I look forward to seeing your stuff!
If it helps ease you in gently, then Tips were added to Articles since your 2007 contributions, which are a "simpler", "shorter" article which takes a lot less to prepare (or at least for me it does!)

OK, thanks. Yes, it does tend to be a bit 'all or nothing' with me. I think, initially at least, I will follow a few relevant tags (OK, done that) and see if I can leave any pertinent comments. See you around.

And yes, I last contributed an article an awfully long time ago!

Cool, so next Tesla update will put twitter on the cars. Great.

You will only be able to repower your tesla by sending twits to the loading station.

That's a great idea. Reduce the population, increase the average intelligence and provide sustainable power, all in one!

Is that the loading platform for the phone sanitizers to get on board? 😁

If people think that allowing one person to be in control of "Free Speech" then they are not thinking clearly. The "Free Speech" he promises will only last until he thinks something posted is not to his liking. And by then it will be too late. Yeah, true free speech would be great but only when it is controlled by all and not when one person controls whether your speech is truely free!

Ha!
I have no idea if Musk will make a positive difference at Twitter but... the folks currently in control at Twitter have failed miserably at "Free Speech" so a change was needed.

Of course. He is taking the company back to private status.

I read this could mark the end of Twitter and the start of serious regulation of social media. The theory is that Musk will let Twitter descend into such a cesspool that people will leave it and things will come to the attention of Congress. Could just be wishful thinking. We'll see.

Can anyone recommend a KVM switch supports 5 computers and both mac and windows via USB3?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

That's a VGA only model though.

That's helpful. Thanks, Dan. I especially like it because it also handles audio.

Not to sound like Spok, but the HDMI switches all handle audio through the HDMI spec anyway, however a seperate additional audio port may prove beneficial -- one cannot have too many ports -- additionally, I found none that handle USB 3 at the time of my search, but also later found it was not really as necessary as I had first thought ~John

I think I might order this for myself. How's this unit working for you, Dan? Do you find it reliable? Have you encountered any issues or is there anything you don't like about it?
Thanks,

I've had no major complaints with it; but I'm also not using it to its fullest capacity. I'm not using the audio out feature, hooking the speakers connected to 1 system to it instead and changing audio to hdmi out would help with cable management a bit but's never gotten to the top of my todo list. I'm also not running it at full resolution (1680x1050); but in that case I didn't think saving a few dollars for a lower end model was worth it. The ancient screen I'm using will get retired someday.
The only annoyance I have is that I hear USB dis/connect tones from the PC with the speakers attached when I switch. That might go away if I was using the audio support, but I've never gotten around to trying.

Thanks again.

The product details indicate it supports a resolution up to 4096 x 2160 @ 60Hz. I intend to use it with an ultra-wide (3440 x 1440) panel. Perhaps your model is an older variant that max'd out at 1680 x 1050?

Something like that.
2560x1600, but DL-DVI only. Theoretically over HDMI I should be able to do 1920x1200; but Windows is fanatically determined to prevent me from selecting that resolution and forces me to jump through the same set of hoops to force it after each reboot. The KVM's for secondary systems only so I just gave up.

That says USB 2.0. Is there a USB 3.0 version? Also, I need dual monitor support.
