Haha, totally fair. I'll admit I hadn't seen much about cyberdecks and now am a little annoyed by this article. Some questions about the ergonomics on this one for sure, but still worth sharing I suppose.

Have you seen the origin essay? As somebody into computers, mech keyboards, and woodworking, it's, uhhh, a LOT.

Dude needs to find a new sawmill, among other things. $600 is a lot for the wood required to make a cyberdeck.

This is something an arch user would buy. See my wood pc it runs arch btw

I remember some threads on reddit about wood computer housing and the case was made pretty convincingly that it was a bad idea for reasons of heat and airflow. IIRC someone had built their computer into their desk.

Looks like there is only 1 computer pictured (existing?) and it must be horrible to use. Neck would really hurt at that angle. You'd end up putting it up on a pile of books and attaching an external kb. Probably why his "stories" directory only has 3 files in it.
