The anti Autism chat service.
I was thinking it could be used as a kind of exposure therapy to help with that aversion. At least, I’d be willing to try it out for that purpose.
And because I can't help myself from making very dated TV references:
Do not attempt to adjust your set. This is a Streaming Freedom Video bulletin. The cable hack will last exactly 60 seconds. It cannot be traced, it cannot be stopped and it is the only free voice left in the city.
That’s what I thought. But I’m not particularly afraid of eye contact, I’m just not good at it. But just reading the article with those pictures made me uncomfortable.
Maybe if it’s just one set of eyes staring at me instead of 5 that’d be better.
Have been thinking the same.
I have a serious anxiety when it comes to video calls. My direct colleagues know about it and don’t mind, but it is weird when having remote meetings involving other people. This is probably really harming my professional success.
So I was considering trying some Chatroulette like service to get more relaxed towards video calls, but was really put off when hearing about all the offensive sexual weirdness there.
Eyechat would omit that while still being near enough to a classic full-face video-call. I think this might actually work as some kind of exposure therapy. I might give it a try.
Pretty much my thoughts (and experience) as well.
There’s the AI nvidia tool that makes your eyes always looking at the screen. Could be useful for video calls?
It’s not the looking-at-th-screen-thing, but rather the switching-the-camera-on-in-the-first-place-thing, the understanding-anything-at-all-while-the-screen-is-covered-in-people-thing and the not-being-a-total-exhausted-mess-who-needs-an-hourlong-pause-to-function-again-afterwards -thing.
So no, wouldn’t be useful, I am afraid.
Its nice to see what my own version of hell is going to be like.
The creator of EyeChat created some rather interesting websites on which I lost a good 30 minutes on 😅
And there goes the rest of my afternoon

What’s your kill count in the trolley problem?
Did it, got 86 >:3
Believe it or not, you can do this in a real conversation too!
The Muslims are way ahead of us on this one, showing the way with the hijab and burka.

I don’t think you’re trying to be xenophobic with this joke, but I feel like you should know that it’s probably not landing the way you want it to…
Maybe I am? Maybe I’m one of those people… Better downvote me just in case. :)
What are you trying to achieve here, “triggering” people? It just registers as infantile to me.
Classic self loathing externalised on internet forums

Idk about love but someone had blood on their face and looked like they just killed someone
