case? I don't know what that is. I quit my job yesterday.

[00:52:23]It wasn't my thing and I felt lonely.

[00:52:24]It's out in the office. I don't know how to tell my online community. Just tell them you quit. I'm working so I'm looking. Me, too. Um, are there any other tech channels on YouTube you subscribe to and admire? Where do you get your tech news from? I get my tech news from Twitter and from reading blogs. When I go to write Threatwire, I get a lot of it through Twitter. Is there any prize for a million subscriber? No. Sorry.

[00:52:52]Um, I need to I need to up my tech game, but I'm just so busy all the time that I'm not I'm not I'm not hardware coded. I'm not whatever coded. I really need to been listening since 2008 or so. So amazing to see how long it took, but it shows the hard work and dedication keeps things growing 100%. Let's see. Let's see. Um, lifetime.

[00:53:35]They didn't even start tracking lifetime of the channel, everyone.

[00:53:40]Lifetime of the channel. They literally did not track this stuff.

[00:53:47]Oh, we could see the outages and then the steady steady rise.

[00:53:54]Almost there.

[00:53:56]And now we're here.

[00:54:06]How do I get that hack five shirt? You order a regular Hack Five shirt and then you cut it.

[00:54:13]I literally cut my shirt.

[00:54:29]I remember being a junior analyst when Hack Five came out. Happier days.

[00:54:38]I found hack five through revision 3.

[00:54:41]Yes. Am I right that you have local partners in Europe where you ship Wi-Fi pineapples from? I'm located in Greece.

[00:54:49]Uh there are some people in chat who should know the answers to that. Was there a drop when Shannon left? Well, Shannon left here.

[00:55:01]Shannon left here. So, no.

[00:55:08]Revision 3 is a throwback. Yeah.

[00:55:13]If anyone knows the answer to the shop question for shipping to Greece, they should definitely let that person know. Can I get a shop job without a CCNA certificate as a fresher? No idea.

[00:55:25]I don't I don't work in that.

[00:56:01]I don't know the current status on the EU shops. I don't know it either. I don't know it either.

[00:56:14]I guess I should start from the store and do the wrapping on that. Yeah.

[00:56:23]Yeah, that's probably the right place to do things.

[00:56:35]Pack five tequila would go hard. What energy drink makes people hack better?

[00:56:40]Um, what energy drink makes people hack better?

[00:56:52]tab, but the reality is probably a yerba mate. I love yerbs.

[00:57:15]What is this? The late 90s. Yeah.

[00:57:51]Why did no one say Mountain Dew? I've never had a sip of Mountain Dew before, genuinely.

[00:59:16]Okay, I see what I need to do here.

[00:59:18]Okay, so Emma Serge, why did they remove Mr. robot from Pride. Now I have to buy the discs. I don't know.

[00:59:30]Stopcribing and unscribing.

[00:59:34]Stop scribing and unscribing.

[01:00:27]There we Go. Yes, your roots. Stop this madness. Exactly. Are there no super chats for Hack Five? Not that I'm aware of.

[01:00:35]Not that I'm aware of.

[01:00:50]We're just hanging out. We're just hanging out.

[01:01:03]So, what we're going to do, so we're going to change this to spanneruid.

[01:01:18]And we're going to import this types.

[01:01:45]Amazing. Okay, there we go. can. Okay, so I subscribed in 2022. Thank you.

[01:02:01]Does Best Buy even sell physical media anymore? No idea.

[01:02:12]Of course.

[01:02:42]Okay. So, we're going to go back here.

[01:02:44]We're going to name this to stuid amazing C. And then we're going to call this notes here.

[01:03:04]custom wrapper. Let's see.

[01:03:33]Does Barnes & Noble still exist? Yes.

[01:03:35]When do we get a brick and mortar shot?

[01:03:36]Hack Five shot. Come to Defcon. That's where we sell in person. I used to work at Best Buy back in the day before Geek Squad existed and it was just called Computer Services. LOL. Um 69 to go. Nice.

[01:04:25]Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

[01:04:26]We're here and then this should be the right kind of wrap for this here. Amazing.

[01:04:39]Okay.

[01:04:47]Right.

[01:05:21]Okay, we're changing all this stuff around here in store.

[01:05:30]Amazing.

[01:05:33]Wait, does Social Blade still go crazy?

[01:05:36]This is actually just a screen on the YouTube channel.

[01:05:44]I do have physical media. I have some physical media. I still do.

[01:06:28]Why do people format their Golang files this way? It's so crazy.

[01:06:36]I lost all my physical media thanks to a boating accident. I'm sorry.

[01:06:41]Why do they do it this way? Oh my god.

[01:07:20]Okay, that was bothering me. Amazing.

[01:07:28]Okay, 82 more to go. 100%.

[01:07:36]Is it 82? No, it's 72.

[01:07:43]Yes, we are talking Golang. I am working on Golang at work right now. I write Golang for my full-time job, everybody.

[01:07:55]very very exciting stuff.

[01:07:58]Um, close this. And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to take this. Nope. I want to go to this and say um for a custom strct in Golang.

[01:09:03]Okay, we're watching the sub count while she debugs. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

[01:09:24]Will Hack Five hit 1 million subscribers before Halfife 3 comes out. GTA 6. That is the question. Will Hack 5 hit a million subscribers before GTA 6 comes out?

[01:09:45]Share this stream on my socials? No. No.

[01:09:48]Maybe.

[01:09:57]Let me do that.

[01:14:48]Okay.

[01:14:52]Amazing.

[01:17:01]Let's see. 67. Yes. 67.

[01:17:05]What's a good alternative to Discord?

[01:17:07]Pen and paper.

[01:17:10]Pen and papair.

[01:17:14]You do string.

[01:18:14]I got a Slack message.

[01:18:20]I spun up a Matrix server. It's about the closest self-hosted option that I found. Hi Ally, I enjoyed your threat wire on Google AI. Nice job. On the background, you're using the apartment from Cyberpunk. What are your What are my What are my favorite games? I have that apartment in the game. Oh yeah, the editor picked that.

[01:18:47]Everyone subscribe a second time.

[01:18:48]Exactly.

[01:18:55]Pen and paper. Not pen and paper. Pen and paper.

[01:19:37]Pen and paper.

[01:19:44]Not quite there yet fully. We're very close. Matrix is a Discord alternative.

[01:19:48]I hear that if you click the subscribe button really hard, it account says two or more subs.

[01:19:54]Instructions unclear and now have 2 million subs. Exactly. It's inching up.

[01:19:58]We're getting there. We're getting there. We're We're holding on for dear life. We're committing. We're locking in.

[01:20:08]We got this.

[01:20:10]We got this.

[01:21:29]Is there a hack five IRC server? No, there's a discord.

[01:21:34]There's a discord. Use Laura at work. I am using chat and cloud right now.

[01:22:06]dot is empty.

[01:22:30]Where are you throwing errors? Show me where you're throwing an error. There.

[01:22:35]Amazing.

[01:22:36]Found you. Okay. Why are you mad?

[01:22:42]Yeah, that makes sense cuz I moved some stuff around on that.

[01:22:46]Amazing.

[01:22:49]I'm about to start raiding a new IRC server. IRC lives. Yes, do it.

[01:22:55]It's so old that not too many people know how to use it except for the Die Hards.

[01:23:01]We're super close to 1 million. Hello, doodler.

[01:23:05]60 away.

[01:23:08]Lock in everybody. 60 away.

[01:24:26]I'm so confused on Why are you mad? Missing comma.

[01:24:53]All right.

[01:25:01]Explain to me this.

[01:25:13]I wrote a Twitch bot some years ago.

[01:25:17]Twitch chat is based on the IRC protocol. Yes, it is. You can IRC into Twitch chat. Who is hack five? I I mean, you're here.

[01:25:33]You're the one who's here.

[01:26:25]Check the main page. What main page?

[01:26:31]Million for million subscribers. Hell yeah. I would love a million dollars.

[01:26:35]How does working Hello, Tibs. Bonjour.

[01:27:08]A bonder the ai AI the you that never stops doing the last thing you were doing. What IRC server when Hack 5 gets a million? I don't I don't think that's going to happen because I can't maintain that.

[01:27:43]There are other people that maintain the Hack 5 Discord server in case you were curious, but they work really hard and this is not their full-time job, you know.

[01:28:11]Wait, am I a mod on here? Yeah, I think I made you a mod a while ago. Tibs Hack Five helped you pick your career.

[01:28:18]Oh, I'm so happy.

[01:28:22]The fans will probably do it themselves.

[01:28:49]John Hammond only comes out at night.

[01:28:54]There used to be a hack five hosted IRC a long time ago. Then I went to one of the popular networks. Uh I think it's dead or very inactive now. I haven't logged into it for a decade. Wow.

[01:29:05]Now I'm an acting CES. So a who are the other four of hack five? Um no one.

[01:29:12]Hack six.

[01:29:16]Hex six.

[01:29:27]I need a new career or some way to renew my interest in cyber security. Um, go to a hacking conference that's not focused on sales and you will fall in love with the field.

[01:30:04]John Hammond isn't real. He can't hurt you. I registered Hackad as a dev domain many years ago.

[01:30:10]Oh, cute.

[01:30:44]Hexic sounds like heretics. I do not like that.

[01:30:56]This just takes your money.

[01:31:33]Is Darren still around? Yes, he is still around. He's on his honeymoon right now.

[01:31:39]Darren is on his honeymoon.

[01:31:49]I don't think he's here. He's probably asleep or something.

[01:32:03]Screen share what hack.5 Who are you? Who are you?

[01:32:21]Call him. No.

[01:32:25]If he's awake, he'll respond in the group chat, but he has not responded.

[01:32:54]We're very close.

[01:33:02]We're not going to Who are you? What's your name? Hi, my name is Ally. Who are you?

[01:33:14]Screen share my Golang. Nope. Can't do that.

[01:33:20]Cannot do that.

[01:33:31]It's just a l i.

[01:33:36]Uh oh. Uh oh. Uh oh.

[01:33:45]50 away. Getting close to 50.

[01:33:57]Getting close to 50.

[01:34:34]Hack Five is going to hit a million subscribers before we get Halfife 3.

[01:34:37]Hack Five is going to hit a million subscribers before we get 50 away.

[01:34:45]Hack Five is going to hit a million subscribers before we get GTA 6. Crazy.

[01:34:55]Damn, that's crazy.

[01:35:14]Hold on. I'll be right back. I have to go to the bathroom.

[01:41:26]Oh my god, I was muted. Thank you. I'm so sorry. Thank you so much. Sorry, people are unsubbing and it's very rude, y'all.

[01:41:36]It's very rude.

[01:42:16]It's very rude when y'all unsub.

[01:43:01]I'm just adding a widget to my phone.

[01:43:04]Sorry.

[01:43:07]Shortcuts.

[01:43:19]Okay, perfect. If hack five hits 1 million, I'll unsub for my doctor. Don't do that.

[01:43:27]Hack 5 is going to hit 1 million before reasonable gas prices. Probably crack some local wi-fi. No.

[01:43:38]I got three subs for my co-workers.

[01:43:40]Period.

[01:43:42]Thank you.

[01:43:49]Let's see. What did I miss while I was gone?

[01:43:52]50 subs before she gets back. Amazing.

[01:44:01]There will be colonies, Mars colonies before we get GTA 6.

[01:44:06]Probably.

[01:44:10]A lot of them were like, "OMG, I remember Hack Five. Thank you." Tell them to all sub. We're here.

[01:44:22]I promise we're still here. We're making content. This is the longest running channel on YouTube. As a reminder, We're here. We're still working. We're hanging out and we're making stuff.

[01:45:41]Is this going to work?

[01:45:44]Did I define this right? New that work?

[01:46:06]Why' you throw Why'd you freak out there? That should work.

[01:46:22]Any recommendations for a $100 Android phone?

[01:46:35]Oh, no idea.

[01:46:39]I need to buy a spare phone just to keep track of the Hack Five live streams.

[01:46:43]Thanks for all the amazing content over the years. Thank you.

[01:46:48]We're so close. We're 40 away. We're just going to keep going. It's fine.

[01:46:55]I'm reading about I'm reading right now about primitive types. A named primitive.

[01:47:06]I don't know. I don't uh I don't know too much about named primitives.

[01:47:11]Go chat. We'll ask chat. Tell What is a named primitive?

[01:47:25]42 is the answer. Yes.

[01:47:33]Named primitives usually mean custom named types whose underlying type is a primitive basic go type such as string.

[01:47:39]Go's built-in basic types include booleans.

[01:47:46]Is Darren gonna make an appearance? No, he's not in the country.

[01:47:52]So, he's not in the country.

[01:48:46]Let's see. How do you work with named primitives?

[01:48:58]How do you work with named primitives and building new ones and making methods for a named primitive?

[01:49:12]You know what?

[01:49:15]What if I name this spanner?

[01:49:24]I kind of want to name this spanner. Uu ID.

[01:49:28]And then take out the new and then we can go here up on this and then take that out.

[01:49:48]types.

[01:50:17]I'm learning.

[01:50:21]I'm learning about named primitives in Golang types.

[01:50:34]What does it mean? I don't understand how this works. I don't understand.

[01:50:40]What does it mean?

[01:51:08]How does it work?

[01:51:14]I just I'm unfamiliar with even this like concept of these named primitives.

[01:51:19]Declaring a new type with an underlying primitive type, then converting values to it as needed, optionally attaching methods to it. These are new named types, not aliases. It is backed by that but not the same as that. Use type and then create values like this.

[01:51:48]Okay, we're 40 away by the way. How are we going to celebrate when we hit Oh.

[01:52:42]Does that work?

[01:52:47]I believe that worked.

[01:53:35]I think I think I understand it.

[01:53:44]new. Maybe I tried to write Hello World in Russ and ended up with cargo in a pre-made program of Hello World. No.

[01:53:52]Celebrate by overloading Domino's pizza ordering department by ordering a mac ton of pizzas for a pizza party. No, I don't eat pizza.

[01:54:02]We're just hanging out. I wish I could play y'all good music. I wish I could play y'all good music. I really do.

[01:54:10]But I can't because YouTube will demonetize.

[01:54:16]I do. I do. I do.

[01:54:21]I wish you could hear what I'm listening to, guys. It's only taken an hour for us to get a few subs. It's fine. We're fine.

[01:54:31]Let me go on my Twitter.

[01:54:35]I have to install Twitter. Hold on.

[01:54:46]Play music. Be banned. No.

[01:54:50]No.

[01:54:52]You can't make me I'll retweet you. Thank you, Tabs.

[01:56:00]Okay, let me get the live stream link.

[01:56:02]Copy.

[01:56:31]Well, I wrote the Twitter app pretty fast. Amazing.

[01:56:44]Hold on. I have to add something to my to-do list. Add Damn, that's crazy. Stop unsubscribing.

[01:57:39]I remember being a CIS admin when Hack 5 came out. Damn. Welcome. Welcome.

[01:57:50]Live counting down until at hack five hits.

[01:58:11]paste. Send not this time. Okay.

[01:58:34]Who is a sisop here? I don't know what a sisop is. I have posted on Twitter. I have posted on Instagram.

[01:58:46]My Twitter photo is really bad. It's really funny.

[01:58:49]I took a screenshot of the live from here.

[01:58:54]It's insanely crunchy.

[01:59:10]box.

[01:59:30]Which one of you is hacking my dreams to make Ally show up in them? Woof. Okay.

[01:59:34]Uh, fun fact, if you looked at yo 67 67 GUYS, I'm just like a young I'm just a girl. I'm just a girl. 68. Here we go.

[02:00:16]6ix9ine.

[02:00:26]Oh, 67 66.

[02:00:36]Is this actually the first tech channel on YouTube? It kind of bugs me how many tech channels meet reach 1 million in such a long time. Yet, the oldest one is taking the longest. I know.

[02:00:45]I know.

[02:00:49]I guess this is the longest running in the oldest channel tech channel. Well, who's who's older? I Justine or us? Do we count?

[02:00:59]Yo, 69.

[02:01:03]Let's go.

[02:01:13]MKBHD started in like 2011.

[02:01:21]Oh, 68.

[02:01:26]69.

[02:01:35]Woohoo.

[02:02:04]67. Well, actually, no. We're at 70.

[02:02:07]Okay, we're 30 away, y'all. We are 30 away.

[02:02:13]We are lit literally 30 away. Literally 30 away.

[02:02:32]Six. Seven.

[02:02:35]The brain rod is so real.

[02:02:42]Okay, we are now literally 25. We are a quarter away. We are so close, y'all.

[02:02:56]The brain rod is real. It is. A lot of YouTube channels commercialize too much.

[02:02:59]It makes me stop watching and not sub.

[02:03:01]Listen, we haven't been sold to private equity.

[02:03:10]25. Let's go, guys. I didn't really expect I just I've been so busy. I didn't really know what to do. So, I really don't know what I'm going to do.

[02:03:43]Stop making more accounts on your phone.

[02:03:44]I wish I could make accounts that fast.

[02:03:46]I'm so bad at technology. It's so funny.

[02:03:49]Like, y'all think I'm good at technology. I'm so bad at technology. I need to get better at it.
