Pretty poor design all around.

Also illegal here in Denmark, if you use it while working from home. Desks must be height adjustable. Your employer is responsible for providing ergonomically correct office equipment. Basically any influencer and YouTuber who's showing "clever" desk hacks or builds fails because their creations aren't height adjustable.

And my cat sleeps behind the laptop anyway.


Remarkable. What else is illegal there?

You can't stuff workers into rooms/offices without access to daylight.

In Sweden, not checking on your cat at least twice daily is illegal

Not proper bacon, which seems to be illegal in the USA!

Not illegal, but much harder to find than the sliced, cured belly meat (often from the side of the belly) usually meant when we just say “bacon” without qualification. One can get Canadian bacon, cured side bacon, cured back bacon, uncured pork belly, uncured side meat, uncured back meat, turkey bacon, beef bacon, and several other things in bacon-like categories. If you just say “bacon”, though, you’re probably going to get pork belly meat cured with salt and/or some form of sugar, and possibly smoked.

This comment made this post worthwhile. Thanks for the tip!

Wait, what? Can you chose not to use a height-adjustable desk, and your employer is only responsible for offering you one, or are you 100% forced into using a height adjustable desk?

For work you must use a height adjustable desk. It doesn't have to be electric, you just need to be able to adjust it to your correct work height. If you don't use it, and I don't know work at your kitchen desk, that's technically a violation of workspace rules. Your boss tell you to use a proper desk, because if they don't they can be fined.

You also can't use the keyboard and trackpad on your laptop. You must be provided with a separate keyboard, mouse/trackpad/trackball and a monitor. Working on your laptop is for emergencies or very brief tasks.


So in other words my preferred way of working (laptop on couch) is literally illegal? What an insane nanny state lol.

For real, what is that? World of Warcraft icons on a generic fantasy background?

The conclusion that saving water is greenwashing is just wrong.

Edit: parent changed his answer, I have included it now.


Very likely.

The guide is not mentioning that you have to 100% trust some pseudonymous guys on the internet that build the image.

We already have to trust that none of the people involved in the official images are foreign (or even domestic) intelligence agents, so it's not that different.

No, it's extremely different. Like trusting a massive bank or a dude in an alley.

Plus, if NSA and the Mossad actively try to surveil you all bets are lost.


No, if an HSM is compromised everything is lost.

It's pretty crazy to trust such project to run your phone.

Treason.

very poorly
