gollark: Oh, and it's all a giant maze of interlocking abstraction layers which manage to somehow erase decades of Moore's law because someone wanted to ship an entire browser for their desktop app or something, and which nobody actually understands.

gollark: Even the lowest level hardware stuff is vulnerable to weird exotic side channels, there's unauditable proprietary code running lots of stuff, and even outside of that people just cannot seem to write consistently secure code.

gollark: Actual implanted cybernetics are somewhat worrying because I don't really trust computers at this point, especially higher-performance ones.

gollark: All the cool people™ would run BrainLinux or something, and occasionally be blinded by incomprehensible driver problems.

gollark: You don't need *that*, just some method of projecting onto glasses in decent resolution without horrible focus problems, probably some way to blot out background too, and some kind of gesture control system (specialized gloves or radar maybe).
