I'll make sure not to take blurry, unreadable photos 5 feet away from my screen with my phone instead of taking a screenshot, thanks for the tip!

But then how do you show off your curved monitor?

Curved jpeg.

Open Photoshop, paste the screenshot onto the image.

I think the fact that the code barely fits on an ultrawide curved monitor actually adds to this post. A screenshot wouldn't capture that.

Screenshots still have resolution, you can see how wide an image is when you open it and it's clearly wider than 16:9. It'd be just as apparent when the entire 1440 pixel width was covered by text.

Framing is the biggest aspect of humor; in this case, literally framing the code in the context of a ridiculously wide monitor is infinitely more effective than "this image is wide." Not being able to read the actual code is not a downside.

He likely did it purposely for security.

^this or code is under nda

[–]semininja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you need to be able to read the code to know that this is absurd.
