Thank you for clearing it up!
And regarding your assessment: Exactly!
I had a colleague at work years ago who did his Master's thesis on network scanning. He ran a PoC in the company's network and had all the printers print hundreds of pages.
We learned that printers suck and that we should always know our payloads and targets 😁
Your perspective on your problems is 100% yours, not it itself.
You need Administrative permissions for psexec. It uploads a file to the target computer's \admin$ share (just C:\Windows) and starts a service to execute it. Services run as SYSTEM so that's why you get those privileges.
(Hah, I forgot your message while typing mine and just copied you :)
Edit: fixed c$ to admin$
Because it's still in development, but afaik it is the goal to include it once it's stable.

I use Nessus professionally, they are somewhat similar. I can't decide which one has the worse user interface.
I'm a big fan of hashcat for this use case myself! I route it through WS, however. I like being on the bleeding edge.
I get what you're feeling, but the word is not misused. Its meaning has changed :)
In my experience, the gatekeeping and unhealthy drinking habits are the most toxic aspects of it.
It's only as meaningless as you make it :)
It's not about positivity, it's about acceptance which allows you to navigate the situation better.
