[@julionunez5251]

One of the best intro ever! Very nice work man!

[@synthdude7664]

Not a lot of people will realize this, but the ergonomics of this setup is proper. I’ll start with the audio, studio monitors for flat frequency response of the krks are properly positioned in terms of distance from listener , distance from eachother, and elevation relative to listeners ear. Also, the sound not being covered by any obstructions, such as placing the monitors behind the screen such that the sound will hit the back of the monitor to some degree and wreck the sound field. most people and youtubers I see have no idea where they need to place speakers, or even understand the basics regarding how the sound leaves the speaker and how the woofers and tweeters triangulate at what is called the sweet spot to recreate proper stereofield of sound To support this, the top of the 49” ultra wide placed about 2’ away from the front of his head and is lined up at eye level. Alongside the elevation of the monitors which also are are lined up with ear level. I can see this is a very proper setup , and not many people set their system up like this. It’s just proper, and it’s a big pet peeve of mine watching youtubers have very nice expensive gear positioning them incorrectly. And that’s an objective truth. The recommendations of manufacturers are recommended to provide the the marketed specs of the gear, and when there is a user error , you get diminishing returns on the products. Which is my gripe with big youtubers , having 10,000 speaker setups with the speakers above their heads , or the positioning of them are so wide that the stereofield doesn’t recreate the intended audio data and so on and so forth. It’s just refreshing to see someone do it right.

[@araltasher]

Appreciate the insightful comment man. It’s pretty cool to see someone appreciate the little details like that for sure 🔥🤙🏻 I don’t claim to be an expert, but I try to do an extensive research before investing any type of tool/product

@@marshchawki1912 so funny!

[@mo3k]

You can make one! Also; you say underdeveloped; but I think it's more likely a country that is not over-developed. Life in a super-materialistic over-consuming country has many negative aspects; stress is likely the biggest one. It feels like one's living in an commercial. Unlike our ancestors, living with a complete lack of connection with Earth brings upon large amounts of anxiety and depression. Not to say anything of Aral, but most people don't even realize that they're breathing-eating-sleeping - practically living - for the dollar bill. I'll give up a desk for that.

[@Omikoshi78]

During quarantine I experimented with upgrading my monitor setup. I went all the way to 3x 43in monitor. I had to downgrade to 2x 43in monitor because of neck strain + not using the 3rd monitor as much. As someone who was always obsessed with larger and larger monitor, I finally found the limit lol

OMG me too - I brought home both large screen monitors when we went wfh but have only used one and the laptop itself. The second one takes up too much space and my eyes get strained from looking all around - makes me sick to my stomach! LOL

[@PaladinJenkis]

One anecdote from one of my previous jobs. Well you might not know that but in almost every company I was working on, screen real estate was a scarce resource. If you managed to somehow convice your boss or manager that you needed a sencond monitor, that ment somehting. It was like the status symbol itself. So one day we got a bunch of new LG 27" 2k screens and I was super happy to swap it with my glossy cinema display. Naturally I returned the cinema display. Everybody did, except our notoriously, over the top douchebaggy, IOS lead engineer (who was a complete morron btw.) So what happened then, he didn't only refuse to return his old cinema display but he snagged 2 more just to add them on his desk just to show of his superior "Monitor Status" and to make it impossible for someone else to sit next to him. The irony of the story was that he did not know how to properly utilize all the pixels he got which made him maximizing little tools that don't need that much space. So every time you went past his desk and looked what he was doind, you saw slack in friggin fullscreen, it made him look very stupid. Don't be like that guy, please use your screen properly.

[@drewfyre7693]

Same goes for me. I have a 49" screen at work and a 34" screen at home. I find the 34" way more comfortable to use. The 49" is just too wide and missing height.

@@drewfyre7693 I use an LG 43" monitor for the same reason. It runs great and is huge both vertically and horizontally

Not sure why the size matters for that, aspect ratio matters more. I use a 49" but it's 16:9 and works great for me. I could understand if it were 32:9 though, that would be kind of annoying and weird.

[@drewfyre7693]

@@ashleydarkstone1949 Which monitor are you using? I havent seen any 16:9 49" monitors yet. Is it a pc monitor you are using or is it a tv screen?

[@ashleydarkstone1949]

@@drewfyre7693 4K TV. And I would specifically get 4K because of both the size and shape. If you had a 32:9 49" monitor it would be fine at just 1080p, because the monitor height is about the same as a typical monitor, just wider. With something this width and height, you'll want something with a higher resolution (1080p won't look as good) and you'll want to sit back from it a bit. Typically I have the resolution at 4k, and the zoom at 150%-175%, sitting about 5-6 feet away and it's perfect for me, for both work, reading, and watching videos.
