what do you guys do on your computers that isn't Web browser, discord or games?
>>106785750Collect (hoard) files, watch TV, blast metal, write documents, fuck around with directories, draw, and sometimes I'll dust off Sony Vegas when I feel like torturing myself
>>106780359brotato is that a piss bottle
>>106785982This IS /bst/ we're talking about. There's a very good chance it is.

>>106787752Why this versus a normal printer?
>>106788991yes
>>106789674Ribbon is dirt cheap and I like the way it sounds. I have a bother laser printer on my network for anything that isn't just for me. Mostly the same reason I use CRTs. SOVL
>>106782330It is the room where I got a minor case of severe brain damage.
>>106789794Interesting. Can you share some things you've printed?
>>106780359>pissbottle>>106780418you really could benefit from an external monitor>>106780634this setup looks lonley>>106781050is that a streaming light at the top left?>>106783448what's that laptop?>>106783872cute dogger, whats it's name?>>106785015where's the maga hat?>>106787752this pic looks like you are an unemployed lonley alkoholic>>106789043I think I had the same CRT back in the days>>106789576I cringe at these setups, but whatever you like^^ I wouldn't have the courage to invite someone in such a home

>>106789576That looks like Grant Amato's room
>>106789853I'm gonna buy one monitor soonIs that a small pc case?
I've returned to a single FHD monitor and I have zero regrets.. There is so much space around me it feels refreshing. My effectiveness will probably drop a bit but who cares anyway
>>106790844>Is that a small pc case?the one on the left is a Lenovo ThinCentre that runs proxmox plus some containers, I actually got a second one in meantime, dedicated to Jellyfin. the case on the right is a ICY Box HDD Jbod Enclosure
>>106785982home made lemonade
>>106792352Not falling for that one again.
>>106789853Anon, why didn't you tell me it was a workstation in the desktop thread? I find it hard to believe you added a graphics card to this thing.
>>106793433my workstation is sitting under the desk, not on it
>>106789576At least the view outside the window is nice.
>>106789849I'd print banners. Is Print Shop Deluxe still around?

>>106789576teto is better than miku btw
>>106789576finally a nice looking room itt
>>106785750this smells of glow but ill bitefilms, programming, editing software (blender, davinciresolve, GIMP, darktable, REDplayer, sony vegas), make music with various DAWs (reaper, ableton, audacity, renoise), VCV rack, openmediavault, xigmaNAS, run virtual machines of old OS and and software, for example i have a nice modded ipod 5 gen so i use an old version of itunes in a VM to put music on it, eventually gonna do rockbox and transfer with a different way, but this works good for testing/formatting old ipods i come across, apply this same sort of process for any number of older electronics or programs/systems, there's a great deal that can be done, emulated, other things include mandlebrot viewer and other fractal math programs, wireshark, soulseek, nmap, edit books for my kindle using stuff like calibre etc, also integrate my internal networking between my machines, sometimes this involves using my computer to format SD cards, SSDs, flash drives and writing things to them for specific uses, like if im flashing a router with ddwrt/openrt, AND MORE!!!!!!!!!!!and don't even ask what i do on the computer that involves web browser or games.. fuck discord though.
>>106789043You have the best taste in sweets.
>>106780634>>106780359whenever I see stations like these, I get a feeling that the ones like this -> >>106780418 are some poor larp from reddit, nobody keeps their setup so fancy pantsy if they really use it, feels fake and dishonest desu

Currently on 3 screens, but i feel i have to move my head too muchShould i downgrade to 2 screens?
>>106801582I like my 3rd vertical screen for system monitoring shit I don't actively look at. Really only you can answer that question anon.

>>106801148Never been to California?

good day G
The /g/ set up:>Lots of money on computer>Lots of money on monitor>Lots of money on audio interface>Lots of money on LEDs>$30 on deskGet better desks!
>>106808992Gee there's so much going on in that room, what is that room? Work / hobbies / giganerd mancave?
>>106787752why does your GPU have an AC plug?
>>106809030I got my desk out of a dumpster. If I ever clean enough I'll share it again
>>106780631About 9999999 hours?
>>106809030An expensive desk is not going to make my games run faster and my music sound better.
It's extremely convenient to connect everything via a single cable, even my TV in another part of the room is daisy-chained off the monitor.I'll eventually switch to a new, wireless keyboard, but I've been on this basic Dell one for the last 15 years.
>>106783872Yeah, I'd say you have a problem, unless you just don't have anything below the knees.
>>106785015>diet coke.Either a fatass or a lifter.
auuki + vidya = looong rides and a good heartI'm kinda running out of vidya I want to play though>>106809481>>106783872Why is there a giant maggot beside the dog?
>>106808992You live in a goverment building?
>>106809509More so the latter I suppose, I've been losing a ton of weight over the past year, but that's come mostly from a better diet and being more active. I don't really go to a gym or lift much.
>>106803494nta but I have a Z420 with the 4 core E5 and a GTX970 that I still use for 1080p Premiere editing (capped out at the 2023 version though). Obviously can't play modern games, but it handled Cyberpunk on medium settings okay.For daily normal usage it's great though.
>>106809670I used to ride a stationary bike and play vidya, but your hands get all sweaty holding the controller and it's disgusting so now I just watch anime.
>>106801582You should upgrade to one(1) screen.Either a 16:9 4K, or an ultrawide 1440p.(Personally, I'm on team 4K)Your screen diagonal should be roughly inferior or equal to your desk depth. And don't fall for the oled meme. If it was actually good and/or worth the price, they would not need to shill it on /g/.
>>106809030You cannot really get a better desk if your room cannot fit one to begin with.Most people live in cramped appartments.
>>106806972It's chinkshit. Never buy that crap. Especially used.It's meant for enterprises. And they have to change them every three years because they became laggy as fuck past that point.
>>106810307I bet I live in one of the smallest apartments here and I can still fit a 80x160cm desk, not sure what's that in freedom units. It's still a cheap used desk though.
>>106809030The trick is to get a used desk for $30 or less.
>>106810115Same, but with a rowing machine. Watching a anime episode for a short workout before going to bed does wonders for my sleep.

>>106810823Those big buildings are a security risk. I'd be paranoid that some bum breaks in because he thinks it's abandoned.
>>106808992i cant imagine you sitting there very long
>>106811491I spend like 12 hours a day sitting there virtually every day.
>>106810307You can get a piece of butcher's block cut to whatever size you like. Constructing a desk is a very easy project. I recommend it.
>>106811564isn't that chair shit?
>>106796945How do you make MusicBee look like this?
>>106811687No? It is a decent professional task chair. I use a toolbox as a foot rest - without the stable footrest it is really awkward.Eventually I will probably get a better chair - but this one really is decent - designed for professional labs.
>>106808992Looks like something a hacker collective would have as their hq in the 90s.

>>106810823very interesting setup. how is the lighting for art in the gym?
>>106812651two cups of tea, I like it.
>>106809334I like that you have used the dell keyboard for 15 years. We get so caught up in replacing things with inferior versions of it.. You are sensible to use what isn't broken and works. You have your head firmly set on your shoulders, much respect to you.
>>106812744No, water mug (big one), and coffee/tea. Plus two more nice mugs for guests and/or the remaining liquid from boiling vegetables (green beans tonight).
>>106811767what your ass doesn't get tired? i need a better chair.

>>106815372>you could fill those shelves with amazing books.Like what?
>>106815331Which one is yours?
>>106803600Checked.>>106785732Comfy chair.>>106815558For the religion corner, The Hero with a Thousand Faces (Campbell). A copy of every major religion's sacred text, including a printed version of the alawite anon's Book of Clouds, and The God Delusion (Dawkins). Basic intros to sciences and arts, think logic, math, history of art and self sustaining. Illustrated books on nature, children stories.>>106815331Which one is yours?
>>106815623>Illustrated books on natureThere is an illustrated bird book there because I like birds, but the other stuff you mentioned is pointless. Any activity engaged with that is not necessary to perpetuation or providing an actionable skill that you plan to make use of is purely entertainment. Those all provide poor entertainment value.
>>106815558I see that you have 'Kaguya: love is war' and Konosuba LN, do you pickup stuff that is well known or does the mainstream stuff just happen to appeal to you?This is my (over capacity) light novel cabinet. My favorite series are:>Kumo desuka, nani ka?>Reborn as a Space Mercenary>Orc Eroica
>>106815656I guess you guys are gonna have to break your necks to view the image
>>106815656>>106815669I'm confusedWhy do you have your books placed upside down?I thought the image was upside down, but then these books shouldn't be floating (unless you taped them or some shit)
>>106815656Konosuba I really like and have read all the light novels so want to complete the set. Kaguya: love is war I regret buying. My local bookstore is a family business but still has the best manga selection in my city, so I always like to buy something while I'm there instead of just browsing. I was in the middle of enjoying the anime and only later found out that the manga goes to shit.
>>106815693look at the hinges, it looks like it's rotated 90° widdershins
>>106815693Android took a page outta Apple's book and started using only metadata to rotate images which 4chan proceeds to strip out since anons can't act civilized and not dox each other with geolocation metadata.>>106815712I also dropped the Kaguya manga... manga just have a tendency to overstay their welcome IMO. I didn't drop Konosuba technically, but years ago I couldn't find the next book in the series so I just paused it then forgot about it.The LN market has been taking off in recent years which I enjoy overall though.
>>106815650>Any activity engaged with that is not necessary to perpetuation or providing an actionable skill that you plan to make use of is purely entertainment.I like to think of these books as the mental blueprints before action, modern psychology couldn't face it as well outside some niches.Self sustaining stuff is too wide, could be gardening, woodwork, home repairs. I don't want anons to be Renaissance couch potatos.
>>106815734d'oh, that makes senseI'm not used to seeing manga stacked vertically
>>106815777>mangaNot quite, these are [light] novels. There is a better selection of "mature oriented'" novels compared to manga. There is still alot of the general tropes you expect like harems, but the MC is acutally written in a way to have reasonably 'earned' it instead of a bunch of girls just gifted to them by a stalling plot.
>>106815919That's a nice rationalization for reading mostly isekai slop. At least manga fags don't have their heads as far up their asses as LN fags.
>>106816049lmao, wtf even triggered you?
>>106816049>>106815919For series with an LN it's the most up to date version of the story so it's generally the best option if you care about the story. I don't think they're generally better tropes wise than manga, especially since all the popular ones get turned into manga, it's just that the denser amount of text allows for more descriptive writing.
>>106816049Legit, what made you so mad?
>>106816084>>106816281Tanya and Spider in combination with>mature orientedBut really the only thing to like there is the shelf lighting.
>>106816426Those publications are both like nearly a decade old now. The leaked Seven Seas memo to focus on more mature and +17 intended books came out well after them.
>>106801582Move the third screen on top of your main.
>>106815919>There is still alot of the general tropes you expect like harems, but the MC is acutally written in a way to have reasonably 'earned' it instead of a bunch of girls just gifted to them by a stalling plot.I see you have Watanare in there, so I'm just gonna ignore your postBut I do admit, I enjoy it despite the MC being just the usual harem protag but a cute gamer female with big boobsIt's one of my guilty pleasure LNs and I'm looking forward to the movieI'm interested in owning Japanese copies of Youjo Senki but it's probably gonna have a fuckton of very hard words since it's all about war, politics, etc.
>>106816523That's another old publication >>106816476
The other part of the battlestation. The TV stand is DYI custom made from scrap panels to fit the old TV and old Speakers. The big downside is that I miss having external speakers, so I'll probably mount the TV on the wall and put my old KRK RP5 monitors under it.>>106812709Thanks, Anon>>106812770Honestly I never imagined I'd still be using it all this time later, but it just doesn't die. I also have a Model M, but using it with a PS2/USB converter proved finicky and the lack of super key is annoying. I want to get a wireless keyboard with mechanical switches, something that would be an upgrade and remove one last wire from my desk.
>>106817442Oops forgot my photos
>>106815236your taste a shit, megumin is literally pure portable sex
>>106780359holy unemployment
>>106781050just stop investing into politics bro ,instead come the geopolitics chad teaam......................
>>106783872buy some big planks and extend your desk for cheap also get a 3rd monitor or bigger monitors
>>106809030Prebuilt desks are very expensive, a good big plank will cost max 40 euros and some a metalic skeleton is another 40, while IKEA trash is 200+
>>106819645Sounds like a skill issue, you shouldn't be looking at desks in the first place.IKEA sells very cheap table tops and you can get 4 basic tube legs for 15 EUR.If you want fancy designer legs with wheels then it's 70 EUR just for the legs.
>>106796003But staging for a battlestation thread is the only reason half of us clean up our rooms.
>>106819675Why not look for desks?, IKEA desk wood is usualy compressed trash that get damaged by a little bit of water, cheap legs will break, all prices I mentioned is for a big desk(real wood) maybe even 2m wide that will last for all your life and with adjustable legs that are like this " _|_ " so it doesnt take much space around the table especially the corners. Also a skeleton for under the desk for extra suport.
>>106780359This thread smells ghastly like cum.
>>106814030superb taste
Nothing special.
>>106819864
>>106819645Yep, I agree. That is essentially what I suggest here (>>106811638).>metallic skeletonDo a simple deflection calculation for your kind of wood, and you'll likely find you only need legs as long as you aren't using IKEA rubbish or engineered wood. 3 pin steel hairpin legs can be had for pretty cheap and support 100kg and up at 71cm (standard desk height).If you have butcher's block it's actually even stiffer than regular wood, so you can get away with a little more. I have a 2.5m desk on hairpins and no deflection.

>>106809961Nice, thanks. I mostly need more RAM and can't upgrade my ancient machine's any further, so something that can handle a lot seemed like it would be a good move. Wasn't sure if I'd come to regret the DDR4 and old processor, but if DDR3 is still treating you fine that bodes well.

>>106785015pape pls? reverse image search of a cropped screenshot didn't work
>>106828256Here's a 4k version:https://files.catbox.moe/sdkfvp.pngEdited from this pic (but I took some liberties and shortcuts to make it wallpaper-sized):https://e621.net/posts/5881100
Does anyone know if these are Ikea shelves? I got them at an estate sale a few months ago and looking to add more in the same type, but not sure. I've also got 2 bookcases that I'm 90% sure are Billy's, and these were all sold as one. The corner Billy's I'm finding are just a regular small Billy, whereas this one is wide and the sides butt up against the next bookcase without fuckery. The thing on the left has 2 sides and looks almost like a Lack but lacks are only 1 sided.Thanks

>>106780634>>106785015>>106789043I've got a question which is genuine - not trying to bait or cause drama I actually want to know. I don't know anything about anime - literally zero - I know about as much as I do about marine biology as I do about anime. What I'd like to know from all the folks with the anime girl pillows and figurines and artwork that I see constantly is it it a sexual thing? Do you jack off and or find them hot? Or is it more of 'brand association' in the context of like say someone into football might wear their football club's logo on their hat or something - and / or is it more 'spiritual' for want of a better word like you see them as people / beings in your lives providing guidance / comfort..? I've always wanted to know. Also did you get into them on your own when you were kids? or did you have friends who suggested like .. this/that anime girl is hot you should check her out? Or is it art do you like the art and do you do drawings yourself - Curious anon here.
>>106831055I got a mousepad of an anime girl I like and yes I’ve jacked off to her before. She represents a woman I’m still looking for and just haven’t found yet. I do think I’ll find her someday though.

Just got myself a new desk today
>>106831055>I don't know anything about anime - literally zero - I know about as much as I do about marine biology as I do about anime.You should watch some then. Aria the Animation is a nice choice.>What I'd like to know from all the folks with the anime girl pillows and figurines and artwork that I see constantly is it it a sexual thing? Do you jack off and or find them hot?Probably some people do but no I don't. I just think they look cute and I like supporting my oshi. I ship a lot of my favourite characters together and headcanon that they're lesbians, to me it would feel wrong to make it sexual, like I was imposing on them.>Or is it more of 'brand association' in the context of like say someone into football might wear their football club's logo on their hat or something - and / or is it more 'spiritual' for want of a better word like you see them as people / beings in your lives providing guidance / comfort..?Yeah basically this.>Also did you get into them on your own when you were kids?I got into anime when I was around 13 after watching Sailor Moon on TV.
>>106831055It's partially a sexual thing for me, but I find anime-style fluffy girls to simply be generally cute and aesthetically pleasing.t. >>106785015
>>106831158>>106831524I appreciate the feedback thank you. it also occurred to me after watching that I did in fact see one 'anime?' thing once - "Experiments Lain" - not sure how that rates on any scale that is out there. But I liked the concept of it.
