Go Bills, fellow Reddit expat and I definitely miss just getting news posted about the team and Lemmy is nowhere near that level of activity. I’ve ended up just going back to old.Reddit and browsing new here and there - no commenting, not logged in, so it’s not nearly as time consuming as it used to be. Hopefully someday people will use Lemmy for stuff like this!

Notice how he didn’t respond to this either lol

As somebody who wanted google glass back in the day and thinks AR glasses would be really really cool, this is ultimately where I end up on it, and with a lot of tech in general: the primary usefulness of any of this shit is in accurate and relevant information, and that’s the part of the equation that these big companies are definitely NOT in the business of producing. In fact, they seem to have discovered a while back that inaccurate and irrelevant information being blasted in your face is the real money maker. And now with AI/ML producing so much/filling in gaps, I just can’t imagine that it’s going to get any better.

That being said, I think the tech is so cool. I’d love to travel to a new city and be able to get directions around to different sightseeing spots and real time star ratings above all the restaurants instead of anxiously glancing at my phone the entire time. If we ever get to that level of goodness I’m in, but I have a lot of doubts that it’ll ever be more than another attention-seeking thing attached to your body.

The type of people that are on Lemmy will generally agree with this, but let me just say as somebody with a wife and plenty of friends that are girls that digital marketing very much works, very much is effective, and you’re probably just not the target market. This, of course, is independent of your Digital Bubble remark, which I generally agree with. Also, not in marketing as a disclaimer.

Not yet but they look comfy

My company just went under and let us keep our laptops, day after they wiped it I got Ubuntu on it. So I’m a little bit of column A, little bit of column B!

I think you’re missing the point of this conversation a little bit buddy. Go back and read all of the comments you’ve replied to and see if you can figure out what you’re missing from the commentary.

So, like, it’s just your interpretation?

Fellow early 30s 0 point gang right here, my back has been flaring up lately…

Or a zero if they read the point system correctly ;)

Can you point to the verse that condemns that behavior?

Link is broken for me

Yeah but the bald eagle in particular has a proclivity towards cowardice and scavenging, despite its size. Red tailed hawk or turkey is a much more admirable bird
