Gonna need a keyboard and a monitor splitter box... but I don't want to get tariff gouged even though I'm not in the USA.

Are there any good price tracker apps for things like Newegg and Amazon?

I've been using https://www.hotstock.io to try and grab a 5090, but I'm not sure how many products you can do it with. It might just be popular stuff, I've never looked deeper into it.

Oh, yeah it's for limited stuff, I don't think you could use it effectively to find the cheapest prices anywhere.

Looks like that's more for seeing if something is in stock.
I know of camelcamelcamel but it isn't always fully accurate.

Things are actually going for pretty cheap on the 1 year plot.

Decided I'd get one of these

hm... I probably should also get a USB splitting switch for my keyboard too....

Looks promising

I didn't think about it, but actually I could just use blutooth but I think I ripped that out of my laptop... I'm not sure if I did when I took off the screen or no

If you're just looking for a way to hotswap peripherals between different PCs, you could try a software alternative.

Maybe if I were on Arch but my setup is Win10, Mint, Mac.

My Win does work dev for Tauri applications
Linux for server and some frontend that hasn't yet been moved to Win
Mac for iOS and Android dev + portable work station.
My desk doesn't have the space for my laptop even though the stand is handy.

Open the link. Just because it's on the ArchWiki doesn't mean its Arch specific...

My problem would be that by the time I figured all that out, I would have already gotten a shipment from amazon for a splitter at about 50$(all parts included). If I value my time at above minimum wage it's not cutting it.

Also look at my "keyboard" which is running linux. It's a laptop with the screen removed. And the other keyboard is also a mac laptop. I can't do anything creative with laptop keyboards.

I could maybe set up a screen share server, but I still need a keyboard anyways, so all I'm saving is the splitters which are really easy to understand other than poorly documented arch software...

>poorly documented arch software
Why would you say that if you haven't even tried it?
And again, it's not "arch software", whatever that means. That wiki article links to three different FOSS alternatives, and one paid alternative.
It's fine if you don't want to use a software alternative, but don't unjustly say it's poorly documented. Gives a bad look to FOSS.

Why are you assuming it will work on Mac? Have you even tried it.
Do you just want me to guinea pig myself for your entertainment ; struggling to read docs for programs where no one other than the creator or maintainers intended for them to use? That's the story of like every FOSS project. No desire to let other people use it without going on a pilgrimage up a mountain.
I don't need to go up the mountain every time to know what trials it means.

I completely forgot about mouses... Now i need another switcher or another mouse

 No.3686

Bought another mouse and a splitter. Things are quite cheap on my amazon right now... I think they're due to start going up once inventory is out
