All CRT Monitors after the early 90s are auto-scanning, so they easily sync up to the input video signal as long as GTF or CVT video timings are used and the horiz. and vert. rates are within its range. A lot of monitors also support 1Vpp video signals, but standard is 0.7Vpp. There's no dodgy hack needed. Custom video timings will probably look off compared to the preset ones though since the exact inductor and S-cap combinations for horizontal linearity and S-distortion correction respectively are tuned only perfectly for specific scanning rates (there's multiple sweet spots depending on the combinations), always optimised towards for those standard presets (like 1600x1200@75). 1600x1200@95 will also look blurrier than @75, since the output filtering on the VGA output of whatever GPU or VGA adapter one uses is NOT tuned to output very high pixel clock rates. So many fucking moron redditors jacking off about a DP to VGA adapter they discovered which allows for 600MHz pixel clock video signals to be output, (allowing say 2800x2160@75 to be output)... aaaand ofcourse, it looks like complete shit at that res! There's a reason VGA adapters and GPUs limit the pixel clock to max 370MHz, given their output filtering capacitors will start attenuating the higher frequencies of the video signal, and blur it to shit.

I'd rather have a 4K/480Hz OLED, but they're too expensive for me, I don't have much time for gaming so it would be a waste. I got a cheap high- end CRT monitor for gaming/films instead. People buying a fucking CRT for 1K is ridiculous.
I really love my crts because all i really watch is old anime anyways, or vhs tapes which i just have tvs for.

It seems like there is some tiktok slop going on thats driving up the prices or something. On marketplace i've seen 15 women in the past 2 months begging for someone to sell them a tv/vhs comboe 13' tv, seemed so strange. I know when linus tranny tips put his video out on the fw900 they went from like $500 to $2-3k+ .
At least for my needs I don't really have a reason to spec whore much, although my only aperture grill is defective so that is pretty lame

Either is fine. Fave is the default for F1s and Nova gets you RGB so that's up to you too. The meta is Galatea/Hineybush soldered with half-plate Alu V1.1 anyway, so if you're hotswapping no need to worry about making decisions between PCBs.

sharty thread?

I’ve been running Linux Mint for over four years and was happy with it until the recent drama, especially the AI security scan fiasco. It really shook my trust in the maintainers.

I started looking for alternatives, but after testing hundreds of distros, none of them met my expectations for stability and reliability. I began to accept that my system would just break from time to time until I found a thread recommending Windows Seven as a rock-solid alternative.

After researching, it turns out this version is still surprisingly usable. It’s stable, reliable, and with extended updates plus a good firewall, security isn’t a major issue.

Has anyone else tried this? How did it go for you? Personally, I haven’t run into a single problem so far.

So what? Mint "developer" is not a fucking real developer, it's just a distro maintainer, he doesn't (and shouldn't) write any code instead of some basic python scripts that glue shit together.
Most security "work" that maintainers do is just monitoring software in repost for new CVEs and backporting relevant security fixes (basically git cherrypicking)

This is objectively true and can be proven with the commit log. Basically all of the good parts of nix came directly from Anduril employees. Hopefully Anduril releases there own distribution so all the normal people that care about quality can move to that.

I am currently in possession of a Dell Precision 5550 my school gave me and didn't ask for back; this happened 1.5-2 years ago so I forgot I even had it. I would like to use this as a personal laptop to replace my old desktop; however, the BIOS is locked, and it is running heavily restricted Windows, making it practically just a web browser.

I have already read a fair bit about how this is difficult but all info regarding actually unlocking it doesn't work--any advice? Is there a reliable way to do this without having to do anything to the BIOS chips? I am fairly technical but currently do not have access to the required tools for soldering/chip flashing. I do not have a USB-C flashdrive, but since I can't even open BIOS boot order due to admin lock, I doubt it would work.

Laptop model: Dell Precision 5550
Bios Version: 1.22.0
BIOS Mode: UEFI
CPU: i7-10750H
GPU: Quadro T2000 (Max-Q Design)
RAM: 32GiB

Should this be unfeasible/too painful, I am thinking of buying a ThinkPad P53 as an alternative.

I can provide more specifics if need be.

Internet regulation is good and necessary and the main reason is to protect children, this is especially true for porn as unmoderated porn will lead to CSAM and revenge porn slipping through, now you understand why the great porn purge of 2020 was a GOOD thing and should be done universally, its an unpopular opinion here but the internet must be regulated with an iron fist for the greater good.

Sooner or later you'll need a driver license like license to go online, with surveillance and fines. Masking your IP will be punished similarly to driving with fake plates, online behavior will fall under the same rules as behavior in any other public places, etc. It's a matter of time. On the up side, it will decrease unofficial bot use and people will be less detached from the real world once more. The down side is the loss of "this", but if you look back at your own life you can judge whether it would have been best if this didn't exist in its current form.

I don't even know why I got the XLR to 1/4" in the first place since the monitors take XLR, I guess they were cheaper.
