Earlier than you go shopping for IKEA’s Markus workplace chair, this Mastodon person says to verify it is “suitable along with your display screen.” They purchased one and found out the onerous manner that it was inflicting their display screen to go black intermittently resulting from sturdy electrostatic discharge generated by the chair’s cloth seat cowl and/or gasoline suspension. The difficulty was solely resolved when a unique chair was used. Different folks have reported related hair-raising experiences, and one potential repair includes insulating the chair with copper foil and grounding it. What? No! I provide a unique answer: Convey that chair again to IKEA STAT. (Kottke)
