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.

[–] ajnixzy@feddit.fun 3 points 1 year ago

Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.

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.

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

[–] Theharpyeagle@lemmy.world 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.

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

[–] BeezKnuts@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

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.

Lawful Neutral + Chaotic Evil...

I have so many screens...

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

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.

[–] FarceMultiplier@lemmy.ca 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?

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

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 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.

[–] Templa@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

I'd swap lawful evil and neutral evil.

Chaotic neutral - Laptop + larger monitor

[–] StarkillerX42@lemmy.ml 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.

Lawful evil, but with ultrawide monitors.

[–] AlgeriaWorblebot@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 year 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.

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

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 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.

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. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[–] aeronmelon@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Chaotic Evil is that stupid hacking computer in Swordfish.

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

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

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

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 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

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 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 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.

[–] TheCee@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

What about square screens?
