I wish people paid more attention to things which give the appearance of latency, even when none exists. The Windows volume control in the task bar drives me crazy. You change the volume, and after you mouse-up, this slow building chime plays and fades out. It makes changing the volume feel so slow, especially if you're quickly adjusting it multiple times to dial it in. It's such a small detail, but it could be so much simpler and feel so much faster.

That's why you use the mouse wheel or mute system sounds. :)

> You change the volume, and after you mouse-up, this slow building chime plays and fades out. It makes changing the volume feel so slow You click the mouse once at a desired volume level, and get a positive confirmation. I don't understand how this makes the changing of volume to be perceived as slow... Okay, now I see, the new sound effect in Windows 10... > but it could be so much simpler and feel so much faster. e.g. Gnome desktop.
