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.
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, if you align the secondary monitor right Everything Works™
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.
At work I have chaotic neutral but I slot my laptop underneath the landscape screen so it fits snugly in the corner.
Chaotic good. I got an older smaller 720p monitor as second. Hey if it works.
Same. And I fixed the 720p with a resistor kit a few years ago when it fritzed out. Some terminal fonts look great on those chunky pixels.
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
All of these are good and sometimes necessary except the bottom-right.
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.

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.
The wallpaper
I love the Linus looking through the window background! I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it yet.
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

Chaotic Neutral. Sounds about right.
Apparently the school requires me to be at the extreme end of lawful neutral. Two views, nonidentical, very different in size.
I guess I'm neutral evil? I call shenanigans.
I'm lawful neutral but I never look at my laptop screen when it's hooked up to the external monitor.
