Isn't it kind of unrealistic that somebody would spend all of their money on a toy as stupid as this one while continuing to live in a slum apartment eating insect protein ramen?

she was a cheap whore probably cost the same as a nintendo game

Idk, why do poor people irl buy games consoles, ipods, and televisions they don't need?

He spent his entire paycheck + bonus on that portable projector

Is it really any different from the morons who resort to financing to get a new iphone they can't afford every couple of years?

I would pay for that shit. It's no worse than, say, watching anime

In all seriousness if I could pay for an ultra-realistic waifu to flawlessly pretend to love me, I'd happily live in the same conditions

*shoves her off*

No user. No it is not.

people spend a sizeable portion of their income on entertainment. i would imagine for some people a holowaifu would be the most fulfilling type of entertainment imaginable

K is probably not allowed to have a replicant gf because he's a replicant himself, and no one wants to be his friend because everyone hates cops and skinjobs in BR. So the holo waifu is a good and effective alternative companion that lets the replicant not feel lonely or unfulfilled

Literally no different than people who spend all their money on drugs and useless shit every paycheque

What's the male version like

Think about how often you post online to simulate social activity and how often you masturbate
Then reconsider your question

Really?
Why do poor niggers buy $500 Jordans when they can't pay their rent on time? Why do people take mortgages out on houses to go on vacation? Why do people go to college and rack up ten-thousands of debt?

if i have the choice i will do exactly the same as K

companionship is the most human of desires user it's what we all want even the small amount of validation to our existence this website provides it still fulfills some need. people are would easily be willing to spend money for it.

Do we have a Joi version of "do it for her" yet?

It's like you didn't even watch the movie.
Where else is he going to go?
What else is he going to do?
What else is he going to spend his money or time on?

you keep me interlinked
you keep me interlinked
you keep me interlinked

la la la la la

Think about it this way. WallaceCo makes replicants and Joi. If you're rich enough to buy a human, you can do just that. Joi is for the everyman who can't afford a pleasure model of their own.

That was the most realistic thing in the entire film desu. Most men would live a life of squalor to spend time with a waifu like that.

it's called JOE

why is she interlaced like an old TV signal?

I spent my entire paycheck on a console once.
What's the difference?

Y-Yeah. W-Who would do that?

t. roastie

cuz of the guy who take the screen? who knows? who care?

Make one

>implying instagram followers want to watch some shitty skyline over her

This is already happening in Japan.

You underestimate the power of waifuism

I spent my entire paycheck on a Glock

He blew all his bonuses on Joi

Wouldn't a better question be why the fuck a replicant even gets paid? Why isn't he just working as a police slave? He stays in a room at the station, and they supply him with the necessary amount of food. What the fuck does he need money to buy shit for?

I spent my entire paycheck on a Lexus IS.

capitalism, with a little paycheck he participate much more for the society

Did it say that in the movie? I must have missed where they said her cost...

I think it was more implied. After the baseline test he was told he could pick up his bonus. After he gets home he gives Joi the emanater

This is the saddest thing I have ever watched

looks /comfy/ like a simpsons thread tbqh

Was meant for

probably the same reason why they're implanted with memories; you're given a better product if you give them some minor individuality maybe? but yeah this is why history will repeat itself in the BR universe and humans will probably go extinct this time.

I tried

You look lonely...

I don't think money is a huge issue for k, he was able to afford that cool Peugeot spinner with the drone

The spinner is police department issued

Then why didn't they take it off him after he failed his baseline? It has to be personal property

Right so it could cost something like half his bonus not his entire bonus. Jesús.

Shit, I left a clipping error

You have choice of having Joi who is designed to be perfect waifu but you cannot touch or feel her . You can one night a month hire a hooker to simulate her physical form

Or, have a plain looking human gf who you can fuck whenever you please but also have some emotional problems

Which do you choose?

If I pick option A do I have to hire the hooker?

You're assuming JOI is expensive

Because we're programmed to need love and feels a lot more than we need a nice house and top quality food. We're you even watching the movie, user?

having limited autonomy and a bit of a life outside of work probably makes them more able to digest the stresses of an intense job like blade running and makes it less likely they rebel violently. replicants working in mines or something similar probably don't get anything close

>unrealistic that somebody would spend all of their money on a toy as stupid as this one

Nah man, people spend their money on all sorts of stuff they don't need, even when they could better their situation by saving the money or using it on other things.

No fan of Lennon, but his famous lyric, "All you need is love", comes to mind here.

You don't eat insect protein ramen and live in one of the wealthiest nations in the world.

the better question is: did she develop a unique kind of love towards him or was she just programmed that way? and if her being programmed that way makes her love for him any less legitimate?

CELLS

I would eat insect ramen every day if it meant I could have a waifu.

It's clear that some time after he uploads her to the emanator, probably when she calls the whore up, that she's developing personality uniqueness.

Are you new here? Plenty of people would

I guess.
Wallace's deal with newer ones is that they just straight up don't rebel. Except... you know, when all the ones in the movie do/have, so maybe that's just a sales pitch.

iirc the only nexus 9 we see rebelling is K, and that's under pretty exceptional circumstances

So the movie has themes like that while also being "cybernoir"? I need to see it sounds a movie made for me.

kek

Even if, I don't see many other ways to spend the money.
What would he do, go to the pub with friends?
Buy a toy for the children?

She was jealous because Joi was more beautiful then her. Women are envious even of ai.

if Wood is rare, then trees are rare.........how do they breath?

...

Where do they get fruit from? What about rubber? Coffe? Cocoa?

I really want a poster of this scene. Joi is life.

>even the air is synthetic.

Someone answer this

Oxygen factories

Off world colonies

haha if you want to say "bacon" in a Jamaican accent just say "beer can" in a British one, lad!

algae

Theories and speculation?

>Off world colonies for that stuff
I guess that's it, speaking of those, I wonder how good old DICK imagined those looking.

haha boy I could sure use some good ol' dick right now, if you uh, catch my meaning?

Was Joi a person in the end or was she just a hoax of 1s and 0s?

>just b urself

Person.

Over 90% of O2 is produced by algie

They are probably less complicated than a replicant
How far off are you from a hoax of brain cells?

b-but muh rainforests

algae, bud

More importantly, what is the tax policy? How much does K make per paycheck? This is something hackeneuve failed to mention.

It's not quite that high

>Where do they get fruit from?
What fruit?

Ask or

>How far off are you from a hoax of brain cells?
Whoa, slow down there rick

What was the financial structure of WallaceCo's Joi product? Was it a one time purchase? A subscription? Are there in app purchases? Are there Joi lootboxes?

Really failing to address the important questions.

Why do women make videos where they just rotate the camera while looking at it?
Really activates my almonds.

Actually seemed pretty clear that you buy a base product and it's yours to keep but it guilts you to then buy physical hardware accessories for it

>Oh user I'm feeling down today. I'd really cheer up if you bought some Joiboxes, only $29.99 for 50 from the WallaceCo Online Store! You might even get that new outfit skin you were looking at.

brilliant

I hope JOI is never invented
Imagine all the costume DLCs
