#32On Windows, the Visual Impairment Simulator ( http://vis.cita.uiuc.edu/) is even better.
It allows not just grayscale viewing, but colourblindness of different forms, and other visual impairement. Really fascinating. Runs for your whole computer, so you can test apps and other stuff too.

The equivalent under Linux is available in Compiz Configuration Settings Manager (ccsm), listed as "Color filter". It includes grayscale, several forms of color blindness as well as some novelty effects.

Oddly, this is how your link looks in Firefox with the (un)clrd plugin applied: http://i.imm.io/H8V6.png
I'll be reading it with the plugin deactivated ;)

#37Hitting the (un)clrd button in the nav bar, then hitting the "Open a new tab" button (i.e., the "mini-tab") reliably crashes Firefox ESR.
(Firefox ESR is Firefox's analog to Ubuntu LTS.)

That is very strange.

Thanks! I'm actually on Ubuntu just now (I haven't used Windows in quite a while), so I'll have to try this.

I think that's a hardware acceleration issue, since these filters tend to be applied with GL shaders.
