Desktop keyboard keys seem to wear? Mine are “t”, “e” and “i”. Something to do with them being the most repetitive? I’ve printed stick-on replacements several times, but the real fix would be to spend the money for a new keyboard. Maybe someday! Despite that, my computer is an awesome source of information, despite being a device that tracks everything about me….and drives me crazy! Am always amazed when I searched about “XYZ” yesterday and Shazam! Today, ads appear about the items I was searching for yesterday. Day late! Big help, huh? How does my computer know?
You need to understand, I’m an old guy, living alone, technically challenged with no real social life….my computer and TV may be my best friends. Life would really be th’ pits without them, and sometimes with them. If one of them should die …. can’t stand the thought. Both work well now, but……..
While TV’s are truly wonderful things, the Remote, aside from being confusing, does need an additional button. I’ve yet to wear out any buttons, BUT, if one button were to wear out, it would be the “Mute” button. I suspect many “Type A” viewers, like impatient me, instantly stab the Mute button as soon as “certain” really annoying commercials appear. For me personally, those include –
- Mike Lindell – the guy in a blue silk shirt endlessly hugging and irritatingly patting (his) My Pillow
- William Devane – Rosland Capital, can’t help but wonder how much gold or silver he has stashed away
- Lear Capital
- New Day Mortgage – Adm Lynch, the “32 year” veteran I suspect is making money off his “fellow veterans”
- GEICO
- Nutrisystem
I am REALLY tired of hearing them……AND seeing them!
If only my remote had a “Picture Mute” button, one I could stab to make the picture disappear. With two Mute buttons, I would be the Master of these irritating commercials ……wouldn’t have hear NOR see them! Now that would be progress……YES!
Yeah, I know……….Gramps, dream on!
