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

    @murgero oh that’s just a static wallpaper from MIBHDs collection. I’m sure it’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 🙂

          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 😕 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 😋

              @girish Nice! Thats still a really clean setup. Simple and to the point 🙂

              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

                                  Very different setups everyone. Mine is rather simplistic in this regard I guess, don't even have a desktop PC, only the Cloudron server attached to the router and laptop and no fancy office chair. Well that is homeoffice, I have a good one in the office.

                                      @girish it would be open, but generally everyone possible should work from home, so I don't want to make an exception for myself since I can work from home.

                                        @nebulon simple but clean and distraction free. I do like the idea of using a laptop. You’ve got the same environment at home and when you’re out.

                                          Might have to delete this one later then 😂

                                          At first with the standing desk it was hard work for more than an hour.

                                          Now I stand all day and most of the evening and it feels weird sitting to work. Much better for the brain work too as a your lung capacity is higher when standing for oxygen needs.

                                          It's 2m wide by 1m deep - I already think I need another one for all the stuff to play with and make it a proper home-studio for music, video etc.
