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?

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

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

[–] Templa@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

I'd swap lawful evil and neutral evil.

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.

Chaotic neutral vibin with stream on the right and game on front

Lawful Neutral reporting in!

[–] DrPop@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hello fellow compatriot, I'm not a programmer but this is definitely my work set up. Now to be a lawful person but judge everybody.

Not a programmer, but I run Neutral Good + Lawful Neutral at the office, because my work issued a docking station with two symmetrical monitors, but they also issued me a laptop instead of a desktop, so what am going to do, not use the third monitor?

So, it's ugly, but it works since I either put baseball on one of the big monitors or Spotify on the laptop, and work on the other two.

[–] Floey@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] 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.

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.

[–] zabadoh@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

I'm neutral impoverished.

[–] 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

[–] 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.

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

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

[–] Famborghini@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (5 children)

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.

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.

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

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

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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 2 years ago

Chaotic Evil is that stupid hacking computer in Swordfish.

[–] 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.

Chaotic neutral - Laptop + larger monitor

[–] 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

[–] the16bitgamer@programming.dev 2 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

What about square screens?

inb4 chaotic neckpain

[–] 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.
