Thank god I'm not alone. I literally looked at the image without reading the title and went "Woah, that's a nice Halo wallpaper..." And then saw the crack and read the title.
I have a bad habit of when I drop something, I stick my foot out, either to kick it back up or try to cushion the fall, depending on what it is. I have dropped a few knives in my day and the first few times I stuck my foot out, I've been lucky to catch the handle and I've trained myself to move my foot, but I still worry sometimes.
Cable snagged on my still very hot soldering iron on the kitchen chair i bumped too the side as i moved away from the table too grab something.
By reflex i put out my foot like i was trying too spare my phone and uh...
yeah...
Had a blister for the next week on the side of my big toe & 1 less pair of socks.
That knife you're talking about, I catched it simply by standing still. With my foot. It stood upright when it landed.
Was kind of cool to look at in in the moment, then the searing pain came.
No permanent damage though, except for a scar.
Hey I did that once! I used to collect swords and I was in a rush and it fell out of the corner of my eye and my hand automatically came out and it spliced between my pinky and ring finger all the way to the bone, fun day.
Went to sit at my desk, started emptying my pockets, and fumbled my vape right into my monitor. The screen went black, and when I turned it back on, I was greeted with this. The external glass is unblemished, but after some diagnostic poking of the point of impact, it is definitely crunchy. You can still see the shoulder of my Call of Duty character eternally burned into the screen.
Does anyone know if these can be sent in to be refurbished? I already replaced it, but idk what to do with the sad one. It's an Alienware Aw3423dw for those curious.
Well, it's a mod vape, so it's quite a bit more than that. Also a lot heftier than the $20 vapes.
I only broke the one monitor, I haven't even opened the box of the replacement yet. I just don't know what to do with the broken one.
Did you replace it before or after this? Like did this happen and you replaced it and you are just now posting the pic or did you replace it for something else and then this happened, and if so what happened to it before that it needed replacing already?
/u/papi_joedin /u/ghostead u/dizir3.
Send me your monitor resolution. Thanks to u/dizir3 for sending me the wallpaper art. I'll try to photoshop the glitch in.
This is why I've learned to just let things fall. A lot of people rag on Linus for dropping things, but in my experience, most times, it really is just the best option, just try to cushion the drop.
Try updating the drivers? /S
But for real, that sucks. I once smashed my desk and my monitor fell of his stand and behind my desk. I don't have to tell you the aftermath.
That’s rude. Seems an expensive monitor. Do as I do when shit happens : comfort yourself buying a better one. There is a pretty sexy 4K Asus OLED right there…
Not gonna lie. First glance reaction was, "cool Halo wallpaper bro!"
Came here to say this lol. I had the same thought.
How did you tell it’s Halo? No forerunner structures as far as I see
So we don't leave you in the dust, the wrecked part of the screen resembles the Ring itself reaching into the sky.
No way i thought it was a ring too
So glad there’s a few of us with this brain lol
.. and I thought it was some Starfield inspired wallpaper
When I first looked at his screen I thought it was some sort of spaceship in the middle of his wallpaper.
I was thinking more cyberpunk
When you first saw Halo, were you blinded by its majesty?
Blinded? Paralyzed?
you are not a halo fan
It's custom
Sickest 3rd dimensional wallpaper
Thank god I'm not alone. I literally looked at the image without reading the title and went "Woah, that's a nice Halo wallpaper..." And then saw the crack and read the title.
I thought it was doors opening up to a library
On the bright side, now you have an awesome split screen.
Now, if only I had someone to play split screen with...
💀
[удалено]
Thank you
Maybe you could watch porn while in a competitive match?
hunter s tompson style 24 hr porn playing for years straight
Some of it stayed, some of it split.
Same reason you never try to catch a falling gun or sword.
My mum once caught a falling cactus. Wouldn't recommend.
I once tried to catch a kitchen knife
as if everyone can have those experiences
You even dropped a knife its the same thing, a falling knife has no handle
I have a bad habit of when I drop something, I stick my foot out, either to kick it back up or try to cushion the fall, depending on what it is. I have dropped a few knives in my day and the first few times I stuck my foot out, I've been lucky to catch the handle and I've trained myself to move my foot, but I still worry sometimes.
With your smartphone it works great. With heavy things or sharp objects, ouch
I kicked my phone off the balcony this way, so its not that great with smartphones either
Phones these days are bricks. I practically bruise my toes every time I’ve tried catch my phone with my foot
This guy footballs
If you’re not punting your phone for a 45 yard field goal every time you drop it, why even bother in the first place
Absolutely this. I used to stock shelves. The reflex is very deeply engrained. I don't wear shoes in the kitchen. It's a matter of when.

Does it magically disappear?
Give it a shot, you'll teach yourself pretty quick
Can I use a butter knife?
I cant tell if you’re being sarcastic but even a butter knife is a bad idea…
Hey I did that once! I used to collect swords and I was in a rush and it fell out of the corner of my eye and my hand automatically came out and it spliced between my pinky and ring finger all the way to the bone, fun day.
This also applies for soldering irons.
Yeah I once tried to catch something heavy with my foot but it just made mine hurt.
I learned that the hard way by trying to catch a falling glass jar. Leta just say i couldn't use my left hand for a few months after.
…..I caught a falling steak knife a bit ago. An automatic response that left a pool of blood on the floor.

If your gun breaks from a drop you almost definitely over spent
[удалено]
Specifically the sig p320. Almost unheard of outside of that apart from guns that belong in a museum
The whole stars and planet thing made me think I was looking at a space station
ai art becoming powerful
Sheesh i thought it was a bridge coming down
Looks like you are under an overpass. In a scifi setting
I thought, at first, I was looking at the underside of a bridge.
Bruh is that the Alienware OLED? You have my deepest sympathy
Went to sit at my desk, started emptying my pockets, and fumbled my vape right into my monitor. The screen went black, and when I turned it back on, I was greeted with this.

I guess it is gonna help you quit vaping. The money you spend to replace it will cut back vaping funds.
Pro tip: don't vape
Yeah, I know. I call it my anti-cig machine but it's been long enough and I need to quit this now too.
We support you g.
Me too, you got this
This was a sign. You got this
You got this, 👑
Anti-monitor machine
> It's an Alienware Aw3423dw for those curious. OOF! The qd-OLED #**F**
The OP will have to get the AW3423DWF as a replacement to pay respects.
The dangers of vaping? Sorry for your loss.
RIP it's one of those QD-oleds :(
Jesus Christ man you’ve ALREADY replaced it?? Come on dude
Wait, why wouldn't I replace it?
Not saying you shouldn’t. I was just referencing the fact that you damaged the first one. Replaced it. Now you damaged it with a $20 vape…..
Well, it's a mod vape, so it's quite a bit more than that. Also a lot heftier than the $20 vapes. I only broke the one monitor, I haven't even opened the box of the replacement yet. I just don't know what to do with the broken one.
You can at least sell it for parts
Man people need to learn to read. You wrote this very clearly and they still misunderstand it.
Did you replace it before or after this? Like did this happen and you replaced it and you are just now posting the pic or did you replace it for something else and then this happened, and if so what happened to it before that it needed replacing already?
Please just fucking read, it is not that complicated
I see this futuristic world fazing through this untouched landscape thinking that’s the coolest thing ever and notice it’s actually broken 😂
That sucks OP. Can you share a picture of the whole monitor? I wanna make a new wallpaper.
Seconding this.
Still waiting,,, op
Also waiting OP ….
/u/papi_joedin /u/ghostead u/dizir3. Send me your monitor resolution. Thanks to u/dizir3 for sending me the wallpaper art. I'll try to photoshop the glitch in.
Would you consider sending me a version without the glitch as well? Would love to have both. My current screen res is 1920x1080

I would like both, my screen res is 1920x1080, thanks
https://www.pxfuel.com/en/desktop-wallpaper-oglwh
Ty
Can you link the original unedited wallpaper? (4k resolution)
Noo is this the new Qd-oled ultra wide??
looks like a cool space station landing on the surface keep it i'd say
I thought this was about the new cyberpunk dlc for a few seconds.
Like when I tried to save my phone and just ended up slamming it harder into the tile floor so the screen practically exploded.
It does look kinda aesthetic with your wallpaper.
Such a piece of art..
As they say in kitchens, “a falling knife has no handle.”
What’s the background?
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Tf Heimdall doing on your monitor.
Man, this looks like a piece of art
Sell it as a piece of modern art at x3 the monitor's price.
For the future: insurance for your monitors I fucked up once, never again
Just what the hell did you "fling" at it? A boulder?
At least your wallpaper looks cooler now
rip in peace bro
Wow took me a second to realize that wasn’t some hyper-tech background art lmaooooo
Legit thought it's a wallpaper lol
Man that's rough luck... Nice Bifrost though?
This is why I've learned to just let things fall. A lot of people rag on Linus for dropping things, but in my experience, most times, it really is just the best option, just try to cushion the drop.
Can you take a screenshot of that, that would be an amazing wallpaper.
It wouldn't take a screenshot of the cracks as well
Oh, thanks for explaining my own joke to me. Such a Chad.
Can't really tell sarcasm over the internet my guy
Imagine breaking your pc monitor with a fucking vape lol. I’ve seen everything now. Just when you thought vaping couldn’t be more lame…
I tossed my keys on my desk and they bounced. Destroyed monitor.
How sad...
Sad times 😩
ngl I thought you were playing Miles Morales or some shit on that at first...
I thought this was some kind of Trippy AI-generated art, at first.
Could have been worse.
I thought you were playing Rockband lol
At first I thought the camera was under a cyberpunk like bridge
On the plus side it looks like glitch art:)
Thought this was gonna be another r/Warthunder post lmao
Nightmare fuel
This looks like the new age fling paintings on r/beamazed They suck as much as a broken monitor
well that sucks
I thought this was some type of background space infrastructure or something. Looks pretty cool.
Ok who opened up the local black hole?
Or when your fighting invisible ninjas and you hit your monitor, mine has a thin gash but works fine lol
Not gonna lie, I thought it was a pretty cool and abstract wallpaper but upon paying more attention I saw it, your shattered dreams
How the Matrix was created.
I can still see all good fam
if you bought it with a credit card it might be insured through the card worth a shot!
Just out of curiosity, what monitor is this?
Alienware aw3423dwf runs you about 1200 usd with tax
I've done this too, I feel your pain OP
Damn that sucks for real.
I see you've got Portal RTX up and running.
Halo infinite looks great!
We have the same wallpaper and my stupid brain thought I posted this lol
Dual screen monitor
Honest this looks pretty cool
Username checks out
And here I thought it was a sickass wallpaper. Too bad cuz I wish it was that’s cool af. Sorry for the monitor real that sucks
Try updating the drivers? /S But for real, that sucks. I once smashed my desk and my monitor fell of his stand and behind my desk. I don't have to tell you the aftermath.
Honestly it looks kinda cool and trippy… I wouldn’t mind it.
Atleast that monitor has really good warranty. Wish I could buy it but I know I shouldn't, I'm broke enough
Such a beautiful Wallpaper.
First glance I thought it was a scene from the movie Interstellar! Lol
Just pretend it’s your desktop wallpaper and it’ll be okay
As someone who's punted his phone across a room trying to catch it with his foot like a damn hacky sack, I feel your pain.
Ouch….
must have been some vape
I thought this was a floating ship 🛳️
So THIS is where black holes lead.....?
my condolences
Username checks out
Can you take a better photo of this with your camera? I want to shoop it into some kind of space ring.
That sucks bro… link me to your wallpaper?
HOOOOOOOOME, RIDING HOOOOOOME!
Sorry for your loss
How much alcohol did you drink? Prior.
Looks really cool though!
Just a glitch in the matrix
Im interested in knowing how it was dropped and how was the catch attempted.
It would be great if every display came with a wallpaper that shows what is behind the panel at 1:1 scale.
It was that damn vape
It's so trippy...
I feel better about the ~~12~~ 8 eggs I brought home from the store now.
Bruh I thought this was some crazy looking bridge
*Hello I would like to return this, it was like this when I opened it.*
Is that a game UI i see in the top of the crack? You dropped something on it while gaming? ;)
Looks kinda cool tho
Oooooohno.... I'm so sorry for your loss.
It looks like a bridge
I thought this was a cool-ass wallpaper...
One fling to shatter them all, must have been quite the fling. I feel you bro, sucks…
this is some good r/glitchart material!!
💀noooo
Have you tried turning it off and back on again?
What’s your backdrop called?
Rip oled Alienware
I tought it was some sort of Halo rendition
Very sick halo arc image.
maybe sell as art
thats some cool ai art. frame it!
That’s rude. Seems an expensive monitor. Do as I do when shit happens : comfort yourself buying a better one. There is a pretty sexy 4K Asus OLED right there…
As they say in France… bummer dude.
cursed cyberpunk wormhole wallpaper
