Can't you tell? he's hacking e-corp


I still haven't watched the show. Is it good?


By far the best onscreen „hacking“ I know of. He does use Linux Mint as daily driver though...


Definitely going to binge watch soon. I have thought of using Redox and writing my own tools. An obsucre OS, but still running across interent/ethernet...oh, wait, spawn a drone node on a Windows machine using MOSREF/Wasp Lisp in Rust or Shen (shout out to doublec/sdunlop!) [1,2]

And what have you found to be the issue(s) with running Redox as your OS?


I am not using Redox. I am looking into it currently for its potential of easily porting standard utilities and other programs.


When does he say that he uses Linux Mint?. From what I've seen, his desktop looks like Gnome 2 with a dark theme, or a heavily modified Gnome 3.


I thought he was a KDE fan



I think it's great, but the show changes a lot from how it starts off in the beginning, which understandably puts off a lot of people who were in love with the early bits.


I liked it initially but the later episodes of the first season go off into la-la land which didn't do it for me. Haven't watched the second season.
