Ability to sense things correlates with intelligence. Dumb people probably don't see the flicker, they just see it as a slightly dimmer but continuous light.

Back when CRT monitors were normal I would walk around and change people's resolution to something reasonable, instead of the Windows default of 60 Hz. They had no idea that anything was wrong, and only half of them noticed an improvement.

That was my pet peeve back then. It had to be at least 72 Hz, which was far better than 60. It's the same people who argue with me that the DVD or streaming movie looks just as good as the Blu-ray. Uh, no.

It looks exactly the same when I don't want to buy YET ANOTHER tv and shiny disc spinner. Exactly the fucking same, got it?

Fuck that. I own all my media physically. I don't need some jew turning that shit off or sneaking in globohomo edits.

Yeah, I increased the screen flicker rate on a guy's monitor from 60 Hz and his headaches immediately stopped. He was so grateful.

This explains why CRTS drove me crazy. And I don't consider myself particularly intelligent.
