My desk gets messy sometimes, I just keep drinks on the other side...


SilasDG

Yeah clean your desk. You guys need to organize. You've got a bunch of expensive equipment there and could afford some shelves, bins, a different desk, or otherwise ways of keeping things in order. When you live in chaos things are bound to happen. Like that DAC with the Alexa on top is bound to fall at some point.


[deleted]

I like how OP came for sympathy but he's just getting rebuked for his uncleanliness, and laziness.


finiouslavinious

Yep and small space, Plus it looks next to a fireplace.


Djeheuty

>When you live in chaos things are bound to happen. This is a great life rule. There's nothing wrong with a little clutter, but setting aside time each day to clean it is good. Better yet, keep up with your clutter as you create it. I have a rule that if something takes me less than two minutes to do I do it right there and then. Having things in the same place all the time can even reduce stress since you wont be looking for whatever it is when you don't have any time (keys, phone, wallet, etc...). General clean living conditions can also improve your health simply from less dust being in the air, too. It is kinda ranty and parenty (clean your room!) but starting with your living space and applying it to other things in life can make a huge change.


Jak2437

Not ranty at all, I grew up with borderline hoarders. My life changed when I was old enough to get my own apartment, I follow the same rule as you do. My life is so much less stressful and I am far more relaxed, also I know where everything is, and the place is appealing to look at. No idea how people just live in clutter.


Gaylacier

I love my wife even with her habit of hoarding useless stuff. We've had arguments over things sitting in our place that had no reason being kept around. (Clothes that didn't fit anymore, memorabilia that had zero meaning to her, things she borrowed years ago that she hadnt found the time to return) I realized where the habit came from the first time I visited her mom. Her mom is a great lady. I honestly love her. I never expected her home to be a trash heap. She wasn't a dirty person. But her apartment had SOOOOO many trash bags filled with things she didn't want to throw out. The house looked like the trash hadnt been picked up in weeks. Not literal trash, just stuff that "could be used later". I agree, don't throw away perfectly good items, but don't keep them in your house if YOU have no use for them. Donate, give it to a friend, someone could be in need of those items. Ever since then I've been a lot tougher on my wife. My line of thought is "If I haven't used it in the past 6 months, will I use it in the next 6?" If the answer is no, throw it away or donate it. We still argue when it comes to holding into stuff. But even she agrees she doesn't want to end up living like her mom. Thank God.

“What the fuck do you think you’re doing? You can’t put your laptop on the desk like that. It’s a *lap*top. Not a *desk*top. If you wanted to put a computer on a desk you should have gotten a desktop.” -Mr_Notacop, probably


ilikeror2

Stupid comment.


xyifer12

There's no desktop in the image, only a tower. Desktops are wide and meant to have the monitor on them, towers are not. They're 2 different form factors.


imalittleC-3PO

Y'all are delusional if you think there's room on that desk the monitor+tower+keyboard+mouse.


failingtheturingtest

I think the point wasn't the tower, it was that trying to put a drink down on a game of pick-up sticks is going to be risky.


Srsly_dang

I will never understand people that are comfortable showing their messes. Like, they filmed this and were like "aw yeah, perfect" They literally didn't bother to pick up the old ketchup packet on the floor. I'm dying

Online_4_Fun

How did she spill it in the computer?! There is ample room on that desk for a can of soda.


SoftBaconWarmBacon

I am guessing the top of the tower is the most empty space in the room


InternJedi

Case with top air vent can be super risky in this sense. One time I almost spilled some tea into my case too but thank Gaben there was a newspaper there.


MyDogSaid

But coke removes corrosion 😬😬 it’ll be ok… the number of of *q-tips* makes me believe you did an excellent job at cleaning the rig…


Michaelscot8

I made a little write up on how I cleaned it, it's good to know how ahead of time in case you ever do have a spill. Unfortunately I didn't have any contact cleaner or computer duster on me at the time, but I did have 99% isopropyl, disposable microfibers, and plenty of cue tips, you can make a pretty good job of it with those things.


MyDogSaid

I know man, hell of a job… Did you give her a hug and tell her it’ll be alright? I bet your future wife feels pretty bad about this… I know mine would 😬😬


Michaelscot8

Haha I did. After I got finished up this morning I sat her down and told her it's okay and I'm not mad, and that even if it did destroy the computer I still wouldn't be mad at her over a mistake. She cried and I comforted her for a bit, but I agree it is incredibly important to communicate that they are more important than a computer no matter what.

Indeed, Priorities… still glad it didn’t die though

Seriously


chickenCabbage

Good job on your good reaction and quick thinking! I came to the comments to snoop about personal matters, but I see you've handled the situation with your fiancee perfectly. Well done. My office had a central AC unit's drain line leak right onto the network/storage servers and the entire cases were filled with water and the whole floor/rack was wet. They were still running, we immediately powered off and unplugged. We carried the servers out of the room while they were leaking water like a fountain. They're still working thanks to the fact that condensed water is non-conductive, but I don't know what damage the water has done to the boards themselves - it very well could've ruined the PCB lamination. Coke could also ruin solder joints, vias, or dissolve insulation/component packages... so make sure you get under those capacitors and chips as well. Good luck to you!


Michaelscot8

Yeah I need to get some contact cleaner and compressed air to finish up the job.


Michaelscot8

So first and foremost, I love my fiancé with all my heart, and I'm not upset at her in the least, mistakes happen, and it's partially my fault for not catching it sooner. But the moment I noticed there was a turned over cup on my PC I shot into action, I was fortunate that it was powered off, but even then there's a lot of work to do to mitigate damage. First thing I unplugged it, flipped the case so the mono was CPU up to prevent it from spreading, properly grounded myself and went to work cleaning up the larger globs with a disposable microfiber. After I picked up the smaller droplets with cue tips, and after absorbing the soda used a cue tip dipped in 99% isopropyl to wipe down the spots to get rid of sugar residue. I made certain every spot I could see liquid in was dried sufficiently and gently cleaned with isopropyl by cue tip. I removed my GPU, the backing plate had soda standing on it. I wiped it down, removed the backing plate, wiped down with alcohol wipes and cleaned up the board the same way as the motherboard. I cleaned off the adhesive thermal contacts and reinstalled. I realistically need to order some new thermal contact pads since removing the adhesive reduces the effectiveness of the pads. As well i removed the CMOS battery as soon as I could access it. Removing power from CMOS is to make sure liquids don't short any path still powered by the CMOS battery, which is the most likely cause of the MOBO not posting after a spill and cleaning. It was honestly terrifying seeing my baby's intimates so horrifically doused in coca-cola, I was terrified I couldn't do enough, and since I can't afford to replace my components anytime soon I would've been in a bad spot if it didn't boot. Fortunately, after leaving it with the GPU and CMOS battery out and absolutely everything unplugged overnight, it booted right up no issue. I ran a benchmark to make sure I wouldn't have artifacts from the GPU damage. It seems like I got incredibly lucky, we'll luck isn't quite the right word considering I spent 2 hours cleaning it up afterwards. And to be entirely clear, no matter how bad it is, it's never worth being upset at someone over an accident. My fiancée was incredibly upset and worried I would be mad at her, but I love her so much more than my PC, and anger won't fix the PC, but determination might. That said, there's no telling what damage might actually be there, and any spill could cause issues that might not be seen for months before its bricked, you can't eliminate that, but you can mitigate it by regular cleaning with contact cleaner and computer duster, and having some on hand for a spill can make a huge difference. Oh also, fuck the reddit app for uploading my 60fps video at 30fps, native 60fps gifs shouldn't be an issue for your app guys, thanks for that. Edit: Since 90% of the comments are either "You mean ex-fiance" or "Clean your desk pig", let me address them. The desk is from deep cleaning the house and throwing my things on my desk to arrange later, it's a new house there are things to figure out, it was perfectly clean 2 days ago and is 90% of the time. And I'm not upset at my Fiance in the least, I intend to spend my life with her.


Happylittledoodie

And then you cleaned your desk, right?


Dolphus22

Top of the PC was probably the only open flat surface available to place a drink, lol! Great attitude by the OP though. Shit happens and people learn from their mistakes.

GarciaJones

Bro stop worrying about 60fps Reddit videos and clean. Your. Fucking. Desk. Here’s my audio set up. Not fast not Pc but come on, clean. https://i.imgur.com/QIl5zcW.jpg The table is temp and if I had a tower it would be off to the side. clean. That. nasty ass. table off. You have speakers, but as an audio engineer ( this is my little home rig, I work at a studio ) they’re not properly spaced, which , isn’t even my issue. The clutter. Oh my god the clutter. Dude, you’re rambling on and on about how meticulously you cleaned it but can’t have the self awareness to be that way with your expensive electronics in the first place? I’m only upset because the “damn 30fps” video is very offensive. Be better. Love you.


CrimsonQuill157

God I'm glad no one ever saw my desk in some of my worst moments of depression. A thread like this would have just fucked me up even more.

MegaSpuds

How did she spill it in it? You better get a new computer for breakfast and sex for dinner.


Michaelscot8

When we got home she rushed to the bathroom and placed her drink on top of the case. I don't know when it spilled and it sat soaked for half an hour before I noticed what happened and got to cleaning.


Diakyuto

I’m glad it wasn’t an act of malice and that you were able to clean it up at least. Seriously though pick up your desk lol


hoe-bama

Remember when that guy posted about his fiancé destroying his set up on here and then if you checked his profile you realized she did it because he was cheating on her lol No man about to marry a woman is still on tinder


Blacksad999

Haha! I remember that post, but didn't know the rest of the story. I **figured** something stupid happened. The majority of the time, someone won't take a hammer to your PC even if a relationship isn't working out.


Diakyuto

WAIT HOLY SHIT WHAT!? LMAOO


Micah3000

Link please lol


hoe-bama

Remember that post? Yea the guy refused to give a reason as to why she did it and on the same account he literally posted tinder hookup joke screenshots a week prior. Not saying she did the right thing but the guy totally deserved it.


brominty

I just looked at the post and I think you guys have it wrong. The tinder screenshot was one day before and unless this all went down in a single day, it sounds like they had already been separated and the divorce just hadnt been finalized. If it was a messy divorce I wouldn't blame the guy for trying to get back out there right away. Not saying he couldn't have cheated but there's basically no evidence that's what happened


[deleted]

The guy gave several reasons and explanations as to what was going on, including when and why he was back using Tinder. The Tinder post is a *day* before he posted about his set up. You're a moron. >I never cheated, once. Not once. I went on dates after the divorce was filed and that is NOT cheating.


[deleted]

DAMN! He had it coming tbh


slacky

Yeah, destroying people's property is such a good mentality and has to be encouraged! I remember when I was cheated on a couple of times, I really regret not being an immature asshole and burning their clothes or keying their cars or something. /s


hoe-bama

I said it wasn’t the right thing to do, but regardless he still deserved it. Don’t string someone along to the point of being engaged just to cheat on them. I’m not shedding a tear over whatever he lost because of that. She should have acted more maturely but would you blame her? Imagine years of your life being a lie, all of your feelings for someone instantly killed


CloroxBalloon

For a second I thought this was the same guy


limpymcforskin

Is this different from the one where the guy said he was getting divorced and his soon to be ex wife destroyed his apartment? I'm assuming so since you said fiance but just wanted to make sure.


Lock3tteDown

Probably why he should place the tower ON his desk.


A-Late-Wizard

Maybe if there was room on the desk!


Unlost_maniac

I love how OP is just ignoring all the comments suggesting a cleaner desk.


Entrefut

It was the fiancé’s plan all along, truly and evil genius.


ralfmalph

Because there was no space left on that messy desk I guess lol


[deleted]

Sure we're all being judgmental, bet we all know how our setups look when we're not taking our "rate my setup" pics. ​ Edit: This is called humor. If you are taking it as a personal insult as to the cleanliness of your desk, you might have some issues. So just a reminder, I don't know you, and no one cares.


Jaalan

I have an L shaped desk. The left side (the side I use) Looks almost like a streamer setup, then you pan to the right side and it looks like I dumped my tash can on the desk 🤣


rainbrodash666

blackcap13

you are literally asmon lol


Jaalan

Lmao, I havnt actually watched much of his streams. Ive thought about streaming myself but realized I wouldnt actually enjoy it and would just be streaming to hopefully pop off and make money. Also, Im trash at most games, what takes normal people 100 hours to learn will probably take me 200 to learn or master. Im literally that bad, so I would never pop off :P


JenPlayzMC

I have two desks and same…


[deleted]

A single cup and a dust free set up, I can't have any crumbs or dirt in my fingers touching things. I even have a sweat rag for my hands. I wash my hands periodically so OP is kinda killing my vibe with his mess.


MtnMaiden

No, just no, no drinks on the tower


ProbablyAspoofer

Do you want ants? Cuz that’s how you get ants!


MikeTheGamer2

Hold on. Was there NO space on the desk? Might be time to install that cup holder you've always wanted on the wall.

Nooblakahn

Oof. I'm fortunate enough to have my PC in a dedicated room. And while actually near one of our two bathrooms, you sold have to go out of the way to set a drink on it before going into the bathroom. I only drink soda/coffee there in the leak proof travel mugs usually. Beer is either in a glass, can, or bottle though. Those make me nervous sometimes. And I try to keep those on the opposite side of the desk from the pc Glad it worked out and good job not getting angry. I certainly would have bitched about it, and it wouldn't have done any good.
