That's not how it works. You can't just absolve responsibility from Linus just because he wasn't the only person directly involved in these mistakes. Yes, it's not all his *fault* but it IS all his *responsibility* as the owner of the company, the person who was hands on in nearly all examples of issues, and certainly as the person who makes the decisions about how their content is created, reviewed and how errors are handled. That's how it works. This is all on Linus at the end of the day.

I appreciate the suggestions. The KVM is definitely out of budget, I think that's pretty overkill for what I'm trying to do. I def. might be able to get away with using the built-in hdmi and a thunderbold->dp for the monitors and do manual switching - I can give that a shot as it's a pretty cheap and easy solution. Regarding the USB switching, I need a good solution for this. Are there any switches that are easy to recommend? I I'd have to go USBC from the macbook and either USB A or C from the PC to 2-4 USB A ports. My biggest concern is that I need a powered hub since I don't think a single port will supply enough for all my peripherals, and I'm also worried about latency when using with the PC. Would appreciate any suggestions.

Howdy folks, I recently started a WFH job and have been putting of making the most of my desk and PC setup which is costing me in productivity. I'm running a main desktop PC for personal use: WIndows 10, wired mouse/keyboard + 2x 27" 2k monitors. For work I have a 16" Macbook Pro M1Max 2021. I need to, as seamlessly as possible, switch my peripherals and monitors between these two machines. I know there's some good solutions to this that exist but I can't seem to find them. Here are my requirements: 1) Mac and PC need to output to both displays at 2k resolution. PC needs to maintain 2k @144 bandwidth on main gaming monitor without hurting latency 2) Mac and PC need to be able to switch between at LEAST 2 USB 3.0 peripherals (mouse+keyboard) and optimally, USB C wireless headset dongle without hurting latency The nitty gritty: 1) Both monitors support 1x HDMI and 1x DP connections 2) Mac has 3x USB thunderbolt type c connections and 1x HDMI 3) Desk real-estate is tight but two feet to the left of the desk/pc is another table I could possibly set the mac/switchers/hubs on 4) Mac needs to be able to turn on when shut (idk if this is only possible with a proper docking station or if there are other solutions) Affordances: 1) I'm fine with manually switching one or both monitor's display inputs (source input buttons) if needed 2) I'm fine with only 2 USB switches since I can use my airpods for meetings, but my webcam makes 3 total so 3-4 switchable USB ports would be optimal 3) Don't need to do anything with audio 4) Can use standard magsafe charger if solution does not also involve thunderbolt charging I would greatly appreciate any help finding a good solution for my setup. I'm sure there are articles or posts that I can't find with good solutions so if you happen to know of any please link me. I'd like to keep the solution as cheap as possible but if needed I can spend the money on a good solution. Thanks a ton guys!

Hey guys, I'm going to start off with a little story for some background of my gift. My name is Sean (Hi!). I'm a 15 year old who lives in Illinois and the it would be truly amazing if you guys would pick me. The gift is for my stepfather, Keith. Ever since I was five, when my parents divorced, my family of six (originally five) has been supported and loved by this man. We've had a lot of difficulty through the past ten years, with the decline in the economy, the death of my sister, and various struggles along the windy road of life. At first, I hated Keith. He was my worst enemy. Who was he to make me work around the house, help keep the walls up and the roof down? My brother, now off on his own adventure, made me hate him - all for nothing. I looked up to my brother because I though he was all I had. In the past few years, Keith and I have grown very close. I finally understood what an amazing person he was; How much he'd given up to keep us afloat and we owe our lives to him because of that. Times are hard and I'm young so I haven't been able to gather much of any funds for gifts to my family, but I'd absolutely love if Keith could get something he'd love and deserve. I'm not 100% sure what he'd like best. He enjoys gaming, has recently been talking about getting something that can play Netflix on our TV, he's always been a fan of good music so maybe some speakers or earbuds. I'll let you awesome people pick, as I'm sure you'd all have a better idea of what to get him. Thanks a whole ton, guys. LTT has been my favorite YouTube channel ever since I discovered it about 9 months ago. Thanks for making awesome videos that keep informed and happy, you guys really have made an awesome contribution to my free time. And last of all, Merry Christmas, Haunika, or whatever else you may celebrate and happy new year.
