Found at the local recycling center: 20 inch scart tv with VCR lying around. Needless to say I didn't leave it there.... and it's working too . Prob won't use it as a monitor as I'm sorted but it'll be handy as an arcade cab tube replacement .

Retro consoles in 90s anime on a retro TV - Sega Saturn edition!
A Saturn makes its second appearance in episode 23 of Neon Genesis Evangelion, played by Asuka.
Sega's involvement extended to games and is named in the credits as one of the show's producers.

Flying to the Moon and Back; The Anime Phenomenon of '95.
Neon Genesis Evangelion was still a big deal when I joined my college anime club in late '96 and we'd gather around to watch fansubbed tapes. There was such an air of mystique about the show and its themes and use of religious iconography.
@tzimmer_history an energized puppet mob minority, is fed conspiracy and distortions about well any trend from #hunterbiden #immigration #transgender people, to #crt etc to eliminate the ability of these #maga -ts to even think about the real issues in the world. They’ll be fed a hysteria mix to #gotv to undermine #elections. And we don’t even bother to systematically track or transparently counter the mass #propaganda. d’oh. Just try to push it into old frameworks.

I've not watched much video on this PVM since getting it, I mostly used it for playing games using the MiSTer. It's video quality is very striking in person; I keep getting caught off guard by text in particular.
This is 3 hours of Japanese TV captured in 1988 on an S-VHS tape. It's stunning...I think it at least looks better than DVD.
@brewsterkahle #propaganda works. always has. the far right multiverse of channels snd influencers spews out a million tons of a emotional agitprop a day. #crt #libraries #LBGTQ #transrights #immigration #hunterbiden etc etc etc. and crap filled #socialmedia platforms’ like #Facebook #YouTube #algorithms #meta injects people with the sh#t all day long.

Got a Commodore 1084S from a friend today. He got it for free, did not need it, and gave it to me for free. Circle of life, I guess. 🤗 Great little thingy, although contrast and brightness need to be all the way up there to get a picture. Focus could also need some adjustment, and the image has a clear yellowish tint (best seen on white backgrounds). Not complaining, just thinking it might need a recap. I'm very grateful for having this one. Might be a project for another time. Oh, and tested it with Cybermorph on the Atari Jaguar, because what else? 😂

How a Culture War Over Race Engulfed a School District
After a ten-year-old took her own life, residents battled over whether her death was a tragic but isolated incident, or caused by a pattern of racist bullying.

Anyone recognize this beautiful Sony #crt display?
I’m especially curious about its stand with built in (giant) controls 😮
Old pixel games really look so much nicer when you play on a CRT TV as intended. Nice and smooth.
Here’s True Lies (Sega Mega Drive) on a CRT vs emulator on LCD screen.

I did a bit more experimentation with the #Sinclair #TV80 pocket #CRT TV over lunch and managed to get a stable video signal from ONE VHS tape.
I wonder if I'm maybe falling foul of #Macrovision copy protection?
the other tapes I tried the audio came through fine, but the video is suffering from horizontal and vertical scrolling, but with this one tape I get a clear picture but hissy audio.
Could be wifi or electricals interfering, or maybe I need to try something other than VHS.
5$ Bluetooth Dolar Tree speaker review
In this post im gonna be talking about a $5 #bluetooth shower speaker I had for about a month now purchased from #DolarTree .
Despite the name you dont have to use it while in the shower. But that's it's intended use. It is also water resistant.
Being bluetooth, it enables you to use on any bluetooth capable devices ranging from modern pcs, #laptops, #smartphones, #switch #nintendoswitch, *some* #smarttvs, and #Playstation Portal*not* ,sony is a money hog these days, they dont support bluetooth on the #playstationportal .
i'l tell you up front, This $5 bluetooth speakers is better then most flat lcd, led and oled tvs build in #sound equipment #speakers . And its cheaper, probally because its just the one speaker.
How exactly does it sound, imagine how old #crt #tvs use to sound like but with a single portable speaker, with just enough #bass to #sound good but not enough physical speaker space to be perfect. The quality of the music/sound is good but not outstanding.
For $5 this is probally the best bluetooth speaker you can buy at full price that cheap. Plus it is water resistant.
summary
it'l meet you half way. Giving you half the sound quality, and a somewhat cheat price. I say somewhat cheap because other items at dolar tree usually go for a dolar. $1.25 such as #headphones, #earbuds but those arent as good.
Are bloggers allowed to participate in #SepTandy ? Well, this one's gonna. Let's kick things off with a look at the Tandy CM-5 #crt monitor. #retrocomputing https://dfarq.homeip.net/tandy-cm-5-monitor/
I bought a Sony Jackal 300 TV/radio/tape player. Most of this won't work outside of Japan, but that hasn't stopped me in the past. #crt #crtrepair #retrotv
I really need to stop going into that #vintage shop...
Just bought an almost totally useless #Sinclair portable black and white #CRT #TV from 1983!
The #TV80 is noteworthy for using a side mounted electron gun to give a fairly flat and thin CRT!
No video inputs, but a quick look online and it seems there are ways to force a signal in there either by modding or wrapping an RF cable around the aerial...so sounds like I've got myself another project.
It even comes with the (dead) battery!
Amidst the journey of life, remember the days when 'It is now safe to turn off your computer' was the message that closed chapters of our digital adventures, reminding us that endings, too, can hold a touch of nostalgia and the promise of new beginnings~

Another CRT TV added to the collection, the 21" screen was absolutely filthy but below a beautiful picture perfect for some 50/60Hz RGB Scart retro gaming.
There is a slight tilt sadly from left to right, but maybe one day I can do something about that (thoughts??).

I hire planners. Our interviews make it clear that I expect them to understand history, how it shows up in today's crash data and gaps in active transportation networks, and the context all this creates for community engagement. Essential professional knowledge. Who will want to hire graduates from colleges prevented from teaching history?

As @eff says, "The government should not have the power to decide what topics are 'safe' online for young people, and to force services to remove and block access to anything that might be considered unsafe for children. This isn’t safety—it’s censorship."
This is especially true at a time when states are declaring that the existence of #LGBTQ people, facts from #BlackHistory & #CRT, and other forms of political dissent are unsafe for children.

The reason Republicans go after trans people, CRT, etc is they have professionals who have done polling & focus groups & examined the psychology telling them there are effective targets.
As with everything they do, the goal is to get the public to move power to them so they can use that power to benefit their benefactors.
Tax cuts, get kill regulations that protect the public but impede profits, privatize public goods, etc.
This is why they do it.

Alright #retrocomputing #nerds I come to you again with a #technical question.
I've got a #raspberrypi hooked up to an old #crt monitor. After messing with the #hdmi settings in the config.txt, the boot screen and the rainbow screen show up as expected. However, once it tries to load the command line, the screen freaks. The closest it gets to "working" is with all the default values, but as you can see the screen is torn and shown in triplicate.
Any ideas, friends?

According to #CriticalRaceTheory, racism is normal.
It is embedded in our everyday lives and lurks within everyday practices and cultural behaviour patterns. It is not just about overt hostility by extremists.
It sustains white supremacy and is often unnoticed by well-intentioned individuals.
