When You Find A Good Move, Find A Better One | Mr. Robot

The dialogue actually matches with the game perfectly. 1:32 "I don't think she meant it to go where it went, just wanted to make some extra scratch" basically explains the tactical purpose of bishop to b5 since it provokes the pawn's on black's queenside

[@Riceyes]

You could also say that in the final position, White's queen(a girl, she) is sitting on h3(or a6, the board is set up wrong), completely cut off from the defense of his king, where he needs it. The only reason the queen is there is because White got greedy. He won a pawn and a rook in exchange for only a knight, which is a good trade in theory. However, in the long run it isn't helpful. Elliot, on the other hand, is willing to give up his pieces, even his most valuable piece, the Black queen, because he plans for the long term gain, i.e winning the game. White is technically ahead in material, but all of his pieces are sitting on the first rank. Black is down material, but all of his pieces are doing something.

[@rapidrabbit11485]

I truly wanted this show to be a wake up call to fiction writers that people wanted more reality when in it came to technology. Thus far, even though it expanded well beyond niche status to be one of the most critically acclaimed shows in television, the rest of what is out there has not caught up. The attention that Mr. Robot pays to technology is the same kind of attention to science that made Breaking Bad incredible. Audiences are smarter than writers think. Some of the things done here were so, so smart. From starting fires in a data center by hacking UPS battery firmwares, to social engineering, to what is probably one of the smartest takes on exploiting SMS two factor authentication. Some of it moved into the surreal towards the end, but it was drenched in reality from the beginning.

I’m going to purchase this show right now even though it profits a corporation.

[@Wylie288]

Oof. That sucks. I dated a schizoid. Still hoping it works out but right im not sure. She's blocked me and I don't know why. Just that, she's still out of it. You aren't going to want to hear this but im going to warn you right now. There will be times he wants to leave. There will be times he seems like he really doesn't care about you anymore. Wait for him because he does. When the voices come, they can convince people of anything. And no amount of logic will dispute their delusions because they aren't based in logic. If there is any sign he isn't stable, don't take to heart anything he says or does. Once the delusion, ends he's not going to feel the same way and will regret it all and blame himself. There are going to be family and friends that don't understand this and bridges will be burned. Although if you have borderline personality disorder. You probably understand that yourself. I recommend a song when things get tough. All the Same - Sick Puppies. He won't likely have visual delusions. He won't forget, or not know what he's done. Its mainly just irrational fears and audible delusions. Sometimes remembering things that didn't happen. So this show isn't exactly a good comparison. The best thing is not letting him isolate. He's going to want to. Don't let him spend too much time not socializing, that only makes things worse. And don't argue with him too much. Unless you have very clear evidence against his delusions (not logic. Tangible evidence) he isn't going to change his mind. Just find ways to make the best of his thoughts and reduce stress. The less stress he feels, the better he will be too.

I think this really happened but within the prison, as Ray can be seen as the prison counsellor, along with his associate/guard, in the scene where Elliot is first admitted to jail, shown later. Also at the start of this scene when Elliot is being picked up from the chair the associate says: "time to go back to your cage", i.e. back to his cell. This is such a beautifully written scene that gives hints to the consistency of the prison reality without giving the facade away when watching it the first time.
