617: An Incredibly Dangerous App

I was with all of your summary until that very last line. So, um, let me reiterate that for me, and maybe it's because my eyes are not great. And I know I've said this a thousand times, but just one more time to set the stage. I have a weird eye disease called keratoconus. That means I wear hard contact lenses.

Um, it's actually been said on Apple's documentation that you shouldn't wear hard contact lenses with vision pro probably won't work. I've never had a problem with that. Um, my, my, my vision is actually pretty good with, with,

my contact lens is in i i'm like 20 30 or something like that i forget what i am but it's actually not bad but without my contacts i'm even more blind than john and that's saying something so um i think it is possible it is certainly possible if not probable that maybe some visual wonkiness that is really a shortcoming of the vision pro is actually my own eyes I don't know.

This is the only eyes I've got, so I can't tell you one way or the other. But whatever the case may be, be it because of the Vision Pro, be it because of my eyes or whatever, I don't find it to be that off-putting. I don't really get the motion blur. Occasionally, I find it's a little difficult to focus, but it usually goes away very, very quickly.

That might have to do with maybe my eyes settling down and the foveated rendering calming down. I'm not sure. But generally speaking, I find this works really well. And so this morning I had the occasion to go to a local library and I needed to be there to return something. And I figured, well, I'm just going to chill and work for a little bit.

And so I am enough of that guy to use the Vision Pro at the library, but I'm not enough of that guy to do it in the middle of like all the other people working at the library. So I, I want to say rented, I reserved a study room at one of the local libraries.

And I sent this picture to Marco and I forget exactly what you said, but you said something along the lines of, holy crap, could you not have found a bigger place to work because it is effectively a closet. And that's true. But I sat myself in this little study room. And I put on my vision pro and I looked like a damned fool, but thankfully I wasn't in the middle of everyone.

And I was using the vision pro and I was using Mac virtual display. And I agree that the ultra wide, while incredibly novel is generally speaking just too much, especially since like the menu bar runs the entire width of the display. You know, if you think about the way it is on my desktop display,

On my desktop at home, or my laptop desktop at home, I have three different displays, so they each get a menu bar, and I can use the dock on any of them, right? And it'll be centered, the dock will be centered at the bottom of each individual display, and the menu bar is effectively repeated across each of these three displays.

on the ultra wide it's just one freaking huge display that like you said earlier something like 90 or 120 degrees of your vision so if you need to find the menu bar you got to crane your turn your head all the way to the left to go find it and i don't mean to imply that it's a burden but it's it's striking right um i think the ultra wide is a bit too much but the wide is incredible and
