My wife wore Meta glasses (we borrowed a pair from a friend) on a visit to the Vancouver aquarium and they were frankly amazing. You could just hit a button and say something like “what’s that orange fish in the back?” and it just tells you and then you can read stuff off the plate or get more information if you need.
I get that this kind of dunk polemic is popular among a certain crowd but it’s more incantatory than persuasive. For the rest of us who don’t particularly dress stylishly or whatever I guess it’s fine. I can be tacky. Not the greatest sin.
- milkshakes 4mo agoyou can already do this with your phone without casually and needlessly invading the privacy of everyone around you
- arjie 4mo agoYes, and now I can do it with my glasses without casually and needlessly invading the privacy of everyone around me - except the fish and I’m not that convinced by an argument for fish privacy.
- AgentME 4mo agoIs the phone's camera more privacy-preserving than the glasses's camera?
- frizlab 4mo agoYes, obviously? Holding a phone to film someone is obvious, having glasses that film is just having glasses…
- bloody-crow 4mo agoWhat kind of privacy are people supposed to expect in a public place like an aquarium?
