Sure, the whole world is on fire right now, but there are also little things to be upset about. ☝😉

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The comments show it's not the color, but the intensity. Any color too bright is going to be annoying. I've got some monitors that have the perfect level for their power and controls, it's just enough to be able to see in daylight, and not at all in the face in the dark. There's no reason to have HID lights on electronic indicators (or on automobiles, but that's a different topic).
It’s the very colour we’re not supposed to see at night though, if we want to sleep.
Sleep studies have found that even the standby light on a TV impacts sleep negatively.
Blue is percieved as brighter by the human eye at the same luminosity of other colors.
Also eyelids don't block as much of it, so can still perceive blue lights with your eyes closed.
Also blue LEDs tend to be more efficient and higher luminosity...
Some electronic devices let you dim the status LEDs in the settings, e.g. for Fritz!Box routers.
