I keep my laptop open to display my email and I have a single 26” monitor for everything else.I split my apps over 3 desktops - one for coding, one for general web browsing, and one for chat apps. It works pretty well.

I agree with the dude that Bob linked. It’s possible for a monitor to be too big imo. At least for work usage. The point of going to a single screen is to be able to focus in on one thing. If it’s fuckoff huge you still end up with a bunch of windows open anyway. Or you have one, not maximized, and are just wasting money on a massive screen.

Wibla posted:I'm looking to get a 43" 4K for work and ditch the two 1080p monitors I have now. I have one for home, and it’s overkill. But I miss it terribly when I have to slum with my 27” 4K at work. Somewhere in the 30s would be just right. I also dislike dual monitor setups as I can only focus on one screen at a time and the other is a distraction. With the single large screen I still focus on what’s going on in the middle and then play with the extra real estate if I need to look at a couple of things.

Hey guys it's not common to host your website out of your literal Comcast Business connection out of your office building right? I think this is what's going on at my wife's place of work. She doesn't work in IT. It's a printing company.

It's less expensive and the risk may not be very large. What are the consequences if the website goes down? Does it affect production, or do customers just try to visit it again the next day?

The web server is often not in a DMZ so if it's hacked it's a good jumping off point to the rest of the company. A lot of times people are trying to interface with another machine on the network (ERP system for example) in order to do something like a shopping cart or ordering on the website, and they didn't know how to access that internal system from a hosted server.

There's no point hosting some random website that contains some static information about your company from your office when dirt cheap web hosts exist.

e: nevermind I misread, but the goon hosting is pretty legit: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2818800 I host 5 sites on mine and it's like $60 per year for the hosting, and one of the domain names came free with the plan.

I still like my 34" ultrawide. I have a couple of standard configurations and I always keep things in the same places on the same virtual desktops, and I use Magnet to assign windows to splits WinSplit Revolution-style, so I don't sweat where to put windows. It's nice to be able to use 1/3 or 1/2 or whatever splits if I need to do some pretty deep comparative analysis, or keep docs and code and tests all next to each other. But if I'm trying to focus, I just default to the laptop alone now.

So they were being hit with a DoS attack all this week, so there's that. At least the web site is only static info, like others said, but I don't see the point and it opens you up for other problems. I found out that their "IT guy" is an oldbeard from the 90s who's friends with the owner. He probably has the whole thing set up like convoluted garbage as job security. Probably still has that attitude that you could have 20 years ago that says, "What are you gonna do, fire me? I run the computers! No one else knows about computers!"
