LCD Burn In

I’ve realised today that my LCD screen is suffering from burn in.

A photo of burn in, left, and a normal screenshot, right.

Apparently, it’s actually called “image persistence”, but I think that’s more corporate double-speak than anything else. The solution? Leave your screen turned off for long enough, or use up more lamp hours (and hence have to replace it sooner anyway) displaying a blank white image.

Just in time for the HSC! :D
