Topic: Do you get OCD about the physical cleanliness of your computer?

I have to clean my keyboard, monitor, and desktop with rubbing alcohol like at least once a week.

Does rubbing alcohol remove unused shortcuts from your desktop?

No, you have to acid wash your computer for that sort of thing.

I used Pine Sol™ on mine.

No, there is cat hair under the keys and all sorts of gunk on the screen etc.

No lol.

Though I should be more diligent. A clean every once in a while is probably a good idea.

That's weird! I always imagined your keyboard as being really clean.

@728,735 (RWBY Rhubarb? !!2qEqOXccb)
When was the last time you cleaned your keyboard?

I just did mine again. Unplug it then dust it off with a brush. Then soak a paper towel with rubbing alcohol and rub the keys down. Then plug it back in and it feels really clean!

Do you dilute the Pine Sol™?

I once had a Hilary in my life and she always used it full strength to clean the floors. She of course did this a couple of times a day because she found the floors always sticky

Yes! Take a spray bottle and pour like an inch of Pine Sol™ in the bottom, then fill the rest with water.

It wasn't until she moved in with me and started doing our floors. I read the instructions and the next time I cleaned the kitchen floor with her watching me. Showed her clean and NO Sticky.

The now excess time she had in the evenings was put to terrific use in the bedroom or even the kitchen floor.
