• I still love RGB madness, but it's gonna be warm white and natural light for me moving forward.

  a karlby butcher block from IKEA and an autonomous.ai standing desk frame. Works great for me! Source: about 1 year ago

• Where can I buy sit/stand desks in India?

  How did you manage an autonomous.ai desk since they don't have shipping options to India by default? Source: about 1 year ago

• Thanks to PCMR advice, finally stopped buying crappy "gaming chairs" and bought a real chair to game with. And it vibrates and heats up. On sale for just over $200.

  How do you like the desk? I'm currently using an autonomous.ai sit to stand desk (i never stand because for whatever reason I can't problem solve as well while standing) and I have a secretlab chair that I think is "just OK" (titan evo 2022), but I've been looking at their desks for a while now.

• Any chair recommendations for therapists? What do you use?

  For telehealth, which is the majority of my practice, I use an autonomous.ai. It's not cheap, but not as expensive as many other similar chairs. Completely changed my life. Source: over 1 year ago

• Does core strengthening actually work?

  I actually currently work an office job, though I do have the luxury of getting up frequently. That is the first thing I would recommend, is standing and stretching as often as you can.

• what machines have you used for development, and what do you prefer?

  I use MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid-2014) with Manjaro as OS using i3 as a window manager. It isn't perfect, but I'm thrilled with it. I have been a Mac OS user for the last 15 years and wouldn't change what I have now for a Mac OS because I don't need more than what I'm using for development. Source: 10 months ago

• Machine for pentesting and general use?

  For daily usage I really like kubuntu with i3wm, but it takes some configuration and getting used to the shortcuts, but it's well worth it. Source: 11 months ago

• What's the difference between Gnome and KDE? Do applications written for one work in the other?

  Some window managers are meant to be used as-is, and provide a minimalist yet functional environment that use very little resources or give power users an almost HUD-like interface. Examples of those window managers are OpenBox and i3wm for X, and Weston and Hyprland for Wayland. Source: 11 months ago

  I did use i3 exclusively for a few years. The reasons I chose it were. Source: 11 months ago
