  • On my dads computer, back in the day, I set the sound for every action in Windows to a silly song i downloaded off kazaa (Windows xp days, i believe)

    So this was the sound that played for clicking the start menu, hovering over programs/apps, whatever it was and making that menu appear, and any sub menu for individual games or apps following that. Any kind of prompt like errors or “are you sures” etc, minimising/maximising a window. Everything!

    That’s what my virus would do. I just need the perfect sound to apply. Maybe that annoying tiktok song “Oh no! Oh no! Oh no no no no no!”


  • This translates to tv shows too to prove the point.

    Tv shows that only have a few seasons that are high quality start to finish are so much better than tv shows that go on and on and on and on.

    For example, the simpsons, whilst an excellent show, should have ended many seasons ago. It’s 30 odd seasons in, and it’s stale. It’s a little funnier recently, but i dont think it will ever be as big as it was.

    I would consider it a failed show now but a successful show back when it was popular.

    So it’s pretty much proof of the point that forever is not the definition of success.



  • It’s all relative. If i sit a few meters away from a 50 inch screen, then it’s roughly the same size as a phone screen held 30cm from my face. It’s just a matter of perspective.

    The level of detail i can see is the same. My fancy earbuds make the sound quality essentially the same if not better.

    The only real difference is i have to hold the phone to watch it.

    Well, most people… not me, I have a folding phone with a stand, so for me, i can comfortably put the phone on a table on the stand that’s built into the case and watch from there. Works just fine.








  • You could try starting with some cable management and then maybe move on to more cable management.

    Seriously, at the very least why arent these cables behind your shelving instead of draping over the front edge? Thats crazy. Then you have a pc in the middle with cables going both ways. Is that a LAN cable coming from the right? Drill a hole and run that through the wall and either run it along your skirting board or get some trunking.

    You can even remove the skirting, cut away a small section from the bottom back corner of the skirt to create a channel for the cable.

    If i was you i would reorganize all of the devices, run all the cables in the same direction and as shown in another comment run them down the leg of the shelf and then across to the tv. And move the PC to the shelf. (Maybe the side of the shelf)


  • If a woman i wanted to date didn’t find me funny when i do goofy shit, then she would quickly become a woman i dont want to date.

    I can be immature without that being my whole personality. I am mature when it’s appropriate and immature when it’s appropriate.

    Just be yourself. You dont want to lock it all away to be in a relationship with someone who can’t laugh at a well-timed fart.
