it's true, the columbine kids attempted to blow up the school with propane tanks but found that after shooting them they absolutely refused to explode and gave up

that and river water is free irrigation on its own assuming the ground isn't ridiculously resistant to absorbing moisture

mine don't stretch like that is it broken

actually they were/are doing it because nintendo doesn't provide a small enough card. they only had 64gb minimum for sw2 up until recently so any game smaller was wasting upwards of 60gb worth of cart for nothing. nintendo saw this was an issue especially with the backlash sony was receiving and has been issuing smaller cartridges now, so hopefully this situation will improve

i can see why chris but what do you have against the adam pin dawg

i made a poor choice so im gonna bum my poor choice off on some other poor sap

always looking for you in these threads lmao

yeah that's true, and some of them came pre-aligned but still had alignment issues because that only meant you had to use a specific screen size at a fixed distance lol

something i find neat are projectors that use three monochrome tubes blown up, considering you get both the benefits of color and monochrome tvs, but of course they have their own unique downsides namely color reproduction

not too rare but definitely uncommon and something badass to have it looks awesome man

clearly an engine failure just throw the whole thing out you can't find those no more mane

the real dark magic are the microscopically precise little silicon wafers that drive the devices we're communicating on nowadays... you can find plenty of videos online that explain how a CRT works down to every component, and if you don't know how those work there's even more about how things like caps work

maybe just the world i live in then, i had luck with getting multiple small sets entirely free (monitors and tvs) at sub 15". it was definitely a purely observational thing for me to say, from my perspective, i don't have anything besides experience to back that one up.

couldn't agree more for a 4:3 crt 27 inches is the meta size in my opinion, still great a few feet away and stellar from across the room

it's also much much easier to get your hands on a nice 13/14 incher nowadays than it is the 27+ unfortunately, it used to be the opposite is the funny thing. i've told this story many times but a guy almost paid me $20 to take his nearly 40 inch (i believe it was 38?) trinitron but it was so humongous and at the time i underestimated the size and couldn't take it. it was such an inconvenience to him due to it taking up half a room in his house that he wanted to pay me to get rid of it

my HD CRT is my main TV, and i would go absolutely nuts if it was smaller than the 30 inches it is. this works if you like CRTs as more of a cute gaming novelty here and there, but for me they are a lifestyle

either jobless or don't work at an office, i'm gen z and dropped ALL desk gaming within a few months of getting an office job and never looked back. i cannot imagine coming home from a 7.5 hour shift of sitting on my ass at a desk to sit on my ass at a desk for even longer

i'd be willing to drop 50 or 60 on this, mainly because i like the shell, as majority of crt monitors are a pretty nasty beige color

i used a monitor running at 768 on macos to work on my project from time to time, it's really not that hard if you don't multitask like a weirdo... macos having workspaces as a main feature helps. the only time i could see it being a pain is when im doing my work for my job, where i see a lot of wide spreadsheets, and that's mainly the aspect ratio

have you tried shifting into neutral?
