Drive-by e-scooter shootings have been a thing here in Sweden, which I firmly place in the same cyberpunk bucket.

[–] [email protected] 53 points 2 weeks ago (8 children)

Shootings can't happen in Europe

[–] [email protected] 80 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They frown on that sort of thing

Nah, they happen. Just at way, way lower rates than in the U.S.

Look, if Elon got run over by a Tesla, everyone would be laughing it off right now. If putin got smashed between a large truck and another large truck or by some other means like a large steel plate, everyone would be more than ecstatic. I would do a little dance myself. So I think we should just not try to figure out who did this too hard. It just happens sometimes. Right?

Cuz nobody figures out who denied your claim when your dad had to die right? Where's the justice there? This is it! This is the justice. Don't want it? Well then implement a better way to get justice. As, is, this is great.

Hey gun crime is just a reality we have to live with, according to the Republicans in Congress. So I don't see any reason to make a big fuss just because this rich bastard accidentally feel into some bullets, instead of the usual bunch of innocent children or random black person the cops decided to shoot while face down and in handcuffs. No, I'm sure the police have much more serious police matters to attend to, like civil forfeiture on somebody carrying a large amount of cash or selling appropriated weapons to drug cartels.

People got so hung up on cool cyberware and Johnny Silverhand that they completely forgot Cyberpunk was a warning.

who wouldn't want to have e-narrator Keanu in their mind sarcastically commenting their every move ? I've already preordered

Seems risky for the perpetrator, won't they be able to trace who rented the bike?

[–] [email protected] 89 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They took the ebike into central park and got away on foot from there. I doubt they're the one that rented the bike or if they did, they did it with fake info and a prepaid card. Once they got to central park they probably swapped into a new set of clothes out of that backpack and disapeared.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not just new clothes, probably a reversible backpack so when leaving the park the backpack wasn't even the same color.

Y'all really just crafting whatever narrative you want in your heads, aren't ya?

They would have to go through the ebike company, and that could take some time

[–] [email protected] 62 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Apparently some corporate dick sucker scrapes the public feeds for the bikes and volunteered the information for the likely bike pretty much immediately.

They can trace the credit card. Whether or not that leads to the actual shooter is a different matter.

Step 1

Walk into a Walgreens and buy a prepaid visa with cash

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

They probably know which Walgreen's it was bought in and can check when it was bought, likely there are cameras in the store. Hope the dude was wise enough to wear a mask or some other disguise.

born too early to fight in the post-apocalypse wasteland, born too late to fight in the pre-apocalypse waste land, born just in time to fight billionaires in the peri-apocalyptic wasteland.

Perhaps the 9mm pistol is the guillotine of the next American revolution.

You've said this on so many posts I'm struggling to keep track of which ones I've seen before. It's not a criticism, just saying you're messing with my melon maaaan.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 weeks ago

Wow, you weren't kidding. I wish I had that much confidence in my comments

In its very perverted logic, this assassination is good for capitalism. Every CEO can ask for a raise now.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 weeks ago (20 children)

One of the strengths of capitalism is that it can profit both off stability and off turmoil. It literally cannot lose

Let's increase each one's pay by exactly three aerodynamic chunks of lead, to be deposited directly into their brainpans at supersonic speeds.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Subsonic, still very fast. The assassin used subsonic ammo because it isn't nearly as loud. This is important.

Copayback. I've never smiled as much as I have today. Random Shooter can have anything he wants or needs from me, an alibi, a bike rental, a kidney.

There was that meme about things we are bringing back in the 2020s from the 1920s, that included anarcho-syndicalism.

I guess that was a miscalculation, we are actually bringing back even earlier forms of anarchism. 💣

Now let's add a bit of Ghost in the Shell where the shooter is invisible because no one has organic eyes anymore.... And he has an electronic scrambling technology

You forgot the funniest part from the movie: when the man was hacked into believing he had a wonderful life with a wife and daughter, when he was really just living in a tiny shitty apartment. Completely broke his mind lmao

...so far.

Hey dental insurance CEO, are you thinking twice this morning about signing off on that press release where you're going to start denying all of Grandma's dental claims if you you're software finds any evidence of her smiling on social media... Smiling being user-initiated routine wear and tear on teeth that shareholders demand no longer be covered by default.

Think twice this morning, my Lord...
