Or, if you measure your car for the seat, pedals and steering wheel so you can set the ergonomics of your game console exactly right

I like the cut of your jib. Although getting another Recaro seat just for gaming might be a bit much...

I sideline as a church sound man at our portable church setup.  On my duty Sunday, when connecting up the sound cart (has the mixer board, equalizers, effects hardware, CD, etc.), I have to set up, plug in and set the time on a digital clock with big red LED's.  As I set the time, I monitor my cell phone for a transition between minutes (i.e.: for example, transition from 8:35 to 8:36).  I then set the clock to hit 8:36 right when my cell phone switches from 8:35 to 8:36.  This minimizes the uncertainty of the clock setting, and I declare a plus or minus 2 second uncertainty for the clock setting.  Luckily for me, our music leader (contemporary type person) is a high school computer teacher for his day job; and he understands what I do for a living.  So it never gets old.  I have duty this Sunday.
"I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind."
Lord Kelvin (1824-1907)
from lecture to the Institute of Civil Engineers, 3 May 1883
