Re:I built a lay-down desk on Tuesday October 06, 2020 @06:03AM (#24696211)
Instead of having just one position to work from, I found it is better to be able to alternate between an ergonomic sitting position and a lay-down position. The easier it is to alternate between these positions, the more you will do it because there is less friction.

Bought a used Aeron chair about 10 years ago and is still working fine. Love the Kinesis Keyboard, also about 8 years old.

The Lounge chair needs to be replaced once a year ($50) because by that time the fabric on the back becomes saggy and will start to cause discomfort on the back.

I don't like to use multiple monitors. Somehow I couldn't get used to it.

When I'm on the Lounge chair, keyboard is on my lap and I use the arm rest to make sure my wrist is not pressed against anything.

When I'm sitting, the armrest is adjusted to keep my wrist from touching anything.

Ask HN: Anyone Got Shipment from Next Thing Co?

I placed an order for $635 on 02 Feb 2017. On 24 Feb 2017, received shipping email.

If yes, how did you get them to ship or give you a refund?I see that their forum has recent activities. So some people received...
