I’m a reverse Lawful Neutral; laptop on the left, monitor on the right.
Before that I had a 16:9 monitor on the left and a 4:3 monitor on the right. That doesn’t seem to be in the chart anywhere.
Seriously, someone needs to start making high-quality 4:3 monitors again. Sure, they’re not great for movies and modern video games, but they’re great for reading.
True neutral right now, but since I’m already here, does anyone know if curved monitor is viable as a secondary display? I already have the monitor around, but since it’s not rotatable I can’t really try this setup for myself.
It’d be 27’ 1440p flat horizontally (main) and 24’ 1080p curved vertically next to it.
I was Lawful Neutral, but gave my monitors to my wife in exchange for a better single monitor. Nothing special, just a 27" Samsung w/ a high refresh rate and richer blacks that I found difficult to achieve with my old monitors. I found that I rarely (if ever) used both of them. Only while looking up information in MMOs like Classic WoW, but I play those so seldom these days that I’m getting a lot out of a single.
Ummmm… how about 2 vertical monitors above each other?
That’s how I got this long ass screenshot, for example: https://i.imgur.com/2AOYktQ.png
I don’t know how else to do that, so I fixed it with hardware ʘ‿ʘ
You can tell xrandr anything, it doesn’t have to be physically connected. So you could get 3960x1080 virtual screen space for a single vertical HD screen. If you move your mouse to the edge of the screen it will scroll what is visible. I discovered it in my triple monitor setup. I turn off screens I don’t need (they waste like 30W!), but the script I wrote to notify X11 of these changes doesn’t work as reliably as I would like, lol. Also duplicate polybar sometimes, haha.
Not sure how useful this is, because while the application thinks it has all this screen space available you can’t actually see all of it at once.
So, Lawful Neutral is just broke? Hunh… (Counts on fingers: druids, monks, cloistered scholars…) Yeah, that tracks.
Also, ofc I’m Chaotic Neutral. Pfft. I blame Elite Dangerous, as I was once Neutral Good, but then discovered what the game was like on an Index, and then there was no reason for the monitors to start that way anymore. 🤷🏼♂️
Not a programmer, but I run Neutral Good + Lawful Neutral at the office, because my work issued a docking station with two symmetrical monitors, but they also issued me a laptop instead of a desktop, so what am going to do, not use the third monitor?
So, it’s ugly, but it works since I either put baseball on one of the big monitors or Spotify on the laptop, and work on the other two.
I am technically, but I almost never turn on my second (vertical) monitor. Usually when I have my main set to a different source and I want something from my desktop PC on the other monitor.
I'm sort of that. I've got two landscape and one portrait monitor, the portrait one is good for browsing websites like this one where there's a lot of vertical text. I actually find myself preferring the landscape ones for coding since my IDE has a lot of stuff in sidebars and also some of the lines of text are very long.
I’m a mix between chaotic neutral and lawful neutral. I have a vertical monitor on my left which is mainly for slack + documents. Center screen for code and what ever I’m focused on and laptop screen on the right for calendar, email, other not in focus things.
I’m chaotic neutral too but I don’t code on the diagonal monitor. I only have it diagonal because my neck hurts looking at the side screen if I have them both horizontal lol
Don’t take the chart seriously. Pretty much all of these setups are good for their uses and are done by someobdy, even certain forms of “chaotic evil”.
