Just did, could feel it in the back of my eyes.

I have tried changing my main program screen to black and white instead of yellow and black. I think this is helping a little.

Does anyone have jealous coworkers?


I've always thought that my car isn't that great (just a 3er), but I have people coming up to me every day with some stupid comment....

75 will not give you the headache from flickering, which is imperceptible to your concious eyes, but there and troubling to your senses and hence gives the headache.

Ever see a computer screen on the TV news and notice the lines scrolling down the screen? That's the unphased refresh rate showing up on your 24 frames/sec (24Hz) camera recording.

People love my e92 335i, I always gratiously say thank you when they make a nice comment, its nice to get sometimes. I had two guys in business suits and a G35 watch me go buy them, the passenger pointed at me and then started talking to his buddy, the guys then followed for a while. Was pretty cool having someone take so much notice of your car, kinda like an added perk to the fun of unleashing the beast that lies beneath the exterior

I meant bringing my laptop. I work for a BMW dealer, the 3 is pretty common here. But when I bring it in the shop, thats an entire other story. I never hear the end of it, hey parker whats your car doing in the shop? Why are you doing this? Whats wrong with your other wheels?? I even get questions when its not my car just another black E90 with blacklines. It gets annoying.
