  • But how big is it (resolution/physical size) ?

    I feel like I will never go for more than present 4k with around 80cm width (but it is curved, so screen surface is enough), because if I try to stuff more windows visible at the same time, it becomes more info than I can process. So, unless I start building something like personal dashboard, this is my limit: finally see enough, do not get overwhelmed


  • Fairly limited tasks like backend development, yeah.

    But true I had no idea what people really use for graphics and sound, thank you for pointing thouse out.

    GUI for git, merge and diff does not bother me either, but that is a personal quirk. Thank you for those too, I will at least take a look

    You seem to have moderate expectations towards visual computing.

    Got me a hundred percent 🙂. Maybe when I have more money I will dive into the beautiful world of high-quality graphics



  • Games: nope. Same as someone above, I’ve got Cyberpunk on Linux

    Office/Adobe… may be a fair point for some Nvidia card: nope, works fine

    HDR: did not even bother to learn what is. Can be a fair point

    Fractional scaling - genuine question: who the hell ever needs this? I have gone from 1K resolution (standard laptop) to 2K to 2.5K to 34K with curved monitor and never ever ever did I think “hey, this big screen? I want everything bigger/smaller on it”. What do people use fractional scaling for?

    Nah, this is not harm, this is “basically, way too many people are fucking idiots”. Idiots enough to think that just with "I voted"tm they have done something to really move things toward a better life for everyone

    Well… true that only voting does not much help when those who make the rules are not someone you can influence. Also true that abandoning voting is just plain dumb.

    Saddest part: I have no answer to the question of how to make a society that works well for everyone with people who do not understand that to ensure wellbeing of anyone the wellbeing of all and everyone must be ensured


  • Logical and human friendly answer: mutable objects are not a problem, poorly designed code is

    Personal rant: why even bother with objects, just use strings, ints, floats, arrays and hashmaps (sarcascm. I have spent hours uncovering logic of large chunks of code with no declaration of what function expects and produces what)

    And also, seeing endless create-object-from-data-of-other-object several times has made me want to punch the author of that code in the face. Even bare arrays and hashmaps were less insane than that clusterfuck
