Hey Jow Forums, /tv/ here. I just watched Hackers (1995), and I would like to ask if is this a good approximation of what you guys look like and what you do?
Hey Jow Forums, /tv/ here. I just watched Hackers (1995)...
HACK THE PLANET
Boot up or shut up
Nah Mr fagbot is more accurate
yeah
t. hacking the planet since 1995
Yup, spot on. Prepare to be hacked btw
we hack the gibson
t. uberh4ck3r1337
Man, what I wouldn't give for a gibson. And the plague's on-site apartment was pretty cool also.
yes
a very good approximation
A bunch of goofy looking people screwing around and sometimes make computers do things. Very yes.
Me on the left
I pretty much look like the guy in the front, only have worse skin.
Nigger
you should watch who am i
it's more up to date but in german (so you'll have to make do with subs)
Your mom buy you that puter?
love that movie
my waifu on the right
jon leugizamo
Mess with the best, die like the rest. Really though Angelina Jolie was so fucking sexy in that movie.
For me, it's Johnny Mnemonic.
It's about 80%, used to be better but then payphones almost disappeared
every time i see her face i see jon voight (her dad). can't get him out of my head when i look at her, so never got into her.
>tfw u hack the gibson
Reminder that this is the canonical sequel to the Matrix.
who is this semen demon
>Implying anyone from Jow Forums has friends
Shaggy.
well, at least from afar it seems those CCC fags look like that
fuck im gay
They would pass as discord trannies so yeah.
Were computers really the big thing back in 1995 as this movie paints it to be? I don't remember anyone having an internet connection at home before 1998/99 and that was rare still even after that
If you were in the City and suburbs like most people, then yes, pretty much everyone around had PC and internet in the mid 90s.
Small towns and country lagged a few years.
More like wargames
The culture presented in the movie is complete fiction and never existed.
People didn't dress or act like that in 1995 at all.
The only thing that was spot on is the man hating extreme feminism which was already prevalent during that time.
it's what I look like but not really what I do (anymore)
I rollerblade unironically and shill RISC, yes.
>man hating extreme feminism which was already prevalent
>t. dropping turds in my diapers in 1995
lmao. you youngins crack me up
>hasty conclusions based on anecdotal perspectve
Were you poor or something?
The fuck's up with all the rollerblades, there's no way they are that convenient
Seek therapy
What this movie illustrated:
>Security people having the need to be unique
>security people dressing weird in some weird hope to upset the establishment
>security nerds being script kiddies and thinking they are important
>security people thinking they have culture, but it is just as bad a weed culture
>security people remembering something from a decades ago and masterbating constantly to it. This includes this movie and some woman's tits they saw for less than 30 seconds. Later to find out the woman has moved on married some big shot (named Brad or something stupid like that) that has no skills and gets paid for looking good.
This movie was a template for the future.
>People didn't dress or act like that in 1995 at all.
zoomer detected.
Unironically look like the guy next to tyrone.
English+Dutch mutt.
I just do networking.
no
It was literally the "digital age".
Everything was moving to digital...
Phones moving to switching to prevent easedropping, digital TV instead of rabbit ears, digital music on CDs, digital documents, digital cameras, microscopes, oscilliloscopes.
The whole digital movement from the publics perspective was similar to a civilization that jumped 400 years ahead into the space age.
Man did we have wild expectations back then...
Nothing will beat that advancement in the consumer market.
This.
It was basically the 90s generation mimicing the 80s to try and have their moment of individualism but adding in a techie + urban theme mashed in.
Everything by design to be unpredictable and ended up being hysterical when viewed out of context.
Think about it no boosted boards and it was cooler than skateboards for the movie.
Its 100% accurate. Now crawl back to /tv/
This was mainstream and normal in 1995. Shit is pretty fucking tame now compared to the 90s
irl we look more like Razor and Blade
arthoe thots pretty much dress like this in 2019 lad
You were clearly too young to remember how controversial he was at the time, especially among the religious right.
Oh yeah, he even took a huge amount of heat for Columbine.
>plays on cable tv all the time
>selling millions in album sales in fye
>woah so controvercial!
Its corporate shit. Everything was controvercial and edgy and sexy in the 90s. It was normal corporate marketing. He wasnt even unique, we has so many other edgy bands and edgy forms of media
kind of like how 8chun took heat for the recent shootings
His response to it was pretty good though.
I'm more of a Wargames kinda guy.
Yup it's my favorite documentary.
there's a distinct lack of mentally ill men that think they're women, so no
