I'm not a huge gamer anymore so I actually reduced my setup from 3 16:9 monitors to a single 21:9 monitor. I find myself more focused on the task I am doing when there isn't the distraction of so many open windows.

I recently got this new solid walnut tabletop which is much heavier than the old IKEA tabletop I had that could be pushed around.

Obligatory cat. 🐈

The cat is critical!

ah yes, the ikea-"set a slab on two filing cabinets"-desk method. an exceptional way to go.

Uninspired for sure, but the tabletop is some pretty nice solid wood. Some day I'll find some better legs or drawers. 🫠

No plastic protector for the carpet?! We got a wild one here!

what monitor is it?

[-] Izzy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Acer Nitro XV340CK 34" QHD (3440 x 1440) IPS, 144Hz, 1ms VRB, HDR10 Technology

I am not into curved monitors quite yet so my requirements were a flat ips monitor that is 1440p and 144hz. This was really the only option at the time which was surprising. Might still be as everything is going curved.

I asked specifically because I would not want to buy a curved monitor, so this looked perfect. Thank you.

That natural light looks wonderful!

The wallpaper is something....
