Still about 100 picoseconds too slow for my taste.
400 for my use case, we're trying to violate causality
The human eye can’t even perceive faster than 1000 picoseconds, so…
Really? I would have guessed the eye was 6 orders of magnitude slower than that.
What, you can't measure the size of a room by timing the bounces of light hitting the walls?
No! I didn't know that's how you guys were doing it. I feel silly for using perspective and the slight differences from my right and left eyes to judge distance this whole time!
Sheesh, you’re living in the stone ages my dude.
