Wish I had anything to offer :/ all I've got is (somewhat bulky) stuff and thats... not particularly helpful in your situation as far as I'm aware. A couple older monitors (23 inch 1080p, displayport, hdmi, VGA)

Any luck with the Duluth folks??

[Rantble Paragraph] I have two decently nice monitors you can have if you can extract them from my biofam in Oklahoma :D Assuming they haven't just done a bonfire with all' my stuff I left behind. In fact, there's a bunch of stuff there that I'd rather anyone but them have. ... Pretty sure I can't just drop their address here though I kinda want to. Just have a random pile of critters show up like "Hey, we're here to pick up Keris's DAC and headphones and maybe a monitor." "Who the fuck is Keris?" Haaah! ... Might get shot though. I'm just ranting, and daydreaming a little 😅 Fuckers did threaten and practically try to kill me, leaving me without phone service while I was out in the middle of a city bigger than anything in their state. And more diverse than anywhere they'd go, which I mention because they're terrified of people who aren't cis het white Christian blah-blah-blah and that's most of the critters I meet up here 😅 Anyway they either don't care at all or found out I'm up here and deliberately tried to get me hurt. Grr, I say.

Duluth-critter responded! My private-type message didn't get through their app thingle they use, but I poked again via reply and chatted some and I'm probably headed there tomorrow. BREAKING NEWS I just found out there's a Taco John's just minutes up the road from where I'll be staying 🤣 Oooohhh if I can figure out how to cross the road to get to the bus stop for that direction I'm gonna be thrilled 😅

That would be funny, I'm more than good on monitors tho, i snagged 3 of a nice model in sale over the summer for about 250 a pop (Dell S2721QS) at micro center for work-from-home (which has since been cut down to 2 days a week sadly, still nice to have tho). Still have my old 1080p monitors

No point sending people to BioFam, it'd suck if someone got hurt as a result 🫤 I'm painfully familiar with the type (grandparents).

And, WOOT! thrilled to hear about the duluth folks 😀
