I still have a month to go before 40; I'll see which group I belong to then. However, right now, I can't tolerate screens with lower PPI than Retina.

- bartvk 5y agoSo what monitor do you use then?
- copperx 5y agoA 24" 4k Dell monitor. Not perfect, because it has a moire pattern on white backgrounds because of the anti reflection coating.
- samatman 5y agoSo this part is pure trigonometry: how much further does a monitor like this have to sit on your desk, to have the same pixels-per-steradian as a 4k 27"? Yeah. That's what I mean. Just a little further away, same pixel density. It's nice.
- copperx 5y agoOn the other hand, brightness decreases 1/distance^2. You would need a brighter panel to achieve the same brightness at a farther distance.
- bartvk 5y agoAh interesting, thanks! On which "virtual resolution" do you set it? Or simply at 2X?
