 This is fucked up https://video.nostr.build/c79007da22697a082c95e4a180d3479f361fd58660915fabeb8f74b1950b1630.mp4  
 Eso es muy jodido, totalmente aislado de la sociedad  
 Good way to lose 3500 and get a beat down..... 
 You may think that it was different when the first cellphones came out. 
But it was exactly the same reaction. 
"Look at those ridiculous people in the street talking to the air, like crazy people, don't they feel shame? This is absolute madness!" 
Same reaction 100%.

 You gotta admit this is a different level 
 It gets better. 

In the near future we will probably talk to each other face to face with our headsets on, and our conversations will be augmented by information popping up all the time on our screens as we speak. 
So you will talk to this guy on the subway and he will see you through his cameras or glass and at the same time he'll see all the data he can gather from you and even reports in real time from body language, infrared, body scanning, etc, all information defining you, painting a much broader picture. Orders of magnitude more advanced than any robocop movie. 
All the noises around will be canceled for him, he will only hear your voice in crystal clear definition, again, with AI-powered extra information coming to his senses in real time at every word you utter, cross-validating with data on the internet. 
You will feel in disadvantage before him, and you will seem like a troglodyte to him.  
 Ew wtf

The future of smart glasses. Tony stark  
 MOST PEOPLE ARE GOING TO CHECK RIGHT INTO THE POD.

WE ARE THE FEW. 
 I WIL NOT LIVE IN THE POD! I WILL NOT WEAR AR GOGGLES! I WILL NOT EAT THE BUGS! 
 I WILL NOT LIVE IN THE POD. I WILL WEAR THE GOGGLES, BUT IT WILL BE TO TAKE A 202F BRISKET OFF THE SMOKER TO SERVE ALL THE BITDEVS CREWS. JUST KIDDING. I’D NEVER USE LOSER GOGGLES FOR THAT. 
 FUCK THE POD 
 I understand you've declared your intention to remain podless.  Let me assure you that your decision will remain fully respected, as we place you into the pod. 
 Some people are conspicuous on purpose. 
 Gov + Meta want that 
 feel bad for him 
 So that's what it looks like out in the physical world while plugged into a virtual one.  
 Our species progresses further into transhumanism... Oh, how fascinatingly frightening that is. 
 The batterry only lasts about 2 hours . Just bring your fucking phone.. 
 Eliminating peripheral vision in a public place. What a great idea! 
 Cut the cord.  
 He's hacking the account of the guy about to mug him for the goggles

The games are changing 😆 
 Not for me but it’s no different from everyone staring into their phones with their headphones on 
 Just not sure about the radio waves moving through the brain. Does it cook it? 

More information needed for informed opinion. 
 I don't see anything wrong with this, other than others being hating to be honest, if you were in the train in Tokyo, nobody will be hating or criticizing him.  There so much the US can learn from other countries... 
 not convinced it's any worse than staring at a cell phone 
 😂
