You are actually not describing a DDoS attack (DISTRIBUTED denial of service) but only a DoS attack (denial of service). It is different.
Simply out of a simple tool running from your computer/network you WON'T do anything to a server/website or basically any other device.

Running a DDoS attack requires a huge botnet (network of bots) sending gigabits of traffic to a target. If the mind behind such a post is "how can i DDoS a service" the answer is simply you can't. You can't get control over a botnet of at least thousands of infected devices without any knowledge in the hope to become a hacker in few minutes.

HACKING IS NOT FUCKING MAGIC. IS IT BIG ENOUGH?

It is like everything else. I am fucking tired of seeing everywhere people thinking they can simply download an overrated distro with preinstalled tools and simply run few commands in CLI and think they are a "hacker". It is exactly like thinking you can make an open heart surgery because you read few medicine books and can buy few meds at your local pharmacy. Just like anything else, hacking takes years of learning, practice, try and error, investment in both money and time and so on.

Please people, connect the cells you have left inside your brain. Please.

i was told social engineering is the highest form of "hacking" ask cosmo the god

brute forcing is quite difficult from what ive read. might as well social engineer these muppets to let you into their base. no need to brute force.

not necessarily true you may find a regex bug that causes a dos attack or a crafted request that causes a lot of server load

Absolutely NOT. Please refrain yourself from doing such comments when you don't know shit about what you're talking.
Thank you.

I don't consider DDoS "hacking," whatever that is.

DDoS is when you get a bunch of computer to simultaneously send requests to a target. Because the target usually creates new worker threads to handle each request, if you have enough computers, you can get to a point where the target machine can't create any more new workers threads because it doesn't have enough resources and it becomes unusable.

Hacking is usually considered finding creative ways to sidestep authentication and get access to information you shouldn't have access to. A DoS attack is hacking, because it's hard. A DDoS attack is just annoying.

I think hacking is magic. Magic where you take decades to learn the spells.
DDoS is just hiring someone to block the door.

Whats the best way to start learning how to hack?

I'm not sure there is a place to learn how to hack. I would suggest getting really knowledgable in what interests you.

If you like webservers, try playing around with them. Sign up to some newsletters and try to learn more about the field every day. portswigger, owasp, and securityweekly all have very interesting materials.

If you like applications, same thing. Read up on operating systems. Play around with low-level programming languages. Computers do really cool things under the hood that are hidden from us users.

If you like wireless, there is so much to learn. Antennas, protocols, wireless authentication, etc...

Networking has a great tool called nmap that lets you port scan. You can scan machines on your network and mess around with them. Take a look at the `advanced` section of your router and mess with the settings there too.

Be very careful about targets outside of your network. Most important servers have Intrusion Detection Systems and port scanning detectors that can log suspicious ips. I really don't recommend messing with large enterprise systems unless you really know your stuff.

Some people are just so smart with how they do things. Read up online and get to know the technologies we use every day that just feel like magic.

Just have fun. Hackers are just people who know their stuff really well, and the best way to know your stuff is to play around with it imo.

Hope this helps.
