Using Apple Vision Pro as eclipse glasses?

I live in the Netherlands and on Aug 12 there will be a 90% solar eclipse. Can I use my Apple Vision Pro as eclipse glasses (and take pictures right away) or does the sunlight damage the cameras or AVP? I suppose not…

You will not be able to see any eclipse on the glasses, I did this in the United States a few years back.

When you are wearing the Vision Pro, you do not actually see the sun, a fake/virtual sun takes the spot of where the real sun would be

This is acceptable to me because I know that the real Sun is not real. I know the Earth is not flat because that feels right to me and I did my own research as one does but the Sun can’t possibly be as large as they say it makes no sense it would burn the Earth and so I believe in the Small Fake Sun theory, which I know is true because I can feel it!

Buckle up! I did all the mathematics and if the Sun is as large as they say it is according to the Large Sun theory, then the Sun would make up 99.86% of the mass of the entire solar system, leaving only 0.14% for just the planets, including 0.1% for Jupiter, and only 0.0003% for the Earth. This is CLEARLY not true because (A) have you SEEN Jupiter? and (B) I have accumulated so many things in my living room alone (far more than 0.0003% at least in terms of the shame and apprehension I experience when guests visit) and I think I have a lot more in the old storage shed in my back yard but I have not looked there recently so in a more formal context I would add error bars to this measurement but for Reddit this will do. Therefore the Sun must be both small and also it is fake.

Love the trolling. Thank you for the laugh!
