Nevermind that the static "snow" that you see is cosmic background radiation*

*well a part of it

Mmmmm.... Radiation.

the camo wall is from when I was a kid. I painted it with my dad, and even though it doesn't really fit me anymore, I don't want to paint over it because I liked doing it.

Edit: also no, the steam deck is not powering the monitor. I put it there because I liked the juxtaposition between the 90s CRT and 2023 OLED steam deck. It's an old 2200+ AMD sempron. Also yes I know it's a PC monitor, not a TV. It's still a CRT, hush.

Edit 2: after fighting with spoilers, I give up.

FYI, spoilers work differently, both in terms of markup and rendering, than they did on R*****. (It's unfortunate; I liked the old way better.)

Televisions today are much cheaper than in the past.

Do TVs actually refuse to work if you don't connect them to the internet?

[-] Cosmonaut_Collin@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Depends on the TV. Most of them work without internet. Only a few of them fit the meme.

Actually, I just realized that the TV wouldn't know to update if it isn't connected to the internet, so the meme falls apart.

Old TVs could also take a hit from a bowling ball without a problem, new ones can break if hit by a rubber band!

Old ones could also distort the image if you moved a strong magnet across the screen.
