Ғылым және технология
3 years after my first setup video, I updated my desk once again for 2023. And this isn't even it's final form. Which one is your favorite?

Bro has exactly what I was planning on getting. I never saw this video before and months now I’ve been thinking how I was to make my desk and all. All the way from the round big mirror in the side and wooden feeling here and there, this was inspirational that, yes it is possible and it’s not a bad idea. Thank you for making ittt. Helped get a better idea on how others might want their space.
I love the ocd clean setup. Great job man looks like a nice relaxing space. When there is a place for everything down to a wrist watch spot that's when u know u can let all ur anxieties go. Beautiful
I believe you knocked it out of the park this time. Thank you for sharing. That webcam is a game-changer. Wow. this Mevo really next podcasting to another level. Congrats to the work that you put in.
Incredibly clean, relaxing setup, thought out in detail. Congratulations on the work done. 🇵🇹

Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I'd highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a game-changer for maintaining a clean desk setup. With its powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, it can effectively remove dust and debris, even from tight spaces. Plus, it's portable and versatile, making it great for travel and outdoor activities. Definitely worth considering! 👍
You already know how much you've impacted my home setup journey thus far and... it seems like you're not done yet 🤣! But in all seriousness, the way you setup your office and the way you explain WHY, it helped me a ton!! Thanks again Michael and I can't wait to chat with you in a near future!!

Nice setup! The ergonofis desk is definitely top tier for those who want a more refined solid wood option with the latest tech. I don't really see myself ever upgrading my sit/stand desk unless I decide to swap the top to a lighter wood tone. I just wish at this price point, they offered more unconventional options for desk depth... expanding upon a conventional 30" depth to something like a 32"-34" would be ideal for me.

Love the new tech, but I think the 2021 tour still has my heart
Maybe for next year, try mounting a power bar, you probably need an 8-10 outlet to the underside or back of your desk, so you just have 1 black cable running. It'll need a lot of cable management to tuck all power cords and power bricks but looks clean. Works pretty great cause you only need to worry about 1 cable when standing your desk. Then make sure your outlet as well as your phone jack there is black or dark, maybe even just a clean plate and tuck phone jack into the wall if not using ever. Consider a more modern flat wall trim molding. Thanks for the video, love the aesthetic

Your camera and video editing skills are the real star here. Pretty sure you will change this setup, the window glare is a constant distraction and opening the windows drowns out the monitor. Your cable management is not bad at all. You do need a battery backup though. Thanks for letting us look into your office.
Hello, Congratulations Cool 👍👏👏👏
I love this setup! I've been considering adding a floor lamp to the corner of my desk as well as changing out the wheels on my autonomous ergo chair pro (I'm in an apartment with carpet so I purchased a plastic mat for the chair to roll around on but now it has huge divots in it which hinder me from rolling around ). Do you have links to the lamp and the chair casters that you purchased?

Sadly the lamp is no longer available on Amazon but I’ll update the link in the description for the wheels of the chair.

Hey man what's your paint color? Yours look really good, and I'm painting my walls black soon and still deciding on a deeper black or more dark gray
great setup and aesthetic! what is the wall paint color???
I came here just for the Senna’s print on the wall…stayed for the good content! 🇧🇷🏎️❤️
That floating phone looks super cool! Live plants are 1,000,000 times better than plastic plants. Find easy low maintenance plants.
Beautiful setup, but a Josh Gates Monster Hunter book, that is awesome.
This looks like an amazing standing desk. I checked their website and they are also from where I live (Quebec). I would love so much to encourage our local businesses. I need to buy a new desk and this time I want to try a standing desk because I'm falling asleep after lunch and since I can't afford to lose focus while doing financial transactions, I'm trying to find new creative ways to stay awaken when I'm digesting my lunch. lol Unfortunately the desk is not within my budget and the sizing doesn't fit exactly what I'm looking for. I mean, for the depth, my 49 inch ultrawide monitor is not curved enough to sit too close and I would like also more width to fit my two 27 inch screens with my work laptop and still have space on my right to open my laptop screen during team meetings. I also have a MacBook Pro for personal usage that I'd like to put on the left with a KVM switch for after work. So yeah, more unconventional sizing options would be good... and the pricing is too high (not surprising for a product built from Quebec considering the astronomical production costs for everything here... but buying from Canada is also a formidable quality insurance for any product).
What is the MagSafe accessory you used in the beginning?

Great video and great design choices. My only head scratcher is why the mirror awkwardly placed in the corner? Is it to reflect lighting for videos or to make the room seem larger in videos? Otherwise, that would be my only change.

I know that the MagSafe stand is designed to work with their setup cockpit because it comes with a bolt that you screw into the available threaded sockets under the riser, but is there any reason why I couldn’t just buy a wood screw and drill it into the riser that I already own? I love the design of that but don’t have the need or want to buy their whole ecosystem since I have another solution
Great vid ... if you really love the desk you could just get replacement motors for it.

I couldnt help but notice that you have only 1 wire connected to your laptop, how did you get the macbook to stay on when closed? The only way I got it to work is if I had the hdmi cable and charger connected at the same time. If I removed the charger, then the monitor will disconnect and it basically turns off which kind of sucks because I don't like charging it when its almost full but I would have to if I wanted to use the monitor, unless ofc I just kept it open.
Nice set up! I've noticed from your videos that you position your screen a little higher, I wonder if it does feel uncomfortable when you're using the computer?
I may have missed it elsewhere but what paint did you use for the office?
