One guy even has sunglasses, like there's no way he can see anything
Maybe it's polarized glass, so it takes more away of the sunlight than the display light. He can't tilt his head too much though.
Polarized glasses and a low refresh rate is a recipe for a good beach vomiting
Why? Does polarization affect motion sickness?
I've had polarized lenses reveal multi colored scan lines between black spaces that can be a tad disorienting
Color splitting effects (i.e. like a prism) can be caused by unpolarized lenses as well.
Not exactly sure what you mean by multi colored scan lines or black spaces here, tbh.
some people get sick looking at screens?
Uh, polarized glasses cancel out a lot of displays. It's why pilot glasses aren't.
Depending on the display xor glasses polarization orientation you need to tilt your head by up to 90° of course.
