Vagrant "Fuse Device Not Found" Error Fix

-

 You may come across this error while using Vagrant in WSL on Windows. It's very confusing and the Google results are not particularly helpful with fixing this specific error

fuse: device not found, try 'modprobe fuse' first

Cannot mount AppImage, please check your FUSE setup.
You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage
if you run it with the --appimage-extract option.
See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE
for more information
open dir error: No such file or directory

The cause of this, at least at the time of writing, is that newer versions of Vagrant (specifically 2.2.19) is broken in (some) cases, and the solution is to use an older Vagrant version (specifically 2.2.6 works for me).

Hacking Metasploitable #1: Introduction & IRC Hack [Metasploit/Linux/Exploit/How-to]

-
Starting today, I will start releasing how-tos on hacking the Metasploitable distro of Linux released by the creators of Metasploit in which I will go through how to determine if a system is exploitable, how to use Metasploit, how to load modules and run exploits, and what to do once you have exploited a system. I hope these posts, starting with this (#1), teach the readers the important parts of using Metasploit as well as the basics of Pentesting and exploitation. This is by no means a thorough series on exploitation, but a way to get basic users' hands wet in the world of exploitation and hacking.

How to Unfollow Blogs or "Reading List" on Google [Non-Technical]

-

This is a very non-technical post, but I could not find ANY information about unfollowing blogs through Blogger without directly going to the blog and clicking a bunch (which from my point of view is INCREDIBLY annoying to say the least) so I thought it might help a few people out. I had this problem that I somehow had a ton of random blogs followed but didn't feel like going to 100+ blogs and unfollowing them individually. After a lot of searching I finally came across a very random post that would not intuitively come up via a search engine.
