I bought a samsung tablet and the little drawer that you put the sd card in wouldn't come out so the ring you pull it out from snapped off, that's the kind of build quality i look for from the makers of folding phones

One of the biggest sources of frustration in my otherwise-excellent wfh triple-monitor setup (two external 23" monitors and my Macbook's screen) is that MacOS refuses to allow you to lock the dock to a single screen. So, when I've got any window going the full length of either of my external monitors, and I let my mouse hover towards the bottom of one of those monitors for even a second, MacOS decides "hey! this is the monitor that needs to have the dock!!!" So the dock pops up and immediately covers the last thing I was looking at in my terminal or whatever. Then, when I move the mouse towards the bottom of my Macbook's screen to try and make the dock goes back there, it sometimes takes two or three attempts. Apparently other people feel the same way, too, and there are a number of articles raking in clicks for the search term "how to keep mac dock on one one screen". Of course, none of them have solutions except for "turn off spaces on each monitor", which is the worst possible solution. LanceHunter fucked around with this message at 18:13 on May 6, 2022 |

graph posted:i got a u2421e last year and now its $1000 lol. last dell wuxga this thing's a 1080 panel with built-in webcam, speakerphone, and network adapter. reviews allege the panel is a horrible hunk of poo poo, but we wouldn't recommend this to art historians or film studies people anyway. sitting side by side next to my u2713h, 75% brightness and contrast compared to the ultrasharp's 50% b&c, it's fine. yeah it's perceivably dimmer but for the sorts of work i do professionally, we're firmly in the 'who cares' category. it's less of a difference than looking at the same jpeg in an edge window vs the google chat chrome app that runs in an edge instance. it's well worth the money for what it does. personally would stick with ultrasharps though because i am a king poo poo baby that loves being able to do work i'm not supposed to do, which includes occasional video work, and the 27" qhd form factor works great for me. my boss and one of my employees both keep trying to get me on the ultrawide train but i'll probably hang with this resolution for as long as someone will sell it to me. at home though i'm on some kind of wuxga dell display from a few years back and I love it and won't give it up until it dies. pretty sure it's an ultrasharp i got from micro center as an open-box. works great for my photo editing needs. Beeftweeter posted:seriously what's the difference between thunderbolt 3 and USB 4 doesn't usb 4 include thunderbolt now? if it does, usb4 can be effectively thought of as an extension of tb3's capability, right? who would know or could tell??? real talk though: we've had a lot of dogshit USB-C docking solutions show up on our doorsteps, and I think the main issue is that they are built to a lower price and therefore suck profoundly, but also because the displayport chip options apparently don't all play nicely together with usb-c controllers in computers, especially in macs (or at least in intel macs, we haven't had many people try to approach us for support on m1 machines with external docking solutions). the old dell thunderbolt docks universally sucked poo poo on macs and pretty broadly sucked poo poo on windows machines, but the wd19tb/tbs both appear to have been stable for us on all recent stuff. but moving forward, since we know an M1 mac will run fine off this display, it seems like at least we have a go-to recommendable for people getting work done on a docked machine. the displayport link works fine, the usb hub works fine, the rj45 works fine, the speakers kind of suck but will serve fine as a videoconferencing speakerphone, which is all i have to care about for most people. this is a massive improvement over all the stupid piece of poo poo UXGOO and FLIBPBORQ $35 usb-c dongles people buy from amazon, so it is what we will spend money on here.
