mcmagic posted:The part of the promotional video where the guy is sitting in an empty room reliving a time when his family there is almost unfathomably bleak. to make a recording of that you have to record while wearing the thing. so i guess youre like walking around your kids birthday party with that strapped to your face the whole time recording "the memories".

bvj191jgl7bBsqF5m posted:Are iPads even useful in any context other than an easy way to have somebody to sign a waiver at a paintball field and getting a toddler to shut the gently caress up? They've actually changed a lot about how people use computers and in certain fields have replaced laptops and handheld computers just about entirely. Ironically, for all the end user focused uix bullshit the iPad is largely a work device for many people, I don't know what percentage of their sales this accounts for but I would imagine it's quite a lot. They have been ubiquitous at every shop I've done support for since the things launched. The biggest users are sales people and field technicians, ipads in ruggedized cases are surprisingly tough and have eaten a lot of the market share of computers like the toughbook Engorged Pedipalps has issued a correction as of 19:03 on Jun 6, 2023 |

they’re going to sell every vision pro they can possibly make to bored six figgie computer touchers who’ll play around with it for a week before relegating it to porn duty

apparently the availability is so far out because manufacturing has been an insanely difficult challenge due to the fragile curved laminated glass and the way it all has to be fitted together because of the aesthetic design. the curved circuit boards are apparently tough as well but it’s the ridiculous external facing glass panel display that’s really loving things up when they dump the stupid bullshit design and put the tech in something less stupid looking at half the price it’ll take off as a replacement to ipads for content consumption

having (very expensive I'm sure) Zeiss prescription lens inserts is smart. way better than getting your glasses and face all scratched up by the headset

Not quite the right scale/accuracy for my application but it's very impressive what consumer grade electronics are getting to be capable of.
