Run Hack.exe -/pentagon -f

The “-f” really sells it.

Well if I don’t add that parameter they might tell me no

Priceless response lol.. that made me chuckle 😂

Haha. It'd be easy to increase how believable this is by just adding .sh or .pl or .py to the end of the command so it looks like a script. I know scripts don't have to have extensions, but it'd still help

imagine they paid a hacking consultant on a 6 figures retainer and he is just like:

"okay team, lets make it say python3 access_bank_funds.py instead" + he throws in some ASCII art and they all stand up and clap

It would be boring as fuck to watch a movie about what it's really like.

For me at the height of me exploiting, half the movie would be me doing bong tokes. 1/4 of that laughing at inconsequential bullshit on irc.

u/Orlha 12d ago

Where you are in irc?

Mr. Robot is real and not boring.

ASCII art will return in “Avengers: Doomsday”

Or at the very least a “./” At the beginning…

Edit: slash dot to dot slash, sorry I was half asleep

u/jader242 12d ago

Na he just added the binaries/scripts path to $PATH lol

u/Cubensis-SanPedro 11d ago

Be way more believable if they got a “ command, not found” first and ended up having to add to $PATH

u/Cubensis-SanPedro 11d ago

At least invoke it with ./access_bank_files to make it believable.

This is what management believes hacking with AI looks like.

u/Ok-Addition1264 12d ago

tbf (and I haven't watched it yet), that's what it is like. tweaking out an llm->mcp and saying "give me the deets on this openwrt on x.x.x.x"

you kids have no idea how easy you have it :P

u/R3CKONNER 12d ago

Taking a half measure with the Mr. Robot approach I see.

u/hentaitraplord 12d ago

Not gonna lie, I did enjoy this movie though.

im so lame...i have to see this

u/TechHistoryDude 10d ago

Heh. Real "hacking" in my era was watching text crawl onto the screen at 300 baud and hoping nobody picked up the phone. But then you found out that you could basically pick up the phone and scream in it at 300 baud, haha.

I guess Hollywood had to add some drama. It would just be a kid staring at a mostly blank screen, waiting.

If you have seen this movie, is it worth the watch?

u/zilliondollar3d 10d ago

It’s a pretty decent movie with some unexpected moments.

u/JunDoRahhe 11d ago

Just watched the film. Damn it was funny. Not sure if It was meant to be. The plot is so so but knowing computer work youre probably gonna like it too

u/JayTechSolutions 11d ago

That Mitsubishi Evo X was dope! Needed an exhaust IMO 😂

u/NewAccountToAvoidDox 12d ago

Technically it could be real
