1
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,519
what from Linux to

2
00:00:10,679 --> 00:00:16,920
Windows over to the

3
00:00:13,879 --> 00:00:19,640
Mac over to Linux

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,640
again over to window

5
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:34,399
what how did he do that

6
00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:41,079
the N Mouse from Phoenix is ergonomically designed and comes with an

7
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,239
8200 DPI sensor and rron switches click

8
00:00:41,079 --> 00:00:47,920
the link in the video description to learn more this video back from March

9
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:51,960
31st of 2012 is one of the only videos that shows my personal setup it's also

10
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,680
about like how I got this job and my mineral oil computer and whatever else

11
00:00:54,239 --> 00:01:01,000
it's also kind of one of my favorite videos but as some people noticed I had

12
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:05,840
two keyboards and two mice that's kind of weird that was because I had two

13
00:01:03,199 --> 00:01:11,240
computers on two different monitors I love that I was able to control both

14
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,880
computers quickly and easily but hated

15
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:17,759
how I would constantly get confused as to which mouse or keyboard was connected

16
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:25,240
to what and usually I'm not looking down at them when I'm operating them so I don't know what I even am doing and H I

17
00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:27,520
never got used to that enter Synergy in

18
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:32,520
their own words Synergy combines your desktop devices together for one

19
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:36,920
cohesive experience it's software for sharing your mouse and keyboard between

20
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:43,479
multiple computers on your desk and it works on Windows Mac OSX Debian Ubuntu

21
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:45,439
red hat and Fedora neat it allows for

22
00:01:43,479 --> 00:01:50,000
near seamless transfer of your keyboard and mouse it also allows you to do stuff

23
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:54,280
like copy and paste items between computers or just text or whatever and

24
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:59,000
it even lets you drag and drop files from one computer to another in order to

25
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:01,039
add that whole cohesive experience thing

26
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:07,360
essentially it's a network-based non-v video KVM switch that if you upgrade to

27
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,000
the pro version is encrypted with SSL

28
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:13,360
okay so that sounds pretty awesome until I mention the pro upgrade thing right I

29
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:18,120
mean most of the software I've shown on this channel has been free stuff so far

30
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:22,560
other than that display Fusion thing I guess but hold tight for a minute it's

31
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:27,760
not really that bad considering what the program gives you it's actually pretty

32
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:31,519
cheap it's 10 bucks or 29 if you opt for Synergy Pro which gives you SSL

33
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:37,080
encryption and Priority Access to their support help desk this payment gets you

34
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:41,720
the program and all of its updates for life I opted for the $29 option as SSL

35
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:47,599
encryption sounds pretty cool and a lifetime priority support is also pretty

36
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:51,760
cool also because its program is absolutely awesome and I want it to

37
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:55,920
support the developers not only do they publicly display their link to glass

38
00:02:53,879 --> 00:03:00,720
store which shows their page of their employees reviewing their company on

39
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:06,720
everything and it's very highly rated but they also offer free beer and food

40
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:09,400
like a good startup should looking at

41
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:14,120
you lonus okay and that's fine and dandy but how well does it actually work

42
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:20,360
actually mind-bogglingly well and I'm not that surprised as their customers

43
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:23,879
range from Pixar Cisco Microsoft Amazon

44
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:26,360
Intel and Facebook to well me

45
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:30,439
installation is a very simple spam the next button style procedure where all

46
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:34,799
you really have to do is decide if the computer you're installing it on is the

47
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:39,519
server also known as the one with the keyboard and mouse that you intend to

48
00:03:36,959 --> 00:03:44,159
share or the client also known as the one without the keyboard and mouse you

49
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:48,640
intend to share or at least maybe possibly none even plugged in and that's

50
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:52,159
actually sort of it if you just kind of want things to work all you have to do

51
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:57,959
after that is decide where your computers should go on the screens and

52
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:59,879
links Synergy server configuration panel

53
00:03:57,959 --> 00:04:03,799
one thing to note here is that even if your computer has a bunch of screens

54
00:04:02,079 --> 00:04:08,599
plugged in in a weird configuration or whatever it still just kind of shows up

55
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:14,439
as one meaning even on a triple monitor wide setup if you have one monitor above

56
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:16,680
it going on any of the computers that

57
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:21,000
you have connected any of your monitors leaving vertically will go to that one

58
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:24,000
even if it's like super far to the right and there's computers above that it will

59
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:28,160
still go to the one that is configured as above your computer there are also

60
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:32,240
Advanced server settings which most of which I honestly would leave def fault

61
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:37,919
and hotkeys which are actually pretty wicked these allow you to assign key

62
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:40,280
presses to rapidly switch which computer

63
00:04:37,919 --> 00:04:43,600
is capturing your keyboard and mouse this is really helpful if you have a

64
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:47,919
massive amount of screen real estate or a bunch of computers hooked up as moving

65
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:53,240
your mouse around the vast planes of desktop Valley can take quite some time

66
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:57,639
also I recommend that you enable the Windows option to show the location of

67
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:03,199
your pointer when you press the control key once you get above like four screens

68
00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:08,440
things get a little crazy Synergy already has and will continue to make a

69
00:05:05,759 --> 00:05:12,440
galactically impactful difference into how I use computers if it does for you

70
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:17,000
as well I'd love to hear about it this video wasn't sponsored by them at all

71
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:21,240
they don't even know that I made it I'd just love to see what kind of crazy

72
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:25,840
setups you guys come up with now I apparently can't even remember to shave

73
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:29,120
let alone go to the store to buy razors so Dollar Shave Club can at least take

74
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:34,759
care of one of those problems for me by delivering RoR right to my door for a lower price than

75
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:39,120
the competitors both my wallet and my face would finally get some relief if I

76
00:05:36,759 --> 00:05:42,919
actually you know did the thing joining dollarshaveclub.com means you can afford

77
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:47,319
to shave with a fresh blade anytime you want which feels fantastic when you

78
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:50,960
actually do it and if you even want a better shave you can pair it with Dr

79
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:54,560
Carver's shave butter it's not your average shave cream it has high quality

80
00:05:52,759 --> 00:05:59,039
ingredients that make your skin feel soft and smooth and moisturized again

81
00:05:57,039 --> 00:06:03,720
when you actually do it if you want to get razors so you don't have to have

82
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:06,199
