Still kind of sad that the transflective display technology demoed in the $100 laptop project from a decade or so ago never took off.
I’m a robotics researcher. My interests include cybersecurity, repeatable & reproducible research, as well as open source robotics and rust programing.

Personally, I’ve been happy using an LG TV for a single monitor setup. I have had to switch to KDE Plasma v6 for better font rendering given its unusual OLED pixel layout, as well as for native HDR support. But it’s been nice to have a large physical font while still at default DPI. Although, I wouldn’t’t mind upgrading to 8K later when they get affordable, as the smallest 4K TVs at 42" happen to push the physical DPI down towards that of just 1440p panel.
Have you had any luck with projectors for coding? I’ve only ever used them for large mob-programming sessions, like during hackathons. I feel like the low/narrow contrast of projectors makes it hard to use for dark mode, not to mention the space real estate requirements. :P
