    Meta Glasses Banned at ComicCon After "Secret Filming"

    Sure, there are expectations of privacy. That's not really a technical difference - if someone wants to record without the consent of another it makes little practical difference whether they are recording someone in the street, in the shower, or through the crack in their bedroom curtains. The...

    Meta Glasses Banned at ComicCon After "Secret Filming"

    True, but at least someone who isn't holding a phone at all probably isn't recording with a phone. Someone wearing a pair of glasses might be wearing regular glasses, they might be wearing something that helps them identify things, they might be recording. This thing with Comic-con is really...

    The old one probably would last forever but the main body of it is entirely glass, and it looks like the glass isn't very thick. It has one of the antique locks in it, which means a chunk of wood is chiseled out to house the lock. I upgraded the security on the storm door outside it when I...

    Meta Glasses Banned at ComicCon After "Secret Filming"

    It seems like a small piece of tape would cover over a light. I can't say I study the glasses of people I see in any detail.

    We had a big storm this morning. We had a door replaced and I was rather dismayed to find that I wasn't strong enough to lift the door that came out unaided. I was able to "walk" it from one corner to the other but didn't expect to find that I just couldn't get the whole thing off the ground at...

    At least if someone is using a phone to record it's usually pretty easy to see what they are doing. Someone wearing glasses that are recording is a much more covert thing than someone holding a phone up.

    Staycations?

    I guess a lot depends on what counts as a staycation. Sometimes we'll take a long distance trip, sometimes a shorter distance trip, sometimes we'll take trip for 2-3 days that's within 2-3 hours drive. Outside of something like a weather emergency I typically wouldn't plan to stay overnight if...

    Another gentle run today. My watch clocked it as a tempo level run but part way through my heart rate monitor latched on to my running cadence. I know that's happening when I'm not feeling any particular stress, finding the run nice and easy but my heart rate is shown as 170. If I push my heart...

    My wife and I went for a hike in the woods. We took a route with rolling hills rather than a blast straight up the side of the mountain, but there were a few fairly long hills in it. All in all it was a little over six miles. There were a few trees down which made following narrower trails...

    Today the youngest granddaughters decided to stay home with big sister, so I went for a walk in the woods. A little under 8 miles up and over the mountain to my vista. It was good to get out into the fresh air, I needed a hike more than I needed a run today.

    Do you think it's possible to love two people at once?

    Throughout the Old Testament we see Godly men with multiple wives. I don't see any reason why it can't be done. Where having multiple wives is permitted I don't see how it would count as cheating to have two or more wives.

    It's much cooler here. I think we're watching our granddaughters again today so I don't know what we'll end up doing. There's a chance they'll want to stay with their big sister (she's 16, so old enough to watch them but also young enough to not always want to watch them). If they do we might go...

    God is not around?

    It's sometimes easy to see why people adopt variations on the theme that there is some kind of creator god, but a creator god who pretty much created stuff and then left it alone. Years ago a friend of mine likened it to the watch I was wearing - it had a creator in a factory somewhere who...

    What would you change about your church?

    I'd completely remove the drivel from the music rotation. It doesn't happen very often but every once in a while one of the music leaders picks songs from toxic sources like Bethel.

    I went for a walk yesterday morning. My wife and I were watching our grandchildren for the afternoon and into the evening, so I wanted to get some exercise in before we picked them up. Wrangling the girls is sometimes exercise in itself, although the weather wasn't great so running around...

    Possibly, as long as it doesn't mean wading through 46 pages of terms and conditions. Today was sunny and not too hot so I went for a run. Not breaking any speed records, today was about keeping a reasonable pace and getting the miles in. Along the way I passed a house where a guy was cutting...

    Pictures are tricky because if I take them on my phone they're too big to upload, and resizing them means fussing with transferring them from phone to laptop.
