    THE LINES OF SIGHT CONVERGE ON A SINGLE FOCAL POINT AND ARE THEREFORE NOT PARALLEL!

    Fuck! I’m that guy again.

      Also the fact that there’s no parallax between the photos

      Even worse you forgot people have a dominant eye, it’s the one your “balanced” viewpoint chooses as center

    For this to be accurate one of them needs to have a slightly different color balance. For some reason I always seem to have a “warm” and “cold” eye

      Yeah, what’s up with that? Glad I’m not the only one

      Oh I figured I just had slightly worse color vision in my lazy eye. Vision deficits are pretty common with amblyopia though, most treatment focuses on making sure the eye develops good focus whether or not it works with the dominant one, because then you at least have a backup if you wind up needing it.

        Both of my eyes are a little bit fuzzy but if I open them both I can see perfectly, it’s weird.

        I also have this phenomenon and thought about an explanation, as there isn’t any research regarding this topic: The relative density and distribution of cones in the eyes can vary slightly between eyes, which could lead to minimal differences in color perception. There could also be microscopic differences in the structure of the crystalline lens, the cornea or the vitreous body, which could refract or filter the light differently and thus slightly influence the perceived color temperature.

      These are not US and Mexico, just parallel universes.

    This introduces the possibility that we’re experiencing 2 universes and creating a third within ourselves.

      Most of concepts that we assume are intrinsic to reality (like color and sound pitch, or even the feeling of hot and cold) are just our brain interpreting small fragments of physical reality, and then filling in the blanks. Your world is your own creation.

        you don’t see that there’s a thing across the place. you sense that the light that came from it hit your eye. you sense literally only things you interact with directly.

          You don’t even sense the things you touch directly. You sense atoms in your body being pushed by the atoms in the thing because the electrons get close to each other

        Oh! I’ll have to watch that. Hadn’t realized Apple toys with this theme quite a bit. Constellation had so much promise but it flamed out for me. Severance might be tangentially related with the theme, compartmentalized lives, being equally fascinating.

        Mr. Robot and Counterpart did things to my brain questioning reality.

          Yeah, it’s a pretty good series. It was based on a novel AND they managed to get the novel writer to be the Showrunner. It’s a double edged sword too, based on the discussions that I’ve read, all of the criticisms for the novel also applies to the series as it’s a very faithful adaptation.

    False, this is the same image with 2 different crops. If it was actually taken at 2 different angles there would be depth information encoded in them, there isn’t any.

        I must be in a parallel universe then, because they’re the same image just cropped in 2 different spots. I literally just overlayed them here with one at 50% transparency, there’s no ghosting.

    This very much might be a me thing, but the meme needs noticeable, but subtle color differences from wye to eye.

      Interesting. I’ve experienced that before but not typically. Did you wear those old 3D glasses too long as a kid.
