>>517686896Heh they missed real life before cameras were everywhere. We used to appreciate our privacy too. Now today everyone is trying to been seen(Social media, you tube, instagram) Selfies and blog posts.

Embrace modernity. Embrace purple.
>>517687966I saw these for the first time in Phoenix and it made me so confused.
>>517687966That's the color of cheap LEDs crapping out.
>>517688087Yes, modern America. So beautiful.
>>517684542Satanic torment cube
>>517688087Not true. LEDs flicker or just go dead, they dont change colors.
Yellow lights are just SOVLful.
>>517687966Yeah nothing like beaming harsh blue light directly into your retinas after the sun sets. I bet that neighborhood is totally sleep deprived.
>>517684542Los Angeles?
Maybe if your infrastructure was more suited for walking instead of driving you would still have yellow lights
>>517688578>https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/streetlights-are-mysteriously-turning-purple-heres-why/The government uses a cheap purple LED with a coating that when comes off from weather or wear it shines purple.

>>517688533The left reminds me of getting caught by the police for some reason. The right reminds me of when I was a kid and snuck out of the house at midnight to go meet up with friends and just walk around.
>>517686729>>517686769LEDs literally cause damage to your eyes
>>517684542i’m in this pic <3
>>517686800This so much. Incredibly sad seeing how in the past 20 years the soul has been sucked out of this world.
>>517686769record a led headlight in low frame rate, notice the light turning off and on in video? that's because they're flashing thousands of times per second it's why they seem so bright like daggers into your eyeballsi noticed it on my backup cam's low fps display, but look in mirror and lights aren't flashingit's unnatural and probably has some yet unknown mental health impact to be looking at almost ultrasonic speed strobe lights half the god damn day every dayObama was insistent on the switch over even outlawing older bulbs, i don't trust that nigger they don't really give a shit about energy usage or pollution that's obvious from other actions so why did they really push this on everyone? it's miserable
>>517689140i like them because it was a handful of chinese manufactures that had this issue, clearly exposing every city sucking small chink cock. if civil war 2 pops off i'm hunting near the purple leds
>>517689807they make flicker free ones now but still doesn't address the high pitched frequency they emit
>>517689456The left is more alert(white light) like the daytime. It makes your body feel like you are awake during the day. The right is more mellow(yellow light) like a flame. It makes you feel more relaxed.
>>517686589>>517684923Looove these im gonna start a sodium series soon where i live
LEDs are marginally cheaper. We truly live in clown world where basic comfort is sacrificed for a couple extra percent of efficiency.Same shit as paper straws that dissolve in your drink, the cap that's fixed to the bottle, individual trash segregation etc. Such tiny inconveniences that don't really achieve anything are much like mosquitos, over time they get infuriating.The future is you living at the border of despair but just hanging on, all for the sake of efficiency. (((they))) will perfect it like an art.
>>517684542Turn off this fucking lights, I'm so fucking tired of light pollution
>>517690378its only cheaper over like a 5-10 year period, they are much more 4x expensive to actually put up

>>517690639Well, you can't cure lack of curiosity. The sad thing is that people don't care enough to go for a drive to a dark spot at night.
>>517690941Sorry there might be niggers around we need to be able to see

>>517689140I thought the purple-ish streetlights were due to the covid era. They ran out of the typical material used for the yellow/orange lights for a year or two.
>>517691204No, it is still there, buried under all the projected faggotry of the modern goy plantation
>>517684542It is aesthetically superior.
>>517686589Man, being out late with friends. Either sneaking out or just not coming home until late, walking around under the warm orange glow.Hiding from cop cars in the bushes or under pine trees.Back when I'd get picked up by the cops, they'd just take me home and tell my parents I've been bad. No paperwork, no tickets, no court summons, nothing.Is that normal for kids anymore?
>>517691365It's not even that, you have no idea how bad light pollution is, it's more powerful than you think. America is a truly massive stretch of land, and has many empty spaces, but there are still only very few easy to reach places from which you can see the stars the way our ancestors saw them not more than 150 years ago. darksitefinder.com
>>517684542The thing is, they CAN make LED lights that aren't horrific cancer, that are warm and comforting like old Sodium. LED has no colour restriction.They simply choose not to because we're not allowed to ever feel warm and comforted.We must be blasted by cold lights like rats in a laboratory, because we're not allowed to be happy.
>>517692684LED has flicker.
>>517684542Based thread. underrated problem.
>>517684542My biggest beef with LED's is that they seem to be made to be as intense as possible. The fucking cmeras have parfmanent glares on them that shouldn't exist and the managers are so old and blind they never listen when workers complain about these lights.
>>517684542Meanwhile it could be noon and a car headlights will still blind you with how bright those fucking things are nowadays
>>517693937I'm so fucking sick of Karens coming at me on country roads in their big ass gay Kias blinding me with their niggatron LED head lights.

>>517686729stfu nigger. HPS is the white man's light
>>517684542the amount of power those things consume. youre looking at 450w lamps that burn out frequently, and require a massive ballast too. i installed a few cobra heads to replace them as a union tradiewasteful, costful, un-needful saars
>>517694535yet real, not like gay ass LED
>>517684542Could care less about color temperature. It’s the perfect color reproduction of incandescents that I miss.

>>517686800Take me back holy fuck
>>517684923right into feels
>>517684542My garage/drive way light is a sodium light, I love that soft orange glow.
>>517692684Jacksonville, FL mandated that all new LED lights have to be in that old warm sodium color, so at least there’s that
>>517691902my friend told me when cops found him with 1g of weed they actually did a rectal search on him as an underage
Incandescents are a hot element like a glowing coal and so release a "natural" practically continuous array of wavelengths. LEDs however are electrons jumping between semiconductors and thus spike massively at certain wavelengths, it is why everything still seems dark even though everything is lit up. It fits in with the increasingly fake and sovlless dystopia our world is slowly turning into.It is deliberate as well, a simple solution is to block the common violet spike, reflecting it onto another surface which will emit normal light, but most designers omit this. Governments and corporations apparently like its ominous glow.
>>517692684Remember, we are occupied, we are humiliated. They make sure to enforce this on everything in our life, no exception.
>>517688087>>517688578it was the coating/filter on them that burned away. It was on 7th ave aka fag town so I thought it was supposed to be that way.
>>517689807>getting all concerned about the effects of flicker on peopleJust wait until you find out about the fluorescent tube lights that every single commercial building has used for the last half century and some have used since before WWII.
>>517684923Piss filter, I rather have my LED lamps. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

>>517684542I was part of the last on my street that grew up with this. The neighborhood wasn't rich. It was a White neighborhood on the edge of the outskirts. We had a small gang too, all White who'd chase spics and asians out and sell bottles of booze. I remember sharing a cigarette with them under those lights. It was comfy as fuck even though some of them were strapped, everybody knew everybody.Then fucking suburban niggers came in, gentrified the place, knocked down the trees, replaced those lights with LEDs so it looks like some hospital corporate entrance, put up a sign, even got noise abatements. You really do not hate the system enough. And im serious.
>>517690503I didn't understand why they bothered replacing the sodium street lights around here when they are nearly as efficient as LEDs already.
>>517684542>Living where there are streetlightsFound the real problem
I HATE LIGGERS
>>517686896Actually I'm 72 and i remember when sodium vapour lamps came in and the same kind of nervous nellies like OP were wailing about how the monochomatic sodium vapour lamps were going to cause psychological deficits and everything compared to tungsten street lamps that had a bigger chromatic range.How about just not have any street lamps at all so that everyone has to just get into their homes by nightfall and stay locked in till dawn while theives and cuthroats roam the streets in the pitch darkness?>>While specific, large-scale protests immediately upon their introduction aren't extensively documented, the iconic yellow-orange glow of sodium vapor lamps did face criticism and opposition from groups like the Municipal Art Society (M.A.S.) starting in the early 2000s. Their objections centered on the lamps' negative aesthetic impact, causing colors to appear muddy and reducing the perceived security of a neighborhood, and a campaign was launched against them in 200
>>517696826these things are horrible they had them in parts of my school and gave me migrains
>>517698693Bong, art and aesthetics influence behavior. It has been proven that people listening to heavy metal or rap actually are influenced and go out and hurt people. The replacement of the organic sodium light with LED serves to make you subconsciously docile. Think about where theyre used, offices, hospitals, plain rooms. Its a subconscious way of keeping you docile.Think about it like this. Imagine yourself in an LED filled street vs a sodium lighted street. The LED would make me feel small, unemotional, a sort of "lab rat" feeling, artificial, robotic, etc. The sodium makes me feel more antiquated, daring, human like, past, the dimness makes me feel more daring too.
>>517698855>Their objections centered on the lamps' negative aesthetic impact, causing colors to appear muddy and reducing the perceived security of a neighborhoodThis. Going in a sodium lighted street makes me feel more empowered, hidden, subtle. LEDs make me feel small and repressed, like a security camera. Environmental criminologists spend a ton of money researching this stuff.
>>517690682a chidhood memory of mine. the man used to go round on a bicycle and turn on the gas lamps this way, by pulling a ing. kids used to turn em off sometimes. just climb up and pullthe ring again. gorgeous light it was. so comfy, no matter the season.
>>517684923Naah bruh those are low pressure sodium, the good comfy yellow light
>>517698991>>"organic sodium light"kek what horseshit. it's the epitome of a harsh industrial security state...In Inland Empire David Lynch even uses that sodium vapour lamps in some Eastern Euro city to add atmosphere to this brutal life of a whore in a frozen eastern block shithole. i think he filmed/videoed it in Poland.
>>517699436kek. dresden still had these lamps in the 80s.
>>517689807The ironic thing is that LEDs will probably be worse for the environment in the long run. Go into home depot or Lowes or whatever and almost all of the lighting fixtures dont have sockets, but have built in lights that need to be repaired. Lightbulbs were just some metal and glass, and sometimes, if you didn't touch them, would last a decade
>>517684923Winter nights were great with these lights, peak comfy in the 90s and 00s.
>>517686729Night life will just look like the yellow boards
>>517699436it still has them in some historical places, but now the light isn't the same anymore. surely not gas.
>>517697860>third worldThe filament bulb was perfected by Edison and populated the Western world. wtf are you talking about?
>>517698693>sodium street lights around here when they are nearly as efficient as LEDshell no those sodium lamps are thirsty for power, require ballasts that also fail, and burn out
>>517699786he had leds?

>>517690682SOVL SOVL SOVL SOVL SOVL SOVL SOVL
>>517689807Ok but what's the alternative to use at night if you want to keep your city safe from niggers? Soft yellow lights at night make it harder to determine people's movements, and in a major city, you gotta watch everyone's movements as safe areas are getting fewer and fewer.Is there a way to affordably get daylight lighting without LED? I prefer having the bright daylight indoors while I'm still working, and then shifting to soft yellow when I want to wind down. If I could do that without LED I would in a heartbeat, but what options are there instead?
>>517684542>warmer colors are known to be easier and less damaging on the eyes than brighter colors>"let's damage everyone eye sockets"And society faggots says it's okay..fuck'em
>>517700709nigger problem has only one soultion and it's not bright light.

>>517700329Life before the internet was real. The world we live in now is a technocracy which the narrative and direction of humanity is controlled by the likes of transhumanist billionaires Elon Musk. Remember when people would mock billionaires like Bill Gates? Now a billionaire jew prince oligarchy transhuman wants every American to have an AI girlfriend on their smartphone and is spending billions of dollars to create AI systems that does the thinking and learning for you. This is the world we are living it. The internet is no longer just a means to communicate cross borders but a tool to control and brainwash the masses. There's already AI tools built into webbrowers. You can "search with AI" and it will tell you what to see and what to think.
>>517684923Are you a flowering cannabis plant?
>>517699624the street lamps in the 80s around here used to be 5kV, and a guy would turn them in bay stabbing these bayonets in at the local substations, completing the circuit at sundowncouple times some bums in the shitty side of town try to hook their RV up to the street lights when theyre off, anticipating they are low voltage. sun goes down and they shit explodes in a burst of plasma and flames. very lulzy
>>517700969can we ask the chinese to upscale these? whodathunk bright light could be a solution.
>>517699839All I'm saying is the amount saved in electricity costs doesn't seem to justify the cost of replacing them unless they're not working.
>>517701789especially since nobodies power bill anywhere ever has decreased
>>517701331those are way too tall. i live in the country where lights go off shortly after midnight, which is nice, but even there i have one of these tall mofos illuminate my garden at night. some day i'll have to shoot it.
>>517699786>perfectedNot exactly. In fact there's no perfect incandescent bulb, just different kinds of shit.Marginally higher efficiency and they burn out rapidly.Ultra low efficiency and they last forever but 109W is like a single 2W LED diode.
>>517700849Well obviously that's the "easy" answer, but until we fix the nigger problem, being able to get some daylight lights for home that aren't LED would be great. If there's no compromise then so be it.
