I imagine it's promoting fairly poor posture. I would end up with a migraine from the neck strain.
Just like using a laptop.
Looks like the certificate on their site expired though, so I've no idea whether they're still in business.

I was wondering how they can run that cpu without any cooling.. Then they say it goes up to 90°C .. That's way too hot! thats like laptop / mac temperatures. It will function sure, but it wont last, it will degrade relatively quickly.
I'm running a similar setup with Linux (Manjaro) and a Streacom FC8 case with a Nano PSU (no coil whine).
I have been so happy about this system that I almost never talk about it. It is a tool that does its job well to my needs and gets out of the way.
Wow, that is impressive both from the device _and_ from the author. I wonder how many displays support controls over USB? Personally, I hate having to manually adjust my display's brightness in the evening.
Edit: This got me curious and after digging it looks like some utilities can actually control the hardware backlight brightness, like xbacklight on linux: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/backlight#xbacklight
You can also use xrandr to control the signal brightness, but that's not really the same as controlling the hardware.
I have similar but not so extreme inclinations towards fan noise. I settled to build my desktop with a simple NZXT case, intel 8th gen CPU running Arch Linux with CPU governor set to Performance. The pSU is an ATX power supply that is rated for 750W, while I could barely get to half that with full load(which means PSU’s fans almost never need to spin up). The CPU is cooled by an oversized NH D-15 Noctua air cooler wi…
But getting software control to bump that up to 12V when needed could take some extra steps/hardware. But if you use the system lightly enough, it’ll be cooler in its norma state and might not need the extra cooling oomph.
Heat kills!

One option here is to wire up the fans to run at 7V (connect negative to 5V line), or even 10V (by connecting to -5V and +5V).
