Why have many monitor when few monitor do trick?
Finally a screen wide enough to display a single error in Java.
oh dear jesus ... this sent me on a spin
This is so wrong and right on the same time!
29º represent!
Wayland isn't ready until it can do that!
It actually can.
No extra protocol should be required for it.
Just needs someone to implement it in their compositor.
Is there any use to having a DMM with a screen that large? (Off topic, but the o-scope caught my eye then the 'mini o-scope')
I literally cannot conceive of a more efficient arrangement of 17 monitors
As long as the monitors and space are squares and all monitors have the same side length
And the side of the space for monitors isn't an integer multiple of the monitor side.
Where are you getting so many 1:1 monitors?
Ideal aspect ratio for sudoku
Where can I buy this
Would Lemmy on Firefox look like this on the diagonal screens?
This slaps though! Where are all the diamond monitors at??
Hmm, that is kind of cool, in that you can have text on all 4 sides and it's still generally readable. Not really possible for vertical panels...
But it reduces the usable space in the middle, as any rectilinearly-designed webpages will have areas on the far left and right that aren't viewable except in small parts while scrolling.
Oh yeah, I was kind of playing devil's advocate. It is certainly also cursed in many ways...
where can I get square monitors?

Bolt cutters should work, no?
an angle grinder might be a better tool for the job
you could get the type that's used for large led/micro led displays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBd7_uxrq6c
16 should be rotated 37 degree to the left
Who are you to think you know better than the computer that came up with this
Well my Machine always believes Displays have to be overlapping

Edit: someone already posted it somewhere is in the thread lmao
Make sure to implement the arbitrary angles in your Wayland compositor.
arbitrary angles
You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
I cannot even conceive of how angles not based on 90° increments would render various things without issues. Or why you'd want that.
X11 already supports this lol
X11 supporting it likely doesn't mean that all software would support it flawlessly. What about Wayland?
I mean I don't see any reason why a Wayland compositor couldn't support it, it's pretty cursed either way though.
There's a screenshot in one of the other comments in this thread (from owenfromcanda, I think the other screenshots are fake)
Also the table layout at my local Chinese restaurant
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
