This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
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.
His life was set to ‚dim’ for six years
Cause in the dark no one could see his tears
Once you get used to proper bias lighting, suddenly overhead lamps become insufferable. I don't know how people do it.
you can make things feel much comfier with a well positioned cheap lamp
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.
But do they humm akin to angels like my long tubes of clinical white?
I don't understand
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.
Sounds like "light pollution" but indoor.
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.
Or getting a high refresh rate monitor and not changing the refresh rate in your os.
Afaik fullscreen should bypass that one.
I'm pretty sure the fan was not the only thing set to "dim".
Okay, I'm sorry, but this is totally true and heterosexual. I have seen two people do this in real life.
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
There was a button to change the saturation and get the TV back to show colours
Edit: There and their
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

When you don't read the "friendly" manual.
I was gonna say “CFLs just plug into a normal socket, those don’t generally just ‘go bad’”
The text is about a halogen bulb, though, not a CFL. Those generally use flanged prongs.
idk if this is gay or fake, but it's funny as shit
Anon has never heard of lamps, either.
