I think you'll find that a lot of people are arguing that Glass should be no more or less illegal than any other smartphone display; that its pseudo-HUD status does not give it an exemption.
The Right to Travel is not meant to be read as arbitrarily broad. It would not allow you to fly a nuclear ramjet over a populated area; on a less hyperbolic scale, the government is permitted to restrict you to driving safely.
The falsifiability criteria for the double helix, higgs model, and atomic picture of matter were not determined until decades after publication. By your reasoning, they should never have been published.
I tell you what, if you want to provide a list of evidence for the fact that gravity is attractive at all distances and that air is breathable, then you can make that argument. I'll see you when you're done. It's gonna be a long list.
It's financing, not funding. The US government, via the World Bank, provides a loan at an attractive interest rate to a foreign nation for specific projects, and makes a small return on the interest charged.
I wasn't aware that the World Bank's loans were hand-outs. Someone should write to all those countries that are paying out a sizeable fraction of their GDP in interest payments.
You would have to define "global positioning display" carefully. I suspect that most courts would conclude that multifunction devices do not fall under the exemption, or that the device would have to be demonstrably in that mode at the time of the incident for the exemption to apply.
I was always under the impression that arms races were one of those unfortunate systematic effects that arise spontaneously, and don't depend on ego on the part of either side. We certainly seem to see them in scenarios where human actors are not involved.
As problematic as Google Glass is, the term "glasshole" is one of the stupidest pejorative memes I've heard. I mean, John Gruber uses it. Do you want to be like John Gruber?
Glass's display provides an image like 25-inch screen at 8 feet of distance somewhere above and to the right of your eyeline. It's not a heads-up display. It's more like having an iPhone glued to the corner of the sun visor.
Apple is really strict about not letting people give out certain kinds of technical advice or speculation on their support forums, on the not-unreasonable basis that things posted there have Apple's tacit approval. When I hung out on Nokia's support boards it was similar.

"U won't believe how much it smells like cat pee."
Well obviously Apple patented human BO and Dell had to look elsewhere.
Seeing this on the front page is not exactly my proudest submission.

Probably not okay in California, though.
We also treat them as singulars, but we leave the "s" in the abbreviation.
Language is like DNA: sometimes it mutates by accident, and sometimes the mutation sticks because there's no selective disadvantage.
Don't be such a square.
For the same reason that you wouldn't drive with an opened bottle of whiskey on the passenger seat.
It's fine within certain constraints. It has a finite but nonzero impact upon your attention that must be evaluated.

Resolve that.

Military pilots also have a lot more experience using HUDs than anyone on the planet has using Google Glass.

I mean you can configure this stuff on your phone so that it only notifies you about stuff that actually merits a notification.
You're behind. "RTFT" (read the fine title) is the new RTFS. I wish I was joking.
...on the other hand, the Warranty information page would seem to be exactly the sort of thing Apple should not be deleting.

Ah, I'd always seen that reported as 16:9 and never confirmed it directly. Thanks.
