you should not see any blue light at night. you SHOULD see it during the day. daylight is primarily blue light.
quantum dot TVs ( what i suggest for use as monitors ) have balanced profile:
cheap LEDs have ugly spectrum but overall same percentage of blue light as any white light:
only incandescent lights are low in blue light:
the scientifically correct approach is therefore to not have any light except incandescent after sunset. however DURING THE DAY staring into a giant ultra-bright computer screen is basically the same as being outside. except that when you're outside the blue light is about 1,000 times more powerful.
YES I HAVE A FUCKING METER AND I MEASURED EVERY TV AND BOUGHT THE BRIGHTEST ONE ( $10,000 MSRP Sony that i had to drive 50 miles just to see in person ) AND IT WAS STILL NOT EVEN 1% THE BRIGHTNESS I MEASURED OUTSIDE
i had 2 year warranty on the TV and after 2.5 years it died and i was told it cannot be repaired except by replacing the 8K panel at which point it makes more sense to just get a new TV, but i won't be getting one until i move to another place because i am afraid of damaging it in transport. also won't be getting a Sony again. it was supposed to be the most reliable brand but that was not my experience. back to Samsung.
i used to recommend 75" 8K sony for computer monitors but now my recommendation is 85" 8K samsung.
it's great that people are trying to think but you have to be realistic and understand that it only works when i do it !
but i still encourage all my frens to try even though it is futile !
Not looking into a blue light display at night is exactly the reason why I’m reading my books on that Daylight Computer. I can just read until I notice I ged tired and then instantly fall asleep. Never happened with my Kindle or Android tablets I read with previously.
I could opt for printed books and use an incadescent reading lamp or something but then I couldn’t read out of print books that only live on archive.org, my expenses would go way up and I couldn’t just send lengthy texts I encounter throughout the day to the device for later reading (or discarding, since some it turns out to crap).
I don’t necessarily want to do all my work outside. I prefer being on a bicycle, gardening or just walking outside for the fun of it. But a device that doesn’t screw with my circadian rhythm and is perfectly legible outside? Not gonna skip that, especially since it makes it so much easier to just read more. Before it was more of a chore, now it’s just fun.
