Alt text:Twitter post by Daniel Feldman (@d_feldman): Linux is the only major operating system to support diagonal mode (credit [Twitter] @xssfox). Image shows an untrawide monitor rotated about 45 degrees, with a horizontal IDE window taking up a bottom triangle. A web browser and settings menu above it are organized creating a window shape almost like a stepped pyramid.

What if your monitor has a bullet hole you want to avoid looking at?

Why does your monitor have a bullet hole?

Why do you ask so many questions? ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ

Because then words like "evidence" and "premeditated" get thrown around.

Because asking and answering too many questions was exactly how they ended up with a bullet hole in their monitor.

I came back to my office after the new year's break and a stray bullet, from I'm assuming celebratory gunfire, was shot through the wall and hit my screen. Admittedly it wasn't a hole and the screen was totally unusable after, but I'll be a close n=1.

A good use case for American k-12 IT admins

A bullet hole would be slightly less annoying than the one green dead pixel I have at work.
