Meta. The largest portal for all your stalking needs.
(Although TBH, I would really love to have a wearable computer that was fully open source and local. Unfortunately, big tech going full Orwell has ruined the idea permanently.)
I think I would rather have AR glasses then glasses w/ a camera.
Yeah more I think about it the more I can get behind that.
How would AR ever work without a camera? One implies the other?
Ever seen a jet fighters HUD?
A HUD and AR are something different tho.
A HUD is just a display you can look at while keeping your focus on something else. My car has that, it has no relation to the outside world, it’s just a display.
With AR the information presented is placed within the world around you. Using a camera and motion tracking, it can place stuff in relation to real stuff around you. Think Pokemon-Go.
Oh I would love a computer on my face to that isn’t part of some BS like meta. How fun would it be to look at an object and ask “what is it” and it can find the answer. On a sidebar giving you real time health updates like heart rate, O2 levels, ect. Oh theres a storm rolling in, good to know I’ll roll my cars windows up.
Or my fav, your approaching a flock camera, here is an alternate route.
Plus news/rss/emails all in a AR setting.
But we all know this is probably never going to happen because these scumbags want to monetize/teach their failing AI to make a buck.
Good.
I thought it was a good idea to record every interaction with the police without them knowing that you did so. Are we now saying that wearing a hidden camera in public is bad?
The US police doesn’t even care if people are overtly filming them killing people without cause, they still get away with it.
How would a “hidden” camera change this?
Also, it is fairly easy to see the camera lenses on smart glasses, they could easily find a way to knock the glasses off your face and step on them to look like a plausible accident.
You take them to court, the police department pays, best case, the police is transferred to another district.
It is far better to have a dashcam with a fisheye lens in your car, it is easily overlooked and and has a large FOV, while also picking up sound.

Not true. They hate it.
they still get away with it.
The individual police officer might, but filming them is for your protection from a wrongful conviction and to secure damages should they break the law during the arrest.

This sounds far more contrived than knocking a phone out of your hand.

A few hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money to most people. Maybe not to you though.

Sure, but when you are a pedestrian, this isn’t an option.
Are you just upset you can use it to secretly record women?
I don’t use them, but if I lived in a country where the police habitually abuse innocent citizens and get away with it, I would carry a camera on my person 24/7.
Baseless insinuation in an ineffective attempt to smear, not withstanding.
If its hooked up to meta, yes. Everyone isn’t the police.
And how do you know when you are going to get harassed by the police?
Are you white? Are you rich? If the answer to either of those is “no”, that’s how you know.
So white poor people should invest in these kind of glasses is what you are saying? Cool.
As they should be, fucking perverts
At least two major events that happen in my city have announced a full ban on the pervert glasses
Can we just recycle “glasshole”?
Why not both?
I was living in NYC when Google Glass first premiered. Within three or four days, almost every restaurant, every shop, and certainly every bar and club had a sign that said “Google glass forbidden! Anyone wearing Google glass will be banned for life!“
I didn’t see many people wearing them, but when I did, it wouldn’t be long before I saw some random person just punch the fuck out of that person, or grab the headset off of the person’s face and just stomp it, and then just start screaming at the person who was wearing them until they ran away, while everyone nearby cheered them on.
And every time, I felt that they deserved that— because they did.
With all of these secret spyware sunglasses that Meta is pushing out today? I fully expected people being beat to death with baseball bats, or being shot in the face with guns. I’m actually quite glad that people are learning their lessons now before they are just being fucking murdered in the streets. But if that’s what it takes for people to stop wearing these sunglasses, not spy on people in record them without their permission, then so be it.
Listen up, you entitled assholes. You wear these stupid spyglasses in public, and you deserve every shred of bodily harm and violence that you get coming to you. And if it takes every single person who puts them on their face being torn apart in the streets and dying horrific death until a long gets past banning them forever, then please please please make that happen. People need to learn that their personal entitlement will cost them their lives if it steps hard enough on others that the others fight back. And we others? We need to learn how to fight back hard enough to make them stop.
I’ll take “things that never happened” for 300, Alex.
Tell me you’ve never lived in New York without telling me you’ve never lived in New York.
I live in Europe.
Why? I’ve seen someone with smart glasses get punched in the face about it, and I don’t even live in fancy New York.
Lol, things happen to people. Get over it.
Sure thing bud.
lol whatever, kid
I’m in my thirties. Boomer.
That explains why you expect an award just because you aged.
And why you refer to anyone who calls you on your shit a “boomer“
Yawn.
Things like this make me miss living in New York.
Greatest place on earth
Good. Cuz if I see you recording and I ask you to stop, you get one warning… I won’t hesitate to punch you in the face and break those obnoxious glasses on your face if you argue. Hey maybe you’ll go viral 😅
And then everyone on the bus claps
And then you go to jail(in most countries).
