    That’s not just you, my reprojection mirror also has a fixed field view since the latest firmware update and the fuckers locked firmware downgrades so if you didn’t jailbreak yours beforehand, now you can’t and you can’t change the fov to more than 1:1

    No doubt because they’re about to release a pro version and that will be the only reason to pay extra for it.

    I don’t get it. What is spooky or scary?

    I thought it was just a funny joke.

    Mirror technology timeline!
    Chirality ‘n’ shit.

    A mirror’s primary surface - a metal like silver that has just one electron sticking out alone in the top atomic orbital, plus other free electrons sliding around the surface, I believe - absorbs photons, then re-emits new photons almost exactly like the ones that came in.

    It’s because you are a vampire and mirrors are no longer made out of silver. Just good old aluminium.

    That’s not a mirror that’s a murder pretending to be you on the other side

      I was going to say it’s pretty depressing, but then I’ve remembered waking up in general in this awful world is

      Huh, never saw this one but in high school I had a dream just like this. I met a beautiful woman, perfect in every way, we got married had some kids, I even got some ways into middle age. Then, I was sitting in chair and noticed that my vision seemed… blurry at the edges, in a very “vignette filter” kind of way and I immediately knew I was dreaming. Woke up just as the existential collapse started. For several years after I’d try to remember her face, what our love had felt like, any of the details that had seemed so solid and tantalizing real for those few sleeping hours.

      In retrospect, a lot like that Rick and Morty episode with the life simulator game. I wonder if one of the writers ever had that dream too? Brains are weird, and I haven’t any dreams nearly that all encompassing since.

        I had a dream like that about an ex. Everything perfect, house, kids, the whole thing. It felt like one of those super realistic dreams too. I woke up and got a panic attack that fucked me over for 3 or 4 days when I realized it was just a dream. Human psyche is scary as fuck sometimes.
