I know it's been out for years but I don't understand anything about this meme format. Reminds me of mbti bullshit

[–] Alto@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

It's an alignment chart, most commonly used for D&D (and other TTRPG) characters.

I’ve got a sideways monitor, a rightway monitor and a laptop all scrunched together, what does that make me?

[–] el_bhm@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You are not invited to D&D.

Go watch some Stranger Things

I think they're all evil with those skulls on the screen.

Chaotic good, one 32" 2560×1440 display, one old 19" 1280×1024 display (mainly used for referencing docs, for a debugger, or watching a VTuber or a conference presentation).

  • 50% of web developers: Chaotic Neutral
  • Salespeople: Lawful Neutral
  • Programmers (and the other 50% of web developers): Unaligned, we know how to use shortcuts.

Why is it neutral evil to have a monitor without a face?

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

You don't have a soul trapped inside your desktop wallpaper?

[–] shanghaibebop@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Chaotic neutral should be a solo laptop screen.

[–] Ddhuud@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Chaotic good. I refuse to get rid of the little one. My electronics only leave me when they're fubar.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I guess I'm LE. Its the only way my monitors would fit in my space :(

I am chaotic good at home with a 4K and a laptop screen

But at work it’s all 1080 monitors (unfortunately) so I have 3 and I a mix of chaotic neutral and lawful evil 😂 2 portraits then a landscape

I'm lawful neutral monitorally but ideologically chaotic neutral. This and that then.

You forgot just laptop and my other screens are just pretty pictures. Covid really changed how I work hahaha

[–] hot_milky@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I use a 42" 4K monitor. Same working area as 4 x 21" 1920x1080 screens but more flexible. Been doing so for ~10 years. When my old 39" 4K monitor broke I used 2 x 24 inch monitors + laptop screen for a while but I ended up buying another big monitor instead, it's just so convenient.

I'm a reverse Lawful Neutral; laptop on the left, monitor on the right.

Before that I had a 16:9 monitor on the left and a 4:3 monitor on the right. That doesn't seem to be in the chart anywhere.

Seriously, someone needs to start making high-quality 4:3 monitors again. Sure, they're not great for movies and modern video games, but they're great for reading.

[–] Macropolis@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Chaotic evil baby. I need somewhere to read long documents, manga, man pages and configs.

The "tie fighter" setup of vertical, horizontal, vertical, gives me nausea

Lawful good at home.

Laptop and two horizontal monitors at work. Is that lawful neutral good or neutral good lawful?

Personally, I think it's probably neutral awful - one is HDMI and the other is VGA.

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

[–] Famborghini@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year 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.

I'd swap lawful evil and neutral evil.

[–] ajnixzy@feddit.fun 3 points 1 year ago

Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.

[–] FleetingTit@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm a combination of neutral good and lawful neutral. 2 identical monitors + laptop.

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.

[–] NightmareQueenJune@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

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

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?

[–] jackoneill@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Gaming setup is true neutral Work from home setup is lawful neutral Office setup is chaotic evil
