If there are consumers, then probably

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:10 PM

#

man, thinking about it, Vectrexes are probably the worst console to try to work on

#

one of the early all-in-one kinda systems, so the CRT display was built-in

#

If that failed...No idea how you'd go about repairing the thing 😬

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:13 PM

#

crts aren't made anymore cause they're super expensive to produce and the extremely niche user base doesn't sustain that

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:16 PM

#

ye, that's what i was thinking, but seeing as cassettes are apparently still being produced, couldn't help but wonder

#

obvs the costs of production between those two are likely vastly different but 🤷

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:17 PM

#

yeah there are a lot of pretty insane materials required for CRTs, plus shipping costs due to how massive and heavy they are relative to newer display types

#

(relative to size)

dry bison Apr 28, 2021, 7:18 PM

#

fickle obsidian ...are there any modern producers of CRTs? <:thonk:523225904109977600>

Why would any modern manufacturer even bother with CRTS?

#

They're heavy, more involved, more expensive to manufacture and have lower fidelity..

#

I don't see the upside.

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:19 PM

#

For a niche audience that likes them, same as vinyl

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

there is a community of people that prefer them for old school games and actually for some modern games, but its def not a large enough market to compel anyone to take on the massive risk

dry bison Apr 28, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

So is this an interest in a new CRT or someone fixing old CRT?

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:20 PM

#

thing is the niche audience likely would still rather use old ones rather than pay the premium that the company would charge to justify the costs and lack of demand

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:21 PM

There's some that argue the refresh rates are better, but I've never dug into the details to verify that.

The one part that is true, however, is that some games were made to display on CRT with old cables that just don't display as nicely on current monitors

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

vinyl is pretty simple to mass produce compared to CRTs tho, most things are actually lol

#

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

tbh i'd definitely be interested in seeing better CRT filters created or something vs. an actual CRT

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:22 PM

#

tor eplicate a crt look just take a 4:3 LCD montior and get one of those plastic concurve pieces of clear acrylic

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

but apparently producing CRT filters is about as hard as producing a CRT or something 😂

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

and put it on top of the screen

#

that will usually add the slight distortion and seeing of pixels to create a simlar CRT look

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

lol

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

some game emulators have filters to add scanlines and such as well

#

i use the mode7 snes so that the graphics are HD and then add the filter to them to make them feel almost like the real thing

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:23 PM

#

Yeah but a lot of those filters really aren't all that good, or take further calibration to get even sorta close

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

just have to go through them all to find the one that fits what tvs one personally had growing up

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

aside from just "increase bloom and downscale + scanlines"

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

there are a multitude of filter attempts, for sure

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

since not all tvs were the same

#

i use the CRT-Simple in bsnes

#

pretty much creates what i had growing up minus the slight curvature distortion

fickle obsidian Apr 28, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

i was trying a PS1 CRT filter the other day and it was kinda funny, didn't really do the whole increase bloom thing, so I had to manually adjust it so it wasn't overly dark

fading lance Apr 28, 2021, 7:25 PM

#

but with the mode7 so the render is fully hd

#

it makes it so nice

open bane Apr 28, 2021, 7:25 PM

That's a weird request but I would like someone to explain me a thing about an english word. So, I discovered this word "iffy" yesterday but I'm not sure when to use it. When can I use it? (if you have some examples, that would be great!)

dusty magnet Apr 29, 2021, 12:24 AM

Iffy is like when something is not right

Kinda

It's hard to explaing

Yes exactly

It's only for situation or it's for anything?

Like if you walk into a run down house that has boards hanging from the ceiling that would be iffy

#

Are you familiar with the term sketchy?

#

Not at all, I've never seen this word before

dusty magnet Apr 29, 2021, 12:26 AM

Ah okay. Sketchy is kinda the same thing, can mean an uncomfortable situation if that makes sense

grand marsh Apr 29, 2021, 12:26 AM

#

Do you have an example?

dusty magnet Apr 29, 2021, 12:26 AM

#

If you walk into a torn down house it can be iffy or sketchy

grand marsh Apr 29, 2021, 12:28 AM

So iffy can also mean that something is uncomfortable? More a situation than a object, it doesn't work with: "this sofa is iffy"?

Sorry but I have an other question about these. So, "sketchy" is the stronger version of "iffy" but are "weird", "strange" and "funny" the same things? I believe these three mean that something is not right. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Weird, strange, and funny will mean different things in different contexts, but can mean similar things in a certain context, e.g.
"They were acting strange"
could also be, "They were acting weird" or "They were acting funny"

However, funny is typically more distinct from weird or strange, as it relates to humor or things being amusing.

#

jeez!

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 12:42 AM

#

Iffy and sketchy are similar, but I'd say sketchy has a more negative meaning compared to iffy, which is more uncertain/ambiguous, leaning neither negative nor positive, e.g.
"The schedule details were rather iffy"

limber fractal Apr 29, 2021, 12:42 AM

iffy and sketchy feel different but i'm having a hard time explaining.

iffy no negative connotation. it's like, i can't decide if to do this, or if to do that, so i feel iffy.

sketchy, is when someone's up to no good, acting sketchy for instance.

Astronomy pic of the day

Apollo 17: The Crescent Earth

Explanation: Our fair planet sports a curved, sunlit crescent against the black backdrop of space in this stunning photograph. From the unfamiliar perspective, the Earth is small and, like a telescopic image of a distant planet, the entire horizon is completely within the field of view. Enjoyed by crews on board the International Space Station, only much closer views of the planet are possible from low Earth orbit. Orbiting the planet once every 90 minutes, a spectacle of clouds, oceans, and continents scrolls beneath them with the partial arc of the planet's edge in the distance. But this digitally restored image presents a view so far only achieved by 24 humans, Apollo astronauts who traveled to the Moon and back again between 1968 and 1972. The original photograph, AS17-152-23420, was taken by the homeward bound crew of Apollo 17, on December 17, 1972. For now it's the last picture of Earth from this planetary perspective taken by human hands.

tbh I don't think i know what hiking is

#

my crude thonk of it is just sorta walking nature trails??

timid stag Apr 29, 2021, 6:28 AM

#

I mean pretty much yeah

#

Hiking is sorta a spectrum

#

It can be anything from flat evenly graded trails to increasingly steep rocky routes up mountain spines

#

With the latter being the transition into scrambling, which is kinda hiking+hands then beyond that you enter rock climbing

#

But generally the common theme is yeah, you're in nature. Or at least not walking around an urban concrete hell

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 6:30 AM

So I'm thinking of getting a capture card to stream console games, anyone used one before or no?

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 8:57 AM

#

Doesn't matter whether internal/external?

#

If external, I have an Elgato that's pretty easy to use

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 8:59 AM

#

Probably external would be easier. My of already gets toasty. Don't want to clog it with internal cards

#

So are capture cards the I ky way to use a pc to stream console stuff?

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:00 AM

#

Unless the consoles have built-in support for it, which is only PS4/Xbox One onwards, p. much so far as I'm aware

#

At the very least it's probably the most straightforward way, since other ways might involve like homebrew & some weird stuff

#

(but i'm not aware of any homebrew apps that enable any sort of alternative recording/streaming)

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:03 AM

#

Ah alright. But yeah I planned on getting a ps4 and streaming god of war and a few other games I've never played

#

When we get out extra taxes back and college refund

#

I have a 205 credit at a store like gamestop

#

Crappy thing is though that a used ps4 pro is 379. New is like 299.

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:04 AM

#

bleh

#

Yeah if you're just wanting to stream PS4 stuff, it has built-in support for it ya could use & save some money

#

I think the only reason you might want a capture card regardless would be to store a recording on PC of the stream, and to try subverting some stream-blocks some games use for certain cutscenes

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:07 AM

#

Ah, so like a ps4 can stream right to twitch?

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:07 AM

#

Yep!

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:07 AM

#

Nifty

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:07 AM

#

The only caveats are like mentioned, but I don't think they're dealbreakers for many folks

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:07 AM

#

I assume I just have to basically log in and use my stream key

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:08 AM

#

I believe so yeah

#

I haven't messed with it in forever, but can't imagine it's changed too much

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:09 AM

#

Alright I will look into it

#

Just sucks that best buy is out of stock on ps4s

fickle obsidian Apr 29, 2021, 9:09 AM

#

Oh, yeah, we might be heading into that weird transitional phase I guess

#

I've been putting off thinking about next gen so much due to unavailability it hadn't hit me yet that they're gonna gradually trim down stock of the old hardware

safe path Apr 29, 2021, 9:13 AM

#

Huh I guess I can buy direct from sony

#

Welo when I get my refund I will be doing that

#

Save like 200 by doing so

open bane Apr 29, 2021, 2:21 PM

@safe path other benefit for using a capture card is you can offload the work of streaming to a PC rather than having the PS4 do both. Will probably get a better quality stream as well as better framerates while playing
