infernal machines posted:i have a 2407wfp hc that i still use on my workbench, it's a solid monitor, and it has component input, which is still handy i picked up an hp l2335 there too. was $1800 in 2004 lol. backlight bleed galore, but actually not too bad at all in other respects. i love these cathode-lit 16:10 monitors, people are literally throwing them out and theyre still great 15 years later. i wish there was some way to get this stuff en masse and set up battlestations for financially strapped college students who are doing everything from home rn. having two huge screens in college/grad school made work way easier, i cant imagine having to also take 100% of my classes on some 2012 macbook air with a cracked screen and dead battery (said gf is doing her phd on literally this.)

i remember spending like $549 on this in 2005, and it staying with me through 2015, with it being my main display up through 2013. that screen went the distance

16:10 is the only acceptable ratio.

Sweevo posted:"i will die on this hill defending my tiny overpriced tv" i pick a monitor based on more important factors, if those factors lead me to a 16:10 monitor, i'd get one, if they don't, then i'd get 16:9 it seems bananas to me to put 16:10 at the top of your priority list excluding so many other useful factors

both 16:9 and 16:10 are SAD and FAILING in comparison to the incredible new aspect ratio of 21:9. it's the first time you will ever have a proper layout to genuinely do more than one thing at a time, without an ugly seam between two screens, and as a neat bonus it's the same ratio as anamorphic cinema widescreen so all your art movies fit it perfectly.

once you hit 1440p it's no long a big deal. but 1920x1200 vs 1920x1080? you bet your rear end i want the 16:10 display. i tell you hwat's really sexy, those big honkin 38" ultrawides that run at 3840x1600. LG has this beast: IPS, 144hz, Gsync https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-38GL950G-B-gaming-monitor but apparently it has a loving cooling fan for the gsync module

on laptops yeah, on the desktop it literally does not matter if you can trivially get a monitor way larger than you need to cover your field of vision. you don't have to use every application in the aspect ratio of your monitor, just get a monitor that is tall enough and make your application whatever aspect ratio suits you.

driver hate for cyclists is all projection. a person behind the wheel of a car is literally insane, and at some subconscious level, they know what they are doing is wrong. and then a cyclist shows up and it's like, here is this moral person, this paragon of humanity, and not only are they flouting their virtuous choices in my face, but they dare to inconvenience me while they're doing it! urrrgggghhhhh RAGE

are there 8k monitors other than the dell from 2017 (checking the specs of that one now i realize its better than i thought lol. did it originally have displayport 1.4 back then or did they ninja-update the specs?) 120 hz would be nice but its not a deal breaker e: ah it had displayport 1.4 but no dsc so it still needs two cables. sad poty fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Jul 24, 2020 |
