I like this idea, but they are announcing cheapish sunglasses for sale during the height of sunny summer with an estimated ship date of late November. That seems like a slight miscalculation.

EDIT: I'm an idiot, and other places exist. Thank you multiple commenters for pointing out the flaw in my thought here!

The entire Southern Hemisphere has gone missing and nobody told me?!

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Look, as a southern hemispherian, given everything that's going on right now in the northern hemisphere, I'd be pretty fine with going missing TBH.

We already have better sunglasses, we don't need meme glasses.

[–] warm@kbin.earth 2 points 1 week ago

It's good for awareness, that's the point. Not to actually make a rival pair of glasses. It advertises DuckDuckGo, privacy in general and brings attention to the problems of glasses with cameras in.

We don't need "smart"-glasses.

Hopefully they're designed to last more than one season
