Wait… They did a remake of cyborg? Is Van Damme in it?
Hearing colour might be cool but I’d really like to upgrade my memory storage, and rocket punch.
Neil Harbisson is the world’s first officially recognised human cyborg
fucking bullshit. stephen hawking couldn’t function or communicate without his chair & computer. you’re gonna say that doesn’t count? then i don’t trust your judgement
I call my hernia mesh one level of dermal plating
I think generally, assistive devices like Hawking’s wheelchair/speech synth wouldn’t qualify one for the title of “cyborg”, since they’re replacing lost/damaged functionality, and didn’t grant him any abilities not already available to the average person. Whereas Harbisson’s modification is giving him additional abilities that he didn’t previously have and are outside of the typical human experience.
I know somebody who has implated hearing aids. If they’re not a cyborg, I don’t know who is.
Those are a part of the image of Hawkings but not a part of his body.
“upgraded”, sure sure.
It’s just living up to their part of the deal: if I’m going to get the dystopia part, I damn well better also get the cyberpunk part.
My choom.
I prefer the chummer variety of future cyberpunk-y dystopia.
It has dragons!
