  • We have a Progressive and a Desky. Dual 24-inch or single 34-wide on them with clamped support arms, but compute is external to the desk so it’s just screens and UI.

    The dual-motor progressive works fast and quiet, but its obstruction sensor is always getting tripped so it’s not easy to move it between favourite settings without a few tries. The Desky is slower and louder, but ultimately smoother. The surface choices seemed to be MDF+wallpaper ‘grain’ for each - ugh - or thankfully the progressive had a bamboo-plywood option. We marred the desky wallpaper surface on day 1 and we see it every day.

    I’d be happy to answer any questions about either.







  • does feel like Linux desktop environments like GNOME and Cinnamon got stuck in 2009 and never evolved past that

    If you think desktops are way not shiny enough, you should see this hammer I have. I’ve had it for decades. It’s old. It’s still got the dumb wooden/metal layout that’s been common for a century or 5. It has no clock, no Ai, no Bluetooth. It’s a fucking relic.

    Piece of stale shit, if you ask me.

    And don’t get me started on this staedler pencil I have.
