I'd get tired of picking the mouse up off the floor. Wonder how long it would take for me to learn to not drop it - like an astronaut just back from the space station.

You'd just need a slightly magnetic mouse + mouse pad, I bet it already exists

I used Velcro on a mouse for a slightly different configuration and it worked pretty well, but it was a trackball. Had an apron that I stuck my mouse and split keyboard on so they could be used sitting, standing, seiza, cross legged, etc.

Why he got jeans and shoes on??!?

[–] NerdInSuspenders@leminal.space 10 points 1 month ago

It’s called fashion, look it up!

It's casual Friday. Jeans are ok to wear to work on those days.

And then, seconds later, it all falls on top of you as you crash onto the ground.

A man can dream.

That stupid frame at the bottom screws with my eyes. Is it some MC Escher illusion? I really can't tell if this thing is real.

...yeah, the first thing coming off are those shoes + pants...

Not even going to buy him dinner first?

I feel much more business-like when I wear pants. I keep pants on until all the meetings are done.

Or wanted!? 🤪

I work at home. In my bedroom. My gamer computer has a couple monitors, but the big one is the 43 inch TV, pointed right at my bed. After all the meetings are done for the day, and most of the complicated stuff is over with, I move to that computer and relax there propped up on pillows with my keyboard on my stomach, mouse on another pillow, perfectly reclined, much like this guy with all his gear, except I don't need assistance removing myself.

... but ... that has to be some photoshop shit. It looks like the xray machine at the dentist office with some monitors attached. Probly radioactive.

Not sure why you are downvoted. This has to be terrible for your body. Maybe unless you have some very specifc spinal issue or something like that I guess?

Maybe if you spend 24 hours a day in it, if you get up periodically to stretch throughout your work fay and make sure to exercise in your free time you'll be fine

Hey, this is a real thing, but it affects us all. If you do office work, you need to get up and move.
