    Altered Carbon on Netflix

    The Poe switch was well done and I love the characterization they gave the AI, but the reason is that Edgar Allan is public domain. Jimi isn't, and hence would need royalty payments that were better spent on writing... because Poe is hilarious. Quell, the Envoy changes and such were made to...

    Artificial Intelligence vs. Intelligent Machines

    Well this discussion went atomic while I was gone. I read through as much of it as I could, and there is a lot to process, but I figured I'd throw in an interesting bit of thought that came up in a discussion I had with my wife about AI and the idea of "Artificial" intelligence. Technically, by...

    The Forlorn Hope: Cyberpunk Off-Topic

    I read something about this to the effect that the whole not having a pulse thing actually eventually got to the dude. Like little biological cues that we don't even notice or think about being absent just caused nervous issues to the point they had to somehow simulate a pulse or something...

    The Forlorn Hope: Cyberpunk Off-Topic

    So Motoko-style full body prosthetic with a cyberbrain? Hm... Ghost in the shell style stability, Cyberpsycho, or cyberzombie from shadowrun? Are you even human at that point

    The Forlorn Hope: Cyberpunk Off-Topic

    Clearly a replicant. A rogue one at that digging into its own physiology. Retire it! Quick!

    Cyberpunk Soundtrack

    The Forlorn Hope: Cyberpunk Off-Topic

    Yeah, but figuring out how to do that, how to cope and deal with your issues is a damn hard struggle sometimes. So figuring it out is brave. And being able to be open about yourself, especially on the internet is brave as well.

    How far is Cyberpunk from reality?

    It's been posted on here before, but... http://unitedfederationofcharles.blogspot.com/2017/01/top-signs-were-living-in-cyberpunk.html From Robocop. "OCP traditionally dabbled in not for profit industries like healthcare, prisons, and space travel." All of which are now common works. Hacktivist...

    The Forlorn Hope: Cyberpunk Off-Topic

    Dunno that I'd trust urban dictionary to be the determinator of true definitions, but you aren't wrong about hollywood ruining old titles. Robocop comes to mind. Here's hoping though. I've got the Voight-Kampf case with my collectors DVD of the first one. I need the second to be damn good

    "We are not doing Blade Runner. It will be full of rock and roll."

    Love the TechNoir scene from Terminator. Also, How the HELL did I never hear of Rock and Rule before now

    CD Projeckt Red's "Cyberpunk" trademark not valid?

    No, not really. The Trademark on "Cyberpunk" was originally established by R.Talosian games in 1988. This is the same trademark that CDPR is taking over. The simple fact is that in 1988, the internet wasn't a thing and people didn't get upjumped about corporations doing what they do. So no...

    Why Two Swords?

    From "The World of The Witcher" book "Every witcher owns two blades, commonly called steel and sliver, though as I will soon explain, this terminology is an oversimplification" "The silver sword's blade, despite popular belief, is not forged from this metal entirely. Silver is a soft metal and...

    Witcher series for Netflix confirmed!

    My biggest hope honestly, especially from the description of "The Witcher stories follow an unconventional family that comes together to fight for truth in a dangerous world,” by daniel and brown, is that they touch on the entirety of Geralt's extended family and how they came together. By...

    CD Projeckt Red's "Cyberpunk" trademark not valid?

    Oh Lord... this again. I''m just going to quote myself from the last thread about this. What that basically means is that another company can't use the word to market an item under the same name/brand. I could make "Cyberpunk Cola" but if I make a videogame, I can't title it "Cyberpunk" as...
