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

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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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.
Sounds like "light pollution" but indoor.
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.
Anon needs a hug. 💔
He doeeees!
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
Okay, I'm sorry, but this is totally true and heterosexual. I have seen two people do this in real life.
When you don't read the "friendly" manual.
I'm pretty sure the fan was not the only thing set to "dim".
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.
Last time I did that I just didn't get any output to the monitor, isn't that how it's supposed to work?
one time i was testing something with the monitor in the motherboard, which worked fine, and then i put the gpu in the motherboard but forgot to plug the monitor in the gpu, and it showed a black screen.
there might be systems where you can plug both a gpu and the igpu into the monitor and it'll use one for most things and the other for games and stuff (i dont remember what that is called), but i have only ever seen that in laptops so idk
Massively depends on the system.
if you get a F series CPU with no igpu then you will likely get no output.
idk if this is gay or fake, but it's funny as shit
Baited by the date. I thought it was back. But, it does say "see you soon!" now when you try to load the website, so that's promising.
I don't really think converting reddit threads to fake greentexts should be allowed here
The idea that people are making fake greentext screen shots is both puzzling and embarrassing. If you have the idea, just post it as a normal comment somewhere else—forging 4Chan screens is the path of madness.

Now I know, I certainly would not have thought backslash would have done it
qt 3.14 [...].exe
Damn, I'm too deep into programming so it took me a bit to realize that the second line was not about the framework.
It took me a while to realize it was short for cutie pie
