blackhat is probably the worst hacker movie ever.

best hollywood hacker movie i have seen is probably girl with the dragon tattoo, at least it's somewhat realistic, She uses a stupid macbook the whole time though.

the part where that big fat guy drilled her in the ass was pretty hot tbqh

The Merican version, I know people say the sweed version is better but i beg to differ.

There are certain circumstances where it's possible. It's not that it's compiled or anything, but if you're making an image arbitrary data can sometimes get included. You see this a lot in old console games where partial source files are present in the ROM.

I remember being impressed by this when watching this in the cinema. You wouldn't expect such a big mainstream movie to get this shit right. It's not that hard to get right if you think about it though. It's probably actually more expensive to let your graphicsfags invent and edit in an entire fantasy computer system.

>What are some good computer hacker movies or documentaries /g/?

I was pretty happy with the realism of the hacking in Mr Robot.

All the hacking was on the command-line, using real commands (like ls, wget, etc.).

There was none of that bullshit flamboyant GUI fake-hacker stuff, like having a huge blinking box on the screen that says "PASSWORD ACCEPTED" followed by Matrix-like text scrolling by at 1000 lines per second with the guy glancing at it and knowing exactly what it means.

Hackers is my fave. A good documentary is the BBS documentary. It's on YouTube. Cool history of bulletin board systems.

Also book wise, Neuromancer is an absolute must read if you like cyber punk.

That means nothing when the BIOS boots before the bootloader and code can be injected into it.

Please, hacker are bad evil people. You wouldn't want to make a documentary without telling everyone who bad they are. Don't forget, they are bad, anti-social, psychotic and want to see the world burn.

true meaning of the word hacker.png
106 KB, 330x330
>In June 2000, while visiting Korea, I did a fun hack that clearly illustrates the original and true meaning of the word "hacker".

>I went to lunch with some GNU fans, and was sitting down to eat some tteokpaekki (*), when a waitress set down six chopsticks right in front of me. It occurred to me that perhaps these were meant for three people, but it was more amusing to imagine that I was supposed to use all six. I did not know any way to do that, so I realized that if I could come up with a way, it would be a hack. I started thinking. After a few seconds I had an idea.

>First I used my left hand to put three chopsticks into my right hand. That was not so hard, though I had to figure out where to put them so that I could control them individually. Then I used my right hand to put the other three chopsticks into my left hand. That was hard, since I had to keep the three chopsticks already in my right hand from falling out. After a couple of tries I got it done.

>Then I had to figure out how to use the six chopsticks. That was harder. I did not manage well with the left hand, but I succeeded in manipulating all three in the right hand. After a couple of minutes of practice and adjustment, I managed to pick up a piece of food using three sticks converging on it from three different directions, and put it in my mouth.

>It didn't become easy—for practical purposes, using two chopsticks is completely superior. But precisely because using three in one hand is hard and ordinarily never thought of, it has "hack value", as my lunch companions immediately recognized. Playfully doing something difficult, whether useful or not, that is hacking.
