  1. Resolution - having a big screen at the same resolution doesn't really mean much, and you usually don't really go higher than 4K for computer monitors. Yes, there are 8K TVs, but good luck being able to afford one.

  2. Performance - if you want to go big, you're probably thinking of TV screens, and TVs generally just aren't built for colour accuracy, low latency, or high refresh rates.

  3. Cost - bigger computer monitors are pricier. Besides, if you are upgrading your monitor anyways, well, your old one can just become your secondary display; it's free screen estate.

  4. Ergonomics - it takes less effort to look from side to side than it is to look up and down. With multiple smaller screens, you can arrange them all to face you cockpit-style; with a giant screen, the edges will look distorted unless you buy a curved display.

  5. Software - most OSs can snap windows to the four quadrants of each display; anything smaller or more unique, and you will have to manually resize each window.

  6. Practicality - if you're working, gaming, or watching a movie, you want to dedicate an entire screen to your task at hand. Having multiple monitors lets you do that while still being able to check other things on the side. For example, when I stream games, I can play while having my OBS and Twitch stats on the side; when I do any design work, I can pull up references on my secondary display. The black bars are a non-issue.

This is a jem of a response, but by jeneralizing pronunciations of acronyms only by the way they are spelt, you are opening a jigantic can of worms on etymology and linguistics.

The jist of it is that English is a weird language, jenerally descriptive, and there can be many correct answers to the same pronunciation problem.

As for me? I'm a choosy developer, and I choose jif.

funnily enough, my twitter feed doesn't have any conservative media.

it is full of gay bara scalie porn, though.

you don't. you can try to mitigate it by using less plastic yourself, buying local foods, whatever, but it won't make much of an impact.

the less bad news is that plastic, by its own properties, is chemically relatively inert, so they're really not that harmful. they're still bad, mind you, just not all that hyped up to be.

Here's a fun thing you can do: just stop thinking about stats and make a character you'd like to bang, then just ooga booga it.

Baldur's Gate 3 may be very daunting at first, even with its genius tooltip system, so I just went straight into it with a Dragonborn barbarian with no real thought put into it other than "he's hot and totes my new fursona". You'd be surprised at how far you get and how much you pick up naturally over the next 80 hours of gameplay.

That being said, it's still not for everyone, as much as it tries to be, and if even Overwatch is too complex for you already, it might just be that the evolving game design in the industry is becoming more misaligned with your tastes, and that gamers are becoming more and more serious about the video games they play.

"Land-usage" is such a narrow-minded way to think about the implicit wants and needs of society. You sound like you've never been to actual cities, or never got your head far enough out of your arse to actually experience one.

North American suburban sprawl already proves that "enough land for us all to live comfortably" is a terrible way to live sociable lives and drains the economy due to massive swathes of those lands being used for roads and the maintenance of said roads.

I implore you to take a trip to almost any European city, and see for yourself what actual "comfortable living" for most people looks like.

I don't know, chief; have you seen modern Tetris gameplay?
