I rewatched Stranger Things season 4, which takes place in 1986, and there’s a scene where code flashes on the screen while they’re “hacking”. It shows:
Literally unwatchable
Amateur... They should have just typed
TREEand hit enter like the professionalsbtop
All the hacking flash u need. A hacker needs to know the exact temperature of each CPU core at once at all times. In spaced out colors, for clarity.
Mr. Robot really spoiled me. How does that shit fly under the radar for such a high production show?
Been a while since I watched it. Did they actually take the time to do it right in that show?
Yeah. It was very realistic. Sometimes they simplified explanations a bit. They had real hackers as consultants, and Sam Esmail, the creator of the show, was into hacking and computers as a teen.
Cool! TIL
He didn't use arch, btw.
Hey, at least they used something based in reality opposed to the traditional falling Matrix text... Actually, on second thought, that might be a little bit cooler.
At least if your goanna mombo and jumbo and make stuff up.
Do it with some flare
Should type in
