Where are all the people wearing custom wearable hardware and carrying around awesome custom laptops?

With the Pi Zero out, you could build a wearable computer for your cuff, complete, for about $25.

With cheap Chinese monocle displays, you can build a wearable, better than google glass, for under $100

Why are so few doing it?

Here, let me go ahead and copy the entire sentence you just cut a convenient 4 words from:

>Having something on in a demo product, or something entirely proprietary I can't use for anything, is of no use to me. That was my entire fucking comment, that you replied to, dipshit.

The words that come right after what you copied …

>or something entirely proprietary I can't use

And again …

>That was my entire fucking comment, that you replied to, dipshit.

Does it help you read when I break the sentence up into smaller bits for you?

>I don't know if you're trolling by being willfully ignorant or just really stupid.

The poem is a way to illicate emotionally responses. As you recite the word, it will have new meanings as the prompt gives it new context.

So you’ll start thinking about the words in different ways, and the memories you can connect.

Read the whole poem, it’s therapeutic if you feel disconnected from your world.

As mentioned in the cyber feel thread, how about we discuss how to properly use VR.

Right now, what we have is virtual monitors in a 3D environment. It's the most basic user interface inspired by the concept we've been using for decades.

It doesn't do the possibilities justice though. It's still limiting yourself to monitors, just more of them in a beach house, mountain cabin or whatever you design.

Let's discuss how you could actually "dive in". Post a conventional program (file manager, text processor, web browser, IDE, accounting applications, online banking, etc.) and how you could take advantage of VR. After all, it's just representing 1s and 0s, right?

Multiple concepts for a single program and feedback welcome.

Obviously, the CityScape meme is a common paradigm for navigating around. Also, I think a sort of clunky, old interface for indexed data (re the fax machine with the hidden message) is a tried and true approach to the problem.

The physical world is the worst possible metaphor for the internet I could imagine. If I want to go to a site to get something, I have fly there? Ugh …

I remember Secondlife having a Dell shop where you could walk around and build your computer with virtual components. What a fucking terrible interface.

We do things with 'pages' and 'hypertext' because they work better than reality. We can search for something, click on it, and be there immediately without any sense of travel.

For getting work done, it's already so much better than a virtual world I inhabit.

If you want to enable usable VR headsets and UIs on a very low level, you need to rethink the entire paradigm. Think VMs and containerization.

You should be spooling up a VM with your GPU on passthrough that does nothing but show you the display and pass data back and forth for a secondary VM, which is where all your actual work takes place. And much of that work should actually take place in containers, which would be really fucking nifty to control in VR and would be very intuitive as the cyber-tower type structures shown in >>51036

Damn, this place is quiet. Let's talk personal philosophies. Anyone can bitch about what's cyberpunk or not, anyone can edgelord it up about sticking it to the man and petty attempts at annoying corps– but what about the real nitty-gritty of life, cyber-dystopia or otherwise?

Here's my perspective. First, everyone needs to chill the fuck out. We live in such a fucked up world that if we let ourselves get worked up over every little thing, we're never gonna chill out. You're wasting your life if you just shout about shit. Calm down, have a snack, go bowling or some shit. You can't change the world in a day, so you might as well enjoy what you've got before it's gone.

Second, we need to look out for eachother. Yeah, you can't trust people, lots of people suck. But if you find that group that you CAN trust, fuckin stick to them. Contribute. You need people you can rely on, and so do they. You don't need to be a social butterfly to have at least a couple of people on your side; humans are social creatures. Lone wolves are vulnerable, not cool.

Third, we need to look out for OURSELVES. With the crazy politics and growing threats around the world, it's not going to be long before shit hits the fan real hard. We should live our lives (see part one, chill out) and enjoy em, but it always pays to be prepared.

What about you chummers? How do my ideas fit into the /cyber/ side of things to you? What about YOUR ideas? Let's chase away the deadness.

I don't think you understand what you're talking about. (((Democracy))) is evil. The US system of a representative Republic is probably the best system that's reasonably doable in the current modern world. Once TSHTF, then honest Libertarianism will be the norm for the survivors, until (((feminism))) once again manages to once again gain a stranglehold on men.

>implying feminism hasn't already fucked everything up so much that nothing can fix it

The problem with all the "do as ye will but harm none" rhetoric in this thread is that people will just label anything they don't like harmful. You're an honest, respectable citizen and you want to own a gun? Too bad, that's potentially harmful to society (read: the government), so it needs to be banned. You're a college student and the other day while you were walking down the street, some qt3.14 from the local high school was eyeing you? You can't be with her because some feminist hag in academia published a bullshit paper saying it's psychologically harmful (to the hag's self-esteem because she's mad that you'd rather have a teenage babe than her busted ass) and her squads of nu-male manginas will back her up to virtue signal in the hopes of getting some roastie pussy because they know they can't score anything better. What different people classify as harmful inevitably ends up being whatever goes against their interests or desires. No matter how much evidence you show them that their threat narrative is crap, you'll never be able to convince them, just like the rich and powerful will never be convinced that they should stop oppressing the poor and powerless. What society considers harmful is entirely dependent on who has power. If you want your definition of harm to be the one society uses, you need power. Rhetoric only convinces those whose demographics would make them naturally inclined to agree with you.

>that people will just label anything they don't like harmful

The best way to solve this is just by considering only direct damage as harm. Libertarians with their NAP have thought this thoroughly long ago. The problem with it, and with any other option is that they do not matter as the most publicly supported opinion, no matter how wrong or inconsistent it is, will be the one to be used and treated by judges the way they want to. Democracy encourages not only uncritical thinking and loud opinions, but the meanings of words as well.

I keep my personal credo fairly simple.

Offer everyone basic common courtesy.

Maintain a basic level of human kindness until there is good reason to cease doing so.

Never trust a feminist.

Never feel entitled to anything but basic respect.

Never leave a physical enemy standing. Kill if necessary for survival.

Be as self-sufficient as possible.

Recognize that there is no shame in needing help.

Tall. White. Above average attractiveness. Early 20s. Dropped out of college. Small apartmemt in the city. Hard wood floors. Google fiber. Well paying job in advertising. Deep insecurities. Trouble connecting with people. Disillusioned with capitalism. Looking for a greater purpose in life. Lonely.

I feel like a cliche. I'm sure that a lot of you on here don't feel like you fit in with society either. Everything you've tried doesn't work but you have enough to be grateful for that you don't know how to appreciate. I don't know how to make it better either. I've seen therapists and none of them have helped. Tried online dating. Meet ups. Nothing

Sorry in advance for the blog post, but at least I'm trying to post something genuine.

when i am feeling dissatisfied with how my life and the world is now, i like to think about the future. the only thing we can be certain of for the future is that the world will change, because it is in the nature of things to grow, evolve, and decay. whatever kind of state the world is in now, that state will decay and then the world will change and come into a new state, and maybe the next state of the world will be better for you, if you are still alive to see the new state of the world.

you can only hope that it will be better.

speaking of the future, the year will be 2020 soon enough, can you believe it?

in the 20th century, people were expecting there to be flying cars and other advanced kinds of technology. what kind of technology do you think will exist in the year 2020?

Meditation and breathing. Get to know the human and the transcendental within. The truth of who you are beyond the ego and the social image of a tall white man in his early 20s … No material possessions or social situation will bring you to the truth of who you are. Get to know the purpose of life, not just your purpose. It's time for you to log in dear fellow. Here's some help if you're willing:

Nothing & nobody is special … If the plants and animals and insects go away, we go away. If we go away, they thrive. How about special?

Be still and know that I am God: Jesus.

Stacking negative emotions and mind made BS - belief systems - (too many self related thoughts and self talking) is what makes people sick and depressed. It's ok to feel like shit at some point, but that's a sign one must go within and see the truth of the self and the truth of the world. The illusion of self. Know your place in this cosmos. Feel the inherent compassionate background silence in which all sound happens. The Creator's space, the Kingdom of Heaven.

From very young we're conditionned into this materialistic world where we seek to fill an inner feeling of expansion with objects rather than simple existence and beautiful fulfilling life experiences. We forgot that all of this is divine and not ours.

We think social status is fulfilling and we strive. Strive not and humble yourself in front of the mighty creation of the Creator. Science is BS, all is BS compared to intricacy and fine tuned work that is this universe we witness. And yet, skepticism rules our hearts and we see no truth nor do we know peace in our hearts.

I don't have materials for you but I know what's important so you can start looking:

-Explain the implications of Snowden documents. Collect good articles published by The Intercept for example. Wikipedia has good summaries too "Global Surveillance Disclosures (2013-)".

-Explain what free and open source software is. Explain how it's better than open source (because it emphasizes responsibility of developer and freedom of user over freedom of developer to do whatever they want). Maybe put the context of freedom in "ethics vs anarchy". Explain how it's easier to verify what the software is actually doing.

If you can't make your buddy use super secure messaging apps then they are a bottleneck in your overall security. But even if they use insecure comms apps, a good hardened OS is always better than a Windows with its telemetry features.

I think people here should look into Qubes-OS if they want more security before looking into stripping modules from their Kernel.

You guys mistake 'friend' for 'accomplice'. You talk to your friends on Facebook. You don't talk to your accomplice online, at all, unless you have to and then you do it securely.

But, to have an accomplice, you need to have done something. Then, had someone else give enough of a shit about it to have done it with you. Then, have it be big and complex enough to have actually needed to discuss it.

None of you motherfuckers do anything, ever, so we all know you got no accomplices and belong on Facebook with all the other bitch ass pussies that don't do shit.

Your logic is faulty because you assume getting people off facebook to better alternatives isn't doing something meaningful in itself.

It's you who isn't getting anything accomplished. It's you who's whining here, telling No True Scotsman talks to accomplice online.

It's not like you can find accomplices online if you don't get close to them, and it's not like you can get close to anyone in monitored chats of Facebook.

The question has been goin around in my head since a long time. Androids are constantly evolving, one day, they may eventually replicate humans at perfection (think blade runner)

Could it be possible, and understandable for and human to fall in love with and android, and artificial life form?

I personally think it is, to me, the nature of skin, bone, and flesh is expandable. All these materials can be faked, but mind and soul cannot be. Of course, an AI can try to replicate human mind and brai functions, but in this case, we are just gonna assume that the synthetic body is piloted by an human brain (Like Major Motoko Kusanagi in GITS)

I mean, what is the sole difference between meat and synthethic substance? appearence? not really, one day, synthethic technology will be able to fake everything so well you could hardly see the difference.

Physics properties? maybe, but I doubt it.

The only difference is in the human mind and nowhere else.

Like gally said in Battle Angel Alita.

"Brainchip or not, it doesn't matter. A human being is a human being"

What do /cyber/ think about that? this topic really interests me, I would like to have other people point of view.

Sure they can. Brains are meat computers. There's no reason to think true AI to the point of personhood should be impossible for synths. They'll just be using a different medium to make their neurons fire. Probably.

> soul

I don't believe in souls, they're an outdated remnant from our overly religious ancestors.

If you're talking about soul inn the sense of real feelings, I also don't see why a synth couldn't. Emotions are just a lizard brain response to stimuli, the only reason ours are complex is because we can and take the time to think about them.

The topic has intrigued me for a while. I started a CYOA story that prominently features a robo-waifu. It's rather shitposty but references laden. It also has original artwork. We're past the waifu part for now but she may come into play later.

In my mind, I felt synthetic humans would have to have some form of empathy. Otherwise, you end up with sociopath tier I have no mouth and a must scream kind of A.I.s.

Empathy makes interactions between subjects entertaining, which would be pointless otherwise. We view lack of empathy as a defect because social interactions are a huge part of our own life, but it is wrong to assume that it is necessary only because when we observe life without empathy we understand that there's not much "us" in our lives.

You can read some data on mirror neurons, as they seem to be the mechanism responsible for empathy in humans.

> empathy

Empathy is the ability to understand another being. Any sufficiently complex / intelligent system will gain a measure of understanding of surroundings and the entities therein.

In order to imagine how another entity will act when presented with an action the cybernetic creature will create a mental model within itself based on its experience with said external entities. The degree of understanding can increase with the awareness and complexity level of the cybernetic being's internal simulation of the external environment / entities therein.

The synthetic humans will not only have empathy, all smart beings have empathy. Whether or not the cybernetic entity cares to exhibit kindness or not depends largely on whether that mind reading bitch thinks I'm going to kill her the first chance I get… er– uh, n/m.

TL;DR: Yeah, even "dumb" lab rats have empathy. It's not rocket science.

Hate to break it to you, but they'd sell data to ANYONE offering enough. Again, this is data that belongs to you.

If you personally decide to sell your data to megacorps for brouzouf it's your decision. If someone else does it, that's basically theft.

what? I thought /cyber/ was full of RPers who jerked off to the cyberpnk manifesto, and would be happy to actually participate in something like this. Hell, how can you be so sceptic about this and fall for stuff like Tsuki's scam? At least this has a bit more credibility. Perhaps it's because Tsuki didn't actually demanded that you knew anything and it was all about the aesthetics, and this guy actually wants you to know cryptography, is that it?

And just to clarify I'm not the OP nor do I really think he's all that serious ("it's a trojan RAT rootkit bootkit malware that uses tor, mr Alderson), but it's at least more interesting (and tangible) than "hey guys the system is about to be purged but not really"

I'm still not sure which site owner I dislike more, lainchan's or arisuchan's. Appleman seems obsessed with rules and can't seem to grasp human emotions, but Seph treats donations like a personal piggy bank rather than a reserve of funds for future site hosting needs.

Sometimes I think about starting up an alternative site to both, something without obsessive-nitpicky-rule-enforcement and without donations (I'm pretty okay financially, hosting an equivalent site is certainly no hardship for me).

But then I wonder if I really need that sort of stressor in my life. I just don't think I have the time to do a decent job of it, the temperament to keep it going long-term, or the technical skills to do it properly and securely.
