    These aren't the automatic brightness kind. Rather, every three minutes or so, the screen will briefly go to maximum brightness and then almost immediately back to normal again. It's not a flicker - it changes gradually, like a deliberate software thing. But I've disabled automatic brightness in the Intel settings, I've disabled the sensor service, and I've disabled it in the power saving settings too.
