It’s like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.
No matter how clever you think you are, there is always someone more clever.
I used to think AR was a niche thing for business and kinda dumb for every day use but then I thought: You’d be able to block ads. Graffiti. Garbage. Just filter the world into a cartoon if you want. Now I fucking wish I had some AR device so I can literally live inside a fantasy world, if only visually. So instead of seeing a filthy bum puking his guts out onto the garbage cluttered sidewalk as he leans against a filthy encrusted brick wall, tagged with vile shit I’ll instead see a unicorn projecting a rainbow against the backdrop of a magical grove.
Now someone needs to make AR glasses with the sole purpose to detect and blur out ads
Those Braille reader screens will start injecting ads.
And these dumb fuck advertisers will advertise something like car insurance on there.
I always get these spam letters in the mail about how I am preapproved for car insurance. Like I don’t even have a drivers license, so their approval process is clearly not very thorough.
I remember someone got into such a billboard and replaced the ad with IKEA-style instructions on how to replace the ads in those billboards.
Oh my god that’s Melbourne! I know that bus stop!!
