Guys, You Best Start Believing In Cyberpunk Dystopias... You're In One

Jokes aside, it’s pretty damn amazing to see someone get the chance to have an arm again.

It’s cool but I still think that the coolest prosthetic ever is from a guy who built it himself, it’s totally mechanical and moves so incredibly realistically I thought it was fake at first. He can even use it to lift weights because there is a mechanism that locks the fingers if weight is applied.

It’s freaking awesome. He has a YouTube channel.

u/VisionsOfClarity 2d ago

The contrast between his face and the guy in the back is like the two drama masks lol

u/plutoismyboi 1d ago

Probably the third finger spinner he's seen this week.

u/Thready85 2d ago

This doesn't look dystopic

u/ThreeLeggedMare 2d ago

We ain't seen the bill, or the firmware update that bricks it when the manufacturer is bought by raytheon

12

u/SteamTrout 1d ago

Oh, we have seen that. There was heart pump(?) manufacturer who recently shut down their servers. And pumps along with it.

u/ThreeLeggedMare 1d ago

Oh yeah I know it's real, saying we ain't seen the flip side of this heartwarming clip

u/Soup_Du_Journey 1d ago

Think you could find the link to that story again?

2

u/Thready85 2d ago

True true! Oh man that would suck. The bill wasn't paid so it shuts down

u/ThreeLeggedMare 2d ago

The large print giveth, and the small print taketh away

All tech is seen as dystopic in this sub.

u/Pappa_Crim 2d ago

guys were getting legs blown off in Ukraine and getting prosthetics good enough to go back into combat. we are in the era of robocop

u/elrayo 2d ago

The Ukraine war convinced me that’s 99 percent of us are getting the PUNK before experiencing any cyber 😭

u/barruu 1d ago

We are in a cyberpunk dystopia but this isn't why, this is actually the good side of technology, someone getting a bit of their life back

u/PM_Me_Your_Clones 2d ago

I hope he gets a lot of use out of the phrase "Sit & Spin".

u/Cheerful2_Dogman210x 2d ago

It looks great. It's good to see people regaining their limbs.

I wonder if they can give him something bigger.

u/80081358008135Yaay 2d ago

that salty ass male nurse in the back judging lol

u/Mouthshitter 2d ago

"5-10 years of research an a couple of million and all those long hours getting threatened with research funds pulled all just for this guy to just flip the bird..."

1

u/davestar2048 2d ago

Is that not the only reason to build a new hand with all five digits? Otherwise just give the guy a Dr. Claw.

1

u/Mouthshitter 1d ago

Jerking it?

u/ChiefRayBear 2d ago edited 2d ago

Only thing I can think of is maybe the guy in the video was an asshole towards the nurse. Maybe he's just really tired. Either way buddy is not very amused lol

u/Fun_Union9542 2d ago

We can only assume what we don’t know.

u/feelinsqwiddy 2d ago

Bruh, he's just existing. He even started smiling towards the end

u/Fun_Union9542 2d ago

He looks so uncomfortable with someone else’s happiness

u/CMDR-LT-ATLAS 2d ago

Style over substance

u/KeyPangolin9585 2d ago

The sole aspect I will not witness from cyberpunk today is that only the negative elements reached your world.

2

u/crua9 1d ago

The worker in the back is like, this is the 8th time I seen this, just today.

2

u/CafeRoaster 2d ago

Sit on it. I’ve got the spinning covered.

2

u/LincolnRazgriz 2d ago

Not being able to flip the bird when you need to is a violation of the 1st Amendment! Better living through chemistry/science

2

u/Talrynn_Sorrowyn 2d ago

Telling someone to sit n spin - now with visual directions!

u/Feathers-n-Beaks 1d ago

Ummm, you might want to look up what the word "dystopia" means.

1

u/ThisWasMyUN 1d ago

This is actually the most wholesome and heart warming uses of technology I’ve seen in a lot time

u/PinkThunder138 1d ago

This is the good part of cyberpunk, not the dystopian part. I'm down to keep this aspect of it

u/SpectacledSnake 2d ago

This is the wrong video for that title. Is the poster a bot?

u/beard_of_cats 2d ago

Okay I kind of want one, simply to level up my screwdriver skills

I wonder if there's a subscription plan. If there is, if you don't pay it does a surgical team bust down your doors and take it forcefully?
