I need a good reason to spend $2000 to do something I can already do with a $100 phone. Using 2 hands is very niche.

A corporate marketers imagination. Yes.

But Apple will happily take a 30% cut of everything bought using the AR glasses.

All of this can be done with AR on a mobile phone.

Only when you need to do this AND have both hands free do AR glasses become necessary. So surgery, bomb refusal or something niche like thar.

I’m not sure that wish will every be granted. You need some sort of specific software to get the hardware communicating.

I want an open source version of this https://www.evenrealities.com/

That’s pill. They just have to sugar coat it enough for everyone to swallow it (like we did with phones).

Totally. I’d also love to train a LLM on my own personal data and preferences, but there is no way I’m trusting a corporation that information.

This AR obsession is utterly baffling to me.

• It’s a mobile phone you don’t need to hold.

• It’s a mobile phone that never goes in your pocket.

• It’s a mobile phone that is always on and has access to everything you see and hear.

Are you outside the US?

The point is that foreigners influence elections all the time, all over the world.

Americans meddle all the time, but are the only one that start crying when it’s done to them.

It really started in 2016 when US security agencies released a joint report showing Russia was spreading misinformation to help Trump win the election.

Compare russia to the British and consider who is the bigger villain.

Hmm. Long term is a more difficult constraint.

I think short term can be just as effective at damaging Musk.

It’s hard to be mobile with deflated tyres.

Even just a dirty windshield and rear camera (on the top of the tailgate) will reduce Tesla share price without running the risk of a prison sentence.

Burning makes the world a more dangerous and polluted place.

There are much more eco friendly ways to vandalise and immobilise.

It used to be good. Maybe it’s been enshitified. I couldn’t see the business model.

That sounds Italian American to me.

I suspect the Irish part of that description is highly misleading.

In 2025, is Irish-American culture anything more than wearing green on “St. Pattys” day and supporting Boston Celtics?

Don’t forget:

• his dad was rich

Americans totally have more knowledge and understanding of their own culture.

Irish-Americans have very little knowledge and understanding of Irish culture
