Not the Pinterest-perfect cable-managed dream setup. The actual one you sit at right now.
Mine:
The "setup" posts you see online are marketing. Real productive spaces are functional and slightly chaotic.
What is actually on your desk?
Mine:
- 27" 1440p IPS monitor from 2021, still going strong. One dead pixel I have chosen to emotionally ignore.
- Mechanical keyboard (Tofu65) pushed to the back of the desk because I apparently use a laptop stand more than I thought I would.
- Two USB hubs because I have run out of ports approximately four times.
- A pile of cables I keep meaning to manage properly.
- One monitor arm that makes a faint click every 90 minutes like a haunted house.
- An empty coffee cup that has been there since Tuesday.
