Uhm... I recall Google tried this glasses thingy a few years ago and it flopped.

Ah, I see Google is already trying to memoryhole Google Glass. Typical.

Who needs or even wants this? Meta is trying to showcase this and no one is listening, Google had their shot a little over 10 years ago, it wasn't just that the tech was not ready, it was just a pointless product with no market.

We're going in circles coming up with gimmicks when the most useful and desired stuff gets ignored by big companies, It's stupid.
