Most unsettling part here is toilet paper positioning (if not cat owner).
nexguySo it would look like you are chest deep in a toilet. It's the way I prefer it anyway.

The toilet paper is loaded backwards
Every time my ex would reload, she loaded it this way. Every time I found it this way, I would reverse it
Excuse me, that's the best way to load toilet paper. The best overall, however, is a bidet. Ascend, my child.
Is there a way on Lemmy to downvote and upvote at the same time?
The first part of your statement says you should up your meds, the second part is lucid though.
Lemmy needs to distinguish itself with character-level voting. Somebody made a great post but unironically used an interrobang? Hit 'em right in the analytics.
What did you just say about the interrobang‽

Cat owner… my stupid bois have found a way to empty the roll even when it’s placed like that. Nothing is safe.
rovingnothing29A bonus is you can invite your dental hygienist over and have your teeth cleaned while you work

RedPostItNoteDies by monitor to face
At least he died doing what he loved. Being in a Teams call about interdepartmental efficiencies.
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
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.
SoleInvictusThat's me today! I'm playing my favorite game: chronic illness or acute illness?
MissJinxthis does no look confortable
If you use both hands to type the mouse would either fall off or be damgling from its cord
I think it's a trackball stuck in place but I could be wrong
Use a trackball and tape the base to the desk?
Tiny jet engine that thrusts uphill to counteract gravity whenever your hand isn't on the mouse
FaridCan get a dental cleaning during meetings, awesome
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."
SkullgridPut a big hole in that incline and your proctologist can do their thing too!
thud oh sorry, brb..... my mouse just slid off my table.
Doubles as a hospital baby delivery bed, so you can work through labor.

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.
But the desk blocks me from accessing my penis????
Good luck getting up to pee.
Plenty of places to hang a catheter
they make these things called condom catheters
I wish I didn't know what words are.
it's not a sounding tool, it's a "i have significant trouble getting or staying up, or significant trouble with urinary continence, or both: and have a penis, and do not want to use a traditional catheter" tool. dad used them when he was dying and losing control of (all of) his muscles so he wouldn't wet the bed at night at 65. it's basically a condom that, instead of having a little bubble for semen at the end, it has a non-inserted catheter, so you can urinate into it. they make at-home catheter management a lot easier, as foleys only safely last a month to my knowledge.

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.
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'd get tired of picking the mouse up off the floor. Wonder how long it would take for me to learn to not drop it - like an astronaut just back from the space station.
Probably a trackball.
I'd rather die.
You will.
Promise?
Trackpad.
You'd just need a slightly magnetic mouse + mouse pad, I bet it already exists
I used Velcro on a mouse for a slightly different configuration and it worked pretty well, but it was a trackball. Had an apron that I stuck my mouse and split keyboard on so they could be used sitting, standing, seiza, cross legged, etc.
Why he got jeans and shoes on??!?
It’s called fashion, look it up!
It's casual Friday. Jeans are ok to wear to work on those days.
And then, seconds later, it all falls on top of you as you crash onto the ground.
That stupid frame at the bottom screws with my eyes. Is it some MC Escher illusion? I really can't tell if this thing is real.
A man can dream.
...yeah, the first thing coming off are those shoes + pants...
Not even going to buy him dinner first?
I feel much more business-like when I wear pants. I keep pants on until all the meetings are done.
the setup i never knew i needed
Or wanted!? 🤪
I work at home. In my bedroom. My gamer computer has a couple monitors, but the big one is the 43 inch TV, pointed right at my bed. After all the meetings are done for the day, and most of the complicated stuff is over with, I move to that computer and relax there propped up on pillows with my keyboard on my stomach, mouse on another pillow, perfectly reclined, much like this guy with all his gear, except I don't need assistance removing myself.
... but ... that has to be some photoshop shit. It looks like the xray machine at the dentist office with some monitors attached. Probly radioactive.

Hey, this is a real thing, but it affects us all. If you do office work, you need to get up and move.
Maybe if you spend 24 hours a day in it, if you get up periodically to stretch throughout your work day and make sure to exercise in your free time you'll be fine
Not sure why you are downvoted. This has to be terrible for your body. Maybe unless you have some very specifc spinal issue or something like that I guess?
