I have a 16" laptop and lowkey hate using it when I don’t have it connected to my two 27" HD panels at my desk. Once I got to use it hooked up to two 32" 4K panels and I’ve been jealous of that setup ever since. I saw an $90 portable 15.6" monitor at Costco yesterday, looks like it can run on a single USB-C connection, and am sorta seriously considering getting that for when I’m on the road. Maybe I can get work to get me something like that.
I mean, the single laptop screen works fine when I need it, but I really prefer having more real estate.
Indicates that middle to upper management has the optimal work/pay ratio. Which in turn indicates that the company should reorganize to get rid of executives and CEOs.
My boss jumped on it and got one as soon as they came out, then complained when he couldn’t use two monitors but was kinda stuck since he’d pushed for the upgrade.
DisplayLink docks will sort that out! Ive been running my work M1 with 2 external monitors for a couple years now. 34" ultrawide for the main, 4k on the left, laptop on the right.

I have triple monitors at work and got excited to see me way out at the end of the graph until I actually read the axes. ðŸ˜

What configuration of monitors do you use? I like the capital H, myself.

I never understand how the tie fighter monitor configuration got to be this popular. It looks so stupid...

Every UI is made for widescreen ratio right? So maybe one portait for reading is cool, but what else do you want it for?

More reading, basically.

Ours are in a "ultra wide" layout, just 3 in a row.

Correlation to real-world performance is reverse.

I'd be on two monitors but my M1 MacBook Air can't output to two screens apparently.

It can!
They just have to be mirrored.

Not funny sorry bro. I had iPhone and 2 screens assigned to me for work and wasn’t even close to CEO.
jqubed@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 353d
I think they’re saying the CEO only uses the iPhone. If you have dual monitors you’re in the bottom right, even if they also give you a phone.
salty_chief@lemmy.world · -11 pts · 353d
I had 3 out of 5 of those actually. So you’re saying the CEO only needs cellphone. Still not funny more factual.
