I’ve seen them with propellers. They fly away when the alarm goes off.

Yeah, I won’t be going back to an actual alarm clock. Too many instances of waking up and realizing the power went out during the night and my alarm clock still thinks it’s 1am.

They went mad from having to use a keyboard without a space bar.

It’s much, much better now. I travel a lot for work and I use Apple Maps almost exclusively since iOS 8 and it’s never gotten me lost.

Just bought this last week and loving it so far. The only thing I don’t like is that the middle wheel no longer clicks left and right. The thumb pad gestures is what sold me on it. Definitely great for productivity.

No, the scroll wheel doesn’t click left and right. That’s really the only issue I have with it. The thumb wheel doesn’t click, but it’s not continuous scrolling like the middle wheel.

The mobile websites are mostly for phones, not tablets. Amazon on an iPad looks just like it does on a desktop.

Apps tend to be more intuitive for a touch interface than the web version. Websites are designed with a curser and large screens in mind. On tablets, navigation is usually simpler, menus are better integrated, swiping around on an app is easier than touching small text on websites, etc. I pretty much avoid the browser…

There’s pros and cons to both, and it comes down to which pros are more important to you. Android is arguably the more advanced mobile OS, but Apple has the better ecosystem, IMO. You just can’t beat the integration between all of Apple’s products. My Mac, iPhone and iPad are like separate pieces of one device. That’s…

For fucks sake your reading comprehension sucks. Did you even read about that app?

How about from companies that actually work with AR systems?

My understanding is just fine. There’s a difference between HUD and AR, and for some reason, you can’t comprehend that. Nothing about Google Glass augments reality. Nothing. You may as well be calling trucks “cars” because they’re both vehicles.

There’s a reason most colleges don’t let you use Wikipedia on research papers. This really isn’t hard to grasp. Just look up the word “augmented”. Reality isn’t being “augmented” with Google Glass. It’s just information displayed on a clear screen. It doesn’t interact with or alter reality. It’s not aware of the…

“I don’t see why you have a problem accepting that a HUD is augmenting your view of reality.”

Off the top of my head, I would guess size. It takes up the least amount of space than the other designs, except for maybe the owl clip. When you’re shipping millions, upon millions of something every day, you want he packages to be as small as possible.

No, you are seeing a HUD. HUDs don’t augment reality. They just display information in your field of view. That’s not AR. AR reads and alters the reality around you. Google Glass doesn’t do that. You can get HUD’s with AR technology, but Glass is just a simple heads up display.

We’ll just have to see what they do for Gen 2. But a HUD is not AR. A HUD is information placed in your field of view. AR incorporates that information directly with your surroundings. Google Glass, in it’s current form, is not AR.

Except, as another poster already said, Google glass isn’t an AR display. It’s more of a HUD. Microsoft HoloLens is AR.

I haven’t seen the latest episode yet, but I did finally start watching Entourage last week and Ari Gold is easily the best character. If Silicon Valley has that kind of character now, this season is going to be awesome.

It will only sell if they give up trying to make it a consumer product. I can see a surgeon or similar profession needing something like this. Market it towards those industries. Not 20 year old hipsters who just want to take pictures of their food.
