Wow that’s ridiculous.
Makes me think of how it’s nuts that women are forced to wear skirts in tennis still.

I remember reading a book about this hacker student kid that would do that to sneak out of the school because they had gait recognition cameras. Can’t remember the name of the book though…
Yeah I’m really starting to regret making my Lemmy account with this server. At the time it was just the biggest one and I didn’t know anything about the type of communities they hosted. I tend to stay out of politics, I’m just here for the funny memes man
My dad was recently telling me that (in the USA) headlights were regulated to something like 130 watts (or amps, idk. It was something about the amount of power used by the bulbs). This was back when halogen bulbs were used for headlights, and there was an effort to try and pump the most amount of brightness out of them while staying within the power limits.
Then LED became more and more common and that power limit was basically a nonissue. Manufacturers could then turn up the brightness as much as they wanted and that’s why headlights are such a problem now
