What always got me was how mirrors swap right and left, but not top and bottom.
I can sit and think about it long enough it makes sense, but it’s so fucking unintuitive, that i need to convince myself every time i ponder it
that’s because mirrors don’t swap left and right; They swap front and back. You flip the words on a page left and right when you turn the page around to face the mirror
Yep, if you flip the page vertically instead then the mirror appears to swap top and bottom. And if you have text on a transparent medium, you can see the actual effect.
Just turn your head to the side
Oh just need to turn the mirror over
Coaxial tension, my friend.
By which hand you reach for them with.
Real LPT in the comments. You can also get “opposite-handed” scissors to work by faking them out. Reach with the hand they want you to use, and use that hand to put them into the hand you want to use. Works every time.
it lines up with your eye
What’s your point exactly? I see you ranting about people reposting stuff from elsewhere. I don’t visit the other place so I don’t mind the repost.
As if all the stuff here was supposed to be 100% original otherwise the fake Internet points Lemmy don’t even sum in your profile IIRC are counterfeit or something?
Have you really spent this whole time thinking Lemmy is 100% original content never posted on Reddit before?
THAT’S HILARIOUS!!!
Repost police?
Maybe reddit agents, or just weirdos
