How many clicks up do you read with?

[Jaffa Cake]

Just default for me. My eyes aren't quite bad enough yet that I need text at noddy sizes – default is nice and comfortable. I might knock it down a little if I'm on my iBook, though – the combination of a much smaller screen and being closer to it means that I'l usually go a click down.

 

[Chundles]

Yes, exactly like that. Am I legally blind?

No, not legally.

Mind you, that font size would be fine if you were using your computer from the moon.

 

[MACDRIVE]

you are making yourself confused.

chuddles reads at default size. you are 3 clicks above default

Yes, I finally figured that out. But even so, Chundles's eyes must be bionic.

Or you have your computer monitor across the room. I read at the default size myself.

how? I read at default size too

 

[Chundles]

They're the bloody default settings. When will you get this through your thick skull?!!

It's not that my eyes are bionic - I wear glasses as well. It's just that yours are dead-set terrible.

"Your mom" jokes are the best. Chundles once again proves himself a classy, classy individual.

 

[MACDRIVE]

no, you need glasses... get yourself an appointment

Ok I measured the distance between my eyeball and the screen, it's 31 inches (78.74 centimeters). And I read with 3 clicks up from default. How bad is that?

Well, I do try.

Now, are there any Aussies out there who know a good 24 hour hairdressers that can trim a mullet?

Well, remember Mr Magoo? He could be your guide.

quite... I sit a little further back (around 35/6) and I can see/read perfectly on default. I can read the smallest setting, but then I need to wear my glasses

Well, remember Mr Magoo? He could be your guide.

Go ask coca-cola for some glass bottles....

Well can you at least take into account that I'm not wearing glasses and I'm reading this with my naked eyeball???

 

[Willis]

yes.. but what we're saying is, your eyesight is pretty bad, so if you dont wear glasses anyway, you should get them checked out

 

[Chundles]

Well can you at least take into account that I'm not wearing glasses and I'm reading this with my naked eyeball???

I'm using mine at default settings without my glasses and it's clear as day from a range of "my chin on the trackpad" to "greater than arm's length."

So your eyesight is crap.

This started out as one of my curiousity threads and now I'm finding out my eyes are bad.

you're cracking me up

Could I politely suggest that you get glasses? Please tell me you don't drive a car with eyesight like that and no glasses...

Edit: I just tried it myself without my glasses and I'd have to have it 4 clicks bigger than default.

Damn it to bloody hell... This must be God's way of cursing me for visiting porn sites.

Well I brought the text down to where you said "Make Text Smaller" is greyed out, and I have to strain to read that.

I never tried this before. Pretty cool. Still easy to read for me.

 

[MACDRIVE]

Ok... 25/20 is above average vision right? That's what I had in my early twenties.

What happened?
