Agreed, but they have some amazing hacks using older architectures. They do produce motherboards and other components though so it’s still surprising they are using a dell.

The amount of lead exposure during your life would also contribute to this I feel, we are fucked until money gets out of politics as it seems it’s currently a DEI for older/damaged folk. Why do people have to have a fitness test to go and die but our people in charge don’t even have to have a physical in most cases.

Aussie here, I don’t think that this is a bad move at all. The meta glasses are at a price point that makes them rarely seen in the wild, however Kmart (yes it still exists here, but different owners) has recently had a sale of $20 “recording glasses” that can easily have their recording LED turned off and with a few modifications you wouldn’t even know they had a camera.

I can understand them doing this in government facilities, as some won’t even allow you to have your phone in certain spaces.

I do think with tigher guardrails (detection of environments, like if a set of meta glasses enter a restroom or what looks like a restroom it should disable recording entirely.) it could be allowed but we really don’t need to encourage kids that secret recordings are ok.
