    @atrilahiji Niiice! GG +1 How do you like the triple monitors? what about 2 or 4?
    I am currently half at home/office but my best upgrade at home has to be the Husky workbench aka standing desk lol
    IMG_1153222.jpg
    Not running 4 monitors anymore, went down to 2 but am putting the 3rd back ๐Ÿ™„ Also I have moved the rig off the desk - it was originally for gaming and have replaced it with a lil lenovo thinclient as my daily driver. Lastly its not this clean anymore...๐Ÿ˜†

    @plusone-nick Triple monitors is good and bad. Good because I have so much screen real-estate and bad because anytime I have to work on a laptop away from home I it just sucks.

    Definitely liking that standing desk you have there ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    Very useful for extended time at the computer.

    @atrilahiji That's a nice setup - Is that Wallpaper Engine or just a static wallpaper?

    @murgero oh thatโ€™s just a static wallpaper from MIBHDs collection. Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s from someone else but this is where I found it https://mobile.twitter.com/MKBHD/status/200002096706240512

    You two have set two high a bar for the rest of us :)! My desk is a dumping ground for my son's stuff, I tried to clean it up a bit for my photo but usually it's not even this clean ๐Ÿ™‚

    But the most important things for me are:

    • I moved my desk to be near the balcony. I love looking outside frequently. There's this tree outside with a lot of squirrels. They are all hyper active like hammy in Over the hedge.
    • I moved it also near the heater hee hee. We don't have central heating, so nice to keep the feet warm!
    • I took a step backward and switched from Wayland to X. My dual monitor setup is now more stable. Also upgraded Ubuntu 20 a month or so ago.
    • That machine behind the laptop is my main Cloudron. I really appreciate how noiseless it is (thinkcenter).
    • The same cannot be said about the black tower below. It is a source of noise, a power hog and extra house heating ๐Ÿ˜• It wasn't a problem before the pandemic but these days it's on all the time.. Atleast, I don't work on C++ stuff anymore! No more long compiles.. While it compiles super fast, it's also very power hungry and the fan is noisy. Which reminds me that I probably need to clean the fan, it's become more prone to dust clog after I moved near the balcony.
    • Ultimately, I cannot wait to get back to my co-working space! Sadly, they shutdown because of the pandemic, so I have to find a new one when things get back to normal.

    @girish Talking of fanless - I wonder how long before the AppleTV gets the M1 chip and could be a Raspberry Pii alternative ๐Ÿ˜‹

    We're not here for a long time - but we are here for a good time :)

    @girish Nice! Thats still a really clean setup. Simple and to the point ๐Ÿ™‚

    And the balcony view is definitely a nice bonus. I'm in the basement. Also doesn't help that its below -40C right now lol

    I don't wanna take a picture cause my desk is filthy but -

    • Single Monitor (1080p)
    • Dell Precision T7610
    • 128GB RAM
    • Dual-CPU (2x Intel Xeon E5-2670's @ 10 cores each with Hyperthreading for a total of 40 logical cores)
    • 4TB SSD in two separate RAID configurations
    • And because I'm wild and like gaming I have put an RX 580 Series Radeon card in this server cause why not!

    Yes, this is server, enterprise hardware, no it is NOT being used as such. I use it for heavy gaming and as my personal computer.

    @atrilahiji haha yeah! It used to be a server for my fathers old company. Now it's my personal computer. Gaming, VM's, programming.

    I have 3 VMs running on it right now (vpn, macOS, and a Linux VM) and it plays cod all at the same time with plenty of resource to spare LMAO
