@marcoarment I’ve been holding off on buying a Pro Display XDR for 2 years, hoping for a gen 2. Just bought one on eBay for ~$3k, instead of the Studio Display XDR. 6K or bust.

These are pricy, but hardwire power on for the smart bulbs and can communicate directly with Hue bulbs via Zigbee binding for super-fast speed.
I’ve been using Hue’s in wall modules, have one of these on order and hoping it performs better. Additionally, if you’re a fan of auto-CT adjustments and use Home Assistant, you may be a fan of circadian lighting: https://github.com/claytonjn/hass-circadian_lighting. It maps CT to a gradual curve of micro-adjustments based on the sun

Rob Napier - TIL:AI. Thoughts on AI
I use AI a lot for work, pretty much all day every day. I use coding assistants and custom agents I’ve built. I use AI to help code review changes, dig into bugs, and keep track of my projects. I’ve found lots of things it’s very helpful with, and lots of things it’s terrible at. If there’s one thing I have definitely learned: it does not work the way I imagined.
@christianselig @b3ll In US, but I only saw a single person on the microcenter discord snag a 5090 FE via Best Buy. I managed to get one in cart, but sold out before I could finish.

@caseyliss PoE powered. Cool, but can only buy through “installers” 🤢
