But can she count how many E’s are in seventeen?

I’ve noticed that with my partner with ADHD, and also my sister with ADHD. Neither can easily deal with multiple topics in one message. Curious.

if this is apartment management they need to be given out individually

i personally enjoy my privacy rights. it’s not like police here don’t use for example dashcam footage. they do. so our privacy rights are already sometimes being ignored in favor of practicality. but glassholes go a step too far. i do not want to be surveilled by a private company 24/7. i do not want male-to-male transgender (a looksmaxxer) chad broski to record women without their consent and then post the video online as power signaling, and to goon over it. make it a free and democratic association using open source hardware and code, and open weights models hosted in the respective country with strong privacy guarantees, and I’m maybe on board again. roll it out very slowly, address issues as they come up and don’t make the product even worse for privacy before regulations can step in, only to call it inevitable and the future and thus regulation-proof when the law has time to catch up. legal repercussions should be severe, as you are violating a fundamental human right.

if violating privacy rights was so important then it should still not be done by facebook

i have issues with getting things done, called executive dysfunction. i tried AI for programming and felt myself getting dumber very quickly. nope, that’s not it. better do it myself.

smart glasses are not hammers. aside from the disability aid angle, they are primarily used by perverts for perverted use cases, and facebook wants to double down on that angle with face recognition, so they know their audience.

if these were prescribed by a doctor I would react very differently

I’m staunchly against normalizing being recorded all the time in public

it’s much more innocuous, to the point that many people can’t even tell you’re recording or wearing anything special that’s sending your image directly to facebook, especially if you drill out the notification light (which many perverts do do)

generally here in germany there’s a right to privacy if a person is your primary subject, even in public. you need their consent. there’s a difference between people being in the background and only incidentally and going up to people and “appreciating” them with a recording that facebook sees and also the whole world sees because you post it online as a way to signify your power over innocent women

yeah i just had a small brain fart, nothing to worry about

one specific company’s cars do not use lidar, and can thus be confused by salt

EDIT: oops I thought it was reading the salt as a physical obstacle, but no, it reads it as a road marking. oops.

blind people are actually decently assisted by smart glasses. it’s just a shame they’re mostly used by perverts. there should be a state-sanctioned version only for blind people, with limited features, and an open weights AI model hosted somewhere in the same country with data not used for training and such.

about the private security cameras, somehow amazon smart doorbells are still a thing though, and fairly common

I instead remember the Chilean coup of 9/11 1973, where Augusto Pinochet overthrew the democratically elected socialist government of Chile with the support of the USA.

an underrated feature in duckduckgo is easily toggling between international search results and local (my country) search results. both are things I want often, but I much more rarely want to select any other country, so it makes sense for the toggle to work the way it does. also noai duckduckgo is a blessing.

i haven’t had to switch to google in years. when I can’t find something it’s usually because I am looking for something from over a decade ago that nothing can find. I guess you have to search differently with alternative search engines, and I still have that proficiency.

Ey I’m poopin’ in here!

would be awesome to have a tv judge execute people on the spot, specifically billionaires

i would add onto this more open world activities

for example for GTA VI I’ve extracted from the recent gameplay preview these activities:

• basketball
• jetski
• hovercraft / airboat
• motorcycle races
• car races
• shooting gallery
• robbing people, robbing every single store you can go into
• parachuting
• kayaking
• working out to gain permanent stats
• boxing / MMA
• wrestling
• underwater diving

really I actually want a functioning economy, complete with the possibility to work and scheme and murder your way up any company, own any real estate, operate any factory, etc. Even work as a janitor if you want to. i know that’s really unrealistic, but a man can dream. (the closest to the economy simulation thing is the recently released PC game big ambitions, but it’s just not the same. there’s also shadows of doubt for a fully simulated single crime-ridden city, but again not the same.)

obviously you can just cycle the calories away with your amazing new doctor-mandated Peloton Indoor Training Bicycle™️

the monkey paw curls and you end up as a regular guest in a playthrough by someone who tortures all their guests using flamethrowers, fireworks, electric zapping, and crashing things into you.
