stuck pixel

Screen's stubborn dot

A stuck pixel is a pixel on a display screen that remains fixed on one color instead of changing with the rest of the image.

Unlike dead pixels, which stay permanently black, stuck pixels typically glow a constant red, green, or blue.

They sometimes can be unstuck through software remedies or gentle pressure.

There's a stuck pixel in the corner of my monitor that's driving me crazy.
