@JSDorn @nugger @matrix @shitpisscum It seems there might have been extremely durable incandescent light bulbs in the first decades of the 20th century before the Phoebus cartel decided to make them less durable, in the name of the free market.

@rasterman @JSDorn @matrix @nugger @shitpisscum yeah there is a really old bulb in my garage, thing has to be from the 30s. still goin' strong

@blackeyes @JSDorn @matrix @nugger @shitpisscum I dislike that we've been gay op'ed out of using incandescent bulbs because otherwise they might last 100 years and the manufacturers would prefer planned obsolescence.

@rasterman @matrix @nugger @shitpisscum yes

@nugger
You know you can just get warmer ones? Town's retarded for picking the cold ones.
@shitpisscum

@matrix @nugger I don't think I ever saw warm white LED street lights lol, they're either cold white or even colder white. Btw the clolr temperature is honestly not as big of an issue as the fact that in most cases they're too bright. Also sometimes the failure mode of them is just quick flashing. Imagine living next to a super bright flashing lamp for months before it's either fixed but more often just keeps flashing untill it dies completely

@shitpisscum
I like that they are bright because you can actually see the ground, but I can imagine living next to one might be annoying.
Don't all lamps flash when failing?
@nugger

@matrix @nugger
>Don't all lamps flash when failing?
Fluorescent tubes sometimes do. Sodium lamps usually start cycling, which means on for a minute or so and then off for about the same time. Still annoying but less than a rapidly flashing white LED lamps. And yes, the main issue here is the fact that they're left like that for months because noone gives a fuck to replace them
