  • I use one of these to control 2 PCs and one laptop with a single keyboard and mouse. It could actually run a 4th machine off the same keyboard and mouse if I wanted to cram another into my workspace.

    Sharing two 4k monitors between the three as well, though the screens have nothing to do with the switch controlling keyboard and mouse.

    Used some double sided tape to attach the little controller switch to the top of the docking station connecting my laptop to the displays and network as it’s a light little thing that would fly all over the place otherwise. Been using the same one for over 2 years now and it’s been working great!

    Tried some more expensive solutions in an attempt to tie my monitors and network together along with the kbm and everything I tried had some kind of unacceptable compromise, like bad video quality.





  • As someone who is seemingly constantly working on computers and has done a ton of engine building and other deep car stuff, in addition to the garage mentioned previously, I’d recommend buying a buildable engine core for your subaru, getting that built (either do it yourself - recommended, or by a machine shop - will probably work well, but will cost a lot of $$) and having it ready to install rather than trying to pull the existing engine out and rebuilding it - especially if the current engine still runs.

    Unless your plan is to make a hobby of having exploded cars in the yard, this’ll go a long way towards putting an end in sight for an engine rebuilding venture.

    Also fuck all car subscriptions - that’s some gross profiteering right there…
