    I used to think Shadowrun having literally everything from a soycaf pot to a semi truck connected to the wireless matrix was silly but here we are

      For what its worth, commercial refrigeration units with wifi actually does make some reasonable sense for managing stock and having a quick response to issues or even preventing them outright through diagnostic data.

      Of course, you also want some competent IT infrastructure, but i guess that got the budget cuts for “what do they do anyway?” Or something similar.

      At long last we have managed to ruin the future like in all that dystopian fiction you all love so much.

        We don’t even get any of the cool stuff like sweet chrome, magic coming back, or amerikkka balkanizing after an uprising of indigenous peoples. We just megacorps, plague, environmental disaster, everything connected to the matrix while it spies on everyone, corporate militaries, urban decay, etc etc
