_{If you like Unix and think you have assburgers then boy have I got the show for you!}

Most of you would have heard about this by now, but if not, Mr. Robot is a series about a vigilante hacker who is painfully awkward around girls by day and takes down evil corporations by night.

It's pretty good because they try to keep the "hacking" itself fairly realistic. Bad USBs, social engineering etc.

There is the occasional moment where you'll roll your eyes into the back of your skull though.

Also, oh my fuggin' god, he strangled her!

Hnnng dis show is god-tier.

Apparently the writers have the story mapped out until season 4 - providing it keeps ratings long enough to make it to season 4.

Halt and Catch Fire has been absorbing my Tv watching lately. Marathon'd first season.

Clin · Reply #3 Posted: August 07, 2015, 12:09:09 pm

Halt and catch fire is on my list, I'll get there.

I don't think any show should be dragged out any longer than 4 seasons. It's an idea, not a gravy train.

See, Slater and $2 Brittany Murphy had a scene on their own last night. Totally not fight club.

The relationship these 2 have is fucked - but holy shit it's good to watch.

What is this 'USA' Channel, and why does their shit not stink?

Retardobot · Reply #7 Posted: August 07, 2015, 03:03:30 pm

Holy shit tits. That's getting added to the list.

"the code" from aussie is a good watch also

Retardobot · Reply #10 Posted: August 07, 2015, 09:51:39 pm

Welp. Latest episode has put a stop to its almost perfect run of solid tech-talk.

Elliot needs to run a wipe on his PC. So he pulls out his RAM modules to microwave and sits down :\

Clin · Reply #11 Posted: August 08, 2015, 12:05:03 am

I always thought that was weird. Who wants to buy RAM every week? He did it the first time he wiped too.

Retardobot · Reply #12 Posted: August 08, 2015, 12:34:45 pm

I have a feeling that someone is going to get a hold of the RAM chip is dog swallowed and discover all his hacking stuff...

Because you know, storing data in RAM chips is totally a thing.

Clin · Reply #13 Posted: August 09, 2015, 07:47:31 pm

Watched the first season of Halt and Catch Fire. So good, cheers for that.

I think I'm just a little bit in love with Donna Clark.

On a totally unrelated note, I'm using USENET for the first time in my life weeeeeeeeeee.

Watched up to Episode 04 of Mr Robot, hooked so far.

Usenet is boss.

Hit me up if you want an automated system using Sonarr, Plex and SABnzbd (and decent Index sites).

Donna gets better and better.

All of my what. It's nice to be surprised sometimes.

Retardobot · Reply #17 Posted: August 13, 2015, 09:57:05 pm

So, Fsociety is the family business?

Clin · Reply #18 Posted: August 13, 2015, 09:58:23 pm

and we're a floating camera.

And Darleens smokes GROW as she smokes them but now I'm getting all internetty.

Dat episode was good. Its all starting to unravel. Excellent.

Resisting the urge to go back and rewatch before the season ends

I thought the same thing at first, but i think this show is too good to pull some convoluted shit like that.

Can't wait for the last episode of the season, the last one was just amazingly good.

Retardobot · Reply #21 Posted: August 24, 2015, 09:56:29 am

Watched the latest ep last night.

Jesus.

Show leads you on, forcing you to question whether or not Mr. Robot is real, and then it kicks you in the nuts.

Pigdog · Reply #22 Posted: August 27, 2015, 04:16:49 pm

Mr. Robots response to yesterdays shooting in America.

Spoiler :

Clin · Reply #23 Posted: August 27, 2015, 07:15:53 pm

So they pulled the season finale because of that news crew shooting. Totally understandable.

Edit: Sorry Pigdog, didn't click your spoiler in case there were spoilers...

Pigdog · Reply #24 Posted: August 27, 2015, 09:11:57 pm

That's ok, I didn't know if it was going to spoil anything, I haven't started watching the show.
