Comment Re:F.Lux helps with that on monitors! (Score 1) 52

I second this. Personally I use Redshift to accomplish the same thing on my PCs, and the simpler Nightfilter on Android (although the latter doesn't automatically adjust based on your latitude and time of day).

The difference between "night" and day mode is, well, night and day. When I turn if off late at night my eyeballs scream and then heave a sigh of relief when I re-engage it.

I have another solution that has worked well in some places:

3. Include high-capacity batteries with standard solar installations and put them between the panels and the Grid Tie Inverter. That way far less power is put back into the grid (which yields pitiful if any financial returns in many districts) and the home user get to use solar power at night.

Comment Re:The "Right Stuff" was a myth of the Cold War (Score 1) 137

If you think the ISS isn't a "real space station" you should probably put down the Babylon 5 DVD and come visit the real world.

I have no idea what the OP was talking about there either, but perhaps he was taking issue with the ISS being in close proximity to Earth. So close in fact that Earth's gravity at the ISS is nearly 90% of that at sea level - it's only the freefall orbital velocity that gives the effect of zero-g.

Not that makes it any less a space station in my book. Just not a Deep Space station perhaps...

Just view the word Muslim like Nazi and then it becomes clear. The constant banging of the drums against muslim/islamic terrorists seems to cause people's mind to shut down as they now are being painted as the universal bad guy.

Well... yes.

Do you perhaps have another explanation for what we are seeing?

Kindly share it with us.
