Lack of diversity = lack of diversity of opinion. We are in a tech echo chamber, like it or not.

And your following two questions are a great illustration of just that.

I think Lemmy is a bit of a chamber of white, technology-oriented men. People here think that most people are OK with wearing technology on their face.

Ironically, we’re also very Privacy-oriented, but everyone’s kind of forgetting all the cameras and microphones required to make all this AR tech work.

Someone put it nicely - if I see you with your Google Glass in a public toilet, you’re leaving with a bloody nose.

This might be the dumbest take I’ve heard today.

You’re forgetting that AR headgear requires to WEAR THAT THING ON YOUR FACE AT ALL TIMES

No matter how compact (don’t even start talking about some techbro “all conteined in a lens” type of shit), there will absolutely, always be people who will refuse to wear it. (Ask any former glasses user who went for contact lenses)

A phone you glance at and is in your pocket only when you need it is a million times more convenient than something that goes over your eyes all of the time.

Your world where external compact computing devices (phone/tablet/smartwatch/a slab of glass) are no longer needed is mostly constructed out of flatulence of the technology brotherhood.

Good, I wanna see Apple flop just like Meta’s VR nonsense did.

I’m failing to find any info on how they are funding the servers in their website.

Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
