I really hate it when programmers design a UI with only dark mode in mind. I need the light mode to see things better, dark mode is way to strenous for me. One of my main pieces of software, though, has some hardcoded UI shit that simply does not work in light mode. Black text on black backgrounds really sucks. And light gray text on white background for the main output log is also shitty.

It took years to get away from green/orange text on a black background and bring actual colour to computers.

Now all anyone wants is the black background again.

So, how many people switched their discord theme just to check it out?

(And holy shit yes, that's a lot of white)

It has to be ultraviolet radiation, it seems it's the go-to of the vampires weakness

Does that mean the publicity events to help repair the ozone layer back in the 90s were likely driven by vampires just trying to prevent instantaneous combustion.

No cap. That's what it's there for bud, glad you enjoy it. ✊ Just remember this when a pal is suffering from eye searing whiteness and requests a dark mode haha.

Building up tolerance? That's a smart move. When the vampire hoards attack you'll be able to fend them off without risking harming yourself.

Nah, it's like salt - vampire would stop to count and read all entries and scroll to the bottom.
