Can people with near sightedness see something far away if they use a close mirror?

People who can only see with glasses need them because their vision has degraded. And the structure of glasses is to enhance the image by placing a focusing apparatus a certain distance from their eye to get sharpest quality of what they're looking at. --Similar to how we use magnifying glasses and microscopes to see something outside of our regular range of vision-- right? At least that's the premise.

Cameras taking pictures, specifically old cameras, and not digital cameras, but also digital cameras. Expose themselves to light to capture the detail, which is engrained into some film or sensor. I remember hearing that the negatives of film cameras have all the detail up to extremely fine detail, but the method we had to expose them made the quality get loaded. Similar to how with increased pixels, we can sharpen the image of what is on a screen. Or polygons in 3D design in games.

Mirrors and other reflective surfaces reflect whatever light photons/waves hit it. Now the amount of light does decrease depending on how much light is absorbed, because mirrors are not perfect reflective surfaces.

So my question is this: would a near sighted person, one who cannot see far away from them, be able to see detail or far away objects, which they could not normally see, with clarity as if it was that close to them by using a handheld?

I will clarify that the person can read letters on a page very crisply at 10-12 size font at an arms length. However, no magnification of the object occurs. It is that simply what they are seeing is now "closer to them" because it is on the mirrored surface

My thought is that yes they could. Because it would be as if they had a picture or video of the thing they are looking at with great detail.

I want to know what anyone else thinks? I’ll do a poll for simplicity

Don’t know if this was said already (or if it’s canon) but I don’t think the way Proxy and his ‘kingdom’ portray Caesar was created/made up by Proxy.

In the 300 year time gap between Kingdom and War, it makes sense that Caesar’s name and legacy would be interpreted differently by all kinds of ape colonies all over the world.

Heck, I bet even intelligent humans like Mae would have their own interpretation of who Caesar was and his relation to humans being mute and apes being the dominant ones (wasn’t it implied in Kingdom that Mae and Trevathon did know a little bit about him?).

That said, 300 years is plenty of time for ideas and misinterpretations to be created and handed down for generations. Maybe Proxy’s ‘royal family’ came up with the ‘literal interpretation of apes together strong’ or ‘any act of violence is for Caesar’ mentality he and his apes believe in.

Similarly but more on Proxy, bonobos are typically ruled by a monarchy (females being the leader) so while Proxy may have been born to the royal family, he might not have necessarily been the heir to the throne.

I’m just talking out loud here but maybe he had a sister (older or twin) who was meant to be queen but she died unexpectedly and Proxy became king in her place. If this is the case, he might have used Caesar’s name (literally changing his name and also the already twisted narrative of Caesar) to give himself more leverage as king.

That may also be where his love of Roman history comes into play. I think he might have already loved Roman history anyway (or knew enough about it to include ‘Proximus’ in his name) but he may have used it for ideas to rule his kingdom.

- Of course this depends on how much ‘ape traits’ the apes keep in Kingdom: female leaders in bonobos, chimps being violent, etc. Make of all this what you will!

I just fell down a rabbit hole about (legal) body disposal and part of me is so anxious wishing I could tell the FBI agent monitoring my internet searches that I’m just morbidly curious and I’m not planning on dying anytime soon (or planning anything ELSE, for that matter)

wearing a fit you feel like a fictional charater (even better a kin) would wear. it’s like having your own little inside joke with yourself and the beauty in that is indescribable.

Hangyodon’s knight has finally been revealed, and his name is Hangyon!

His VA is Yohei Matsuoka, and his Illustrator is Ozaki Domino!

His personality is said to be “strange and bizarre”, he has a mysterious personality that makes it hard to figure out what his true intentions are.

I really like him a lot, I love his color scheme, his funky glasses, his entire attire, and of course, the octopus lady on his shoulder, Lily!

I love being a polytheist so much.

Me and my mum visited the city today and Hermes kept sending signs to us all day, it made me so happy knowing he was with us.

At first I felt his presence while we were bussing in, I was kind of confused as I was listening to ‘Pomegranate Seeds’ and that’s Persephone’s song

Later a feather I was following with my eyes landed on my shoe while I was walking

On the way home we got the only 2 seats left on the bus (they were next to each other which was nice)

And all throughout the day mum kept getting texts about her driving exam in all the places she’d first been tested on it
