I fondly remember the times where Glassholes were rightfully mocked. Now it's cool to drive around in your Tesla wearing an Apple Vision. It really seems to have become very normalized.
- smeej 2y agoGoogle Glass still stands out as the only thing I can ever remember encountering that made me think, "Wow, that's even too dorky for me." I dislike Apple's version for other reasons, but for something to out-dork me really takes a lot.
- tantalic 2y agoBeing cool and getting a lot of views/clicks should not be confused.
- wnevets 2y ago> Now it's cool to drive around in your Tesla wearing an Apple Vision. This may have more to do with your particular social circle (or mine) than a general trend in pop culture. I don't know anyone who thinks any of those are cool.
- talldayo 2y agoIt's funny to me because pretty much every single issue that the Google Glass had still persists: - it's too damn expensive (you look like a rich klutz wearing one) - the content is mostly just normal games and videos that you watch in stereo - the FOV and camera resolution are too poorly miniaturized to do anything serious with Why doesn't it surprise me that public perception did a 180 when they saw the brushed-aluminum model with an Apple logo on it? At this rate Apple should sponsor a second Hindenberg just to check if their luck's run dry.
- svachalek 2y agoAre you thinking of the Quest or something? Google Glass didn't have content or a FOV.
- adastra22 2y agoPart of the difference is that Glass was uploading images (and audio?) to Google for them to use however they like. That was the asshole invasion of privacy. People trust Apple more, right or wrong.
