Someone did that already actually: Here’s the article

Sounds like a good way to get hit by a bus

This sounds like an absolute win

This definitely made me ROFL. God I wish this was a thing in real life that you can put over your eyes.

Gork, in Someone make glasses that do this please.

I would totally wear smart goggles that do this.

Unfortunately it’s far more likely that we will receive smart goggles that add ads, not subtract them.

A_Union_of_Kobolds,

Why am I picturing Roddy Piper…

badbrainstorm,

Came here for the They Live comments

Kusimulkku,

“I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass…”

Mikina,

Yes and no. For ads to make any kind of revenue, you first need an user-base. And if the first thing you do is riddle them with ads, it will probably really hurt the sales.

So, the first generation of smart glasses should be pretty OK as far as ads go. Of course, they will gradually introduce them, but that will hopefully take several years before we get to that point.

And inevitably some FOSS/privacy focused alternative will show up, just like you have with GrapheneOS, PinePhone and similar. Or, assuming they will let developers side-load their apps without going through proprietary store (which may be unlikely, given the current trend of locking everything down - on the other hand, there is a pretty large market of developers who wouldn’t touch anything Apple-level of closed and someone will definitely want to cash in on it), you will eventually get OCR ad-blocks for billboards outside. I bet that would be one of the first apps developed once possible.

I can’t believe no one has posted the xkcd writeup on the International Choice of Urinal Protocol (ICUP) in this thread yet.

sleep_walker,

Thanks for saving me few seconds - I needed this here!

Always curious about this: how do you guys feel about talking while washing hands? Acceptable? Not?

Default behaviour

Kusimulkku,

Don’t see why it wouldn’t be acceptable. But if you’re a stranger then don’t talk to me.

tdawg,

Nah I had a coworker who would get weird about it. We shared a small office space with a couple of other coworkers but this guy in particular would always say “no talking in the men’s room” if you tried to chat him up while washing/drying your hands. Always thought it was funny he cared that much

Kusimulkku,

Maybe it was a really chatty office and he just needed a break? I could sympathize with that haha

sangriaferret,

Acceptable. We are enemies on the battlefield but as we reenter civilized society we must behave as such.

This is an American thing, right? what the hell are those? i.e. context plz

KnightontheSun,

Men typically do not want to urinate right next to another. The proper format is every other urinal. Men want that extra space for their own shenanigans.

Yeah, spray and all… Sorry, thought that was a real thing, not a metaphor.

Nice, worthy watch, up there with bidets.

IndiBrony, in My Music Playlist be like:
@IndiBrony@lemmy.world avatar

Call me old fashioned, but I still download my music.

I play them through Sony’s music App (I’m sure there are better ones out there), but the shuffle feature takes all the songs you want to play and creates a randomised playlist out of them - no song repeats!

Also, it means I get to listen to my music in complete lossless form without ads or the potential to lose connection to a service.

Oha,

same. navidrome shuffles pretty well

Really_long_toes,

If you’re old fashioned, then so am I, exept I use plexamp, it’s not bad but it could be way better

jaybone, in Someone make glasses that do this please.

Someone’s going to make glasses that do the opposite.

Eldritch, in Someone make glasses that do this please.

Bad idea. See the taxi coming right at the photographer. He’d have gotten run over if he didn’t see it.

mcmoor, in My Music Playlist be like:

It’s so bad that 3 of my most played songs are not my most favorite songs, solely because the shuffler keep shoving it to my throat over and over again. I mean, I like those songs, but not THAT much.

You had to block the sky?

holycrap,

That’s an ad for Bluesky^tm the new social media network

CraigeryTheKid, in Someone make glasses that do this please.

I tuned into the NYC new years, and I guess it’s been awhile since I saw images of NYC - holy shit, it looks terrible! HAPPY KIA NEW YEARS! seriously? every inch of building is a scrolling screen. wow.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Those NYC countdowns are a eyesore. And the mooks willing to stand in freezing cold, waving corporate branded trinkets.

Those shows are wild.

Thcdenton,
