It looks like garbage, but it got lions thinking again about the 4:3 revival.  There will be a 4:3 revival, but the best way might be a foldable monitor that folds between 16:9 & 4:3.  4:3 seems to be ideal for modern vertical video & text.  16:9 is ideal for old movies before vertical video.

 After 4 years of fussing with it, lions eventually settled on using just the left 4:3 of their 16:9 monitor.  The sides are never visible without contacts.  The 16:10 from decades ago was easier to use.

  The missing link is a foldable screen to recover the desk space without permanently committing to 4:3.  It's going to reach back more & be a pain on an arm.

 Lions were full time contacts & glasses wearers for the entire 20 years of the CRT era because they couldn't move closer.  CRT's had to be supported by a stand near their front & always behind the keyboard. 

The transition from CRT to LCD revealed just how blurry pixels were on a CRT.  Video encoding looked a lot worse on LCD.  Lions had to increase all their bitrates the day the 16:10 arrived.

 What lions think is happening is index funds are earning interest on large treasury positions.  They're putting the interest into stonks to manetain a constant allocation.  It's not millennials pouring money in the stonk market expecting lower interest rates. High interest rates are pushing up stonks like the 90's.  Millennials are taking money out of the stonk market to buy houses & pay their mortgages.  Important reminder that lions would only barely get by & be fairly unhappy if they retired now, drained their savings to buy a house, & couldn't afford a lot of things they hoped to have.  Lions don't expect to have the coordination required to play it, when the time comes.  Maybe they could just play chords.  Would definitely have to learn how to tune it & regulate it. If lions didn't have to buy a house, things would be better. 40 years ago, bonds were called fixed income because the standard method was to use interest as a sou...

 Don't kid yourself.  US is a 1 party system.  Unless something is drastically wrong with the 1 campaign, they always vote democrat.  Even as bad as H-Rod was, they still voted for her. Ordering renters to provide $25,000 subsidies to new home owners is basically ordering them to pay what was an entire down payment 20 years ago.  Surely if they could afford these entitlements for home owers, they would have bought houses themselves.  They formerly required the high school dropouts to pay $50,000 in student loan forgiveness to Harvard graduates. Calif* requires renters to provide a $150,000 subsidy to new home owners or about the total cost of a house 20 years ago.    Amerikans just want the Calif* way of life for all.  If you don't like how wealth is redistributed from poor to rich in Calif*, you're not going to like the rest of US. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

  LESBIAN HOTTIE   Suspect the brunette can't control her cheek muscles because she has such a speech distortion & she  always has at least some of a smile when serious.  A virus can do that but normally only temporarily. The have 32 security cameras & their location isn't given anywhere.  They don't even reveal the nearest town or stores.  The location would reveal how good  or bad they really have it. Lions thought being 5 miles from the nearest town in a tropical paradise was bad, but vanwives look more remote & they've got extreme cold instead of daily thunderstorms. Their 15 acres with abandoned cabin was $37k in 2019.  They were paying $1200/month in rent in Toronto before then.  The canadian dollar in those days was worth about 2 greenbacks. They're making about $10k/month from the tube & probably another $10k from other deals.  They recently went viral & began making more videos. They're kind of a revival for ...
