Chris Knight posted:cuz sterling is a good writer is he though? admittedly the only thing i can definitively recall reading of his was the parts he wrote of Difference Engine. and there is a very clear delineation of which part of that book is good, and which is bad, where the good part was very obviously written by gibson, and the loving poo poo part of it written by sterling.

Zeitgeist was legitimately good. His stuff with the Viridian Green movement was an interesting document of the time. He’s not a preturnatually-gifted writer like Gibson, but he’s is certainly a class above the Doctorow/Klein poo poo-tier that seems to be dominating the genre now.

I liked Holy Fire, Distraction and Islands in the Net and the shaper/mechanist stories are cool

A Pinball Wizard posted:whuffie seems like an excellent term for huffing your own farts i think he walked back the idea a few years ago (it was apparently based on slashdot voting so lol at that) but in the story its also mercurial and fleeting based on being a crowd pleaser so idk seems more cautionary in the abstract. im pretty sure the story is never so self-aware as to reach that conclusion but its there if youre pessimistic NoneMoreNegative posted:no she steals his sperms and superglues her vagoo shut uuuuuuuugh stross why. i forgot about that and its the start of the book

 quote:The Department of Justice on Tuesday charged an Iranian national with allegedly hacking into HBO, dumping a selection stolen files, and attempting to extort the company by ransoming a treasure trove of the company’s content. This summer, hackers released a bevy of internal HBO files, included scripts for Game of Thrones and full, unaired episodes of other shows.
