There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

I don't think a computer screen stimulates vision that much. I mean it's only 2D, not 3D, a fairly limited range of brightness. It's always at the same distance from your head so your eyes don't even need to re-focus. It's not even that big. I mean you can probably still see your desk with your peripheral vision, so it's not even needed while looking at a screen... How would that train or improve something?
I'd do something like go outside and play paintball in the woods, if I wanted to use my peripheral vision.
What if OP wants to play mahjong on a 200 inch projector screen
Then all but one argument would still apply. I mean that'd probably be even darker. But OP needed to move their head around, which is... something... I guess? I'd play some spaceship game on that kind of gear, though.
(And why do inches even extend to 200 when it comes to projectors? While I have to remember additional feet that I'm tall? I don't get it. But certainly makes the conversion easier.)
