Totally agree. I'm paying for beer, not foamy air. And out in these parts, there are no glasses with measuring lines.
Actually sat down and built a spreadsheet to figure out how much a bar or restaurant profited based on how much foam they pour. The numbers are eye-opening.
I'll have to readjust the tables, though. Met friends at my favorite hangout last night. Overnight, they had bumped the price of a pint by $2 up to $10. May be time to find a new favorite hangout.
Judging by the downvotes, I didn't state my point well enough. Magic Leap took a LOT of money, got a lot of hype, and nearly went out of business multiple times.
But they were also the first ones to demonstrate and kick off overlaying data on top of real world, what we now call Augmented Reality. Their implementation was clunky and the device was expensive, but it showed people a glimpse of what was possible in a head-mounted, immersive form factor. 10 years later, Apple released the Vision Pro which used different tech, but did pretty much what ML1 was trying to do.
I think the Humane AI pin tried some interesting concepts, but is heading in the same direction. The idea of a small, wearable, AI device is interesting. Ten years from now, when you can run it all on-device and have a hands-free, GPT-8 level conversation with it with no cloud connection may well be a yawn.

Have you looked into the suid bit? You can set it on the file, then change the script owner to root and it runs in elevated mode: https://linuxhandbook.com/suid-sgid-sticky-bit/
