Pro tip: Add a background image to your video conference for privacy.

Most unsettling part here is toilet paper positioning (if not cat owner).

Every time my ex would reload, she loaded it this way. Every time I found it this way, I would reverse it

I’m pretty sure this was a contributing factor in my parents divorce.

As a cat owner, you’ll never catch my rolls in this blasphemous position. Kitty’s getting misted if he confuses hanging TP as a toy

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So it would look like you are chest deep in a toilet. It's the way I prefer it anyway.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 day ago

Cat owner… my stupid bois have found a way to empty the roll even when it’s placed like that. Nothing is safe.

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 6 points 1 day ago

if not cat owner

Bend the cardboard roll on the inside so it becomes oval-shaped. That way it doesn't keep unrolling if they pull on it

A bonus is you can invite your dental hygienist over and have your teeth cleaned while you work

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

I don’t think people realise that these setups (less exaggerated) are usually for disabled or chronically ill people unable to sit up.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So me on a Wednesday morning after a questionable amount of moonshine the night before?

[–] FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

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.

If you use both hands to type the mouse would either fall off or be damgling from its cord

[–] marduk@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I think it's a trackball stuck in place but I could be wrong

[–] ahornsirup@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago

Congratulations, you made it worse.

Can get a dental cleaning during meetings, awesome

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

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."

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

“nuts and gum”

together at last!

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 23 hours ago

Put a big hole in that incline and your proctologist can do their thing too!

Doubles as a hospital baby delivery bed, so you can work through labor.

Why isn’t this the standard?

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 24 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Because the mouse falls off the table the second you start typing.

If there's one thing I like it's resistance as I move my mouse

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

A trackball mouse attached to the desk is the obvious solution. Velcro would work.

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?

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.

100% my S/O's goals

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 7 points 21 hours ago

For when you really need to post on Lemmy from the dentist's chair.
