stupid orb doesnt even give off any heat and if a halfblind driver ends up killing me on my way home from work im going to be not amused

getting killed is an on your way to work activity...not an on your way home activity

...i like winter...but that sun has got to go.... i dunno...take a holiday for 3 months of the year or something

I say let it be. It’s not like I ever get to see it anyway.

I have a better idea: carry your own portable sun to light your way.

Sounds like you need to live up in the Arctic Circle...

Iceland isn’t quite there, but they do all speak English, which could be handy.

Must be nice having the sun in either direction. I just barely get some sunrise in the morning where its still behind the mountains but there is some light. And then its pitch black at least an hour before I leave work. Id take a bit of blinding over driving in the dark. Headlights tend to blind me more anyways.

Have you tried good polarized ones? They destroy glare, I like wearing them better than my regular glasses.

eh...i prefer the dark... i have lights for that

pretty much nothing makes me visible riding around in the sun glare

its not me being blinded that bothers me (well...okay thats annoying too...but its not my main bother)

i dont know tbh.... my regular glasses darken when im outside...but not enough for that amount of glare

Ahh I see now what you meant. Yeah Ive been pretty sketched about not being able to see in the sun and wondering how bad it must make incompetent people respond. Considering how poorly I see people drive without anything going wrong, its only bound to be worse in sun glare.
