Re: Possibly Rethinking my Hatred of Augmented Reality
Augmented reality seems to be a very odd thing to hate.

Just (kind of) joking. My Luddite roots are showing. I don't necessarily like the current technology trends, but I can't do anything about them. And some of the stuff is really cool.Jeemie wrote:Augmented reality seems to be a very odd thing to hate.
OTOH, my true hatred/trepidation (or whatever) is reserved for the self-driving car/truck trend. Gol' dang people that probably don't even like to drive are going to wreck it for those of us that do.
The autonomous car crap is the only thing that has made me say (and think)-I am glad that I am 50, so that I will be able to live most of my life before the total onset of autonomous vehicles.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Looks like our Jr. High has one of the augmented reality sandboxes. One of the two in the Houston area. One at Hess Corporation, and one at Arnold Jr. High, the Jr. High all my kids went to, and the one my wife worked at in the counselor's office before she moved to her 5th grade teaching position.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

This does look way cool. I'm going to have to check it out at the Science Museum in Raleigh.
