      Would you daily wear them if they were giving this for free at an event?

      People is paying this kind of money to do an operation to remove glasses, then they introduce the “master of glasses”, that weigh like 20 glasses

        Depends on the software part. If there will be freedom of compiling\installing arbitrary software then yes. I’m sure in this case it would be full of very interesting things in no time. But if it would be “fenced” like META does with their VR headsets, then those glasses would be almost useless.

      No, people still like a lot of things that they can’t afford. People hate these things because they are a privacy nightmare with minimal practical application.

        People do not hate glasses. All that hatred exists only in small hysteria bubble. Put a $100 price on them and in a few days half of people would use them.

        Not true, lot’s of people can easily afford these.
        And a shitload of people can if they really want them.
        The rest can pay over multiple years, in easy to afford monthly payments. /s
        Meaning the people that can’t really afford them, can buy them anyway and pay twice the price with interest.
