You don't have to do anything with kits like these. They're usually self-adhesive so you stick them to whatever and away you go. I've got a 2m lightstrip in my kitchen (and some others) and I ran it along the edge of my cupboards by peeling off the tape and pressing it into place. Low-effort, high-reward - give it a go?
The external GPU in the top right. While it doesn’t provide all the extensibility of a Thunderbolt 3 Dock, it does allow me to upgrade the GPU over time and boost GPU acceleration in apps I depend on like VSCode. Both monitors are connected to the eGPU, then 1 Thunderbolt 3 cable goes to the MBP, which charges the MBP as well. At first there were issues with disconnecting the eGPU in Mohave but those issues have since been corrected by Apple.

Work
Volunteer Sysadmin at ELLAK of Cyprus - open for opportunities.
I'm a fan, especially for the price. Not as awesome as the $900 chairs we have back at the office but about a million times better than the old staples one I had.

Taking a different approach to the multi monitor setup. This is the corner of a room we use for musical instruments, toy storage, reading, and backyard bird-watching. My actual desk is downstairs in the family room.

I haven't tidied this or posed anything for the photo so it's not exactly neat.
It's a cordoned-off section of about a quarter to a third of my living room, with the only window at the opposite end.

Well it's a reasonable size for most things. I could fit 2x24" monitors on there (I have 1x24" and 1x22" though). Really there's plenty of room for everything I need, and I don't use the laptop for much. I use barriers to drive it with my keyboard and mouse when I do need to do anything but it just sits there being a server most of the time.

Rocking this setup during self quarantine!
Feelin blue and red this morning!
Looks like sci-fi 🔥

Epic!
This is how Drakes desk would look if he was a programmer!
I love the dedicated Spotify monitor.
I ❤️ indie rock so always got the tunes going! There is a Sonos in the room too for when I want to dance with myself.
Woah are those backlight LEDs?
Yeah it’s just a cheap LED strip I purchased on Amazon I can control with a remote.
I forget that other humans put more effort into arranging their workspace. I can't do anything with physical electronics or woodwork :frown:

Nice setup. How do you get this working when your laptop has just one HDMI port?

That's alot to absorb... Thanks!
I'm on a Windows Lenovo laptop with just one HDMI port ... I will need to find a simpler solution.
Live the rubber ducks 😄
😂 they even have little capes so I know which one to talk when I'm debugging
That's gotta be the best thing I've ever seen.
they're from devrant if i'm right
Correct!
Yep I found them! 😂
Awesome 😂
Is that an ergohuman chair? I have one since 2016 and is awesome!
It's an Autonomous ErgoChair 2 🤷🏻

The chair is old and a little bit worn :P
Soft 👌🏽
Wow! Neat and cozy. Very Nice!
This looks really pleasant
Feels creative.
Had no issues going into self-quarantine:P

Pink theme 💓
Huge fan of pink theme.
I've never loved a pink theme the way I love this one.
Just got a new desk yesterday! Here is my setup!
Slowly trying to add better gear to my setup - I really want to switch to a more pastel color palette!
So many screens 😯
Love the white board too ! That's a good idea

Look nice but desk too little small? :p
