What does 4-ch think of the new Apple scuba goggles? Some claim the istrain will revolutionize the tech world the way the smartphone did, others think it's like those glasses google made. If it does become the next big thing, how will it effect the internet? would it become more fucked up? Will people become even colder and deatched from each other because their always hooked into social media like a heroin addict with a syringe permanently shoved up their ass. \n\n Personally, I'm gonna say nay. It reminds me of the virtual boy, except less ugly and cumbersome and with the kind of insane price you'd expect from Apple. Just seems like a big vomit inducing motion sickness simulator. But knowing derranged Apple fans, they'll probably mortgage their homes and sell a kidney to get it anyway. \n\n

It's definitely a step forward in terms of technology. It's something I'd expect from apple. A product designed to use Apple hardware, apple APIs and software, and no 3rd party support (good luck hooking this up to steam without massive hax). There's also some of the usual apple fuckery like that 2 hour battery you strap to your balls. \n\n The features will eventually diffuse into better and cheaper technology that's actually supported by people who matter. apple will have their $3500 walled garden of shit. \n\n

What would compel anyone to want this? It’s a smartphone you can wear on your head. Unless you fap with both hands, it’s not worth it. \n\n

Brain damage. Which comes with the territory of being an apple cultist. \n\n

Are they not just VR goggles by Apple? I don't know or care much about them, I just thought that's what they were when I saw them for the first time. From the picture I saw, I just thought their big innovation that set them above other VR goggles is you could see through them \n\n

I can’t wait to see videos of apple cultists walking through windows or causing car crashes because the screen is now literally glued to their face. It’s like Tesla’s auto drive or whatever, except nobody’s ever going to wake up to the fact that taping a smartphone to your head is fundamentally a bad idea. \n\n

I want to see some glassholes showing exactly who they are. \n\n

>>12 \n\n It's a shame because the concept was kind of cool to me. It was just very limited. If instead I could open up a web browser or an app on the glasses I'm currently wearing right now, that would be fucking neat. Like imagine if I was writing this on my glasses? I know technology wouldn't allow that because while Apple Vision can functionally do this, it relies on a lot of hardware. But imagining my glasses being able to perform certain functions what my phone can currently do as well as offer me an AR experience would be awesome. I'd feel like some sort of cyberpunk being able to sit on the train to work and scroll through my Twitter timeline and shit. \n\n

There's something comforting in knowing that these have to bait, since the kind of person who's a hardcore Apple elitist would never venture deeper into the internet than the Apple frontpage or Facebook. \n\n I don't get the point of the goggles. VR is already a sort of niche tech, since it's so inaccessible and limited in utilization. Apple making a VR set that's even less accessible, thansk to their shitass software wall garden policy is just mindboggling. It's a neat showcase of hardware design and algorithms, I guess, but I can't imagine a practical utility for it outside some really hardcore VRChat enthusiasts. \n\n
