This isn’t inherently fast fashion, and on-demand shirt printing isn’t a new thing. I had a cafepress t-shirt I used for ~10 years and only got rid of it because I lost weight.
Really? I tried the first M1 Mac Minis, and bluetooth was terrible -- macOS would constantly switch to the worst quality profile. I use an iPhone on a daily basis, and I always with its bluetooth was as reliable as my Linux laptop.
What exactly did you find lacking in the Linux world? Are you an audio professional?
I've been doing web dev (react) contracting for 8 months now. First months was 50 and 60/hr, then big, main contract at 100, now 160 as a part time. Quite the learning experience, and goes to show how far confidence will take you.
I've taken two breaks in the last 5 months. The first, i had about a week of the worst anxiety/depression I've ever had in my life. Was really a wake up call on how much it really is a drug. The more recent one, I had splitting headaches for a couple of days. Both times, I thought I had weaned down to small enough amounts before cutting it off, but i guess not. Still working on my relationship with coffee.
Since everyone is just using this thread to post their own experiences with the monitors they use, I'm curious a bit further...what is actually on your monitors while developing? (Interested specifically in web dev, since that's what i do).
For me, I am fine with 3 windows at a time, achieved by my laptop display, and my 4k screen split vertically. Code and SO/docs on the big screen, and then the testing browser (ptobably with console open) on the laptop screen. I don't really see any use for another monitor or more screen real estate.
I've done 2 monitors and 1 monitor + laptop screen, and a single monitor, and I mostly prefer single monitor. Sometimes 1 monitor + laptop is useful for webdev--or if I'm in a particularly chatty Slack (or whatever), but I've found the less I have to swivel my body/neck the better. The most successful 1 monitor + laptop has been is when I can put the laptop beneath the screen. But these days I find I don't want to suffer the laptop keyboard (well, really lack of TrackPoint--I have a ThinkPad USB Keyboard SK8855).
Maybe the only problem I have now is "webcam looks down on you", which I don't like and makes me consider 1 monitor + laptop beneath again. MBP keyboards are better now so... maybe I can suffer the trackpad? Maybe it won't give me RSI?
I have a three 27" monitor setup with iMac. I tend to dedicate one display to communication and entertainment apps--Outlook, Slack/Mattermost, Spotify; I'll have my IDE in my center display, and on the third display I'll have terminals, utility editor windows, or browser windows--depending on what I'm working on, e.g. when writing front-end Javascript, I have my browser and developer tools open, and maybe a window open to MDN's docs.
I have one 4k monitor no scaling,so plenty of space one one screen. The main thing I use the width for is the browser dev tools: I can have the site fully open and network requests and responses. Also, even horizontally there's plenty of height to see lots of code. But I really don't want to have to many things on the screen at the same time. Except when doing things like copying from one window to another.
Similar here. Slightly smaller monitor, but 3 of them. Only two at a time is typically used for development. The third is for me to tile apps like Slack and Spotify.
Yeah, no kidding, and I'm surprised I haven't seen them talked about much on the internet...for a complete outsider, they're completely insane and nonsensical. And for somebody that kind of knows the history of the subreddits, it's a super interesting study on how being financially invested in something can totally warp your beliefs and thinking.
