do we have 27" 5k monitor with KVM and high refresh rate?

I've been using DELL AW3418DW since 2017 and it's dying soon (almost 10 years old), so it's time to find a new monitor for my setup. My budget is $1,500 max.

I recently bought a 16" MacBook Pro M5, and I also have a desktop with an RTX 3080 graphics card. I am wondering if there is a 27" monitor with a 5K resolution, a high refresh rate, and a built-in KVM switch?

I have searched around, but I can only find the following types of options:

  1. 27" with 5K and a KVM switch, but the refresh rate is only 60/70Hz (e.g., BenQ MA270S or Asus ProArt PA27JCV).
  2. LG GM9 27" with 5K and a 160Hz refresh rate, but I'd need to buy an external USB switch to share my USB keyboard, mouse, and speakers.

Am I overlooking any other options or brands?

health insurance for VAWA applicant in 2027

Hi,

I am wondering if we have options to get different health insurance in 2027? most people ( non green card holders and non-citizens )will loose federal insurance subsidies, so we will face high premium health insurance cost unless we have a job will offer health insurance coverage. most of my jobs are paid 1099, so there is no health insurance coverage from employers. In addition, my EAD is expired, and I could not work. I submitted EAD renew like 6 months before expiration date, and I don't get any update on it.

Can we still Domestic travel via air ?

I am just reading the recent ICE news on arresting Chantal Morales Rojas at Denver airport and it triggers my never a lot.

For all of us with pending VAWA or approved VAWA with pending 485, are we still safe to take airplane? All of us have over stay due to the VAWA process time.

Like Chantal Morales Rojas, she has no deportation order, and she has EAD and SSN like all of us( with overstay). The only difference is she has pending asylum case and we have pending VAWA, or approved VAWA with pending 485.

With this similar information, does it mean we could be detained by ICE at airport as well? Even we show them our pending VAWA and 485 application?

Just picked up my first MacBook Pro from BestBuy

I’d been holding out for a sale on Costco and B&H, but when prices started ticking up yesterday, I panicked a bit. After spending a few hours hunting online, I managed to find a “solid” deal: a MacBook Pro 16” (48GB RAM / 1TB SSD) from Best Buy, price matched to Microcenter for $2,634.99. This is my first MacBook tbh, but I do have iPad Pro 1T 13”but it can’t run fusion 360 and slicer.

CapitalOne Can not verify my phone number

Hi,
I just signed up a capital one credit card and tried to setup my vitrual card. during the setup process it needed to verify my identification with text message. However, after I input my phone number (wrap since 2023), the system said it could not verify my phone number because it did not match my name or whatever reason.

I am the main account holder, and i am wondering if this is USMobile issue? or capitalOne issue? ( I never got this issue with my Chase, BOA and other banks)
