whereas dark vs light is a user choice, the real question is why MS have made it such a PITA for a old school win32 desktop program to show in dark colors. New controls work with hacks and old controls, just forget about it.

Some people find dark mode easier to read. Just from an accessibility standpoint, that's enough reason.
But the other reason is that emissive display technologies like OLED only burn power for light pixels, so dark mode saves battery life.

Hi,
I used to use dark mode to help with my near blindness. Now that my blindness is total I fell like the best mode is light because if I am correct there are driver transistors or chips using power to twist the crystals in fact all the non char generation ones fully to make black and mostly to dark. Is this right? Using power to twist crystals seems a waist? I would love to teach my Lenovo Thinkpad to turn off the backlight and all display driving when the lid is closed. I keep it closed all the time unless I have to show a sighted person something.
Good question and anticipating the comments to com. thanks.

Dark mode has better contrast, and is more confortable to use.
But that depends on you setup really, not every dark mode is optimal. Some seem to be made by UI designers, some seem to be just color inversion.

I prefer the look of dark mode, but found after a while that I just can't focus as well on it. I think part of it is that light mode provide enough light to cause the pupils to contract, which does actually make it easier to focus for those of us with aging eyes.

I can see everyone's excitement over possibility affording a suborbital flight (not even that, more like just high altitude flight with fall back to earth). I would definitely salute them if they ever reach first orbital velocity of 7.8 Km/Sec

Too bad his rocket can't achieve orbit because that means he'll be coming back.

Okay, if that is not thinking alike ... Well done

From what I could read, lots of people are expecting the billionaires to reach orbit so that they can stay there once they reach it.

take me to your leader.
looks like it was a success. this is just the beginning...
can we all say Cyberdyne Systems[^]

Even better: If they can reach something in excess of 43 Km/s (the sun's escape velocity from earth's orbit), you will never see them again in the entire solar system.

Extend polluting to the galactic level, sounds about right.

In that case they will be leaving for the Proxima Centauri which they should reach in about 1,000 years if the cosmic dust do not eat away their hull before

... waiting for a GTA V Update to finish.
I had half a hour before the court case started (video witness, nothing serious), I thought I'd kill some lawyers for Martin Madrazo.
But no. GTA V is updating to the Los Santos Tuners edition, and that is s...l...o...w.

I thought you lived in the middle of nowhere, what could you possibly have witnessed?
Wait... is this feline court you are talking about?
