Regarding the ChatGPT part, a lot of non-technical people around me keep saying:

"All you IT's are doomed, with ChatGPT we don't need IT's, as he can build me fully functioned website .... Finally the ballon for you all will pop ..."

And most of the times, I am just sitting there and be like, okay ChatGPT will spit the code and you might have functioning website, but you do not have idea how it function, or how to modify or support it goddman.

Yeah it is useful, but still the person behind it, needs to know excatly how to code works, so it can be modified properly and as well my opionion, nobody with some six figures business, wouldn't rely for his business to run on it and cut his staff.

Exactly ! Actual AI (LLM) is not reliable for the time being and you still need humans to manually check and adjust, it will be different with AGI (which is an other form of AI), but it's not ready yet.

By the way if you're involved into hacking, feel free to check this thread to share your progresses, I've made it to motivate every of us to make a little bit every day : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6288695

Thanks mate,

To be honest, I'm a complete noob regarding lnk files. But I don't like to not understand things in hacking (and computing in general), I'll work on this topic, and make a tutorial soon then, for Fallen
You literally NEVER stop surprising me with your insane tutorials for real.
Does anyone want me to make a virus via Godot 4.3?

Your kind words go straight to my heart buddy, for real.

And that's just the beginning, we're about to step it up a level soon : https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6290667

Spoiler (Click to View)

I'm having some troubles with this part. I'm using PyPDF 5.2, not PyPDF2, so I've had to change the code a little bit. Using their documentation I've made this:

Code
from pypdf import PdfWriter

writer = PdfWriter(clone_from="sample.pdf")

url = can't post this because I have less than 50 posts

javascript = f"app.launchURL('{url}', true);"
writer.add_js(javascript)

# Write to pypdf-output.pdf.
with open("pypdf-output.pdf", "wb") as fp:
    writer.write(fp)

However, the PDF output file just does nothing. There are no errors in the console logs besides warnings that I get with other commands. I've tried using alerts and printing to the console instead and these work, but opening a URL does not. Can you tell me where I'm going wrong or if this has been fixed/restricted?
please i need to know about hacking can someone talk to me

Thanks for the post ! That's not my field as I'm more oriented white hat / cybersecurity but I think it's vital to understand how malicious actors and their tools / methods work.

I improve my tutorials over time, if I find any other tools or methods I'll add them !
Amazing tutorial! Thank you!! I bookmarked it :)
