Signs your getting old?
I now need computer glasses and a daily pair of progressive lenses for when I am not in front of the computer...
Thoughts so far...
It feels like progressive lenses are some sort of scam by the optometry cartels to just sell bad quality lenses. They just make me feel like I am going blind when my line of sight falls out of the focus zones.
Probably need that 80s glasses strap too because I keep resting my new glasses on my head forgetting about them then bending over to grab something only to have the glasses fall off my head.
Instagram hotties are much sharper now though...
- i recently stared wearing glasses for close up stuff and now have a pair in every single situation I need them, because of course, they're never to hand if not.Nairn
- I have 3 pairs I swap around throughout the day depending on what I'm doing (from being in front of a screen to driving)... not a pair less than $650 :/PonyBoy
- Yes, progressive lenses are a scam.

- Sigh. I mean ... honestly.

https://i.imgflip.co…jonny_quest_lives - this is the unfortunate reality... the distortion zone is a lot worse once you own a pair...
https://i.imgur.com/…jonny_quest_lives - my first time getting glasses... optometrist recommends progressives for everyday use. maybe should have asked questionsjonny_quest_lives
- but the optometrist never mentions distortion zones when she pitched them... you unfortunately learn about the zones when your glasses arrivejonny_quest_lives
- and the assistant is fitting them attempting to to sugarcoat my dissatisfaction by telling me "they take some time getting used to"jonny_quest_lives
- "you need to move your head more" or "practice at home with them" so here i am practicing the ben franklin stare in my mid fortiesjonny_quest_lives
- It was a woman.
You have your answer right there.palimpsest - I wear glasses only in front of computers, miopia; if I need to check something in short, I get it off. For everything else, sports, etc. contacts ;)OBBTKN
- budget progressive lenses are crap. have you tried the zeiss progressive that are for screen-life?microkorg
- i have a standalone set of computer glasses which are fine... it's the daily out and about town progressives which are zeissjonny_quest_lives
- that sort of suck or i am adapting to... basically not darting my eyes around like i have my whole life seems to be the solutionjonny_quest_lives
- in other words moving my head like an owl: https://c.tenor.com/…jonny_quest_lives
- The price for prescription progressives suck shit. I've been using off the rack Foster Grants for a couple years. $35 every 4 mo.bezoar
- I get my prescription after my eye exam, then go to zennioptical.com. much cheaper there...or warby parker.Akagiyama

- Progressive lenses gave me the shits, so have x2 pairs of diff single lens. One for comp work and other for reading close.sab
- My second glasses are long distance but adjusted to see at a distance from my chair to my computer screen. Much better than progressive or office glassesGabriel

The gun one is a 5 color screen print. The other two were mixed media. They were a small run so I got lazy and used colored paper and the black is mylar sitting on 18x18" plywood.

Apple
What were they thinking? Maybe the new UI will turn out to be good once you use it but the way they're presenting it looks terrible.
- the aqua glass looks so cool on the demos, but this desaturated icon version is jut bad, I 100% search for apps by their colour._niko
- In motion it looks slick. Kinda bad messaging/advertisin... with how they're showing it in stillsinteliboy
- Ugly AF ... yet another sad desperate attempt by Apple to appear relevant. Where innovation goes to die.utopian
- Nah it's just there's not enough innovation to dish some out every year to justify the latest model they need to sell to keep the profits rolling.MrT
- pointless update is pointlesshans_glib

- My phone is 5 years old and works like new. I can't imagine what benefit there would be to spending upwards of $1000 to upgrade.CyBrainX
- lol, if you watch the video they posted where they talk about the design they seem to be American. What's the excuse now?yuekit
- the "acqua" ui looks disabled, IMOmaquito
- And the leadership of Apple saw this and apparently signed off on it.yuekit
- Horrible, already outdated.milfhunter
- looks like the ui died and became a ghostNutter
- "updates" are just the modern version of a mechanic cutting a hose to get u to bring ur car into the shop for repairs. Dumping apple = best updatecherub
- timeless fresh magic look...u can never go wrong with that claim...neverscared
- inteliboy1
- Not for professuonal use & work. I like the current flat look and would've appreciated some of the new transparency glass effects...NBQ00
- But there's just too much now and the corners are too rounded too. I'm sure I'll get used to it.NBQ00
- This is getting a hugely negative reaction on social media from people who are trying the developer preview. It's sad but Apple really seems to be flailing.yuekit
- when does apple not have negative reactions? no matter what they do it's greeted with whining and hateinteliboy
- Many times, for good reasons.grafician

- You getting your news from tabloids like The Sun? No wonder you're always clueless about everything, but whatever helps you cope.Milan
- looks like a laser of some kind. The after glow is superheated air/dust that gets turned to plasma. The report you hear is from the laser hitting the air.monNom
- https://en.wikipedia…)monNom
- I doubt it's a laser, too late, too quick (to do something), too visible. If anything, I imagine it came from the drone itself as part of the delivery package.Nairn
- No cunt likes the Sun, but video is video, and these are just a few of many from the last day or so. Whatever the impact, this is costing Russia a fortune.Nairn
- The speed is the key. Pulsed lasers get higher peak energy on target by shortening the laser pulse. The destructive force is a shockwave rather than heating.monNom

Made a lot of paper models recently. This is a new one, for a big Dutch brand.
I’ve been putting more energy into an international breakthrough lately, so who knows what the future might bring :)
