Taunting the general public. Always a winning move.
That’s some chaotic good shit
Now someone needs to make AR glasses with the sole purpose to detect and blur out ads
More likely that technology will be used to overlay targeted ads
Yeah, but then somebody is going to crack them and make an adblock for real life.
Replacing all ads with cat and dog videos
CatTube Premium
Which most people will not use because they don’t want to void their warranty
I’m not most people then.
“Peril-Sensitive sunglasses”
anti-google glass
i fear the opposite is going to happen
Then, invariably, they put out a update that just puts in their own ads
Is this before or after they beam them directly into our dreams? I could really use a pair of lightspeed briefs…
Adblock+/brave browser glasses
Fuck chrome, Firefox with ublock origin
Agreed, FOSS ftw
Preach it, I’ll always take Foss options if they’re available.

This is called “being blind”.
Those Braille reader screens will start injecting ads.
And these dumb fuck advertisers will advertise something like car insurance on there.
I always get these spam letters in the mail about how I am preapproved for car insurance. Like I don’t even have a drivers license, so their approval process is clearly not very thorough.
Technically they didn’t block it enough, you can still read the company name. Advertisers will love it even more because it will circulate social media. I hate this game.
Challenge accepted. :)

Crazy how we could just pass a law outlawing billboards and ads like this. But we don’t.
There are voter initiatives in so many states, but we don’t use them for anything fun. Just carrying water for Uber to protect it from its employees or finding new ways to oppress minorities.Imagine how different Time Square would be if those billboards showed valuable information instead

This is my favorite thing that I’ve seen this week.
Does anyone know the original ad?
CONSUME
Think it’s an ad for an ad company
why do you want to expose yourself to an ad, fuck that
Nope, but looks like the bus shelter manufacturer is advertising their own ad spot

Somewhere the cool teacher that everyone likes has this hanging as a poster on their wall I just know it
- Insert Firefox meme here.
No matter how clever you think you are, there is always someone more clever.
I used to think AR was a niche thing for business and kinda dumb for every day use but then I thought: You’d be able to block ads. Graffiti. Garbage. Just filter the world into a cartoon if you want. Now I fucking wish I had some AR device so I can literally live inside a fantasy world, if only visually. So instead of seeing a filthy bum puking his guts out onto the garbage cluttered sidewalk as he leans against a filthy encrusted brick wall, tagged with vile shit I’ll instead see a unicorn projecting a rainbow against the backdrop of a magical grove.
That sounds an awful lot like Pyro from TF2
It’s like when they say something is idiot proof, then the universe delivers a bigger idiot.

What about a hunting crossbow? They might be easier to get, and are way cooler than a rifle.
rifle?
If that fails, heat seeking missiles
bow & arrow
Drone

Probably the same kind of tool general population would need to take down capitalism itself.
It’s like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.
It’s like the Titanic, it was doomed the moment someone called it unsinkable. No self-respecting universe would let that slide.
Fun fact: The “unsinkable” actually came from its sister Olympic, after it came out relatively unscathed from a collision with the Hawke (Wikipedia link)
Fun fact: Between the 3 ships of the class, Olympic was the only that survived to retirement. Britannic was sunk by a mine in WWI after less than a year in service.
