How do people comfortably spend $2500+ on a chair they have never sat in?

Currently I have a blacklyte gaming chair which leaves me in agonizing pain every day. I can sit in it for about an hour before I have to lay on the floor and crack my back. I have insane back pain and the only time I am not in pain is when I am in bed.

I am willing to spend the money for a Herman miller embody if it will fix it, but it is so much money and I don’t understand how everyone is okay dropping several thousand dollars on this before trying it. I was looking at the libernovo chairs but that just seems like cheap shitty drop shipped crap like what I have now.

Anyone else in my situation (paralyzing back pain) and had it fixed by a Herman miller? Should I just take the plunge?

Can a 5k2k monitor play games at 4k 16:9? What about 1440p?

Hello, I have a 4080 and play older games so I’m not worried about performance, and I’d like to get the new dell 5k2k monitor. But, some games don’t support ultrawide (like dead by daylight)

So, if I wanted to play a game that was 16:9, would the monitor essentially become a 4k monitor with black bars? Or is it like 1440p where running a lower resolution looks like trash.

Also, if I do play a new game and I can’t run it, if I run the monitor at 3440x1440 will it work, or will it be streached/ugly?

Thank you for the help. Super excited for this to release.

Decided to clear out my friends list as I haven’t played in years and lost my trusted rank.

Will adding friends get it back since I’ve been it already, or will it take years and avatars uploaded again? I had no idea the friends/trusted user list worked like that.

Worth upgrading to the new slime butterflies from HTC trackers?

Currently have 3 vive trackers and I’m wanting something better. I hate setting up the dongles and unplugging other things, I hate charging them with micro usb and they are just uncomfortable and take me out of it. + I wanna get the steam frame so I wouldn’t be using base stations anymore. Thoughts?

Are there any brands that are 100% fire safe?

Hello all, looking for a fire safe, hybrid bike for someone 6 foot. Here are the things I want:

Shimano brakes and gears

Suspension

Throttle

Comfortable

Not too concerned about the speed and range, as I mainly want to use this for exercise. I just want the electric aspect for going up tougher hills and getting home when I’m tired.

Don’t really have a set budget, but I don’t wanna spend too much. I’m open to everything but it must be 100% safe to bit catch on fire.
