Today, I am finally getting around to a long-overdue project.
Iβm fortunate that my job provides a pretty sweet #wfhlife setup with a #macbookpro and dual monitors.
But then, I already had a dual monitor setup in the studio. Iβve been trying all sorts of ways, for months, to make things work between my work and home computers, to just have one set of monitors and keyboard.
In case anyone is curious, KVMβs and Macβs just do not play well together. Iβve tried multiple brands. HDMI, DisplayPort, DisplayLink, Thunderbolt hubs, direct connectβ¦you name it, and Iβve had issues with it. I donβt know enough about #embeddedsoftware to dive in and troubleshoot why this is happening, but itβs frustrating.
Either way, Iβm caving in and doing a big workspace overhaul. By the end of today itβll be discrete sets of monitors for each computer. The cable management will be the most tedious part, but what else am I gonna do on a chilly, overcast Sunday?
