I have reoccuring dreams about CRTs. Most times that I either find them at random in old houses or I stumble upon CRT shops and enter them and the salesperson can't stop giving me advice.
What the frick does this mean?

you desire crt's.
I often have treasure trove dreams of my desirable items as well. then I wake up and am pissed that I don't actually have all this cool shit
ingest your prescribed medications
Based and phosphor pilled.
Marisa Anon isn't real. It's a coordinated persona by CRT sellers to inflate prices, don't fall for it.
Anon the dreams wont stop even if you get a CRT
I keep having nightmares where particularly my CPD-300SF gets destroyed in some way, usually by the plastic getting brittle
Wouldn't be the first time I've lost a CRT to brittle plastic either
kek
How do you lose a crt to brittle plastic, sure it wont look as nice with cracks but the internerls themself should be unaffected right?
The chassis had basically completely broken down, in this picture it's still relatively intact but held togheter with tape. Later nothing would stay in place, not even the leg. Only pieces left was the internal metal chassis, and at that point I decided to let it rest in pieces.
It was already quite burned out (1996 monitor), and being a 17" 85khz it wasn't a big loss. Had the NEC already too.
I wouldn really care about that aslong as its still bright enough to use hope you gave it away instead of trashing it
I kinda care about the aesthethics of my CRTs. Also I wasn't even using it since I had the 22" NEC.
It did get bright enough with G2 adjustments but the tube was just tired. It couldn't handle above 70mhz and the phosphors were really dirty looking.
The monitor I see nightmares about now is this gorgeous 20" barrel Trinitron with very little use on it. Thankfully the monitor still feels super solid, nothing to really worry about.
but did you trash it or give it away?
It didnt deserve to die just because it was a little ugly
Anon, it was lucky to live its last years with me. It required a whole lot of expertise and tinkering to make any use of, for example it was only usable with interlaced modes due to the bandwidth issues. And it didn't accept just any interlaced modeline either, took me quite a while to figure out what it likes. Learned quite a bit about these things thanks to it really.
It was actually getting dangerous to handle or keep around too. Anyone else would have trashed it a long time ago.
still wouldnt have trashed it no SVGA crt deserves to be trashed at this point
And what exactly would you have done with a chassis that no longer holds itself together?
given it away.
Aslong as it still works somone would have been hapy most likely
Dang what a moron, could have just given it away for free. No idea why CRT zoomers are such idiots and butthurt to give anything away, rather throw it into trash. Disgusting.
Can anyone translate this ESL shitfrick of a post?
I understood anon, fine
Do you have reading comprehension problems?
Clean up your room anon, nobody wants a broken down ugly shock hazard that can't display more than 600p without blurring due to baked componenets.
It would be embarassing to even list such a monitor expecting anyone wants it. Especially when you can get much better CRTs consistently.
still should have listed it thats how the community keeps going i hope your sony dies
>i hope your sony dies
it's already fricked, that's why he never posts about it and when he does its always "i'm working on it" pictures instead of using
imagine he paid 250 eur for it, meanwhile here you can still find them for free if you ask universities and similar
If they're so easy to find how come you don't have a single picture of one?
posted many different CRTs I have in actual CRT threads
not going to do it in a shitposting thread though
So you're making up bullshit okay
even if I posted, what difference would it make? how would you know I got them for free and didn't pay for them?
but no I'm not going to attach shitposting threads to my name, thank you
we know you dont have it or you wouldnt need to make such excuses, CRT chads love to post their displays, they're exibhitionists after all (I miss this monitor so fricking much)
No, using CRTs does not make you an attention prostitute. Frick off with that shit that ruined these threads.
No one believes you anon, cough up the pictures of your F520 collection or frick off
I don't think the CRT preservation council approves of that kind of frivolous use
post more smug blonde anime girls おねがい :3
What a hard request to fullfill, with my personal policy of only posting touhou. I have a dozen pictures that come close to smug, but not quite.
That rumia pic is from a western reddit artist, possibly a correlation there.
This is conjecture, but for overall lifetime of a CRT, short power cycling is probably pretty bad. I've read anecdotes about valve tubes lasting twice or thrice as long if they weren't subjected to cycling, It's probable the same applies to CRTs.
Another bit of supporting evidence is that anon with the soon-80k iiyama, he never cycles his CRT. Though I guess he blanks the screen while not in use.
I'm not telling you to keep your CRT on 24/7, that's dumb. Get a disposable LCD.
On the other hand that appears to be just another cheap 19", so it's not really that big of a deal if you keep using it like that.
But the council still disapproves.
Sounds like your printer was new, intact and fully functional, my monitor was not.
Smug black haired anime girls are superior
Of course I don't keep it on 24/7, I only turn it on when I'm doing something on it and when I'm done I turn it off
I never claimed I have a F520, what are you on about? I just hate attention whoring morons, including you. Hope you loose your arms or go blind and deaf so you stop posting.

Surely you have pictures of the F520's you've supposedly flipped?
Forgot about Tsukasa
Sad how insecure and incompetent zoomers are these days. Poor CRT, RIP.
I recently gave away a printer with the text "no ink, was a gift I ended up regretting accepting so I'm getting rid of it" - three people ready to pick it up within the day.
Time to get your IQfy on and use the guts to make pic related. Pretty sure there are precut kits out there and all, you just specify your display size and boom.
beamng chad
>Anon the dreams wont stop even if you get a CRT
But what do I do with it? I don't play games or watch shit, I just develop and shitpost.
>Wouldn't be the first time I've lost a CRT to brittle plastic either
haven't even considered this. Legimately horrifyin g
I am an Aspie unironically
You gonna get raped. Don't enter the shop you see in your dreams.
I've been getting literal death sentences and lethal injections for days now.
The spam on IQfy is getting to you
You could be autistic
You need a CRT. You will get a CRT.
>I stumble upon CRT shops and enter them and the salesperson can't stop giving me advice.
What the frick does this mean
Means you should buy a CRT
I love my crts so much, they are part of the last remnants of a more comfy time, flatscreens can never replace them
Enjoy your flash-over bro.
based anon and agreed
mental illness
crts are comfy and nice
I threw out 10 crts monitors last year to clean my basement, good riddance.
Same, had people already waiting to pick them up.
Mostly mediocre ones that I didn't have a use for, too good for console /vr/, too shit for PC /vr/.
When I find old CRTs I take them out to the desert and shoot them.
>I stumble upon CRT shops
I've had a similar dream where I was in a store and there was a section with random CRT's. Just when I was about to grab a Sony TV off there and go to checkout, the dream ended. Quite bizarre to be tbh.
For me it's rear projection TVs.
It's telling you to upgrade your 2500k
Just got my second CRT for my home server
Nice dog anon
it would be very cute to have a less clunky securitron like AI like Yes Man from NV, but with anime girl faces like that. or just a home assistant AI with a CRT that shows her faces. very comfy
