And green supposedly reduces pain.

And blue keeps you awake.

The guys with their RGB computer gear where right after all...

Some of the first animals were RGB. Not sure why this feature was lost, probably too tacky for early Earth:

> green supposedly reduces pain

There's a Jasper Fforde book[1] which treats green like an opiod (of course, the book is about a dalton style genetic dystopia - colour vision instead of race, but one with Ford in a Mao style "great leap forward").

The whole book treats colour as a powerful thing to manipulate bodies and minds.

Personal anecdote, I was able to improve my eyesight by getting a 70 inch TV as a monitor and placing it 6 feet away.

I was about -5 and moved to -4.75

[cutemonster]

What monitor size did you use before that and how far away? (Is this a monitor for the computer? Or for watching movies/TV?)

I am missing the connection here. Why would this improve your eyesight?

[zackees]

If you are nearsighted then it's probably because your eyes are adjusting to close objects like reading and looking at a monitor. Your eyes adapt to their focal length. For example, taxi drivers often get farsighted.

I think you got the colors mixed up.

Red adds speed.

Blue adds cold.

[zadkey]

Green adds regeneration.

[cutemonster]

Red adds bloodlust, extra strong and dangerous, and speed.

That's why I use Redshift for Linux so the screen becomes more red.

Nice to know it's good for the eyes too

Or... Walk around in nature :-)

I'm lucky enough to live in a relatively green, sunny area.
