Putting them in parking lots is way more TCO.

Risk to other peoples property

You’re putting them 20 ft in the air so any maintenance is a lot harder.

Expense for the super sturdy structure to hold them over a car.

The upsides are it keeps the cars protected and if you don’t have a field that makes sense…

it always amazes me that people don’t understand AB tests. It’s always you’re crazy, youtube works fine or facebook doesn’t do that. Almost no one seems to understand a webpage isn’t always the same for every viewer.

When I go to Vegas, I put aside $60, 3 times in the trip, i’ll put $20 through a slot machine. If I’m ever up more than $10, I stop and keep that 30, spend it on food or something for the fam.

I broke even once, up 60 once, and down 60 a few times.

You know, cold feet in bed would be a bad thing…

Nawww man, we’re in G.R.R.M Territory now.

Any good thing that happens just sets us up for some kind of miserable travesty.

youtube, #candid #activewomen it’s pretty digusting honestly, but it’s not glasses.

I’m totally down with that. exception of the police and government officials. of course, it’d never happen because it would make commercial surveilance cameras illegal.

With all the crazy ass things that can kill us off, I don’t think we’re alone in the universe, but we may very well be alone in time.

The Fermi Paradox might just the the likelyhood to get wiped out from motions to everything and we’re too far away to get contact in this gnat’s ass of a conscious timeline we’re in.

berries and honey is some paprika and salt away from BBQ sauce.

My problem is we’ve let it through literally everywhere else, cameras, cellphones, public survielance, dashcams. The one thing that i’d actually like to be able not to pull my phones out for is the hill to die on. it just all seems really fucking pointless

the fraction of people doing that is very small, while the percentage of people doing that with Meta glasses is basically 100%.

care to give me any citation at all on that?

But the glasses do this as a core function.

go back to google glass, it had none of that and it was just as big of a target.

It’s also a lot more obvious when someone is using a phone to record in public.

There are entire kinks around voyure footage taken unaware in public from cell phones. I think your lack of seeing people doing it a confirmation bias.

If I obviously orientate my phone towards you or your kids, you’ll be totally cool?

You don’t need to obviously do that, a reasonably wide lens and you “reading social media” would do the same. It happens all the fucking time.

Now assume that a smartpervert glass wearer is doing just that but you don’t know about it.

Assume every time someone has their phone in front of them their camera is on and has at least a 45 degree viewing angle.

I’m saying it’s exactly the same on a phone, don’t delude yourself that it isn’t happening or that it’d be totally obvious

phones should absolutely indicate and in a way that can’t be taped over.

I’ve never completely understood what the full fuss is over the face-mounted cameras. They put high-power zooms and 50MP sensors on the back of cell phones, and nobody bats an eye.

There’s fuckloads of recording going on. Do it with a phone? yeah fine. Do it with glasses, world’s gonna end.

Put an indicator light on the glasses with a sensor to make sure it’s on from the nose bridge.

I’d LOVE to replace my phone with a pair of glasses.

And the space shuttle which did it for decades

Propaganda!!!

Journalism is already dead, we’re just hearing the echoes of it’s past.

Noone has to write the articles anymore

Noone can tell the real from the fake

There are no rules or integrity around the process

Points of view are now owned.

Algorithms will decide what is true and what is false.

The only journalism that exists anymore fits squarely into the 1984 hole.

The Internet Archive needs to be decentralized and taken deep offline with only tunnels back.

I mean, he’s ape-brained still, he might have a point.
