I use f.lux, and it's great, but it doesn't affect brightness.

I don't want to turn down the brightness because then I've turned down the maximum brightness. My brightness tolerance runs on a curve - at one end, there's the brightness I'm okay with for the page as a whole; on the other end, there's the brightness that's okay for a single pixel, and they're nowhere near each other.

Logically, then, you should never use #FFF for large areas.

That's a good point, I guess I just gave up on that battle long ago.

(Well, not entirely. Games don't get my redshift color+brightness adjustments, and I used to be able to play video without the adjustments as well.)
