It should be noted that Walmart already does this. Anyone who has a handheld device of the store’s is constantly tracked and monitored, and people will get called in to ask why they’re “wandering,“ which is usually in the process of trying to track down a CSM or Manager who are never possible to find.
"Chiba. Yeah. See, Molly’s been Chiba, too.’ And she showed me her hands, fingers slightly spread…Ten blades snicked straight out from their recesses beneath her nails, each one a narrow, double-edged scalpel in pale blue steel"
While Molly’s hand razors aren’t yet available, there’s plenty of...

LOGITECH HANDHELD SCANNER that is a dustbuster and we all know it (bc a true cyberpunk employs Tricky Misdirection Countermeasures) aside from that, this is, legit
Cyberpunk Potography by ANDEWNEF
I’ve always been inspired by photographers like Liam Wong, Noealz, and Steve Roe who became famous for doing cyberpunk and street photography in Japan and South Korea. I wanted to see if I could capture Taiwan in the same way…
However unlike them I’ve never been able to gain much of a following for my work —let alone sell any prints or make money. I don’t know if it’s because my work just simply isn’t that good, or I haven’t made the right connections with the right people… or a bit of both.
I know I have a terrible attitude and am horrible at making/maintaining friendships. In fact many people have accused me of being either a sociopath or on the spectrum. Maybe I’m both? I don’t know…
But the way I see it is that I’d just rather not deal with people. Why should the beauty and value of my work have to be tied to and artificially inflated by whatever relationship or connection I’ve made? Why do I have to play the stupid game of others when all I want to do is shoot, edit, repeat?
In response people often tell me to, “Just shoot for fun, or quit crying and figure out a way to turn your photograpahy into a successful business.”
Perhaps they’re right. Or perhaps not. Maybe if I just fully embrace who I am instead of trying to compromise to meet the expectations of society then things will work out.
Or maybe I’ll be forced to face the harsh reality that my failure to conform, adapt, and improve will result in me being a complete failure who must now fade into the great abyss and join the mass graveyard of failed artists no one ever heard of.
I guess the results of this ad will be a good indicator of what’s to come…

we live in the best possible version of cyberpunk
Fun fact: when I worked at the tv station, drug tests were required for everyone except the art department.

This is my least favorite cyberpunk future I gotta say.
My god this is the cyberpunk dystopia the 80s warned us of
Cities so tight on security there are cameras everywhere. Police killing people indiscriminately for their own joy. Giant walls being build across vast deserts. The rich living in their towers of glass. The poor on the streets with nothing. Internet in glasses. Corporate powers rule the White House. Wild roving gangs killing the “outsiders” Legit resistence networks run by punks. Religious groups have their own police forces. The net is being pressured to exclude the poor. Both fictional and literal representations of America are fash. Marketing brands are quite literally called “OBEY”. Corporate interests literally cut across sacred lands and pollute and destroy everything they touch. Hackers have become freedom fighters. Masked “anonymous” groups attempt to rip out criminals yet become the enemy of the state. Marketing is big bright and neon and meant to move your attention somewhere profitable The government said “fuck the planet” and now green energy is looked down on and discouraged. Corporations are treated as people. Weapons have more rights than citizens.
But at least we got the nifty cyberpunk music now too
