    I’m not taking OS recommendations from someone who sucks so bad at programming they need 3 rubber ducks to debug.

    /uj I had to get the insult part of that out there, the rubber ducks were too inspirational, I’m sure you’re a great programmer.

      But they’re RGB ducks!

        If you hold the picture far enough away, it just looks like one white duck.

        Opinions on RGB ducks vs CMYK ducks?

        The only RGB that is acceptable imo

      Maybe there’s a debugging blåhaj that we can’t see? Maybe it’s the too?

      The first article of sigbovik 2024 (which is relevant to this entire community tbh) suggested the blåhaj will replace rubber ducks.

    Your ducks look like riff on the old ViewSonic logo that was on my CRTs growing up.

    Nice monitor, I think my mom had that one when I was growing up. Does it go up to 1600x1200? I think that was the resolution her monitor had. I think it was also an aperture grille instead of a shadow mask.

    Mine was a basic-bitch beige shadow mask tube (which, amusingly, now tend to be worth more than a lot of the last generation mid-range CRTs despite being lower quality). I managed to find one on eBay in decent condition after a year or two of searching, so now it’s sitting in my room. My next CRT might be one like yours.

      It actually goes up to 1280x1024! I know what you mean, you can still find TV’s relatively easily but most people threw away monitors so those are much harder to find. It’s good for gaming because it has theoretically 0 input lag. If you try a retro Nintendo game (where input is important), Even using a 2ms monitor makes noticeable impact compared to a CRT. Tetris attack for example is like night and day on a CRT vs modern TV. It also helps when playing a FPS
