This is a Good Show, but has a Bad Thread. Seriously, I've read through the first 13 pages and it's just so terrible. I just finished the finale last night, so I'll catch up soon and can't wait to discuss it with you guys! I was very satisfied with the season overall. E: Ha, the thread gets a lot better on page 14.

Fiendish Dr. Wu posted:So our security guy does this, although it just quietly sends him an email in the background so he can do what he needs to do (break kneecaps, etc) Yeah, this is very much a real social engineering tactic. Granted, you usually don't drop 20 of them in the parking lot because that breeds suspicion, but it's a common vector of attack. I used to work InfoSec at a bank and we did exactly this as part of annual penetration testing.

Like Dr. Wu said, no, but it means remedial training and a bullet point on a report to improve before the next audit. I finally caught up on the thread, and can't believe no one has mentioned since the finale that in Elliot's withdrawal dream, Tyrell was holding a key. Encryption key? I'm hoping the series does t go that way, and I don't think it will. The repercussions of fsociey's actions have to be real and not undone by the key, but I think it will come into play in one way or another. I don't know what to make out of the conversation between Elliot and Tyrell's wife. I don't think Tyrell even wants back in at E corp, I think he allowed Elliot to proceed and possibly even filmed the video that Elliot focused on in the final episode. I don't know where he could be, but I don't think he's dead and I think him and Elliot are allies now. I need to rewatch the season.

Huh. I completely forgot/missed the other key references in the sequence. I didn't find a vid of it during a cursory Google before posting that, so I didn't reanalyze.

Man, it was telegraphed pretty heavily. Sure, there were scenes for misdiretion and to add doubt, but I really don't think it was meant to be a 'big twist'. It wasn't even played that way when it was revealed, it was more an an affirmation for the viewer.

^^^ well said.fullroundaction posted:I actually really like that the finale didn't make an effort to show the scope of the fallout of the hack. It would have been too much with everything else going on, and they maintained the dizzyness of the situation by focusing tightly on Elliot's daze. Agreed.

I like that the show can make you question things like this. Personally, I don't think E=T but you're right, there's something more to their relationship (and maybe Joanna's?) than we've been told so far.

I love this show. I finally watched E1-2 yesterday, and caught 3 tonight. Looking forward to the rest of the season, great episodes so far. I was on board for the asylum theory last night, but I don't think E3 added to that theory much besides maybe chess, which you could see being played there (but also everywhere else). That's the closest Elliot's been to a computer in a month, I guess. The religion meltdown was great, but the best part was the beginning: "Elliot, would you like to share?" "Nah man... my system's hung." E: oh hey look http://i.imgur.com/QcyDLoX.gifv http://i.imgur.com/rsZTWHj.gifv CloFan fucked around with this message at 04:05 on Jul 22, 2016 |

Finally caught up, that was a great episode! I'm a fan of the slow-burn. You don't have to have a ton of action and plot development in every episode to have a good show. I did want to point out that the 'rubber ducky' that the one hacker gave angela is a real exploit. He says it kinda fast but I love that the writers get things like this right-- Mimikatz Exploit on Github. Between that and them using Signal to communicate, this show has not lost it's real-tech edge. Besides them not using a script for Angela, but w/e

There was a line between Price and [someone] about how he was thinking of pushing E-Coin if the bailout didn't happen. That's one of the most interesting aspects for me, to see E-Corp push their own currency as a means of economic recovery. But, there's already a sign at the deli that says they accept E-Coin, so maybe it's already in play?

JazzFlight posted:It works with Elliot because we're seeing through his unreliable mind (at this point in the series, he can talk with Mr. Robot and people won't hear him), I don't think this is true. Didn't Ray and the guard exchange a look when Elliot talked to Robot when he sat down? I think E just don't give a gently caress anymore, since Ray already knew he had problems

That episode was fantastic! Great pacing and cinematography, and music selection. Cisco's head is gone, and you can totally see a ketchup bottle exploding on the table in that zoomed gif. Darlene is probably alive, potentially with a couple bullet wounds though. How did the DA assassins know where Cisco was? And how dumb is Dom's supervisor, god drat. Unless he meant to do that  That Dora the Explorer scene really reminded me of the VR clip they did. Also, I need to look up a screenshot of those wifi networks, I bet there's jokes CloFan fucked around with this message at 02:14 on Sep 9, 2016 |

Didn't Elliot explicitly say in early S1 that he had a thing for Angela? He had a daydream about it in the psyche's office I think, or maybe at that dinner thing at Gideon's.

Exactly my thoughts. What's more, is I think I'm okay with the show going in those directions Last night's episode was a bit of a mindfuck. I loved the Elliot/Mr. Robot role reversal segment, as well as Angela's  room. Disappointed in no answers, but poo poo, hasn't the show already been renewed for the next season? I guess we'll get our answers in time. This thread is one of the best things about the show.
