When I shared a house I had one of these to stop one wanker stealing my milk. Fuck you Steve, go to a fucking shop.

You're gonna get into a gaming chair vs buy a used herman miller / other brand expensive office chair debate in this thread.
For a straight up gaming chair, I have a SecretLabs Omega gaming chair, and I really like it. It was about $300, is nicer than some of the cheaper chairs, and the bolsters aren't too crazy so you can sit in it like a human, it's not like a 'racing' chair like some of the gaming chairs. I recommend it. I am a 5'10 male about 200 lbs.
I would make sure whatever you get has at least these options:
I also use one of these on the chair, helps the tailbone out.
How about a truck driver-cushion?

Comes to roughly $1,963 for the tower itself which is pretty cheap all things considering

When they complain, just let them know you don’t think you can work a combo in your sleep so this should fix the issue.

Also, a lift like this works too: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RQ3JQMM?psc=1
I use one at work like this currently. I can stand, or sit for the day, depending on what I feel like.
Not necessarily the same as a handtruck but close to it - http://www.amazon.com/Magna-Cart-Flatform-Wheeled-Truck/dp/B002TITK8O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409066040&sr=8-1&keywords=flatbed+cart
I bought this for my mom and it is light enough for her, very compact, and easy to use. Easily folds up into a car trunk and durable as well.
Commented on a similar topic a couple of days ago, suggested they try this:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01KVKMGBE/ref=asc_df_B01KVKMGBE56752019/
That's big enough for the Switch and comes with vent holes to get the cables through, but any lock box you can fit the Switch in should work as long as you're prepared to drill holes for the cables.
This was a serious problem for me as well, but I've since solved it by using this. It makes any table or desk into a standing desk, and can also be used as a low table so I can sit on the bed or on the floor.
Could be longer than that. I slipped and fell on my tailbone a couple years ago and it still hurts sometimes. For the first 6 months or so, I had to use a pillow like this to be able to sit without too much discomfort. I literally had to take it with me everywhere. I’m young and fit, too, which made it all the more embarrassing. I’m lucky though, some people get coccyx injuries that never go away, even after surgery.
Ignore the downvotes. They’re pathetic.
I bought this a few months ago and put a $20 IKEA table top on it. I realize it’s expensive though, and the box is very heavy.
UPS left mine on the porch then it rained and the box dissolved. Even piece by piece it’s fairly heavy.

I picked up this hand cart last year, made a world of difference. Folds flat in my truck, and moves a whole lotta water packs.

I bought this thing to put on my desk, allowing me to stand when I want to. It's wonderful. I love it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RQ3JQMM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

There are folding chairs provided.
I recommend a foldable rolling cart for your tower:

This is what some of our guys use.
Be aware that the load-in process this year is.... not ideal. New security measures and just the layout of the venue mean it's just gonna be kinda awkward, particularly if you have a large tower.
I really like this one. I have had 3 back surgeries, all at L4/L5. I'm also a big guy with a butt that gets hot, and this cushion not only doesn't deform, it actually stays cool!

I actually can't stand the lumbar cushions as they make the pain worse for me. This seems to help with some of the shooting down the leg pains.
It’s a desk I bought off amazon. Thanks.

Got a 2 pair of door bar brackets from some small outfit. They are NOT the bitch shit most places push out of some machine. Dude uses thick steel and excellent welds. Each door bracket uses 8 lag bolts to adhere to King/Jack stud besides doors. I am a land lord and would only want my tenants to tell me first so I can make sure they install correctly. None have but I'd ask first.

Reddit did not like my text. here it is. I wanted to replace my glass L-shaped computer desk as I had it for 10 years and wanted to fix issues I had with it. So I laid out my requirements:
I looked at roomandboard.com, and found a table I liked, but not cheap, with shipping, around $1700.
http://www.roomandboard.com/catalog/office/desks/parsons-leg-l-shaped-desks
So can i do it myself for less?
I started by looking on r/DIY and came across pipe desks. Great idea, industrial look, and would fit in with my building as i live in a gentrified industrial neighborhood.
Here was a great example:
https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/2w3phn/pipe_and_butcher_block_ldesk/
Shoutout to u/tylergarner as I stole some of his ideas, such as the powerstrip he used and the metal mending strips. Thanks!
My issues with this DIY (not everyone has these constraints)
So i needed to solve the wood top issues and the legs problem.
Solving the Table top issue.
I looked online for options for wood, and found options besides Lumber Liquidators that have finished wood tops
www.crosscuthardwoods.com (local portland, oregon store 2 miles from my loft) - they carried two brands
http://www.amazon.com/John-Boos-Thick-Commercial-Butcher/dp/B005IZ2EZQ/ref=sr_1_19?srs=2594426011&ie=UTF8&qid=1450283655&sr=8-19&keywords=john+boos+maple
Local companies in your city may be able to order these or maybe a different brand
Benefits of buying finished
Issues - costs can be higher and staining is not possible
Things to consider if you choose this approach - Ensure you know if you wanted finished (Poly) or unfinished. You can get it either way. John Boos will burn their logo into the wood unless requested not to have name.
I decided on 60 by 30 by 1.5 inches thick Maple, square edge, poly and no logo. Good news is that crosscut had it in stock by both vendors.
John Boos $328 and Michigan Maple ($298). I went with John Boos as the finish was smoother and the wood pieces were the length of the table, not the traditional butcher block style.
I bought two.
Solving the Leg issue
I searched on line for "metal table legs" and found several vendors.
http://www.tablelegsonline.com/table-legs.html
http://www.tablelegworld.com/Table-Height-Table-Legs
Ikea sells them as well
I was unsure the height so i went with cheap and fast, adjustable black legs from Ikea. $15/each needed 7 ($105 total)
One of the two tables is short a leg, below I talk about how i support the missing leg.
https://us-mg5.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?action=showLetter&umid=2_0_0_1_344973_AIt2imIAABORVnERMgfrWKGy%2F3A&box=Inbox&src=td&.rand=1808515774
The legs are ok, adjustable, and low shine black, but not as rigid as I wanted. Not an issue when assembled, but more just me knowing it could be better. I later found out that i could buy the cool square legs from Room and Board for $40 a piece.
Connecting the two tables together
I saw that u/tylergarner used a window sash to connect the two tables together and I was going to run with that, but I then saw this idea on the crosscut site.
http://www.crosscuthardwoods.com/tite-joint.html
I loved the idea of tite joint, but as I did not want to burrow into the table so i looked around and found this, which I installed.
http://www.wwhardware.com/epco-joint-fasteners-e0026e $15 shipped.
I bought a much longer screw from Ace HW to enable more space between the brackets so I am not screwing too close to the edge.
You may be able to go to a countertop store and buy one from them as they use them to connect countertops together.
Supporting the missing leg
I installed two of the following
http://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-10-in-Zinc-Plated-Mending-Plate-15390/202034036 ($3 each) I used #12 screws to mount these.
These work very well, zero sag, even after sitting on it for a few mins (155lbs).
Costs before my options (Around $800). So I saved $900 over the room and board solution. I am happy.
Options I chose to install.
Wire management - Ikea
Cheap and highly effective. $10 each, bought three.
http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30200253/
Drawer to hold pens, paper and the like
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KWM8EEK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
Love it, $35 from amazon - did not find many options here. Maybe searched on the wrong terms
Power Strip
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0027D3LNG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s01
Lots of plugs and spaced out so no conflicts accessing them, $28 amazon
Adjustable Keyboard Tray
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B0DCOO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00
$95 and a crappy 3M design, sticks about 1 inch out from the edge of the table when installed as designed. would not buy again.
How did i mount my PC underneath my desk?
I had a smaller version of the following.
http://www.storables.com/10-x-24-shelf.html
I used 1.5 inch fender washers and screws where the legs go to mount to the table, then I used cable ties to hold of the PC (intel NUC) and USB drives.
Note:
I did not use any of the screws provided in the legs, or options i selected. Maple is very hard and the philip screws they provided strip very, very, very easy. I went to my local Ace Hardware store and bought my screws. 5 min walk and could by individually versus a whole box from HD/Lowes. Saved money and frustration.
I generally got the biggest diameter screws I could get the fit the hole for the legs, and they are in there, zero issues. Ensure you drill pilot holes to avoid splitting the wood, I followed this guide for hardwood and was mostly successful http://engineershandbook.com/Tables/woodscrewpilotholes.htm
Options to lower costs
http://www.homedepot.com/p/JELD-WEN-30-in-x-80-in-Woodgrain-Flush-Solid-Core-Unfinished-Hardwood-Interior-Door-Slab-THDJW160700464/202036255

to drop off orders at the customer? i use this and highly recommend it i keep it in my trunk and it folds/unfolds easy.
It's okay, I can see how it would be a sarcastic question. Can't see feeling through text so it's understandable. I found this on Amazon though, does it look like what you're looking for?
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002YERS32/ref=redir_mdp_mobile
edit: I know it's not a chair/tray combo. But if you picked up a nice inexpensive computer chair you could just attach it I'm sure.
http://www.amazon.com/Mobo-Chair-Mount-Keyboard-System/dp/B002YERS32
I've ordered these:
Office chair stoppers
I wonder how they'll work.
as long as the board is hot-swappable, you can use a knife to carefully pry up the switches or get one of these.

I wouldn't trust those flimsy trays on side rails. 3M makes some very sturdy adjustable key board trays which come in various sizes and have adjustable height / tilt, too. These are designed for commercial use and are much stronger.
https://www.amazon.com/3M-Keyboard-Standard-Antimicrobial-AKT60LE/dp/B001B0DCOO

Something like this is even better, and will save you from trying to keep it on an angle while pulling.

Have HIM purchase the groceries. Purchase your own groceries and keep a lock box if you must to separate the "good stuff" from the cheap foods.
Btw, NTA.
He's acting very selfish and hogging the food. It's not "first come, first served" in a household or a loving relationship. My boyfriend tries to make sure I have the bigger pork chop, and I always give him extra steak. You ideally want a partner that wants more for you, not less.
Idk. Not saying break up but try the fridge lock and the separate groceries for a bit.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0781BQL4X/
Not even that though. It's a mechanical switch that follows ordinary specifications, meaning the switch is designed as a module that can be removed and replaced with no soldering required - mechanical keys are primarily not soldered on to make it easy for companies where they don't have to separate production lines for each mechanical key variant you sell - just different switches that you pop in.
They only cost a dollar, and if you're not certain whether it's the switch, or the board underneath, you can always swap it with a working one. Some motherboards come with the tool for grabbing the keycaps themselves, but you can also buy them for $5.
EDIT: Also, 90% certain that he's using a HyperX Alloy model, which are like $80 to $140.
When I first started working in an office I had back pain. I bought a cushion like this: https://smile.amazon.com/ComfiLife-Gel-Enhanced-Seat-Cushion/dp/B014F18ZGU/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1549322526&sr=8-3&keywords=chair+cushion
My back pain basically went away. In addition, you can do some exercises that help. I believe a major cause of chronic back pain is either your core or your glutes so you can try some exercises like glute bridges. Something like 3x10 glute bridges each night should help in the long run.
I was in bed for the first two weeks and essentially housebound for 2-3 more. I did LOTS of PT in advance and thus I’m recovering ahead of schedule. And that means I’m finally now clear to walk as much as I can tolerate, which is about a mile a day of total steps. I can sit maybe 1.5h without too much pain on a good day. And I still live with ice packs multiple times a day and a heating pad for the spasming muscles in the rest of my leg and core.
Something like this was key https://www.amazon.com/Executive-Office-Solutions-Mount-Notebook-Macbook-Light-Sitting-Black/dp/B00RQ3JQMM/
Also puzzles, audiobooks, a laptop, and http://thescientificartist.blogspot.com/2018/04/bed-bound-and-bored-or-perfect-plein.html

Thanks - I built the top out of red oak but the hydraulic legs are made by Jarvis which you can buy here. The memory board that comes with it is great. You can save up to 4 different heights.
The table-top they sell is actually really great as well. I have it at my office which somewhat inspired this build.
I just paid $16.95 for each, which is cheaper than it was when I bought one a little over a year ago (at $18.95, but only fulfilled by Amazon sold by someone else) though more expensive than when I bought the first 2 two years ago at (at $13.30 both sold directly by Amazon).
The same company that makes these things makes a slightly larger and taller version for around $25 (12-Inch W x 8.5-Inch D x 8.75-Inch H. Each step measures 2.75-Inch D.) or you can buy a 4 pack of the larger ones

Thank you for the giveaway, lots of good games here!
I am interested in Mafia 2! I've played the demo over and over again for hours, but I have always wanted to play the full game.
I keep comfortable in my long gaming sessions using a way that might help you too. I have back problems, so I bought a seat cushion designed for that, and I place it on top of my gaming chair- That usually helps!

I've also found this little chair attachment called the Mobo Chair Mount, anyone have one?
Maybe something crazy like this if you've got a chair to mount it to.
Fitueyes DT106004GW
[Here is its] (https://www.amazon.com/Executive-Office-Solutions-Mount-Notebook-Macbook-Light-Sitting-Black/dp/B00RQ3JQMM/ref=sr_1_1?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1506016180&sr=1-1&keywords=laptop+stand). I have to stack some books underneath it so it's high enough, but it works pretty well.
Another vote for compression stockings.
I also use a desk footrest like this one. It gives some elevation and encourages me to move my feet around.
I kick my shoes off under the desk, just to help keep my feet from turning into loaves in shoes.
Of course.
Here is the exact unit I ordered.
I've had it for months and this thing continues to retain its shape.
I highly recommend it.
This is where I got mine from. But depending on where you are, that might not be much help to you. These here are the same thing but on Amazon. They come in a pack of four, but you can find them individually if you look around. I've seen them on plenty of sites in the US for sale. The struggle for me was finding them here in Australia. Importing them cost a bundle in shipping and they're pretty hard to find from local places.
Here is what has worked for me for years:
I am a female pelvic pain patient w PFD (and recently excised endometriosis) so it might not be exactly the same, but I found great relief while sitting by using a foam cushion with the tail bone piece removed.
I couldn't find the exact one I bought but here's one that's the same kind of design. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V2L5JRA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_btfbBbDVQ2XZW
Hope this helps!!
I have the same one. Link here. It's great. I was always trying to rest my feet on my case or subwoofer, both of which have sharp corners. You won't regret getting one, but you might have to vacuum it every few weeks.
I got a Vivo from amazon 189.00, plus a dual monitor mast 25.99. It has functioned very nicely so far (5 months) and a few co-workers have also ordered them.

How do I get the flair where I can put my computer specs like you have? I wanted to do that for this post but couldnt figure out how to do it.
As far as I know Dragon NaturallySpeaking (now renamed Dragon Professional Individual since version 15) is significantly more accurate than Kaldi, but I have never investigated Kaldi thoroughly: it isn't plug-and-play.
I personally use Dragon NaturallySpeaking and have defined a bunch of simple voice commands. When coding, I use a mixture of voice commands and typing. The best source of information on Dragon that I am aware of is http://knowbrainer.com/forums/forum/index.cfm? I haven't taken the time yet to explore Dragon NaturallySpeaking's extension Vocola and Natlink: they may make defining voice commands more efficient and powerful.
It's a shame that Baidu/Google/Microsoft, who all the claim to match human performances for speech recognition, do not have any decent speech recognition program to use on a computer (a speech rotation program that could be used anywhere in the OS, and not just in the browser or in some specific applications).
Some links that may be of interest to you:
As a side note, my main motivation in using a speech recognition software is productivity: it is easily three times faster than typing (and I am a fast typer). So it's not just about relieving pain. I think more people would use it if they were aware of that.

Some miscellaneous ideas in addition to speech recognition:
What you can do to prevent/reduce the pain is quite personal, but here are some suggestions:
----------
My experience: I use all above-mentioned suggestions except armrest cover (bump into my ErgoRest), wrist pad (never liked it), and I have several mice of the same type.

This is the hammock I use. The mounts are hidden in this picture, one of them is behind my case and the other behind the plant.
Switch pullers are like $4, or many similar pieces of metal would work. You could do it with a small screwdriver if you'e a bit creative, even. One side at a time. If you have two you're all set.
The 2x4s would fit in an open or closed brackets, for easy removal when you want out - pics: https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Open-Security-Brackets-Boards/dp/B00H1BRXYM

Yeah I used to do the same. Partially why I got it. It’s this one:

I like it and use it constantly. It’s a nice change of pace for your feet if you’re sitting there for hours with feet flat on the ground.

Problem solved.
You can also install a door security bar. It's like an oversized deadbolt. Here's one example, but you can find a bunch of different types on Amazon. Here's one that's just a wall mount and you use your own 2x4.
Personally, I have found a lot more use from the Magna Cart Flatform (or a similar product).
It is really sturdy and can carry a lot of weight, and you can stack boxes or bags on it. More than anything, I like the fact that it folds up flat so is easy to stow away.
I've been plotting these:

Totally awesome, have used them at home and work for 6 years.
I'm so excited for you all as well! I've reached the weird final detail stages as I'm currently gluing a plate to a candle holder to make a tall "cake stand" for our pie topper dinosaurs to go on the dessert table. I need to make one final ribbon curtain as I weirdly spazzed and thought I had already made it (nope). Need to pack all the stuff that is currently taking up the dining table (this rolling cart thing is a godsend when moving items in bins). FH and I are going on an adventure day on Tuesday to get our marriage license, a massage, and try out a float tank. Have such an awesome time at your shindigs, everyone!

I'm sorry for the long links
You're more than welcome, I'm glad to help!
I totally understand your position regarding the K63. As I said, if you already have a good pair of keyboard and mouse, that device isn't worth the investment. I only mentioned it because I thought you were more interested in a true lapboard rather than a "lap desk".
I actually purchased a couple of lap desks in the past, but with my laptop in mind: this one and this one.
The second one is really good for laptops when you're lying in bed or on the couch, but I wouldn't recommend it for kb/m use. As for the first option, it works much better as an actual desk replacement, and there's a larger sized version that could be perfect for you, depending on your intended use.
Are you planning on using that desk while sitting on the couch, like Paul does on the video I linked? Then I can vouch for it. If you're thinking about using it while lying down, however, that desk is still too "tall" and uncomfortable to use, even at its lowest height setting.
The one you linked also looks like a nice option, but I'm concerned about those legs - they look rather flimsy. If you're going to support it on a solid base, like a coffee table, it probably won't be an issue. But if you're actually balancing the table on the sofa's cushions, then I'd suggest going for something a little more robust.
I'm also looking for a stand and saw this one
I don't plan on placing my Xbox underneath it. I have it on it's stand to the side of my desk.

I'm also 5' tall and have this issue, I use a foot rest though to keep my feet flat on something.

IKEA countertop of some kind, IKEA legs, and a...foot hammock! (ottomans and other footrests are also valid choices here).
If you have a big enough vehicle to carry it get a full sized folding dolly/hand truck with larger (preferably inflatable) wheels.
I have one of the smaller versions that folds up flat but the wheels are small and hard plastic that sends all the shocks from brick sidewalks or rocky surfaces straight up through my stack of gear when I'm dragging it in and makes it much easier for things to get bounced off compared to a more traditional full size dolly.
I can't fit a full size dolly in my car with my full rig so the flat pack works well enough but it can be precarious loading in across different surfaces with those smaller casters.
Table tote easily 2nd best imho. You should try out some version of this kind of stand:

Maybe something like this. We got something similar for our bad chairs and it was way better.
Like these or these?
Or do you mean like a horizontal extension?
It could potentially help, but it also might not. Definitely talk to your doctor about keto before starting. I have an autoimmune disorder and keto definitely helped with swelling in my joints and around high nerve density areas. That said, while a systemic reduction in inflammation may help, you may want to also get some external aids, like braces and such. My worst thing was with my forearms and hands going numb, so I got these foam things for my desk chair and it helped quite a bit as well.

Not only plan for the wait time but also the traffic. A friend almost missed her flight yesterday because of two different crashes. If she hadn't been a Clear member she would have not made it through security in time. I always allow travel time plus two hours at the airport. Sometimes that airport time is used for unexpected travel delays.
Does a butt pillow help with the sitting pain? I fell on my ass and that's the only thing that made sitting bearable while it healed.

It looks like a 3M adjustable keyboard tray (I might be wrong on the brand though) they are pretty expensive, I have one similar at my workplace and they are really nice to use, it's worth the investment if you are looking for better ergonomics, I'm starting the build of my next desk soon and it will include an adjustable keyboard tray like this one.
Get an under-desk tray, something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/3M-Keyboard-Standard-Platform-Precise/dp/B001B0DCOO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1422044563&sr=8-2&keywords=keyboard+tray

Fits most chairs with arms, even ones with big curves (there's a curve adapter included for each arm). For this setup you just need the arms and foldout pads, the keyboard tray stayed in the box.
I have tried "gaming" chairs and "deck" chairs and I really despise them all. They don't stay still because of the wheels and swively bits. I much prefer a plain wooden dining chair with a Coccyx Cushion on it.

I know what you mean. I grew up with two brothers and I found out that they were eating ice cream every day after school and that's why we never had ice cream left for family nights. I started doing the same thing because it was the only way I could get something approaching an equal share. My poor mom had to buy separate sweets for herself that were strictly off limits to the rest of us. Luckily, in our family, leftovers and things bought with your own money and properly claimed were respected, so I started doing the same thing when I got a job.
You need one of these until your husband can learn his lesson.

Explanation of Part Choices
5 foot 5.5 inches and I'm heavy. I don't do gaming chairs (nothing against them just never found them practical). I just do general office chairs and I look for one that rated around 50-100 lbs more then I am. I also look for chairs with a metal base since I find them more durable. As for my feet not reaching that isn't a problem for me because I use the desk foot rests because I find I am more comfortable with my feet elevated an extra 6-8 inches. I generally try to find office chairs that are rated for at least 6-8 hour a day sitting because they are built sturdier. I'm a very utilitarian type gal. I can't even tell you what my current chair is because I have no clue but I did get it from an office store since they rate their chairs by hours of usage so you know the durability before you buy. This isn't the exact foot rest brand I have but it is similar. Maybe it will help with the whole feet not meeting the ground thing. https://www.amazon.com/Under-Non-Slip-Ergonomic-Footrest-Cushion/dp/B01BRU9CDW/ref=sr_1_25?qid=1574657430&s=office-products&sr=1-25

I'm planning on making an adjustable height desk from a Jarvis frame and one of two Ikea table tops. I'd like to install a hanging drawer on the bottom of the desk for my midi piano keyboard toward the back -- so that it's out of my way when I'm working, but can slide out when I want to use it.
Since the desk is going to be 25"-30" deep, I figure I'll need slides that extend to about 40". The keyboard is 11bs (and about 40" wide) and I can't imagine the material for the drawer/tray will weigh too much, but all of the slides I can find at this length are pretty expensive and rated for 200+ lbs.
Any suggestions on less expensive options of with a length of around 40"? Also, the desks are only 1 1/8" thick -- so I'm wondering if 3/4" screws will be enough to support the weight of the drawer.

I have this one on the left that came with one of my boards. There are other specialized versions from retailers. I googled switch puller for it. It basically pinches the switch and to unclip it from the plate.
Thanks! You have a nice display yourself.
I got the steps from amazon.

I hear really good things about this one
http://www.staples.ca/en/Staples-Hyken-Technical-Mesh-Task-Chair-Black/product_990119_1-CA_1_20001
AND it's on sale RIGHT NOW! But do your own research first.
http://www.staples.ca/en/Staples-Bilford-Manager-s-Chair-Black/product_388248_1-CA_1_20001
The above is the one I own. I got it on sale for about $150 as well.
Mine can tilt the seat / back together simultaneously, or I can tilt the back separately as a recliner. This feature was very important for me when I went to purchase. It's better for comfort if you ask me.
I use it for gaming often. But I bought a foam seat cushion as well. I'll probably upgrade to one of those coccyx cushions in the future.

If you talk to Staples staff they can usually tell you if an item is planning to go on sale within 2 weeks / 1 month timeframe. So buy with confidence and price-match.
You can buy replacement "fix" feet for you any office chair. They should just pop out. That is what I did with mine.
Something like this:
Replacement Office Chair or Stool Bell Glides
I use this, except it didn't cost $35.
I just tried installing one of these last week. There just wasn't enough of a gap. I put the hinge protectors on, and the door had to be forced to close the last couple inches. With either the deadbolt or doorknob guard or the long frame plate installed, the door wouldn't even close. It's a metal door frame so I can't mortise anything. I took it all off and I just have to live with some extra-long screws.
And, it's not a great metal frame, and it's a pretty standard door. The metal frame probably helps some, but it's not heavy duty by any means.
So I'm going to just get a set of these and say FTW.
Something like this, but with a latch that can only be opened from behind the wall:https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Open-Security-Brackets-Boards/dp/B00H1BRXYM#immersive-view_1505486994383
Use a lap desk or mount a board across the arms of the chair. If you are willing to buy a gaming treadmill I'm sure you could buy or mod a command chair. I know some companies sell mouse island sleeves for chair arms already.

http://mousepaw.com/
edit: personally I would probably make something similar to the mobo thing out of wood myself or mod a nice keyboard tray to fit to chair rather than deal with flimsy plastic and small islands.
Beanbag bottom lap desks would be great but aren't wide enough for my g13 +keyboard+mousepad/mouse which is about 2'10" across all three if I am using a G19 keyboard. There are smaller keyboards out there though. If I didn't have to type messages in a game I could skip the keyboard altogether and just use G13 + mouse on an island at the end of each arm of my chair but that's not realistic for overall use dropping out of games.
I attached it but it was set up to do that. I just added some heavy duty velcro to keep everything stable.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002YERS32/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_RpVavb1M90F33
pillows + e-tables (kinda like this) are my go-to, it's easier on the back than sitting/standing but don't expect to stay there indefinitely, after some hours you'll start to feel uncomfortable
there are some 'gamig desks' with proper cup-, and headphone holders on Amazon, some of them even has rgb lighting.

Thanks. It's this one from Amazon. Looks like it's sold out currently, but other outlets may have it in stock.
I just looked for sales on Amazon. The problem is that prices can vary a lot (and spending a lot doesn't mean you get a great chair).
I bought this one in 2017, but I spent only $120 on it, not the $220 it is now. I love it, but wouldn't have spent twice as much on it.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EUU5G82/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If you happen to live near an office supply place (if retail still exists), they usually have floor models you can try out. Otherwise, I just watch Amazon for sales (again obviously prices really vary) and look for something that looks good. Ordering online unfortunately involves taking a little leap of faith as you can't try it out.
It doesn't hurt to throw in a little support for the backside as well. I cracked a tailbone when I was younger (a real pain in the a**!) so one of these are cheap and really make those longer sessions more comfortable.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V2L5JRA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I highly recommend it! Also awesome set up!
Ikea markus, and dxracer chairs are pretty good. I personally have a dxracer chair, they're pretty good and comfy, orange to be exact haha. You can't go wrong with either. You could even look for used chairs such as steelcase or herman miller on ebay, craigslist and the like. I'd recommend getting this for the arms of the chair, they're very comfortable and worth the price. If you have any questions let me know I'm glad to help!
Thanks!

Maybe a little pricey but I think they're worth it when paired with the detolf.
Took me a bit to find the link, but I'm 100% that it's this one.
Agreed - I had surgery for a cyst near my tailbone and even many years later still have pain when sitting too long. I have one of these for my office chair and would recommend it or something similar for OP's girlfriend while flying: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V2L5JRA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Just got one this adjustable one and I really like it. The keyboard tray is a little short for me when I'm standing (6'5"). Otherwise, it works great and I'm definitely feeling less like a piece of shit at the end of the work day.
NTA. You should buy one of these.
