  1. Having pure R, G, and B and then using subpixels with varying brightness is how LCD displays work. Having extra colors spill through isn't optimal. It looks like Halogen is almost completely missing blue light. Maybe Xenon? And then make a way to electronically adjust a filter to change what wavelength gets let through? And then make a grid of them at about 160dpi and make them addressable at about 120Hz.
  2. I think it would be a fun solution to bypass stupid energy efficiency regulation to sell a monitor with no backlight, then, also sell a lamp that emits 2000 lumens of "white" light that consists purely of 3 specific nanometer wavelengths for Red, Green, and Blue. "We aren't responsible if the customer just happens to combine two of our unrelated products".
  3. I think there might be an issue with colors, but you might be able to use phosphors to convert the sun's light into a light source that doesn't move as much. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoluminescence
  4. Run a duct of sunlight into a sealed dark room. Add some filters for safety and color. And pipe the ducting into the back of a monitor.
  5. Is just like to remind everyone that X rays are light. RF is light. Etc.
  6. https://archive.org/details/The_PlayStation_Book_2015_UK/mode/2up Page 9 right sidebar. I'll try to find a more primary source later.
  7. If I had a nickel for every time an American leather company made a video game console, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot of nickels, but it's odd that it happened twice.
  8. "Railgun shooter". Sweet! I love instagib!
  9. Here's a fun example. On my tablet, I use a program that was removed from the Google Play store, but I like it and use it and I'm mostly offline with the device so I'm fine with it. But Device Care or whatever constantly "puts it to deep sleep" if I'm not actively using the device because it decided what was in my best interest. Even though I have the app in the "never deep sleep" list. So, in this case, I would consider Device Care to be malware.
  10. I would hate to imagine the strain of talking to an unhelpful Indian technician in person. Over the phone is bad enough when I have to be polite and hope they eventually solve the problem, but in person? My annoyance would be far too palpable. Edit: It's completely possible Origin PC puts "malware" on computers.
  11. Pro Tip: Instead of trying to run a measuring tape, just slap a CD on the wall and take a picture. Then do the math. Also, I'm not sure it matters that much, but flipping one projector so the lenses are closer might help.
  12. Exactly how much a downgrade from your current monitors would you need in order to get a monitor that has an HDMI port so you can use that DVI port?
  13. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter This might help.
  14. Maybe someday you can save up for a filter. On a different note. This thing looks like a laser rifle from an anime.
  15. So...That's what Joel looks like with clothes on...
  16. Dual pump means there are two pumps.
  17. I really hope they didn't compare Dreamcast VGA to Dreamcast S-Video... That TV doesn't have VGA-In, but the RetroTink does.
  18. Diagonal measurements are literally linear...
  19. I very disappointed they did not formally disclose this episode's sponsor: Monkey Sports Network.
  20. Folding screens where the screen folds will always eventually break.
