the entire time?
of course - and I'd question my decision to invite them
unless they're sharing their screen with everyone (showing pics, etc) or taking a group pic, having their phone out and pointed at you for more than a few moments would be both uncomfortable and rude
- somsak2 3y agoif you place a phone face-down and have the macro lens recording, you could pretty easily see both people at a table.
- ImPostingOnHN 3y agoI am not aware of a commonly used phone with a 180 degree FOV macro lens, but regardless of how a phone on the table makes me feel, someone holding a phone up, pointing at me for all of lunch, would be rude and discomforting.
- Gh0stRAT 3y agoThey could be pointing it mostly at the table (<45° angle) and you'd still be in frame without realizing.
- ImPostingOnHN 3y agoI don't see how I could fail to notice that my fellow diner was rudely and discomfortingly holding or using their phone for the entire meal, or that they carefully balanced one end of their phone on top of stuff on the table at a 45 degree angle pointing towards me for no apparent reason
