I have never been so comfortable as I am in my dorm right now. Only have 2 other roommates in an apt made for 4, so I have a room to myself. Planning on making a new keyboard soon and building myself a server that isn't a shitty old AMD fire hazard.

It's a generic cantilever desk from an office supply place. I quite like that the second set of uprights is in the middle rather than both sets being toward the back though, makes it more stable.

It's genuinely the most comfortable mouse I've ever owned. It's nowhere near as fat as it looks in that picture, that's just the angle.

I see you have some new socks. Looks great.

That's a nice desk, though I'm not sure what one would actually use it for, certainly not suited for computer use.

Not to mention that I don't use the numpad 80% of the time, so having a full-size on my desk doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

I mostly wear it ironically now, I have a ponytail and bad acne as well. If I could stand having the smallest amount of facial hair I would be a walking stereotype.

I got a real treat for all you guys with your fancy keyboards and multiple screens. I stumbled on an old flash drive I thought I lost and found some pics I took of my old computer setup (around late 2014 early 2015) from when I was doing really bad.

I see your station every time I come to /g/ and bst, and while I find it fairly comfy, your gear is absolute shit tier. Why don't you just buy one or three good pieces of tech instead of buying a load of crap? That goes for everything in your room. Money is not an excuse, there are great cheap ips monitors etc that shit on everything you have.

>I still haven't seen a more sterile looking weeb themed room
Interesting for you to say that because I was thinking the same recently. The light coming from my cabinet is a very cold white color but I can change the temperature of the LEDs so I might try that in combination with less minimalism. I think other parts of the room are fine but those are less relevant to the picture.

what are you studying at umd? assuming it's something stem, how's the program? i think i'm transferring to a university of mn school next semester, but i don't know if i want to go to the twin cities campus or duluth

>>58904659
Duluth has a business degree and twin cities doesn't I've been told. I'm studying CS but I plan on dropping out since the degree is orientated towards programming and I'm aiming for network engineering. It's alright I guess, nothing special. I'll warn you though, the first 3 CS professors you meet are absolutely terrible, both as programmers and teachers, after that I've been told it gets better.

>>58904455
As with many things I've bought, I had lots of plans that I've yet to put into action... So far I've mainly just been using it as a little IRC device - SSH into my server, reconnect the screen session with all my irssi instances etc. But the GPIO/I2C/SPI/etc. pins along the top make it super handy for playing with sensors/actuators/etc. in a convenient package.

Gonna ask here since you guys seem knowledgeable on the subject

I have a new L shaped desk like this one. A bit on the cheap side. I have 2 monitors: A 16:10 one and a 21:9 one. The 21:9 is my primary monitor.

Where would you put these?

>>58903406

not him, but why should he put plaster up? What is wrong with exposed cinder block?

>>58905098
not that anon, but actually it makes a (theoretical) difference since our ears' horizontal "resolution" is way better than the vertical one they do act as a more spread out source and therefore a less precise stereo image that way, that's why no matter how big a speaker is it's almost always built vertically, and if not then at least the tweeters are centered and still vertically stacked with the midrange, pic related
but yeah, practically there's no difference with a speaker that small

what's wrong with the position of the screen? The top of the screen is at eye height if I sit upright, and it's still at a comfy height if I lean back or forward. The lighting just looks bright because of the hdr.

>>58905270
I personally think thats set up is god tier, the position of the screen is perfect. Also bright lighting is awesome I don't think I've ever heard of someone complaining about that.

>>58905262
interesting, i guess my ears just aren't that advanced because I have never noticed any difference.
>>58905270
>what's wrong with the position of the screen?
i didnt mean it in a bad way anon. to me it just looks very uncomfortable, the screen is to far away and to high up, it is going to mandate that you sit with a straight back all the way forward.

like i said im probably an aspie, so lighting bothers me a lot, specially white light like that, its fine at work but at home? fuck that. if you're happy with your bst that is all it matters.

what kind of monitor shelf is that though where did you get it?

>>58904007
I've had them on the speakers for a while..!

They're the beacons for the vive, just not plugged in when I don't use it.

>>58905067
They are XTZ and what the other anon said, as long as it's within the general area of your ears, doesn't matter that much for the size.
These are designed to stand on whatever side, even recommended as a center speaker.

>>58905356
>had them on the speakers for a while
What changed then? Speaker alignment only?

I kinda want a new 60% but I'm not sure what to get.
I just know I want something that doesn't have a non-standard shift.

Typing on it isn't as bad as I thought it'd be, but then again before I got it I thought it'd be physically painful to just punch in short terminal commands. It's okay for basic terminal usage & light IRC chatting. They're $69 atm, but add shipping & import tax/fees to that - if you buy one, you may as well add some of the actual $9 CHIP computers (the Pocket CHIP comes with one integrated) to your order just to get the most out of your shipping cost.

i been trying for years anon. I can't let go of the DOS mindset. Bash seems so terribly complex vs dos shell.

I been trying to understand the directory arrangements but its just so weird why would they be arranged that way it makes no sense

is initd.conf the same thing as config.sys/autoexec.bat ?

i need to try harder. I want to get an old pc specifically to learn this maybe a RPI, I dont want into VMs

>>58903847

>>58905581
>is initd.conf the same thing as config.sys/autoexec.bat ?
Honestly could not tell you anon I'm dog shit with DOS. I guess I was fortunate because the first computer I ever owned ran linux on it so I've been breaking and experimenting with stuff for years now. I do have a friend that recently started using bash after using DOS his whole life and said once he got the basics and put himself in that mindset everything just clicked for him. Best of luck anon I really do wish I could point in the direction of a fleshed out tutorial.

It was needed for the 400i, they sounded very bland otherwise. So the DAC itself is quite good and the amp is really strong for such a small portable package.

I wanted a portable one so I didn't need to plug it into the wall everytime I wanted to use it. Bringing it with me if I'm staying away.
It's expensive, but I feel like it's worth it.

Can't really stand any non-spirit alcohol besides cider tbf.

If it's used as a computer peripheral, it's a monitor. Just like you say a component is an Amp/DAC when it's plugged into your computer, but it's a receiver when you plug it into a dedicated audio system.

If you've got a problem with that, your real problem is autism.

>>58913535
KBT Pure Pro looks interesting, but if you're going for a layout like that with the arrow keys and everything, I'd suggest you pick up a tada68 as it comes with far better keycaps.

Other than that, there's the Anne Pro and the RK61, but honestly, I don't dabble in 60% a whole lot. What are you using now, a pok3r?

>>58904393
9/10 Really like this.

>>58913645
I'm using the Pure 60%
It's not the same as a Pure Pro. It doesn't have the arrow keys for starters.

I was looking at the Anne Pro but I'm not sure. The wireless is interesting but I've no idea how battery life on it is.

The tada68 looks wonderful but the non-standard shift key is going to be a pain in the ass when shopping for caps. Though the default caps look nice anyway. It's also expensive.

I call bullshit. 10GB is disproportionately huge for a build like this. At most they would've shipped this with a 6.4 GB hard drive.

Hello Aidan ;)

>>58918060

You smell correctly. €25 euro. Apart from the 3D printer and the cutting mat, that was the only thing I paid for, everything else was gifted.

>>58917852
Looks decent enough
Is that keyboard mechanical?
Mouse looks shite. You can get ok ones for like $5 - $10 off of amazon or aliexpress or some shit.

Noice

>>58918040

Shit laptop. How's the "smart home" working out?

>>58918263

I believe it's mechanical - guy who gave it to me said it was. He bought it from aliexpress, but hated the US layput so I got it as a freebie. Apart from the | & # keys being in the wrong place, I quite like it. Dont believe it's mechanical myself though, I think it's "mechanical feel". Need to tear down to be sure

Mouse absolute shit, but will replace on payday

>>58918308
fair enough.
It looks mechanical.
If it's from ali then it's likely using kailh switches which I've found tend to feel a bit mushier than Mx switches.

It took a long while to get used to US layout KBs considering I'm in the UK but I can't stand to use ISO UK keyboards anymore.
US Keyboards are better for programming too imo.

If it doesn't work then make sure your Keyboard Layout in the OS is set to US International not just US.

There was a guy posting here who had an absolutely sweet setup with a thinkpad in a dockstation, IBM model M (iirc) a lenovo thinkVision monitor.

Can you, or someone else who maybe saved the picture, post it again?

Drunk and tired, off to bed soon. You?

It's up there on the table, I'm using it as I write while BSG is playing on the big screen. Played some SCII before heading here.

>Logitech MX Master
thank you, was searching for a comfortable mouse after my g400 death

>>58918868
Well this is certainly comfortable.
If you get one I hope you enjoy it! It comes in some lovely colours too.

>>58918861
Is that scotch I see? You have good taste my friend.
What are you writing?

>>58918728
They sell that in this color?

>>58918728
Move your MX Master from side to side quickly, hear that clanging noise?

:3

>>58918917
Yes. I love it.
It also comes in navy and some brown & gold colouration.

>>58918918
No noise when I do it.

Liar lol.

>>58919018
Seriously what the fuck are you talking about?

>>58919054
The mouse wheel mechanism that they use in the Anywhere MX, MX Master, and Marathon M705 all make clanging noises when you move the mouse quickly because the scroll wheel slides from side to side a tiny bit.

Also you are a gigantic lying faggot.

>>58919116
Why exactly is that a problem?
I have to shake the thing pretty fucking violently to get any kind of sound out of it whatsoever.
There is no reason I'd ever have to move the thing that fast.

>>58919136
Mechanically it really isn't a problem. Some people may not like it though. A heavy flywheel that literally slams to the left and right when you move the mouse quickly, you can feel the thunderous vibrations jarring your fingers.

I mean its fine if you are used to operating a jackhammer but it triggered me when I first tried one.

>>58919168
I had that problem with my G502 but I'm not having it with the MX Master.
You must've gotten an excessively loose one or something. Mine doesn't do that at all.
Might be because it's relatively new though.

>>58918813
