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

Yeah, it's way worse in vehicles haha. I have an aftermarket entertainment system in my 2006 Matrix -- it has three modes: Daytime colours (bright), nighttime colours (dark blue but still bright), and screen off. Highway driving at night means the only real option is screen off. I otherwise really like the system, but it seems like a huge oversight. It seems that none of the developers of these things ever actually test them in nighttime driving/working conditions.

I don't miss much about the 2013 Prius but it had what was basically a blackout mode, akin to the old Saabs, where almost everything inside the car that was illuminated would turn off.

Great for cruise control on the highway at night.
