This means I’m not ignoring them, just not even seeing them
And yet your answer is exactly the right amount of words for the expected reading comprehension of the one making it.
Some people fight for rights. Others like yourself just fight for vibes. Also bears some association to the amount of words they can usually deal with.
(Case in point ↓ - What is this, kindergarten?)
So the same thing smartphones are? It’s easy to run install and run spy apps on them that record everything.
Everybody is getting so anxious about new technology these days. Smart glasses are pervert glasses, AI is completely bad and cannot have any possible good use, etc. Maybe the problem isn’t with the technology, but with the companies and the corruption world wide.
It’d be easy with regulations to have LEDs to go along with recording functions to notify other users when they are, but it seems these technologies are being allowed to run rampant spying under the scummiest of companies who do want to record and obtain your private information. Nobody is putting up even the most basic roadblocks or bothering to be transparent about their software.
Only reason I care is because I have AR ones that are basically a privacy asset - they allow me to work on my work laptop without installing their spyware drivers and do so without anyone looking over to see what I’m doing. No AR that way, and couldn’t even use the cameras to take pictures anyway. The company that made them moved on to support only their latest models. I would jump at open sourced AR glasses, with recording warning LEDs and everything. Hard to come up with a better privacy solution than something only you can see and hear. Unfortunately, unlikely that the companies leading the charge will care about privacy over the money they could get from selling to Palantir given who the majority of the buyers are.
Don’t just saw down flock surveillance cameras. Repurpose those solar panels so they can do some good.
It’s basically at the thought-crime level of threatening, although a bit more real. More importantly, it’s an excuse industries that are threatened can lock on to so they don’t have to worry about low cost alternatives. A metal rod and some gunpowder = ghoster gun.
They were carrying 2 tons of supply, so Cuba at least got something but that’s less than a truck can carry. I don’t know of any solar panel technology that could provide “5-10MW” that could be shipped in just 2 tons.
And did they? I would have gone with refined uranium, that stuff is pretty valuable. I must have missed where they can carry the freight containers worth of solar panels you claim they are.
Strawman much?
Is it surprising if they take a pleasure cruise shortcut after their donation drives? The Gaza flotilla ships were at least twice as big, involved more, and they also looked the part. These look like surfer dude sailboats on vacation.
Even symbolically these don’t seem to hold up to scrutiny. I am not a ship connoisseur, but still…
If those are the boats in the image, that’s really stretching the definition of what an “aid” ship can be.
China is only as bad as your tendency to criticize your government. Free speech and associated quality issues aside, it has to function as one.
