Visual disks, flip cubes, rotary magnetic pucks, keypad timers and gym interval clocks. What each type is for, the models worth buying, and where to get them in Germany.

A flip-to-start desk timer with a colour LED ring, auto 25/5 Pomodoro cycles, stopwatch and clock. Around 60 EUR in Germany.

3M window films that cut screen glare and solar heat while keeping a room bright, the fix for a sun-blasted home-office desk.

A USB-C ground-loop breaker and power-noise eliminator for computer audio, with clean-power injection, from iFi's SilentPower line.

Choosing an always-on studio camera for a green-screen Teams and recording setup: why the BMPCC falls short, the Sony a6700 I already own, and the Lumix S5 II as the ideal upgrade.

Dell's 52-inch 6K curved ultrawide Thunderbolt hub monitor, pitched as a single screen that replaces a dual-monitor desk.

MoErgo's flat, low-profile travel split: columnar-staggered Choc keys, wireless ZMK, dual trackpads, no keywell. The portable counterpart to the Glove80.

Reference note on Elgato Key Lights plus a fix for setup hanging at "Gathering information... Preparing...".
