oh, so Dracula's eyes do appear red on a CRT, not as 2 red dots, even with RGB on a small TV:

Even though the 360 isn't one of my all-time favourite consoles, it was undoubtedly my go-to console for many years, especially during the 7th generation. Hundreds of hours spent across the Halo games.

I have to thank the Xbox 360 as it was the console that got me into gaming.

what i like about CRTs is that different tubes provide totally different experiences, like this uncompromising ”scanlines at 480p" monitor, or the little TV that irons out the jaggiest edges, almost reimagining the 512x448 raw image into a more playful and believable, albeit less precise, rendition.
xenosaga episode i screen on a PC CRT monitor. notice how the edges of objects are like a sawtooth pattern. low-resolution CRT TV RGB. notice how the jagged edges blend in now your display. pcsx2 software rendering with no-interlacing patch

Next lens experiment is an EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM that I just bought. It's a large aperture lens with a fixed length so it's tricky to use. Super sharp and you have to get a good distance/angle, but the result is WOW. I'm incredibly impressed.

Super Mario brazenly thieves a large key out from under the nose of a dormant Phanto, rousing the demon to terrifying action. Princess Peach confronts the mad bomber Mouser, catches one of his bombs and gives the drug-crazed beatnik a taste of his own medicine. Fungal Warrior Toad trods upon the burning desert sand in the shadow an ancient pyramid, carrying a dead, murdered snake above his head as a terrifying warning to his enemies. In a frozen hellscape, Luigi gets owned by a sentient snow ball. Damn, man. It's just sad.

Today I replaced my PS5 DualSense's face buttons with some inspired by the original colourful ones.
They look so much better than the black and white buttons, injects much more life into it. I also really miss the RYGB logo.

Played LSD, and now I can't stop having unimaginably esoteric dreams

Who is Linen and what does it want from me? Is there an end to all of this?

Is this reality..? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

One of the iconic Amiga game covers: Alien Breed.

Toothy. 💜
Alien Breed's cover with a black backdrop and a fanged xenomorph-like alien head with flared nostrils looking out of the darkness, maw open. Alien Breed in orange text is either side of it. Amiga - one meg required.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're in Picard's ready room. Picard is sitting like a normal guy at a desk in his uniform and across him is a hoighty toighty looking Vulcan lady with a tall hat and some fancy official looking clothing and accessories sitting across from him. Standing with hands resting on the 3rd chair is Mr. Data, in uniform. Closed caption reads, "Mr. Data, based"

Star Trek Voyager scene. Here we see Tuvok (Mr Vulcan) in gold uniform. He's in the cafatorium as evidenced by some bowls of produce in the background and pictured looking forward from a sit. He has a flat, blank expression despite the fact that an anonymous hand attached to an off screen person has their finger actually in his mouth lifting up his lip. Closed caption reads, "Just let the mouth curl a little there."
