REVIEW – I work from home. On my desk I have two computers, one that’s personal and one that’s for work. To keep my desk as clutter-free as possible, these computers share a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse. I have a plan to reduce clutter even further by removing the switch selector that connects

REVIEW – One benefit of being forced to spend more time around the house during the pandemic is that now I’m able to jump back into some hobbies I’ve been neglecting. 3D printing is a hobby I really enjoy, but it can be costly and, before the pandemic, I never seemed to have enough time
