      the bottom of the keyboard “tray” looks like it would touch the chair seat if fully extended.

      I’m imagining the chair has no back, and the legs are all different lengths.

    This guy is honestly one of my favourite youtubers. I had no idea so many weird and wonderful fruits existed in the world

    I really hate those under desk keyboard drawers if they get in the way and / or are un-ergonomic

      I love mine! The front plate has hinges so it folds down and outta the way. When I’m not using my key board I can hide it and leaves desk open for mouse and snacks

      Wrists is what immediately jumped out at me, but a chair with no back support = no good long term

          IIRC the thing that causes long term damage is staying in the same position for long periods of time. Without a back rest, there isn’t much movement you can do to change position. I could be misremembering though

          Edit: of course you could just stand up every once in a while and that’d probably take care of it I guess, I’m not an Orthopedist

    I don’t get how anyone can trust those mugs with a tapered base.

    Are you trying to spill your drink as far as you possibly can?

    You just need one finger to catch the edge of the cup, and gravity/momentum will do the rest.

      The orientation of the mug handle to the desk and chair for the picture bothers me regardless.

          Left side of desk for mug then. No reason to cross all that paperwork with a full mug.

          That mug was posed, dare I say it.

      I’ve got a couple of cups like that. The bases are usually very thick which shifts it’s center of gravity lower. It’s not nearly as top heavy as they look

      It’s a drawer that he’s pulled the keyboard into to free up desk space for highlighting text on the printouts.

      More worryingly, the space between the bottom of the drawer and the top of the chair would make a XKCD character wince.
