Right now my main windows desktop is two monitors, but I can't use them for work with the exception of slack. My work laptop is a macbook pro. To get me through this week I connected one of my monitors to the macbook but I don't have a second USB mouse/keyboard. Is there some way I can A/B my mouse/keyboard/monitors to the laptop when it's plugged in without having to constantly move HDMI cables/usb receivers? I remember there being a utility that would let you use your monitor/keyboard between two machines but the macbook is locked down. I'm guessing I have to get a KVM but if someone has a recommended one for windows/mac that be great Sepist fucked around with this message at 14:45 on Jul 31, 2019 |

Sounds like you just need a two-port KVM switch, unless I am misunderstanding your setup.

Yeah. Something like this hooked up to a docking station would allow to to just toggle between your computers.

From personal experience, I'd recommend having a separate keyboard/mouse over a KVM switch. It's too easy to lose which computer's getting input when it's your "normal" setup. I use InputDirector on my personal stuff, and it works great, but it doesn't look like it's got a Mac client. Microsoft made "Mouse Without Borders" (http://aka.ms/mm) but I've never actually tried it. I used Synergy for years, but stopped when it looked like it was dead for ages, too. I think the newest Logitech MX Master 2 mice have some input-sharing settings, too?

You can alt-tab between them, and they will appear separately in your task bar.

Unfortunately with the way the work machine is set up, I cant rdp between them. I have a spare 24 inch monitor so I'm just gonna set up a 3rd monitor dedicated to the macbook and buy that multi-device keyboard and mouse. I was gonna go the KVM route but macbooks and external monitors seems like a losing fight.

One of our ATT toll-free numbers isn't working right now, for a location we do not have current billing paperwork or account info for. I have spent 3.5 hours so far today navigating phone menus, being hung up on, transferred to hundreds of departments. I just can't get a motherfucking tech on the phone to tell me if there's a network issue going on or what. I wonder how long I've been dead and in hell.

The logitech solution was almost great. Unfortunately the company laptop blocks the logitech communication on the OS firewall so I can only flow the mouse/keyboard one direction. Still better than what I had though!

A co-worker of mine used to work at a hospital, and the amount of red tape he had to deal with to do anything was insane. 4 to 6 weeks, and multiple meetings to do something as basic as move a switchport from one VLAN to another. A doctor wanted to move the printer from one side of his office to another was a month long ordeal.

They don't see the forest through the trees because they've been the smartest people they know for their entire lives and can't or won't comprehend that their knowledge is limited to a subset of human knowledge. The Bad With Money thread has talked about this numerous times. Physicians are easy marks for scammers because of this. In my experience other high end, highly educated professions also have this issue but it definitely seems to be the worst with physicians.

In my admittedly limited experience: avoid working for the professions (broadly defined) because generally they’ll be run by a professional (managing partner or whatever) who’ll never let the lowest paid professional (25 year old just out of Law or Architecture School) make less than the best paid support person (“support” meaning everything from the Kelly Girl secretary to the CCNP-with-20-years-experience network engineer). And they ain’t exactly all about ladling money to the new lawyers, either...

I think this covers it. They are very highly educated and probably pretty good at something that is very hard to be good at, so they just assume that means that they can intuitively understand all other "lesser" disciplines with no additional effort. anecdote, but my dad is an attorney, and is just wholly incapable of accepting that there are things he doesn't understand without a huge fight.
