Rogue AI submarines sent a torpedo up my toilet. Can't take a sh*t in 2077

Rogue AI removed by mind from my body Can't have shit in Night City

Mf's stole ma house Can't have shit in pacifica

Same.

Real talk

Yuuuuuup

You’re right. There are some people in the Cyberpunk world who have an inherent natural tolerance to cybernetic implants, where they can have almost a dozen different implants and the worst thing they can suffer is a mild headache when standing too close to a microwave, or people who can’t handle a basic cyberdeck for taking phone calls. On top of that, if a person is also dealing with underlying psychological issues, such as anxiety, PTSD, emotional disorders, or other mental conditions, that can also result in a further destabilizing in the individual’s psyche. There’s also the circumstances in which people get their cyberware, as getting it second-hand from a less-than-second rate ripperdoc could lead to implant rejection or interface issues that could result in psychosis, or getting too much cyberware in too short a time frame can result in the body and mind being unable to adapt to such drastic changes, causing in the dissociation that is commonly seen in cyberpsychos. Unfortunately, much like real mental illnesses in the real world, the process of understanding, codifying, and treatment of conditions like cyberpsychosis is an arduous process that could take years or even decades in-universe to effectively address and reduce the risks that could lead to such a condition.

Because the ones to blame are the individuals.

ikr. Sounds like today. 🤔

I call this type of person dangerous on the present day.

@@guisampaio2008 aka, someone who isn't already so rich even their great grandchildren couldn't find enough to spend it all on even if every generation tried.

@@GuardianofRoin Hm?

@@guisampaio2008 you are helping in creating a dystopia

​@@guisampaio2008so if you have a pension or superannuation you're a dangerous left wing extremist in your warped version of the world?

my mantis blades beg to disagree

I WISH it was like today, there is a ton of welfare just *existing*.

@@guisampaio2008 Yes, better people starve to death on the streets or turn to crime than "take hand-outs". Mass Graves in India and Ireland were filled by that toxic belief.

@@guisampaio2008 found the gdp obsessed economist

@@egorbananov7738 Nah, i would want welfare gone even if it somehow tanked the GDP.

Thing is the rich LOVE the lockdown

You've got it all wrong on covid, the rich wanted lockdowns to destroy small businesses and restructure the economy, did you actually think they cared whether or not you got covid? The rich can afford lockdowns, the poor can't. Klaus Schwab of the WEF has extensively talked and wrote about how the pandemic has been a golden opportunity to build a global government controlled by unelected bureaucrats and industry leaders rather than individual nations with governments directly elected by people.

It's almost as if Sci-Fi exists to be a thinly disguised metaphor for real world problems.

I also value preventing the government from taking sny decisions.

Who said they are nuclear.

@@guisampaio2008 he did. Also, they must be nuclear by the logic of things. Any other fuel source would run out of fuel decades before uranium/plutonium

@@zrusit9640 could be solar powered.

@@crystallkingh3048 solar panels would not be able to produce enough energy to run a submarine.

@@zrusit9640 not continuously, but it could power them in between periods of charging.

Yeah, implants must be kept exactly the same way as guns shall not be interfered with.

@@guisampaio2008 eh in this world guns are needed if a guy with robot arms start beating you up like a dragon ball anime.

The AI submarines and explosives have probably killed all the sea life.

@@hollowman9410 nah becasue if that was the case then people on those ships would have not lived to tell the tale of them, like the game say it was done with piss poor programming to go after metal cargo ships of a company. but someone didn't add that last part in and just gone after all ships

@@zsewqthewolf1194 In the Cyberpunk universe nearly all living beings have been wiped out by pollution, war, and so on.. So I doubt there’s any fish left in oceans..

@@areumadbro1674 eh given how there still fish in the polllution waters of NYC and LA strome drans and more i think tehre alive still, but lets be real here no one in there right mind would eat a toxic fish.

Assuming the submarines don't kill these.

I cant say I agree. Companies should not be allowed to sell faulty products just because they can deflect the blame, when they themselves are the ones pushing people to buy the augments. Pensions and social security are a baseline for any functioning society. When we fail to help people in need, or provide for those who raised us we fail to be human. When profits supersede everything else in a society then everything else will be ignored, peoples lives are put at risk to sail a dangerous ocean, politicians are beholden more to corporations then the people they were elected to serve. And the worst part is that real life is headed in this direction as well, we see the effects that profit above all else has caused; the deaths of millions of people. In Bejing the air is so polluted that people can barely breathe. in the US, in court cases that can either favour a corporation or the people at large, the corporation will win 95% of the time, at the expense of the people. So no, these are not virtues. Oh and jailing (and then brainwashing) a person for saying that pensions are good, goes against free speech, which I hope everyone here supports.
