And this is great now for battery life. Fair enough.>> And other than that, it's really no different than my 16. >> And yet, it's the gadget of the year. We are underestimating how going from ...

I think Google Glass is a good name because they are not glasses. That's the thing. It's glass the one in front of your right eye.[laughter] >> It is misleading and >> Okay, but here here's the question. Is this a goodlook. No.>> Absolutely. >> Absolutely not. No.[laughter] >> Okay, that's good. So, no, we litigated that already. >> I love [laughter] those.So, [snorts] but you you bring up a good point because Google was like desperate >> to make these things not nerdy gadgets. Like went way out of its way ...

The number one problem with Google Glass was the people who wore Google Glass, >> also known as glass holes. >> Yeah. >> And in February of 2014, >> Google is forced to post a set of dos and don'ts >> for >> And if you'll if you'll allow me to, I would just like to read a few of them to you.>> Please. >> Do ask for permission. Standing alone in the corner of a room staring at people while recording them through glass is not going to win you any friends.Here's a don't. Don't glass out. Glass was built for sh ...

I I think people talk a lot about how machines are becoming more humanlike, but we don't talk enough about how humans are becoming machine-like. And I think that's even more problematic. Are we going to just work for machines and like optimize and try to, you know, feed the algorithm.And and so I would say that if we zoom out pre-industrial revolution, we lived in a world where our kind of physical strength was everything. Then we kind of moved to a world where our mental strength was everything our intelli ...

Google didn't invent the concept of smart glasses, but it was one of the first companies to actually put them on people's faces. It was a revolution, and also a problem: Google made face computers extremely uncool, and its early user base was so off-putting they became collectively known as “Glassholes.” The Verge’s Victoria Song and Waveform’s David Imel break down why Glass failed — despite being shockingly right about the future of technology. #VersionHistory #GoogleGlass #Technology 0:00 Introduction: T ...

Our relationship with technology could use a reset. We all spend all of our time just staring down at screens. But what if instead we could stare kind of up and to the right at screens.That's what Google thinks might be the answer. And it's built a product called Glass that puts a screen on your face that might just change everything. From the Verge of Ox Media, this is Version History, a show about the best and worst and strangest and most important products in tech history.I'm David Pierce and on this epi ...

I'm very upset with you. I bought a Samsung Frame TV on Black Friday because it was on sale. This TV is both like exactly correct and like perfectly does the one job that I hired it to do, which is mostly not look like a television.>> It's awful. The software is bad. Hour and a half to load every single time I want to turn it on.The power button does a different thing every time you press it. This is it's it is simultaneously like the best idea about TVs and the worst TV that I have used in a very long time ...

Samsung has announced its first doublefolding phone, the Galaxy Z Trifold. They've been teasing it for almost a year, and it's finally launching in Korea in just a couple of weeks. There's really only one other company making a trifold phone, so this is a huge deal.We haven't been able to use it yet, but here's what we know so far. It has a 10in screen on the inside, and the two outer panels fold in over each other, kind of like if you were folding a letter. This is a change from how Huawei does things with ...

Today, I'm toying with the O Snap Mcon, the Switchblade gamepad for your pocket. Remember sliding keyboard phones. This sucker is spring-loaded.You press this button to launch it, and I'm surprised how good the controls feel underneath. Real TMR joysticks with substantial throw, nice clicky face buttons, Game Boy Advance SP style D-pad. I could even see myself getting used to these mini hall effect triggers, and teensy bumpers.The foldout grips really help, too. Sadly, it's way too thick to fit my jeans wit ...

I feel like the margin between this is a great set top box and the software that's built into my Samsung TV from seven years ago like sucks hardcore. But it's fine. Like no no it plays Netflix. It plays >> in conscience.I cannot let you say that on this podcast. [laughter] No. >> Okay.>> My smart TV is fine goes against the official stance of >> You know what. I am writing that up. I'm going to write 800 words about how my smart TV is.>> Listen, Allison, it hurts me. >> Allison, you're supposed to have stan ...
