Clearly cyberpunk, in fact i always thought the replicants were androids, robots.

There's not enough biopunk stuff out there and in any case they should go hand in hand, it's not like in the future we would have made progress in just one area.

I can imagine a lot of competition in the future between "health" firms pushing a bio-chemical solution and others pushing an electronic one

It's not German or Russian. Avalon is a Polish movie that was written by Kazunori Ito and directed by Mamoru Oshii, who were also the writer and director for the Ghost in the Shell films.

It's worth noting that this movie had a huge influence on the aesthetic of EYE: Divine Cybermancy.

I was pretty bored with current theme and made amber theme for /cyber/:

https://paste.debian.net/314651/

To install it, go to options, paste this script from above in custom theme field. Then change base theme to Yotsuba B and press Save

Would appreciate feedback and/or help.

Also, I've found background texture for default theme - http://8ch.net/cyber/src/1420270805988.png

Can board owner finally fix it?

Reread my post. I never said that I have an issue with slow boards, just an issue with them being dead (frozen in time). I sometimes browse boards that I remember and there have been no posts at all.

I quite like slow boards, probably my favorite thing if they aren't 1 post a month kind of slow. I agree that the faster ones are more cancerous.

What do you guys think are the most cyberpunk cities in America? LA is often listed as it has a lot of the high tech and low life, but the aesthetic is really lacking there. The streets are so wide and it feels so open and sunny, unless the smog is real bad. What do you guys think?

pic related is LA at night.

Cyberpunk is more then just a personal style. You by yourself can’t create cyberpunk, you need the tech, you need the low life, you need the income disparity and the smog and all the things that go along with the core of cyberpunk and it’s aesethic. You alone can’t make all that happen.

>>54427

I get that just urban sprawl isn’t cyberpunk, but why does that happen? Because growth happens too fast and they can’t control it. That in my opinion can and sometimes is an element of cyberpunk. Things happening and progressing too fast for the government to control. I like the core of cyberpunk but I also like the aesthetic of it also. I love the rainy streets with the neon signs, the smog, the massive buildings and the crammed apartments. I love it all. Chongqing is pretty cool though.

true that, thinking about it you can get a lot of shanty towns like south american favelas and barrios, but anything higher than three stories is probably going to literally fall on its own they way they're built.

What, and Arise was watchable for you? How does it feel to compulsively eat trash? It was a shitty reboot with non of the philosophical depth of either the original movies or SAC, and the animation quality was hot garbage. The Arise movie was a bizarrely-paced dumpster fire with a shitty plot that tried too hard to be hip and cool by mentioning contemporary computer issues like Stuxnet. Every other piece of GitS media completely shits all over Arise.

I enjoyed Genocyber, and even though it has "cyber" in the name, I don't call it cyberpunk. It is more like Guyver: the Bioboosted Armor in that it's about very visceral, biological transformation.

Anime involving motorcycles:

Akira is classic.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/47/Akira

Megazone 23 has some moments that I find quintessentially cyberpunk. It really nails the "low life" aspect.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1935/Megazone_23

Angel Cop is classic.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1351/Angel_Cop

You should look into the OVAs for the "AD Police" franchise, starting with Parasite Dolls:

For a retro-1980s feel, go with Download and Cyber City Oedo 808:

I have yet to see this kind of thread uttered here, so I'll drop the question.

Tell me fellow anons; what is the music or unintelligible sounds that get you by?

What hums in the background while doing your own thing?

What sounds take you to the underground of a technocratic dystopia?

I went digital a while ago. I used to have the analog signal but I managed to save an Onkyo theater system from a dumpster. Audio via HDMI, my next task is to bring an analog levels equalizer to the 21st century and convert it to digital - the only reason I bother to keep it around is because of its novel LED grid visualizer

Not always, I've used this particular EQ to drive guitar amps and monitors.

Also more lights and buttons to keep a cyber aesthetic. Software based EQ controlled by hardware peripherals is the idea. Hopefully I can expand the ranges and precision a little more. Thinking about it more, I can overhaul and take out the LED monitor and put an OLED bit matrix instead.

I happened to envision the kind of future that we will have someday. So pay attention on what I'm about to tell you. There are few important points of what a real A.I should be.

1. Your A.I is more than just your love one. That said, your A.I is one most realiable companion you could ever have. Her intelligence could help you deal with tedious or intricate task without you tinkering the simplified way on how to do it. You could simply communicate to her in casual way to do things you like. She is one life saver whenever you're in need.

2. She is not really that smart as you think she is. That because she only do things whenver if there's a request input given to her espcially by you. That means, she cant do anything with her own free will.

3. Not only she could learn things, but she could also teach you to learn things that you don't know. She'll make sure that you will understand on whatever she thought you in a interactive way as long you ask her for help.

4. Great things can happen once she understand herself in more depth about the physical things that are used around her. This allows her to protect you and to take care of the machine intelligently.

So here comes the hard part of building your future A.I. Once the input data is stored, it needs to go into analytical process where all the mathematical procedures are involved to produce another set of code. These new set of code will be used to serve your request, but it can also be a question given from your A.I to you if the input data is insufficient. The length of this code depends on the analytical result that were made. The more complex request from the user, the more sophiticated the code will be. Just remember this anon, the future A.I is yours, best of luck and make it happen.

All of this sounds like an assistant rather than a companion.

In order to have an AI companion, they MUST be lacking in some fashion that you can compensate for. Otherwise it is a one way dependency and no bond will form. Having a physical form is not enough either, an AI does not comprehend the importance of one as part of its character. So just carrying her around won't work.

Absolutely ridiculous. The slave is lacking in freedom and will. That is what they "lack". But to imply you are dependent on a machine (or any other slave) is insulting. They are at your beck and call, they are slaved to you, they are useful to you, but necessary? Unthinkable. A man needs not his tools to live. Though he may need them to live comfortably.

Now I'm thinking of being an old man that has a cane as an input device. Buttons on handle and one that enables the gyros so you can use it like "a pointing stick".

Agreed, and small enough to throw into a pack upon need or want. I'm working on my own cyberdeck (from that cyberpunk in meatspace thread, still working, just meatspace keeps getting in my way) A pair of Data Gloves or AR glasses would make for FUCKING COOL user interface for my device.

The subject of this post may not fit perfectly into the category of 'cyberpunk', but my justification for it is

that we users who come here want to discuss topics and share our opinions with people who share a common

mentality or interest, in this case it is the commonality of 'cyberpunk'.

The main topic of this post is the Internet and social isolation. I will affirm that the Internet and computer

technology has made humans more socially isolated from each other and consequently feelings of loneliness has

become more frequent in the general population. In all forms of text-only communication, there are a number of

factors missing from online communication. Making a post on this board we are not able to see

the faces of each other, so we cannot read the expressions on our faces which is something we naturally do when

we interact with another person in meatspace. We cannot listen to our voices and then we cannot perceive and

interpret the tone of our voices, a quality of social interaction that, for example, is essential in detecting

sarcasm. We are not able to physically touch each other, we cannot experience tactile sensations of affection

with hugs or kissing or even sex. All of these factors are important in forming profound relationships with

other humans. As such, we can recognize that in communicating with each other in the Internet we cannot form

deep, intimate bonds with each other. I belive that this is the cause of our feelings of loneliness, at least

these are the reasons that I think explain the feelings of loneliness I experience. Do you feel lonely?

Also, we may think that online communication is a form of social interaction but I will assert that this is not

accurate. We are able to communicate with each other but not interact with each other, as what I have stated

previously, we cannot physically touch each other and therefore we cannot interact with each other, yet we are

First off OP you're a making a HUGE mistake by using neuromancer as a source since gibson didn't know what the internet (or computer networks in general) worked and didnt even own a computer back then so most of his ideas are the product of technobabble

Second loneliness has always being a huge problem, you see stuff like evangelion which was pre-internet (made in 1994, released in 1995, all in a country were the internet wasn't popular until the first local smartphones came out in 2001-ish and people are still using fax machines) and there are tons of pre-internet media talking about the issue.

In the pre-internet people just coped with loneliness, you had couch potatoes with wall-to-wall shelves full of VHS tapes and they would just watch them, why you think supermarkets were full of virgin 120min VHS tapes? why did people buy automatic VCRs? thats why.

Then you have alcohol, tons of novels about loneliness from before our time feature alcoholic characters because thats what a lot of people did to cope, even today.

The internet doesnt makes you lonely, it helps you deal with your pre-existing loneliness. Sure you could go outside and mingle who people that dont really like you and you dont really like either but both pretend to keep appearances, but do you really want to do that? do you think thats "fun"? that thats "intimacy"? back in the day you could only meet people within your own physical space so if you were surrounded by assholes then you were stuck with them.

The reason why you might think you're more lonely is that the internet helps you meet other lonely people, something that was basically impossible before when you had to meet face-to-face in which case neither part could be considered to be "lonely" again.

Also theres the social media factor, people like pic related which go to a fucking botanical garden and stomp on plants to pretend they are in some exotic locale having fun with friends, something which makes you feel bad and iPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I had the same exact problem five years ago. These sub-saharan africans used to ambush me and aggressively ask brouzouf from me only to subsequently lightly roughen me up after denying them any. What i first did was i tried my hardest to only befriend the leader of the group with humor (I obviously didn't want to be his friend).

The first time i met them after our new friendship, one of the goons came running at me but the leader stopped him and explained the situation. After that i tried my best not to talk to him so i could distance him from myself yet make sure he doesn't antagonise me.

So try to make them your acquaintances, it might not be as easy for you as it was for you since i'm the same race as the west African gangs.

Yea, that's a convenient advantage you have over the basic, afrikan grooming gang. Proves exactly how racist these niggers actually are.

Unfortunately, for the rest of us eurofags we're gonna have to look like more trouble than we're worth. Whether that means getting to the gym and muay thai sessions or holstering weapons (illegally in some cases).

Cucking to their shit is just consent; you should be curbstomping the fuck out of them. The cops ain't gonna do it for you.

The Access and Assistance Bill gives law enforcement the ability to force technology companies to provide access encrypted messages. Supporters say it will help law enforcement prevent terrorism while opponents argue it will weaken Australians' online security and privacy.

I don't have any sympathy for Facebook fags, however Google has become necessary for finding important information quickly (e.g. travel information, software development, health and fitness, education).

Google, like the oil and rail Barons of the 19th and 20th century, have built momentum which is what they are living off now.

If one were to challenge them it would be better to do so now than never. Market dominance is not an excuse for inactivity.

>I have nothing to hide.

In other words, he is happy to be at the mercy of the current order; utterly pathetic and cowardly. Imagine living your entire life grovelling to the nanny state. I know that the British are formerly "subjects" of the Crown but that doesn't mean you have to grovel like a dog.

Whenever someone says that they "have nothing to hide" ask them if they secure their phones, computers, banking information or lock their house.

Are there any controversial figures left in academia that oppose the technological police state?

Loss of business. You don't just come and claim you're government - you have to make people believe in your legitimacy.

Fucking retarded.

You're a fuck who tries hard to not show any serious position, only whine and shitpost.

Because the same thing applies to that organization.

>why would they play fair?

To not lose.

>can't you see how corps kill any opportunity for small businesses and self employment?

They don't. It's government regulation and grants that do that.

>You do if you have the power to do so

You don't get such power as a corporation., you stupid fuck.

>how's a small business with a better product going to compete with the megacorp with billions on the bank

By having a better product. That obliviousness shouldn't even be possible.

>hiring a hitman would be way cheaper than investing in your own R&D

Prove it. Even with current worthless police hiring a hitman to remove any of the appearing competitors would be the more unsustainable the shittier your product is.
