Came to read about gaming on #FreeBSD in the @vermaden blog, but fell through the links and now I'm changing fonts and installing xlock, lol 
BTW., IBM Plex Mono for #Emacs and #xterm is nice
(1st screenshot — before, with DejaVu Sans Mono and DejaVu Serif. 2nd screenshot — after, with IBM Plex Mono and Trebuchet MS).

Monitor recommendations?
current 42" curved TV/monitor is fritzing, gonna open it up in a few min, I like the 4096x2160 screen real estate
if it's not reliable, then I need to replace it :(
not a gamer, so looking for good xterm text readability, firefox, and video replay support on debian
OLED is no longer 3x pricing. Is it worth the current premium?
Do I want to care about FreeSync for video playback and conf calls?

So still on my #OpenBSD adventure and although I missed images in the terminal be it sixel in xterm or the kitty protocol in kitty, I've decided to stick with good old #Xterm . Also on my #FreeBSD daily driver I'm used to such luxuries as icons in the terminal like font awesome or nerd fonts but even though I could have used alacritty or kitty to achieve this I have decided to for go them. After all what do they do other make it look pretty ? I don't get any other functionality from them and they can easily be replaced with text. You might have noticed too that although I'm a #Wayland chic on my #ThinkPad I've decided to be all nostalgic and stick with Xorg on OpenBSD. I haven't yet settled on a window manager be it tiling or stacking but #HerbstluftWM and #Openbox are in my sights although I'm still using the default #Fvwm right now. I have my Qutebrowser setup and aerc for my email. Printing via cups and xsane for scanning. Looking into nsxiv for an image viewer as the OpenBSD port of imv is well out of date. Yes I'm having to make small changes but once I'm finished this wee Dell Optiplex 3080 tower will be perfect for daily driving OpenBSD and I'm looking forward to learning lots more. #RunBSD
Gave up on #OpenBSD for now as it's too locked down for my liking and I was really wanting to setup #Xorg on the freebie Dell Optiplex 3080 Tower and use #Xterm as my terminal with #Sixel support. So I've installed #FreeBSD and got Xterm running with Sixel support ( graphics in the terminal ). Who's a happy chic that's feeling all nostalgic right now ? That's right moi ! #RunBSD
