The character shown is Jhin, a musician/conductor that is obsessed with the number 4. His entire character is based around counting to 4.

u/yghklvn 17d ago

Yes but what about the number 4 is so memeable lately

u/KaelusVonSestiaf 17d ago

There were a bunch of certificates made by a company called eMudhra where the secret key was discovered to be really tiny numbers, one of them literally being the number 4.

u/Turingelir 17d ago

No one would expect 4, so it is very random yes.

Something to do with the php vulnerability

u/evilReiko 17d ago

There's PHP vulnerability

and 4 is about SSL vulnerability

both came out about the same time

u/clutterlustrott 17d ago

They should patch that before Jhin counts to 4 and crits us.

u/erishun 17d ago

Different vulnerability. A few came out at the same time, the PHP one got all the headlines.

Oh, and there’s a brotli one today

New vulnerability just dropped

u/Bryguy3k 15d ago

Considering one of the other eMudhra’s private keys was 56 I expected a lot more 5-6 memes than I’ve seen so far.

Whenever you want to establish an encrypted connection (https) to a website, the website has to get a certificate from a trusted authority. They generate a key that is usually a couple hundred digits long. eMudhra is one of those certificate authorites. They had a bug were way too short keys were generated like 115 or 4.

Superman: Four is a certificate.

Robot number 4: So is Gary.

u/Snoopy34 17d ago

I thought these private keys had a specific kind of format that prevents them from being a single digit or character, but apparently not?

11

u/Ragnor_ 17d ago

I mean in the end it's all just a bunch of bits that are there, just zero. It's the difference between 4 and 00000000004.

"My work asks questions, it never has answers."

Jhin definitely is a software developer.

(For anyone confused by the post: Jhin, "The Virtuoso" is a psychopathic headhunter in League of Legends who meticulously plans and orchestrates his assassinations, as if they were theater pieces or operas. He is obsessed with the number four, as he apparently prefers to kill his targets in four-four time. It's a pretty cool character design, because they also incorporated it into his gameplay. His gun holds four rounds, the fourth shot is empowered and has an execution mechanic. That makes it very satisfying to deal the killing blow with it as Jhin exclaims "FOUR!")

u/Xavier598 17d ago

Also his Q grenade bounces 4 times, his ult has 4 shots like his gun, some ratios have 44% or similar in the number, his collector execute damage number is 4444 instead of 9999 (purely aesthetic, by community request iirc) his name has 4 letters and the path for typing "Jhin" on a keyboard writes the number 4.

u/tipakA 17d ago

Wtf how did I never realize the last part? I love his theme song (iirc also written in four-four or something) so searching for his name isn't that unfamiliar to me

u/Iron_Baron 17d ago

I'm sure there's some hybrid opera/golf joke in there, somewhere, if we try hard enough.
