treeduck Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I mean whatever screen you have, phone, tablet, desktop, laptop... Is it at 200%? 90%? 120%? 150%? I've got it at 110% that seems right for me on my 17.3 inch laptop screen with my perfect 20/20 vision. :smoke: Most of you apes can't see without glasses I expect and you still probably have to have it at 900% to make anything out! :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 When I was in the 7th grade, we went on a field trip on the school grounds to see how maple syrup was extracted from trees ... It was not my thing at the time, so I drifted away and climbed a tree .. The teacher was understandably upset when he saw where I was - which wasn;t that high - but when he started yelling, I thought it would be fun to hang from the branch upside-down - the branch behind my knees and arms dangling down .. I remember the crack and the fall - and I remember being confused as to why the teacher was so pissed at me - but I landed head first and was taken to the nurse's office .. She gave me an eye test and determined that my left eye was a bit weaker .. My right eye was perfectly fine ... That same year, I was hit in the face with a baseball at my Little League All-Star debut .. That required a hospital visit I can;t be sure if the cause of the vision in my left eye was due to the fall .. To make a short story long, wheat is pretty amazing is that my vision has stayed the same since .. I have the exact same prescription now than I did 40 years ago ... I have my computer set to 100% .. Congrats on the new laptop Duck, and I see that in honor of the occasion, you've changed you signature pics !! I'll do the same by tonight !!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible airwave Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I’ll say this, iOS 12 hasn’t changed anything except the design of the Google search app. Size remains the same for the iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
