Not sure if this is the right community for this. If not, I’ll nuke it. Just looking for somewhere that isn’t world or ml now that autism.place is gone.

    I can hear my laptop’s screen refreshing for some reason, it doesn’t really bother me but it is weird.

      You might be hearing the coil/capacitor whine when the CPU/GPU has a surge of activity and suddenly pulls more power.

      Back in the day, on some computers, you could hear when someone was dragging a window across the screen. The larger the area being repainted, the louder the noise.
