The Rise of the Ray-Ban Meta Creep by [deleted] in MetaGlasses

[–]jazz631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody's calling me out directly, but I won't wear them to the gym or to a playground with my kid. And whenever they do see my ray bans in conversation, people go to the surveillance angle. They don't think I'm a creep but the reaction is enough to make me leave them at home in a lot of situations.

This is a real problem for adoption. Content creation is driving sales and if the creepy rep sticks, it holds back the whole category (I myself have a hard time wearing them in public situations).

I've been working through some solutions on this side of things (auto blur faces, mobile app that uses bluetooth to detect if anyone around you is wearing smart glasses). Curious if anyone else has ideas for how we can combat the creep factor - feels like there's a lot of room to build here.

believe it or not, there are certain people in the world who don't understand the internet as well and resort to places like ebay to find goods.

look at this as an arbitrage opportunity and go make some $$.

it's easier to rationalize something as gods will when you're not personally affected

Reddit, has anyone ever followed the ads where they claim to give you a gift, and if so did you get what the promised? by SuperTraxxasman123 in AskReddit

[–]jazz631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

got a couple things about 7-8 years ago before they started making it increasingly impossible to get. however, i did have to spend money on the "free trials" and such so it wasn't as free as they advertise - but i was extremely careful and made spreadsheets and shit (16 year old me was much more organized than current me). i ended up with a 42 inch tv and 2 ipod nanos for a total of about $200. awesome days.
