THIS KILLS THE LCDFAGS

>trinitron
I bet you faggots wouldn't even talk about CRTs if you actually put up with the shit people actually used instead of using sets that originally cost anywhere from $500 to several grand when new

My CRTs all are dead right now, with the exception of a TV

Really? I could have sword there were some companies making new shit. Must have just been old core components in a new plastic housing.

Oled monitors are already a thing. 4K oled TVs make for an interesting value option as well. The obvious unfortunate problem with CRT is the size of the phosphors which limit how crystal clear your resolutions will be (ie 4K will look like ass on a CRT monitor meant for 768p.

AMDs Navi RIS 78% scale 4K will make an interesting use case for 4K gaming now.

There is not a single reason for that Alienware to exist when LG's OLEDs exist that are the same panels and do all the same thing
I guess duping PCMR autist types is a good reason for existing

I had a perfectly working 17" CRT and my parents threw it away because it's the "ugly old screen that nobody uses anymore".

If it doesn't have "smart features" it's worth the premium.

You're absolutely correct, holy shit.

3 grand more is a lot desu.

Doesn't matter how low you go the backlight will still haunt you.

>The inclusion of basically a built in streaming stick is enough for someone to spend an extra several grand on something else that doesn't have it
Really proving my point here

B8 has 120hz but can't do full 4k 120hz, but the C9 can

>turn the brightness down
Congratulations. Now the backlight glow is dimmer. So is the picture.

My fucking lcd screen is too fucking bright, huring my eyes right now, cant even turn this shit down.

It probably can but LG crippled it with the HDMI 2.0. Good catch tho, that 120Hz spec is a real curve ball.

When is this meme going to die?
Unfortunately, I'm willing to believe there's people that actually believe this kind of stuff, I mean, there's people out there that still think a microwave will give them cancer.

C9 has HDMI 2.1 which can do it, being it is 48Gbps
Problem is, no HDMI 2.1 source exists, save for an active adapter realtek is making

I don't see the problem here. If anything you should be abusing the market right now.

>Low-key posting butter smooth 480p 30fps tweet
Cheeky, John

>Low-key
When did this retarded idiom became so popular?

You know nothing john snow also weird flex but OK.

I'm sorry, I forgot I'm on the God forsaken Jow Forums board. I don't know what I expected.

CRTs are for people who have never had to move i.e. basement dwellers.

As a long time lover of CRT's I can tell you with certainty they have produced means to dilute the light from LCD and LED displays.
They'll just NEVER be as sexy as Pic Related...
Not even memeing RN.

do you even lift?

CRT's are for non-poor people.

I remember the obvious downgrade when we bought the first LCD at home
A 32 inches 720p Samsung beauty, that displayed the tv SD signal like literal crap
My parents couldn't believe their eyes

Now we are entering a ruse era with 720p oled displays on smartphones, a huge downgrade but muh blacks

Basically there's an undiscussed boomer vs zoomer war going on right now. You just landed in the crossfire without even knowing it fellow doomer/bloomer.

>huge downgrade
in what way? Oled offers actual 100,000+ contrast ratios AND very fast response times.

Yeah but they are putting those displays on medium range phones, but downgrading the resolution
The mi a3 having a 720p display is a crime against humanity

you can blame old people. they perpetuate urban myths that started when they were younger

it was actually in issue in the '60s, a few models from one particular brand had particularly bad shielding and basically threw x-rays into the spot where children were most likely to sit.
X-rays are not the same as alpha, beta, and gamma radiation from radioactive substances and produced no radionuclides, but long exposure to them is generally not good.

it's not radioactive like Chernobyl, it's radioactive like your doctor's office.

>The inclusion of basically a built in streaming stick is enough for someone to spend an extra several grand on something else that doesn't have it
Awkward way to phrase it, but no, that's not quite right.
Smart TVs have tracking features that cannot be disabled, many have ads in their menus that also cannot be disabled, they're stuffed full of anti-features that worsen the user experience in the name of increased profit.

Don't fucking connect them to the internet
It isn't hard

nope, you're never ever going to find new tubes being made. Just refurbs, maybe they'll make replacement PCBs since that stuff is modular and scalable, but no new tubes. Those are all just refurbs in india and shit.

At least consumer CRT TVs are easy to pick up for free. I was a bit pissed when my parents tossed the nice 32" trinitron wega a couple years back, but ultimately it doesn't really matter. I have a bunch and they still have others.

Now if we're talking about PC CRT monitors, those are sadly getting to be really hard to find. I guess the fact that they were smaller meant people were more willing to toss them out sooner because it took less effort. Meanwhile plenty of people still have CRT TVs here and there simply because they don't feel like moving them.

That's a common bit of advice. It's also wrong, since that isn't enough. Some current smart TVs will, if you don't give them a wi-fi network, silently connect to any open access point they can hear. So if you or one of your neighbors have a guest network with no password, it'll hop on that, all on its own, and do all its internet stuff.

Any actual verifiable evidence of that happening?

Fucking autistic CRT niggers the cringiest posters on this board. Fuck off.

Why does it look like CRT makes less aliasing compared to LCD?

prove it

I just change everything to dark mode and brightness isn't a problem. Can't do anything about the fact CRTs wear my eyes out and give me headaches after prolonged used.

CRT does not have a "native" resolution, ergo every resolution it displays will always show up "sort of" blurry which makes some of the more egregious forms of aliasing less noticeable,
whereas LCD has one native resolution that it displays perfectly while everything else becomes a blur.

Here's two guys who had it happen, both on Samsung TVs.
