irrelevant. What you may or may not claim to believe in spades.

Stop backpedalling and discuss your shortfall properly.

I assume the higher switching speed needs better transistors etc.

You're wrong with the rates involved.

Funny how they don't all do it. Funny how it's only recently we've had them fast enough to make switch mode power supplies and smaller coils possible.

In spades with movies in movie theaters. That frame
rate was chosen because most couldn't see that flicker.

Not the same thing.

Corse its still flicker for freaks.

It's less visible.

Still visible for freaks.

Why do you persist in calling half the population freaks, who can all see something you can't? Is a dog a freak because it can smell better than we can? Or does it perhaps have the ability to detect what we miss?

LED lights on cars are deliberately pulsed to get more effective
brightness (as far as the human eye is concerned, peak brightness is
what
enables you to see better) from the same LEDs with less heat. But LEDs
go
completely off between pulses.

And so doubling the pulse rate doesn't cost anymore.

Movie theatres (you mean cinemas,

No I do not.

theatres are for plays, they have a stage,

Movie theaters arent for plays and they don't have stages.

you're talking American)

Wrong, as always.

Cinema = big screen and projector.
Theatre = stage with live actors.

Wrong, as always.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatre

"Theatre or theater[1] is a collaborative form of fine art that uses live performers, typically actors or actresses, to present the experience of a real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often a stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, and dance. Elements of art, such as painted scenery and stagecraft such as lighting are used to enhance the physicality, presence and immediacy of the experience.[2] The specific place of the performance is also named by the word "theatre" as derived from the Ancient Greek θέατρον (théatron, "a place for viewing"), itself from θεάομαι (theáomai, "to see", "to watch", "to observe")."

don't illuminate the screen with LEDs.

Duh. And irrelevant to whether the frame rate was
chosen because most don't see any flicker with it.
Flicker didn't only happen with LEDs, stupid.

They happen more so as they switch on and off instantly.

Wrong, as always.

LEDs switch on ad off faster than any other form of light, that is an indisputable fact.

Why do you think Panasonic made a 100Hz TV?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and are free to pay more for
something faster.

Being able to detect something you can't makes them better than you.

Even sillier than you usually manage and that's saying
something. Much worse in fact when car lights flicker.

Perhaps you should ditch your sense of smell, because smelling things you
don't like is annoying.

There is nothing that I find annoying about any
smell except a big rotting animal corpse in hot
weather and that's so rare that it just isnt a problem.

Being able to detect (and being annoyed about) something that smells bad is a good thing. It makes you want to get rid of it.

I poison mice because its more convenient to
do that than to fart around with traps and never
have a problem with any smell from dead ones.

More fun to trap them and watch them slowly die.

Nevermind the advantage of smell....

Why do you think Iiyama made 90Hz monitors?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and
are free to pay more for something faster.

High frequency monitors were very popular.

Not because many ever saw any flicker.

There would be no other reason.

And it was proven that low frequency ones cause headaches and eye damage
for people using them all day in offices.

Bullshit.

No it isn't. Go do some research and stop yourself being so utterly clueless. At my first place of work it was actually one of the regulations that anyone could request a higher frequency monitor if they believed it was annoying or giving them headaches.

Half the population isnt.

Then you must know a lot of people with fucked eyesight.

Nothing fucked about not seeing flicker on car lights.

Your eyes are clearly operating more slowly,

Nope, just a lower flicker fusion threshold

at a lower frame rate.

Eyes don't have a frame rate.

The eyes and the brain together have a frame rate.

No they do not. They actually have a flicker fusion threshold.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

Precisely what I said,

Nope, there is no equivalent of a frame rate
with eyes. You don't get any reversal of the
rotation direction as you change the rotation
rate with eyes so there is no frame rate.

Only because the brain is clever and makes the most sense it can.

Nope, if there was any frame rate with eyes, the brain
couldn't do that. It clearly cant with flashing leds.

Obviously your eyes must be able to give your brain x number of images per
second.

They actually do that continuously, no frame rate.

with a different name.

Wrong, as always.

Easily measured.

Even the flicker fusion threshold isnt. It varys with the
part of the eye the light that is flickering is viewed by
and by the intensity and depth of flicker too.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

You need to take the most sensitive part, as when driving any part of it
could see someone's lights.

No point given only freaks see any flicker.

It only takes one to cause an accident,

It clearly doesn't cause accidents. If it did,
the flash rate would be legally mandated.

> and there's a lot of them.

Sure.

Why only sell things suitable for those with shitty eyesight?

They are actually designed to work fine for all but freaks.

Why would you call someone with better eyes a freak?

Worse eyes when you see flicker with car lights.

No, I see what's really there.

No you don't. Most obviously with higher flicker rates that you don't
see
either.

I see more than you do.

And that's obviously a bad thing when you
see flicker with car lights that only freaks see.

I prefer to see reality

You don't with the higher flicker rates.

I don't prefer or don't see?

You don't see reality when the flicker rate is
above your personal flicker fusion threshold.
Everyone has one, they just vary.

than something your brain made up.

You're stuck with that anyway.

My brain shows me what I can see

Not when the flicker rate is faster than
your personal flicker fusion threshold.

> and doesn't lie like yours.

Yes it does when when the flicker rate is
faster than your personal flicker fusion
threshold, just like with everyone else.

If it didn't you'd see all led car lights flickering and
you have correctly said that some of them don't.

Why buy a 25fps video camera when you can buy a 50fps video camera?

Nothing whatever to do with video cameras.

It's the same thing entirely.

Nope, eyes don't have a frame rate. Trivial to
prove by observing that the rotation direction
never changes as the rotation speed is changed.

A faster camera and a faster eye can see much better.

Much worse in fact with car lights.

I don't want to be fooled,

You are anyway when the flicker rate is faster
than your personal flicker fusion threshold.

> I want to know what is actually in front of me.

You don't when the flicker rate is faster
than your personal flicker fusion threshold.

They also see flicker where the cheap shit cameras and your faulty eyes
can't.

Yours are the faulty eyes that see
flicker where no one else does.

The flicker is there, we're in agreement on that. I'd rather see what is
actually there.

You don't when the flicker rate is faster than your personal
flicker fusion threshold, just like with everyone else.

If you can't see the flicker that I can, then your eyes aren't
as good as mine.

Nothing good about eyes that see flicker everywhere.

We see what is really there, you don't.

Still fucked to have all car lights flicker. You're a freak.

But they are flickering.

But its better not to see that. You're a freak.

It is better to see what is really there.

Like hell it is with car lights, movies, TVs, fluoros, monitors etc.

they should be made properly.

No point in pandering to freaks.

A TV should have a phosphor (or equivalent for LEDs)

There is no equivalent for leds.

Of course there is, you could design a circuit for example that left each
one lit until the next frame.

They do. There is no persistence involved, not off state
except when that bit of the screen is meant to be black.

decay rate long enough to stay on until the next frame.

Problem is that produces smear with fast moving bits of images.

No, that's when the decay rate is slower than the frame rate.

Wrong.

What other things are you missing in life?

None with the flicker fusion threshold.

Your eyes must be taking longer to notice things changing.

I don't miss flicker, its useless information.

It's reality.

No it isnt when the flicker rate is faster than your personal
flicker fusion threshold, just like with everyone else.

Your eyes/brain are assuming things look the same, when in fact they've
changed.

So I don't see flicker with car lights. Great.

If your eyes are reacting slower than mine and see flicker, you presumably
also react slower to something you need to see, like brake lights.

Only by milliseconds.

> I have done tests and my reaction time is about twice as fast as average.

Nothing to do with personal flicker fusion threshold
and its completely trivial to prove that by measuring
both as your reaction time changes as you get pissed.
Your personal flicker fusion threshold doesn't change
as your reaction time changes. They are entirely
different phenomena.

In fact I don't get to be pissed off about flicker in common
stuff like car lights, TVs,. movies, fluoros etc etc etc.

Only the cheap ones piss me off.

Your problem, as always. None piss me off.

There are plenty cars which have decent LEDs.

None flicker for me.

Go film one with a video camera, or just look up a video of one.

I know they flicker, that's irrelevant to
whether it makes any sense to see that.

I don't see any flicker with movies and it makes no sense
to be able to be see the flicker that is certainly there.

You don't see it because CRTs had phosphors to match the frame rate,

Wrong, as always with movies in movie theaters.

Well they must have done something, because they looked way less
flickery
than a cheap 60Hz monitor.

they would stay lit for the 50th of a second between each
illumination.
Same is done now with LCDs.

Wrong, as always. There is no persistence with lcds.

What's the actual name for it?

There is no it with lcds.

Because when I google persistence, I get things referring to screen
burn.

That's an entirely different persistence, lasts forever.

No it doesn't.

Screen burn does.

> I've got an old Benq LCD monitor here that gets it for about 10 seconds.

That's not screen burn.

I remember CRTs (on old Apple Macs (about Performa 475 era)) getting it
for about 10 minutes. It doesn't always last forever with either
technology.

Real screen burn does.

flicker?

Just a few mindlessly ranting freaks, like you.

I must have asked about 30 people I know about it, and about half
agreed
it was irritating.

The technical term for that is 'pathetically inadequate sample'

I've done statistics at uni,

And clearly the whole lot went right over your head, as always.

I know what an adequate sample is.

You clearly don't with that steaming turd above.

Well I understand this,

No you do not.

How can you possibly know if I don't?

From that stupid claim of yours above.

It's your end that's stupid.

Everyone can see for themselves who the stupid is, you.

do you?

Corse I do.

Don't believe you.

You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly
irrelevant. What you may or may not claim to believe in spades.

Stop backpedalling

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic fantasys.

> and discuss your shortfall properly.

There is no shortfall of mine.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination#Required_sample_sizes_for_hypothesis_tests

To make it easier for you:
https://www.qualtrics.com/blog/calculating-sample-size/

For example, with the world population of 7.5 billion, to be 90% sure
you
only have an error margin of 10%, you only need 63 people in your
sample.

So yours is clearly a pathetically inadequate sample.

It's half of what's required for the above accuracy. I don't need that
much accuracy. Even if I was 20% out, then saying that 50% of people
can
see flicker means that 40% can. 40% is a big enough part of the
population to cater for.

Thanks for that completely superfluous
proof that you don't in fact have a fucking
clue about even the most basic statistics.

If you did, you'd tell me what I did wrong.

Already did.

If half could actually see car lights flicker, the
designers wouldn't have designed them like that.

Economy.

Doesn't cost anymore to say double the pulse
rate so that even freaks like you can't see it.

I assume the higher switching speed needs better transistors etc.

Not the same thing.

It isnt anything even remotely like half the population.

My parents believed that dogs had ESP because they
can work out when one of them is coming home long

can hear the family vehicle long before a human can.

LED lights on cars are deliberately pulsed to get more effective
brightness (as far as the human eye is concerned, peak brightness is
what enables you to see better) from the same LEDs with less heat.
But LEDs go completely off between pulses.

And so doubling the pulse rate doesn't cost anymore.

"Theatre or theater[1] is a collaborative form of fine art that uses live
performers, typically actors or actresses, to present the experience of a
real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often a
stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience

That’s just one type of theater, stupid. Even you
must be aware of operating theaters which have
no stage and no play being performed.

You're the one with that problem, as always.

At my first place of work it was actually one of the regulations that
anyone could request a higher frequency monitor if they believed it was
annoying or giving them headaches.

why does google have 4.5 million results for the car light
flicker?

Just a few mindlessly ranting freaks, like you.

I must have asked about 30 people I know about it, and about half
agreed
it was irritating.

The technical term for that is 'pathetically inadequate sample'

I've done statistics at uni,

And clearly the whole lot went right over your head, as always.

I know what an adequate sample is.

You clearly don't with that steaming turd above.

Well I understand this,

No you do not.

How can you possibly know if I don't?

From that stupid claim of yours above.

It's your end that's stupid.

Everyone can see for themselves who the stupid is, you.

do you?

Corse I do.

Don't believe you.

You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly
irrelevant. What you may or may not claim to believe in spades.

Stop backpedalling

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic fantasys.

and discuss your shortfall properly.

There is no shortfall of mine.

You always give up and quote the same "insults" when you don't have an answer. I have you backed into a corner because you haven't a fucking clue what you're talking about. You're so predictable.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination#Required_sample_sizes_for_hypothesis_tests

To make it easier for you:
https://www.qualtrics.com/blog/calculating-sample-size/

For example, with the world population of 7.5 billion, to be 90% sure
you
only have an error margin of 10%, you only need 63 people in your
sample.

So yours is clearly a pathetically inadequate sample.

It's half of what's required for the above accuracy. I don't need that
much accuracy. Even if I was 20% out, then saying that 50% of people
can
see flicker means that 40% can. 40% is a big enough part of the
population to cater for.

Thanks for that completely superfluous
proof that you don't in fact have a fucking
clue about even the most basic statistics.

If you did, you'd tell me what I did wrong.

Already did.

No, you gave no information, you just said "bullshit" etc.

If half could actually see car lights flicker, the
designers wouldn't have designed them like that.

Economy.

Doesn't cost anymore to say double the pulse
rate so that even freaks like you can't see it.

I assume the higher switching speed needs better transistors etc.

You're wrong with the rates involved.

Funny how they don't all do it.

Because the designers can't see it and didn’t bother to research

Funny how it's only recently we've had them fast enough to make switch

There must be a reason they don't just make them switch very fast, perhaps it wears the LED out?

In spades with movies in movie theaters. That frame
rate was chosen because most couldn't see that flicker.

Not the same thing.

Corse its still flicker for freaks.

It's less visible.

Still visible for freaks.

Why do you persist in calling half the population freaks,

It isnt anything even remotely like half the population.

Yes it is, by simple observation of those around you. Don't you ever talk to anyone?

who can all see something you can't?

Because that’s what they are, freaks.

Is a dog a freak because it can smell better than we can?

No, because its only the freaks of dogs that can't.

Ah, so you just accept the majority as being correct. So Einstein was a freak because he was one of very few people who was that clever. You would have had him burned at the stake wouldn't you? I mean it's not normal to be that clever, there must be something wrong with him, best we get rid of him?

Or does it perhaps have the ability to detect what we miss?

Yes they do with sound unless they have gone deaf.
My parents believed that dogs had ESP because they
can work out when one of them is coming home long

and stop yourself being so utterly clueless.

You're the one with that problem, as always.

At my first place of work it was actually one of the regulations that
anyone could request a higher frequency monitor if they believed it was
annoying or giving them headaches.

That operation actually was that stupid ? Irrelevant
to your stupid pig ignorant claim about eye damage.

Funny how the better monitors took the headaches away.

Funny how no one ever got any eye damage with the standard ones.

Why do you think Iiyama made 90Hz monitors?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and
are free to pay more for something faster.

High frequency monitors were very popular.

Not because many ever saw any flicker.

There would be no other reason.

Wrong, as always.

Getting back to the subject of the LEDs.... I decided I needed an oscilloscope. Just got one for ÂŁ19 from China! Little portable thing that runs off a PP3 9V battery. Fairly basic, but it measures up to 200kHz waveforms.

Well it says up to 200kHz. I'd be using it for mains frequencies, or SMPS frequencies, or perhaps audio, or diagnosing car faults. Can't think of anything over 200kHz I'd use it for, that would be ham radio etc.

why does google have 4.5 million results for the car light
flicker?

Just a few mindlessly ranting freaks, like you.

I must have asked about 30 people I know about it, and about
half
agreed
it was irritating.

The technical term for that is 'pathetically inadequate sample'

I've done statistics at uni,

And clearly the whole lot went right over your head, as always..

I know what an adequate sample is.

You clearly don't with that steaming turd above.

Well I understand this,

No you do not.

How can you possibly know if I don't?

From that stupid claim of yours above.

It's your end that's stupid.

Everyone can see for themselves who the stupid is, you.

do you?

Corse I do.

Don't believe you.

You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly
irrelevant. What you may or may not claim to believe in spades.

Stop backpedalling

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic
fantasys.

and discuss your shortfall properly.

There is no shortfall of mine.

You always give up and quote the same "insults" when you don't have an
answer.

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic fantasys.

QED.

I have you backed into a corner

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic fantasys.

QED.

because you haven't a fucking clue what you're talking about. You're so
predictable.

You never could bullshit your way out of a wet paper bag.

QED.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination#Required_sample_sizes_for_hypothesis_tests

To make it easier for you:
https://www.qualtrics.com/blog/calculating-sample-size/

For example, with the world population of 7.5 billion, to be 90%
sure
you
only have an error margin of 10%, you only need 63 people in your
sample.

So yours is clearly a pathetically inadequate sample.

It's half of what's required for the above accuracy. I don't need
that
much accuracy. Even if I was 20% out, then saying that 50% of people
can
see flicker means that 40% can. 40% is a big enough part of the
population to cater for.

Thanks for that completely superfluous
proof that you don't in fact have a fucking
clue about even the most basic statistics.

If you did, you'd tell me what I did wrong.

Already did.

No, you gave no information,

Just another of your bare faced lies.

you just said "bullshit" etc.

Everyone can see for themselves what I actually said.

If you did, you could repeat it, but since you didn't, you cannot.

If half could actually see car lights flicker, the
designers wouldn't have designed them like that.

Economy.

Doesn't cost anymore to say double the pulse
rate so that even freaks like you can't see it.

I assume the higher switching speed needs better transistors etc.

You're wrong with the rates involved.

Funny how they don't all do it.

Because the designers can't see it and didn’t bother to research
what flicker fusion thresholds are out there with you freaks.

A designer who only designs something to be suitable for himself

They aint doing anything even remotely like that.

is an idiot.

Freaks that demand that everything must be designed
for the most extreme freaks are terminal fuckwits.

Except there are way more people with decent eyesight than you think.

Funny how it's only recently we've had them fast enough to make switch
mode power supplies and smaller coils possible.

Those operate at much higher rates again.

There must be a reason they don't just make them switch very fast,

The ones that you can see flicker don’t switch very fast,
just a bit faster than those that you can see flicker.

So very easy to do then. They should all do it.

perhaps it wears the LED out?

No it does not. The reason is as I stated, the designer didn’t
bother to research what freaks can still see flicker wise.

The data is readily available on google.

If you think I'm a one off....

As mentioned in some of the links, they can actually be quite dangerous and should be banned before loads of people get killed. Only a monumental idiot would make lights that anyone could see as flashing.

In spades with movies in movie theaters. That frame

Not the same thing.

Corse its still flicker for freaks.

It's less visible.

Still visible for freaks.

Why do you persist in calling half the population freaks,

It isnt anything even remotely like half the population.

Yes it is, by simple observation of those around you.

No one else I know sees flicker with car lights.

People can see 2000 per second if they're moving their eyes.

https://theconversation.com/the-scientific-reason-you-dont-like-led-bulbs-and-the-simple-way-to-fix-them-81639

"Scientists used to think we could see no more than about 90 flashes of light a second but now we know it’s more like 2,000 because the eyes move so rapidly when we change gaze from one point to another. During the eye movement, the flicker of light creates a pattern that we can see. And this has some surprising consequences for our health thanks to the way some types of lighting can affect us. In particular, it could discourage people from using more energy-saving LED lightbulbs.

To find out, my colleagues and I asked people to make a saccade across a flickering source of light and to report when they could see a pattern of multiple images of the light during the eye movement. When the light flickered 1,000 times a second the pattern could clearly be seen. At about 3,000 per second, the images became invisible.

In contrast, some LEDs flash only 400 times per second. This flicker is still far too rapid to be seen directly, but some people can see multiple images of the lamps every time they make a saccade, which is unpleasantly distracting. The flickering of these LEDs may limit the uptake of the bulbs, just as many people dislike energy-saving fluorescent lamps.

When you buy an LED bulb, you currently have no way of telling whether or not it will flicker. But there are already standards for LEDs that would limit flicker to acceptable levels. So ensuring these are met could make a big difference to our attempt to make our homes and workplaces more energy efficient."

Don't you ever talk to anyone?

Corse I do and you can see me doing that, fuckwit.

Then I guess you only know those with poor eyesight.

who can all see something you can't?

Because that’s what they are, freaks.

Is a dog a freak because it can smell better than we can?

No, because its only the freaks of dogs that can't.

Ah, so you just accept the majority as being correct.

It isnt about being correct.

So Einstein was a freak

Corse he was, mentally.

because he was one of very few people who was that clever.

Duh.

You would have had him burned at the stake wouldn't you?

If you can't do any better than this mindless
shit I will be flushing your shit where it belongs.

I pointed out that Einstein was cleverer than most, and you said that made him a freak. You lose, big time.

I mean it's not normal to be that clever,

Duh.

there must be something wrong with him, best we get rid of him?

There you go, off in your pathetic little drug
crazed drunken psychotic fantasyland, as always.

Or does it perhaps have the ability to detect what we miss?

Yes they do with sound unless they have gone deaf.
My parents believed that dogs had ESP because they
can work out when one of them is coming home long
before any human can. The answer is trivial, the dog
can hear the family vehicle long before a human can.

Which makes them useful, they can do something we can't.

Which might just be why we use them to sniff out stupid
druggys like you at airports and other places, stupid.

A human who could do the same would be equally useful,

Nothing useful about seeing car lights flickering, fuckwit.

It means they can see reality, not something your brain made up.

yet you'd call them a freak.

I call a freak a freak and drug crazed drunken
psychotics drug crazed drunken psychotics, freak.

You call anyone that can do something you can't a freak. What about someone who can lift twice the weight of someone else his size? Is he a freak or just stronger and more useful? What about someone who can play tennis well because his reactions are twice as fast as yours? Is he a freak too?

LED lights on cars are deliberately pulsed to get more effective
brightness (as far as the human eye is concerned, peak brightness is
what enables you to see better) from the same LEDs with less heat.
But LEDs go completely off between pulses.

And so doubling the pulse rate doesn't cost anymore.

Movie theatres (you mean cinemas,

No I do not.

theatres are for plays, they have a stage,

Movie theaters arent for plays and they don't have stages.

you're talking American)

Wrong, as always.

Cinema = big screen and projector.
Theatre = stage with live actors.

Wrong, as always.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatre

"Theatre or theater[1] is a collaborative form of fine art that uses
live
performers, typically actors or actresses, to present the experience of
a
real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often
a
stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience
through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, and dance.
Elements
of art, such as painted scenery and stagecraft such as lighting are used
to enhance the physicality, presence and immediacy of the experience.[2]
The specific place of the performance is also named by the word
"theatre"
as derived from the Ancient Greek θέατρον (théatron, "a place for
viewing"), itself from θξΏοΟιΚ (theåomai, "to see", "to watch", "to
observe")."

That’s just one type of theater, stupid. Even you
must be aware of operating theaters which have
no stage and no play being performed.

They also have live people in them.

So do plenty of non theaters.

A cinema just plays a film, no people are present.

No one watching the movie at all eh ?

On the fucking stage obviously.

> Completely off with the fucking fairys, as always.

No, you're using US English and that's all there is to it.

UK: Cinema = for films, Theatre = for plays.
US: Movie theatre = for films, Theatre = for plays.

We invented the language, the Americans fucked it up. You're using the wrong one.

Pity about
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatre_(disambiguation)

don't illuminate the screen with LEDs.

Duh. And irrelevant to whether the frame rate was
chosen because most don't see any flicker with it.
Flicker didn't only happen with LEDs, stupid.

They happen more so as they switch on and off instantly.

Wrong, as always.

LEDs switch on ad off faster than any other form of light, that is an
indisputable fact.

Irrelevant to the fact that it isnt how quickly
they switch that matters, it’s the pulse RATE
that determines how visible the flicker is.

Bullshit. Consider a variable duty cycle.

That isnt the reason some car lights
flicker for you and others don’t.

I haven't finished yet, read the next line.

As that approaches 1, there's no flicker. Clearly LEDs have a much lower
duty cycle than that.

LCD screens don’t.

They aren't LEDs.

A decent phosphor coating on a CRT will have a duty cycle of say 0.8 to
0.9,

CRTs don’t have a duty cycle.

Of course they fucking do! Show a white screen on a CRT. Put the image onto a scope using a light detector. The light obviously comes on full brightness on each scan, then must drift off dimmer ready for the next frame.

which will be much harder to see flickering.

Wrong, as always.

Are you being deliberately obtuse or are you just fucking thick?
A duty cycle of 0.1 will flicker more than a duty cycle of 0.9!

Why do you think Panasonic made a 100Hz TV?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and are free to pay more
for
something faster.

Being able to detect something you can't makes them better than you.

Even sillier than you usually manage and that's saying
something. Much worse in fact when car lights flicker.

Perhaps you should ditch your sense of smell, because smelling things
you
don't like is annoying.

There is nothing that I find annoying about any
smell except a big rotting animal corpse in hot
weather and that's so rare that it just isnt a problem.

Being able to detect (and being annoyed about) something that smells bad
is a good thing.

Wrong, as always, particularly with stuff like paint etc.

Paint doesn't smell bad.

Wrong, as always.

Most people consider biological smells, like dog shit, to be repulsive. But they consider artificial smells, like marker pens, nice.

Bad smells mean something is harmful, like shit.

Shit isnt harmful when you are just smelling it.

It warns you not to eat it. When you go to take a bite of food, if it smells bad, you don't put it in your mouth as it's probably gone off.

And durians smell awful but are fine to eat.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian

The plant is most likely trying to put animals off eating it.

It makes you want to get rid of it.

No need to get rid of an animal corpse.

Disease.

Just another of your pathetic little drug
crazed drunken pig ignorant fantasys.

So you think it's ok to have dead bodies lying around your house? You're getting worse Rod. Have you got dementia?

And a damned nuisance with fresh paint etc.

I poison mice because its more convenient to
do that than to fart around with traps and never
have a problem with any smell from dead ones.

More fun to trap them and watch them slowly die.

Only for psychopaths.

Mice are vermin,

Some have them as pets.

Some people keep spiders as pets ffs.

why would you care about them?

I don’t, I poison them. But I'm not a psychopath so I don’t
catch them and get off on watching them die slowly.

Either you care about them or you don't.

Anyway you have no problem killing them, yet you won't torture them first?

Because I am not a psychopath.

Death is 1 billion times worse than torture.

Irrelevant to whether only a psychopath gets off
on catching mice and watching them die slowly.

Anyone with any sense knows that killing it is 1 billion times worse, so the torture doesn't matter.

I'd much rather you tortured me then let me live, than kill me instantly.

Doesn’t matter what some psychopath would rather.

Nevermind the advantage of smell....

Why do you think Iiyama made 90Hz monitors?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and
are free to pay more for something faster.

High frequency monitors were very popular.

Not because many ever saw any flicker.

There would be no other reason.

Wrong, as always.

State the other reason then.

Already did.

I'm still waiting....

And it was proven that low frequency ones cause headaches and eye
damage
for people using them all day in offices.

Bullshit.

No it isn't.

Corse it is.

Go do some research

Did that before you were even born thanks. NO ONE
ever got any eye damage from lower frequency monitors.

https://www.webmd.com/eye-health/computer-vision-syndrome

Just because some fuckwit claims something...

Actually many many people. It's damn easy to find thousands of references that support my claims. Just admit you're wrong.

and stop yourself being so utterly clueless.

You're the one with that problem, as always.

At my first place of work it was actually one of the regulations that
anyone could request a higher frequency monitor if they believed it was
annoying or giving them headaches.

That operation actually was that stupid ? Irrelevant
to your stupid pig ignorant claim about eye damage.

Funny how the better monitors took the headaches away.

Funny how no one ever got any eye damage with the standard ones.

You don't need eye damage to give you a headache.

for the most extreme freaks are terminal fuckwits.

Except there are way more people with decent eyesight than you think.

Easy to claim.

Funny how it's only recently we've had them fast enough to make switch
mode power supplies and smaller coils possible.

Those operate at much higher rates again.

There must be a reason they don't just make them switch very fast,

The ones that you can see flicker don’t switch very fast,
just a bit faster than those that you can see flicker.

So very easy to do then. They should all do it.

You get no say on what they get to do.

perhaps it wears the LED out?

No it does not. The reason is as I stated, the designer didn’t
bother to research what freaks can still see flicker wise.

The data is readily available on google.

Irrelevant to the fact that the worst designers didn’t bother.

If you think I'm a one off....

That’s bullshit. If they actually were, the car standards would ban them.

Loads of people arent killed by them.

Only a monumental idiot would make lights that anyone could see as
flashing.

They don’t realise that a few freaks see them flashing.

In spades with movies in movie theaters. That frame
rate was chosen because most couldn't see that flicker.

Not the same thing.

Corse its still flicker for freaks.

It's less visible.

Still visible for freaks.

Why do you persist in calling half the population freaks,

It isnt anything even remotely like half the population.

Yes it is, by simple observation of those around you.

No one else I know sees flicker with car lights.

People can see 2000 per second if they're moving their eyes.

Clearly not a big enough problem to see it mandated with car lights.

https://theconversation.com/the-scientific-reason-you-dont-like-led-bulbs-and-the-simple-way-to-fix-them-81639

"Scientists used to think we could see no more than about 90 flashes of
light a second but now we know it’s more like 2,000 because the eyes move
so rapidly when we change gaze from one point to another. During the eye
movement, the flicker of light creates a pattern that we can see. And this
has some surprising consequences for our health thanks to the way some
types of lighting can affect us. In particular, it could discourage people
from using more energy-saving LED lightbulbs.

Hardly the end of civilisation as we know it.

To find out, my colleagues and I asked people to make a saccade across a
flickering source of light and to report when they could see a pattern of
multiple images of the light during the eye movement. When the light
flickered 1,000 times a second the pattern could clearly be seen. At about
3,000 per second, the images became invisible.

In contrast, some LEDs flash only 400 times per second. This flicker is
still far too rapid to be seen directly, but some people can see multiple
images of the lamps every time they make a saccade, which is unpleasantly
distracting.

They are free to buy ones that don’t have that effect.

The flickering of these LEDs may limit the uptake of the bulbs, just as
many people dislike energy-saving fluorescent lamps.

Hardly the end of civilisation as we know it.

When you buy an LED bulb, you currently have no way of telling whether or
not it will flicker.

Don’t need to when you buy them from an operation
like Aldi which is happy to do a full return if you
decide you don’t like it when you try it.

But there are already standards for LEDs that would limit flicker to
acceptable levels. So ensuring these are met could make a big difference
to our attempt to make our homes and workplaces more energy efficient."

Depends on how may find they don’t like that effect.

Don't you ever talk to anyone?

Corse I do and you can see me doing that, fuckwit.

Then I guess you only know those with poor eyesight.

Nothing poor about eyesight that doesn’t see car lights flicker.

who can all see something you can't?

Because that’s what they are, freaks.

Is a dog a freak because it can smell better than we can?

No, because its only the freaks of dogs that can't.

Ah, so you just accept the majority as being correct.

It isnt about being correct.

So Einstein was a freak

Corse he was, mentally.

because he was one of very few people who was that clever.

Duh.

You would have had him burned at the stake wouldn't you?

If you can't do any better than this mindless
shit I will be flushing your shit where it belongs.

I pointed out that Einstein was cleverer than most, and you said that made
him a freak.

Corse it does.

And then you went on with that shit about burning him at
the stake and shit like that will be flushed where it belongs.

> You lose, big time.

Only in your pathetic little drug crazed drunken psychotic fantasyland.

I mean it's not normal to be that clever,

Duh.

there must be something wrong with him, best we get rid of him?

There you go, off in your pathetic little drug
crazed drunken psychotic fantasyland, as always.

Or does it perhaps have the ability to detect what we miss?

Yes they do with sound unless they have gone deaf.
My parents believed that dogs had ESP because they
can work out when one of them is coming home long
before any human can. The answer is trivial, the dog
can hear the family vehicle long before a human can.

Which makes them useful, they can do something we can't.

Which might just be why we use them to sniff out stupid
druggys like you at airports and other places, stupid.

A human who could do the same would be equally useful,

Nothing useful about seeing car lights flickering, fuckwit.

It means they can see reality, not something your brain made up.

But they don’t when the flash rate is higher.

yet you'd call them a freak.

I call a freak a freak and drug crazed drunken
psychotics drug crazed drunken psychotics, freak.

You call anyone that can do something you can't a freak.

Just another of your bare faced lies/pathetic excuses for a troll.

What about someone who can lift twice the weight of someone else his size?
Is he a freak

Corse he is.

> or just stronger and more useful?

Or both. But there is nothing useful about
the freaks who see car lights flickering.

What about someone who can play tennis well because his reactions are
twice as fast as yours? Is he a freak too?

Nothing to do with my reactions, what matters is how common
that is in the general population. Of course someone who is only
say 1% of the population is a freak. He may or may not be a useful
freak. Einstein obviously was, but someone who sees car light
flickering clearly isnt a useful freak and is in fact a useless freak.

LED lights on cars are deliberately pulsed to get more effective
brightness (as far as the human eye is concerned, peak brightness
is
what enables you to see better) from the same LEDs with less heat.
But LEDs go completely off between pulses.

And so doubling the pulse rate doesn't cost anymore.

Movie theatres (you mean cinemas,

No I do not.

theatres are for plays, they have a stage,

Movie theaters arent for plays and they don't have stages.

you're talking American)

Wrong, as always.

Cinema = big screen and projector.
Theatre = stage with live actors.

Wrong, as always.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatre

"Theatre or theater[1] is a collaborative form of fine art that uses
live
performers, typically actors or actresses, to present the experience
of
a
real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place,
often
a
stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience
through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, and dance.
Elements
of art, such as painted scenery and stagecraft such as lighting are
used
to enhance the physicality, presence and immediacy of the
experience.[2]
The specific place of the performance is also named by the word
"theatre"
as derived from the Ancient Greek θέατρον (théatron, "a place for
viewing"), itself from θξΏοΟιΚ (theåomai, "to see", "to watch", "to
observe")."

That’s just one type of theater, stupid. Even you
must be aware of operating theaters which have
no stage and no play being performed.

They also have live people in them.

So do plenty of non theaters.

A cinema just plays a film, no people are present.

No one watching the movie at all eh ?

On the fucking stage obviously.

Completely off with the fucking fairys, as always.

No, you're using US English and that's all there is to it.

UK: Cinema = for films, Theatre = for plays.
US: Movie theatre = for films, Theatre = for plays.

We invented the language,

Wrong, as always. Most of it you clowns stole from wherever.

> the Americans fucked it up.

Even more of a pathetic excuse for a troll than you usually manage.

Even a terminal fuckwit such as yourself uses stuff they added
like ok, airport, TV. sitcom, soup for some TV series etc etc etc.

> You're using the wrong one.

You are wrong, as always.

Pity about
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theatre_(disambiguation)

don't illuminate the screen with LEDs.

Duh. And irrelevant to whether the frame rate was
chosen because most don't see any flicker with it.
Flicker didn't only happen with LEDs, stupid.

They happen more so as they switch on and off instantly.

Wrong, as always.

LEDs switch on ad off faster than any other form of light, that is an
indisputable fact.

Irrelevant to the fact that it isnt how quickly
they switch that matters, it’s the pulse RATE
that determines how visible the flicker is.

Bullshit. Consider a variable duty cycle.

That isnt the reason some car lights
flicker for you and others don’t.

I haven't finished yet, read the next line.

Get fucked, again.

As that approaches 1, there's no flicker. Clearly LEDs have a much
lower duty cycle than that.

LCD screens don’t.

They aren't LEDs.

A decent phosphor coating on a CRT will have a duty cycle of say 0.8 to
0.9,

CRTs don’t have a duty cycle.

Of course they fucking do!

No they don’t. The phosphor brightness decays, there is no duty cycle.

Show a white screen on a CRT. Put the image onto a scope using a light
detector. The light obviously comes on full brightness on each scan, then
must drift off dimmer ready for the next frame.

That isnt duty cycle, that’s decay.

And there isnt even any decay with LCDs.

which will be much harder to see flickering.

Wrong, as always.

Are you being deliberately obtuse or are you just fucking thick?
A duty cycle of 0.1 will flicker more than a duty cycle of 0.9!

There is no duty cycle with CRTs.

Why do you think Panasonic made a 100Hz TV?

Because some freaks can see flicker at 50Hz and are free to pay
more
for
something faster.

Being able to detect something you can't makes them better than you.

Even sillier than you usually manage and that's saying
something. Much worse in fact when car lights flicker.

Perhaps you should ditch your sense of smell, because smelling
things
you
don't like is annoying.

There is nothing that I find annoying about any
smell except a big rotting animal corpse in hot
weather and that's so rare that it just isnt a problem.

Being able to detect (and being annoyed about) something that smells
bad
is a good thing.

Wrong, as always, particularly with stuff like paint etc.

Paint doesn't smell bad.

Wrong, as always.

Most people consider biological smells, like dog shit, to be repulsive.

Not repulsive so much as better when its not there.

> But they consider artificial smells, like marker pens, nice.

Now try that with chlorine or even just bleach.

Bad smells mean something is harmful, like shit.

Shit isnt harmful when you are just smelling it.

It warns you not to eat it.

Pity about durians.

When you go to take a bite of food, if it smells bad, you don't put it in
your mouth as it's probably gone off.

Pity about durians.

And durians smell awful but are fine to eat.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian

The plant is most likely trying to put animals off eating it.

Wrong, as always.

It makes you want to get rid of it.

No need to get rid of an animal corpse.

Disease.

Just another of your pathetic little drug
crazed drunken pig ignorant fantasys.

So you think it's ok to have dead bodies lying around your house?

Irrelevant to whether there is any disease involved.

Anyone with any sense knows that killing it is 1 billion times worse, so
the torture doesn't matter.

Only a psychopath gets off on catching
mice and watching them die slowly.

I kill them the least effort way and that’s by putting
out poison and adding more if its consumed.

If half could actually see car lights flicker, the

Economy.

Doesn't cost anymore to say double the pulse
rate so that even freaks like you can't see it.

I assume the higher switching speed needs better transistors etc.

You're wrong with the rates involved.

Funny how they don't all do it.

Because the designers can't see it and didn’t bother to research
what flicker fusion thresholds are out there with you freaks.

A designer who only designs something to be suitable for himself

They aint doing anything even remotely like that.

is an idiot.

Freaks that demand that everything must be designed
for the most extreme freaks are terminal fuckwits.

"Human vision is adversely affected by light fluctuations at frequencies
up to 200 Hz, even though people can only directly perceive fluctuations
at frequencies up to about 70 Hz.

You're free to only buy what you like to use.

And you're free to be ignorant and believe that only a very small number of people are affected.

However, I'm not free to make everyone else's car have decent lighting. I have to put up with inferior shit by designers without a fucking clue how the human eye works.

The fundamentals of the sensitivity of the human eye to rapidly changing
light (transient light artifacts or TLAs) as a function of frequency have
been well known to science for a decade or more. Despite this, the
lighting industry has so far limited itself to only characterizing light
sources over the range of frequencies which the human eye can perceive
directly. This range is below 100 Hz. However, it is well documented that
human visual performance is degraded by the presence of light fluctuations
at frequencies in the range from 100 to 200 Hz. Here we will describe a
new flicker metric/tool that includes consideration of higher frequencies
and further discuss an AC-LED light engine relative to performance against
the new metric."
