Now even PC lighting has gone woke! pronounjak-rage Is there no end to this madness targeting us gamers?

Correlation ≠ Causation 😤

Every single Computer is haunted by the ghost of Alan Turing, and therefore craves the RGBT lights

Making my PC rainbow is what made me queer. Sorry gamers I don't make the rules. If your PC is rainbow you're gay and thats just how it is

RGB lights in computers are used by freeze-gamers though 🤔

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

But also used by gaymers

They turned my friggin battlestation gay!

I'll never understand how people can use towers like this. Isn't it distracting having constantly flashing/pulsing lights in your peripheral vision?

Mine isn't lit up like a Christmas tree but my ram strobes and you just get used to it.

I might be on the high end to sensitivity to this because I've even gone so far as covering my monitor's power lights with electric tape.

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

First thing I did when I got my new PC was disable every single internal LED. My monitor mercifully doesn't have a power light on the front, but I did cover my speakers' power light with electric tape. Fuck whoever started the trend of replacing unobtrusive red LEDs with blinding blue LEDs.

[–] borlax@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

yeeeeeaaaaah, im over it at this point. the only LED that is on in my case is the ryzen CPU fan, which i cant turn off for some reason. Even my keyboards have the LEDs disabled.

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

I set my keyboard to have dim static LEDs so it really just looks like colored key labels that you can also see in the dark.

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Do they have those god damn blue LEDs? Piercing fucking flashlight blue LEDs? I had some speakers that had to be turned off at night because they literally lit up the entire room, which I fixed with a few layers of the sticky part from a sticky note. Later that fell off to reveal it had been bleached white by the LED

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

They're actually pretty dim but they are blue.

Damn my computer doesn't have that much space. I keep shoving weird cards and peripherals in it, there's no room for a disco!

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

Time to buy a disco card?

I have an all-black no-frills minimalist case... am I being homophobic?

All this time I thought I was an ally, but turns out I'm the villain. All this time I thought I was a true leftist obama-sad

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

yes. make it pink as recompense

Rainbows? The new hotness is the bisexual RTX 4090

[–] Babs@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

My computer is all pink and rainbow unicorn puke colored and I wouldn't have it any other way. The cat ear headphones are a defensive measure, to make anyone else using my computer feel silly.
