I'd also like to buy Philips Hue but they are so low power. Like 500 lumens or so in their E27 bulbs. Nope. Bought a Stockholm rug from Ikea. The color was completely different than in photos but I bought it anyways. Reshuffled the desks a bit and moved the pc from floor to table.  Also ordered a bunch of longer cables and velcro while at it. Some day I achieve victory over all the cables.

That's the Chartres cathedral, too. Probably my favourite cathedral I've ever been to. Just magnificent.

 Steelcase Think to replace my old Ikea Markus, although mine's all black with polished metal base and adjustable arms/lumbar. Wish I could find somewhere to get the headrest for it though, otherwise it's great. Raikiri has a new favorite as of 16:56 on Jul 31, 2015 |

Where are you guys getting these fancy office chairs? I feel like I'd have to sit in it for a while before I could commit to that much chair money.

From experience, there isn't any such thing as an uncomfortable steelcase chair. There is only "not adjusted to mold to my rear end" steelcase chairs.

I got mine as a refurb from eBay, £125 so not THAT expensive. Although yeah, if you're dropping £800+ on a new Herman Miller etc. then try it first. As Vendagoat says they're so adjustable it's unlikely it will be uncomfortable.

I got my Fallout 4 Pip-Boy Edition and Fallout Anthology preorders in while I was on my posting vacation. Can't wait! Although I own the old Fallout games at least 3x each (old physical media, Steam, GOG, console version for 3/NV... so I don't really NEED Anthology, but that bomb is cool and I'm still 12 on the inside)

No adjustable armrests. It's good for getting tasks done, but sucks for lounging of any sort. 6/10. Would not buy again.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Sounds like a defective task chair. I see your point. Definitely didn't have properly managed expectations when I got the chair RCarr posted:What about it don't you like? I play vidjyagames in mine. I lean back in it and put my feet up and it's perfect. I can't really lean back in mine at all, not sure if it's an adjustment I need to make, or simply a feature that mind doesn't have. When you sit in the chair it kind of forces you to have really good posture. This is excellent for getting work done but I wouldn't mind being able to get a mean lean on while I drink and play games on a controller, for example.

That's exactly what I do in mine. There's a knob on mine that controls how much force you need to put on the back to make it lean. I turned mine all the way down to the point where if I lean back at all it easily leans the whole chair back. It's really comfortable.

As Vendagoat says they're so adjustable it's unlikely it will be uncomfortable. Hmm, yeah. My lovely Costco desk chair has been slowly bending since I got it and every Steelcase office chair I've used (although I haven't used the Leap) has been great. Someone is selling them for $250 apiece lightly used near me, I might grab one. Now the question is whether or not I should return this nearly 2 year old chair back to Costco.

It's probably one of the Lumix/Leica crossover models, given the little L logo and styling. I bought an LX7 recently and it's pretty awesome for a compact.

i think amadeus summed it up pretty well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_UsmvtyxEI but pick is right, i absolutely love rachmaninov and playing his opuses. it's hard work but incredibly satisfying when you finally have such an intricate piece completed.
