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 good looking to become chaotic gooder with a third misshapen monitor.

[–] Theharpyeagle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years 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.

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

I'm on the third Z axis of this chart

two screens same size to the front, laptop on a riser to my left, at a right angle, third, smaller screen to the left of that connected to a second laptop

Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.

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 guess I'm chaotic neutral. I've never had enough money to buy two of the same monitor. All of my stuff is stuff I got either for free from school or for extremely cheap.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] Pringles@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My setup isn't featured, but it's basically neutral good with the laptop below it in the middle.

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

[–] jackoneill@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Chaotic good but I REALLY vibe with that chaotic evil

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

What about square screens?

Chaotic Evil is that stupid hacking computer in Swordfish.

[–] chahk@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years 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.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years 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.

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

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

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

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[–] chrishazfun@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Chaotic Neutral, if you align the secondary monitor right Everything Works™

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

[–] AlgeriaWorblebot@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] MirthfulAlembic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm both chaotic good and lawful neutral, depending if it's for my job or not. I suppose that's a fair assessment of the difference between my professional character and home character.

[–] words_number@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

I've been neutral good, chaotic good and chaotic neutral in the past and am now lawful evil. No idea what that is supposed to mean though xD
