    Honestly, I don’t want to manage a battery. I would maybe be okay with it if I could recharge it wirelessly (set it on one of those wireless phone chargers or whatever), but that’s a bit outside DIY ATM.

    But yeah, spending $100+ on glasses just to piss off some security guards is a bit steep. I’m at a point where I can absolutely afford it for the lulz, but that’s a pretty big ask for the type of person who would be racially profiled away from the store. I wish I could just grab any pair of glasses ($10 or whatever) and spray on some kind of coating to get IR reflectivity. Maybe that exists, I just don’t know enough about it.

      not the security guards. they don’t care about the, and this has nothing to do with security.

      It’s about breaking the automated tracking system.
