@saustrup @marcoarment Looks like HAL 9000 from “2001: A Space Odyssey” movie.

I'm pretty sure focused solar IR on the retina could also be bad. And you wouldn't blink because you wouldn't feel it.

@saustrup Similarly you can make a janky diy IR filter for b&w shots using the film as a lens gel on your camera. Given the results of said filter I don't know that I'd count on it to protect my vision looking directly at the sun.

@saustrup Okay but now Netscape Navigator won't install correctly

@saustrup you're not partially blind? that's good it worked.

@saustrup home made solutions are the most dangerous. You may block enough visible light to make it so it feels okay, but let enough UV through to harm your retina, and you won't know until it's too late.
