UI/UX Designers, you need to see this.
I just discovered a tool called HyperDesign, and it’s one of the easiest ways to extract a complete design system from any website. Just paste a URL, and it generates a DESIGN.md file with the site’s colors, typography, spacing, and UI components all extracted visually.

Not only do we not live in cyberpunk, but cyberpunk will never happen for the exact reason it's such an alluring setting: The downtrodden underclass are never going to become super high agency computer wiz genius street samurai warriors, hacking into corpo supercomputers and committing acts of terrorism against THE MAN. They're actually just going to be fat degen gooners and addicts, outsourcing all cognitive function (and gambling action) to machines, eating kool-aid pineapple and sharing AI videos of African kids doing autobody work with brick and mortar. "Oh my God, can you believe this!?” And they'll drink fabric dye elixirs because their penis doesn't work, and shop at Walmart and traffic in novel hybrids of conspiracy theory on the techno-occult app.
The great conceit of cyberpunk is that it assumes most people are transhumanists at heart. That they're incredibly savvy and talented, and they'd all do so well if THE MAN just got out of their way and let them upgrade. As it turns out, people can't even handle the internet. They could barely handle the television. The camera has stricken them in hypnosis, reorienting their gaze to see things for it rather than themselves. Ubiquitous access to food has destroyed their bodies. All communication now routed through a sensory deprivation box, and suddenly they want to end their life. There will be no laser katanas.
The pioneering writers of the genre always assumed, like many people still do today, that technological pessimism relies on a corrupted design. There was nothing essential about it. The revealed dilemma is that man interacting with highly optimized systems doesn't need to be coerced into dysfunction much at all. We can do bad all by ourselves. You merely have to leave too much kibble in the bowl.
These types of people are called Pratyekabuddhas which is a type of Buddha that gains the sattva of Bodhi without ever knowing of the spoken Dharma, they've existed throughout all of history, as long as man has been man
BREAKING: An autonomous group broke into Bruntons Aero Products factory in Glasgow.
Once inside, they dismantled machinery used to product parts for weapons companies arming Israel.
They took action in solidarity with the Palestinian people, and the hunger strikers.
Unbelievable what vanity fair let Christopher Anderson do at the White House - really feels like he’s making fun of them, obviously the close up’s are incredible but placing them up against walls this like is wild - have to wonder what the white house thought they were portraying
