Toot

I got myself a heated desk pad a few weeks ago. This is a game changer. No more frozen fingers and I don't have to turn the heating up.

This is the particular model I got but there are plenty of alternatives. 60cm wide seems big enough so I'd recommend avoiding 80cm ones.

I got interested in it after looking at “slow heat” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Iz9HCcrXNI (french video).

Basically, don't heat the air as much and focus on sources of heat close to humans.

@anthony how did you go about choosing this one over others (apart from the size)?

I feel like this is something that would work wonders for me!

@nanorepublica I think I used it when at Mozilla in 2011 or 2012. It was created by genius coworker @Jamessocol and never had a reason to move away from it ever since.

@nanorepublica Ah ah ah, I answered the wrong conversation 😂 Previous message was about django-waffle.

I did not find many 60cm wide options. Others I found looked like they would have been made of fabric which is not as convenient to clean. Or the looks didn't suit me.

@anthony @nanorepublica I was gonna say, this is absolutely dope but I don't think it was me! 😅 (Though I appreciate the kind words about me and Waffle! 🧡 )
