Anon discovers his hidden superiority

Wouldnt this be the reverse, with the prey animal only being able to see a 4:3 with both eyes?

Screens don't require 3d vision
No, they see more of the sides to detect predators. Predators eyes are forward, narrow cone of vision
- I wouldn't call it narrow. It's almost 180 degrees. More than enough for a 16x9 monitor
Agreed- the comparison is missing the blind spot in the middle.
That's how I read it. If a narrow screen helps you see the details, it stands to reason that the high resolution part of your vision is narrower. The diagram is pointing to the prey to want a narrow monitor to fit where their vision is best.

I mean, it's not, but do you King.

If the screen is inside your field of view, youre not losing detail using a 16:9 monitor.

You do lose details in the sense of how much attention everything on screen gets. When looking at something, you don't process everything in your FoV equally - for example you don't notice lower resolutions outside your focus area.

If you're not gaming on 9:16 you're not a true gamer

I game on 9:21. I'm seeing every damn cloud in the sky and every blade of grass down to my feet.
- I prefer 16:10 but rotated 22°
True

Maybe just try switching to a 4:3 resolution before investing in an entire monitor.

Please take this, I'll even pay for shipping if you need it shipped€
One of the smaller investments...

Where in the fresh hell does one even get a 4:3 screen these days?

I just took a 16x9 and hacked the sides off with a sawsall. It doesn't work now, but I still feel superior.
- Attaboy show em who's boss
Thrift stores
The second hand market. I don't think many of them will even be 1080p or 60Hz, and i'm pretty sure you can forget about 4k
I have one listed on craigslist right now, for free because it's broken. No takers.
- I used to have a CRT screen that was 1600x1200 @60hz, so high resolution ones do exist.
just get a 16:9 and play with the display settings to disable the edges

Should be flipped, compare the "seen by both eyes" regions.

Counter-Strike moment

I wish 4:3 was still a thing on laptops.

I want 3:2
- There are 3:2 laptops like the Framework and Huawei matebook x pro. But 3:2 is still quite far from 4:3
- I've used one briefly, it was fantastic. If only Microsoft's Surface wasn't the biggest player in the 3:2 market.
- I want 1:1.
  Instagram life.
The newer Lenovo X1 is damn near 4:3, I think mine's 1900x1200
- I guess 1920x1200. The equivalent in 4:3 would be 1920x1440, not really close.

4:3 is the "both eyes" span of the prey, 16:9 the predator. If you're doing better with 4:3, you might not be the kind of "GOAT" you want to be.

Just get a smaller screen or sit a bit further then

Your cornea doesn't end inside your skull dude. Your eye can only see out from the transparent part of your eye...
Is there enough light to "see" it, as in is it visible?
Sounds wild, got source?
