>>8055857Hi ferns
>>8055867I need to get a couple of plants for the office. Maybe I'll do that during lunch. Is that OK with you?
>>8055868>Is that OK with you?why shouldn't it be :D
>>8055870Idk.. just had to check.
>>8055857My buttstation
>>8055870Ok I bought all the plants and the fancy pots and rocks will be here Saturday. Is that OK?
this board needs more ultrawide papers
I got a shelve for the PC. I did this for a number of reasons, but mostly so I could have somewhere better to keep my camera, than on the shelf to the left of my desk, which was annoying to get to. I also need longer cables for pretty much everything now.
>>8056041Second picture, cable management will be fixed one day.
>>8055867how are you doing Jensen huang? can you give me rtx 5090 free pls?
>>8055902I like the wallpaper
>>8056042What's in the terrarium?
>>8056135Mealworms. Much more healthy than Lay's potato chips.
Clean space
>>8056135A Leopard Gecko named Charlie>>8056139Superworms actually.
>>8056147Fucking zoomer ass gecko
>>8055857Looks neat.What kind of keyboard is that ?
>>8056157He's technically part of Gen Alpha
>>8056169https://github.com/MakotoKurauchi/helixBuild it yourself. If you buy it pre-built you don't deserve it.
>>8055867Love the two ThinkCentres. I have thought many times about picking up one of those on the cheap to leave turned on running Linux instead of having to boot my big rig and use a bunch of power to do a little writing.
>>8056176Thanks for the tip! Now I only need... a fully fitted-out workshop ...
>>8056218Of course I fucked up the formatting. Read this one instead. >>8056211Oh c'mon it's not that bad. Soldering supplies:https://a.co/d/03BS4jqhttps://a.co/d/iANW0LN (not necessary, but recommended)https://a.co/d/i36LYsvHelix supplies:https://keyhive.xyz/shop/helix-kithttps://a.co/d/f33KQMJAliexpress/google search:Choc switches: buy a tester kit to find the ones you like, then 64 of the one you want.Keycaps: you can either 3d print them or Google for some.The Amazon order is your initial investment that will allow you to build as many as you want. That's like 60 bucks without the fancy arm station. Use Gerber files from github once you have enough experience and you can order PCBs from jlcpcb.com for super cheap. I've built 3 helix keebs so far. Here's more kits and such if you don't want to wait a while on China shipping:https://www.littlekeyboards.com/
>>8056219Actually, I shouldn't start posting as soon as I wake up. The helix kit above doesn't support choc switches, so you would have to order the PCB from here: https://www.littlekeyboards.com/collections/helix-pcb-kits/products/helix-pcb-kit20 bucks.Or, like I said, gerber.zip and order from jlpcb, get a 10-pack and you can make 5 Helix keebs. Sell 4 of them and you'd probably get all of your money back. Here's the Gerber files:https://github.com/Cipulot/helixhschoc/tree/main/PCB/hotswap_choc.zip the "gerber" folder and upload it into jlcpcb.com. Set order to 10 pieces. Hit order. Boom. Done.

>>8055865You seem like a guy who isn't into the mindless hate thing, good for you!>>8055999Fuck yeah theta gang trips, do you really have a financial youtube channel?>>8056041get some lights behind your monitors, but you can't find a less glare spot in your place?>>8056145I would hire you just for playing Apex Legends instead of Warzone.>>8056171Really tuff looking lizz :D>>8056230Feel a bit privileged to be able to see into your room, you seem like a guy who is definitely an interesting personality
>>8056230>do those trypophobia mice get filth in their holes easily?I wouldn't know. I wash my hands a lot and keep a very clean environment as you can see in OP.
>>8055999Definitely needs more ultrawide papes.>>8054441I got the new desk set up. I find myself really enjoying my time in this space, but have many more changes in mind.
Welcome to hell

>>8056267
>>8056219>>8056221Ohhh, nice. Thanks for the tips!
>>8056305>unzipsThere's one more tip I forgot to mention..
>>8056230No, I wash hands up to 80 times a day, it is unrelated though, obviously this kind of mouse is not for dirty dudes
>>8056254Is that Jerry Seinfeld's living room as a lego set??
>>8056345Yes it is. Christmas gift from my mom from a few years back
>>8056245How are the Jamos? I know they're basically Klipsch speakers but I've been thinking of getting a pair anyway.Also, where the cans at
>>8056603Disgusting. I hate it.
>>8056555 (checked)Sennheiser HD660S I keep in a drawer nearby to reduce the cat hair stuck to the ear pads. The Jamos are decent. Nothing earth shattering, but punchy enough to enjoy in an apartment setting. I reached a point where I decided "this is good enough" and decided to just enjoy what I have rather than keep tumbling down the audiophile hole. I might do a significant upgrade when my income changes. What impressed me more is the S.M.S.L. SA300 chi-fi stereo that drives them. Impressive little device that can play Bluetooth from my phone so I don't always have to turn on the PC (helps focus). It's a nice pairing for a great price.>>8055999Forgot to tell you that yes, I checked.
>>8056147>>8056171Reminds me of my Leo, Flame. Been almost 2 years since she passed away :(
>>8056660How old?
>>80566635 years
>>8056665How the fuck did you kill your leopard gecko in 5 years? My guy is 13 years old
>>8056659>decided to just enjoy what I have rather than keep tumbling down the audiophile holeI aspire to reach this level of zen lol. I might have to check that out. I've been using the Topping MX3s for awhile for my speakers and headphones but I've thought of upgrading to a dedicated headphone amp and dac setup, then getting something separate for the speakers. Also I like how from your picture it looks like the amp is about the same height as your Schiit stack. Very nice.
>>80566038.4/10.
>>8056697Why is your monitor tilted down? how short are you?
Looking at new monitors, I can't believe how much improvement and price drop there has been since I bought mine in early 2020! Can't justify a new one yet, but damn! I will have to start getting cheaper monitors and upgrade twice as often if this keeps up.>>8056697Very nice color theme. I wish I had gotten a case with wood. Haven't bothered to make the light on my case yellow, can't figure out why it won't work.>>8056760Some people slouch way back, lowering eye level (I do often).
this is before, a few hours ago
this is now, after todays upgrade. All monitors are now floating on arms for more desk space.
>>8056245I like your setup beside faggot keyboard and cutting the top and bottom off your display
>>8056697I love the wood on your PC case. I wan
>>8057016Funny, these are the two things I for sure plan to change down the road. The Anne Pro 2 is overrated, I just reverted back to my Logitech K810 the other day. I was just looking at other monitors yesterday, any you recommend?
>>8055857
>>8057014Finally, Serbian poster
>>8057024Go for it. I'm so glad I switched and toned down the RGB. It's the Fractal North case, very easy to build in too.>>8057031Not the same anon but unless you really hate the ultrawide I'd recommend getting an OLED ultrawide. Throw that bitch on an arm while you're at it and I challenge you not to love it. I have the Alienware AW3423DW now and it's amazing, I don't think I can go back to an IPS panel.
>>8057142Thank you for your input. I was looking at that monitor, actually. I do want an OLED monitor if I can find the right one. I hadn't realized you can now have OLED, high refresh rate, and high pixel count with minimal downsides. But that guy is right, you are paying top dollar for a monitor while shaving off a bunch of pixels when you could have true 4K. It is a meme in that regard. When I got mine, I thought having a few less pixels would be better for gaming because I would be able to get higher frame rates and make use of the higher refresh rate of my monitor. Now, I'm not so sure.I have formed the opinion over the years that multiple monitors are also a meme. You can really only look at one thing at a time, and it is very easy to alt+tab. More monitors are just a distraction, and there are always various issues associated with having multiple monitors. The operating system is called "Windows," after all. You can move windows around, shuffle them, and even have multiple desktops designed for specific tasks. I don't think I will go back to having multiple monitors again. What I do want is one large monitor with a very high pixel count. I like the idea of the Dell 8K monitor, but it has bad reviews. I guess there are some quality issues, and you have to run two cables to even get it to run at 60FPS. My current monitor (only 4 years old now) runs at 144Hz (overclock to 165Hz) and I have a hard time going back to 60Hz on my laptop. I think a 4K OLED monitor with high refresh rate might be the current best option. Or possibly some 5K or 6K monitor, but I haven't found one that calls to me.
>>8057015Love the monitor arms>>8057074cyberpunk/10>>8056697love the colors. really like that wood panel.
>>8057014Is that the Kosovo flag on your wall?
>>8056254I wish I had a lava lamp.
Made some changes from last time
>>8057609Excellent photo composition, even the Abilify.>>8057611Improving
>>8057584You could buy one?I thought of buying one but got a plasma ball instead.
>>8057675For convoluted reasons, Mathmos isn't allowed to sell in the US and the lava lamp brands that can be sold aren't worth it quality-wise. I don't want to deal with expensive shipping forwarding and then a voltage converter and all that shit. Maybe someday.
>>8055867stop being lazy and get a damn woodstain faggot
>>8056603This is literally the best setup I've ever seen. Where can i cop everything?
It's messy but it's mine. New-ish layout but I like it so far. Have to balance work machine and home machine when wfh so it works. Will shitpost later.
>>8055857I tried a keyboard like that in Tokyo and found it impossible to use. I'm sure it's just a learning curve, def. looks cool tho. What's up with the thermos thing? >>8055865Clean. What's the little monitor below your main? I'd be interested in a little side monitor if that's what it is. I think I have the same work laptop haha>>8055867Glad you got extra plants, decent set up. The wolf is a little cringe but I have some cringe shit too lmao >>8055902functional, cool shelves. >>8055999trips speak the truth. Interesting book anon I'm an invest-fag too. Could use a lamp and def a keyboard upgrade. >>8056041>>8056042>>8056147Cute pet Gnome guy. You ever use the VR? Mine stays in storage nowadays largely.>>8056145I dig this. Simple, functional, could maybe use more lighting. >>8056230hard to tell what I'm looking at. I like the green lamp and vertical monitor. >>8056245Very clean, maybe go for a monitor arm for more desk space to play with? Looks good tho. >>8056254I'd want a bigger desk but comfy vibes here with the lava lamps>>8056267Strange angles... Why the two desk chairs?? >>8056522Comfy but hard to tell what's going on >>8056603I'd put the actual PC case below for more room but seems functional enough. Is that a leather deskmat? >>8056697Love this but don't quite understand the monitor placement. >>8057015huge upgrade! Now get some art or more plants! Very satisfying before / after pics >>8057074So much going on here.. I hate it a little but the mini fridge must be convenient >>8057252Needs lighting upgrade like a decent lamp but everything else is clean. Being in the corner would drive me nuts so I'd want to change it around. >>8057445Sweet keeb... I have a model M that was manufactured on my exact Bday... Never use the fucker anymore but love that bad boy. >>8057609Nice, I'd suggest a keeb upgrade and don't know wtf those white balls are. Comfy tho. >>8057611bb room>>8058035
>>8058037Not as often. I'm in a rented home now, and I attached the cameras with some "heavy duty" velcro and they were falling off. So it's not being used right now.
>>8058038Hear that. I got the wireless quest 2 for cheap and use it more since I don't have to fuck with cameras ect.. Still out of sight out of mind so don't go for it that often.
>>8058037>learning curveYeah there for sure is. I definitely prefer it now, though. I don't think it would increase speed or anything like that, just comfort.>thermos thingThat's a tea bewer. You put the leaves and hot water on one end then twist the middle filter thing after steeping so the liquid goes into the other end. Then, you twist off the side with the liquid and drink it out of it.It's a portable way to brew "gongfu" style. https://crimsonlotustea.com/collections/seattle-inventory/products/gongfu-anywhere-the-gongfu2go-portable-tea-brewer-seattle-inventory
>>8058040Damn that's a neat tea bewer! I've always been interested in tea but could never take the plunge as I'm a coffee drinker.. I do have some nice tea I bought in Japan I haven't tried yet... May make a cup now...
Working night shift so no plants, got them out on the balcony instead.Thinking of making a terrarium/aquarium but again dont want to fuck with the natural day/night cycle so probably holding off on that unless I get a UV lamp for plants.
>>8058163A lot to like with this one imo... I'm not big on the toys but an aquarium would make this excellent. I'd want arms on the desk chair though.
>>8058172cheers mate.Toys wise, I like the anime they come from and dig the aesthetic. Moving to a new place in the next few months which will let me have a spot that the fish/plants can have their own day/night cycle that is normal without me annoying them with staying up all night.Arms on the chair, I regularly cross my legs or sit with one leg to the side so siting comfortably for me requires i remove the arms on a chair.Any recommendations on fish to start with? was thinking of starting with a aquatic setup terrarium style and then adding fish. Ive been watching yt vids on keeping those clean and moss free. Looks like a big effort but still keen to try it out.

>>8058188>>8058188noice dubsPost wallpapers please?
>>8058174>>8058035Yeah man, this is my setup with a big ass fish bowl and I have a couple other small tanks. I have moss and zebra danios in the bowl along with some ghost shrimp (all super cheap). Ideal setup bc I'm a super lazy fish keeper so I never have to clean the tank and just let it rock. I've had good luck with guppies and beta fish as well so you have lots of options for a desk tank. GL anon, post pics when you get there!
>>8058188Nice dubs and station... Your PC looks like an air fryer.
>>8058190nuff said, heading to the old pet shop now when i can. Might set up a lengthy 60cm-1m fish tank for the new place to make a set piece and have a fuck tonne of small fish. Ill post when i get the setup prepper and post the final.
>>8058189
>>8058191This is not a pc. Its a subwoofer

1/2Keyboard sits on my lap of course
2/2I stretch my legs on the pillow when I chill and watch shows.
^Forgot pic, embarrassing >.<
>>8058037Monitor arm is next >:)
I don't get how you guys put so little distance between the screen and your eyes and be ok with it.I put mine as far as i could with an arm and I still feel like it's too close.Also, my case is put this way because my ethernet cable to my router is slightly too short.
>>8058320My monitor is far away but it's very simple:1) Different amounts of space and different furniture arrangements.2) Different budgets and available furniture. Not all stores have deep desks for sale when that anon was in the market. Bigger desks cost more.3) Different eyesight. Some people can't see very far and do or don't want to wear glasses at PC.4) You have one of the widest aspect ratios on the market and would have to comically turn your head if it wasn't so far back.Did you just not want to think it through or was this some bizarre attempt at ego posturing?
>>8055857this isn't my battle station. I have posted my battle station before and a lot of anons thought it was very kino and "based" though here's a cursed battle station of a person me and my friend know so enjoy anons!
>>8058249ARE YOU BAREFOOT WHEN YOU DO THIS? *smacks lips* mmmmmm yeah you are
>>8058199>Tight, have you considered curved monitors?I promised myself I would use these monitors for a long time since they were $650 each when I bought them.That being said I've never used a curved monitor, I don't think I would like them though.
>>8058249What shows do you watch?
>>8058527I have lived alone since my recent divorce, so I wear as little as possible. Before you cringe too hard, just know that I usually have a sheet on the couch and keep my place clean, ok? Not an animal here.>>8058576Just finished Clarkson's Farm (highly recommend), Fallout (good), and Invincible (great). I plan on watching Season 5 of Star Trek Discovery soon, but first I want to re-watch Drive and both Blade Runners so I can get Ryan Gosling's help refining my social skills after that breakup.
>>8058596It's ok anon i am going through a divorce right now as well and being naked as much as possible once I have my own apartment is pretty high on my motivation list when I get my own place
I'll post it here too, why not. No I am not going to angle my speakers, I like them this way because of the sound not the aesthetics.>>8058468 - I do not enjoy this>>8058320 - I really like your skylight, I would like something like this, if it did not rain here every day and was not 30-35>>8058264 - very asethetic
>>8058596I liked every single one of the old Startreks (even deep space 9 until it went full soap opera, and voyager), but I couldn't get into discovery, and Picard was just awful.
>>8058468I really need to know how tall the person who uses this setup is.
>>8055999>>8056697Is the sidepanel see-through on this case? I looked online but the "solid" option looks sort of see-through still.
>>8058623This case has a glass side panel, or perorated metal panel option. There is no solid metal option, unless one from a Define 7 C or Meshify 2C fit.
>>8058626Then it's just my third world country lying in the options
>>8058614It honestly makes everything so much better. Stay strong, anon.>>8058619I'm going to have to agree with you on Picard. It was cool to have the gang back together, but I felt like the show was being done just because they could do it, and not out of true inspiration like in the past. Another one I really enjoyed was Lower Decks. Silly, but fun.
>>8058037What does bb room mean?
>>8058250Where do you live? The outdoors there looks comfy
>>8058654Yeah, Picard just didn't feel like a Star Trek show. I haven't seen Lower Decks, but if you thought it was a fun show and enjoyed it, you should Check out The Orville. Season 1 is a comedy, but season 2 gets more serious and 3 is the same. I enjoyed it thoroughly and it scratched the Star Trek itch.
>>8058660California. I just moved, and this city is ranked as one of the top happiest cities in America, largely due to balance of nature and industry. The divorce rate is statically lower here as well, funnily enough. I just try not to think about the ridiculous cost of living.
>>8058661Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out.
>>8058618Ok I gotta ask what those speakers are. I like the pink GameBoy and the lamps, too. I used to have something very similar on my night stands. Always wondered about that mouse, it looks like you might not use it often?
>>8058682Speakers are overnight Sensations knock downs by parts express. If you have the room I recommend the dual woofer MTM overnight Sensations.I use the CST mouse about 95% of the time, and use the g604 just to switch it up. Yesterday just happened to be "regular mouse" day.
>>8056603The drawer thing under your screen - does it have a specific name? because I need one. Right now I'm using a thick hardback textbook to prop up my monitor. Also, I'd like that green mat too.
>>8058468Ah.. the dreaded scuff marks on the floor caused by feet over a long time.
>>8058618>furry desktopI hope you're not doing anything inappropriate with that cute fox plushie
>>8056254That black rug is genuinely unsettling me.
>>8058876Naw, it was a gift from my now ex-wife. She got me lots of cute fox stuff which is everywhere around my house now. Plushies are sacred to me, a reminder of youth, innocent times, and just comforting.
>>8058889Just joking :)I have one cute plush of a toxic mold spore (pic related) from Giant Microbes. They're all conceptually weird but adorable! There are even ones of coronavirus, AIDS and other sex disease microbes too.
>>8058876you know, i am also a furry and whatever sick shit you're implying never even crossed my mind. I saw you say you were joking, but still. Funny.
>>8058907I think my mind was on furries doing depraved things because earlier I rewatched the Internet Historian's video about the disaster that was the Rainfurrest Furry convention. Hotel was trashed, several arrests, gloryhole drilled into bathroom stalls, people walking around wearing dirty diapers and leaving them on parked cars and other degenerate and hilarious behaviour...I kinda wished I was there...
Im back /bst/.This time i just moved, room isn't the best right now but my temp setup has this vibe going.Got my minisforum hx80g to the left on the lamp shelf below.Old station: >>8035621
>>8056230The maho wallpaper, camel cigs, vape, casio watches, programming books.. Are we kindred spirits or what?
Ignore the mess in the back and underneath, I'm still cleaning up and getting new furniture later on.
>>8058890 - that thing is oddly cute, despite the weird vibe. >>8058910 - I like everything about this. Pretty adorable looking home office. 11/10>>8058918 - things like this are why I do not go to furry/starwars/star trek conventions. Hell just going to trading card shops with my ex-wife and now my current partner are bad enough where half the people smell like greasy fritos and bad BO. I like furry art, I like furry comics, I like furry romance novels and I like the porn sometimes. I do not like fursuits, or "furries the people" though as a general rule.>>8058920 - I like your minimalist style, and the plants combined with the dark espresso stain seems cozy. Should probably ditch the adult pacifier though.
