This comes to mind every time I see a post like this. I love helping people learn, and I'm 100% for teaching and sharing information, but I'm also pretty annoyed by people thinking they're a /r/masterhacker because they installed Kali and know a few command line flags for dirbuster or nmap. The machine ran Mac OS X 10.4.5 with the latest security updates. Mac OS X Hacking Tools WikiLeaks has just published a new set of classified documents linked to another CIA project, dubbed Imperial, which reveals details of at least three CIA-developed hacking tools and implants designed to target computers running Apple Mac OS X and different flavours of Linux operating systems. Tbh, I'm getting a little sick and tired of kali users looking for people to solve their problems. For his challenge, Schroeder connected a PowerPC Mac mini to the Internet. Why was your VM performance poor? What about kali makes it special? Is it just a handful of tools or something special about the system itself? If it's just tools, are they available open source, and can you build them for Mac? Which tools can't compile on your Mac? Why? Can you patch the makefile(s) to work on Mac and then push it back upstream or is it a fundamental compatibility issue? In other words, you need to seek deeper understanding, and make that your default go-to when you come into a problem. It really sounds like the best thing you can do is to try to understand why you're up against your perceived limitations and what you can do to overcome them.
