I’ve got a sideways monitor, a rightway monitor and a laptop all scrunched together, what does that make me?

What about those who eschew multi monitor setups in favour of an ultrawide?

Not a programmer, but I run Neutral Good + Lawful Neutral at the office, because my work issued a docking station with two symmetrical monitors, but they also issued me a laptop instead of a desktop, so what am going to do, not use the third monitor?

So, it's ugly, but it works since I either put baseball on one of the big monitors or Spotify on the laptop, and work on the other two.

You forgot just laptop and my other screens are just pretty pictures. Covid really changed how I work hahaha

I'm a reverse Lawful Neutral; laptop on the left, monitor on the right.

Before that I had a 16:9 monitor on the left and a 4:3 monitor on the right. That doesn't seem to be in the chart anywhere.

Seriously, someone needs to start making high-quality 4:3 monitors again. Sure, they're not great for movies and modern video games, but they're great for reading.

I'm lawful neutral monitorally but ideologically chaotic neutral. This and that then.

Chaotic good. I refuse to get rid of the little one. My electronics only leave me when they're fubar.

I use a 42" 4K monitor. Same working area as 4 x 21" 1920x1080 screens but more flexible. Been doing so for ~10 years. When my old 39" 4K monitor broke I used 2 x 24 inch monitors + laptop screen for a while but I ended up buying another big monitor instead, it's just so convenient.

Why is it neutral evil to have a monitor without a face?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You don't have a soul trapped inside your desktop wallpaper?

I guess I'm LE. Its the only way my monitors would fit in my space :(

Lawful good at home.

Laptop and two horizontal monitors at work. Is that lawful neutral good or neutral good lawful?

Personally, I think it's probably neutral awful - one is HDMI and the other is VGA.

The "tie fighter" setup of vertical, horizontal, vertical, gives me nausea

Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.

[–] Famborghini 3 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Chaotic good but smaller monitor is on the left, only because I had one shitty monitor I got on sale right out of high school and eventually bought a much nicer but slightly smaller one later.

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

[–] TehWorld 3 points 1 year ago

I’m pretty sure I’m Chaotic Evil with 2x 1920x1200, 2x 1024x1200, a 1920x1080 and one 1366x768 but I don’t run any vertical anymore, so maybe not?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lawful neutral, though my laptop is up on a stand to bring it to the height of the monitor, so maybe chaotic good?

[–] DharkStare 3 points 1 year 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.

Chaotic neutral vibin with stream on the right and game on front

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year 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.

Chaotic evil baby. I need somewhere to read long documents, manga, man pages and configs.

Gaming setup is true neutral Work from home setup is lawful neutral Office setup is chaotic evil

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

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