so they are ending sales under the "Explorer" whatever and say that they might relaunch as an independent unit but i'm pretty sure that's code for "this was a stupid idea, we are idiots for thinking it up, but lol owned gullible idiots who actually thought this wasn't stupid"

i still have no idea what it actually does or what it's for but for a thousand-odd bucks i'm gonna assume it makes ladies appear nude.

it does the same stuff your phone can do except it has a much shorter battery life and it makes strangers want to punch you

Everyone I've seen wearing Google glass out in public always had some sort of Libertarian themed shirt on as well. Perhaps a correlation?

Google glass barely augments reality even. Or should i said it didnt.

Like if you have a smart phone then you can do way more augmented reality type stuff that way without looking like such an idiotic goon

When it first started to be talked about, I assumed it was going to be a drat computer monitor on your face. Once I found out it was just an overlay I was really dissapointed.

When are you going to be able to strap monitor's to your face again? occulus was bought by facebook so I don't see that going anywhere either.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.


They are moving it into a new wearables division along with Google rear end, a sensor to monitor the consistency of your poo poo to give you early warnings of colon cancer.
