You may be able to get this working using PBP and 2 cables without virtual displays. This is my write up for using HiDPI@120hz for two 57” G9s on my M2 MacBook. https://www.reddit.…

I made a promise to myself a year back that my next side project would be for-profit. For this project, I've written a hyper niche web app builder for Instagram influencers to sell…

It's not something that I've tried. There was a user report at the bottom of this GitHub issue that states sidecar rotation does not work. https://github.com/jakehilborn/displaypla…

Yes. Postgres stores the checkpoint on the source database replication slot. You can configure Debezium Engine to send checkpoints to the file /dev/null to disable the default exte…

The latest code on the master branch of displayplacer supports this. Run `displayplacer "id:34686E82-0CED-DF86-AFC7-AA1A8EB5CFC0 enabled:false"` with your screen ID and it will set…

The latest code on the master branch of displayplacer supports this. Clone the repo and run `make` to build it. Run `displayplacer "id:34686E82-0CED-DF86-AFC7-AA1A8EB5CFC0 res:1440…

Trust me, I considered it lol.

I've seen a few comments mention the description now. Thank you for the feedback. I wrote displayplacer because all the other tools were GUIs and I needed something scriptable. Con…

As far as I understand, there is a low level race condition here. The order that the monitors come alive and initialize with the OS is non deterministic. This can cause the left mo…

displayplacer lets you specify all those attributes you mentioned as shell command so you can fix everything with one "click".

I placed on order for an M2 MacBook for my wife last week. I'm planning on adding native support within a few months of the laptop arriving.

What caused the SLAP tear?

Thanks for the shoutout on displayplacer!

I dealt with a case of chronic patellar tendonitis for years between ages 23 and 26. Debilitating to the point where I could not go anywhere that would require me to stand in line.…

Seitan, tempeh, lentils, and beans w/ rice are the highest protein to calorie ratio foods I eat. Sprouted seed bread, most nuts/seeds, and most vegetables are pretty high in protei…

Extremely low interest rates have cut high-yield savings account interest rates from over 2% to ~1%. Most folks would be better off with a high-yield checking account, which pay be…

I wrote an automated solution to spending requirements for high interest checking accounts. High interest checking accounts (up to 5% APR) often require a dozen or more transaction…

The accounts typically have sign up bonuses, not fees. I got $125 bonus for signing up. The catch is typically that they require usage of the bank debit card N times per month. The…

I get 5% interest on up-to a $20,000 balance in a high interest checking account. You'll see higher returns using a high interest checking as opposed to savings account if you can …

It's not an absurd statement. Deadlifts improve so much musculature in your body which resolves/prevents injury. I had a 3+ year long knee injury from running and the only remedy w…

It's pretty easy to set up, the instructions in the README show how to get the bash command you need. https://github.com/jakehilborn/displayplacer

This one's for the multi monitor devs using macOS. macOS regularly forgets my pixel perfectly aligned monitor layout. I wrote displayplacer so that I could describe and apply monit…
