In every TV show and movie when unauthorized people login to a computer of other's, they correctly guess the password after second or third guess. If it's not a birthday the password just happens to be written on a post-it or in between of a book right besides the device, even if it's FBI's or a security guy's computer. What's up with that? Well, I guess some people do that in real life as well. Anyway, it is not as ridiculous as "coding" or "hacking" in movies.
Sometimes I hate to "know things". Once even in a movie a mother was faking her knitting while talking to a person, she never really did any loops, just waved her knitting needles around. It irritates me when there is no authenticity in film.

I'm sure you've seen it, but for me this scene is the pinnacle of TV 'hacking'

@RocksToReplicators Yeah, there are plenty of scenes like this 😅 I loved that in Stanger Things they "hacked" in HTML that had flexbox in it in as scene set in the 80s when flex was introduced in 2009 - not to mention that HTML to be used in something like that 🤣

@rolle @RocksToReplicators There's a really funny inverse to this in Godzilla vs Kong, when a child tells an adult to move aside because he's a hacker and thinks he can hack into Mechagodzilla, so the adult lets him.
Then like 10 minutes later the adult's like, “Kid what the FUCK, do you even know what you're doing???” And the kid's freaking out, “NO, this doesn't look anything like HTML camp!!!”
