          I’ll just wait 15 years for the OpenMind project to release the first fully open source brain chip.

          Then spend the remainder of my life in a coma because I flashed the wrong boot image.

      The ad gets into your brain. just like this liquid gets into this egg. Although in reality. it’s not liquid, but gamma radiation.

    “Now, if you’re part of Control Group Kepler-Seven, we implanted a tiny microchip about the size of a postcard into your skull. Most likely you’ve forgotten it’s even there, but if it starts vibrating and beeping during this next test, let us know, because that means it’s about to hit five hundred degrees, so we’re gonna need to go ahead and get that out of you pretty fast.”

    If Jensen’s brain had ads I would have actually empathised with him instead of sardonically yelling “oh, fuck off” when he said “I never asked for this”.

      Something the game downplays a lot, but does mention, is how much life sucks for those who need cyberware like Jensen does. First of all, they’re basically always in pain. Phantom pain and rehular pain from how the cyberware connects to your body. Second, they need to take some anti-rejection meditation that has awful side-effects (not least of which was the big event from the bad guys that made everyone go psycho; but I’m not gonna count that one since it’s not something that affects Jensen through the whole game). Not to mention tbe societal perceptions of those with cybernetics.

        I mean, yeah, it was a tongue in check comment. Of course losing most of your body, even if it’s replaced by supercool killer robot parts is traumatic af.
