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

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.

So if you have a monitor hooked up to a desktop on the left, and a separate laptop running a different OS on the right, is it lawful neutral or true neutral x 2?

Chaotic neutral - Laptop + larger monitor

I have a chaotic neutral setup for work.

Chaotic neutral

[–] 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.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

So, would using a monitor and a phone screen be lawful neutral too? Because that's what I usually do if I need to look up things for whatever I'm doing and don't want to boot up my desktop web browser.

We have neutral evil at my work and it sometimes hurts my soul.

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

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. 🤷🏼‍♂️

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

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

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.

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

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.

[–] orphiebaby@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

All of these are good and sometimes necessary except the bottom-right.

[–] Strayce@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Lawful Good, but they're all different sizes. So.. Chaotic Good? Chaotic Evil? Who knows.

[–] SkinnyTimmy@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Hell yeah brother

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

[–] Thisfox@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Apparently the school requires me to be at the extreme end of lawful neutral. Two views, nonidentical, very different in size.

[–] SkinnyTimmy@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

At home: Chaotic good but with three monitors that are all different sizes

At work: Two monitors side by side, and then one above them

[–] pacjo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

True neutral right now, but since I'm already here, does anyone know if curved monitor is viable as a secondary display? I already have the monitor around, but since it's not rotatable I can't really try this setup for myself.

It'd be 27' 1440p flat horizontally (main) and 24' 1080p curved vertically next to it.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I was Lawful Neutral, but gave my monitors to my wife in exchange for a better single monitor. Nothing special, just a 27" Samsung w/ a high refresh rate and richer blacks that I found difficult to achieve with my old monitors. I found that I rarely (if ever) used both of them. Only while looking up information in MMOs like Classic WoW, but I play those so seldom these days that I'm getting a lot out of a single.
