Good question, seems newer but rely on the same mechanism.

FWIW I think detecting VR with Meta Quest, Apple Vision Pro, Pico VR is quite funny. It’s like … hard NOT to detect such devices. You see a huge slab of plastic on the face of someone potentially looking in your direction and the cameras are numerous and visible.
So… for Meta Ray-Ban and Oakley Meta definitely because they are designed to look like traditional glasses and that’s IMHO very wrong. For others like Snap Spectacles or TCL RayNeo it’s quite obvious but still, OK makes sense.
Sadly as 404 media and others reported a lot of abuse came from wearing sneakingly such glasses then coercing people with the footage. I hope people who do abuse those tools do get prosecuted properly.
Alpine in container is typically considered the smallest one can conveniently use (not going through LinuxFromScratch or writing your own OS). I did some tinkering a while back ending up with 14.29MiB memory footprint.


So I think if one is looking for PeerTube to be a copy of YouTube in terms of both content and monetization they will be disappointed… but also maybe that’s the problem in itself. YouTube monetization is damaging (forcing to be a popularity contest) and bring poor content in. Sure some very few content creator are still on it but a lot already moved away. The assumption though is that there is a link between popularity and quality. It’s time to reconsider.


Peertube and others are not nearly anp viable option yet
Can you please clarify why not?


I’m not sure you’re understanding my perspective so I can make it explicit : I took their comment as snarky, not helpful, trying to make their view as objective without helping me and others understanding why their position was better.
HUD, head up display, being able to have information displayed on the move without using your hands.
There are some already, e.g. https://docs.brilliant.xyz/ with firmware you can replace or https://mentraglass.com/ and I even made one by sticking a RPi with its tiny camera on 3D printed frames https://twitter-archive.benetou.fr/utopiah/status/1449023602079240194/

I’m not saying it’s a good idea or that it’s private enough, just that it’s not a theoretical questions, alternatives to Meta or Google Glass do exist already and some of them are not cloud dependent.
IMHO what’s important is to be explicit about usage, understand how it’s used and have informed consent. If you use them to be sneaky and hurt others, even if they are “privacy focused”, fuck off.


Were you not condescending? Don’t you believe you started this?
You could have said :
or basically anything that prompts a discussion by kindly clarifying.
Instead you basically said “Apples are not oranges” and now you are saying replies are toxic.


earnings before taxes was 3 279m so 100k is well nothing.
Genuinely confused now, are you saying “your nothing” is different from “my nothing”?


Damn, sounds like a wild guess though, how about revenue? /s


Why all that version over using the public access computers of your local library?


Right… which… is why I wrote revenue and not operational profit? Was I unclear? What should I have shared instead? Please feel free to clarify directly with whatever you believe would be better and why, we can all learn.


lol, $100k+… HP revenue in 2024 was $53,559,000k.
Dell same year $88,000,000k and Lenovo $69,000,000k, so ~$50B to $90B
I let you calculate the percentage but… I’d guesstimate it’s approximately nothing.
Upvoted your comment using f to get link hints, then xy (example of label) so 3 keystrokes, no mouse.
Yes. I also use vim here (in this Web textarea where I’m typing this answer) thanks to Tridactyl.


Honestly it’s trickier than most think.
There are plenty of theoretical use cases, sure, especially for AI because it’s basically just either statistics on very large datasets or heuristics. Most of us, if not all of us, use that pretty much daily.
LLM though is a lot of less obvious but one can easily imagine public research on language, namely being able to study how language evolved.
GenAI… also, in itself honestly it might even be the most interesting of all because it’s makes us pragmatically ask what it’s like to be creative.
Yet… all that is so SO different from the commercialization and the capture of it.
So public research in AI, I’m 100% behind it. It can be useful. VC backed for-profit systems that extract and capture value, no, nearly nothing legitimate can come out of this… but to be fair it’s not limited to AI, AI just happens to be the last thing they try to capture.


Ugh… just replace them with robots! So easy I should be World CEO. /$ (obviously)
Fairness is pretty much a left-wing principle whereas excluding others from the inner group is a right-wring principle… so it makes sense.
