hey man, thanks for the upscaled version!
Man, still have to get one of those
Pretty cool design!
Haha thanks for your suggestions, I’ll look into it :)
And with CRTs, yeah, they can be pretty good. Of course, a calibrated CRT has perfect black levels, but that’s not even the best part. OLED and Plasma can do that too, after all. What I love about CRTs is the motion clarity. During motion, every display except CRTs becomes blurry. That’s the most important part for me. It makes a night and day difference for games.
I made a post about a high end CRT monitor here. This monitor can go up to 1440p or up to 160hz (not both at the same time, though). I love it.
And of course, a standard definition CRT is awesome for any pre HD console. They look awesome.
So yeah, I think we definitely lost something with the transition to LCD and OLED. I hope I didn’t get into to much detail here, once I start with talking about the greatness of CRTs, it’s hard to stop :)
Flashlights are an interesting one. I somehow ended up in !flashlight@lemmy.world and it’s definitely a unique hobby. I’m not sure if I’m willing to really join all of you yet, but reading the posts can be pretty cool.
For me, it’s probably CRTs, other display technologies and old hardware in general. It’s fun to tinker around with stuff. And playing games, be it new or old, on CRTs is what I live for.
Well yeah, that’s what I just said?
I might have to pirate a game from the Wii U though they they won’t remake for the switch:(
I don’t remember Nintendo ever remaking a Wii U game for switch, and even if they port one over, the experience is only marginally better than it used to be
Going for walks on rainy days is great. I do it almost every time it rains a lot. Enjoy!
