Ah like the old MKBHD "screen has an aspect ratio of 18:9. Or 2:1 because I know my fractions"

- fainpul 1y agoOr just 2. I like my screen aspect ratios in decimal representation. The "wider" the image, the larger the number. Square would be 1. It makes it easy to compare ratios: for example the aspect ratio of a movie (say 2.39) to my screen (2.33) and see that I can expect a good fit. My screen is a bit "more square", so there will be slivers of black borders on top and bottom.
- oblio 1y agoTo be frank aspect ratios as the main measure are just silly. Instead of 24" screen with a 16:9 ratio they should just be sold as 53 x 30cm. Look at the silliness with folding displays where the difference in diagonal seems marginal until you open up a folding phone and realize that diagonals are just a silly way to measure things.
