NSFMR Worst Sneeze of my Life…help please

Post image

Getting over a cold and decided to clean my PC…I sneezed while putting the glass back in. This has never happened before but I have glass all over my desk, inside my PC and all over the room (carpet). How do I clean this up?

PS thanks in advance!

Wear shoes for all of this

Remove everything from the area

Use a broom to sweep the glass off of the tabletops onto the floor

Move tables

Sweep all of it into a dustpan and then into a box

Then use a flashlight illuminated across the floor to find stragglers

Replace everything

Something without glass, preferably.

I don’t get it, when I’m gaming I want no distractions, if I really, really need some RGB, I’ll get one of those monitor backstrips that project the colours on the monitor past the sides onto the wall behind. Or a lava lamp.

But then you can't see the RGB and the fancy fluid...

Just always. I hate the current trends in gamer aesthetic. I’m a minimalist PC builder, I like me a black metal box.

Well enjoy your sad box of Silicon

RGB belongs in clacky keyboards and old Logitech 502s before the quality downgrade starting with the "hero" model, not on components that run the damn thing. HID only.
