How do you work from home? (if applicable)

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

[A Former User]

@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

@girish my memory is spotty - what coworking space was that again? they had one on E Santa Clara in SJ right? I recall seeing you guys on their site when I first found out about Cloudron

[girish]

@plusone-nick https://foundersfloor.com/ . The site is there but the office is closed now.

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.

@murgero Oh wow 40 logical cores O_O

[murgero]

@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

Great topic! It's always fun to peek into people's offices. haha. Here's my home office setup for the moment. Been changing it slowly over the past year. Recently got a new chair I find much more comfortable than my previous one. haha.

[marcusquinn]

@d19dotca Nice! My Dog's bed is right by my desk too

[A Former User]

@d19dotca very clean! Also that chair looks incredibly comfortable

[nebulon]

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]

@nebulon is your office open these days?

[nebulon]

@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.

[A Former User]

@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

Spot the dog

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.

[murgero]

@marcusquinn Standing desks are amazing

[d19dotca]

@murgero Yeah mine is a standing desk too and I love it. Sure I sit most of it, haha, but still stand for a few hours each day while I'm working.

[plusone-nick]

@marcusquinn i don't see anything wrong - that's more how mine looks now lol

[marcusquinn]

@plusone-nick thankfully my computer desktop is a lot neater

For interest, the big painting it a Hed Kandi album cover.

Most other things are on my kit.co list: kit.co/marcusquinn
