WHERE DID ALL THE PEOPLE FROM THE BATTLE STATION THREADS GO?????
/bts/

THIS IS NOT MINE, I JUST LIKE TO LURK BST THREADS BUT THEY ARE NEVER AROUND NOW.

I have been lurking /g/ for about 10 years. There have almost always been constant bst threads. Where did the anons that used to be here go after the sharty attack?

>>106067484 (OP)
people left the Internet because it sucks now

>>106067484 (OP)
>Where did the anons that used to be here go after the sharty attack?
Good question. I saw some briefly go to moe during the downtime (including el furro), but that dried up quickly even well before 4chan came back.

I've always been here
Maybe not every bst thread but here in one form or another

don't open this pic UK anons
>>106067484 (OP)
At least the previous thread lasted much longer this time.

>>106067484 (OP)
need to take new pic

>>106069920
so do it then

This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them

>>106067484 (OP)
>WHERE DID ALL THE PEOPLE FROM THE BATTLE STATION THREADS GO?
There's constant complaining about how these threads are all the same people over and over so I sit most of them out.

>>106072262
This
My desk doesn’t really change that much
This isn’t Reddit, we don’t change our setups on a daily basis with mountains of color themed particleboard from Amazon
There’s not much point in sharing what’s basically the same image over and over, I usually alternate a post every few threads

>>106067484 (OP)
>lurking 10 years lol

there was literally just a bst thread anon <3

4chan and the internet have gone through various levels of aids.

Remember that the Captcha is a temporary solution and that 4chan Gold Pass is just a meme.

I just hate cleaning my shit up to take a picture, so generally don't post.

i need a bigger desk but id rather spend my money on cool shit i think ill buy two standing desks and put them together in an l shape when i have a bunch of spare cash

>>106067484 (OP)
That's mine.
Stopped posting because motivation ran out. Also annoying as fuck tranny kept shitting up the threads.

I'm restoring my bst slowly, should have a new photo once I finish some stuff.

>>106068416
I really like that lamp. Could you link me to it?

any of you have a chalk board in your home office?

i considered getting a white board, but then I figured that leaves permanent stains if you leave the marker up too long

so chalk boards would be a good idea

>>106079619
Is that a plasma tv in the centre? Also, use case for two mice?

I guess I could upload it later.

I want more monitors because I'm just such a nerd. Do you think I would need better components to have more monitors? Are there any cheap upgrades / additional components that might be able to give me a boost? I have two hdmi plugs left.

>>106083161
Nah, if you just need more screens you can use the igpu ports alongside the ones on the 1060, gonna guess 6 possible total outputs?
Worst case add a basic gpu, pick up a cheap used low end quadro and toss it in there if you have a slot open

>>106069456
sovl

>>106083218
Alright cool, thanks. I'm gonna post a picture in a sec asking what slots the ones available are

I'm unsure what these are called. I'm unsure if this is still possible with the specs I listed in >>106083161 but I think I have four additional slots for a total of eight monitors potentially.

wdym? like another roommate in a rented room?

>>106083570
It's a duplex. I have a lot of space

Hi

>>106083465
You have 1 DisplayPort on the motherboard, two DisplayPort’s and an HDMI on the gpu.
Shouldn’t be an issue to plug in any mixture of 4 more displays.

>How do you explain that to a normie?
Why would a normalfag come here?

>>106067484 (OP)
I mostly lurk
setting up my gaming laptop after repairs and troubleshooting crashing on my dreamcast by playing Rayman 2 (probably the SD Card but trying a few easier things first).

getting a new desk soon so I've given up keeping things tidy

>WHERE DID ALL THE PEOPLE FROM THE BATTLE STATION THREADS GO?????
There's been plenty over the last week or two. I haven't visited /g/ for around a year, but recently got back in the mood to say hi to you fags here.

Hi.

Here's a photo from around a year ago. Currently it's a construction site at home, so my office is now holding many things that I kept in the attic.

I just moved all my shit into a rack, and now I need to handle the power cables for everything outside the rack, so try to ignore what's under my desk

>>106077773
if you used darkmode in browser it would comfier, also don't like xbox controller blocking part of the monitor. i have a similar hitbox controller and backlit gba so i fw with those, you gotta try out the game last blade 2 on fightcade

>>106081009
>i considered getting a white board, but then I figured that leaves permanent stains if you leave the marker up too long
If you get a stain you can clean it off with a drop of acetone.

kids ruin everything, that's where i've been

>>106081009
Get a piece of frosted glass to use as one instead
The plastic ones can stain, a glass one you can clean with a blowtorch if you have to

>>106079619
man this takes me back to old bst days
>>106083161
man this would be such a kino place if you just cleaned it up. looks like a gorilla's nest
>>106084486
your wallpaper on the monitors is bad imo
and obviously you would disagree with this but the two movie posters make it feel cramped there, one big piece or one big poster more centered and filling up the majority of the wall. or something more open like a wall of masks for example. a 6x6 grid of various antique masks on that wall behind your monitors.
>>106085062
jeez that thing is wide, overall i like it tho, comfy dreamcast. you gotta play some phantasy star online
>>106085390
i like this one, good open setup.
>>106086952
i find this one particularly kino, solid desk great shape and combined with the rackmount cabinet and trinitron its nice. looks like you stream or something. model m looks good but the center most set up mouse and keyboard is trash, what is that a keychron?

>>106087007
>looks like you stream
i play on spelltable with the lads sometimes, so that document camera is for that. the other cameras, mic, and light are for our D&D nights.
>model m looks good
i turned my wife on to them years ago when i still used my SSK, yeah
>but the center most set up mouse and keyboard is trash, what is that a keychron?
i'm happy with it. both are wireless which are very helpful. yeah the keychron has been solid for me. K8. i do miss the SSK and the WASD that are down in my workroom though. the wireless deathadder is excellent.

>>106087129
>>106087024
and the desk is a solid core door blank with some stain on it. been using it since this was my setup over 12 years ago. time is wild.

>>106087024
>the two movie posters make it feel cramped there
It's a fair point, there's only three inches of white space between those two posters, compared to over 9 inches between the other three posters in my living room. The space is cramped in the literal sense, but doesn't feel like it thanks to the high ceilings. I have long been on the lookout for one big square art piece, to hang over my fireplace. Still haven't found anything I like for a bargain price.

>>106086885
>>106086885
Not my usual computer for browsing otherwise it would be in dark mode, same goes for the xbox controller sitting there. I'm setting up a CachyOS emulation "console" with ESDE and Stremio for TV. It's in dark mode now lol. Also my camera is cracked, probably the reason everything looks blown out.

>>106087160
What are you using for the table supports there? Looks cool.

>>106087559
same as i'm using here >>106086952 Ikea black Ullrik 40162496. one held my PC and the other was turned around and held a subwoofer.
nowadays, one holds kids shit and the other still holds the subwoofer plus kids shit and a power strip and the USB bank seen here

I don't have the knowledge to make a place look really, really good like in the OP. Not really the desktop, but the interior design.

>>106067484 (OP)
tl;dr how do I do this?

>>106088188
No shit; read interior design magazines from the past and modern blog equivalents online.
When you read how people casually explain the positive and negative aspects of different interior design elements you start to see what makes something look appealing.
Look at what’s going on in OPs room, take away the plants for a moment.
The rug, the runner on the table in the foreground, the fabric choice and color of the seat. They’re all complimentary textures that break up smooth surfaces. And many of the details in that space are doing that, the wood grain of the desk vs the adjacent drawers vs the floor. The positioning of items on the wall to break up the walls surface. The presence of that curtain hides the corner of a smooth flat surface.
And it’s all kept in a balance where you still want these elements like the flat face of the walls and floor to be present, but not overpowering.
And that’s not some advanced thing, that’s stuff people do passively without knowing, you just know it looks good when things are a certain way.

>>106088250

>>106088250
thanks bro

>>106088327
shut the fuck up

just moved in, no idea how/where else to put my shit at other than this. Needs to be more cozy

>>106087160
yeah i absolutely love that setup. very good, desk and supports with the cable mgmt and everything is very clean. i reckon i'd use speaker covers to keep the visual clutter down but looks good without too. about keychron etc, i hate RGB backlit shit, it's tacky at best, and at worst creates visual glare on monitors or distracts in dark rooms. there are better wireless keyboards and mice, but desu nothing wrong with wired, but rather several advantages to them. but yeah, kino setups anyway anon.

Based Yeti enjoyer.

just found a photo of my battlestation from 2006. sorry for being in the shot.

>>106106621
this screams 90s even though its 2006, honestly early 2000s just didn't feel like 2000s til about 2012.

>>106108917
NTA but it depends on the area
Rural 2000s is very much different than Suburbia or city 2000s.
IDK how many people I've seen still using late 90s era hardware well into the mid-2000s.
Only a handful of people I know had a PC that was actually bought after 2000. Most of the time a super low end socket 478 PC with XP or god forbid a Socket A system with Windows ME
It seems like in general a good chunk of the population around me got their first PC during the 90s dotcom boom and just stuck with them until mid-late 2000s. Only until people got access to broadband did people actually get an updated machine with Vista or 7.

In some ways the 2000s never rolled around. There was a period between 2006-2008 where me and a friend got some hand me down XP capable PCs even if only a 1.6Ghz P4 or a 700mhz Duron but those where only held onto for a short spell, we had access to the internet atleast.
2009 was the first year I personally had access to a PC that was current.

>>106108917
>this screams 90s
probably because I was flat broke back then, and my hardware was very dated (that keyboard was probably from the 80s). also, I am playing an emulated Amiga game in this photo.

New lamp. Also im finally at a point where I think im ready to purchase a house. Maybe by the end of the year ill be posting from it.

Oh nice, I was wondering because I’m trying to decide between 3 32 or 3 27 inch monitors but 32 might be too big

>>106117470
I had 3 monitors once, the two mentioned before and an Asus 27 inch 1080p 144Hz monitor.
I'd honestly recommend sticking to 2 monitors since 3 is overkill (especially if all three are 32 inches) unless you're stacking all three vertically.

The real shit is a compound that glows by itself on contact with a fluid, but that requires real bodily fluids and it only works for a very short time, not exactly fit for recording TV.

I just didn't want to use the laptop's own screen and wanted to put the keyboard on the laptop(Ryzen 5800H + RTX3060 mobile). I have like 5 other monitors and a lot of old-obsolete laptops and PCs.

>>106127387
Yeah, it appears to be a pretty common problem in our times. I wonder though, would focusing on building a tricked out setup fill the hole. I mean I have most of components already and at one time I did have something that represented the max of my fiscal resources could afford. But had to move away for a job and had another scaled down setup there.
I wonder if buying even more monitors, even more peripherals will continue to fill the void or would diminishing returns set in and one day nothing would scratch the itch.
I also collect watches and fountain pens. And to some extent atleast for the moment accruing things does help but isn't a silver bullet.
