As a developer or designer you’re sitting in front of the fucking computer all day every day—IMO it is self-care to get the best thing possible.
- Get a really fast computer so you get shit done quicker.
- Get a really good monitor so you minimize eye strain
- Get a good mechanical keyboard so typing is a joy, not a chore
- Get an ergonomic desk and chair
- Get the best quality, life is too short for crappy tools
No-name Chronicle:
Endrief plodded through the sand, grinding his teeth against the burning sensation that accompanied each footfall. The cloth tied around his forhead was at least something to shield his eyes from the spears of light scouring the dunes. The horizon danced weirdly, twisting under the ripples sloughing off the peaks of the lands waves.
The sweat dripping from him never touched the ground. He could feel it: the pale horse lagging behind, waiting to collect the final tax.

My players almost escaped the subterranean dungeon today. But then asked an angel to destroy a door. It caused a cave in (they've been warned for the past few sessions it's unstable down here) and now they are either digging themselves out or going deeper to find one of several back doors.
So far so good.
He/Him. EE/CE, I build things with lights and microcontrollers and run RPGs for friends.
I make computer do things, and make things do computer.
