What's your lionsona origin story? — Back when I was vaguely "into furry" but didn't have a proper fursona I'd got into the habit of saying "rawr" a lot and a friend picked up on it and started calling me lion and I just... https://retrospring.net/@taizou/a/112978955311807261

went in a dessert shop earlier and they had the menu up on 2 screens but they had more than 2 screens worth of menu so if someone wanted like a milkshake the worker had to reach up and manually page through to the milkshake page with the buttons on the monitor. good system

i suppose the comedy option would be to buy an absolute top end banger gpu and install it into this otherwise potato machine and then it can be transplanted into the new desktop whenever i get around to building that

... but i don't want to spend that kind of money rn so it'd prob end up being the absolute cheapest one with DP

and please forgive me for using the abbreviation DP i don't have room to type out displayport every time. I KNOW what you perverts are thinking though. Deluxe Paint

so i want a new monitor which i would use with 3 computers: my personal laptop, my work laptop, and my old desktop (which i want to replace at some point)
the one i'm considering has 1x hdmi and 1x displayport, the laptops would use hdmi as they only support dp over usbc and i want to keep those ports free

ideally this would mean the desktop stays connected to the other port but it doesn't HAVE dp so i'm now considering buying a new graphics card for a machine i'm trying to retire ​
