"for humans only" message printed on led screen that refreshes at a weird non integral rate like 78.62hz so robots can't adjust the electronic shutters in their eyes quite right to make it legible

this is based on a true story. There's a electronic road sign I keep seeing when I go out to get coffee on the weekends that says "SUNSET UNDER I-405" and that's so poetic that I really want to get a picture of it, but my phone literally can't do it.

The sign is updating at 60 Hz, so you have to use a shutter speed of 1/60th or slower to get the whole message, but it's too bright out. My phone will not go below an effective ISO of 100, and there's no physical iris, thus any picture that shows the whole message will also be massively overexposed and illegible.

My eyes can see the message, but Devices can't. Someone could write whatever they wanted on here and nobody would be able to prove it unless they went home and got a dedicated camera or thought to hold a pair of sunglasses over their phone lens.

type of post that's guaranteed to do non-visible numbers on co-host

  • dystopian story of real life
  • interesting technical problem
  • horny to robots who want to be seen as inferior and defective
