I work from home - with a 5 minute screensaver with complicated password required by corporate - USB MouseJiggler - https://www.amazon.com/Undetectable-Computer-Simulate-Moveme... Best - Purchase - Ever - !
I was worried that would be detectable so I programmed the onboard memory of my Logitech mouse to jiggle itself.

If you pick the longer desks that have well designed shelves, or even some of the L-shaped stuff, you can tuck away laptops/desktops in such a way that your main surface work area is huge blank canvas. The space and lack of clutter is almost…

I use them almost daily for running, cycling, walking and climbing. My only gripe with them is the long neck bad, so I've had to stop myself from splurging on a Mini when it came out. :D
