- The Stable Genius claims that he also founded this company.utopian
- I thought it was well known that he didn't, and was just their clown. Another testament of his ignorance, because their cars are shit.garbage
- Tesla Boyz will be a thing in the near future. To my knowledge there are two exploits that anybody with basic knowledge can steal the car.garbage
- That goes for almost any EV, but jailbreaking a Tesla is not hard at all. Any owner should have a club as a visual deterrent.garbage

- Until we can have the functionality of the Pro in a HUD within 'as standard as possible' glasses like the RayBan then it's never going to go mainstream.microkorg
- You can only go mainstream when folk are comfortable not looking like an absolute tit wearing your tech.microkorg
- Heard this directly from mouth of someone who worked on the Google Glass project. Way, way ahead of its time.microkorg
- Even then where are you allowed to wear then if you can take images and video without people knowing? This was a problem with Google Glasses too.Nutter
- either way the market segment is still going to be the same personality type who get personalized/vanity license plates...jonny_quest_lives
- As a glasses wearer. If I could leave the house without having to take my phone and just wear a device that looks like regular glasses then I'm up for it.microkorg
- From my understanding these products aren’t even in the same galaxy of functionality.monospaced
- doesn't matter how cool the glasses are nobody likes you walking around pointing a camera at them_niko
- So true Niko. Me included.monospaced
- They know their demographic, don’t they?hotroddy
- Raybans are camera. VisionPro is a full blown computer. Is qbn getting stupider?inteliboy
- Yeah I had to check what the Meta Ray Bans actually include...they can record video and play music. The new version also includes an AI voice assistant.yuekit
- But there's nothing relating to AR or VR. No display projected inside the glasses like Google Glass.yuekit

- Cmon letterhead post your kids phone pics .Ramanisky2
- The kid's phone pics:
https://drive.google…letterhead - I really struggled with the low light in the canyon. most of my camera pics are blurry and/or noisy. No tripods allowedletterhead
- Nice man thanks for posting those phone pics. Your kid’s a natural.Ramanisky2
- Yeah I had the same lo light struggles out on the westcoast where most pics came out either too noisy or blurry.Ramanisky2
- But there was always 1 or 2 that came out almost perfect. I must of taken 3,000 shots out there with my Canon MarkII camera.Ramanisky2

World War 3
Although the Western media doesn't talk about it much there's also a war going on in Myanmar...the military government, which is supported by Russia, could be close to falling to the pro-democratic forces.
- I spent half a day in Myanmar. It was probably one of the most fucked up experiences I ever had.zaq
- What happened?yuekit
- I've never been there (and wouldn't go now) but it seems like a fascinating place to visit, similar to Thailand but more rural and traditional.yuekit
- I have been there in 2016. One of the best traveling experiences I ever had. It is a beautiful country and the people I met were wonderful. I hope to go againd_gitale
- I just read a wikipedia article on Karen National Liberation Army..rzu-rzu
- Yeah the Karen people probably predate the English name Karen
https://en.wikipedia…yuekit - One of the interesting things about this part of the world is how fragmented it is, there are all these different ethnic groups going back thousands of yearsyuekit
- with their own culture and many of them don't live under the control of the central government.

Vision Pro
Apple has cut its 2024 Vision Pro shipments to 400–450k units (vs. market consensus of 700–800k units or more).
- if only there were indicators of fledgling/waning demand in the VR/spatial space by a major brand... oh waitjonny_quest_lives
- https://kotaku.com/p…jonny_quest_lives
- anyhoojonny_quest_lives
- ░M░Y░P░ U░S░S░ Y░I░ N░B░I░O ░jonny_quest_lives
- This is just a sign that the market was saturated with early adopters. If anyone reads this as a sign that Apple has problems they’re probably a fucking idiotmonospaced
- Was the demand expected to be that great for a $3.5k product with no clear use case?yuekit
- Who is the homeless dude with no teeth?utopian
- Still think if Apple believed in the space they would've reduced their per unit markup. Their sales mirror every VR headset product drop by manufacturer.jonny_quest_lives
- Perfect for narcissistic knobs like the moron in the pic_niko
- SONY VR had a consumer friendly price point and ecosystem/games ready to go and it still was a niche product compared to their console salesjonny_quest_lives
- Microsoft Hololens sold roughly 300k units thru mid 2022 Meta Quest is an absolute juggernaut in the spacejonny_quest_lives
- Seems like Apple started work on this back when the VR/Metaverse hype was at its high point. By the time it was actually released expectations were alreadyyuekit
- granted my pov is more gaming side versus the harder to define "spatial computing" space Apple is trying to definejonny_quest_lives
- being lowered. There were even stories last year quoting people at Apple who said they disagreed with releasing it!yuekit
- if true Apple shoulda blown it out the door for $599 for gigglesjonny_quest_lives
- still not as bad as the $10k Apple Watch Edition from 2016jonny_quest_lives
- let us not forget... https://www.theverge…jonny_quest_lives
- @utop It's even worse. It's Casey Neistat.garbage
- Considering all the tech in the vision I don’t think sub $1000 was even possible. This was never a major
Consumer device. It’s a proof of concept.monospaced - OBVIOUSLY Apple will learn from this, iterate, improve and develop as prices go down, tech shrinks and consumer base grows.monospaced
- The original iPod was heavy AF, clunky, etc. a few years later and the nano outperformed it at 20-30x smaller.monospaced
- the original ipod went from prototype to release in 9 months and retailed for $399 adjusted for inflation that would be $703jonny_quest_lives
- as for functionality the ipod was always "there" it wasn't sold as "think of what it could be"jonny_quest_lives
- also still a niche fanbase for upgrading saving 1st gen ipodsjonny_quest_lives

- Steve Jobs Approved form factor: https://www.wired.co…jonny_quest_lives
- test mule with final release for comparison: https://images.india…jonny_quest_lives
- You’re missing my my point entirely it seems. Ughmonospaced
- The Vision Pro will get lighter faster and cheaper. Again it was never meant to be a new iPod though. Nobody ever said that dude.monospaced
- when has an apple product ever gotten cheaper after launch? just curious. that's definitely non Apple behavior.jonny_quest_lives
- lemme check... https://www.apple.co…jonny_quest_lives
- nope still $699jonny_quest_lives
- yes it could get faster... it could get smaller... cheaper not unless apple wants to grow the space for normiesjonny_quest_lives
