R.I.P to greasy-oily controller buttons or analogue stick then, depending which hand you use the cheetos for.

You can call it 'overreaction' but the idea that a key part of gameplay rewards is triggered off of something that can easily be ruined by server issues or your opponent rage-disconnecting is something that needs to be focused on and addressed, not swept under.
any recommendations on a good bike? I was thinking of getting a treadmill to watch rockets games in one of my spare bedrooms rooms and create a little home gym, but this sounds like a good idea too bc I can use it for both until I can afford a treadmill.

So I actually have a combo rower-bike. The one I have is an older model I don't see it on Amazon anymore. Here's a similar one:

I basically use it in bike mode when gaming, and rowing mode when watching TV/netflix. It's been one of the better purchases I've ever made, especially when it comes to workout equipment.

You should always end up getting whatever you'll use most faithfully. But I would not recommend recumbents if you want to exercise strenuously at least a fair amount of time.

There's more strain with an upright, but...that means it involves more muscles throughout your body, even if only for accessory stabilization.

And uprights also have smaller footprints.

If you get an upright, I'd recommend that you look for a good-quality "spin" style bike, which will have better adjustability than the more "mainstream" gym ones that have electronic readouts and such.

I have low ceilings which is why I didn't go for an upright. but also I get a lot of upper body workout from the rower component
