Do People Actually Want to Wear a Headset All the Time?

    Google glass was my thought too. It was just way ahead of its time, but google absolutely had the right idea

    I think it needs to be a set of glasses and we need better battery tech before that can really happen. Solid state batteries will be needed since their energy density is so much higher. As a low vision user i can think of an immediate use as a magnification device. Actual magnifiers dont work well for me but software magnification does. Therefore i could magnify my surroundings to read signs, etc.

    For me its

    • The Martian, and Artemis by Andy Weir
    • Termination Shock by Neil Stephenson
    • 2001, 2010, 2061, 3001 Odyssey series by Arthur C Clarke
    • lots of David Brin
    • lots of Greg Bear
    • One Second After (series) by William Forstchen
    • The Wool Omnibus (series) by Hugh Howey
    • Beacon 23 by Hugh Howey
    • After Sundown by Linda Howard
    • Solar Flare by Larry Burkett
    • etc

    I really enjoy books with a solar flare componet due to my being a ham radio op. I also love apocolypse books of nearly any type. Just no zombies as they freak me out

  • Communities on multiple servers?

    They will likely be somewhat different and have different info. My way of doing it is to just follow all of them

    Is there a list of blocked instances somewhere? I was trying to interact with a thread from lemmygrad i found on lemmy.ml but could not get it to come up in search. This makes me assume its blocked

    What tweaks have improved your Lemmy experience?

    My biggest issue is i can sort post sort to new as default, but if i open a post comments are sorted as hot with no ability to change it in settings.

    Migration to new server successful!

    Working well so far. What caused the migration? Resource constraints? The DNS took a while but its all good now.

  • How Much Do Labor Costs Drive Inflation?
  • shortwavesurfer shortwavesurfer 1y ago 0%

    It is crazy to think that a loss of our moneys value is to be expected and normal. If we used a hard currency such as silver then "inflation" would not be a problem as govetnmyths could not print more at will and devalue the peoples holdings. Governmyth is totally to blame for poverty through taxes and inflation

    Hi, i am not canadian but chose here because i dont want to contribute to one server such as lemmy.ml getting to large. I have actually had this account for a while and am a frequent mastodon user but hadnt really kicked the tires much around here.
