Here is a quick query when you are looking for events in CloudTrail. First, export to Athena.
Then create a query that references the table: Now you are ready for some SQL
In the example below I am getting entries from “TableName” and the service is Amazon WorkSpaces. That has a source of workspaces.amazonaws.com

If you are looking in LAX 1b:
aws ec2 describe-instance-type-offerings --location-type "availability-zone" --filters Name=location,Values=us-west-2-lax-1b --region us-west-2
Do you ever move your Chromebook place to place with a variety of display / monitor arrangements? I do. So I wanted a shortcut to the Display settings.
chrome://os-settings/display?search=display

You can also use:
chrome://os-settings/display
Whatever is faster or easier for you.
