It’s really not the same. One of the biggest issues with Glassholes was that it wasn’t clear they were wearing something unusual at first sight, especially from certain angles. That you didn’t know you were being recorded didn’t help, and I’m guessing that the Quest 3 isn’t secretive about that like Google Glass. But even if it is, I think everyone is going to do their best to avoid the guy walking around with that thing strapped to their head.
People being recorded by cameras 24/7 when in public: How dare these glassholes record me!
It’s a known fact when wearing a mask people are able to experience less social anxiety and worry about how they’re perceived. I wouldn’t be surprised if wearing a big headset on your face has a similar effect for people’s social behaviour.
It’s impressively true. I build an interesting perspective shifting rig, for a festival. It let you see yourself in the 3rd person (think GTA follow cam). I was a lot more confident interacting with people I didn’t know, while wearing it, despite looking like a complete weirdo. 😁
That’s so cool though.
I like how they are called glassholes. It sounds like another word I like.
Why wouldanyone want to do that?
Yeah just saw an ad for the Ray-Ban surveillance Wayfarer glasses. Ray-Ban has been dead to me ever since it was sold to Luxotica (the near-monopoly that explains why $40 glasses cost $180). It’s kind of perfect now to see overpriced-for-no-good-reason branding being zombied yet further
I was an Oakley fan until Luxotica bought them up…
I guess it’s time to invest in spraypaint …
Right. Let’s all get assault charges by destroying someone else’s expensive technology.
