Great start to the morning

The morning ritual...

  1. fill the kettle
  2. turn it on
  3. turn on the pc and monitors

I got to step 3 this morning and one of the monitors wouldn't turn on... the button was spongy. I pressed a little harder...

Oh bother!

Luckily it's the button itself that's broken. That doesn't mean I can fix it BUT I can shove my finger inside the 240v electric thing and toggle the PCB switch inside. One downside?

I get to spend all day with that little light, which lit up the button surround, shining straight at me. I've dragged my speaker in front of it for now :)

Black tape!!!! Lololol

Ah, but the button to turn the monitor on and off is inside that hole - if I tape over it I can't get in there any more.

@scarletLeonard suggested a post-it or something to hand down over the hole but that I can lift up.

I also tweeted at Acer since they made the monitor - you never know ;)

Well I didn't say super glue the tape down... Lolololol black tape goes on and comes off again eeeeeeasily lol
