How tf do you get in and out of that contraption? Or maybe you just... Don't.

[-] BillyClark@piefed.social 6 points 2 months ago

It doesn't have a built-in toilet, so I think you eventually have to get up.

Who needs VR headsets when you can just cover your whole body in screens?

Unfortunately you have committed the mortal sin of enjoying the tainted work of the Thinking Machines and must now be burned at the stake, sorry

[-] zbyte64@awful.systems 11 points 2 months ago

Nah, the sin is posting it without a trigger warning.

Indeed, brother. It is heresy of the highest order.

So, I've been crippled for a while, and have the poor mans version of this:

[] (==) ||

[] Wall

(==) Bed

|| Computer Desk

Got a bunch of surgery recovery pillows to prop me into an inclined position, Computer Desk just has a TV on it, got a wireless keyboard, wireless mouse, and i have a folded up sheet with an ergo mouse pad.

... most people can probably pull something like this off, with a $50 - $100 set of differently arangeable surgery pillows, and I guess a wireless (i suggest 2.4 ghz) mouse and keyboard.

Resolution on the TV ain't great, but I've only got a Steam Deck, so.... beyond 1920 x 1080 is generally a bad idea anyway.

Do you have one of those bedside hospital tables? They're super convenient.

News@11: a 32 year old man died today after rescuers where unable to free him from the collapse of his advanced home office monitor configuration. His last words were: delete my browser history, I can't reach my mouse...

Tch, didn't even have a deadman switch, amateur.

Say what you will but VR headsets have become much smaller since this photo was taken.

Knowing how insanely heavy my 49" screen is, I'd not be able to lie down comfortably like that. They're screwed if that monitor arm decides enough is enough.

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

I barely know what to do with my second monitor. It spends 90% of its time displaying a background picture and some desklets. I really only use it when I'm writing to have a browser and notes open for reference.

[-] folekaule@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

As a developer, I find the great bang for buck is two monitors, with minor benefits for each additional monitor. Examples of use for extra monitors:

  • code on main monitor (or more if I have multiple projects open)
  • app I'm working on
  • documentation
  • Stack Overflow/Search/AI chat
  • Team chat/Slack
  • Email
  • infrastructure/performance monitors, logs
  • Mandatory reboot notice from the IT department shoved in a corner until I can reboot without losing work

Of course if you have a large monitor you can tile windows instead of having N screens. Virtual desktop also exist.

[-] BillyClark@piefed.social 9 points 2 months ago

Common other uses for multiple monitors:

Usually your main monitor is in landscape mode, so a monitor in portrait mode can be used to view material that works better in portrait. I use one to read manga. Yes, you can also do two pages side by side in landscape, but I prefer it larger, especially with manga which often has tiny details that are interesting.

If you are using full screen mode on your main monitor, then you can have other information on your other monitors. Lots of people play games and have their voice chat apps on other monitors so they don't need to overlay them on the game. Or you can have notes open or something.

Lots of people like things in the background like tv shows or livestreams or podcasts. I find that distracting, so I don't do it, but a lot of people do.

Sometimes, depending on your profession or hobbies, it's good to have certain notes always visible, when they would normally get hidden behind other windows on your primary monitor.

They want US$7,000 for a chair and some monitor support arms? I want to try one, but not that much.
