    Just a tip for the cables, get an Ikea Signum cable rack and mount it underneath the table. Buy a large power brick and put it inside that and connect everything to it. Then you only have a single cable running from your desk to the power outlet.

    For cable managing a standing desk, consider mounting a long extension cord under the desk and plugging in your desk accessories to that. That way there's only one cable going down to the ground, and the rest can be neatly shoved into a "cable rack" under the desk (I believe ikea sells some for cheap).

    • @Scrappy-Youtube

    Ali! You probably won’t see this, but in the case that you do, on Zoom calls you can toggle between mute and unmute by hitting Command+Shift+A, and that with Command+Tab and Command+Shift+Tab between apps (notes and zoom) may help you stay inconspicuous while you’re note-taking on Zoom calls. Anyways, love your videos!

    If I was your mom/mum coz I could be since I'm 16 years older, I just look very young. I would be a very proud mom. You are now a grown man and now responsible and learned to decide for himself. And mom here is a minimalist. Mom here agree greatly to quality products that last longer than cheaper things that breaks easily. That make less garbage and reduces carbon footprint. My fave amongs your set up is the desk, chair and the molested😁plant. A good posture while working is a must that way you are more comfortable hence more productive. Your plant serves as airfilter and give you a better oxygen at the same time. The bamboo are sustainable material and in general a better material compared to synthetic wood. Now my comment is too long... But yeah I say well done son👍

    I too have the MX Master 3 mouse (MATE. That thing is FANTASTIC), but for smooth scrolling you can simply hit the little button behind the scroll wheel to disable its magnetic clutch, giving you all the silky smoothness you could ever want. Personally, I prefer the clicky feedback provided by leaving the clutch setting alone, but each to their own... 🙂💪🏽
    ALSO: I have its keyboard counterpart, the *MX Keys*, which has a lovely backlit keyboard, multiple settings for *APP-SPECIFIC* keyboard shortcuts within its own Logitech Options app (which also provides customisable app-specific shortcuts for the extra buttons on the *MX Master 3*), and most of all-no obnoxious clicky-clacky keys.

    Hey there! I've recently come across the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule and I must say, it's a game-changer for keeping my desk setup clean. The powerful vacuuming and blowing functions, along with the multiple tubes and high-quality filters, make it super efficient. Plus, the compact size and long-lasting battery are perfect for on-the-go use. Definitely recommend checking it out!

      I think these kind of videos with people showing off super expensive setup that 90% of us can't buy, are aggressive. It make us feel that our life is miserable compared to all these "influencers" that get loads of gears for free and, on top of that, get paid to test it. Well done, enjoy your $800 your mom didn't want you to buy!

      Let's get the facts straight. Ali is a doctor with a honest job and a good payment. Also he has another job (!) as a TH-camr. For being a doctor you need your work devices aslike for a job as a TH-camr. His setup literally is his work related devices he needs to produce content. I don't think this is showoff at all and in no way aggressive.

      The ironic thing is, 20 years into a tech career, I can easily afford his setup but my gadget obsession is long passed and all the trinkets and trash these tech “reviewers” push just seem aimed primarily at separating young aspirationals from their cash. With all the sponsored crap they’re just informercials. I wouldn’t waste energy feeling jealous of the things you can’t yet afford. Once you get them you realise it’s meaningless.
