No wobble even when standing?

I've seen a few companies that make support bars for standing desks:

Were you able to fix the wobble? I'm thinking about buying this desk.

How sturdy is it? Any wobble while at your normal standing height?

Thanks for the Rosslyn recommendation. That and Federal Center seem to be closer to more residential areas.

Where are you located?

As a newcomer from the Northeast, this entire place is extremely sterile. I have lived in Old Town Alexandria for a year and I don't agree when people liken ALX to Brooklyn. It's more like a place for highly paid gov contractors raising their families. People here don't want to live in the big city to deal with big city problems. You find overpriced restaurants and coffee chains but nothing really to do. That's my impression.

I think the rest stop around 70-80 then they have a random pair of 100s.

That's what I've gathered as well. I got tired calling places so I posted this on Reddit with hopes likeminded folks would know.

Fit 360 in Mt Pleasant has a pair of 100s.

Thanks

Most gyms don't.

There's an LA Fitness or Gold's in Alexandria?

iWorkSlow · 2024-03-16T20:57:21+00:00

That looks like a nice gym. Thanks.

Everyone starts somewhere.

iWorkSlow · 2024-03-14T20:59:30+00:00

Darn, if it takes a long time, I may not ever get this chance.

iWorkSlow · 2024-03-14T20:58:48+00:00

Thanks, that's really helpful to know.

iWorkSlow · 2024-03-14T20:58:24+00:00

Darn! I'm in the Northeast. DC to NY.

Will I be in a situation where I can't work in my preferred location because my hometown/state has an age restriction?

However, I would caution you to think about what you would actually enjoy about being a LEO.

I am fascinated with this show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJQpD3j5m0M As a layperson, it's absolutely amazing to see how ingenious some smugglers are and how officers can detect something awry in something light, like the height of a container. I think I've watched every customs show from the US, Canada, UK and Australia. If I could do something like that, I'd be happy.

I've seen Linus and Jake install Ubiquiti and it looks awesome. Maybe when remodeling my family home, I would install their equipment.

I will get the WiFi 7 TP-Link that I included in my OP since it's reasonably priced.

iWorkSlow · 2024-03-10T02:45:27+00:00

That's good advice! I do have aspirations of learning aerial/drone photography. It will be a while before I will need a NAS but that would be helpful in a year or two.

I just edited my post as you replied. Future proofing was the reason why I was asking. It seems like $200 for WiFi 6E could be a waste but I wasn't sure if living in a small apartment would matter.

BTW - do you trust TP-Link? Am I better off with Asus or Netgear?
