    I have an artificial lens in one eye (like a contact lens that’s been glued in place) that has built in uv protection. Not cybernetic as such, but I’d say it was adjacent.

    I like the word “burgerpunk” to describe our dystopia not as neon lights and cool sexy cyborgs but more the aesthetic of a DoorDash ad.

      Amazing. What’s more burgerpunk than making AI images about burgerpunk game concept art?

      Coming to buggy early access 2025 on EA games subscription app

      Prompt:

      !physical game cover for latest game called “burgerpunk” inspired by boring, mundane real world problems. Collage of run down strip malls, boring office spaces, high gas prices and sad people stuck in traffic. “Super boring, 10/10 - IGN” !<

    I want to be a cyborg but after seeing how tech, especially software, has developed (like, I don’t even really want to buy a new car because how tf am I gonna fix it), I don’t think I can trust it. Imagine if your ears’ firmware just stops being supported.

    Any cybernetics would have to be built for me by a hobbyist with a workshop full of Raspberry Pis or something
