@rcadden ehhhhhhhhh maybe if i get desperate. lots of clowns on there (though i did sell an old TV that way a couple years ago) — PolitiTweet.org

responsibly getting rid of a giant monitor is such a huge PITA, i’m gonna be stuck with this thing forever — PolitiTweet.org

related… does anyone want to buy this 49-inch super ultra wide i bought three months ago from me? it does the fast hertz thing and is good for gamers but i’ve yet to actually plug it into a Windows PC and play a game on it — PolitiTweet.org

@acab_steve @Silellak @tomwarren i disagree there, 120Hz is much more noticeable to me on touch screens where i’m more likely to be reading something as I’m scrolling. i barely notice it on my MacBook Pro though. — PolitiTweet.org

@tomwarren Apple prioritizes pixel perfect resolutions over refresh rates, particularly for displays it markets to graphic designers etc. 5K just matters more to them than 120Hz. — PolitiTweet.org

@345triangle yeah i primarily use a magic trackpad to the left of my keyboard. but there’s something about the precise pointing i get with a mouse that doesn’t quite feel the same on the trackpad. — PolitiTweet.org

@345triangle my main issue with the Studio Display is i wish it was 30”. 27 is kinda small! and uh, buying two is def not a great value for me — PolitiTweet.org

swiping on this to scroll up and down beats using a scroll wheel, sorry haters — PolitiTweet.org

@345triangle i’ve heard the iMac 24 speakers and they are certainly good enough for me, so i’m pretty confident the speakers on it will be fine (plus I have lots of headphone options) — PolitiTweet.org

using my old (AA-powered!) Magic Mouse today and just thinking about how great it would be to have this gesture swiping interface on a mouse that was actually comfortable to hold and didn’t cause strain in my forearm — PolitiTweet.org

@marcin_skok ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ would be a little odd so close to the release of this one. — PolitiTweet.org

i think the era of my try-hard mirrorless-camera-as-webcam set up is coming to an end — PolitiTweet.org

@nedwards the heated seats in my car still work too, 10 years later — PolitiTweet.org

@gtfsheff OR you get multiple angles in every video call, be your own twitch streamer 🙃 — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@nedwards i’m not terribly worried about a webcam or speakers breaking on a thing that doesn’t move though? USB ports would be the main concern, since they would likely see the most regular action — PolitiTweet.org

@imPatrickT yeah i deal with those headaches every day, would love for them to go away — PolitiTweet.org

i’m just looking at all the crap on my desk i could get rid of if they were all integrated into my display — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

there’s been a lot of fair criticism about the Studio Display’s value per dollar, but I gotta say, there’s something appealing about a high-end display that includes a good webcam, good mic, and good speakers all in one package that i can just plug into my laptop. — PolitiTweet.org

@edzitron i’m so old — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@edzitron that would be news to me! everyone called us “new media” my entire career — PolitiTweet.org

@edzitron i don’t have any of those jobs! — PolitiTweet.org

@CamBunton @davidj i take it back, this mouse rules just let me get some ice for my forearm, brb — PolitiTweet.org

@jlgolson @davidj yup — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@davidj @CamBunton just broke out my old AA powered one to feel alive — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@davidj my forearm feels tense just thinking about using it — PolitiTweet.org

dan seifert @dcseifert

@davidj it’s perhaps the most uncomfortable mouse ever designed. a real toss up between that and the original iMac hockey puck — PolitiTweet.org
