    KVM Switches

    I figured this deserved its own thread because of the increased amount of people working from home. Work gave me a laptop and told me to WFH. I'm using my peripherals because they're better and I don't have the desk space nor motivation to deal with two discrete sets monitors, keyboards, and...

    Budgeting software

    Apologies if there's a thread for this already. I kinda expected there to be but I did not find one. I currently use mint.com for budgeting. Its algorithm for presorting transactions is a bit retarded. But it's free, so can't really complain. I'm looking for something that can presort...

    NAS

    Part of me thinks we have a thread for NAS but I couldn't find one. Please delete/merge if we do. My storage HDD on my desktop died last week, so it got me considering buying a NAS. Nothing that important was lost, but it got me thinking that if the external HDD I use for backup ever...

    Space Heater

    Never owned one before, any recommendations? Also, any idea what kind of kWh's a typical one might suck down? Only looking to heat a decent sized room for a couple hours, nothing long term.

    Chest freezers?

    Any recommendations on models/configurations/brands? Also, placement? I live in Northeast, so part of me thinks it's better to put it in the detached garage. But know a fridge puts off a fair amount of heat, so perhaps there's no real benefit to that. Also trying to figure out if this is...

    So, you got some extra money laying around

    Not a whole lot. But we've got more than enough in savings to put a substantial down payment on a new car and still have 6+ months of income saved. Plus, there's some wiggle room in the monthly budget. It's enough that we should really do something with it instead of just letting it sit...

    Gloves for computer use?

    Winter is coming and even indoors, that means my hands get really cold(mouse hand especially). I'm not sure why even just a few degrees shift in ambient temperature makes a difference, but it does. I was wondering if anyone could recommend some solutions for this. I figured that would mean...

    Bluetooth speakers

    Anyone have recommendations for a good set of bluetooth speakers? You know, the ones you can link to your smartphone and play music? Phone neutral is preferred. As in, it doesn't have to have a docking station tailored for a certain phone. Integrated wireless charging mat is a bonus, but not...

    Universal remote?

    Anyone have recommendations for a good universal remote? Specifically, I'm looking to control a Vizio that's ~3 years old and a Boxee Box. Yes, that's a weird combination so I'm fully aware that this type of product doesn't exist. The boxee remote has been wigging out for a while, half the...

    Defense Grid 2

    Mostly just a heads up that Defense Grid DLC from the kickstarter was released, apparently to little fanfare, and is currently on sale: http://store.steampowered.com/app/18500/ Anyone know when the sequel is going to be released?

    Heroes VI

    Sorry to create a thread just to ask a few questions, but this is getting to be a really annoying problem. I'm betting this was answered in the old forums, but oh well! How do you get fixed tooltips in the adventure map? As in, the functionality you get on the combat map. Also, is the DLC...
