we have none of the cool aspects of cyberpunk but all of the bad ones.
well, we have pills to change gender, pills to talk to God, we can immediately reach out to most humans in the world without moving, and we have a lot of fascists to kill
we can immediately reach out to most humans in the world without moving
That window has been closing since 2008. We interact with who we’re supposed to interact with. The chances of me hearing the plight of a third world farmer directly from his mouth is slim to none.
Oh the proper channels are closing.
But the improper ones are opening more.
Heck, were seeing analysis of how US liberal media suppresses violence against Palestinians less than a year after in happened. During the cold war that would be ten years.
I’d say that’s mostly Tiktok/China holding up a mirror to the west. As soon as some deal is struck between them and China, that too, will stop
I said we can, I never said we do. More possibilities doesn’t mean better possibilities.
Acsshually it’s more likely that you’re talking to a bot trying to pass as a human than a human. That’s as punk as it gets.
Cigarettes that need batteries, cheap led blue lights to stop the homeless from shooting up, electric cars and robot dogs for the elites, giant corporations infecting politics
We’re in it bub for a very long time.
i mean we have smart watches for 80 bucks, that’s pretty neat. air fryers are cool too
Air fryers are not the first thing that come to my mind when I think cool cyberpunk, probably is not even the 100th thing.
well i for one quite like having perfect fries on demand without risking burning my house down
without risking burning my house down
as long as a netrunner doesn’t hack it
what, you don’t remember the air fryier scene from Johnny Mnemonic?
Can someone please get Elon addicted to Stardew Valley? Maybe we can change the world if we change its biggest baby.
He doesn’t use the drug he sells. LoL Stardew Valley is on all Teslas, playable with controllers.
Tho I do wish…He does all joja playthtoughs
I mean, it’s close.
But this is like if neuromancer was written by Tom Sharpe instead of William Gibson.
We’ve been in a cyberpunk timeline for a while now.
And I’m making a new years resolution right now to make it even more so, emphasis on the punk.
The Cyberocalypse will not be streamed.
Watching a documentary on NEOM and all the other Neo-EPCOT plans of the Saudis, and I’m starting to wonder if we’re heading into a Cyberpunk & Digital Dystopia OR if that is just the facade of a future that all these billionaires and financial firms are using to scam us into a much more analog and material dystopia as they monopolize all the real resources and real estate in some post-modern form of feudalism.
Yeah should a known we’d be getting shitty side of a tech society
Still have cp77 in my backlog… maybe this is a good time to give it a whirl.
That’s the deepest fried image ever posted.
+1 Insightful. Meme-brained thinking is inferior thinking, so let’s all try to stop doing it.
when you put it that way, things don’t seem so bad. cyberpuuuunk!
Sauce?
… Where’ve you been?
Apparently under a rock.
It sounds quiet. Can I join? I’ve got some leftover mince pies
You can cut out the middleman and just link directly to Bing
well that’s how I’ve heard of the news too… was away for the christams vacations so I’m a little out of the loop
