It’s a native feature of the device that allows its user to get enormous amounts of attention, in real life and subsequently online, by simply wearing it in public.

Sounds horrible. I guess I’m not someone who seeks attention at any cost like some people, it public is the last situation I’d use this thing in. I would feel like a complete dumbass wearing it at a coffee shop and waving my hands around.

It's the same problem google glass had. It can be the most information rich and user friendly device in the world but if you look like a dingus wearing it, it will never catch on.

What if I already look like a dingus?

[-] double_oh_walter@feddit.nu 7 points 8 months ago

Two dingi don’t make a right. Or something.

[-] vexikron@lemmy.zip 2 points 8 months ago

Dingi.

Pronounced ding eye? Dingii? Ding gee eye?

My brain hurts now.

But thats just a single dinghy.

If you pluralize that its either dinghies or dingii?

Meh, my autistic brain gets stuck on weird stupid shit like this.

Its like... If you have a donut, then a second donut, you have two donuts.

You can say two donut to be cutesy i guess?

Very hard for me to tell when being cutesy is appropriate.

If the root singular word is dingus, this makes sense.

If the root singular word is dinghy, as I guess I have always said, then it does not.

Well at least I partially understand my own confusion now, thanks!

Don't they cancel each other out?

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 8 months ago

Unfortunately they multiply instead of cancel

i times i is -1, though. Imagine that!

[-] darkecho@feddit.de 2 points 8 months ago

That's too complex for me.

[-] double_oh_walter@feddit.nu 3 points 8 months ago

Hmm. They might. Hadn’t thought of that.

This requires more research. You must buy one - for science! And, I guess, for “science “.

No, if you touch two dingii together you still have two dingii.

Two sexy, sexy dingii
