thud oh sorry, brb..... my mouse just slid off my table.
You would probably want a wired mouse for this one... maybe it could work like a bungee?
Or a trackball mouse that's secured in place.
I think someone should invent a magnetic mouse
the startup i worked for got bought by a mega corp. They taught us devs how to use some intranet forms to order things we needed like keyboards and mice. These items would get approved or rejected by the engineering manager and it was pretty straightforward.
I put a request into the system for one of these (well one very similar, the Scorpion) thinking my boss would see the $50k request and jokingly refuse it.
What i did not know was that any request over a certain dollar amount triggered a review, by sending the request to my bosses boss. And over ANOTHER amount it did it again. I got a talking to but it was worth it to imagine the face on some VP seeing a dev try to order a $50k chair
I bet they were laughing too before pretending to be mad
yeah, i bet they were trying to think of ways to reject it for op but approve it for themselves
But the desk blocks me from accessing my penis????
You can't see it so you probably wouldn't be aware of its existence
This is a poorly designed masturbatorium
Nap?! This is not the place for a nap
For when you really need to post on Lemmy from the dentist's chair.
Pro tip: Add a background image to your video conference for privacy.
Most unsettling part here is toilet paper positioning (if not cat owner).As a cat owner, you’ll never catch my rolls in this blasphemous position. Kitty’s getting misted if he confuses hanging TP as a toy
Cat owner… my stupid bois have found a way to empty the roll even when it’s placed like that. Nothing is safe.
if not cat owner
Bend the cardboard roll on the inside so it becomes oval-shaped. That way it doesn't keep unrolling if they pull on it
That would not stop a cat
The toilet paper is correctly installed
When you wanna watch a movie, but too depressed to sit up, but also don't like staring at mobile devices: ⬆️
(Its too ridiculous for me personally, I'll just watch my Christopher Nolan Movie on my phone 🙃)
I don’t think people realise that these setups (less exaggerated) are usually for disabled or chronically ill people unable to sit up.
So me on a Wednesday morning after a questionable amount of moonshine the night before?
For some chronic illnesses. Yeah. But imagine that for life. And that’s the best you feel. It can get worse. Sometimes for long periods, you don’t know if you will get back even to the that “shitty best you feel”. And even at your best, you barely feel a fraction as good as a healthy person.
You don’t get to feel okay your birthday, or on christmas, or when you need to do something special. You just feel ill, like a bad hangover or bad flu, in perpetuity.
That’s the reality for a lot of severe chronic illnesses.
Can get a dental cleaning during meetings, awesome
Put a big hole in that incline and your proctologist can do their thing too!
Combining "company quarterly review" with "dental cleaning", while time efficient, is a kind of sensory combo that's right up there with "nuts and gum". Sounds great until you think it through a bit.
Edit: I've actually done the latter by accident. 1/10 - "I don't know what I expected."
“nuts and gum”
together at last!
A bonus is you can invite your dental hygienist over and have your teeth cleaned while you work
chokes to death on coffee
Dies by monitor to face
At least he died doing what he loved. Being in a Teams call about interdepartmental efficiencies.
Why isn’t this the standard?
Because the mouse falls off the table the second you start typing.
That looks a lot more expensive than just a VR headset and a recliner or bed you likely already own. And in VR you can pick whether it's 3 monitors, or one seamless curved triple-wide, no matter what you own in real life. And you can keep the monitor(s) with you when you stand up if you want.
But, what I'm curious about... how is this a "shoes on" occasion?

Work dress code.
Hehe, fair.
100% my S/O's goals
Doubles as a hospital baby delivery bed, so you can work through labor.
Oh America, what will you think up next?
Buddy I just did that today from my bed threw the laptop aside and slept 30 minutes more. Luckly I don't use my cam for meetings.
I would just fall asleep
When I see this I think of the week I worked flat on my back with sciatica. It was literally a pain my neck as I turned my head sideways to look a laptop on the side on the floor.
So I see a guy with bad sciatica, but a more comfortable work setup.
looks like it would also be a hell of a standing desk. and on wheels?
"Sorry, I didn't see him"
