Your Tech Pet Peeves

[Muffinmaddness]

So i'm the only one that has common sense and turns my monitors and other things off at night?

 they turn off ? 

 

and mine would be motherboards without a Q-connector and no speaker or readout on a mobo...so annoying if you're trying to diagnose a problem 

[Muffinmaddness]

I have a master slave power brick so my monitors, speakers etc get powered off when I shut down my PC

...so im going to steal that idea ....thanks

How I cant sleep in a room without a computer running. If I turn my computer off and there are no fans running, I just can not fall asleep.

Is your computer particularly loud? I can't sleep with mine ON, though I can't fall asleep in total silence either. Usually I just play some long ASMR clip on my tablet and I fall asleep in the meantime.

LED's for monitors and everything else. Can't stand it.

I can barely hear it when it's on ._. I just cant sleep without it because I'm used to it

Bad cable management

Watercooling pipes blocking my view through a windowed case

"Consoles are better than PC's"

"30fps is better than 60fps because it's more cinematic"

Disk is cluttered with useless s**t

Unclear Mic recording

 

And most importantly

 

"Controllers are better than keyboards"

 

My heart has been burning ever since I started writing this...

open cases, even if mine is almost naked. i freaking hate it.

-broken keyboard stands

-people who touch non-touch screen monitors

-people who install 32 bit operating systems on 64 bit machines (more so if more then 4gb of ram is installed)

1. Cluttered desktop

2. Basic windows theme (like windows 95)

3. Toolbars/un-needed programs

4. tons of background programs

5. shitty build quality

6. overpriced flashy shit *cough cough* apple and alienware *cough cough*

7. Loud components/annoying noises from components (fans, hard drives, etc.../speakers buzzing, coil whine, etc...)

[Crowes]

Having alot of icons on the desktop... My desktop only has one folder called "Everything" for everything

Mine has the trash can alone. Just so I can admire HD wallpapers.

Bad Optimization

cluttered desktops

when someone has like 8 youtube video windows open

when people clearly have malware on their browsers but wont do anything about it

bad cable management (even though im a culprit of it)

This can be genre-specific, or personal experience.

 

I'll start:

 

• I really dislike my monitors for their stand-by blinking LEDs. I can see them at night when I'm trying to sleep and it's annoying.
• The power and HDD LEDs on my case are also really annoying and I had to disconnect them from the mobo.
• What's the deal with power supply carrying cases? You don't take your PSU out shopping every so often.
• Why can't I find a phone with good battery life anymore? I'd happily sacrifice weight, thickness, a huge display and some processing power for something that I don't have to tether to the wall every night.

 

 

THIS.

 

My samsung monitors have this too, and whats worse is they are always slightly out of sync  when flashing
