Isn't that basically what the TRESOR proof-of-concept did?
No it doesn't.
Your math is off by 2 orders of magnitude.
Incandescents are perfectly linear
Nope, they're quite nonlinear PTC thermistors.
since its a purely resistive load.
Wrong again, see above.
Electronics 101.
Yeah, right.
For added fun (and what the parent alluded to), look up temperature vs. radiated spectrum for a (approximately) black body radiator.
Similar anecdotal experience here. 4 of the 5 Osram 23W CFLs I got back in 1993 are still "working" (in quotes as they take ages to start up and are likely well below 80% nominal light output by now).
Seems "value engineering" killed longevity somewhere around the mid-late 90s.
Who is using dimmers in their attics and closets? And... why?
Viscous cronies? So... they're really thick?
Considering the Seiki doesn't have displayport and gets driven as 3840x2160@30 over HDMI... nope.
You're thinking of the 60Hz capable Sharp/Asus/Dell/..., those do the 2x 1920x2160@60 in 60Hz mode to work around the per-stream bandwidth limit of DP1.2a
Is it even a P1?
Intel calls it "Pentium class", but looking at the core architecture (Quark Core Hardware Reference Manual, chapter 3)
The most common term is prismatic cell.
Prismatic Li-ion were used in some high capacity laptop batteries in the late 90s/early 00s but seems to have fallen out of favor.
Not quite sure why, likely worse capacity/weight compared to cylindrical and lack of economy of scale were big factors.
3-clause BSD is a proprietary license? Since when?
Dell UP2414Q. $1299 for a 24" 3840x2160 60Hz IPS (also 10bpp and wide gamut, but... meh.).
Finally a monitor for us high-DPI weirdos clinging to their preciousss IBM T221.
"This light switch caused my house to explode!"
"Huh?"
"Well, there also was that gas leak, but that wasn't a problem until I flipped that switch."
With your bare hands?!?
