move out and draw fire
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.
I have built Ikea shelves. As much as I want to put things on them now, it's midnight:30. I'm going to bed.

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.

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

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This is me. The light level is perfect in the morning and way too bright for most of the afternoon. But I'm too lazy to climb over my desk and put the shades down.
