FYI, I curate setups like these on https://reddit.com/r/ergomobilecomputers
I use to be able to read Reddit links on my phone browser, now they simply it a useless banner preventing me from being able to even read the thing unless I download their tracker. Now, I need to train my brain to never click on Reddit links when reading HN on phone :-(
Omg thank you. Having some massive pain in my shoulder (when externally rotating my arm), and I think it’s due to moving my arm out to get the trackpad/mouse. I’m going to try this keyboard setup deal with the track pad in the center.
My travel workstation consists of a SFF 13L PC, a Meta Quest 2 VR Headset, and the paired Logitech K830 keyboard. No battery but it all fits into a carryon roller at 8Kgs with cables and it's a true workstation as in high end GPU/CPU/RAM with multiple monitors. I call it an All-in-One-Office-on-Wheels-in-a-Box !

[0] - Any of the several chairs I tried. So it's not just about the chair, I think.
What's the static electricity story here? I personally avoid any and all metal fixtures around my work desk, because I invariably end up being painfully shocked by them every time I shift on the chair[0]. At this point I habituated having small metal objects around me (e.g. key bundles), that I can use to discharge static before/during getting up, sitting down, etc. Where 'ianthehenry mentioned here[1] they've made a…

How does reading text (I presume) work for you using a VR headset? That was my main gripe with VR, I think that was the original Oculus Quest, in that I couldn't read text very well. I need glasses as well, only a minor thing, but enough to give me eyestrain / headaches when trying to read text.

Seconded. I lived in Phoenix for a few years and the static was awful. Maybe OP lives in a humid place?
