  • I got one used, and not specifically because it was curved, I just wanted a monitor and it was available for a good price. The curve is mild and the monitor is only 24" so I don’t notice it very much. The monitor feels a bit flatter to my eyes than my laptop screen due to field of vision.


  • I already have 2 monitors (including my laptop screen because I’m primarily on laptop) but recently I tried using Google Earth on a desktop with a fast i7-13700 and a 1440p monitor and it was so immersive. If each pixel was 100m, I could see 256km, all with minimal hiccups.

    It reminded me I want a big 4k Monitor for this stuff, maybe even of TV size.



  • If you really want to spend lots of money to reap the rewards from the credit cards, you can prepay them, so that your balance will be negative. You’ll also be seen as having “low revolving utilization.”

    The downside is you need the money upfront of course, money that could’ve been being invested.
