  • I have four monitors. Two slightly angled directly in front of me, one angled on the left and a small 10 inch directly below my two main monitors that I use specifically for discord and my friend’s chat app he’s working on.

    Why two directly in front of me with the split in the middle? I only have to shift my head slightly to move between the game I’m playing and whatever I’m watching.

    But it’s more useful when I’m working on pixel art because I can have my drawing on one main monitor and my reference in the other while having a show or stream on the secondary angled on my left and chat stays on the small monitor.

    As for if that helps productivity, I have no idea.

    But I sure like my setup now.

    It’s not real currency, it’s a token.

    I can’t use it to pay my taxes to the US federal government and it must be traded in for actual currency to do so.

    Just like a token at an arcade.

    They are also vehicles of wild speculation… And unlike stocks (where I gain partial ownership of a company) and bonds (where I gain a claim on their monetary inflows and primacy if the venture crumbles), crypto gives me… What exactly?

    I don’t get to be an owner or a creditor. I become… Holder of a mining incentive?

    I’m sorry it’s not what a lot of people seem to think it is.
