Description

We need some quality system sounds that make helloSystem sounding familiar yet distinctive.

Please feel free to suggest suitable licensed system sounds that share the vibe

* **Beep** (we should find a way in QtPlugin to play this sound whenever a QDialog is opened) https://freesound.org/people/unfa/sounds/215416/

* **Task complete** https://freesound.org/s/567204/

* **Eject disk** https://freesound.org/s/522165/ or https://freesound.org/s/522165/ or https://freesound.org/s/265337/ or https://freesound.org/s/251545/

* **Move to trash** https://freesound.org/s/445963/ or https://freesound.org/s/475134/

* **Empty trash** https://freesound.org/s/364442/ or https://freesound.org/s/445963/ or a piece from https://freesound.org/s/450779/

* **Send mail** https://freesound.org/s/607250/

* **Desktop appears** https://freesound.org/s/89150/ or https://freesound.org/people/MasterEngine/

* **Logout/shutdown** https://freesound.org/s/273711/ or https://freesound.org/s/418004/

* **Fatal error** https://freesound.org/s/561996/

* **Computer startup** (unfortunately we would have to write an EFI driver to play sound that early, or find a way for the bootloader to play it through the PC speaker...) https://freesound.org/s/433930/ or https://freesound.org/s/418002/ or https://freesound.org/people/MasterEngine/

What we would like to have
* **"Surimi"** (a similar-sounding pun on [Sosumi](https://vid.puffyan.us/watch?v=k4J8AF25PjA))
