The Jurassic Park franchise has always been pretty good at being scientifically accurate even with computers, as can be seen here. Jurassic World 2 seems to be no exception. At some point the system analyst diagnoses a failing ventilation system, and the command used looks like a valid unix console starting with sudo and using the standard --
for option in command line.
What I managed to read was:
sudo dudecode --isolate
Is it really dudecode
and an easter egg for those who read it? Or is this a real command like dmidecode
which is a DMI table decoder? --isolate
does not seem to be an option for dmidecode.
Knowing the kind of attention to detail in previous films, I find it interesting to see if its something that could really be used to solve a hardware problem using a software access? What would the real command used be, and would a real system analyst use it in this situation?
I realize it will be hard to have definite proof of what the command was (as the film is still in theater as I'm writting this) but a screenshot or someone with certainty would be nice.
uudecode
command for Unix, but that doesn't mean thatdudecode
is invalid - it's just the name of a system command or program call from the command line - even if it's not part of Unix itself, the park will have custom code created for their operations, so it's entirely plausible that command/program does something to reset/reinitialise the vents. If they stay broken after the reset, I'd presume they would send out a hardware tech to check for physical problems. – Dave Jul 2 '18 at 17:35
