Fuck, I did this with a DisplayPort cable a few months ago and I have zero fucking clue where it ended up. I had to resort to HDMI for my new ultrawide, and because HDMI is lame, it only supports 1440p@100Hz. DisplayPort supports 1440p@180Hz.

After looking in all the regular places and not finding it anywhere, I just ordered another cable.

Love how the HDMI forum restricts it on Linux so you can't use its full bandwidth

I did this with a remote.

Immediately found the old one the day the new one arrived. In the same place I’d been looking for weeks…
