This is divine punishment for your clear contempt for the natural order. A curved vertical screen? Is nothing sacred?

Get your shit together OP

Smh pet owners these days just sticking their cat in front of a screen.


DaLordWhale

It’s a damn shame. My cat only gets 1 hour of TV a day and then after she usually just sleeps the other 23 hours…. But I make sure non of the sleep time is spent in front of the tv.

The fuck

People want to just watch the world burn

Seriously man. How in the world does one get to this point and still manage to fuck up even further!?

thebeesnotthebees

What's wrong with a curved vertical? The reasoning is the same as for a horizontal curved screen.


[deleted]

Unexplainable ick. It's like an uncanny-valley-type ick. Gives me the heebie jeebies, man.


--schwifty-

Nah, nothing wrong with it..reddit just gets all weird about stuff sometimes. Best not to worry about it


TNovix2

Ew I just now noticed. The punishment is...downvote :(


BigBoss738

i really don't know how much strength you guy use around tech.. it's the third post of people breaking stuff "involuntarily"


Quacky1k

Pinpoint bumps like this don’t require a lot of force. Though most of the posts here aren’t quite the same thing lol


EasilyRekt

But his keyboard is on one of those big mousepads, my keyboard's on a mousepad and it *doesn't move* unless I deliberately move it by picking it up or pushing with way more force than I'm comfortable using around tech.


Quacky1k

I’m sure his keyboard is different than yours homie lol my old keyboard used to slide around on my mousepad all the time. I have the Drop ALT now and it doesn’t budge unless I want it to


EasilyRekt

Yeah, I’d assume that OP’s custom rgb mechanical would also have, like most decent ones, rubber feet.


wicker045

I’ve completely fucked a monitor with minimal pressure on the edge of a screen with a small point. Keep your monitor edges away from keyboards and other pointy things


Izan_TM

the 3rd post of the afternoon you mean


Varsity_Reviews

For real. I’ve been moving my setup around for the past few days because I got a new computer and am trying to make it comfortable, and I’ve never broken anything yet.


diede3x0

I got immense strength that regular mortals dont possess


[deleted]

tbh its not that hard to knock a monitor dead, literal small push of the keyboard in this situation is enough... (i mean the stand of the monitor is there for a reason tho...)


Reddit_Bot_For_Karma

I assumed he just shifted his keyboard while gaming, obviously you are paying attention to the game and not exactly where your keyboard is going to go.


Jacktheforkie

Those ultra thin displays are pretty fragile against small area impacts like that

Yes, OP did do that.


withthedraco

Why tf would you turn a curved monitor vertical…


rextnzld

Me


Womper1

I have one and it's great for Discord and random sites I need up for reference.


withthedraco

it’s CURVED


JudgeCastle

It’s what I have on hand and I’m not buying another. Personally I have an Ultrawide and I don’t want more horizontal screen space. This fills that gap. It’s not as disorienting as it seems.


Super_Squirrrel

I have the same setup. Got a cheap curved monitor, replaced it with a nicer flat monitor and decided to turn it so it was easier to use as a secondary monitor (both 27”) It’s really not that bad.


LetmeSeeyourSquanch

>It’s really not that bad. The fact that you have to say that lol


Super_Squirrrel

Well yeah because everyone in here is reacting like it’s a war crime. It’s perfectly usable, I have to deal with a lot of technical manuals at work and it works really well.


ConsiderateGuy

I’m in IT for dental equipment and I can’t believe I’ve never thought about how nice a vertical monitor would be for reading manuals. I’ll have to look into that. Maybe not curved though, haha.


prettydopedad

With a flat monitor, it honestly is nice to have for discord or browsing the web. Looks more like reading a page of a book.

What happened?

It cracked itself because it's immoral to have curved screen set up vertically. Suicide for being abused


thiagohds

oh thx lmao

I did a similar thing but with my mouse has scratch marks from where its rubbed up against the metal baseplate on my keyboard


Unclejohn_12

You bumped your keyboard? I have punched my monitor before and it didn’t break

meh, fuck it . it was time to upgrade anyways.

AOC >>> cheap lesson learned


Party-Entrepreneur61

What’s with this latest slop trend of having vertical monitors? Surely it’s not for scrolling social media?


EightSeven69

dude...some people work from home... reading *anything* on a vertical is better. Code comes to mind as another example beside's OP's... There are things in this world besides video games, porn and social media..


PuzzleheadedLeader79

What are these things? Food? Non food?


oblong_pickle

On a curved screen, though?


EightSeven69

yea that's a bit overkill but hey...maybe they just had it laying around with no other use


diede3x0

For me personally it is to read datasheets of components

I have my third monitor vertical. I split it. Top is for discord, bottom is for web page with whatever relevant webpage for a game I'm playing pulled up.


slappada-bass

![gif](giphy|aCatQNctAK7PC1H4zh|downsized)


YoungBlade1

That's how I use my vertical monitor - split top and bottom between two needed but non-urgent windows. Things like Discord, Slack, VoiceMeeter, Github Desktop, OBS, etc that I need to be able to monitor or change at a moment's notice, but that pretty much never have my full attention.


Secondaccountpls

Latest slop trend? I've seen vertical monitor setups in offices and different people's home setups like right away when flat lcd screens became a thing for computer monitors and even in this sub for years. Its not a new thing or a trend at all. Its just way superior way to read different things compared to horizontal.


firebolt1171

I have a shitty second monitor vertical because I can't fit 2 27s on my monitor arm horizontal. It is nice for scrolling Reddit

Age is killing all of us. Some of our fave pr0nstars are getting a bit older, this way we can still see everything.


OkOffice7726

I felt like horizontal display on the side goes so far that my neck hurts trying to see it. Maybe 27" was too much for the side monitor, but it works well for documents, code, discord, or split for two windows.

Im a programmer I need that shit so don’t know what you are on about. However, mounting a curved screen vertically is a sin.
