I'm curious how that ZigBee graph was generated. Would be really cool to see under the hood of the network my Hues have formed. He mentions a "ConBee II sniffer". I skimmed Google for ConBee II, and indeed it's a ZigBee gateway, but I couldn't find any explicit sniffer functionality?

It bothers me to no end that UPS's are rarely specified by their Energy capacity (e.g. Amp-Hours or Watt-Hours); only the maximum Power. Often times the Energy capacity isn't even specified anywhere obvious; you have to dig to find it. Bonkers.

Having gone Ultrawide, I regret it. It sounds good on paper, but it has proven to be far more hassle than it's worth. The problem is: if you tile windows into two halves, they're a little too big; if you tile into thirds, they're a little too small.
A third is fine for watching a video on the side, or working on a terminal. But it's too cramped for code.
Plus if you split it in halves, you end up moving your eyes and/or head a _lot_ to look from the left half to the right half. Remember, you're going to be at this screen for 8+ hours a day. The last thing you want is more mileage on your eyes and neck.
On a regular monitor, half a screen-width is "just right" as Goldilocks would say. So between Ultrawide versus two or three regular monitors, I'd rather go back to regular monitors.
I also thought it would be great for gaming, and to be fair it does deliver. The view in Subnautica is amazing! But the extra FoV and pixels are _expensive_, and one would need to account for that by pouring more money into their GPU. Realistically, I would rather have spent more money on upping my FPS than my FOV.
That said, any movies shot in ultrawide ratios look great on it...
