I still need to tidy up some cables though.
what is that decoration you have on your desk
at first I though it was a fish tank but now im not really sure
You are correct. It is a 2 gallon tank with driftwood and moss. I should be getting a fancy betta or some dwarf shrimp to populate it soon.

I have to say, that is one slick looking tank.

I needed to raise my desk a bit because it wasn't high enough so I added a second tabletop and some spacers.

Not a big fan of the new Crunchbang distro as of yet, v1.0 has a lot of kinks to work out.

how long have you been using a standing desk? do you feel it has had a positive impact on your body, relative to sitting?

Yeah.
Bucakehow long have you been using a standing desk? do you feel it has had a positive impact on your body, relative to sitting?
I've had it since late March and I do think it has had a positive impact on my body. My legs and core feel much stronger than before, I've lost a bit of weight, and of course my posture is benefiting from it as well. There are other unproven long-term benefits such as keeping your cardiovascular and metabolic system intact. I live a very sedentary lifestyle and I think the standing desk has had a very positive impact on my health.
Other than getting using to standing while gaming, there are some caveats that come with standing. If I don't move my feet around every 15-20 minutes my ankles will lock up and hurt pretty bad after I'm done gaming. I had to conciously move my legs around at first, now I do it without thinking. Another obvious one is that I wasn't able to stand for long periods of time when I first built the desk (roughly one hour). However, building up an endurance didn't actually take that long (~3 weeks for 4-5 hours standing).

MR_SLINyea that's the one.
Alright, thanks. I was wondering how bad the input lag actually was on it, if there even is any negligible input lag.

Honestly I didn't notice much difference between that Acer 120hz i SOLD to messiah and my current Asus 144hz, so I have no idea what these input lag rumors are about.

yeah but the pricing is pretty comparable to other 120hz monitors, so even if there was no issue, you might as well go with one of the other ones.

Alright, that's good to know. I'm considering picking up a 120Hz. monitor soon, so I was wondering if Acer fixed the input lag issue or not. But if it's barely negligible, I could check it out.
