Well not nothing. They do block the sun.
so can litery anything else
Clear glass. A ziplock bag. Wind. Thoughts and prayers. Sunblock - dammit.
And my axe!
Normalizing glasses that look like Facebook perv glasses isn’t something I would want.
Glasses that have cameras should require red led to be on at all times by law (when turned on).
I believe the Facebook glasses do have this.
The problem is just that the light is rather easy for an end-user to remove. And that it may be too dim to clearly see in brighter situations.
Ya I don’t mind being filmed in a public setting. But you know ppl be weird with that shit
I worn glasses that made me look like a pervert long before it was a trend
This pervert erasure will not stand, man!
But of course it does something. It blocks light, and let a man stare at boobs discreetly.
Hey, don’t be sexist… They also let women stare at boobs discreetly
You’re right. Women also like to stare at boobs.
Another use case I failed to mention: staring at butts.
So they are perv glasses.
my socks also lack video recording or generative AI integration. perhaps i should sell them to eBay
They’ll go for more if you don’t wash them before selling.
Not if he sells the water he used to wash it as sock juice
That’s cool. Way cooler if they were polarized though.
Did you read the link?
No - at least I’m homest. By your reply I guess they are. Thanks.
I have a pair of prescription, self darkening lenses in cheap frames that look like the DDG ones, and no one has ever given me a second glance when I wear them in public places.
On an only semi-related note, photochromics are super dope and are definitely one of those technologies that make me feel like I’m living in the cool future we were promised.
While we’re talking about glasses technology, it seems like oil resistant coatings have finally gotten really good. My eyebrows are pretty oily and would smear on the top middle corners of my glasses all the time. But my latest pair just has a tiny bit of smudging there. I can press them against my face and wiggle my eyebrows right against them and it’s still only a bit smudged.
I thought that too for a while, but the shine has worn off of photochromics for me because all the ones I’ve owned have lasted grand total of about a year or in some cases less before they’ve worn out and no longer darken in the sun. The longest lasting chunk of the stuff I’ve ever managed to own was the visor on my motorcycle helmet, a Bell Qualifier DLX, but that also had the tradeoff of never actually getting dark enough to be useful so I had to wear normal sunglasses under it anyway which really rather defeats the purpose.
Instead when I’m feeling particularly cyberpunk these days I bust out my old pair of CTRL shades. They have their own inherent drawback though, in that even though I managed to score my pair free through my job at the time I’m still afraid to do anything heavy duty while wearing them lest I break the damn things. That’s because it’d cost me $300 for another pair.
That’s totally fair. Ive never owned a pair since there isnt really a reason if you dont need prescription glasses so I didnt realize they could wear out so fast, but the concept and material science is really cool nonetheless
People give me second looks, but that’s more because they’re sexy AF.

Will these work for the upcoming eclipse?
I assume you are joking but just in case you aren’t: no, regular sunglasses are never sufficient for protecting your eyes from an eclipse.
😎
i like my gold-mirrored clipons too much to drift
I took the time to read the fine print, and these glasses appear to sense the vector of reflected light and specifically filter out waves with a horizontal orientation. The processimg power needed to do this will mean these must have an uncomfortably large battery or require frequent charging.
I think it uses nanotechnology to just do it automatically.
Think it will require age verification?
Polarization is kind of just magic. Which means these sunglasses might actually require mana points to use.
Fortunately it’s that awe inspiring battery technology where the power can be remotely stored and transmitted over millions of kilometers.

Didn’t read but should advertise as smart glasses sarcastically
Beautiful, chefs kiss *
Plot twist: goverment applied vaccines through the air and this is government’s survey on side effects.

They are all based on the same designs from like the 40s.
Being a pervert was hilarious until 2016
Dump people compensate with smart devices, they buy garbage trying to look smart.
Any one with a smartwatch looks dumber to me…
Can’t spell dumb for someone calling people dumb
Obviously it was a pun about people of the garbage dump buying garbage.
