Cyberpunk

Anybody into cyberpunk? I really wish I had a holographic chick giving me a handy in the tank.

As a Science Fiction setting, the Cyberpunk Dystopia is fascinating. In particular the way it puts the concept of 'Humanity' itself under a lens. However, the idea of actually living it is deeply troubling. Especially as actual society seems to be backsliding into a Dystopia. "Boring Dystopia" being a term I see thrown around fairly often these days.

I does seem like we are headed to a boring dystopia more and more, except there probably won't be hovercars or ramen noodle airships. But we can expect bad weather, pollution, overpopulation, and general lawlessness.

I think southpark captured that concept perfectly...

The lack of Hovercars or cool Tech is the whole thing about a "Boring" Dystopia. Life doesn't get 'cool', it just stays the same, except with a Dystopia attached to it.

Yeah. What happens when your holo-girl brings a holo-shank and steals your tank?

This music video reminds me of a movie called "Her"
Its a really interesting look into the kinds of relationships humans could form with AI in a cyberpunk-ish type future. Cool movie but also a bit depressing.

Death Machine has a lot of the 90's cyberpunk atmosphere.

Not really. Just drifted away and drifted back.

I stumbled on the video in this link the other night. Has a large list of killer robots/cyborgs in 80's and 90's films.

Indiana Jones, say it’s not so - Why did you do it?

I know why, he was forced by Hans Solo forced to make the first Blade Runner (1982).

I did play Metro 2033 Redux for an hour then went to Fallout 4 for 2 hours and found myself in the backyard digging a hole for my bunker. Doomsday Prepper - still undecided.
