It's Thursday, February 27, 2020. Hey, good morning! You look fabulous.  Buying a gaming chair when space is often at a premium and when it has to at least make some effort to blend with your home is mostly impossible. Now, iconic furniture company Herman Miller and Logitech's gaming hardware brand, Logitech G, are teaming up to create a line of ergonomic furniture for gamers, starting with a chair -- of course. The companies plan to incorporate feedback from esports teams like Complexity Gaming, TSM and NaVi to make sure they deliver on gaming comfort and support. Herman Miller is perhaps best known for its legendary, thousands-of-dollars Eames Lounge Chair, but the company has been in the (corporate) smart-furniture business for a while. It’ll be interesting to see how Herman Miller and Logitech split the difference on aesthetics and color palettes. Lest you forget, this is a Logitech keyboard. Hmm.

Best of all, you get an image up to 120 inches in size for a fraction the price of a comparable TV. The biggest flaw is with the built-in streaming apps, which don’t work in 4K. However, that’s easily resolved with the purchase of a 4K streaming stick or 4K Blu-ray player. | | Sponsored Content by Stack Commerce | | A flat fee to repair anything that’s wrong with it.  Looking for an environmentally conscious smartphone? Teracube is an Android smartphone with a four-year premium care warranty. It would only cost around $300, and the phone would be completely covered for four years. Cracked display? Blocked charging port? Bad battery? No matter what happens to it, you can pay a flat fee of $39 to send it back and get a refurbished version in return. Teracube would then attempt to repair your old one and either resell or ship it to another customer who might've broken their phone. The specs are decent enough, and the vision is admirable, but could you keep the same phone for that long? | | Former Konami employee Kazuhisa Hashimoto was 61.  Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a and start. It's the most famous cheat code in all of gaming -- and one of the only ones I can recall. Its creator, former Konami employee Kazuhisa Hashimoto, has sadly died, aged 61. The code has become a cultural touchstone, hidden in countless games, Canadian currency, song lyrics and, well, Fortnite. | | But wait, there's more... | | | |
