People aren't a fan of those existing either, but not much you can do about it. At least, you can assume that it's only a tiny fraction of people who own these devices, let alone carry them around, ready to go.
With these glasses, more people will own them and will have them ready to go, on their nose.

I have a SHIFT6mq and am quite content with it. Owned a FairPhone 3 before that and I much prefer the build quality of the SHIFTphone.

Still expensive as all balls, though.

It's, for example, quite important for folks handling internal documents in a company. You get those documents served via the company's intranet, so not publicly accessible. And if you click that translate-button with other translators, that internal document is published into the internet, which is a breach of confidentiality, or even a breach of contract, if you're handling supplier documents.

If your company is big enough, it may have a self-hosted translation service that you can use, but for everyone else, foreign language documents were a bit of a problem so far.

My French isn't the yellow from the egg, so that was quite a puzzle...

Recently, I learned of the concept of "Linux capabilities". And yeah, as much as I enjoy reading up on these things, the whole time I was thinking, if something's fucky with these capabilities, I'll never remember to check them...

Never heard of those before, I don't think. Although, a colleague recently shared pictures of a gym around here, which looks somewhat similar. Yeah, I might have to check out, if they have a more varied climbing offering.

Alright, my guy, thanks for the advice. I don't know why we're being so aggressive to each other. I don't think, there's that many climbing gyms around here and what I've seen of the one we do have, it looked like grips are exclusively for children, but I guess, I should inform myself more.

Bro, if you're gonna mock me, you shouldn't assume that I actually visited a gym. Obviously, I did not. I was speaking figuratively.

I've encountered these rock climbing walls on excursions and such, so I know that I hate them, and I know that climbing gyms are full of them.

All I'm saying is that if they had tree-like climbing opportunities or at least rock-climbing walls with rocks you can actually grip, then that could get me to actually visit a gym.
I'm just disappointed that climbing is the only sport I really enjoy and even the fucking climbing gym still isn't for me.

Well, in my particular case, I wouldn't go for the workout. I just find the rock-type climbing frustrating and relatively boring, while I find the tree-type climbing fun. So, even if I can only manage 1 minute of tree-type climbing at a time, that would be a sport, I'd actually enjoy doing.

I always hated that. I grew up with a big hazelnut bush/tree next to our house, where it was usually more useful to pull yourself up than to try to find good footing.

And then I think, I've been climbing my whole life, I'll visit a climbing gym, and then they're like, oh no, not that kind of climbing. That would be using muscles, which is famously unpopular in gyms.

Trying to do this on a mobile phone screen is the worst. Either you tap repeatedly, but then you just know you're gonna mistap when the frame finally appears. Or you try to time it just right, and then precisely in that moment, those stupid UI controls fade out.

You shouldn't assume the contents of the GDPR based on what most companies are doing. It's not legally consent, if it was not given freely. So, no dark patterns, no coercion, no inaccurate descriptions, nothing. You need to inform the user as accurately as possible and ensure that they choose what suits their interest. Then it's consent.
