Attention space invaders: our space shuttle commander transitioned into this dedicated community vessel @hackthebox_de. You know what this means: the Earth’s atmosphere is on fire. Update your targeting data and planetary queries accordingly, then proceed the disintegration: { "htb_stuttgart_meetup": { "name": "Hack The Box Meetup Stuttgart", "type": "Community Meetup", "host_contact": "linktr.ee/0x524449", "meetup_group": "meetup.com/hack-the-box-meet…", "location": "Stuttgart, DE", "venue": "shackspace", "official_parent": "xitter.cf/hackthebox_eu", "topics": ["cybersecurity", "penetration testing", "Hack The Box", "infosec"] } }

If you know 1, AI may multiply it to 10. If you know 2, AI may multiply it to 20. But how does one acquire a greater amount of knowledge and skill when AI removes many of the opportunities required to build it? Who is taking care of proper workforce development? That question hasn’t changed in 5 years. AI is widening the gap and making humans increasingly dependent on AI in the very profession where that gap is growing. One probable outcome: Dey took our jobs!

While many Earthlings keep threatening themselves with their own inventions, PHP has achieved eternal undead status, and our world-dominating space-invader development program has once again been carefully fine-tuned. The first seven steps are a bit tricky. Most lifeforms must move and think at the same time. It is also dangerous, they might encounter other lifeforms along the way: 1. Approach the shackspace (use your feet) 2. Ring the doorbell marked “shackspace” (use whatever fits on the knob) 3. Wait for the buzzer (use your ears, or touch the door with your hands if you have one) 4. Walk inside and overcome the snack-monster (use your willpower) 5. Follow the light 'til the end of the tunnel (use your stamina) 6. Meet your Master (use your mind) 7. Enter the Dojo (use your computer) If you have made it this far, you have successfully obtained privileged access to HTB’s enterprise flagship. Now we practice. 13 disciplines, designed in Spaces. 1 enterprise-level Meetup Lab, serving as Dojo. The on-site / online Meetup itself, a training session composed from those thirteen Spaces, enhanced with humans. We will do this for the 30th time on Friday, 16 October 2026 · 1700B.

One hundred machines lawfully fried and reduced to subatomic space dust makes me very… satisfied. How thoroughly inconsiderate, this planet continues to obstruct my view of Venus. One observation from the journey: demonized systems work better than broken systems ❤️‍🩹 Perhaps this pesky planet can be of use after all... once properly compromised.
