• Ultra Librarian Joins Flux to Take the Hard Out of Hardware

  Having never heard of Ultra Librarian, I thought this was somehow related to https://justgetflux.com/ and that they'd made a switch from doing color changing to hardware. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Is it just me who dislikes the winter update with the change of colors?

  Reshade might help with the color tones. I normally use f.lux for Windows, but I don't know how much it might help. Could be worth trying, though. Source: 5 months ago

• Create a shortcut for even lower phone brightness

  This is good advice, but I prefer something that automatically dims and reduces blue light for me. That qay I don't have ro remember. f.lux on Windows and Mac, and Twilight on Android, are what work for me. https://justgetflux.com/ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Blue-light glasses may not reduce eyestrain from screens, study says

  > I can't put nightmode in Windows too close to 100 percent (i put it between 50-65) because then the contrast is just too bad. I hate windows night mode. As soon as you go above "slight" (can't remember the numbers, I'm not a frequent windows user and don't have one handy to check) it gets a sickly yellow taint. Last I checked (2-3 years ago) macos's wasn't great either, although somewhat serviceable. You may... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• How to sleep in extreme heat

  There is evidence that suggests that blue light from screens before bed time can impact your ability to fall sleep. Here are several more resources about this phenomenon.

• Today I learned you can pause the Windows Task Manager moving apps around

  Or Process Hacker (https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/) which IMO is even better. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Windows Explorer memory leak (Windows 10)

  I can use Process Hacker and run "Reduce working set" on it, which makes explorer.exe instantly go down to ~100MB. However, it just starts leaking RAM again and it's a matter of hours until it grows back to several GB. Source: 9 months ago

• FACEIT Anti-cheat - Secure boot requirement update!

  I can't have a task manager style tool installed? It's completely safe and does NOTHING in terms of cheating, no other game has ever flagged it as false positive. Is this AC so bad that it sees the word "h4Ck3R" and thinks it needs to be removed? What else is this thing needlessly scanning my computer for? Source: 11 months ago

• Performance Mods for potato settings

  Http://www.lucashale.com/timer-resolution/ Set to maximum Https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/ Set valheim.exe priority to high and save it. Source: over 1 year ago

• cpu spikes

  If you are on the latest BIOS, the next thing I'd be looking at is something that's hitting I/O, either use Process Hacker: https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/ or task manager to try and catch the process causing the problem. Source: over 1 year ago
