This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You do see blurrier in the dark, it's just your brain filters it out. You can trick it though by looking at a small bright and moving object in the darkness, like a watch. You will notice that the image outside of bright watch moves with a delay and is blurred.
Also camera images are not that colourful in the darkness, unless you're talking about computational photography tricks used in mobile phones. All optical systems follow the exact same laws of physics and they produce the same results. What's different is post processing by a brain or your CPU in Lightroom.
Are we going philosophical now? If your brain filters it out from consciousness, are you really seeing it? If you are aware that the brain filtered it, did it really filtered it?
Anyways. No, the brain is not a computer, stop.
