No BST?Still need to clean up my cables but I added some lights and curtains and now I am ~~vibing~~Rainy evening shot to add to the vibes
>>109010809looks very gay
i have a kid now so the extra bedroom that was my office is now becoming his room and my office is going to be a 5.5x5.5' cuckbox / closet in the hallway, no idea how i'm going to fit all the shit in there. also need to fit the dogs crate
>>109010809
>>109011065Thank you for the cleaning motivation
>>109011065literally me
>>109011029My brother's wife just had their first and he lost his office too. The room is big enough for a desk and a crib so I don't get it.
>>109011029put a computer in it you retard. play loud games while the kid is trying to sleep and bang on your mechanical keyboard while it sleeps. it needs to learn its place.
Very messy right now, in the middle of painting the upstairs hallway. After that is done I'll have time to finally paint the game room. Thinking of Sherwin Williams Retreat if anyone has strong opinions on color i'd like to hear them.Also, feel bad for you guys that lost your space for kids. I foresaw that issues when my wife and I were looking at houses. I'd prefer a finished basement but settled on a 5 bedroom house. I took the smallest bedroom for my gameroom, gave the middle rooms to my kids. When we move in a few years i'm insisting on a finished basement to turn into my space.
>>109011029>>109011597For my first kid I moved my office to the unfinished side of the basement in the cluttered storage area with the sub pump and spider bros. For years it was like that until I had some money to finish the area. Now its a fully finished office, very comfy. I built a stained and varnished cherry wood container that covers the sub pump, put at crt tv on top of it, and drywall everywhere else. A closet hiding the softener and gun safe. Its very comfy in there now and I am very happy and I got a nice couch in there with two desks, my server rack and a 55" tv, a fridge, and programmable pot lights. One day I'll post a pic.
Got cooked by some title 50 nerds for three years so things are not as I would like them but contributing nonetheless. Images not taken for this thread >>109010809Looks like there might be a woman in the environment given the adornment of the walls, not efficient cognitively. Nothing to manage reflections behind the speakers. I question table top height unless that desk was custom built it’s almost certainly too high, use an ergonomic calculator in that case and adjust whatever it suggests for table top height to keycap height, that’s generally what matters. Can’t identify chair, consider one with forward tilt. Get nylon dust filters for the desktop.A fucking candle? Really?>>109011597Looks pretty good. You seem like enjoy music consider correcting the speakers with an inexpensive measurement microphone if you have not already. Steelcase leap are generally economical if purchased second hand but I would suggest an aeron remastered or mirra 2 fully loaded. I am not seeing any issues, the over decorated space kind of bothers me honestly. Looks like you know how to use an ultra wide. At the moment best in slot displays appear to be a single asus 4k 240hz with bfi oled and portable oleds in portrait on both sides and a lg c5 42 or a gaming rebrand for mixed use and media until solved HMD hits market in hopefully less than 10 years.
>>109011777This is generally how it looks when I appreciate it. Have to consider user perspective compared to cameras. I would like to calibrate the display next, get volume validation for my headphones potentially if I can’t do it with math and establish a pipeline that is effortless enough as the headphones can output 130+ decibels.
>>109011777>You seem like enjoy music consider correcting the speakers with an inexpensive measurement microphone if you have not already.I don't have a umik, though I do have an AVR with Audyssesy in the living room where most of the music listening happens. This Leap was indeed economical, paid $200 at a liquidator. We have Aerons at the office and I don't like mesh chairs. I might be tempted by an Embody if it had "4D armrests" like my Leap. I know I'm behind the times with my monitors, but I just bought a Sony OLED TV. It's gonna be a while before I drop more money on screens.
>>109011891Called it on the leap. If you’re happy with it and money is relevant then use it forever. If you want forward tilt and don’t like mesh for some reason then consider office master. It is upholstered so you will have to either clean it or reupholster it eventually but their best mechanism is good, maybe as good as Herman miller. I have not used one in person. If it matters to you there is no need for a umik though that’s what I purchased, there are genuinely inexpensive measurement mics. This all boils down to how much you care, I will spare nothing for any objective upgrade to my home computer. Doesn’t matter if it’s oled, perceptible improvement in motion clarity or enjoyment of private audio, forward tilt even if I may not use it, ergonomics, etc. a mindset thing, an operator is not going to tolerate an inferior rifle if a better option exists assuming obtaining the upgrade is not strictly self destructive in a way that matters.

>>109011597>The room is big enough for a desk and a crib so I don't get it.yeah I wanted to keep even just a small multiple purpose desk in there so I could work sometimes in his room while he plays, but my wife didn't want that because she wanted him to have more play space. And it's not worth the battle, so into the closet I go. >>109011730Maybe I'm just coping but I feel like this small space will be fine for me, I think it's mostly the natural light I'll miss.

It weighs 23 grams or something and makes everything else feel like trash that is not genuinely ergo. A Logitech g pro for example or a razer viper, the two most standard mice on earth amongst who the fuck ever “gamers”, will not fill my palm so why in the fuck is there anything behind the buttons? To allow for a battery? No because they’re products and products are generally for average people or an average at the very least. Also it was made by two brothers in Germany who I decided I wanted to support as I liked what they were doing. Uses a drone MCU too which is kinda sick.I have played an aim trainer with it at least once and have used it in both doom and warframe.Does not have that many hours on my desk until lately.

>>109011029>>109027540>>109027836kek yeah I've been here since the migration from Something Awful (2004?). I actually prefer the slower pace, for a while there 4chan was too fast for me on a lot of boards.The AV rack is in then I have a smaller network rack, but I'm swapping that for a 12U because I'd like to move the NAS over there and make some more room in the AV rack (which runs the whole house AV basically, I just have no place else to put it). Obviously will work on wire management.Next need to get a desk top made and installed. I ordered a different dog crate that has a side door that should make the crate situation more tolerable... but, yeah, gunna be a tight working space but will make the best of it.

>>109011721thanks, yeah it is what it is. at some point I'd love to move into a bigger house but my taxes are locked in pretty low at my current place and so moving seems like a bad idea. maybe someday. Nice setup btw!
>>109029043Yeah, I can understand that. I got the golden handcuffs of a sub 3 percent mortgage rate. Not only do I want a bigger house but I also my house is in the suburbs. Don't get me wrong, for the right family my house is great but I'm a country boy at heart. I have another 3 and a half years on my work contract. After that we are moving to rural Montana or Wyoming, something like that.Love my room setup but it's packed tight and I have a bunch of stuff in the basement and garage because I lack the room. I had to give up my dedicated retro computing setup due to lack of space. Can't wait to get that up and running again after I move.Either way I'm taking it all out to paint and so some repairs on the walls plus run some more cat6. What setup is yours?

>>109011721This is my living room setup, I've changed a few things since these were taken but nothing major. Mainly the book cases got changed for nicer ones.
>>109048692I hate the speaker placement in the living area but I'm struggling to find a better suggestion. One of those it is what it is situations. I think I'd probably just find some speakers that stood out less so it looked less shitty but maybe not even worth the bother since you're single and when you find some broad she'll want something different anyways.
>>109033994Most of the posts on this board are by jeets who have "battlestations" that we would all laugh at.
>>109048748Those HTD speakers sound great and i'm hard pressed to want to replace them. My only regret is I wish I got them with the walnut veneer over the black ones I got. My only issue with the current setup is I don't get great stereo separation but this is my living room and its mostly used by my wife and kids.
>>109048878The speakers are fine, the placement is just not ideal. The left and right are too far inward, they should be farther out, and obviously they are mounted too high. The horn loading making a narrower dispersion helps you a bit, but, it's not ideal. But there isn't a great work around, it's a wide angle lens so kinda hard to tell the distances but there isn't a practical place to widen the L and R placement. Ideally would like to see 22-30deg from centerline (44 on the narrow side, 60 on the wide side) at the main listening position.

Should I do something like this under my desk to manage the wires (a chase)? ... or...

>>109056985I'm going to have a printer and scanner on the desk which both have a brick.. was thinking of having the brickholder on the right hand side and then the chase across the underside, maybe like 3-4inch below the grommets/underside of desk.

>>109064990yeah I'm pretty sure that's how computing works
I feel like I have spent most of my life building this up and yet it still is not comfortable. Not sure where to go from here
>>109072876
>>109072876Pick a main monitor and put that right infront of you while sitting straight and facing forward, put the other monitor to the right of that. Makes me feel uncomfortable looking at it.
>>109072876I hope that is a foot rest and not your actual chair, because that would immediately solve almost everything.Also, you have monitors to the side so you are turning your head, not face oncome on man
>>109072876Also your computer is in your kitchen, this is ruining the vibe because you are in a kitchen, not an office/gaming space.My psychoanalysis of you is that you have a commitment issue.
>>109073063this is the corner of my living room, separated from the kitchen by the pony wall to the right. But I see your point
>>109072876>>109072887First of all, i think you have an amazing setup.Second:I can't really figure out what you mean with "not comfortable".You talk about the chair?Or the chair to desk height ratio?You mean the two monitors and the laptop placed ergonomically wrong to you?Maybe you mean the loudspeakers not being placed hidden?I can't really tell if the desk is height adjustable from the pictures. At least i don't see any panel with up/down buttons and such. Generally i would recommend you to consider two or three identical monitors. Since you have two of different aspect ratio and resolution, i think you know which one you prefer. Buy a second one or even two additional ones of the same.Get a strong and sturdy Vesa-Mount stand or build your own one with either box section steel tubes, a welding machine and such. If you don't have access to a welding machine or a workshop at all, go for aluminium extrusion profiles. There are all kinds of parts and accesories available for these to build a perfect tailor made vesa mount stand from them that fits your needs. Dual or triple monitor ... no problem with this. You could even add loudspeaker extenders onto each monitor arm to position the loudspeakers above the monitors and make the entire construction height adjustable, so the loudspeakers always rise if the monitors do.The entire desk can be built from these extrusion profiles. Just migrate the tabletop over to the new "foundation".The cheapest option is to buy one from Alibaba.comsee pic related
>>109073303I think the lack of comfort comes from a mix of the things you mentioned. The desk can be raised, the position its in is the lowest setting at 30in which feels about 4in too high. But this might also just be an issue with my chair+posture? I can't really tell, I feel like I would prefer a literal car chair to the secret labs gaymer throneThe monitor on the left has a built-in virtual KVM allowing me to switch between the PC and Mac while still using the same M+KB. I think it might be time to get a dedicated KVM. This would allow me to change out the left monitor with something that fits better, and pursue the vesa mount setup you mentionAs for the speakers, perhaps they should be mounted directly on the wall flanking the window. Would like to allow light in the window block it with a shelf -- but then how would I route the cabling for these? Currently they run under the desk with some rubber adhesive cable management thingsWhile the desk can be raised to standing-level, the cables to the tower are a limiting factor. I've looked around for some kind of desk-mounted-basked solution but the stuff I see online looks like cheap chinesium trash. The desk is some kind of particleboard which, I would much prefer real wood or something that won't disintegrate when I drill into it when trying to build out a dedicated mount.
>>109051138name of camera in top right?
>>109042737where did you find the fighter jet wallart? I've been looking for something similar but picturing spaceX rockets
>>109072876like others said, get vesa mounts for both monitor and speaker(above monitor). i recommend getting those reinforcement plates so your desk has less risk of getting fucked up. remove the 'desk-table', slightly raise the monitors so you can shove that macbook/mixer underneath. now you have a much larger deskplane. to mount those speakers, i used velcro tape and it was pretty solid. if you're paranoid, wrap a tightening band around it.remove the pc from that position, seems you're unable to stretch your legs. it would fit in the back right corner, on the other side of your desk leg.
>>109072876>>109072887If you've been at this so long, why do you still have a gaming chair? Side bolsters on desk chair is pants-on-head retarded.
>>109073617i dont remember. i bought it to be a puppy camera 5 years ago. its not connected.
>>109011721my friend, your shelves! where did you get them? they look exactly like what I'm looking for.
>>109012557no it wouldn't. overhead lighting sucks ass for comfort. >>109011721buy some lamps
>>109074186>its not connectedto any of your systems
>>109056369Yes>>109073628I don't actually remember desu, I've had it for close to ten years.
>>109074043can someone explain to me why gaming chairs have side bolsters in the first place? the lateral g forces of gaming?
>>109076068because they copied cheapo car racing seats to look cool. the seatbelt passthrough on many of them is more goofy than bolsters desu
>>109076097that's the piss line pass through. for long gaming sessions i route my piss line through there, I keep the jug behind the seat and then just have a funnel and a tube I rest on my lap.
>>109076168And this is a good example of why I maintain that keyboards maintaining the numpad on the righthand side after mice became commonplace was a mistake and evolutionary failure.
>>109027836>I want the board crawling with teenagers again.Anon...
>>109076168>leaving the keys in.the glowniggers will turn off your computer when you turn around.
>>109078896do they make any cheap ones?i think thats pat of the reason i use the mouse under the keyboard rather than next to it, i guess ten keyless is the way to go and buy a seperate numb pad if u need it
>>109078899teenagers don't browse the internet anymore. they only browse curated walled-garden short format video platforms.
>>109078896honestly unless you're an accountant having a numpad is fucking retarded
>>109079375I use it for macros and simulators. They're pretty useful for an ICP/MFD input and rally computers.
>>109010877I agree. Thats the first thing I thought when I saw this guys set up. Its like a womans idea of what a mans office should look like
>>109079469kind of specialized, basically "it's great for manchildren that use flight simulators", but hardly typical. I work in finance and don't even use a numpad.
>>109079753manchildren don't play flight simsonly deluded boomers
>>109074786The free standing shelves? Or the wall mounted ones above the desk? Or the the unit my consoles are on? Everything besides the wall mounted ones are cheap amazon stuff, I attached what the name of the stand I have all the consoles on, its sold out but if you look for "Farmhouse Industrial" style things you'll find similar things. The shelfs on the wall are just maple boards I stained to match. I still don't understand why the maple butcher block desk turned out so much lighter then the shelves. Both are maple and I used the same prep and stain. Really annoying.>>109074843Yeah, when I remodel i'm gonna add lamps.
>>109080546you don't need to remodel to buy a lamp m8
>>109080612Yeah but i'm pulling the game room apart for paint and drywall repair anyways, when it goes back together i'm gonna put more thought into lighting.
>>109012487Hi El Furro, do you have sauce for the wallpaper on the right? Thanks in advance as always :)

>>109081074Thanks bro <3
>>109036104Ignore the retards I find your setup very refreshing and chudlike.

>>109074043the gaming chair is actually relatively new, purchased after the old chair started contributing to lower back pain. I don't know how to shop for chairs, everything seems priced to orbit the moon. The (new) gaymer throne was cheaper than some (used) herman miller product. I probably didn't look hard enough but needed something in a pinch, I sit here ~16 hours a day for work and after. Still, the best chair I've ever had was some hand-me-down junk when I was 16. That thing lasted nearly a decade>>109073876>>109073303I've been convinced. Vesa mounts on the way, will post updates sometime next week.
>>109083605for those speakers you can get those cheap tall monitor arms and add a vesa-to-tablet stand. then you basically have a small platform on which you can velcro those speakers.
>>109083605Used Steelcase Leap v2. You're welcome.
>>109084773love me leap v2, I always recommend them reupholstered but people seem to choose a gaymer chair over their health. Oh well.
>>109086021>people seem to choose a gaymer chair over their healthif a chair is enough to cause health issues for you, you're a lazy fat/emaciated piece of shit. work back and core. ergonomic chairs are only needed by people who have prior injuries, not people who are lazy peices of shit. proper posture (incl. arm/neck/wrist) on a wooden stool is just as healthy for you as any ergo meme chari if you aren't an absolute slob with nonexistent core strength. >muh health lmfao1rm?
>>109086235Yeah okay buddy, we know you're broke.
>>109086255I had a nice Knoll Lifechair in my room. I moved it to my office for WfH. I didn't miss it when RtW happened. It's still gathering dust in my office, far from my personal computer.
>>109086284(2/2) We also had the same steelcase leaps at the office (both the old V1 with the funny squeeze bulb lumbar support and the V2), but I just used a standing desk 90% of the time.
>>109012383Lemme guess, you work with radar?
>>109083605>I've been convinced. Vesa mounts on the way, will post updates sometime next week.Well done. It will depending on your height adjustment free up space under the display.In terms of chairs:I bought Secretlabs NeueChair about 6 years ago. It's a mesh equipped ergonomic chair with an Aluminium exoskeleton.Additional to the chair, i bought the headrest also. Best decision i made.I'm 1.80 Meters tall with long legs. So i'm borderline tall for this specific chair. It's almost like the seat surface itself is a bit too short for my looong legs.I had to adjust this on the max forward position to halfway fit my legs.Backrest is perfect and has a lumbar support, especially combined with the headrest that is super adjustableBut i'm sure, a used Herman Miller will be a good if not a better option too.Gamingchairs are a meme, and there are only a few really good models on the market.I think that's the reason why many changed to ergochairs that previously had gamingchairs.
>>109036094so the guy with this setup >>109035114 finally fucked off?
>>109083605nice
>never fear>i is here
>>109076168perfect setup for a double amputee
>black>notice a lot of people love not having to use their mouse>realize it's typical weak skinny arm faggots who don't do any physical exerciseI literally just life and workout and never have such problems. Keyboard only interaction is a cope. I know shortcuts, too, but it doesnt mean I cant use my mouse either.
>>109086321Yes, I do.
>>109010809behold, you noobs
>>109092879honestly a little crt monitor would probably compliment my oleds nicely
>>109092926>a little crt monitorI never got rid of mine. Depending on what you do, they can be pretty handy.
Whenever I look at my setup like this I feel like the empty wall needs some decorations and/or wall clock or something, maybe a small monitor or tablet running some clock screensaver.But most of the time I only have very dim night light whenever I watch anime or play vidya, so light from another display on top could be annoying.
>>109093004just staple an at least mostly dead seagull to the wall
>>109093004you already have a nice texture and pattern on the wall so something with a more solid color would probably look good. An analog clock seems like a safe bet. Speakers above the monitor is another option. Maybe some landscape artwork too, but you'd need to find the right one
>>109092879this just makes me angry

>>109093004anon loves trackball mice
Made some headway, desk in, additional rack in (not seen here and i'm in bed will photograph next time). Some temp wires just strung across, like to the security camera display. I think the top of the dog crate is going to be the printer shelf...
>>109010809This would be perfectly fine usually, but the scented candle makes it gay.
>>109033994it's more or less the same stuff posted even if the pics are different and freshwhen the desk isn't humping a wall that's something>>109050231it's a bit weird when the majority of setup pics are probably thirty to forty year old dudes and it seems not much thought has gone into it. when looking at pics id wonder what were the compromises, the iterations, the aim and intent, what is the story here, who is this person, what choices did they make over a period of time to end up here. maybe even what they sort of look like based on a ergonomics
>>109095207i have to imagine 4chan's average age is quite a bit higher now kek, considering a lot of people started here 20 years ago
>>109050231stfu, noob.
>>109092879What's really sad is there's a chance the amount of examples of this that still exist can probably be counted on one hand, if any still exist at all.

If your speakers arent atleast as tall as your monitor, what are you doing?
Not sure if the microphone is a good idea. It sounds better than a headset but I am not sure about it, seems like a bit much. What do you think? Been hiding it in my wardrobe for like a year now, used it only 2 times or so then put it away again feeling it's too much
>>109011721Looks smelly
>>109097002this reads like "i have no other furniture in my house"do you sleep on a mattress on the floor by chance?
>>109097002Whoa! Tons of monitors
>>109097433What microphone arm is that?
>>109097637Elgato Wave Pro. I got it today. Not sure if I'm keeping it, my wife might think I'm a nerd, I've been hiding the mic for a year now in my wardrobe
>>109097678On the other hand, doesn't wearing a headset make me look like a call center operator so is this really worse or better?Honest question
>>109097002I did this at work. I wasnt suppose to have that many monitors, but I did it cause I can and it impressed my coworkers and managers more than anything. They gave me an exception cause I was so productive.
>>109097002including quad arms, this setup probably cost more than two fuckhuge 4K panels.possibly more than some cheap 8K TV, while only having half its total area.
>>109097637>>109097678>>109097687I wanted to back it back in the box for return, but as I removed the mic I felt like no I kinda like it, and I am mentally preparing to play it cool when my wife notices and comments on it>what's with the x-box-hueg microphone honey?>oh that old thing? have had it for a year now, was waiting for the right time to set it up, it's not badmaybe then I will also have the confidence to use it in video calls
>>109098239The mic arm is nice. I'm probably buying one as well.
>>109098315Yes, it's quite nice, although I am now also comparing it with the elgato desk stand, and maybe it's actually the better choice. I guess it depends how frequently you intend to use the mic
>>109098540isn't it awkward right next to your right arm? I would put it on the other side, behind the monitor so that it's not in the way when unused
>>109098540The arm looks miles better than the stupid stand honestly. Also really like the color.
>>109098561It's not really long enough to put on the other side of the table. The only correct position is either on your right or your left. As I am right handed the right hand side seems logical.I think the table stand is appealing in the sense that is seems easier to store away when not used, but if you are going to use it everyday the arm seems like the correct choice. Just the downside is then I can't hide it from my wife any longer
And when not using just move to the side
>>109098619>The arm looks miles better than the stupid stand honestly. Also really like the color.Yes. I am going to test drive it for a week. I got it from Amazon so it's probably sneaky refurbish anyway, there was a good discount but it seems without defects.
>>109098315>I'm probably buying one as well.It's probably the best option out there at the moment, but I want to warn you that the finish of this product is very rough, and not what you'd expect for the price. Nevertheless I don't see a better alternative, even if price were no object, you have OC white but that looks like ass
>>109098620>It's not really long enough to put on the other side of the table. The only correct position is either on your right or your left.just want to add: the whole point of a mic arm for me is improved ergonomics, compared to a desk stand where you have to lean into your table to reach it. Positioning the arm too far away from it defeats the purpose.
>>109098620Why is your desk in front of your bed? So you can watch Tyrone rail your wife while you play Roblox?
>>109098874No ducking shit, why else do you think, you fucking retard? Tell me, why else would someone do that?
Worse audio but cleaner desk, or better audio but more bloated desk
>>109011597dear youtuber anon. please seize and desist posting the same boring setup from the same retarded angle in every godforsaken bst thread like some kind of statement that only you can understand or appreciate.
during my ban I tried to fit in on reddit, but it didn't work out for me, was banned for posting this, even though it's a biblically sound statement
>>109099044anon i got downvoted for being depressed over getting dumped, because i was 3% resentful of what she did in my post (she ditched a 7 year relationship without a proper grownups breakup or explanation). reddit is a pack of hateful anuses posing as good people, while clutching their pearls over your political incorrectness for misgendering the guy who raped your daughter.
>>109098239>maybe then I will also have the confidence to use it in video callsthat's my problem with those, when I'm on a work call I don't want to look like a radio host.
>>109098981Why do you think I have a youtube channel? Don't those people have webcams and microphones or whatever?
>>109020600o7
>>109099372Yeah, it kinda sucks, because I did a test recording today on microsoft teams, where I compare the microphone to my "high end business headset", and the difference is night and day, the microphone has a much superior sound quality, regardless of the fact that microsoft teams compresses and downgrades the audio quality
>>109099458I don't know micphones that well, but could you get something like a shotgun mic that could be out of frame so you could have nice audio but not look like a streamer?
>>109099372>>109099458I did 3 tests on the microsoft teams recording>sm7db microphone inside of the webcam shot, about 10 cm from my mouth --> great sound>sm7db microphone just outside of webcam shot, about 15-20 cm from my mouth --> still very good sound, but definitely not as good as when closer >Jabra Engage 50 ii ("high end business headset") --> muffled sound, not even close to the sm7db imho, but of course it's "acceptable" if the bare minimum is ok for younow regarding video calls, I think I will start using the sm7db just outside of the frame, it sounds better than the headset, and headset make you look like a call center cuck anywaymaybe eventually I will lose my inhibitions and use the microphone in shot, it doesn't look worse than a gay headset imho, but sounds miles better to the discerning ear
>>109099486I think you could, but since I already have this mic, I kinda wanna use it. I wish more people would do it, so it wouldn't seem like such a big deal. I've never seen someone in a real life business meeting use a big microphone, usually it's either headsets or ass-quality sound from laptop microphone
>>109099486>>109099498but from the little research I've done, getting great results from shotgun mics requires a lot more effort in room treatment and you will still get a less good result than with the upclose black dildo mic without room treatment. not sure if true, I never tried shotgun mics
I need better lighting for Zoom and stuff, my cuckbox just has an overhead light so I look like I have AIDS.
>>109099565I think you can look into a better lighting solution to add to the ceiling. I also still need to do that
Should i get married or embrace the lonely bachelor life forever? I met a girl but i'm not sure. My field is getting eaten alive and screaming by AI and it may not last 2 years.
>>109099638>My field is getting eaten alive and screaming by AI and it may not last 2 years.Relatable, I decided not to worry about it and take each day as it comes.

>>109099622the problem is all downlighting generally doesn't look good, you want to layer it. like a lamp or something lower.
>>109099638I have a live in girlfriend and kid and will say it's a very different life, you need to make sure any girl you get with allows you some personal space. if you've ever seen the boomer memes about working on their truck or tools in the garage or whatever, that all actually stems from if they didn't have their garage they'd go insane.
>>109099638I can't relate to AI taking my job but I'm married with kids and love it. >>109011721 is me
>>109099825Yes but you (and i) should look into a type of ceiling light that does not really send beams of light but some type of very strong soft light in all directions without really beaming. cant explain it sorry
>>109099808>Stay single if you can, I regret marryingi'm over 30 anon, and i need a woman in my life. i did everything right, maintained a job for over a decade, and accumulated some respectable savings, but the concept of having to support a family, being the sole provider and losing income scares the shit out of me. i don't want to hurt people who rely on me for support because of things outside my control.>>109099834>I have a live in girlfriend and kid and will say it's a very different life, you need to make sure any girl you get with allows you some personal space.can relate. my family drops in once a week, nephew and niece hover around me and demand attention every 90 seconds. i can barely fart or lie down the entire time they're here. i don't actually want children of my own, but potential future wifey wouldn't appreciate that.>>109099840>I can't relate to AI taking my job but I'm married with kids and love itlucky you. any tips or words of encouragement to delve into something that might end in financial ruin and tears?
>>109099902Why even live if it might end up in financial ruin and tears? My wife and I have had tears together but never financial ruin. I gotta say from a strictly financial position, marriage has been great for us.
>>109099902>i'm over 30 anon, and i need a woman in my life. i did everything right, maintained a job for over a decade, and accumulated some respectable savings, but the concept of having to support a family, being the sole provider and losing income scares the shit out of me. i don't want to hurt people who rely on me for support because of things outside my control.I'm 38, and you are very right to have those fears, women are a huge financial liability, a constant financial drain as well as a ticking time bomb. But in the end we all die, so I dont know, there is no end game in life
>>109092879AI slop.
>>109080546yeah, I meant the wall mounted ones above the pc. I find most people just stain a slab and mount it. I think that's what I'm going to end up doing... thank you
>>109099902>>109099933just don't get married and stay out of states that consider you married after cohabitation. even if you have kids, worst comes to worst you pay child support which has a limit to how bad it can get...but alimony there is no limit to the pain. don't financially commingle either, don't buy a house with someone, keep shit separate. no matter what you'll get pressured to get married, but just remember you are entering a legal contract with someone with the government out of "love"... think about that. lots of people live their lives together now that don't get married, it's a minority still but it's getting more common. and don't let them convince you the "tax savings" make marriage worthwhile, in total cost it will statistically not.>>109099865I think with my tall ceilings it might be difficult but I'll look into that. It is nice not having stuff on desks, less clutter, but I do think a lamp will help me fill in some shadows.
>>109063043Thanks, anon!>>109059692I go back and forth between killing my neck or my back so they're both just mildly in pain from time to time.
>>109100048I not legally married, we only did tribal marriage in my wife's home country. She also doesn't officially live in my home. That way I can theoretically change the locks when she's out and it would be finished and done. But I don't think it would be that simple in reality
>>109099044>I tried to troll but got rekt>went to 4chan to cry about it.Poor poor Raneesh when will you learn.
do you guys think racks with books against the walls are effective at reducing reverb?
>>109100576yes. You need to actually fill the shelves with books but largely yes.

>>109048748Speakers need a few feet of air all the way around them otherwise they will echo off of any surfaces and completely fuck up the frequency response.
>>1090339944cuck be dying that's why, thanks gookmoot>>109048692what in the hell is that speaker placement... you do have the nicest floors I have ever seen in an american's house I must say
>>109101600A lot of speakers really benefit from being actually flush or against a wall to combat SBIR, or even flush which is what baffle walls do. If the speakers are ported, which probably that Klipschslop are, then they do benefit from either being plugged or pulled out a bit (but they are out far enough in that photo). My gripe with the placement is that they're horizontally too narrow, so the soundstage is collapsed, and vertically placed too high, so the sound is coming from above.One fix would be to mount the L and R farther out, but there isn't a practical way to do that. They should also be lowered, but there isn't room. His wife and kids use it anyways so whatever, I'm sure it works fine for what it is.
>>109101664Not sure what you are asking about with my speaker placement? Speakers don't fit next to the TV in the space so I just put them above and aimed them down.Floor is original to my house which was built in 1910
>>109097332You straddle that amp between your legs? Kek.
