Yeah, I'll take the downsides, thanks (and you can always set "do not disturb")
- coldtea 4y agoYeah, after all what is more technological dependence, more surveillance, constant attention hijacking/addiction, huge powerful conglomerates like Apple and Google controlling huge parts of the economy, mediated experience of the surroundings, and so on, compared to being able to more quickly find your way back when your car breaks somewhere outside the city!
- klyrs 4y ago> you can always set "do not disturb" This is my hill to die on. You can't set your friends' phones to DND. Camping with friends means that somebody is still tethered to the internet, blathering about the news that I'm generally trying to get away from. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook are ever-present even if you don't personally use them. You can't log out, even if you never logged in. AR will bring that to a whole new level. Fuck this future.
