I want this to be part of a Hollywood movie. The protagonist is using his makeshift wifi setup to hack into a bank computer systems 43Km away from his location, and the bank people has no idea what is going on.

- contingencies 5y agoUhh, maybe a believable plotline like "Because the protagonist lives on a crumbling bridge with a military-trained dolphin encircled by cyborg psychopaths and Japanese megacorp military types while a highly infectious disease ravages remnant humanity and it's the end of the world?" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113481/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113481/

- BLKNSLVR 5y agoHah! I only just watched that again a couple of weeks ago. With every re-watch I'm reminded of how terrible that movie is, and with all the passing of time between re-watches my memory of it continues to improve it until it seems worthy of another re-watch, and then I'm disappointed again.

- teaearlgraycold 5y agoI wonder what feats such a hacker could pull off once they hear about the internet.
