What's the point of 24 inch 4k displays?
How the fuck are you supposed to read anything?

I have a 1080p 24 inch monitor and I can clearly see the pixels due to my extremely good sight. These types of monitors are marketed towards people like me I guess

No you can't. You can't hear over 20KHz either.

You are supposed to increase scaling od everything so instead of using subpixel rendering for font rendering you can use actual pixels, which are more densely packed.

I don't know if you can set scaling of a tty, so that would be a pain in the ass to do anything

If you're close enough you can see pixels. I guess 4k screens are marketed towards retards like >>52219966

Maybe if scaling weren't so shit this wouldn't be a problem.

Not even him, but take your almost certainly high PPI smartphone out, load a page on it and your computer's screen, place the phone up to the screen and zoom the text on your phone to the same size on both displays. If you can't see a very clear difference then you literally have vision problems.

I fail to see how this is so hilarious, I have 20/10 vision so I'm able to see more detailed. You'd see the pixels on a 540p screen too.
>>
>>52219966
that's nothing, I can see the pixels in real life

/g/ is full of people who don't have a clue what-so-ever. Look at the SSD thread that's up right now.
>>
>>52219932
so you can run 4:1 scaling (the only acceptable scaling) and have a retinaâ„¢ display
>>
>>52220088
There's a difference between perceiving a higher visual quality and being able to pick out individual pixels.

Which you could do if the screen were large enough and/or you got close enough to it.
