   ugh. I have to install a server, and the only display I have I can use for the task is a 4k monitor.

   I hate this. my eyes are already hurting just thinking of the tiny, tiny text

     @funkylab "server" is really pushing it here. it's more "spare NUC that's getting press-ganged into acting as a server for a proof of concept"

     THIS SHOULD NOT EVER BE ALLOWED
     4K MONITORS ARE TOO MANY PIXELS

     @foone oh I've run into one weirder: we have some little field monitors around at work (ikam brand or--? I forget) where they have HDMI inputs that will accept 4K video and downscale it to whatever the small 7" or so panel actually is

     Welcome to Fly Dirt Console.
     Good luck!

     @foone I cracked up laughing when I saw it happen. Fortunately all I needed was the IP address of the machine I'd plugged it into, but out of curiosity I opened up nano and it looked hilariously sparse.
