63 0 ReplyI've told the wife I can't watch these shows because of how bad the tech always is, and I can't stop myself from losing suspension of disbelief when something like this happens
59 0 ReplyThe only exception is Mr. Robot. Check this command the main character runs as root:
shred -uz /*
Only show I've seen where they show real commands with really damaging effects.
53 0 ReplyI remember watching the first episode and he brought up a terminal and thinking "here we go" then..."holy shit... Those are real commands"
That and the explanations I was ready to laugh at for being terrible, then... Wait, no, those actually make sense
25 0 ReplyI'm curious what this does, I'll run it when I get home.
10 0 ReplyThat should only shred the top level files in the root directory though. Since shred doesn't do it recursively and doesn't know what to do with subdirectories.
Do any distros store system critical files at the root directory? It's all subdirectories on mine. I guess if you were storing important data files in the root directory they would get shredded but that's really bad practice anyway and I doubt it's super common.

10 0 ReplyI have this vague memory of one of the CSIs showing a list of IP addresses with 4-digit octets... I get not wanting to risk using real IP addresses, but at least use 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x x

That's some shitty 'hacking'...
But what makes these shell commands 'bash' exactly? Seems like this could be a half-dozen shells.
Also.. why are 'hackers' always using a shell in some gui program?

An actual CLI would frighten the windows users watching the show.

Not very exciting though

5 0 ReplyThe OP screenshot is from the TV series "Criminal Minds". My comment is about a TV series "Bones".
The UI in the OP screenshot looks like an X11 window manager from the mid to late 1990's.
