It&#39;s amazing how little brightness you need to read black text on a white background under bright lights, but that is not the case for white text on black. For LCD displays, not OLED, but I suspect LCD is still far prevalent. 2026-01-06T15:38:31Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvhzd3l4l5meqgwtm5t6ph3u9f8nwde6fzsqw8uh6g5ad49ltwevszyqy9p89quc454eknt7fu6khx45xx50fsawjlxwpyauv3vdh2sw3yk5f6gkr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvcn7aaek072p3nk0fyem866n3x84lk49g0rzjhvyga9820cm90xq93x977'>nevent1q…x977</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Also, saw this after being offline for weeks, so no idea what the impetus for this poll was.

I&#39;m not quite sure why I&#39;m not 100% opt-out yet. I think probably because our healthcare system is so fucked that I don&#39;t trust that people can take care of themselves to have accurate medical records to go with those organs and also because of the many fucked up misuses of donated organs/tissues that have happened.<br/><br/>Already a donor, but thanks for making me think about this more! 2025-12-29T20:43:35Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2udxahcqsa8uam8nj9qc0ge0z7m2dr6quyjvtkpq7ag4ryhnpr8gzyqy9p89quc454eknt7fu6khx45xx50fsawjlxwpyauv3vdh2sw3ykrlurq0 So [@rl_dane](<a href="https://polymaths.social/@rl_dane">https://polymaths.social/@rl_dane</a> ) shared a link to an SVG version of the SCSI logo on Wikimedia Commons:<br/><br/><a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Scsi_logo.svg">https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Scsi_logo.svg</a><br/><br/>I clicked through to see if there were copyright reasons for doing so.
