cringe. go be autistic somewhere else

I bet the owner's a fucking cum slut

>go be autistic somewhere else
No where else puts up with me.

I wish.
All I do is stay in my flat all day.

It's really pink plastic or just spray painted?

Fronts plastic but the body is sprayed.

Went and switched out my CRTs to later era models tonight... and then my Mac’s Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter decided to die on me. The cabling is still a work in progress right now, but am hoping to have a picture of everything displaying an image within a few days.

Also, can anyone vouch for what to look out for for a 2012 Mac Mini? My understanding is that it was the last model year that was upgradable, and my current Mac has been getting a bit rickety lately.

Can't help you with anything apple outside of powerpc.
Sorry.
Take good care of them screens.
Remember that for all of time they will never be made again.
You may grow old with them and they become dead rare.

I cant open your image fully.
It wont load and wont download.
The fuck is this bullshit

7" & 14" PVMs?
Models?

You got some serious issues dude, 1 thing is to have a pink case.
But writing that kinda shit for attention is another thing.
You should go outside, find some new friends, and realise you dont need validation from the internet.
Thank you.
But it looks comfy, you faggot.

Hey mate. Just wanted to let you know it’s not the pink that makes everyone think you’re a faggot.

This station is still gay as aids.

>7" & 14" PVMs?
14" & 20". They're a 14L5 and 20L5 respectively.

If I had a more proper desk, I'd have the 80s era monitors I moved out of there as well, but with only so much space around, it's better to minimize the number of boxes needed for scaling and scan conversion to share across everything.

Whenever I find that white MSX I've been looking out for, I'll prep the two that used to be there for a more vintage /bst/ photo.

I never got this meme. wtf is the point of it and why did/do normies love it so much.

My shitty poster or your phoneposting?
Stay mad.
I don't m8 I just like pissing everyone off with it.
If I wanted validation i'd've forked out a fortune for a model M, some shitty audiophool speakers and some coloured tights.
It is well comfy.
I hated it at the time and I still do.
It brightens up the room and winds up the anons for just £1 in a charity shop.

I'm not an old fuck so I don't understand why people care about CRTs. The only things I've heard said about them is they give you eye cancer and have weird lines that distort the image and they're the best shit ever. Please explain.

it's vaporwave

What isn't appealing about scanlines and an early death?

Stupidly high resolutions
Vivid colours

how do you afford the power bill

>do your eyes hurt more when all those screens are on our when you see your electricity bill?
it's not that bad.

It's two adjacent keyboards. Redragon Vara and Kumara. I bought the Kumara originally to use with a Raspberry Pi, but on the main system having two keyboards lets me use one with each mouse focus. So I can, for example, use the left mouse/KB to pull up a video or whatever on another screen without taking the right mouse/KB focus off a game or something. Or if I unify the focus then it's just more hand positions available for typing which can be good for ergonomics.

I know the text in your pic is a years-old meme, but just wanted to say that 'jealous' should be replaced with 'envious'. Often misused, but jealousy is worrying you're gonna lose your friend because he's hanging out with someone else all the time. Envy is wishing you had your friend's nice car, or to follow the previous example, wishing you could be friend's with the new guy your friend hangs out with.

Looks like Adam Jensen is trying to escape that virgin room kek.

I spent many, many years with much smaller rooms & sharing with housemates, so I know that feel - just know that one day it gets better :3

I found one in a skip back in... 2007/08 I think. Sharpest CRT I ever used.

nice.

is Adam Jensen, the virgin is trying to escape himself.

I got a 22" one and it ran at 2560x2048 crystal clear.

Would you mind sharing that wallpaper pls?

I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THAT TUBE SHIT SCREENSAVER
That was awesome

they are not actually radioactive, the phospor emits some x-rays when it is being lit and they emit lots of otherwise harmless electromagnetic radiation, but back in the '60s there was a recall on GE televisions because they actually were radioactive.
theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2018/09/when-televisions-were-radioactive/570916/
Since then, better phosphor and glass make the leakage in a modern CRT negligible. Any CRT made after 1980 is probably several orders safer than going to the doctor and just standing beside the x-ray machine.

You gonna get rated OP.

first time posting, am not good at taking pictures, just taking a break from working at home (MSP on the west coast, but I'm up early doing help desk for clients on the east coast, yay). Lighting isn't usually this bright, just doing it for the picture

And for gaming at 1280x1024 or whatever your 2006 card could push, they'd do some insane refresh rate. I 'upgraded' to a IBM P275 when the Mitsu's ghosting issue got worse (found it in a skip, so that wasn't surprising) & the image was probably no better, but the flat screen surface was nice.

It's a stream.

Why does /bst/ need more than 1 monitor?

Attached: jeff dean single monitor.jpg (1200x801, 208K)

Because I'm doing more than one thing. I wouldn't need more than one monitor for two text editors either.

Further confirms multiple monitors are band-aids for untreated ADHD

What window manager is he using?

Unity

>Stupidly high resolutions
For real? In my experience they're horrible in that regard. You can't look closely at them or you'll start seeing the red green and blue instead of whatever the pixel was supposed to show. Small text looks like a blurry mess too.

I don't need a good memory because that's what the second monitor is for.

What the fuck

I don't play online, except for Star Citizen.

I'm leery of buying games that are still in alpha. Is it any good?

I basically just preordered the offline game and only could do that by buying a basic package that includes an online starter pack, so I tried it.

It's atrocious how much money is being shoveled into the game on a _daily_ basis, yet it still feels like an alpha. It's at 173 million dollars or something.

I've got an eerie SWTOR vibe about the whole game, as in "development being pumped full of money but the result won't be up to expectations".

It looks like its got a lot of potential, hopefully it pans out for the amount of dough thats being shoved down their throats. I mostly play Elite Dangerous and just recently bought a new HOTAS set up to further the immersion.

Had to photoshop to fix how dark it was, so light was fucking blinding

Attached: Untitled1_0.png (2048x1536, 2.23M)

It's pretty much guaranteed at this point that some people won't see the expected amount of features, scale or quality, the developers of this game spent a sizable amount of that truckload of money on learning how to code what they promised the first place.

I won't be disappointed because I'm not setting any expectations, I'm just waiting for the game to finish. Until then it's pretty much impossible to play anyway, because you need a beast to get decent FPS, optimization won't be a priority until they finished implementing the content.

Then there's the issue of the release date. CD Projekt Red received a large chunk of Cyberpunk 2077's budget from the polish government for which they had to sign a contract that had a deadline. The game must be released by June 2019. The closer Star Citizen approaches this date, the more likely it is that it will be overshadowed by Cyberpunk 2077 and the launch will be a huge fail.

So they better hurry the fuck up and finish sooner.

Next time use a layer mask to exclude your screen.

That would have been smarter, my photoshop abilities are basically just face shops

Then easy mode:
use irfanview (not just for this picture, as your default image viewer)
press shift+u
done

Specs of that pink machine?

Oh fug I have the same closet!
