WebMention Post to Chris Aldrich
This is a fancy test post. In reply to to his post at https://boffosocko.com/2020/03/26/55769669/
This week finally answered a question I’ve asked myself for years. Could I work from home with my existing Linux hardware and contribute with a team of Mac and Windows users? Well, the answer was yes.
My Desk
Clockwise left to right my desk is ready for calm productivity
- Three stacked trays hold an assortment of paper and pocket notebooks. No apps! I take notes the old fashioned way.
- An ASUS 27″ 1080p monitor, large enough that I can set back several feet and comfortably type or read.
- An HD Webcam from ThinkPenguin for Zoom calls
- Assorted items: Phone (mostly ignored spam calls), a router, Tweek FunCo Pop! and a Cylon Raider, the Tardis, a custom mug for my pencils and a Frixion pen.
- $20 Creative speakers
- Rocketbook Fusion reusable notebook.
Software & Hardware
Although I’m using Lubuntu 19.10 for my Work desktop I also have stock Ubuntu for my Personal desktop.
Work / Life Balance
A frequent suggestion I kept seeing while researching working from home was to create “hard lines” between work & personal time. Bloggers love to talk about how they set up a home office they never enter after work hours. Well, that just isn’t practical. My wife is also working from home during this crisis, space is limited.
To that end not all hard lines have to be physical, So I installed Lubuntu 19.10 on a spare 14 year old 5600 rpm hard drive just collecting dust in my desktop… and yes, I back it up daily.
Using an Ubuntu variant I still benefit from the same workflow just in a different look and feel. If I want to access work or personal documents I have to reboot into a completely installation along with a different look and feel. This creates just enough of an inconvenience to keep me focused on one while avoiding the other.
