    in this one picture, I see generations of so many individual great ideas coalescing into one fantastically bad idea (and stupidly comical consequence) that is so… bizarre that I can both simultaneously understand why nobody really saw it coming, and am in low-key disbelief that this is even real…

      of course it’s not, because every laptop and airpod has noise cancelling

      But as far as rage bait goes, top tier

      I mean, that’s a steno mask, and anyone who’s had issues with hand pain but wants to communicate via text has probably wished for something resembling this. The problem is that they’re obnoxiously expensive. (And they look ridiculous, but that’s its own issue.)

      When I’m in public, I wish people had these. I neither need nor want to listen to your phone conversations.

        Their price is so dumb, that thing shouldn’t cost that much

        Just like those accessibility tools that let you use control the mouse pointer using only your mouth etc etc, they have stupid prices when some aren’t even that complex
