Well I found it interesting ?
Possibly the frame you took a screenshot of was due to this:


Sometimes it appears that an LED bulb, when viewed through a camera lens, flicks rapidly at regular intervals as if it is turning on and off.

LED bulbs are turning on and off, the flickering on video becomes more pronounced and obvious because the camera’s recording frames per second is unaligned with the frequency of electricity. This is called the ‘strobe effect’.

That's what I thought at first too, but its a video clip. It doesn't seem to be a led flickering problem. I'm curious as well...

I just looked at the video clip, and you're right... there is a full three seconds with it out, and no other flickering. Must be an option. Makes sense as not to blind fellow campers on the trails.

I hate auto wipers. I either use rainX or ceramic coat if long term vehicle. Neither needs wipers really at all. Even in the harshest conditions. I live in FL and have driven through some serious rain and not even need wipers with those option. When the auto wipers come on drives me crazy.
? I have a buddy that’s like that. It’s like he has OCD for repetitious sound, not to mention the constant flutter of a wiper in his face. All he sees is the wiper and not the road.
I remember being a passenger in his truck and it was pouring, I mean hard rain, and he has his wipers set at maximum dwell. I almost soil my pants as I couldn’t see a thing. Drives him crazy too. ?

Or as @DuckTruck would call it: "CDO, which is OCD but in the correct alfabetical order"

Someone with OCD(or CDO) would also likely be driven crazy by the use of an incorrect 'alphabet'...

godfodder0901,

As I was spellchecking my reply to Babbuino (which follows your response), I caught your previous reply. It brought a smile to my face. One that is above and beyond my now "Permagrin":

Congrats! You beat me to it! Regardless, here it is:

"Not to be anal, but the correct spelling is 'alphabetical'. The combination of CDO and Tourette's has led me to leading the life of a hermit...."

Holiday dinners can be awkward when that combination is triggered.

"Hey, Duck, pass me the peas, why don't cha!"....."Aahhh!!! YOU $#!+-$N!F!#@ B&[%€$(K€R!!!!"

Yeah, the Holidays can be kinda isolating....

I’m the same at holiday dinners, but haven’t been formally diagnosed with Tourette’s… ?

I just tell them I had to self-diagnose because not one Dr. would see me a second time. ?

Same. And the 4 browsers I have on my laptop. Lol.

Wonder if they'll get enabled overnight.
