It's probably as close to a chopper bike with extended forks and ape hanger handle bars as he is ever going to get. (cue "Born to be Wild" soundtrack)

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

does ride a chopper?

If I raise my standing desk to its maximum extent I can practically walk underneath it.

Harley rider natural sitting position.

Chopper style

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 37 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Which looks so stupid. Why is that even a thing? I don't get it. But then again I don't give 2 shits about Harley dudes or motorcycle culture.

Reasonably raised bars are (allegedly) very comfortable. Excessively raised bars are just for funsies, like many things are.
They probably don't care about your opinion on how it looks.

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 14 points 17 hours ago

Then at least there's a good reason.

I ride a cruiser, and while my arms are no where near that high, they are higher than alot of other motorcycles. I will say it is quite comfortable over extended periods of time as it allows you to kinda relax and "fall" into the seat.

Repetitive strain injury LOVES him

[–] Martineski@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 8 hours ago

What? I thought I was the only one. I feel betrayed.

[–] nullspace@lemmy.world -1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

That is a psychotic way to draw a person.

[–] captain_oni@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 hours ago

Maybe to represent the psychotic way to use that standing desk?

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

I'll bet they're sick on the keys.

[–] Ironrod@sh.itjust.works 2 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

I would get shouted at for 3 weeks straight if I admitted to that during a DSE

[–] topherclay@lemmy.world 12 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

You should be shouted at for 3 weeks straight for writing comments like this on the internet where you bait people into asking what your three letter acronyms mean.

[–] Ironrod@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

My bad, I assumed it would be a thing in America as well as the UK, it stands for Display Screen Equipment (assessment) it's a legal requirement here where your company basically has to make sure your computer equipment is set up in the most ideal way to prevent any injury from sitting at a computer all day

Back in the day, IETF issued an RFC for TLAs precisely for this reason.

[–] Ironrod@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago

I'm sure there's an XKCD about this

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 6 points 10 hours ago

Three letter acronym? Do you mean a TLA?
