I hate all LED headlights. Absolute blight on mankind.

Even normal headlights feel like highbeams to me yo, staring into the sun seems less painful in comparison

Driving a sedan at night is agony in the age of SUVs and trucks with LED headlights

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

So take that agony then imagine having more than half your year in darkness and you'll have the Alaskan experience in a nutshell.

Someone should make Hövding but as a bomb vest that activates when getting hit by a car

blows my head off, directly though the windscreen onto the drivers lap where i can make horrifying eye contact as by brain juice leaks out of me over their birkenstocks

[-] shath@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

in hindsight i should've got the 6000 lumen one for fun

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 month ago

It's ok, just adjust it up or down depending on how bright incoming traffic is. It'll have the same effect.

Good on ya!

I’m thankful that my car’s model still has aftermarket bulbs that aren’t retina-piercers. Good luck with your suicide lumens.

Carbrains have no rights

What about other cyclists? I’ve been blinded more often by cyclists who don’t turn their light slightly downwards than by cars

[-] shath@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

turn it downwards
