...could someone please tell me at what point during a solar eclipse more light reaches the viewer and the light intensity increases compared to any other day when the sun is not eclipsed? Just checking because a lot of these comments lack a basic understanding of what's happening during a solar eclipse.
I seriously doubt it, but if so it certainly had nothing to do with the eclipse. The moon would have protected the telescope from more extensive damage caused by the full output of the sun. Pointing a telescope at a non-eclipsed sun on any other day, is far more damaging than pointing it at an eclipsed sun where the moon is shielding the telescope from ~95% of the light.
People don't blink when they look at the full sun either. An eclipse is dangerous because the darkness dilates the pupils and allows the viewer to look at the normally bright, but reduced output, eclipsed sun without any natural response of the iris.
Hell, we don't even have to investigate. An election has never been hacked, and cases of attacks are so few and far between that it doesn't make sense to even try to figure out how often this happens.

Yes, but they are still far lower than they would be from an unobstructed sun.
If more light is reaching the viewer just before and after totality, why is it so dark outside relative to a normal sun?

Well then, it's a good thing that the moon shields the earth from most of the UV radiation emitted by the sun during a solar eclipse.
That's way overkill for a pinhole viewer. I just use my fingers.
Doesn't like 90% less uv and ir radiation strike the earth during a full solar eclipse?

I think your comment is stupid but incredibly funny.
No, it's not sexist. It's physiology. Science, even.
The military exists to kill people.
That's right. Because men are better a killing people.
Draw yourself a Venn diagram with cis people and trans people in the military.
You do not have to suspect it. He overruled their objections and recommendations.
Why should we allow people taking hormones that make themselves physically weaker and emotionally more vulnerable to fight in the military?
Do you see men weakened by estrogen therapy or women limited by their physiology as threatening?
Here's something that may not have occurred to you. There are people that actually like playing football. Some of them are even intelligent.
No. We can only create a rough approximation of a penis. It would fool no one.
By definition a "film" is a one off. And as soon as it makes it onto the internet, rare is an oxymoron.
Is 9$ of economic damage worth 1$ of bike path construction? Maybe to a left-wing ideologue.
No, it's me, a generic Democrat who thinks we don't have to investigate anything involving election fraud, unless it hurts one of our candidates.

I understand. I think the lack of due process is a bigger issue, since gag orders aren't that uncommon.

It seems the 5th amendment would be much more applicable.
