I have an adapter on another CRT that does HDMI to coax that I use to stream old SD format shows from a Roku box and it works amazingly well! It even has a little remote you can use to resize the picture!

That’s probably a good idea! I’ve heard of people getting electrocuted pretty badly from these old CRTs!
I think I actually have a tool for discharging a CRT that came with a tool kit around here somewhere, but yeah I would definitely want to study up on it a lot first!
The tape I put in to test it is probably from 1993 and not in the best shape but I didn’t want to risk one of my good tapes if it decided to eat it lol
I will look up Pi 3 thanks!
While we’re at it why not look for a way to force horses to only eat rare steak? I’m sure we can find a healthy way to do it if we try hard enough!
What do you mean? All I suggested was that disagreements could be settled with an online consent form.
There’s a very simple solution to all of this. Just require the user upload a form showing that their dog or cat consented to being converted to veganism in defiance of their very nature 👍
I suspect a lot of people on here don’t like the idea of monetizing Lemmy since that kind of defeats the whole purpose of Lemmy. It sounds more like something people would do on Reddit or Instagram
So… Basically turning your Lemmy account into a half-assed Patreon then? Pass.
I’m going to say Mario 64 just because it was a really good game that I enjoyed back in 96 and I’ve never heard of Nights Into Dreams until this post right now lol
Edit: after looking up the game I’m going to say a LOT of people probably don’t know Night Into Dreams because it was released for Sega Saturn and not that many people actually bought that system at the time.
That’s weird I just looked the place up and they sell all kinds of beer there lol
Probably it was the first time as a young adult that I found myself out of money and realized no one was going to give me any more. It’s kind of a jarring experience the first time you realize you have $50 left in your account, you don’t get paid again for another week, and mom and dad can’t help you.
I’m honestly glad it happen to me sooner than later, because it taught me a lot about how to be resourceful, how to budget more carefully, and that as a grown adult I should really be able to handle these things on my own.
No. Why would I?
The term “retro” itself doesn’t even really mean “old”, it just means something is imitating the style of something older from 20 or 30 years ago. Just look at clothing for instance, “retro style” clothes could have been designed yesterday as long as they emulate an older style. *Vintage" clothes would be actual old clothes that were produced a long time ago
The hardest thing for me was the instant gratification. If I was feeling bored or lonely I’d just go on there and post any old bullshit just because I knew it would get an immediate response. I’ve been off Facebook for nearly 8 years now and I don’t miss it at all anymore though lol
If I didn’t make time to do anything besides work and sleep like that I would literally go insane after about 2 weeks
Guitarist/cross stitcher, with a side job as a professional TV watcher lol
“what the hell’s the point of a diamond if no slaves died to get it and it costs less than a starter home? Now that any one of you disgusting peasants can own one its WORTHLESS!!!”
-some asshole who works for DeBeers presumably
Hey man, one day I’ll have (checks folder) uh… 5 years of free time to look through all this stuff! p-probably… 😰
If we want to get pedantic here it didn’t technically “shatter”, it just broke cleanly in half… at least that’s what they’ll say when you try to return it lol
