Does your PC identify that as a desktop, or is it completely through icue? I've always been curious how that worked on those.
Yeah, that would be annoying to have your mouse floating over there if it counts as a separate normal monitor.

Strange update on this chair. I was sitting in it the other day and a small tear on the left side of my ass formed. When I sat down, I heard a ripping sound. I don't recall there being a small hole which could lead to a rip. I guess the mesh seat material was getting a little old. So I looked into my old purchase information. Thank god gmail holds onto things if I only archive them and not delete. I bought it back in December, 2013. And apparently Herman Miller offers a 12 year warranty, and this was now just a few weeks beyond that 12-year mark. They asked when the damage started to appear, so I quickly said it was almost a month earlier. It seems the mesh my chair had is no longer sold, but there is a "new" style of the same thing. To comply with their own warranty standards, they're going to send me a brand new seat and back mesh for the chair. Pretty awesome of the company. Just wanted to share that.

I read this man, and the 1st thing I thought of was some weird trans shit. Here we fuckin go, that they have conditioned my black ass to even CONSIDER that in my head over your totally normal reasonable question.
But to answer your question. Windows sees it as a second monitor. It is annoying once in awhile my mouse slides to that second "monitor".

And THAT is why you pay the extra money. Painless customer support.

iCue still sucks but it's not as bad as it was even a couple years ago.

You're not wrong. I had no idea this chair had any sort of warranty, let alone 12 years worth. I had to replace the arm rest a long time ago, because it tore due to constantly hitting my desk. Fortunately, Amazon had replacements that worked. I just called Herman Miller to see if I could purchase a new seat mesh, and that's when they started to investigate and told me there's a 12-year warranty. Impressive.

Yet another new update as of today. Herman Miller reached out to say that they ordered me a brand new chair that will be delivered in a few weeks. They're doing this because the seat i had that was ripped is no longer made, so instead of just replacing the seat and back, their just going to give me something entirely new. Holy shit, I'm amazed.

My father was big into the idea of "heritage guns" for some reason. I think it has to do with his father some. As my grandfather gave several exquisite, art piece quality, long rifles to my uncle at some point in the 80s. My uncle sold them later as he had zero interest in guns in general. This rustled my father. Anywho when he passed away he had 8 art piece quality long rifles and revolvers he intended for me to have. I am not a gun nut but I will oblige him so I took them.
My kids are getting older and more curious about stuff so I bought a gunsafe just to store them in from Bass Pro shop. Worked perfectly well for FIVE FUCKING DAYS. Now the keypad wont accept the combination. I called customer support and they're sending me a replacement. If that doesn't work they'll send me a locksmith. Thankfully the safe just has some guns and bullion in it but still. God damn what a piece of shit. This is a liberty safe. Nothing special and I expected it to not break on me less than a week after buying it.
