give up bodies for higher population density
let's just go ahead and build the worst possible cyberpunk dystopia we can. give up money for cpu time. basic income is a setting of the distributed scheduler. all bodies are owned by corporations, used mostly for their polyvalence in technical work and science that cannot be simulated.governments become clouds and war become cyberr
@CobaltVelvet
Had to look up up polyvalence. Thanks for that! After a lifetime of reading, it's always a positive pleasure to find new (to me) words!
I've been flirting with the idea that we already live in a dystopia. That our grandparents (mine are all dead) would have been filled with awe and horror by what we've done with their future.
Cyber...? Well, I have a buddy, my age, who has both a pacemaker and defibrillator implanted. Not exactly the kind of cybernetics we were hoping for.
