I use outdated technology just for fun, listen to crappy music, and watch a lot of horror movies. Expect posts about These Things. I talk a lot.

Wait is this real? Cuz I could go for a book that makes fun of cyberpunk as purely an aesthetic.
I humbly submit The Real Cyberpunk Fakebook https://archive.org/details/TheRealCyberpunkFakeBook
Oh this is good! Also reminds me of The Manual (How to have a #1 [song] the easy way).
I would unironically love to read this XD
In my headcanon, when they say 'bytes' they probably mean exabytes or something but at some point before the story's present day all the names for storage units were downsized, kinda like when a country will knock all the zero's (zeroes?) off its currency.
Damn, Compuary already? Time flies when you're getting ready for the Rich Perverts' Ball.
meet me in the hack alley during the nightly server maintenance and i'll cut you a deal you can't refuse
Alright, trying this again:
- There's an excellent narration of this back cover on Soundcloud, and if you haven't heard it before you definitely should: https://soundcloud.com/zenuel/hacker-voice
- Please tell me that you saved the name of this book, OP, because the ISBN number seems to lead to an actual, normal sci-fi book, rather than whatever glorious mess is pictured here. I absolutely MUST know what this is and how to get it.
"I've read this [...] book [...] this year."
well! what stunning praise! surely nothing important is elided
I also like how the ISBN sticker is placed such that one isn't quite sure whether the quote is by William Gibson, or some random called Liam Gibson
