Yeah I ended up with moldable ones that you squish in and they shape themselves to your ear, then stay soft until you remove them. Tried a few different designs and these worked best for me. It's so nice being able to sleep in near silence!
I'd heard great things about loop, but they just aren't right for my ear shape unfortunately.
Most uncomfortable earplugs I've ever used lol.
Glad you're getting on well with them :)
Just shows how different everyone's ears are.
I'll be honest here, I really couldn't care less what you say anymore, you thought you could correct someone online and feel superior, it didn't pan out, and when you realised you'd misinterpreted everything from the start, you doubled down for the sake of pride.
It's cute, I feel for you, but the link you provided was totally irrelevant to the point being made, and you're now starting to look like a bit of a fool.
No-one cares.
No-one is going to read this far into our argument.
You can feel like your setting the record straight on a public forum if you want, but you were wrong from the start and literally no-one cares. No-one.
This is purely about your own ego and the need for you to be right.
It's OK, I'll admit defeat, you're right. You were right the whole time, I didn't even know the point I was making, but you did. Now run along.
I'm not gonna waste any more of my time arguing with someone that is straight-up dishonest.
I've tried to meet you in the middle when I said you had misinterpreted me but I could've been clearer, I've also brought the conversation to an end multiple times, but you keep telling me I'm wrong, despite the fact that YOU misinterpreted me from the start.
You're absolutely full of shit, acting like you won't waste anymore of your time. You're determined that there's no possible way you could be wrong, and you can't drop it, or you would've stopped when I stopped any of those previous times.
You should maybe speak to someone about your need to be right over people, because it seems clear you have something going on there that needs addressing.
Yeeeah, I'll be honest, I've lost interest in this conversation a long time ago, you're adamant that you're right, even to the point of telling me what I meant when you misinterpreted it.
So yep fine, you must be right, I must be wrong.
Have a fantastic day in full knowledge that I completely, wholeheartedly agree with everything that you've said, and take back everything that I've said.
Gray on white, regardless of shade, is infinitely better than black on white. Atan said so.
Sounds like you've already answered your own question.
It might die. If it does, it's not a super big deal. You have backups. You don't like creating unnecessary e-waste.
As gets have said, crystal disk info can help detect any existing problems, but it can't predict the future if something happens suddenly. So it can be a good indicator, but don't assume it's 100%.
Yep, that's right, you drew false conclusions from the start, in that I was referring to the same shade of gray as in the study; which, incidentally, was far more focused on light background & dark text vs dark background & light text, than it was black text vs gray text, so it wasn't even really relevant to begin with.
Glad we finally agree!
I mean, I wasn't mistaken, you drew false conclusions from what I said from the offset, then dug your heals in when I made it crystal clear what was meant, time and time again. Anyway.
It feels like we're arguing semantics for the sake of it, you're entitled to your opinion, as am I. You misinterpreted what I meant from the start, maybe I could have been more explicit. Whatever the case, have a good evening.
I don't disagree about the overuse of light grey/white, but it's really irrelevant to what I said.
My entire point from the very start, the point that you're replying to, was about the differences in shades of gray, be that from calibration or design choice lol.
If a screen is so badly calibrated that dark grey is coming out substantially lighter then it's probably going to doing something similar to black.
From my experience of using screens like this for years, no, it doesn't. Black is black. Gray varies by screen, and more importantly, by web dev.
No developer ponders what shade of black to use, it's 000000. Gray... Not quite as clear cut.
Nothing anecdotal about that, but sure. And my entire point from the start was that black causes less strain than light gray.
At the end of the day, you have your opinions, I have mine, and I'm sure you're right that dark gray is better than black for eye strain, but in the real world it doesn't work like that due to the reasons I laid out above; monitor calibrations and web devs who just throw whatever shade of gray they want on to it.
