Hey! I've used the pen name Manuel De Usario plenty of times.

Meta — the same company that declared in 2021 that by now you’d be living in the “metaverse” — sold a few million camera glasses for pervs and, all of a sudden, the next future envisioned by Mark Zuckerberg’s unhinged mind is one where we all walk around wearing camera glasses powered by “artificial intelligence.”

Yes, Silicon Valley CEOs believe the best way to curb screen addiction at 20 cm from your face is to strap screens 20 mm from your eyes.

Silicon Valley operates like an insular small town where trends spread fast and nobody wants to be left behind. The difference is that there, any “trend” means incinerating billions of dollars and threats to humanity drawn from dystopian futures that five or six unimaginative guys read about as kids, misunderstood, and never bothered to revisit.

Many of these misguided ideas crash against cultural reality. Even when the technical challenges are solved by the best engineers alive, the hard part is convincing ordinary people to spend hours every day with a virtual reality headset strapped to their faces, for example.

That's right! Those of us needing vision correction have spent a fortune on contact lenses, eye surgery (eventually, everyone gets it for cataracts), carrot juice, supplements, and have been called FOUR-EYES so much that we hate glasses. And these boneheaded geeks think we and the people blessed with perfect vision want to look LIKE SPACE ALIENS IN A 1920'S COMIC BOOK?

They need corporate reserved parking lots IN THE MENTAL HEALTH FACILITY.

Apologies to mental health patients who aren't CEO's.

Glassholes, indeed.
