I would actually use this.

They're blue. Exactly the wrong spectrum to get you to sleep.

"I got these kickass orbs, but now I'm wired as balls at 3AM."

🤷🏻‍♂️

Dude in /r/LV426 was making blown glass Alien eggs, couldn't resist. I can leave the red light on all night, but still see and not get wired up. Also, long wavelengths make skin look smoother and nicer. "Does your wife like 'photographs'? Know what I mean?" Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

(I'm channeling Python, but sex in red light is truly a thing.)

EDIT: You can set them to red! Now I'm diggin' them.

All due respect, but 3D printed versions world be far more cost effective and safer, but... 🤷🏼‍♂️

You and me both. I'm just afraid to look it up and see the cost.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 16 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I just did. It's $70, which seems excessive for what it is. Oh well.

Look up "moon lamp" on your retailer of choice. For like $15 you can get a single rechargeable sphere like this. And you can set it to whatever color you want.

See, it's times like this when I really wish that the whole "/u/Stamets and Startrek.website are paid Paramount shills" thing was true.

I would like money.

I knew I recognized your username from something but I couldn’t figure it out, thank you

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait, you mean you recognized the username as being from a Trek show or because I post constantly to the trek communities?

Probably the circuitry required for the "wireless" charging so you can just drop it in that little holder instead of having to unplug it

Assuming ofc you can take the image at face value

[–] LufyCZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Wireless charging is just a tiny bit of copper and a cheap (probably cents) controller

It seems to suck if the reviews are any indication

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

That does make it a little better
