I’m not using it as much as I should be, but it is genuinely a pleasant improvement over sitting all day long. A really expensive chair can do you a lot of good, but nothing beats the mobility of standing. When I read something or watch something I can do some light exercise for my legs, squatting a tiny bit and moving my upper body left and right for example. For a lot of people it can be a good start to moving their body a bit more.
If you go running every other day you don’t need it, I’ll give you that.
I have four screens from four different manufacturers, with three different sizes, three different resolutions, two different aspect ratios and two different refresh rates.
Two of these are resurrected from the dead of which one has a high voltage cold cathode driver externally plastered to it’s back (because the internal failed and there was no space inside) and the other one shining from every pore because I “replaced” one cold cathode tube by plastering the “replacement” tube somewhere in the housing of the monitor to fool the driver into thinking all tubes are fine (one was defect, the driver doesn’t work without every tube connected and putting the replacement in the place where it should belong is too much work).
I am basically the evil necromancer of chaotic evil.
I hope an Imgur link is fine. If not please tell me which (multi) image hoster is fine here on lemmy. Here are a few pictures I took of my setup and the necromanced parts
I’m Chaotic Neutral (although my vertical monitor is on the left). It was an experiment that stuck because I like being able to read more lines of code at once.
