Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

When I look at things like this it makes me think of what it took to get to that point. I dunno, I kind of relate it to how people view SHIELD in Marvel comics. Most people think it is awesome but think about how invasive of an organization it is.

You can glamorize the end result all you want but the reality is it very likely would be hell to get to it and probably not all you think it is.

You wished you lived in the two percent of the population that resides in those giant-ass towers. The rest of the city looks pretty shitty.

[–]Funk86 1 point2 points ago

No you don't. The rich live in the advanced ivory towers that block almost all light from reaching the primitive slums.

You will almost certainly get your wish.

Not a patch of green to be found.

Why would you ever want to live in a world like that

[–]Sciar 0 points1 point ago

Personally I like cities, if they make them efficient enough they're fantastic. This looks like a well designed concept so it would probably work pretty well.

I would really enjoy living somewhere like that, as much as I think those empty spaces filled with fog off of a mountain look AMAZING I'd only want to see it on a vacation. I wouldn't want to live somewhere so isolated.

Looks like what I imagined the sprawl to look like in Neuromancer.

One of those towers to the left of the big tower looks a lot like the Taipei 101

Statistically speaking, you would live in the slums where all the local business is closed and there's no wireless internet.

From high above, anything can look beautiful. Down close, you truly begin to see the grime and degeneration of urban societies.

I find that thats part of the appeal of a cyberpunk society

Imagine the traffic and smog.

not when everything in the future runs on electricity! traffic on the other hand will never go away so long as people are driving and not computer programs.
