So now employees will not only surveil employees but also physically punish them remotely if their gaze veers off screen?

What a time to be alive!

I think the main worry about losing access to email is not losing access to your historical archive of email messages, but rather your sudden inability to reset passwords and recover access to other accounts.

Not to mention the risk that someone else takes possession of said email accounts and domains, in which case they essentially own every account you have that's bound to that email.

> It leaves you with not having aphantasia!

That's what I always assumed from reading about it in the past, where it was mostly "I can't imagine things in my mind". Well, I can certainly imagine things.

Now, the guide in the top comment talks about actually seeing things. I don't. As in, really not at all, for any interpretation of "seeing" I can think of.

I wouldn't even describe it as fuzzy - it's just not an image at all, it's more abstract thought and abstract perception.

Hence my confusion.

> But one of the things I am trying to work out is whether my definition of "imagine" is different.

Yeah that's where I'm at as well. I can answer yes to that question but I'm not sure my answer means what GP might interpret from it.

> Sort of like picturing one part at a time, but perhaps more like remembering than picturing. I know the overall layout, but I don't know if I literally "see" it.

Similar here, though in my case I wouldn't necessarily call it "remembering". I can "picture" a completely made up house and it will "appear" similarly in my mind.

> there have been moments, usually when I'm close to falling asleep, where I have actually seen something vividly

Same, or during actual dreams.

> I remember thinking the illustration on the Wikipedia page might be a good way to think of it.

If you mean the one with the apple inside the heads, it doesn't help me at all. I can't relate to any of the pictures in it. :D
