I have 5 if you count the one on my server.

One 1440p, 3 1080s- one in a vertical orientation for reading through lengthy config files. An additional 1080p that is used for specific servers, so I’m not sure if that counts since it’s technically a different machine ?

Use case varies drastically but, left to right:

Monitor 1 on the left is typically used for for videos throughout my work day, usually some Indian guy explaining a very technical concept in fractured English in a notepad document- that’s how you know you’re in deeeeep

Monitor 2 is the 1440 and it’s the main event so to speak. Whatever I’m working on the most at that moment goes onto that monitor.

Monitor 3 is the vertical monitor and used mostly for comms separated into 2-3 sections. Video calls on top, work chat underneath that. Config files opened in notepad++ when not actively using the comms.

Monitor 4 is technically on a different machine as well but it stays on my desk and looks like a normal part of the setup. I use mouse without borders to use my keyboard across both systems.

Monitor 5 is attached to an Dell Poweredge that I use as a proxmox host, which itself is used to host a pi-hole, home assistant, graylog, an truenas instance running plex. The truenas thing will probably go away and I’ll run the plex server directly on a machine with more graphical capability. On its other input is an old datto that doesn’t really do much yet.

Note: not a software dev, but a network engineer

Kinda varies. That particular monitor is pretty multi purpose, it has a server on the hdmi, a server on the vga, and a little dell tower that gets used as a demo machine/sacrificial lamb depending on the experiment. Day to day I’d say that’s the default.

For the servers it’s just console access for convenience. They mostly run headless.

Power toys is the BEST (if you just have to use windows anyway)

TexMexBazooka ,

So I originally bought one due do family circumstances. A family member was in a heavily HEAVILY censored part of the world- the type of place that you can’t get emails or text messages out of. The type of place where any communication sent over their network WAS being monitored, so you had to speak very carefully.

iMessage was the only 100% reliable method of contact, so I got an iPhone and just haven’t upgraded since.

ITT: religion and pests

TexMexBazooka , (edited )

That’s the thing though, most people don’t view a religion as an ethical lens, they view it as a dogma to be followed unconditionally under threat of eternal torture.

TexMexBazooka ,

Well yeah, shooting back is what happens. Russia has such a victim complex.

TexMexBazooka ,

The fact that it would run with no oil and all four engine mounts broken

TexMexBazooka ,

Because religion is all about dividing people into arbitrary groups. Catholicism is a specific type of dogmatic Christian theology

TexMexBazooka ,

No.

TexMexBazooka ,

Honestly? I think you’re cursed.

Yeah the mod didn’t announce they were doing it, there was an active top level post saying the community didn’t want anyone to take the interview.

They went rogue, did it anyway, made the subreddit and themselves look like a fucking dunce and a half. They didn’t even clean their god damn room, there was like dirty laundry and shit in the background.

Asinine. It could’ve been a catalyst moment for a lot of people if someone with some media training had taken the interview, or if we had said nothing.

The idea that there will never been any resource scarcity is a pipe dream

The thing about trump rallies is you’d have to look really hard to find someone with a full set of functioning brain cells.

Are there any online or in-person communities dedicated to minimizing the influence advertising has on its members? Do you know any strategies to minimize this effect on you?

Is there a lemmy community, for example, where people discuss shopping strategies which minimize the risk of the purchase decision being influenced by Brand Image or Flashy Packaging? Or similar topics. Maybe what product categories have cheapest products that are bad, so you can’t apply an objective criterion while making the...

'Hamas mouthpiece': Netanyahu lauds new law allowing him to shut Al-Jazeera in Israel (www.haaretz.com)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed the law’s passing, saying that “Al Jazeera has harmed Israel’s security, actively participated in the October 7 massacre, and incited against IDF soldiers. It’s time to remove Hamas’ mouthpiece from our country.”...

Anything other than completely upheaving US foreign policy and throwing all of our king standing military alliances in question during a time a unmatched geopolitical tension will satisfy the “genocide joe” crowd.

I don’t even necessarily disagree, it’s just thinking through the ramifications of that

How Would You Handle Students Cheating?

I gave my students a take home exam over spring break. (This is normal where I teach) One of the questions was particulary difficult. It came down to a factor of three in the solution. That factor inexplicably appeared with no justification on many of their exams. I intend to have the students I suspect of cheating come to my...

TexMexBazooka ,

Yeah you have a take home test over the holidays, fuck that

TexMexBazooka ,

Your edit isn’t winning anybody over.

Why is there a pronounced (stereotypical) dichotomy between listening music and gaming music?

Not talking about less than macro scales so don’t get pedantic about some exception. The early days were limited by silicon tech and memory storage, but those don’t exist any more. So why is it that game music and pop cultural music have not seemingly cross pollinated? Micro genres? Other?

TexMexBazooka ,

Why is there a dichotomy between movie soundtracks and listening music?

Same question

What theocracy does to a mfer

TexMexBazooka , (edited )

It’s weird how that works huh? Wouldn’t wanna upset anybodies fee fees

TexMexBazooka ,

…what’re you talking about?

Not wanting to hurt peoples fee fees is why Lemmy.Ml censors stuff.

TexMexBazooka ,

A lot of .ml’s moderation is pretty ironic

TexMexBazooka ,

I mean let’s be real, it’s incredibly complex and amazing technology. Borderline magic. And depending on where you are, yeah consistently using large amounts of bandwidth can and will impact other users.

So a policy like this makes sense, to a point. It’s when they auto charge you for hitting a “limit” that grinds my gears.

You can’t really be religious, especially a follower of Abrahamic faiths without

A: accepting what the texts actually say, which involves implicit acceptance of abhorrent views

Or

B: cherry picking and denying the abhorrent parts, which means you aren’t actually following the religion at all

If you go with B, you’re not really religious, you’re spiritual and searching for purpose and grabbing the easiest answer available.

Religion is poison

Racism is the short answer believe it or not

You okay kiddo?

144hz is a game changer

TexMexBazooka ,

Oh yeah there’s definitely a significant difference between 1080 and 4k visually, but it’s not super impactful for me anyway

TexMexBazooka ,

I mean, that’s subjective. If it’s impactful for you? Then sure, it matters for you. It isn’t for me, therefore doesn’t

The more important question, is why are you being so hostile over…. video resolution?

TexMexBazooka , (edited )

Doesn’t show removed on my end, but wouldn’t surprise me.

Working-age death rate 2.5x higher in the US than other countries (newatlas.com)

Working-age US adults are dying at far higher rates than their peers from high-income countries, even surpassing death rates in Central and Eastern European countries, and midlife mortality rates in the UK are not great either. A new study has examined what’s caused this rise in the death rates of these two cultural...

That only works if you’re a white male

Lol yeah, especially working from home

They added a bunch of QoL features from mods into the base game. Nice, I respect it.
