Chaotic good looking to become chaotic gooder with a third misshapen monitor.

[–] Theharpyeagle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Honestly, these days I just work directly on my laptop. Get to use touchpad gestures which is nice, grilling my hands under CPU load maybe less nice.

It's usually enough to just alt+tab between my IDE and browser, so my workflow hasn't suffered much.

Lawful Neutral reporting in!

[–] DrPop@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hello fellow compatriot, I'm not a programmer but this is definitely my work set up. Now to be a lawful person but judge everybody.

I suppose I'm technically true neutral since I have a vertical monitor on one side and my laptop on the other.

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm a combination of neutral good and lawful neutral. 2 identical monitors + laptop.

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago

What makes a person turn neutral-neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?

[–] megane_kun@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Due to a mistake I made, I'm chaotic good instead of neutral good. Current set-up is a 27" 1080p HDMI on the left, and 24" 1080p VGA on the right. Not too much in a hurry to replace my smaller monitor though, I need to upgrade my graphics card first to allow for a HDMI-HDMI configuration at least.

[–] DharkStare@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Chaotic neutral isn't that bad when you're doing programming since the extra vertical space is really convenient.

I've been lawful neutral ever since the pandemic forced work from home.

I'm on the third Z axis of this chart

two screens same size to the front, laptop on a riser to my left, at a right angle, third, smaller screen to the left of that connected to a second laptop

I'd swap lawful evil and neutral evil.

[–] zabadoh@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

I'm neutral impoverished.

[–] icedcoffee@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Chaotic neutrals wya?! Especially when I was using a Mac for work with ShiftIt

[–] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Lawful Evil at work Neutral Good at home Shockingly accurate about more than just the monitors!

[–] BeezKnuts@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I guess I'm chaotic neutral. I've never had enough money to buy two of the same monitor. All of my stuff is stuff I got either for free from school or for extremely cheap.

[–] ex_nihilo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

What if I use a 48 inch OLED TV as a monitor?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Chaotic neutral except i have a vertical one on each side like a big H. I do a lot of document writing

[–] WarlordSdocy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I think the closest is chaotic good although I have three monitors, two smaller ones on each side and a bigger one in the center so kinda lawful good too.

[–] chrishazfun@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Chaotic Neutral, if you align the secondary monitor right Everything Works™

[–] TheCee@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

What about square screens?

Chaotic neutral - Laptop + larger monitor

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hey my old monitor setup isn't here.

Main display is normal with a laptop underneath, a vertical display to the left with a laptop display on the bottom under the first monitor

All of these are good and sometimes necessary except the bottom-right.

[–] nyan@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 years ago

So if you have a monitor hooked up to a desktop on the left, and a separate laptop running a different OS on the right, is it lawful neutral or true neutral x 2?

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

So, would using a monitor and a phone screen be lawful neutral too? Because that's what I usually do if I need to look up things for whatever I'm doing and don't want to boot up my desktop web browser.

[–] MirthfulAlembic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm both chaotic good and lawful neutral, depending if it's for my job or not. I suppose that's a fair assessment of the difference between my professional character and home character.

[–] StarkillerX42@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

A neat trick I learned recently. The vertical /smaller/secondary monitor should go on different sides for different people. Hold a finger close to your face and close one eye and then the other. Whichever eye more closely matches the both-eye image is your dominant eye and is where your secondary monitor should go.

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Chaotic good. I got an older smaller 720p monitor as second. Hey if it works.

[–] gsf@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

Same. And I fixed the 720p with a resistor kit a few years ago when it fritzed out. Some terminal fonts look great on those chunky pixels.
