A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Why we actually need bluelight filters in lens, monitors and phones? Led bulbs are already emitting a hell lot brighter bluelight every day and night. Whats the point in buying these less blue marketed gadgets

An article came out last month or sometime relatively recently that basically says blue light filtering doesn't help jack.

Personally I prefer warm toned light in everything except my computer monitor.

Edit: published study AND summary article. I only read the article but there is a published study associated with it.

Yep, turns out that while there is a subjective comfort benefit, there is no medical effect to it. Still worth it of course as far as just feeling nicer to use / be around goes, but also means there's no use spending money on a solution for it.
