A dense collage presents the stereotypical cyberpunk starter pack: privacy tools, open-source software, obscure operating systems, old hardware, hacker media, anti-surveillance symbols, and references to cyberpunk culture. The joke is that someone identifying as a cyberpunk is expected to collect an extremely specific mixture of Linux tools, alternative platforms, cryptography, analog technology, and anti-establishment ideas. It is shared as an ironic reaction to an overly serious or niche hacker persona.
