I suppose ultimately my problem isnt with the technology but with capitalism. The system where technological growth is second to infinite economic growth. Thats why many people like me fear the advance of technology. Because they do not advance technology for the common good but for the good of capital. Because of that they’re willing to do dangerous things in the namd of profit.

My probelm is putting too much technology in critical areas where they seemingly arent needed. Its just hard to be optimistic about the future of technology when everything is AI or enshittified garbage. I find it hard to belive this won’t jump on the same trends with forced online connectivity and a built in AI assistant. Theres a certain level of comfert in manual objects that dont need software updates or to even be charged. Sure it might help me (I wear glasses), but I worry about purchasing devices that I fundamentally do not own

I personally own a VR headset (Quest 2), honestly the latency and even low resolution isnt a big deal for me. I just think that some things (such as a pair of glasses), not only dont need smart functionality but I would actively rather have it be stable and reliable. There might be a situation where smart glasses can exist alongside traditional glasses but they’re certainly not a replacement.

The idea of a pair of glasses having latency, needing to be charged, and most likley requiring a mobile app is absolutely absurd

Its absolutely not unethical, companies usually have someone to reppace you before they even know if they’ll fire you.

Ill keep my manual glasses, these look awful

No, people just don’t want to learn anything. They want everything to stay the same and never make compromises. No there is never a drop in one to one replacement for Discord or Windows or whatever else.

Epic literally cannot even bother, they handed Linux to valve on a golden platter

This is true working class solidarity, never let the capitalists win

This is not surprising

Well you see the problem is you’re not voting hard enough, clearly if you just voted dem harder maybe they wouldn’t be spineless liberals

Woah thats crazy, the Zionist Occupation would never massacre mass amounts of civillians indiscriminately in horrific ways (or has explicitly threatened usage of nuclear weapons)

CONSOOOOOM

Without a space suit

Usually whenever I see a ton of downvotes its people doing the exact thing and I keep seeing it. Person makes strawman (ex: I say “I like socialism” and person responds “uh ok tankie, what about the holdomor”). I respond like a dumbass (I really should stop responding to low effort bad faith actors). They “own” me because world will mass downvote anyone who says uncomfortable truth and mass upvotes popular lies (damn this place really is like Reddit). Then I become the uneducated person who makes assumptions because I made the stupid mistake of responding. Yes I expert to be mass downvoted on this because the entire system is meant to incentive opinions you personally agree with in mass hoards of floads not opinions of any inherent value.

Ill try it :3

Thank you, I was worried :3

Ive never seen Bernie Sanders do that and I’ve certainly never personally seen any elderly people do that irl. Also Obama was a war criminal and despite having a Congressional majority did almost nothing with it.

The hell do you mean? Obama was a war criminal and Biden funded genocide. This concept may be foreign to you since you probrally live in a country witha proper left wing party but thats not America. In America the two parties are almost identical except one looks pretty. They’re both ran by Capitalists who take turns extorting and profiting off the backs of the working class and the exploitation of the global south. So maybe don’t make sweeping comments like that about a country you clearly dont understand.

Thats because Microsoft has refused to change anything meaningful, there are new mobs but they dont drop anything of value and there are new biomes but the blocks are all decorative. Microsoft knows they’ll screw it up so they only make surface level changes.
