That sounds correct

A shower is 1/10 of a haircut on the meditative activities scale.

In case you don’t actually know anybody under the age of about 35, the next time you are riding a bus or are a passenger in a car, start watching other drivers and see how many of them literally cannot put their phones down. Like even if they aren’t actually looking at them while they drive, which is like a solid 30% of all drivers, another significant chunk is holding the phone even when not in use. The shower is not even a high bar at this point.

I don’t even think she was that pro Israel though. She at least called for a ceasefire in Gaza and sufficient aid to be allowed in. So the options were “ceasefire and aid, but I’m not going to actually dismantle the Israeli government” vs “I want to exterminate all Palestinians and build a resort in Gaza.”

Ok, I know what it goes to and I know I don’t need that thing, but what if I need this specific gauge of for some future project?

Man, I would be all over the is of it was on lower end models so I can run graphene as my sketchy international travel phone. But I don’t really want to pay flagship prices for that. And I still believe in having a curated primary digital fingerprint.

It might not even be for vision applications. These little tegra boxes end up in all sorts of rapid prototype DSP applications. It could easy be doing comms or ECM.

It’s insecurity. He correctly understands that Facebook, and all social media is vapid, low tech bullshit. He badly wants to be seen as a visionary and an innovator and a tech ubermensch. Not just some dude who caught lightning in a jar with a slightly polished, pervy version of Myspace.

Never forget that they killed the API for a mere $60M AI deal.

Like, if spez apologized and restored API access, and made an effort to kick fascists off the platform, I might consider going back. But as is, I will watch with glee as he fucks over everyone stupid enough to buy his IPO.

The old point and shoot cameras didn’t really have better, or larger sensors. Phones are mediocre cameras compared to a DSLR or mirrorless camera in the hands of a skilled user. But I’d wager that most people would actually take better pictures with their phone than pro equipment.

Hell, if I ever end up in a hit and run, I’m half tempted to be like “idk, it happened so fast but I think the plate was [old boss’s plate].” Seems like open season on poison data with enough plausible deniability.

That’s what I mean - there’s definitely reasons the form factor makes sense. But anyone just walking around with it day to day is looking at T&A. Full stop.

I legitimately struggle to imagine what else you’d use them for unless you were doing daily vlogging, in which case you’d be talking to yourself and it would be pretty obvious. But anyone just like riding the subway with these things is just creeping until proven otherwise.

It’s been more than a few months. Also I am getting offers for meta glasses if I switch internet or cell carriers and shit, so I suspect some of those numbers are coming from wholesale contracts and not direct to customer purchases.

This has actually been the one thing I have been using AI for. I tell Gemini I’m going to cook some recipe and walk me through it and then ask questions as I’m going. Most of the time it does a decent job.

You might not notice your OIS is borked until you go on vacation and suddenly can’t get certain pictures to focus anymore. Excessive vibration and drops can definitely damage it. Though I imagine just a basic rubberized mount would help mitigate that a lot.

something that even low-end ANC earphones are doing

Because God forbid you take the fucking earbuds out of your head when talking to someone.

He didn’t even ask permission. He just started cutting the roof and nobody had the courage to ask him what he was doing.

Call me when they invent weed that makes me feel like I’m wearing grade 7 nipple clamps
