Killing the lights

Killing the lights

Ever notice how those little LEDs that you never pay attention to, all of a sudden look like halogen floodlamps at 2 AM? You wake up and think to yourself "wait a minute, didn't I turn off the lights 4 hours ago?"

The light on my network hard drive is especially mean. That thing will light up a room like a Christmas tree. So today I thought to stick a couple of rubber bands on it and repurpose a strip from an old plastic flag I had laying around.

And now it's a whole lot nicer. And the best part is, I can still see what the indicator light is doing.
