PC screen time syndrome

The phenomenon where the amount of screen time you would otherwise usually have on smartphone, now moves to PC — due to the amount of productive work you need to get done on PC

With the mountaining amount of coding I've to get done on my PC, I recently experience the inevitable 'PC screen time syndrome'.

The historical era in which people born post- Bill Clinton currently live and date

GTA loading screen

Named after the game "Grand Theft Auto", the slang term "GTA loading screen" refers to websites like time.is/Surabaya that constantly shows advertisings for women's underwear when your parents walk in — but only shows restrained types (and amounts) of advertisings whilst your parents are sleeping or busy with activities like gardening.

I was just trying to check the time on my phone, but when my parents walked in, I got hit with a total GTA loading screen, bombarded by ads for women's underwear like it was some kind of prank!

residual screen time

The duration of time when your screen device (e.g. smartphone) displays some non-blackout images whilst you aren't actively staring at the screen device — hence counted as "screen time" on its Screen Time app despite not harming your eyesight in any way

I love how my phone tracks residual screen time; I might not be staring at it, but those non-blackout images still rack up the hours like I'm glued to the screen!

screen munch

An old term for "screenshot", if you're old enough to remember BlackBerry QWERTY phones

Back in my BlackBerry days, we used to call a screenshot a screen munch—such a blast from the past!
