This one is going to hurt, especially if you’re decked out in some computer goggles at the moment. Know this: I’m with you. I paid top dollar for an optician to put what I now know is a useless coating on my eyeglasses. The fact is, outside of maybe disrupting your circadian rhythm if you’re staring at a screen late at night, there’s really no evidence that blue light is harmful. My theory? Stand-alone, non-corrective blue light glasses made their money because people want to look smarter at work.
Ooh boy, an absolute classic that’s perfectly crafted to lasso people who want the best tech available, but have little to no actual tech knowledge. They’re basically coiled bits of voodoo magic meant to harvest money from those who don’t know a female HDMI connector from a cow’s asshole. Now, are there different HDMI speed standards? Yes. But that’s not what we’re talking about, and they’re not something you generally need to be too worried about. What we’re talking about is someone smooth-talking you into the fact that only a cable crafted of pure, unadulterated palladium will be able to perfectly carry the digital signal of a Criminal Minds episode to your television correctly. Which is bullshit.
