  • At home I have a steelcase leap, it’s around $700 new. But I can literally sit in it all day with no issues. To me it’s worth it to spend the extra since it’s basically where I spend most of my non-working time.

    But for a cheaper option, we have something similar to these at my work (software developer). If I didn’t already have a really good chair at home, I would probably get one of these. I can sit in it probably just as much as my one at home, and have no issues. The mesh back actually lets your back breathe, and doesn’t retain heat so no back sweat. It’s also relatively durable for the mesh and seat area. But mine does have issues after about 2 years of sometimes the gas piston leaks and when you sit down in it, it goes to the lowest setting. I’m sure one day it will finally just always be at the low setting, but luckily, it’s not to low for me to work with.


  • People need to just chill out and touch some grass.

    Like how long have you been on the internet? If the whole federation thing can be bought out by a company and ruined, then it’s a failed experiment and we move on to the next thing. It’s a tale as old as the internet itself, cool grassroots thing gets popular, sells out, destroys itself, repeat every few years.

    For now, kbin and lemmy are working, but don’t think this will last forever or won’t get tested. Either the concept is good and it will stand the test of corporate takeover, or it won’t and we try something else.





  • So, I kind of wonder what would happen if nobody was willing to defend him because it seems like every lawyer that reps him either gets charged with crimes, or he is like asking them to do illegal shit.

    Like at some point he just will get a public defender because it’s a constitutional right to have a lawyer, but what if he can’t even get one of them to rep him because he asks them to lie or break laws for him. How many do you go through before the court is just like, fuck it, you are unrepresentable we gotta move forward with our a lawyer.
