That TV sure as hell doesn't fit you're otherwise awesome setup :p

You're probably right, but that TV has been great for me. My parents bought it for me as a birthday gift when I was in high school. It lasted all through college and it's still going strong.

Thank you. It is a Z-Line Matrix from Staples.

Wow - awesome setup!

How exactly did you do the cable management?

What Indian's video set is that on your bookshelf?

The video set is "10 Years of Indians Highlights" celebrating the 10th anniversary of Jacobs Field. I'm a big fan of the Cleveland Indians! :D

Is it a good idea to leave the tower on the carpet?

I guess so. It's been there for 2 years without any issues.

Thank you. I bought the desk almost 2 years ago, so I'm not sure if it's still available in stores.

I'm not sure if this would be the appropriate forum for posting this, but I actually couldn't think of a better place to post this.

I've seen some fantastic Workstation setups here - really, very impressive work by many.

I have recently had a spot of good luck during the long stretch of problem-after-problem over the last 4 years, so I'm asking for just a small bit of help here. The "spot of good luck" has been my very-recent-and-free aquisition of an IKEA Jerker desk....sans the swing-out stands that attach on either side of the vertical rails.

In short: if anyone has any spares that they are not needing / using I'd be forever grateful if you could send me a PM. Since IKEA re-named the desk as the Fredrick, it seems like none of the stores have those stands. We're not in a very good financial position right now (waiting for SSI Disability to kick-in), so the least cost the better.

To Forum mods: Please forgive this post, but I'm out of options and thought that the friendships here could prove to be usefull. If anyone has other, reasonable options, please let me know.

Thanks!

    • Microsoft explains how it made Teams so much faster in 2026

      I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.

    • Phone Dilemma

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
