People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

100%

It's an ownership thing.

There's a difference between "this is clickbait" and "yes this happened and here's our handy guide to burner credit cards that maybe we should have mentioned earlier"

I can see circumstances where it would be fine to admit that you work at salesforce, but this is in public where you are not surrounded by the kind of people who think it's okay to work at salesforce.

Imagine the level of delusion required to admit, in public, that you work at salesforce.

Being able to ride my bike down Sligo Creek Pkwy to the Manchester Rd or Piney Branch station is going to be such a game-changer.

The one where Jodie Whittaker gets caught cheating because of meta ray-bans implanted in her eyeballs is getting pretty close.

I know it wasn't written about me, but it could have.

That last sentence is spot on.

If someone believes their wife should be subservient and people of color/jews are subservient, then it's not logically inconsistent for a racist to marry a person of color.

If you are able to have Claude write 99% of your code, that is because your code is trivial or you simply do not care about the long-term of your project.

It is guaranteed that high usage of these tools will deteriorate one's ability to even judge whether one is deteriorating.

One was an itinerant farmer following the harvest. He taught me how to jump onto a moving train and explained it was the fastest way to get into the city for a weekend.

The other was a WWII vet who never talked about the war until a few years before he died and wow the alcoholism makes sense now.

Whether or not you’re running for Congress and trying to seem rugged (and you probably should run, because, look who’s out there) what did your grandpas do for a living?

The default font is sooooooo difficult to read now.

I changed it and after a reset it went back to the default and I just can't with this bullshit.

I booted up a linux distro last weekend and hoo-boy.

Pro: I didn't realize how slow Windows loaded programs until they just opened. It's snappy in a way that I didn't expect it could be.

Con: I've grown complacent and need to re-learn how to use computers. This is not a con, this is a pro.

Without further ado, let me briefly offer an analysis of an artfully shitty bike rack in El Segundo, California.

And using Dukat as the antichrist is just so boring and unfortunately the only way you could reasonably pull it off without pissing people off

It was kind of hinted at with the defensive/orthodox shift of the bajoran church, but then they went off the rails and tried to emulate a battle between heaven and hell, and, whoops, I'm bored.

More than anything I wish they explored the concept of finding your gods then realizing they don't actually give a shit.

To clarify, I'm fine with the aliens inside the wormhole, I just wish they weren't the gods of the Bajorans.

IMO being able to prove your gods are real kinda takes the edge off when you're trying to explore how religion works. Like, of COURSE you believe in the Prophets; they're RIGHT THERE

Like, left out of the series altogether, or it turns into a "ignore the man behind the curtain" thing?

Steinbeck: What did you think of my draft of π˜–π˜§ π˜”π˜°π˜Άπ˜΄π˜¦ 𝘒𝘯π˜₯ π˜”π˜’π˜―?

I think you do a great job of making a point without being overly condescending. I think you could pull it off.

It would be nice to see someone dig in on this point.
