Guarantee the PSU "hard drive" is because a director said "That's too small. I need something big and with cables so it looks like a computer part." Kinda like how a bomb needs to look like wires and a clock, not fertilizer and an arduino.

I heard (though it may be an urban myth) that in the first season of McGyver, all of the things the guy McGyvers actually work for real - and since the phrase "don't try this at home" wasn't ingrained in everyone's head yet (and I'd argue it still isn't to this day) they got a LOT of complaints of parents whose kids set the house on fire or similar, so from the second season onwards they consulted with experts and then very intentionally did it wrong on screen so that it wouldn't work in real life.. Maybe this is a similar situation?

So, as someone who has consulted on one of the projects, yes transport departments are using boxes similar to that that monitor traffic by watching for nearby Bluetooth and Wi-Fi devices and counting them up. Before the bluetooth randomisation stuff, you could get an estimate of traffic speed/flow by watching the same mac address traverse a city. Now its more just about aggregate data, how long each mac is seen for, how many macs at any point, etc, to get an idea of peak and minimum traffic levels and how much a road is used.

Can confirm the tracking of customers in stores. A company I previously worked for, a decade ago, was tracking customer using cameras and RF signals, following everything from how long they were in the store, the route they took around it, where they spent the most amount of time, frequency of visits and then tied it all to their loyalty card, so they knew who you were and what you were buying. Then used this for targeted offers.

The first CSI:Cyber example actually was valid. The red code was briefly overlaid on the green code before being plucked out and re-displayed. That kind of obfuscation is a real thing: another method elsewhere in the script would scan that block of code and pull those chunks out to create a new, malicious script that can then be executed after the original code is scanned by online virus scanning tools. Admittedly the virus scanner would have to only be scanning on initial page load and not monitoring memory or script execution as most modern AV toolkits do, but attacks such as that one are why code execution monitoring was added in the first place.

The 255 bit joke was fantastic; for anyone who doesn't understand it, it is based on how numbers are stored in programs, 255 is the highest an 8 bit number can go as it has a maximum number of values (256). A lot of times you can run into limitations and bugs based on how numbers are stored in computers, for example in lighting DMX is an 8 bit number so on one channel you can only have 256 brightness steps before running into limitations - this can be solved by combining 2 8 bit numbers together or in programming just building it with a higher limit.

For everybody wondering about first bit is that even if you omit cpu and/or gpu temp protection they would break before getting anything on fire, fire in the computer usually means that some power was "bridged to ground" for too long or power consumption exceeds capacity of the cables or other power lines and even then there is no much to burn: cable coating, few small plastic elements, and the garolite (which is mainly glassfiber layers of computing boards which doesn't burn much) and that's it - In other words: unless your power supply or connectors are faulty you should never experience fire, no matter what and even then it could result in some smoke but not likely a real fire.
