Unbiquiti FrontRow

WHY. WHY do web devs keep _insisting_ on taking over my scroll wheel? I don&#x27;t want things to fly around on screen, and I certainly don&#x27;t want to be rocketed halfway down the page if I so much as _nudge_ the scroll wheel on my mouse.<p>This might be a cool product, but the behaviors on that page are _extremely_ irritating.

I&#x27;m not sure why this is on the front page now - this isn&#x27;t new, I bought mine 4 years ago, I believe.<p>It&#x27;s a fun little toy but as far as I know it is abandoned, and the app to get the content off the device is quite unreliable.<p>Ubiquiti reused the case of it for the &quot;UniFi Access Reader Pro&quot; - an NFC&#x2F;bluetooth reader for physical security purposes.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.ui.com&#x2F;collections&#x2F;unifi-door-access&#x2F;products&#x2F;unifi-access-reader-pro" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.ui.com&#x2F;collections&#x2F;unifi-door-access&#x2F;products&#x2F;...</a>

Feels like a speedbump on the way to AR glasses, similar to a go pro with live upload ability today?<p>Makes me think of this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Flip_Video" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Flip_Video</a><p>A product that could only exist in-between a transition and then quickly becomes irrelevant.<p>I&#x27;m looking forward to AR glasses with a camera - lots of applications. Even just basic glasses cam would be nice, during covid I&#x27;ve wanted it to be able to walk people through things remotely and more easily see what they&#x27;re seeing.

This is the first thing that came to my mind: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Front_Row_(software)" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Front_Row_(software)</a><p>For $400, I&#x27;ll get myself some Spectacles from Snap. I&#x27;m already getting a headache by imagining the video shake from FrontRow&#x27;s camera.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.spectacles.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.spectacles.com&#x2F;</a>

It looks to me like they repurposed all the ones they did not sell into their door access line.

Hmhrhmm. Reminds me a little bit of the &quot;Glassholes&quot; from about a decade ago? The always recording anything people? First with selfmade equipment, then via google glasses?

I watched this and I keep thinking to myself what this does that a decent smartphone (or GoPro) can&#x27;t.<p>Then I saw the price and asked who would pay that.

Since this is just a lanyard, how do you prevent it from randomly flipping to the other side?
