AI Thread Summary
Finding a small computer monitor with a native resolution of 1920x1080 in the 18-22 inch range is challenging, as most options available are 24 inches or larger. The discussion highlights concerns about readability at higher resolutions, noting that increased resolution on smaller screens can make text and images harder to see clearly. While a 22-inch monitor at 1680x1050 is manageable, transitioning to 1920x1080 at the same size would result in smaller visual elements, complicating readability. Additionally, there is mention of the availability of 4:3 monitors in stores, although 16:9 monitors are more common in the market.

Does anyone know where I can get a small (18-22 in) computer monitor with 1920x1080 native? Most are 1680x1050.
 
Computer science news on Phys.org
A quick web scan shows 24" as the smallest 1920x1080 native.
Not sure why you would want one becase, even with very good vision, that's going to be a tough read.
Your eyes will have an issue resolving detail at that level without your nose hitting the screen.
 
My screen is already 1680x1050 at 22 inches. If I can see that, I should be able to resolve 1920x1080 at the same screen size, no?

No, as the resolution increases, for a given monitor size, the apparent size of a given font, icon, or photograph will decrease.
 
Why don't manufacturers make 16:9 monitors?
 
They do.
If you go to a store there are still 4:3 monitors available, but relatively few.
 

Thread 'MS 365 Profile Badge colour'

Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
