e-ink seems to be the last bastion of reflective screens so i hope some day i can get a nice e-ink monitor or laptop screen (ha, good luck getting that for a laptop that isn't trash)

@[email protected] the patents on eink expired, so now there's all sorts of cool looking devices coming out of china

you can literally get a 20" eink monitor that attaches via hdmi. but unfortunately the larger devices are very expensive ($500 or more)

@jiub i dont want large, anything under $200 that's decent?
and preferably DVI or displayport rather than HDMI but i'll take HDMI if i must

@[email protected] probably not, best i could find in a quick search is a 10.8" display for $146 https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256809401626221.html

but it's 16:9

@jiub :(
i hate 16:9 so much

@[email protected] yeah same

i've resigned myself to using it but it really is suboptimal for anything other than watching videos full screen

@jiub i have only one machine in my house with a 16:9 screen and it's certainly my least used laptop (as evidenced by the fact it's the only one with a battery that still works)
