And the steroids for my sinuses aren’t helping matters.

What I found helped me getting to sleep earlier and faster was automating my living room lights. When the sun goes 3° below the horizon or at 21:00 (whichever comes later) the lights slowly go down to 30% brightness. I get sleepy soon after and hit the sack earlier than I used to.

If only I could also automate the brightness of my desktop PC-s monitor, too. Alas, can't even manually control the brightness from software...

Doesn't the program flux do exactly that?

Doesn't flux change just the color temperature? This is built into Windows itself these days.

But I don't want to change color temperature and throw out color accuracy; I want to change just the brightness, automatically so I don't have to fudge around in monitor OSM all the time.
