  • The problem is that incandescent lights are 1) warmer in tone, which is less harsh for the same candle ratings, 2) have a more gradual boundary than LED projector-style headlights, which means you aren’t suddenly blinded when the car coming towards you goes over a minor bump, and 3) aren’t a point light-source with the reflector design they have unlike LEDs, and thus are less painful. NONE of these issues are dealt with in a vast majority of new cars (adaptive-angle headlamps would do a lot to help, but would only fix one of the three issues - and only when the camera can actually figure out when they should be lowering the angle, which is far from foolproof).

    If I could easily replace the LED headlamp in my new car with an incandescent lamp, I would - because I could still see decently with my old car’s headlights, and I wasn’t at risk of blinding everyone in the oncoming lane next to me.


  • Oh, it’s completely the fault of the voters. It’s also the fault of the DNC’s messaging. The crappy economy (job markets and inflation/unchecked price gouging) meant that the uninformed were just voting for “Not the Party that’s Currently In Power” because the cost of groceries and rent was outstripping their paychecks, and the messaging coming from the DNC was completely tangential to that.

    Regular everyday Joes don’t follow politics. Just because we do doesn’t make us representative of the general population. That sort of thinking is what made Trump’s victory a surprise - both times.
