Tonight's movie was a 30-year celebration of Hackers (1995). I kinda recall the era, but I ... don't recall downloads being so slick. Not even at 28.8K, which was still kinda brand new and awesome at the time. Let alone the colours. Now, I did see some pretty colourful graphics distributed through BBS networks in things like ACiD packs, but computer generated art was generally, uh, much tamer.

Great rewatch with a lime Daiquiri to wash it down.

"Hackers" was released 30 years ago today.

I was 15 years old. My friends and I would watch this movie all the time together, while we aspired to be as elite as these guys. One night we videotaped ourselves hacking into a friend's BBS and changing his logon ANSi to something rather crude - and turning to the camera to say, "Well shit on me..." 😂

We knew the plot and most of the tech was bogus. That didn't matter to us. It was the *feel* of the movie that captured our imaginations - the style, the underground cyberpunk culture they portrayed, the early techno/electronica soundtrack (a masterpiece). We were computer nerds and this movie made us feel like hackers. Hack the planet!!

Este ano, a 15 de Setembro, o filme Hackers comemora 30 anos 🎂

Será que devíamos organizar uma watch party *, online ou presencial, no Fediverso lusófono?

Alinhavam?

* as melhores ferramentas de tradução e de IA artificial dizem-me que a tradução de "watch party" para português é "partido do relógio"

I rewatched #Hackers (1995) yesterday evening. For any #tech lovers looking for a demented #90s hacker film, you can’t go wrong. Objectively, it isn’t great, but it has very much cemented itself as a #CultClassic. It’s worth a watch.
