Could I use one of these to connect 1 keyboard to 2 computers?

i imagine yes, but you'll send key strokes to both of the computers, so you're fucked out of CTRL+W and similar shortcuts

No. I think no. The USB is master-slave system and slave keyboard cannot have two masters, this would mix up packets and system for both. One master can have two keyboards though.

KVM switch

Nope. You need a k/m switch.

no, those y-cables are only wired for additional power
one of the male connectors is power-only
the idea is that you plug a high-power device into the female connector, and you can draw additional power by having two power connectors

Yes

Use synergy

Would be pretty useful to transfer huge amount of data.

How fast does a keyboard even transfer files? Why didn't anybody think of this before?

USB can't do that (Type C might iirc), FireWire could but it's deprecated

Dude what the hell

Well, there could probably be a combination keyboard/zip disquette that connects to one computer at a time and also stores files.

No.

No, just RDP if you want a quick fix

Sure but you can only plug in one of the male ends at a time, otherwise you'll send the same input to both computers. I could only see this being useful for more efficient shitposting. The reverse with two female ports would be good to connect a mouse and keyboard to a single port (think Raspberry Pi).

I did this because I'm too lazy to unplug my 360 controller and hook it up to my PC
