This would seem more accurate to me if it said "Grandparents at 25". I'm the 25yo parent's age and for us, people were already considering whether they could afford 1 or 2 children with mortgage and childcare costs. I guess if we had the big screen TVs, cellphones stronger than computers, gaming computers, and cheap airfare around the world, many of us would have also decided parenting was much too expensive.
I already have 2 monitors (including my laptop screen because I'm primarily on laptop) but recently I tried using Google Earth on a desktop with a fast i7-13700 and a 1440p monitor and it was so immersive. If each pixel was 100m, I could see 256km, all with minimal hiccups.
It reminded me I want a big 4k Monitor for this stuff, maybe even of TV size.
I had 3 by 23 😁
Still have only 2 kids though
just bought a third yesterday...
Lucky you! What model?
Nothing fancy, some generic 2560x1440 Acer IPS
I have a 4k OLED w/ HDR for gaming or whatever my main activity is, a second 2560x1440 for background videos, but I want a vertical monitor for terminal outputs and documents. Also just more space when I'm juggling a lot of windows
At 35 I got my third!
...27" curved screen with 144Hz and HDR...
