too real.
i just talk out loud using terms from cyberpunk 20xx if I mess with anything outside the walled gardens of my family's laptops or even my own stuff now
using archive.is to get a round a paywall is just breach protocol.
i jack into every phone or tablet i touch.
installing an ad blocker and firefox on my mom's new laptop is netrunning. shit watch out for ICE (two meanings there lol)
it at least makes it a little fun i guess to live in the fantasy of a cyberpunk dystopia but at least we have cool implants and where gender affirming care is like having a wart removed
That's not Cyberpunk but Battle Network /lh
All of the terms you mentioned were originally coined by William Gibson in his novel Neuromancer (published in 1984 btw). I couldn't finish the story, but his prose is incredible as always, it's worth reading at least a chapter of it. He also coined the word cyberspace. I thought that was cool!
