Reminds me of when I visited Huaqiangbei for the first time in 2024. I had a vision of a cyberpunk tech market full of unique, hacked-together gizmos and gadgets, and was very disappointed to find that every stall sold the same knockoff airpods, electric air blowers, and discount drones. I would have been ecstatic to stumble upon some underground cyberdeck shop there, but alas, just worse quality versions of the same stuff you could find at Best Buy.
