Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My roommate is among the 10 percent who don't FF. She will when I'm present, because she knows I think she's stupid if she doesn't, but left to her own devices, she's too lazy to bother.

I was gonna say that about monitors and refresh rates. Some are particular. I have to have a pretty high refresh rate, and my old work monitor couldn't do it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I googled, and apparently it's not an issue with lcd monitors. I think I'm having a problem with squinting because the monitor faces a big, sunny window.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We weren't gone, so much as we couldn't get here (perhaps a problem with AboveNet in San Diego, from cursory poking around).

When you look to either side or above your monitor, the lighting level should be the same as your monitor.
I had to disconnect a bunch of bulbs in my office, as it was way too bright.
