      That’s why I cut out the middle man. I place a screen at a predictable distance from my face all the time and let the cameras autofocus. AI makes everyone hot too.

      The ads are a bitch though, but the Ritalin I got from Hims helps.

      I not only have to pay to see, but I have also to pay huge markups for it??? Fucking hell.

      It was always weird to me how expensive glasses and lenses were, now I’m just pissed at being right.

        Yep. I go to Costco now because I’m blind in one eye so the correction is only for the other eye. Costco only charges me 50% of the normal lens cost and the blind eye just gets a balance lens (weight matched to the other without correction).

        I’ve walked out with a brand new pair of lenses and frames for $30 after my eye “insurance”.

      Noooo! Well, I tried. I can’t remember which I got, but not a brand I recognized. I’ll have to look them up

      Anyone reading this there is still value in undermining the investment the conglomerate made in purchasing raybans.
