Tried converting a story from TIFU to greentext because I’m bored at work.
I saved a Gimp Template while working on it: https://files.catbox.moe/ipnjzk.xcf
You know, you only need to be around 5% smarter than the tool you are using to be successful with it. Humanity is right fuckered isn’t it?
Oh, 4chan is back Your post is how I got to know it.
There are consequences to being stupid.
Anon needs a hug. 💔
He doeeees!
His life was set to ‚dim’ for six years
Once you get used to proper bias lighting, suddenly overhead lamps become insufferable. I don’t know how people do it.
what’s bias lighting? i’ve never heard of it and if it works as a complete replacement to overhead lamps, i don’t think looking it up showed me the right thing
Lights that you place behind things, like your bookshelf, TV/monitor, bedframe, etc. It’s so much more cozy and inviting compared to direct lighting. Like the other person said, a simple cheap lamp works wonders.
Sounds like “light pollution” but indoor.
That’s mostly just indirect lighting.
Bias lighting is specifically lights that are placed behind screens to help reduce eyestrain from viewing a bright screen in a dark room.
But do they humm like angles like my long tubes of clinical white?
I don’t understand
you can make things feel much comfier with a well positioned cheap lamp
When you don’t read the “friendly” manual.
My grandmother gifted me their old TV back in the 2000s because it was only showing black and white.
They had a mechanic look at it who said it was broken
Their was a button to change the saturation to get the TV back to show colours
Ha. I had a coworker gift me a high end amp because the volume was all crackly. Opened it up sprayed electronic cleaner on the volume rheostat thingy and gave it a few back and forth turns. Perfect sound. I offered it back but he’d already purchased a new one. :/
I had something similar, except it was a blown fuse.
Granted, the fuse was soldered in place and you had to take it apart to get to it. But once it was replaced it worked perfectly. No idea why the fuse blew either, unless it was just defective.
I know someone who bought a new laptop and complained that the display broke after only a couple weeks
It only showed a super dim display and the viewing angle sucked
I pressed the fancy new “privacy screen” button and it “worked flawlessly” again
Okay, I’m sorry, but this is totally true and heterosexual. I have seen two people do this in real life.
idk if this is gay or fake, but it’s funny as shit
Why not just get a floor lamp?
this is a vegan greentext no animals were harmed in the creation
I’m pretty sure the fan was not the only thing set to “dim”.
Me plugging my monitor into my mobo instead of my graphics card for three years. I thought I had just gotten reeeeally unlucky in the silicon lottery.
Last time I did that I just didn’t get any output to the monitor, isn’t that how it’s supposed to work?
one time i was testing something with the monitor in the motherboard, which worked fine, and then i put the gpu in the motherboard but forgot to plug the monitor in the gpu, and it showed a black screen.
there might be systems where you can plug both a gpu and the igpu into the monitor and it’ll use one for most things and the other for games and stuff (i dont remember what that is called), but i have only ever seen that in laptops so idk
Massively depends on the system.
if you get a F series CPU with no igpu then you will likely get no output.
If your cpu doesn’t have integrated graphics yeah.
Hmmm, maybe that’s what happened, but I’m pretty sure I was getting output without the GPU plugged in, but that was a long time ago
In my computer once I installed my graphics card the integrated gpu was disabled, but there was a BIOS setting to keep both enabled
Oh that would make sense!
Or getting a high refresh rate monitor and not changing the refresh rate in your os.
Afaik fullscreen should bypass that one.
I have one of those fans. It only has a remote, no pull chains. I fucking hate that thing as much as I have ever hated anything in my life. It’s so shitty. You would think having buttons would make it easier to use than a pull chain but they somehow made it even worse. Both the light and fan use the same Up and Down arrows to change the setting but there’s a delay of a second or two between hitting the button and the fan actually changing (if it changes at all). There’s also no indicator of which setting you’re on currently (which is the only annoying part about pull chains). Also couldn’t get it to switch directions for winter even after spending probably an hour on their site and Youtube looking at documentation and trying shit.
My remote controlled fan sounds like yours except it still has a physical switch on the side of the housing to change direction. I still hate the fan but thought I would share just in case you never checked.
Yea that was the first thing I looked for but this one doesn’t have it. I’m like 90% sure I have the correct instructions to do it but it just does not work. These things are shit and whoever designed this should be ashamed of themselves.
