Another comment mentioned meta glasses don’t have AR. I stand corrected.

Regarding your sign language comment, I’m no sure. For example, here is an article of AR glasses being able of doing that: https://deafvibes.com/ai-and-accessibility-technologies/smart-glasses-meet-sign-language/

But it was just an example. When I thought of those glasses with cameras on them, I thought “oh, AR glasses”! I just realized recently that lots of cheaper glasses don’t have a display, just the cameras.

Ok, I see. I thought the backlash is about all smartglasses in general, including AR glasses.

I for sure will get downvoted for this. But the glasses are not the problem, it’s the potential misuse. There are actually lots of applications where augmented reality comes in handy, as for example heads up information related to instructions, or, for example, in a much earlier time, people with, e.g., autism, got a feedback with an emoji, what the mood of the other person was. Or, for example, reading sign language without having thousands of hours spent on that. There are so many useful applications and people are just censoring the technology like they would censor the way now it’s mandatory to check for ID’s. I really get the idea, that mass surveillance is bad. No discussion about that. But cameras can be used in a good way. The problematic thing is, that you don’t really can’t tell if somebody is recording you or just using it neatly. But that’s the same with smartphones. Everytime somebody is holding his/her smartphone up, doing something, I also think “is he/she recording me right now? Nah, it’s probably just used properly…”

I’m just imagining the trailer deploying legs after getting conscious: “Alright, that’s it. I’m out of here…”

But more than 200%, though?

Soma vibes intensify

So… now potential clones in the future never get a chance to be successful?

Huh… coincidence? https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/unearthed-fbi-document-leak-fuels-claims-epstein-introducing-melania-trump-despite-public-denials-1791838

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a gun nut or at all pro war, but why do they produce multimillion dollar missiles consisting of metal, fuel and explosives for that much for a one-way use instead of using that money to prevent wars? Well, call me a sweet summer child.

To put it in Douglas Adams words: Because the politicians are lizards ;)

I recently had a conversation with an LLM, where it told me after I asked “couldn’t we do it like the other x times”, something like "sure, let’s skip the “[something] standard style’ and make it the ‘your style’ approach”. I was like… “huh… you suggested that ‘your style’ in the first place”. Sometimes, it can sound quite condescending.

Holy shit, this is getting wilder and wilder. What’s next on the dystopian agenda? Burning all books considered as “woke”? Having everybody not voting for Trump wear some kind of marker? Censoring anything having another ideology and imprison (or worse) anybody trying to spread that information? Declaring prescription drugs as weapons of mass destruction? Oh, wait.

Oh man, my Dropbox situation was so fucked… unintentionally deleted directories, the Dropbox sync kicked in! Needless to say, never again did I trust a Cloud service. At least not in the way to be 100% dependent on it.

Assert dominance and look at them while you’re at it by the built-in camera.

There are so much more nice sites on the planet. South America has lots, New Zealand, Australia… Just to name a few. Why would I spent money to go to that place and thus supporting a fascist regime, getting profiled for nothing and be seen as a potential threat for nothing when there are so many better alternatives?

Maybe they should call themselves ICES

Hereeee we areeeee…

Isn’t expansion comparable to speed instead of acceleration? If the universe is expanding, i.e., already spreading in all kinds of directions constantly, wouldn’t slower expansion mean deceleration? But I guess you meant the same with “eventual collapse later, but probably not now”.

If it’s slowing down right now instead of expanding what was previously observed, that actually means that there was quite a force to get it into the other direction. Or am I misinterpreting things?
