I have triple 24” monitors on arms, with two Thunderbolt docks and wireless keyboard and mouse. BAH laptop and client laptops are connected to the Thunderbolt docks with lids closed and then stacked on top of one another in a corner. The left monitor is always client, right monitor is always BAH and then I switch the center back and forth depending on what I’m working on.

I prefer a single curved ultrawide with a Thunderbolt dock for the laptop to get fed into peripherals

like

Curved 34" 1440p 144hz monitor
27" 1080p 144hz monitor in portrait mode.
HP dock connected to USB switch for all peripherals, one cord from dock to laptop.
Dynamic mic + mounted speakers + DAC/amp/mixer to switch audio inputs/outputs.

With two button clicks I can go from mindless Teams meetings to gaming on the PC I built. I ain't going back to traveling

Hi fishes,what is the current situation for WFO in nokia...is it 2 days or have increased.

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
