Yeah, I should have said that there is no basis for the executive branch moving elections under any circumstances (including any precedent or statute for cancelling elections under the Insurrection Act).
At some point that doesn’t matter, though. The constitution is just ink on parchment at the end of the day.
It’s the ratio of screen size to distance from the screen. But typically you sit further from larger screens, so there’s an optimization problem in there somewhere.
The danger is honestly pretty minimal for people who are aware they have photosensitive epilepsy; those who are prone to it but unaware of it are not likely to heed warnings even where they exist since they won’t typically perceive the risk until after experiencing it.
It takes several minutes from triggering exposure to actual seizure onset, so those who know of their susceptibility have time to stop exposure and make sure they’re in a safe position if a seizure does come. There are many ways of mitigating the seizure risk by stopping exposure, closing one eye and facing away from the light source, keeping screen brightness at the lowest level you can still easily read, etc.
That’s not to say I think warnings aren’t useful, but the intensity of many of the warnings people use is disproportionate to the actual risk and can cause people to be much more worried than necessary IMO. Google et al really need to stop messing with videos and such via AI without any sort of notice or warning for a whole host of reasons, including broader non-epileptic photosensitive since becoming intensely nauseous or getting a migraine over it is still pretty annoying.
tl;dr I think the warnings are a good idea, but maybe a little broader and less “OMG the epileptics are gonna all die”. And fuck companies silently manipulating content they didn’t even produce with AI in general.
One of them did, though! Irene Joliot-Curie got the 1935 Nobel Prize for Chemistry.
Her father in law lived with them after his wife died shortly after her first daughter was born. He acted as babysitter when Marie was working. They also hired a servant to take care of most housework and cooking.
FWIW, photosensitive epilepsy is typically only triggered at flash rates between 3-30 hertz. The rate of flashing shown is extremely unlikely to cause seizures even in generally susceptible individuals.
There is no constitutional basis for moving the date of elections under any circumstances. Elections went on as normal during the Civil War and WWII, there’s absolutely no legal, constitutional or moral excuse for cancelling or delaying them.
Not that I’m aware of, unfortunately. They seem to be trying to pretend they aren’t even doing it, so telling us why they obviously are modifying content doesn’t seem likely until they’re backed in to a corner by popular outrage.
