Man, I can’t stand this guy. He thinks dressing like a healing guru makes him any different than the rest of his peers. No one should give a shit about what he thinks anymore.
I’m from the North East so our proprietary eponym for them is “munchkins”
Veedem@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•It Might Be Time to Admit the Great VR Experiment Has FailedEnglish142·4 months agoI’ve always said that AR was the real future. Technology that isolates people from others in the same room as them always seems to fail.

Because it’s not good at a single thing and yet tries to do everything. It’s slow, cumbersome, and poorly laid out in a way that discourages a productive workflow.
Microsoft rushed the hell out of it to ride that Zoom covid wave and never bothered to go back and figure out why not a single person you’ve ever met actually doesn’t mind it (nevermind likes it).

Veedem@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Meta’s AI Profiles Are Already Polluting Instagram and Facebook With SlopEnglish36·6 months agoIt feels like Zuckerberg is out of ideas and just chases the trends to stay relevant. He was all in on the “metaverse” until he wasn’t because the concept disappeared. Now, he’s all in on AI because everyone else is. Even the quest, before it became the face of the metaverse, was him chasing another big idea from someone else.
He and the company haven’t had original ideas in a very long time. Even the smaller ones, like Stories and Reels, are just ideas copied from someone else.

I don’t think you understand how determined the buyers are once they’ve been convinced by the scammer. I used to work for a major retailer that had signs at the register AND messages that the customer had to accept on the signature pad confirming they didn’t believe they were being scammed before going through with the purchase.
Additionally, my team was instructed to call me over any time they had a customer who they felt was being scammed to try to talk to them. Sometimes, I was successful, but other times I wasn’t. There is still one guy who goes in weekly to buy $500 of various gift cards for his overseas “girlfriend” on WhatsApp. I tried talking to him multiple times and he became increasingly angry at the conversation. I just had to accept I couldn’t help him.

It was a few years ago, so maybe I messed up the details along the way or the local branch manager was just being a dick to prevent a lost membership.
