Scare Grail

The reason the fonts look like hot garbage in Microsoft’s Edge browser is as with MacOS Mojave entire, the fonts are anti-aliased grayscale only in Edge.

See how jaggy and blurry they are? That’s just how MacOS is going to look all over. When I have my MacBook Pro again, I will take some shots of MacOS Mojave beta to show you how horrific and crappy they look there as well.

What a fucking disappointment from Apple. Even they, like Mozilla and Microsoft, are going down the tubes. Computers are so much worse than they were 10 years ago.

Eye Hate You

Hey again ya’ll.

All I have to say about 5K is that if you aren’t using it, you hate your eyes and they hate you. There’s nothing wrong with hating your eyes I guess, but why do it if you don’t have to. Love your eyes. Respect your eyes. Give them the gift of 5K.

I can’t freakin’ wait until 8K is not $4,000, though. Then I plan to love my eyes at 8K.

For the Team

Hey ya’ll, I found out that Planar stealth-released a single-cable (Displayport 1.4) 5K monitor in the US. (Most other 5K monitors require two DP 1.2 cables and use an often-janky algo to untile and display properly.) There are no reviews at all, and no real marketing anywhere. Strange, but it’s a legit product.

It’s here.

I’m going to buy one to test it out. If I don’t like it, I will return it. This is due to the necessity of getting rid of Apple hardware and I’d like to stay with 5K if I can. If I can get it to work with Linux at 5K, that’ll be a damn fine thing.

Update: Holy fuck, it uses PDC, like the 5K iMac! I need to see this screen in person first but I think I might be in love!
