CyberStereogram

CyberStereogram is a project that allows you to create art where custom information can be included. It is all html so you can download it and create things offline. You can put passwords here and have fun hiding things in plain sight or just have fun making some cool pictures.

The images are high resolution and you can get them printed. It may well make a good cyberpunk product in the future if you have a good printing hookup.

The page was created and is maintained as a github page from our github repo https://github.com/Cyberpunk-Hardware?tab=repositories and contributions are welcome.

Magic Eye Stereogram Generator

All in-browser. Set your text (emojis or ASCII art supported), color mix, shape, font, and sliders, then generate a 1200×800 or 7680×4320 PNG.

Check it out here.

It is a fun way to distribute your referral codes to the shop.

Sudo-Nyms

Cyberpunk Hardware is created by Nyms and you can become one. The more anonymous you are the better. This article outlines some basics about how to keep your identity anonymous and still have some fun along the way.

Changing Nyms

A good habit is to use a new Nym for every platform that you communicate on. It is also a good idea to change those Nyms randomly. Note that you can’t change your Nym on this platform and many others, in this case you just make a new login. Keep all you logins in your password manager.

Nym Style

Change your nym’s online style as much as you can. Type differently, spell correctly or not, use different languages, have preferences for different communication platforms, anything you can come up with is fine and it often happens naturally. Using different Nyms simultaneously for different areas of interest is also a good idea. Whatever quirks you have all adds up to provide better anonymity set for the group, this makes us stronger, fairer and more resilient.

Anonymous Unity

We have some symbols that we can use publicly that will link us together on an anyone can opt in basis and helps us gather notariaty and make a bigger impact.

Put a 💀 at the start or end of your Nym on cyberpunk hardware chats and elsewhere. 🕯️ and 🙏 are also a nod to our cultish sense of humour. You can also use the cyberpunk colours in your avatar art.

The current official tag is:

💀<YOURNYM>-Cyberpunk⚡️

Eg:

💀CBRPNK1038

💀Zealout-Cyberpunk

💀Anonodon-Cyberpunk

💀CPH-02-Cyberpunk⚡️

The third example is the most current and most official. If you think you are a decorated Cyberpunk you can add to it whatever you like ⭐️💎🔥. If we maintain the structure it is good for publicity, but beware it makes our anonymous nyms more searchable and people can easily impersonate them.

PGP Keys and NOSTR

Once you are more advanced you cannot trust a Nym by itself, you need verification. We get more of this through NOSTR where identities are protected by a unique Nsec key and you can build a long term azap linked reputation. This is a good place to start but in order to bridge between changing NOSTR profiles and to other online platforms we use PGP keys. You can see what one looks like here on a CyberSignedPage https://pop-os.tail70df5.ts.net/ later we will make a post detailing how to set this up for yourself.

The Hazard of IRL

In real life contact is great, but when trying to create an anonymous group it has to be done carefully, because it tends to reveal real identities. You can use one of your Cyberpunk Nyms in real life, but you should keep one dedicated to this and you should try to just use that Nym when you are meeting people face to face. It is recommended that you choose a Nym that is a normal sounding name that people will be inclined to call you and that you will naturally respond to.

Splits

With bitcoin based infrastructure cyberpunks can do many things to make sure they get rewarded for their work.

LNBits Split Payments

All our payments are in bitcoin and we have a LN Bits checkout, using the Split Payments plug in we can easily add Nyms to the distribution of bitcoin coming in. We simply add a wallet ID, invoice key, LNURLp or Lightning Address to the main wallet and it automatically diverts funds there. These are called “Target Wallets”.

We just need to decide who is doing what and what % payment that it’s worth. Something for sale, admin, dispatch and after sales service. We can then even have wallets for each department and then split out payments again to individual cyberpunks from there.

We can also do split payments with donations, zaps and streaming payments.

Affiliates

In the website we have a self directed affiliate coupon system. Use a fun name and email (one that works for email not a cyberpunk one) in the application form on the Nym page and you are in.

You will see your stats and your checkout code at the top. Eg FATSYUM10. If you go to the Referral URL you will see a URL like this

https://cyberpunkhardware.co/?coupon=fatsyum10

You can post that stuff anywhere you like.

People who use your code will get a 10% discount and you will get a 5% commission.

If you are successful, we can issue more codes for you and they will each get their own dashboard. The better you are the better the deal, the more cyberpunk sells the better the cost basis for everyone.

Nodes

We can connect our nodes to the payment terminal on the sites and that way we all share in the routing fees. This hubness also compounds as we build the Cyberpunk shillopolis and everyone wants to connect to our nodes.

Posts

Cyberpunks can contribute to sites by making funny or useful comments and by creating Posts from anonymous Nyms. These are not like blog posts or social media , we have Nostr for that, they are meant to be living documents. The Posts on the clear-net sites are distributed to all our clear-net sites and are a resource like a handbook or manual for cyberpunk activities. They get updated, forked and refined.

You will need to build a reputation as a Cyberpunk to get your draft Post published

  1. Get a Nym
  2. Make some comments and contribute to current projects
  3. Make contributions on the Gitea or Github
  4. Do cyberpunky things for the Community, … Sorry some of the details are not defined.
  5. Once you attain sufficient trust you will get the ability to make Posts by logging ihttps://cyberpunkhardware.co/wp-admin/post-new.phpn to the site admin directly or by clicking the button below or on your Nym dashboard to make a draft. If you can only make a draft, let everyone know about it in the cyberpunk chat rooms and other cyberpunks will review it for publishing.
  6. Once posts are refined and well established we can cross post them to NOSTR.
