On: Microsoft Confirms Password Deletion for 1B Users

There are authenticator apps that will run on your computer, and apps that will let you read SMSs on your phone from you computer. You phone might need to be on for the latter, and maybe even connected to the same local network, but it does not have to be literally on your desk.

For TOTP yes, but AFAIK not for the push-based proprietary authentication systems used by Microsoft/Duo/etc.

I'll look into that. Is there one you would recommend for forwarding SMSs to computer?
