i will never understand why they took the text from kung fury and replaced the guy. like, this is just “some guy” to me, while this
just screams “this man only fucks computers”
The joke is that Mr. Robot is a hackerman
i don’t know who that is, i boycotted the show because of their shitty advertisement practices
It’s the actor Rami Malek, he plays the main character in Mr. Robot, and he’s a hacker. The show revolves around that. The show has a dark tone, so the joke is having him as hackerman.
The show is good, I highly recommend it.
What did they do? I’ve never heard anything about this but I love the show.
they had a whole series of ads disguised as actual malware and ads for other things. they partnered with amazon to add capabilities to alexa without disclosing it to users, and they partnered with mozilla to push out firefox extensions through a back-channel making people think they’d been infected.
I am a bit confused. How can a tv-show push out firefox extensions?
firefox has this thing called surveys, which can install and run in-browser extensions. it’s meant for a/b testing, and very tightly controlled as to not blow the trust of the users. basically the entire corp needs to sign off on a survey.
…but then the mr robot showrunners knew some c-level at mozilla and he pushed their code out without telling anyone. he bypassed all the security routines. and the extension had no mr robot branding on it, just some spyware name from the show, meaning that everyone suddenly had an extra extension named something like “spyglass” and moz support couldn’t answer why because they weren’t told.
More bummed that firefox went along with it. That was when i stopped trusting them
from what i understood it wasn’t that they went along as much as it was one guy with access bypassing the trust chains for the sake of marketing. …which is even more reason to not trust them, obviously.
Mr Robot is genuinely one of the best TV shows of all time. Right up there with The Sopranos in my opinion.
well so is kung fury and kenny starfighter and i bet you haven’t seen those
nope!
No its not
What shitty advertisment practices did it had? I wasn’t around when it aired but I finished the show recently and Its great.
YOU WERE BORN AFTER 2017??? WHAT.
nah nah, bad wording right - my english is bad too lol-- I meant I wasn’t around as in , in the internet much - used to just watch stupid youtube videos.
Also there is no way that either of these things are old enough to be on Antiques Meme Show…oh….oh Jesus 👴🏻
I hate to tell you, but I saved this image in November of 2016. It’s at least a decade old.

NOOOOOO!! I SAID DO NOT REDEEM DO NOT REDEEM!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU???
When the internet is down so you have to send the group chat memes via carrier pigeon:
I have my router on a schedule to reboot itself every Monday at 3 AM, a time when I shouldn’t be up and about. I can’t remember the last time I felt the need to reboot it ever since doing this.
Highly recommend to anyone else!

Power cycling…
We definitely had customers who “reset” their router. They definitely didn’t fix their Internet (especially when it was pppoe)

Real hackers hold the power button on their TV till it reboots to fix the Internet
This guy doesnt configure their router

…so you haven’t tried unplugging the router and plugging it back in?
deleted by creator
I quite suspect that resetting router wouldn’t fix wifi for me. Rebooting though… Sometimes probably.
arent resetting and rebooting the same?
I’m no leet haxor man but I think no they’re not the same. I’ll wait for Mr robot to come explain.
Reset - set back to a known good state, usually factory/ISP defaults. for normies.
