Leet (1337) speak for 'hacker' — a classic piece of early internet geek culture where letters are swapped for numbers and symbols. H4x0r is used mostly ironically today, either to mock someone who thinks they're a big-deal hacker for figuring out basic stuff, or as a nostalgic nod to early 2000s internet forums and online gaming culture. Nobody who actually hacks uses it unironically, which is exactly the joke.

An early internet leet-speak (1337speak) rendering of "picture" or "pic," where the "c" becomes a zero and the ending gets the characteristic "-or" or "-0r" suffix that was everywhere in early hacker and gaming culture. Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, writing like this was a badge of internet-insider status — part joke, part code, part tribal language. "Pix0r" is delightfully retro now, but it captures a specific era of online culture perfectly.
(slang, computing) Hacks, hacking.
(internet slang, leet) fuck (in various senses).
Fux0r is a leet (l33tspeak) variant of 'fuck,' swapping letters for numerals in the classic hacker/internet subculture style. It's an artifact of early internet and gaming culture from the late 1990s and 2000s, where replacing letters with visually similar numbers was both a style choice and a way to dodge content filters. Used in all the same ways as the original — as an expletive, a verb meaning to mess up or break something, or general internet trash-talk. Mostly nostalgic now, but still pops up in retro gaming and chan culture.
