man I got my dual monitor MacBook goin' here, two mice, two keyboards, my weird camera HDMI->USB thing, a USB mic, all workin' great, I'm a Apple dude now.

At some point I need to unhook the laptop from all the cords and make sure nothing goes insane.

good luck trying to get Elden Ring to run on that

Hey emfive, this is Alec. I am glad you like the mummy eating the bowl of shitty pasta with a can of 'parm.' I made that image for you way back when. I’m glad you enjoy it.

You don't need to do this fyi. Universal Control means you can use one mouse + one keyboard to control any number of Apple devices as long as they're all on the same iCloud account.

exactly one of my devices is an Apple device, that being the laptop itself. The mice, the keyboards, the video thing, and literally everything else is cheap poo poo from Amazon.

I need 2 keyboards because I have an L-shaped work environment because of my video conference setup. Desk in front, for most work, desk to the left for Zoom etc.

Elden Ring doesn't really stress GPUs, which is where Apple devices lack. It's hugely CPU bound

Hi Mr Hans, godspeed

I don't want to play Elden Ring but I am very joyous that so many of you seem to be getting tremendous amounts of pleasure from it.

Logitech mice, weird Chinese LED-strewn keyboards, why wouldn't you buy that

The camera hookup is kind-of inevitable, laptops don't have HDMI inputs. I use a Fuji XE3 for my webcam, so that other people feel inferior in our group meetings because my camera is so awesome.

does the keyboard chassis contribute to typing noise

I have a plastic board with cherry reds and it's loud enough that it constantly trips my webcam mic in Google Hangouts

obviously I can't afford to buy some fancy metal keyboard chassis without my first needing to survive the salacious av attacks and then buying Elden Ring for PS4 but a better keyboard is pretty high on the Filthy Hans Hierarchy of Needs Pyramid

python is fine to learn if you just need a way to parse data from a file or pull data from an API. it's a fine language for normal people to pick up

stfu about your boring edge case job requirements that require strong typing or whatever. if someone wanted to eat poo poo
for a living they'd learn database query routines or whatever
