Forest!@Chrishallbeck ... I've never thought of this. Holy cow. XD
Oblomov@Chrishallbeck WTF this actually works?
Théotime@Chrishallbeck @oblomov I see blurry from afar (am I short-sighted? surprisingly it can be something else), and in class I can't read what's on the whiteboard if I forget my glasses (which happens a lot)
A friend of mine asked me why I haven't been taking pictures of the board just so I could read and I was surprised I didn't think of this sooner

shyduroff@Theotime812 @oblomov @Chrishallbeck Correct, "near sighted" / myopic. Short focal distances are in-focus, longer aren't.
🪨@Chrishallbeck @oblomov Only for short-sighted people though. My far-sightedness would actually make it worse 
@Varpie Farsighted people wouldn’t need glasses to find their glasses.
Prayag@Chrishallbeck Now THAT'S clever! 🧠🧠🧠
I remember how, in classes where I sat quite far back and had trouble seeing the teacher's tiny writing or skinny marker marks, I'd attempt to use my phone's camera to actually see what was on the board 🔍🔍🔍📱❓
I am impressed, though, that his phone is right there and yet he didn't set an alarm on it.
Mans R@prayag_suthar @Chrishallbeck I once missed a flight because the clock on the phone on which I'd set an alarm stopped. The phone worked, the clock was just stopped at one minute before the alarm time.
Die beste Idiot@prayag_suthar @Chrishallbeck not quite as good as a phone in the comic's but i personally use a piece of paper with a small throughhole to see with in those situations, works quite well
Abazigal@prayag_suthar I have had situations where I clearly set an alarm on my phone and it didn’t go off in the morning. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
CavyherdI'm convinced that 90% of innovation is somebody finally noticing that if you take this thing you've had forever and add it to that thing you've had for years, you an suddenly do this new thing that is obvious—once it has occurred to you.... 😂
Connor Cadellin@Chrishallbeck this really works!
Ertain@Chrishallbeck We're living in the future. I think.
Officially Tara 🕷️

jesterchen42@Chrishallbeck I thought I was the only one still thinking of Inspector Gadget. ^^
Shirley Eugest@Chrishallbeck Like we could see to find our phone.
I do this to see menus.
