Who turns off the computer?

[–] AlsaValderaan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 months ago

I hibernate my work PC so it doesn't auto update and close all my stuff. I'd like to do that on my own at the end of the week, tyvm

Also I get to softly kick the front every morning.

This brings back memories. I’d turn on my big ass HP with my foot and its bright blue LED power button would light up the room.

Look at Mr fancy pants over here with blue power indicators on their childhood computer.

Most of us made due with red, or if you were lucky, green.

I shut mine down by overheating it.

I still do it except its my UPS

Why are you taking up nice clean desk space with a big generally ugly box and lots of cords? Keep things tidy that under that desk.
