It seems like an eternity has passed, but it hasn't even been three years since I published two free 21-day courses on OSINT automation (Python and Linux), and Gitpod is no longer free. Therefore, I added notes to the course repositories on how to take them in Github Codespaces.

You see all of London life in that MaccaDs. On one late night run there was a group of young women at the counter to pay. The one who got nominated to pay lifted her dress, pulled her credit card out of her knickers, wiped it on her friend’s coat and then tapped it. I’m still in counselling.
