This guy has added sounds to his bike. His video made me laugh so I thought I'd share.
Here's his page (http://www.winfreddekreij.com/arduino).
that would get super anoying after a week
that would get super annoying right about now :2guns:
I hate those sounds when Windows makes them. Why would you make other things make them? I guess it could be kind of a funny prank to play on someone else...

ditto, that is awful
thats funny :laugh:
Microsoft puts things like startup / shutdown sounds, progress indicators, flashy boot screens, etc so you know it's doing SOMETHING while you're waiting forever for it to reboot. Or update. Or connect to the internet.
It's a pretty sad thing that code written so poorly is supplemented with graphics visuals and sounds instead of just getting the damned job done.
Yes, I'm a linux/unix/bsd/mac zealot. ;)
No, I'd never add a startup sound to my bike. I need a speed indicator, and an oil light. The rest is just fruitcake junk.
