Interesting tech, but the item is completely without any attractive style. Look up "army birth control glasses"

(Sorry about the google search link. Apple and Google go out of their way to hide the url when doing searches on Google from mobile Safari.)

This is what no one else can seem to understand. The iPad was created in Apple's labs before the iPhone. But Jobs and other staff made the decision to wait several years to launch the phone until the tech caught up to the ambition. They had a certain ascetic they wanted in addition to the hardware and it required time.

In this case, it looks like opposite. The tech is finally getting there, but the design team has no sense of making a daily wear product that people should reasonably want to wear. If I imagine a large population of people wearing these daily, it's going to look like middle and high school students from the 70s and 80s in yearbook photos.

What's awful is that I'm one of the most fashion ignorant people I know. I wear the same type of shirts and shoes because they're comfortable not stylish. And my glasses are as minimal frame as possible because I don't want a large mass of matter sitting on my face. Even that being said, this product just reminds me of my buddy's army photo of him wearing the Army issued glasses. Not good.

What? It's only 2 clicks away. You can click the copy button after hitting the share button. /s

Yup. I can go to any other of billions of domains in the world and just see the url, but because Google and Apple have a special compensatory friendship we can't do that.

I use Kagi so I don’t get the search terms in my address bar, I get the full url like you would any other site, and I find it very annoying. Well, I did, I’m used to it now but it is definitely a step backwards imo.

		To me, combining the search bar into the url/location bar was the step backwards. i'm not a mobile first user, so it just makes no sense to me. there are many times i've wanted to just use the url for quicker navigation with things like pagination and other forms of updating the url to the page I want rather than clicking < or > type buttons. there are plenty of other types of non-hacking url updating directly that the hiding of the url is annoying
