Having recently played some retro games on era appropriate hardware, I’m actually a little sad CRTs are gone.

Obviously they were heavy, hard to manufactur safely, and were filled with toxic materials, but man are they like the perfect anti-aliasing tool for retro games. I’m sure some good filters exist to replicating it on newer monitors tho.

Overall tho I am glad both of these things are no longer the defacto used tech.

Yeah those things would get HOT. like, hot enough to melt plastic. And they were really wasteful.
