  F.lux is linked to sunrise/sunset or to time-zone?

  Yeah, there are two transition speeds available in f.lux: 20 seconds and 1 hour, labeled as "Fast (20s)" and "Slow (60m)". For some reason, the default is 20. I'd guess that their reason for making it default to 20 is so that if someone installs f.lux on a slow computer, then 20 seconds would be better and easier to tolerate than 1 hour because it would only slow the computer down (slightly) for 20 seconds instead of 1 hour.

  @karbop have you thought about using some already available glasses? You might like the orange Uvex glasses, they're about $9 at Amazon.com. You can go see http://fluxometer.com/rainbow/ for some of the different filters (including glasses and f.lux)

  @lorna said: @TwoCables oh thank you, I'm sorry @joon for misreading your post. So you want 1200K all day? Would darkroom be a good workaround for you? You're welcome! Yeah, Joon wants to stop time dead in its tracks. Every morning at sunrise, Joon has to change the location so that f.lux goes back to saying that it's still Nighttime. Right now though, I think you're right that an easier solution would be to switch to Darkroom Mode, even though this kind of inverts everything with just red and black. I'm with Joon on this one though: I'd much rather be able to choose any color temperature any time I want because sometimes I go to bed before sunset and sometimes I go to bed shortly after sunrise. However, I admit that I have reached a point where I can make my Location change in about 5 seconds.
