That video made my night. Re: contact lenses - I've done some weird shit for money. One weird thing I did was design command and control centers. I can point to the MIL STD for information display. I used to be a member of SID. I've designed 911 control centers. Another weird thing I did was design implantable devices. Shock/pace leads for atrial defibrillators. Synthetic skin. Ultrasonic catheters (granted, those aren't supposed to stay in). There's very little information in the world that I want to see all the time. There are very few activities for which I need a head-up display. And considering how contrary the body can be about close proximity to synthetic materials, I'd need a pretty compelling reason to invite electronics that close to my vision. I know fyoochur and shit, but... ...well, sometimes I am a Luddite.
Just got PRK, myself, so I don't exactly miss contacts, but I'd gladly put one (or two) back into my eyes for a few hours every day if it meant I could interface with the 'net seamlessly. And yeah, screw having an interface constantly in my field of view, I guess I'm hoping for something that I activate with a series of eye movements? Like... up-down-right-left-right-down-up, or whatever. Do you ever even sleep? Sometimes I think that you are actually a team of people that share access to one username. Thanks for that reddit comment link. Funny you mention LASIK... I'd still recommend PRK, it's changed my life. No lasting corneal flaps! Just 4 days of excruciating pain. Worth it!Re: contact lenses... ...There's very little information in the world that I want to see all the time
