Early 90s Guide To Cyberpunk Necessities
That’s a lot of shit to carry. From 1993 Issue #10 of Mondo 2000.
It’s amazing that almost all of these now fit together in a single device that you can shove up your butt.
i dunno, a vhs cassette is still pretty big. A vcr is bigger.
Granted, it might take a bit of practice and lube.
Just go slow and leave the cord out for retrieval
And here I sit with a laser pointer in my lap. Crazy cat lady by day, cyberpunk by night.
I just love that the captioner got to the pager and was like–yeah, sure. right
Can we go back to this please? My phone can probably do everything in that picture and better. That’s so fucking boring. Sure, you never have “gee I sure wish I’d brought my camera” moments when every phone has a camera. At the same time though, you actually have things. Idk if it’s just me, but I’m kinda getting tired with how it seems owning physical items is becoming the premium thing.
The fact that “laser hassling” didn’t get a thing for “punks” is something I am happy about.
30 years on, that guy still had all those gadgets dangling from his belt, but now he’s the crazy old guy who lives in the junkyard
I guess I am? My phone is 95% of those things. XD
Reminds me of The Real Cyberpunk Fakebook

That really looks like Dan Avidan from Ninja Sex Party and Game Grumps.
Every good cyberpunk has a PowerBook.
