If we're talking passwords, that's a no. If we're talking enough personal data that you could use it for spear phishing, identity theft or targetted malvertising, that's a no.

Honestly, no matter how innocous the information you want is, I would be extremely suspicious why you'd want it. And I'm certainly not turning off my ad blocker either.

I wish this kind of disclaimer would have been in my physics book in school. Big reason why I didn't pursue an academic career in physics is because all the quantum stuff sounded like a religion, trying to convince itself that superpositions are real and you can't measure things, because you just can't.

Many years later I know that there's explanations for these things and that some of the illogical things I've been told were not nearly as certain or just flatout wrong. Because yeah, we're still pushing the boundaries of our understanding outwards...

I guess, the real question is: Could we be using (simplistic) LLMs on a phone for predictive text?

There's some LLMs that can be run offline and which maybe wouldn't use enormous amounts of battery. But I don't know how good the quality of those is...

You're in the No Stupid Questions community. Think about rule 7 in particular.

Well, mustard seeds are at least entertaining. They just jump out of your pot, like a tiny firework.

It's a little less entertaining when you still find the fuckers in your kitchen several months after the experiment, though...

Yeah, I do also think, it could be built today. But I mainly just don't expect such glasses to have enough mass market appeal that it would actually be available by 2030...

I think, it's only in the free version of Spotify. So, if you're paying for Spotify Premium, you wouldn't have that problem.

But I mean, I'm obviously completely out of the Spotify loop, so definitely take that one with a grain of salt...

I definitely also think moving around is the way to go, but in regards to feeling uncomfortable when sitting straight, it helped me to do stretches.

I'm guessing, if you're always kind of 'curled' up, the sinews and muscles and such at the front of your body contract. So, if you then go into the straight position once in a blue moon, everything at the front of your body has to be stretched further than it usually would be, which is uncomfortable.

Well, and if you give it the ol' morning stretch, those sinews and such will be stretched beyond the normal straight sitting position, so that the normal straight sitting position is within the comfortable range...

Using such glasses? I realized, I didn't explicitly say that in the comment you replied to...

Prepares you for the real thing...

I guess, why my interpretation is different, is because I'm a developer as well. And to us, modding can be more fun than actually playing a game.

So, if you assume the game will be good, you'll probably just dive into the modding right away. Especially if you want to ride along the initial hype wave, so that your mods are immediately appreciated by lots of players.

If you do then start playing the game and notice that it doesn't match your expectations, even if that were an entirely personal problem, that just robs you of your motivation to continue with the modding.

And I guess, that is really what the guy is pissed about. That he wasted time, because the marketing evoked wrong expectations in him.

Personally, I would consider myself wiser than that, because I've been burned by Bethesda's marketing beforehand (Skyrim), but I'm certainly not wishing that kind of wisdom onto other people.
