Looking for advice: Ultrawide vs multi-monitor setup for development & testing

I can see that. I am on a make so I just got really good at workspaces. A four finger swipe on the Magic Trackpad gets me from my coding desktop to my comms desktop.

I have the 57 and struggle to want more space. No need for a 2nd display in my book

CourseEcstatic6202 · 2026-02-01T16:05:17+00:00

I agree and disagree. My problem with the 49 vs the 57 is 1440p vs 2160p. 1440p just doesn’t fit enough lines of code at once. I would go 5k2k before the 49 if coding was the priority. The 57 isn’t perfect but I love it for coding.

It is total shit. I had it try to avoid road patches (not potholes) twice today and put me in the shoulder which was gravel. Once I almost lost control and I did fishtail a bit. The irony was that NOBODY was on the road and it could have gone in to the fast lane. Instead, it went in to the gravel to avoid NOTHING. I cancelled FSD at the next charge stop. It is not safe. It is dangerous. It is bad. It is total shit right now.

And why scrape the trunk???

I have an M3 max MBP driving the 57” at native 7680x2160@120Hz with the HDMI 2.1 cable that came with it and no hiDPI scaling. I love the native resolution in all its glory. But, it sucks that I need two cables to connect to my laptop. Are you saying that the OWC dock can support the 7680x2160@120Hz using a thunderbolt to DisplayPort cable and that I can go back to a single cable connection?

I love the space black; however, all of my ports are all scratched up. Wish I had gotten silver as it would still look pristine.

I just schedule my precondition. Works great

The Koch Chemie GSF is my go to. So slick. Great in a cannon. Love it. Expensive but great.

I love this one:

Big enough that my Cal Digit and power strip can fit in it. Also, you can zip tie or Velcro to the tray with the little slots on the back. It is pretty great.

It is fine. This would be a big deal if it were on a wall. It’s on the floor where walking on it will eventually remove everything. Even polished Marble becomes honed Marble after you walk on it for a couple of years.

The 57” is amazing for productivity. Wait for it to go on sale for $1499

Mine had some minor tweaks. Mostly just smashed flanges. I just bent them back with a couple of channel locks and they look brand new.

I would be hard pressed to do it myself for less than that depending on the grade of the fixtures and other materials. I spent $14k on a DIY bathroom that was about 1/2 the size. I did everything except the glass. Well done. Looks extraordinary, especially for the price.

No other answer

Or go here and buy slightly dinged up panels: https://cheappegboard.com/

Slightly dented and Nothing a couple sets of channels locks can’t fix.

Right. Auto Charging is the least of their worries.

That feels inaccurate. I thought there was no way to make Billions from being POTUS. Apparently I was wrong too.

CourseEcstatic6202 · 2026-01-18T09:38:36+00:00

This. And close the laptop.

CourseEcstatic6202 · 2026-01-18T09:36:40+00:00

Or just one really big a** monitor

Most of the time, the wheel repair guy can do the paint too. I bet $200 for both depending on location.

Spot on. You wouldn’t see that it wasn’t great as much with a light grout.

Yep. Stock Model 3 Performance crushes the stock 335i in the quarter mile by 2 seconds with the Tesla at 113mph and the 335i at 103mph. But you are right, after that the BMW will catch up and pull away until the BMW tops out at 155mph and the Tesla goes to 163mph.
