Resistance is Futile
“People who constantly reach into a pocket to check a smartphone for bits of information will soon have another option: a pair of Google-made glasses that will be able to stream information to the wearer’s eyeballs in real time.” [NYT]
Great for reading the Washington Post online.
Cool, can I get a pair for driving?
Reminds me of that ST:TNG episode where Wesley gets addicted to an eyeball-streaming video game, gets the crew hooked, and everything goes to hell.
Besides, it won’t stop people from falling over or running into walls.

@¡Andrew!: I hated that dweeb, and wasn’t keen on his Mom either.

@Dodgerblue: Really? I would’ve thought that Dr. Bev was your type.
Were you more of a Counselor Troi guy? She had all them extra-sensory perceptions–especially in crowded elevators.*
*Stole it from MAD Magazine.
@¡Andrew!: You nailed it, Andrew. We could talk 7 of 9, but that was another show.
@Dodgerblue: She was packin’ way more than nanoprobes.
“Two snaps and a clap for a body like that,” thus quoteth Salt ‘n Pepa.
Yes, and cats can fly.
All of this is making me nostolgic for a simpler time, before the premise for They Live became a plausible explanation for the current state of society.
@Dodgerblue: We don’t fuck around, ese.
Reminds me of an item from the Onion: “New law prohibits Kaleidoscoping while driving.”
