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?

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

Chaotic good but I REALLY vibe with that chaotic evil

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

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

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

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

Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.

[–] [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?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lawful Neutral reporting in!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year 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.

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

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

Lawful Neutral + Chaotic Evil...

I have so many screens...

[–] [email protected] 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.

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.

I have four screens from four different manufacturers, with three different sizes, three different resolutions, two different aspect ratios and two different refresh rates.
Two of these are resurrected from the dead of which one has a high voltage cold cathode driver externally plastered to it's back (because the internal failed and there was no space inside) and the other one shining from every pore because I "replaced" one cold cathode tube by plastering the "replacement" tube somewhere in the housing of the monitor to fool the driver into thinking all tubes are fine (one was defect, the driver doesn't work without every tube connected and putting the replacement in the place where it should belong is too much work).
I am basically the evil necromancer of chaotic evil.

  1. 27 inch, 1440p, 16:9, 144Hz, Asus
  2. 24 inch, 1080p, 16:9, 60Hz (driver sticking out), BenQ
  3. 21 inch, 1080p, 16:9, 60Hz, Iiyama
  4. 21 inch, 1680x1050p, 16:10, 60Hz, Eizo

I can provide pictures later today if someone's interested.
Edit: Here are the pictures

I hope an Imgur link is fine. If not please tell me which (multi) image hoster is fine here on lemmy. Here are a few pictures I took of my setup and the necromanced parts

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year 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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year 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

I'm at Chaotic Neutral, but my sim racing rig is Lawful Evil, so combined I guess it becomes Chaotic Evil.

And I love it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

CN for those scanned PDFs. What am I gonna do, zoom in like some kind of animal?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lol my set up is a 22" 1080p on the left for basic web viewing, 28" 1440p center for games, and a 32" 1080p on the right for videos/twitch while I'm playing games

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Once I got a widescreen monitor, I finally ditched the rest and only use my laptop as the extra screen. So lawful neutral but set up like lawful evil but lower.

Somewhere between chaotic neutral & chaotic evil here.

One of a pair as portrait, the other as landscape; laptop left-aligned with landscape & base-aligned with portrait for an appropriately unholy trio.

I also use workspaces and screen sessions for maximal WTFery.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

At work I have chaotic neutral but I slot my laptop underneath the landscape screen so it fits snugly in the corner.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

So, Lawful Neutral is just broke? Hunh... (Counts on fingers: druids, monks, cloistered scholars...) Yeah, that tracks.

Also, ofc I'm Chaotic Neutral. Pfft. I blame Elite Dangerous, as I was once Neutral Good, but then discovered what the game was like on an Index, and then there was no reason for the monitors to start that way anymore. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm off the chart. I have 2 mismatched monitors - a 27" and 34", and the 34 one is an ultrawide. It's wider than the other, but their bezels still line up.
