it just gets darkerThe difference is that if you look at an Eclipse you can damage your eyes.
it gets dark every single day, this isn't really any different

then don't look at it
if they can avoid looking at the sun itself in general, they can avoid looking at the sun hiding behind something
Usually, when people avoid looking at the sun, it's because it's uncomfortably bright and they feel compelled to look away/shield their eyes somehow. When the sun's partially eclipsed, though, it's not bright enough to trigger that reflex (but still bright enough to cause damage), so looking away/shielding eyes has to be a conscious decision.This is why I'm only going to look at it for one or two seconds with my naked eyes. I'm also going to record it with my digital camera in 2160p while only looking at the touch screen to make sure the lens is properly directed at the eclipse. I will rotate the screen upward so that I have to look down in order to see it. I'm not taking any chances. Two seconds max is enough to burn the image in my memory, but not enough to burn my eyes. I know it's safe because I can look at the sun for longer than that before I have the reflex to look away. I do have a light stain on my eyes for several minutes after that though. I'll be aiming for a single second, but I'll probably overshoot it. I'll look at the other stars with my naked eyes for much longer than that, but I'll make sure to turn my back away from the sun first.
Of course, it's not particularly hard to make that conscious decision, even if you're in the middle of something else.
Incarcerated people in New York will get to see eclipse after settling lawsuitI love how the lawsuit states religious convictions when some clients are atheists. But seriously, they should let everyone watch it with protected eye wear. It's also a rare event where everyone can be expected to behave. No one is dumb enough to ruin a rare event for every other prisoners. Any idiot who does that is putting his/her life at risk. I even expect enemy gangs to hold a truce in order to watch it in peace. It's like movie nights, but significantly rarer.
