I’d say it’s a bit of both. I think the rubber feeling is accurate in that it feels like your fingers are dragging but also a bit of the static crt feel.

I can tell if an electric device is properly grounded or not just by touch. I don’t mean getting shocked, when I run my fingers on a surface it feels differently from when it is properly grounded.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does anyone have ideas for cable management here?English
2·11 months agoLots of good ideas here. This is my take:
Get a bunch of Velcro cable ties. Start grouping things together. As you go, you’re going to get better placement ideas. Once everything is organized, you can decide the next step. Personally, I would look at having the PC in the bookshelf, and look for a way to put the cables in the wall.
If you do that, I’d suggest having 2 cable runs with a string looping through so that when you change things up you can easily pull a new cable.

3·1 year agoIt’s stock Android TV on Nvidia Shield boxes. I’m doing firewall & DNS filtering and I’m only using Plex, Jellyfin and Wireguard. Ideally, I’d like to use a nuc style PC that has a minimal Linux and starts straight into the Jellyfin client.

10·1 year agoI have 2 TCL Roku TVs. I don’t use Roku for either of them, I got them because they were good and cheap. I have them set to switch to HDMI at boot & use android tv boxes. I set that up with a temporary said, then deleted the ssid after.
It really sucks that we have to do things like that to use things we paid for.
The secret is to embrace having an impaired give a shit. Be excellent to your people, and be excellent to strangers. Stop being excellent when they reneg on the dues for our common social contract, but don’t let them stop you.
