   8k TV
   
   making 4k tv's affordable for me.
   
   Do you know how much a 19 inch CRT screen was in 1970s? 400 bucks or more. adjusted for inflation thats somewhere between 1600-1800
   
   Electronics were super expensive. we bought a floor console TV with a HiFi turntable and speaks and radio built into the top with the cabinet door to hide the TV screen. it even had speakers that lit up. I think my parents paid 500 for it (used) making payments to a family member or friend who formally owned it. probably 1200 easily then, 4kUSD today. and I think it was 22 inches not 19 and color of course.
   
   
   
   since 2000-2002 TVs have been mad improving. I remember the first Flatscreen I had was a Monitor but used for TV with tuner. like 720p
   
   the 720p was amazing to watch at first but I missed the old tv affect. we also bought a Back Projection flat screen that was 4:3 but had double line resolution. it repeated 420i but simulated to almost 720 with a progressive digital comb enhancement which made our first DVD movies (before blueray) enjoyable to watch and even the VHS looked better on it. it was analog but the digital comb improved it.
   
   
   
   fucking 8k TVs man
   
   
   12k is the next step. 12k TVs can be full Theater size. 8k is big enough to project a 600 screen which is the smallest theaters have. but 12 will be the larger screens for sure.

   My 19 inch CRT monitor just crapped out after 30 years use. Smelled some ozone and it started making a crackling noise, then it went totally dead. No power. Nothing.

   CRTs are highly valued by retro videogame enthusiasts who enjoy playing on older systems in the goal of achieving compatibility with older systems and visual fidelity to how the games looked when they were still modern.

   You know you're supposed to service those things every 4-5 years. the CRT or tube that looks like a light bulb has to be replaced. 200 bucks is the usual price. but those tvs lasted for years.

   Thats what I heard and found myself playing an emulator on it then tried it on a crt i had in the garage through the video output card and it was a lot better. i found it odd that a lower interlace tv was much better visually. I just thought it was a nostalgic thing of getting my first NES system in my late teens.

   anyways as the tvs get bigger, the processors gets smaller and the camera eyes get smaller with higher field of view range and higher resolution. they did a study where they figure that the focal point on the eye is about 300 equivalent to that of 300p resolution which doesn't include the larger peripheral obviously. but that's blured out. the point of this is that just because something is higher in resolution the eye itself seems objects not so clear in lower light but rather grainy. but the reason these TVs or certain pictures seem far clearer than life itself is it projects light from behind and our brains sees it literally clearer than a true life scene. so now these "Large tvs" seem "lifelike" is because they're projecting a clearer image because the cameras that took these images themselves are 8k resolution and they used with polarized lenses that reduce haze and uv lighting. kind of like if you put on a pair of UV reduction sun glasses.
   
   bottom line. You go in for basic surgery and the next thing you know you're a walking Orwellian bot because IBM, Fraunhafen, Dolby invented the insect camera 10 years back which now can just be injected with a simple needle into a human eye with a tiny tiny nuclear battery that will see what the person sees and be undetectable

   I started off on Amiga and Tandy monitors. Monochrome, greenish text on black and yellowish text on black, respectively.
