My desk height is set with a GET.

I was going to fix it, but considering how hilarious this is I might not.

Your desk runs a web server? I need to step up my game...

    Yeah, it's a sit/stand Linak desk.

    I hooked up an ESP32, 2 channel relay (up/down control), and distance sensor (to detect height). Pushes height to graphite and position is settable remotely. :)

I get that it's cool, but I'm missing the why? Would you ever need to change your desk height when you're not already at your desk? Wouldn't manually changing the height be easier than hitting an HTTP endpoint on your PC to adjust it? Maybe I'm missing something, and like I said, I'll give oyu that it's cool and that alone is sometimes reason enough.

    I'm a hacker, I did it because it's cool and I wanted to learn.
