Bold statement from someone who has no idea who I am.

On laptop you have to tilt the screen towards you a lot more than usual and look at it just above the function keys. On desktop you have to stand up for the same perspective.

Get complimented, nerd!

Is perspective really considered an "illusion"? While this demonstrates perspective it at no point makes me see something that isn't real.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's an illusion because no one would ever really say that.

Illusions, Michael.

Is it not fair to say perspective can be used in illusions? Or how are you defining illusion?

That's an unhelpfully restrictive definition of illusion that is itself illusory. An illusion is also:

A sensation originated by some external object, but so modified as in any way to lead to an erroneous perception; as when the rolling of a wagon is mistaken for thunder.

The text is hidden or revealed through a change in perspective. That is the illusion.

i used to have a phone with the "charging hole" on the left side near the top. your tricks don't work on me.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

It's a good thing shit like snow crash doesn't exist because if it did we'd be trolling people to tilt their phone to look and making them alt + f4 life.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

You can write code like this by stretching a fat rubber band around a ruler, then writing on it. It’s only legible when stretched.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This is one where the visual impaired text should also reveal the joke

I've seen so many of these I have gained the ability to read them straight on. In this case it doesn't matter, but I always feel like I've got one over the meme creator when it says something like "You look dumb holding your phone like that"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well that's some toxic positivity

If you're at your computer and don't want to break a monitor trying to tilt it, just smoosh it vertically in MS paint or Apple iSomething to edit images. Edit: sorry what am I thinking - GIMP obviously

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Awww thanks <333

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What exactly is closing one eye suppose to do?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Helps clear up the text, as you won't have two slightly different perspectives trying to read an already straining message
