So the native resolution for this 14inch laptop (ThinkPad) is 1920x1080.

This is way too fucking high. Text looks like a font size 6 in print.

So I turn it down to 1600x900 and a few others and everything's blurry.

How can I have a sharp/crisp image without everything being so tiny?

Set back the 1920x1080 and adjust the interface scaling (high DPI) options. In your case ~125% should be fine.
>>
Use larger fonts?

But there isn't a global setting for this. I can make Chrome zoom in 150%, and increase font size in terminal to 20px etc. but what about everything else?

It's not just the fonts. The menus and icons are small too.

Are you using a desktop environment or just a window manager?
>>
>>54913745
there is, use GNOME

I don't know which DE you are using and if you are using one at all, but the major ones like Gnome & KDE definitely have such options under display settings. If it's really unavailable on your system, just lurk how to adjust interface scale with configuration files.

awesome takes kindly to xorg dpi settings (for the most part)
>>
>>54913653
you could use a DE with proper resolution scalling
>>
>>54913653
just put it in 1600x900 then
>>
>>54913745
.Xdefaults
You can set the dpi.

this is why I didn't get the 1400x1050 of my t43

fuck that ; fat pixels = waifu
