why does this image have built-in spit droplets
My dumb ass just went and tried to clean my screen before I read your comment
Did you put it into screen cleaning mode first?
Same, I was wondering why doesn’t the damn thing cleanse off
It has been saved, reposted and saved so many times that there is data loss making fuzzy artifacts in the picture.
This was incredibly confusing for me because I washed my hands after opening this post. I picked up my phone, and I read your top comment before reading the post, and then I looked at my screen and I actually had water on my screen. I was like, “Damn that is some realistic looking water!” Then I wiped it on my shirt and it disappeared and I got really confused lol
Shower thoughts, clearly it needs water.
Image so old it got moldy
It’s semen
Some keyboards have a lock button and most can be unplugged
Mostly only an issue for laptops.
Side note: whoever decided that pressing any key on the keyboard should turn on the computer should be shot. Fuck you Apple for bringing that back.
Not sure how long I’ve had this tool but several years at least. Nothing fancy, just toggles keyboard input temporarily so you can clean. Works for power key.
Years ago Apple rejected the app for the Mac App Store because apparently it’s “not useful”
Apple employees never clean their keyboards confirmed
There were two HDMI ports. (I selected the correct one)
Thank you, meme, for making me take 20 seconds to clean my phone screen then wonder why it wouldn’t clean.

You’re supposed to take it to the Apple store, where they will charge you $800 to “clean” the keyboard, by replacing and throwing away half the computer. This is the correct user experience. /s
Apple hates making functional serviceable machines anymore.
I don’t clean my keyboard. I just add chia seeds and a little water. Chia keyboard ftw.
Chiaboard.
K-K-K-Keyboard!
Just lock the screen. The worst that’ll happen is a failed login or switching the keyboard layout or something.
Windows-L is the hotkey (in Windows at least), for those who maybe didn’t know.
And in GNOME. In KDE, it’s Ctrl+Alt+L. In macOS, it’s Cmd+Ctrl+Q.
My KDE (both 5 and 6, just checked) also uses Meta+L, by default. On my KDE 5 Ctrl+Alt+L appears as custom but I don’t remember adding it, maybe they inverted the two.
Maybe it’s the other way around then, it’s muscle memory at this point. I know GNOME and KDE are opposites.
My god, unplug the USB or just turn off the keyboard. Simple.
Esterline make specialised keyboards that are specifically for sterile environments which have this feature. You press a button, the keys are ignored and you can wipe the keyboard down.
Sounds like a mouthwash company
I just open a vt and clean. Typing gibberish on login prompt is fine and f keys don’t work.
I usually open vim.
Lock screen also works.
You could also just unplug the keyboard
Almost all DEs have a lock screen…
Everyone has a reason here why this isn’t necessary, but frankly it’s just not a dumb idea and especially relevant for shared workplace workstations. I’d rather have a disable for cleaning button than a windows button.
I don’t mind the windows button. It’s effectively a quick way to a run command.
Draw an S on there and bam! you have a Super button.
What’s a Super button you ask? It’s the S in S-M-butterfly. Or in other words: it’s an extra modifier key.
I think KDE plasma calls it the meta button. Now that’s ruined too!
Why would you be pressing down on the keys anyway? Just remove the caps so you can ACTUALLY clean the keyboard.
Birds love a deep clean!
This might just be my keyboard specifically, but I broke some of the caps doing this and had to special-order replace them.
They should add an MP3 player style “Hold switch” on all keyboards
