Fun fact: disk destroyer is just a nickname given to DD because of how much data destruction it can do if you're not careful. DD actually stands for Data Duplicator, and what it does it essentially in the name. You could even use cp to image a flash drive, but you don't get the block size customization that DD gives you. Also, you can even make images of a USB or Hard drives which is super useful for backups, or you can even copy the contents of one USB to another


Hey crypto, as far as thinkpads... is the t430 a reasonable entry point machine for learning Linux & pentesting generally?
And to your knowledge is there any advantage or drawback to the "S" models?
Thanks in advance mate, cheers!


Dd is great at burning...
So good that I burned myself so much, I wonder sometimes if im a masochist for still using dd at fast keyboard typing speeds

Tried to clone my microsd arch microsd build image into my replacement microsd. Typed too fast - didn't realise I used the wrong device (/dev/sdX) as the input, accidentally used the device for my external hdd and before I could say the word, it completely deleted all my external hdd data, replacing with the iso

YET I still continued to use it, with my kali iso build...


Before I switched fully to Linux from Windows (all of two days ago), I used rufus for this.


Hence the name "Disk Destroyer" 🤣🤣🤣

Just a Letter can change your Life(also of drive)...🤣🤣🤣


What would happen if you choose a larger block size? What would happen if you put as block size the same size as what you are writing to disk?


actaully it should be cc ( copy and convert ) but that is in use by the c compiler.

Also warning peeps dd is very low level, and will fuck your shit up if you do it wrong. Most and distributions include a usb creator tool, However kali Linux does not include this so you can also use Etcher in Linux or rufus in Windows to build these USB boot images, simpler and safer

You also want to look up persistence for kali linux too as the dd and etcher will make a read only live usb drive


Hey Crypto(or anyone that can help)
I'm trying to install kali Linux on my surface 3 and I need to disable secure boot, and there's a password on the uefi that I don't know (previous owner)
How would I got about fixing this? I don't really want to have to open up my laptop to clear the cmos.

@Duck Meat already tried, they said they dont know what it is so idk

@Duck Meat its my old school laptop that I bought but ok, I'll return it to myself

Dont steal it, and give it back to the owner

@computer tecky any tips on opening it up?

You have to open up and take out and reinstall ram that’s how I do it on my surface


Plz make a full course either in book Or something else but plz make it


Popsicle that comes pre-installed with manjaro,pop os etc is superb too


Yeah I just use etcher. I messed up on DD once and it was a pain to get back


Hey man do you do online lessons i want to learn a live the art


Bro please do online tutorials for hacking concepts


Can you make these slightly longer for YouTube

If you want information, just use articles instead. No youtube video beats documentation


How to make kali persistent usb in linux. ?


I like your style crypto auchh .i am your fans every my work i will say like u


I've destroyed multiple disks just by putting /dev/sda


want to ask a question i know this might be dumb but would you prefer ubuntu over kali (am a beginner)

@Epic Racer  yah.. I also had this kind of feeling, I'm sure most of other people also been there.

@- indeed thanks I am actually new so had no idea.

If you do mostly penetration testing than parrot or kali will be best OS for you.

If you care about linux and want to have some good experience with it.. Then use Arch or arch based distro (like: Manjaro).

Ubuntu is evil.


Sir when you say crypto out i think you are hacker


I'd like to learn how to code. What language do you reccomend I begin with?

@Spaghetta ok, thanks for answering my questions

@Spaghetta oh, ok, can C be used for game development?

@Spaghetta I also heard python is good. What all can you do with C++?


I dont think dd stands for disk destroyer

I think DD stands for Dyou Didn't get the joke


CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW CAN I RECOVER MY PERMANENTLY DELETED PICTURES AND VIDEOS YEARS AGO?? PLEASE REPLY ASAP IF ANYONE KNOWS😭

mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around)

@Spaghettasoftwares like disk drill,ease us??

This is how hackers and legends are born


Hey...hi.<br>Can u do a video on how to install hiddeneye

Hey...hi.
Can u do a video on how to install hiddeneye

Why? It is installed pretty much like every other tool besides they have instructions https://github.com/DarkSecDevelopers/HiddenEye/wiki/Installation-Instructions


𝙸 𝚂 𝙼 𝙰 𝙸 𝙻  𝚇  𝚈𝚃


How much time it will take to become a white hacker like u
Starting from total noob(like a person who just know how to turn on and turn off computer)

Please answer this crpto!!!!!

@Cosmic Destroyer I'd suggest online just so it's easy to go to uni or other institutions

@mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around) Thank u so much!!!👍😀

@Cosmic Destroyer online works but I'd suggest institute to get the rank

@mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around) But can I learn this at home by taking online packages or I have to join a institute!???

@Cosmic Destroyer then it'll take 8 years

@mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around) 😂😂means I actually know how to use a computer and can also make some html pages and know how to install an OS but still ur right I don't know anything about coding and for fresh start it will take 6+ yrs😔

Sorry mate, it'll take at least 10 years. First you gotta learn using keyboard and mouse


Hi is there any hacking servers are available???


Soo rushing slow down dude <br>So much infos need time to realize it

Has no one ever told you about playback speed?

I don't agree. I think this is the perfect way to make a youtube video; short and concise. If you're having trouble following, just slow down playback or pause the video.


Which one do you prefer? That's the correct answer my friend.


dd stands for Data Definition not Disk Destroyer

@z never said you're meant to die, I meant you can't say that you have a life when you strike arguments with people who are using humor

@mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around) Just because people call it Disk Destroyer doesn't mean it stands for that. And why am I not meant to live when I am correct?

@z people call it disk destroyer as a joke. I'm sorry but if you don't understand humor you aren't meant to live

@mom ruoy dekcuf I (Read it the other way around) From wikipedia "The name dd is an allusion to the DD statement found in IBM's Job Control Language (JCL), in which is an abbreviation for "Data Definition"."
