how the hell do you figure?
show me this quoted from a reputable source. Show me real research and real facts.

So? Even if it doesn't, it doesn't strain your eyes so much, and looks better.

i don't know why it works like that, i don't pretend to be an expert, i just know from monitoring outputs that its higher during brighter displays

I'm just saying I'll believe the real google not the half assed site that's pretending to be as good as them while just using their technology

roberth · 16/06/2008 04:12 PM

oh yeah, because coporations never lie about things so that they can avoid doing things...

Slushba132 · 16/06/2008 04:14 PM

becaused half assed sites never lie so you use their product

roberth · 16/06/2008 04:17 PM

google have a lot more incentive to lie than a freelance website...there is no gain personally to them if you use there site over google, whereas google try to maintain a monopoly, which is most easily done by convincing people that thier direction is best. Am overhaul would signify, to the general public, that google arent as sure as they seem that there direction is best, thereby losing support

So google are more likely to lie imo

Also, i could show you research, but its all my own personal research, which so far i assume you would just dispute

CRTs still use the same amount of light (not saving power)
And most lcd moniters use heat not light (still not saving power)
And I don't know what runs plasmas but if your that rich to own a plasma computer monitor you can probably afford to waste the power anyway

calm down buddy,

CRT's technically saves light when black is used, since crt's work by shooting electrons against a metal wall... the light generated by the collision iluminates the pixel. black = no collision at all

BUT, since the flyback (what generates the high voltage for that) is always running, you don't get to save energy...

No display runs on heat, plasmas run with the light generated by fire, hence plasma (plasma = fire)
lcd uses a backlight

theoretically one can save energy that way, but its too small for it to be noticeable

hahaha i remember men google did go black for som energy savin thing a few weeks ago n they said it was jus to get people to turn lights off but that making google black made no energy saving at all and that's y it isn't always black!!! looks like they didnt research r this thing is bull :P

Slushba132 · 16/06/2008 04:24 PM

lcds use a backlight to light up the display the actual color is determined by the heat of the Liquid crystal.

At least that's what I've come to understand'

Also what does google care? They have hundreds of people... This website has more to gain by stealing google's customers. after all they are an unpopular piece of shit website
