I've added more links to the Assorted Links paste. That's where a lot of the links are right now, but I plan on making either separate documents for each category (security/privacy, media, etc), or just one paste with categories in it.

What's the most cyberpunk linux distro?

lainchan radio is da best,

Use debian. Just... it's the best. Not run by any corporation, free software, solid support.

Debian.

doesnt this belong more on lit?

>tfw can't be a cyber punk because you work as a dev for a large soulless international corporation which gives no fucks about morality of its business practices and even though you're just a small cog you still enable those

Solus

Qubes

being a corp.drone has it perks or so i heard

You can be a corp """""slave """"" by day just to keep up appearances, and be schway as fuck by night.

This is a cyberpunk thread.
Feeling sad about giant corporations is not the cyberpunk way. Come back when you've started stealing the company's trade secrets and selling them for cryptocurrencies to a competing Chinese conglomerate.

You're welcome to fork this thread.

I miss the old cyberpunk threads, we kept em up for quite a long time, when the irc was active. The sub culture is pretty dead though, lain it up mates

What's a /cyb/ approved laptop? I think that the t420 would be a good choice.

get some of that anti-cold soykaf from the pharmacorp, braliukas

Gentoo/Funtoo

hi again /cyb/. have this picture of one of my implant testing sites. i miss the old cyberpunk culture too - always wanted to live like that when i was a kid. i pretty much still do. anyway, more posts when i have a document for you. --L

What the fuck

Solus is a gateway into Cyberpunk.

What's the small cut on the left? Botched insertion?

It's not like you have much options.
Just try to do your best to help freedom in the internet when you can.

Also this.

Dipshits stick RFID chips into their skin and then yell LMAO IM SO CYBERPUNK TRANSHUMANISM LOOK AT ME

is pretty good indeed

What do you mean by "implant"?
Is it some kind of body modification?

If you believe someone implanted a chip in your hand to monitor you and came to the point of cutting your flesh to remove it, you probably have schizophrenia or some other kind of paranoid disorder.
Go talk to a psychiatrist asap.

in context of
You might want to reintroduce yourself,
your experiments are causing confusion. kek

I still have no use for one,
i do however have plans about using one of the RFID-msp430's,
which are passively powered.
Those could amongst others emulate a mifare,
but there are quite a lot of applications.
truly schway chips


just found this haptic interface

It doesn't make it any less retarded to shove RFID chips under your skin.
>Look! I can be in 1984 before it's even 1984! My subway pass is built right into my hand!

>security/privacy, media
Oh yes, please do

Jesus, you can't shill any harder.

technical details when?

welcome to REAL cyberpunk kids

The one you customize.

Seriously, I'd go for Source Mage GNU/Linux just for that but other people can probably optimize Gentoo pretty well too.

Are you giddings me? :^)

Just imagine you're this lady.

Cyb is all about imagining

I am worried about remote readout
of mifares, as well as software security in implants.
There is a reason the Cyborgs eV exists after all.

This is the only way.

BIG thanks, missed that.

cont.
finally found the datasheet:

Me too, that is why biopunk should be strongly promoted. Not only to offer an alternative in case shtf but because we are already been hacked by multitude of bio agents. And imagine if megacorps get to close source an important discovery, doesn't need to be a genetic backdoor just the only known schematics for the production of certain enzyme.

So far attempts at close sourcing biological models have been unsuccessful and reverse engineering the genome is widely regarded in the scientific community in contrast with electronics. Can't say the same on specific processes and chemical formulas though.

if you dont have a:
>portable piratebox with battery packs
>zsun sd card reader and battery packs as dead drops
>portable hardkernel micro pc with at least 4 SDR and understand everything about SDR and has battery packs and solar chargers.

>a hackrf one hardwaorgas well as a portable DVAP DV with rastberry pi with battery packs and a mobile wifi to access the network under a vpn

you arent a cyberpunk yet sorry kiddo..

I have a T420 and it's.....................


not bad.

except it jumped on the systemd bandwagon

that's pretty cyberpunk
you're just another element

who else here /bearpajamas/

I /comfyshorts/ here

antix then

I kind of want them, but no:
/labcoatinbed/

Bio is "just" yet another Element.
It does not offer alternatives,
however might be very complementary in the future.
(I still think meat doesn't scale *grin*)
The protection from certain xenobiotic substances of
detrimental effect might become important.

You silly billy, having access to the tech before is arrived is pretty damn smart.

And don't act like iBody wouldn't be on Apple's plan, or any other big tech corporation for that matter.

You are doing good, trust me. Beyond whatever reasons you may have we need more crazy biohackers like you.

God helps us if the community doesn't grow in time for the major cybernetic breakthroughs and the world has no other alternative than iFlesh.

>Not having a jacket with antennas built in to the seams

>antix then
I've taken to using gentoo with openrc myself
It's much more flexible and very well documented. I still use Debian for certain machines but systemd is a threat to freedom and OS security

I wish Devuan had taken off but unfortunately a large majority of backing and dev contributions are corporate and that means supporting systemd

As someone in the bio science community, of course I'm going to push for bio. That said, doesn't care what element is made an arm from if its doing its job. What really concerns me is the current state of body enhancements and the horrible direction all is going.

We need open source or else you won't get high tech coupled with low life. It doesn't work that way and the biotech industry has shown something of the like. Describing what is happening to the biotech industry and why is in need of open source is a long story so I limit to suggest googling for Patent Trolling and Eroom's Law to anyone with questions.

To me as well,
biotech seems to be where IT was in the 90s, but with the horrible direction all is going

>I've added more links to the Assorted Links paste.
Big thanks. Makes the effort worth it.

Let's keep this alive, last one was a pretty good run.

>Also: Which of thenegative developements did you mean in
Just in R&D you can see statistics where the numbers are sinking. Costs rise and final products never get to the market. This is one of the things I meant when directing to patent trolling and erooms law for background. PT is kind of obvious, people who patent or buy patents just to hoard them and kill competition, not to actually develop anything, ANYthing. Result, we have the opposite advancement that electronics and we call it Eroom's Law, as in the opposite of Moore's Law.

It would be funny but actually it isn't. Just think for a second how many people depends on medication to live. And drugs not directly linked to survival will not see the light if the corporation owning the patent can't find a way to control its entire production, thus, any research showing great benefits of any kind. TL;DR you won't see any drug if it isn't hard to create, even if it is more potent in several orders of magnitude.

As one major concern is what you would get if something similar to what happened in Deus Ex HR happens, when one guy has a trait of not depending to a drug for functioning. You won't see shit and they'll make you depend on drugs for life.

Finally, although not is not all there is to say, body modifications as simple as resistance to some illnesses can actually being banned thanks to mass media bigotry sponsored by big corps as an attempt to suppress freedom from dependence, and independent, open source research and development banned as illegal for using "proprietary" assets.

A grim future that is.

As in driving all of the current negative technological developements:
The problem is a social one,
and the war is fought in the mind of the consumers/people.

linux from scratch, gentoo, slackware, funtoo

Deep and accurate user.

We need counterculture to at least patch society. We need more hackers, as in the original concept. And biohackers as much as cyberhackers in my opinion.

installed debian/HURD recently
Pretty schway and fun to use.
Has the debian installer, Emacs, Iceweasel and nice desktops.
(installed on old p4, took ~7h to install, not kidding)

Took note, however have only problems and no solutions to add.

Not radio, but have you tried
Sup Forums.org/gif/ylgl

The immediate need is getting hackers, they don't need to be bookworm scientists but should be interested in experiment with whatever is available ala Lepht.

Long term solution is having patents with GPL-like terms of use, and for that we need some entrepreneur basing his business on open sourced tech.

>tfw Talos rip
>tfw no POWER-based computer in an SGI-case

lol nice i recently converted my ps3 to a dhcp and dns server. i occasionally use my ps3 to crack hashes

Cool thread.

Don't get it?

Hello friend.
Hello friend? Thats lame. Maybe I should give you a name. But thats a slippery slope. You're only in my head. We have to remember that.
Shit. Its actually happened, Im talking to an imaginary person.

What Im about to tell you is top secret, a conspiracy bigger than all of us.
Sup Forums is a front for international commercialism.

that's cool, I wonder what other threads in Sup Forums are cyberpunk related
