Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Sure, the whole world is on fire right now, but there are also little things to be upset about. ☝😉

Green is too close to yellow in some LED colors, so if you have a yellow indication for an issue with the devices it’s far easier to separate blue-yellow-red indications than green-yellow-red, especially for those who make have deficient color vision.

I once slept in a hotel room where the TV had a blue LED standby light. I had to go and cover it up, it was way too bright.

You guys in these comments should all buy light dimming stickers

I have a microphone that when plugged into my computer, even if the computer is sleeping, shines a bright blue light that cannot be covered up without removing the sticker covering the screws holding the mesh in, so I just put a pair of socks on top of it as a 'temporary' solution

drop of black nail polish?

Black electrical tape works really well to temporarily cover LEDs.

Edit: I feel unoriginal... The very next comment I read also suggested black electrical tape. That's why I should just lurk like always :/

Edit2: it feels like every other comment suggests electrical tape. At least I am not the only unoriginal lemming.

I should specify - I would need to cover the whole microphone to block the LED as the LED is inside (picture)

Judging by all the comments, I’m definitely not the only one with this pet peeve. 😅

I don't charge things at night since I don't like to be asleep when a battery is charging. This conveniently makes it so I don't get to see a charging light at night. Everything else is on a power strip with a switch. My bedside light and alarm clock are the only things plugged a power strip without a switch.
