Planning to replace the desk top with something more interesting after paying a visit to /diy/ for some tips on staining/preserving a nice piece of wood. This board is just some trash laying around. To be fair almost everything here is salvaged from a curb.

Fucking nailed it. They're in poor health and I'm the only one in the family that gives enough of a shit to take care of them. I'd be surprised if they made it another couple years. Rent is helping out around the place and I pay for my own food and portion of utilities, so it's not like I'm freeloading. It's a bitchless existence though.
Anyway I just bought one of these off of craigslist, a genuine 1972 Army portable field desk. It's gonna be a project to get it cleaned up, repainted and sealed (tested positive for lead paint kek) but it's gonna be sick.

Aye bro I feel you there. Personally I was living in a unit above my dad's garage when I took the pic that I posted. Big respects for being there for your elders though, that kind of deed might leave you bitchless, but it's the kind of thing a woman appreciates. That desk is swagged out, good luck on it, bro. Reminds me that I need to hit up FB market place for some shelves and give myself something to work on. All the best to you!

Dell MR2416.
1920*1200, like 110% sRGB, full dicom preset coverage, glass face with a glossy anti glare coating, and able to be cleaned with up to 70% isopropyl. It's only 60hz, and it's true refresh time is 16.9ms with full transition being almost 35ms. It's a very slow panel, with lots of ghosting, but I like the colour profile and glass screen. I don't really play games much so it doesn't bother me.

Current setup is this, but with the tower now on a tall wireframe rack. Spacemaxxing in an apartment with a new baby. I also have a 19" portrait mode monitor to the left of the main monitor. main is a 32" 16:10 2560x1440 which is just plain lovely for productivity, and I do a lot of PCB design so it works out better than a typical widescreen. Plus- it was free from the e-waste at work.

I usually lean back in my chair and when gaming, and haunch forward to touch-type. I've since converted te printer to have the spool on the right side, so i was able to tuck it much further into the back left corner, so It's actually very unobtrusive now.

Yeah I've never been one to have posters, definetly could be more personalised.
I recently got a light thingy to put on top of my monitor, I think it was a good purchase
This is the monitor https://www.terabyteshop.com.br/produto/23672/monitor-gamer-superframe -prisma-27-pol-qhd-1ms-165hz-freesy nc-hdmidp, it's from a white label brand here in my country (Brazil), very hard to buy any technology for a fair price here

Moondrop May, best ones I've ever had.
I'm no audiophile, but people describe them as 'warm and fun' and I very much agree. My headphones are for people who work with audio (I don't) so they sound pretty bland, I like them for movies.
For gayming and listening to music (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1XNNZPWQMuIwte7IblgYbT?si=fb1c63d61 93e4852) I use the May.
What do you like to listen to anon?

I never took one of the back. The way I rivited in the new tray basically hid most of it so it just looked like any old junker from the back other than the old exhaust hole I had not covered up. I moved my PC back to a traditional tower, and now 4u server chassis.

I got you mane. I keep a list of what I've grown from seed / spore. Easy to show them as a phylogenetic tree by downloading a published phylogeny and then just pruning out what I don't have. This tree is a bit out of date
Everything is getting rooted by spider mites at the moment tho I don't even know where the little cunts came from. I discovered arthropods in general HATE this nonionic surfactant cleaner that costs 1 euro 30 at lidl. Slays flies faster than flyspray and same for the mites. I think it just fills the tracheae really quickly and they suffocate

The laptop below the main monitor is an underrated way of doing things. It's surprisingly versatile when you have limited space. Not to mention you only have to look up and down with your eyes. You can also close the laptop and only work with one monitor and save desk space.

I like that! Especially because you're using an iPad with external monitor as your battle station like a real personal computer! I don't see that often these days. Unfortunately it's often frowned upon...

>>8114923
Good catch, Anon! I actually do use an 11in M1 iPad Pro as my daily driver. I found that it can do 95% of what I want to on a daily basis.
The only things it can’t do well on its own are PC gaming, obviously, and programming.
Fortunately, I’m something of a homelabber and have a server that I can offload those tasks onto as the backend while still using my iPad as the frontend.
For programming, I use VS Code Server hosted on my lab and accessed via Safari on my iPad.
For gaming I have a Windows 11 VM that streams via Sunshine/Moonlight to my iPad at its native resolution, 120fps, and zero discernible compression or latency. I have an MMO mouse I plug into the iPad alongside ethernet to play FFXIV that way.
As a dedicated iPad power user, there’s nothing you can’t do.
It’s all very cool! Thanks for taking an interest :)
>>
>>8115044
Thanks, Anon! :)
That's a fine setup with the server in the backend.
Today everything is possible with remote tools!
Wow! So the w11 vm is on the server then?
Never tried sunshine/moolight before...
I think I should give it a try :)
Yes, it is all very cool, indeed!
Thank you, Anon!
Great solution!

I do not really see too much of a point on posting on /g/ much anymore, it's mostly consumer electronics general at this point with superficial benefits and detractors rather than in depth or knowledgeable insights or discussion. IE: Brand Z bad, buy Brand Y, often lacking any nuance about the products. Now its 10 phone threads, corporate drama, etc. Just whats the point?
I moved over to posting my terrible nudes on /b/, talking car shit on /o/, and if I feel like I am in a really masochistic mood heading on over to /tttt/. I officially "came out" and stopped hiding behind being intersex, shocking absolutely no one. My work schedule become stressed because we area approaching the end of the fiscal year for funding, and my social life is packed literally every weekend. Most of my idle time here is when I am stuck in meetings at work or if its late at night when my partner is playing COD or whatever with his friends and yelling at the TV.

I know this isn't the answer you want to hear, but I made it myself by finding two butcher blocks in the color I wanted, then wood-gluing them together with metal plates on the bottom to reinforce. Legs were installed I got off amazon, then, out of frame, two Ikea filing cabinets also hold it up.

Soul-sucking lighting, monitors at slightly uncomfortable angles, set up at a kitchen table, with a space heater pointed directly at your legs because your feet are on a cold wood floor in a poorly-insulated house, and you're smoking indoors.

Honestly, infuriating—the cable is extremely sensitive, so any nudge results in it blaring the force of a thousand suns.

what's wrong with mine? it's not the best, but it does it's job, I guess. Not that I am anywhere near you, but I'd take it if I were, still :)
Yours is far nicer though.
