You wanna get a sit/stand! Then you can sit slouched all day while claiming it's great, and living with the compromise of only certain sizes being available.

It's possible I'm shopping for a sit/stand setup on work's dime today

I hate standing desks. Could not imaging standing up all day at work.

That's why you have the electric one so you can switch it up. I like them, but find i can't concentrate so drop it to sit for more intense stuff.


EDIT - For clarity, this is my at home workspace. I definitely need to sort it out. The desk is a sheet of Birch Ply on 4 lengths of 3x2. I've not even sanded it, so the edge is really sharp and slices my wrists/forearms. It's also very wobbly as i've not braced the back.

Laptop is on a board game box and the awful partially broken monitor i found in a store cupboard at work as i was leaving when the office shut last March. This is also balanced on a shoe box :p

I'm intending to grab some scaffold boards and joint then and then sand/finish it so it actually doesn't look awful. Then maybe grab a widescreen monitor and build a nicer laptop stand, although if i get a big enough monitor i might not even need it.

Had to get a new car battery today ($240 aud).

On the bright side, i managed to finally come up with a reasonable title for a planned article - after about 4 draft versions.

Have you been? You don't have to share the results but just tell us you've been!
 
Ooops, had bought a 2 pack of Wireless Anker Phone Chargers from Amazon. They don't work through a case like advertised so requested a return. They've just collected it and i've realised i didn't put the one i'd tried back in the box.

Hopefully they're not awkward about it!

No, not yet. And i've been struggling to see on and off since. A brief respite of several hours (about 5) 2 days ago out of the blue encouraged me to wait and see if sight would improve further.

It hasnt. So i will definitely need to go.

/OT
On other matters, today was an exhausting day - ive had my tinnitis hearing-aid on non-stop blasting hissing sounds into my right ear for 2.5hrs for relief.

So its working enough to keep it blasting away (50% relief obtained).

On the last couple of days its been frustrating to realise that the full-monty set of therapies are required for an effective psychosis (caused by traumatic stress) remedy.

Darn tinnitis, I got 3 hrs sleep and even that was broken by noise. 3.5hrs on the hearing aid noise-blaster before bed provided only 50% relief.

Other than that, it is pleasant that the rain has finally stopped for a bit.

I have fairly bad tinnitis myself, from what you've said probably not as bad as yours! But I find that playing ambient noise and/or soothing music on lowish volume all night helps hugely, it gives me something to focus on aurally while I drift off to sleep.
 
Received a copy of a free newspaper called 'Vision Times' yesterday, googling it says that it is sent to places around the world with large Chinese communities to keep them informed. Not sure what to think about that, just found it a bit odd.
There's an article on the front page that criticises the mining of rare earth metals in China which has 'desecrated its environment', I wouldn't expect that if it was CCP material.

An 8D pair of shoes that cannot even provide 5D support is useless.

As I found out recently. Which interferes with a safe nights sleep due to pain.

Thus Greek errors abound.
 
Pretty perfect day, no human Contact, walk from holywell Bay to North Perranporth beach, collect driftwood and pure mindfulness, back home to listen to birds and watch (the cloud cleared) sunset, bottle of red and music videos.

I've gone from mettallica to spandau ballet, with eagles in the middle, larna del Ray, seriously going in all directions (on now tv app)
 
Good choice. I tend to go towards the early 00’s nu metal/punk phase as I get more drunk going back to my teen years!

Not sure if you’ve ever been a Nirvana fan but a guy called Post Malone did a nirvana cover set which I was on last night. He does a superb job.

To calm it down too. Try one by “jack and Daisy” called the little things.
They’re a small duet that we saw on holiday but it’s a good good.

Also Bedhead by Manchester Orchestra. It’s a superb video.
