Run a fan or air cleaner.

Computer generated white noise is not random enough. It will distract you as your mind finds patterns within it.

Put the TV on with the volume down low on one of the God channels or something else completely banal and boring so it will not distract you into watching. I used to simply watch TV and study because silence or even white noise drives me crazy.

I would play some music, but don't loop it. If you need true "white noise", tune a radio to a station with nothing broadcasting, or disconnect your antenna/cable from the TV and turn it on. This only works, though, if your TV is old or lousy, and doesn't mute the sound when it's not getting a signal.

It was, but it had a nice audio track.

Blasphemy! Among the Living was the best.

As for the question, $6 desk fan from Walmart.
