"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

No I wouldn't consider these as viable everyday wear, but given how badly nearsighted I am, they still give me much better focus than my natural vision.

I got 2 pairs of these delivered today for only $7.16 total ๐Ÿ‘

A little unusual, put it that way. Trying to look at and type on my tablet screen shows that I sorta see 2 of everything, and not in the drunken eyes can't converge way.

But for what it is and what they're worth, they're a damn fine backup emergency option, they definitely improve my natural bad nearsighted focus ๐Ÿ‘

I can already confidently say that whatever you do, do not drive with them.

I suppose outside works best? Mind sharing which ones you got? Thanks for sharing!!

And yeah I'd say outside in the day is best, but do not drive while wearing them, it is a little brainfuckery weird to look through, but as an emergency backup for nearsightedness they definitely help.

I just looked up pinhole glasses on eBay, they're almost all basically the same and rather cheap, the only differences I spotted were in the frame shape/style, so I got the sleeker slimmer looking ones.
