its probbly the rear projection. it looked like this, but my memory tells me it was quite a bit bigger https://i.redd.it/ig6k6bngyaca1.jpg

edit - its actually probably that same model i linked or a bigger version of the same line, its an RCA, I know they had a lot of those throughout the years, my grandfather ran a furinture, electronics, appliance and computer store in the early 2000s and the house was always full of Panasonic, RCA, and "Zenith" electronics. As well as the occasional thing from the more well known brands like Hitachi, Toshiba, and Sony.

but Zenith and RCA were dominant there

double edit - it appears RCA went defunct before I was even born, so if it was an RCA it would have been something he bought used, or had kicking around from before I was born.

this just sent me down a nostalgia rabbithole.

in the late 90s and early 2000s my grandparents had two interesting Televisions in the house, one was a very large CRT TV that they kept using until the late 2000s or early 2010s. but the other was an ENORMOUS flatscreen that was so big it looked like a CRT on the back, I dont even know what kind of technology it was, Im assuming it wasn't a CRT though if this one here in this video is the largest, because the one they had was 2-3 times its size horizontally. (they had it in the late 90s, Im g oing to assume it was an early version of a plasma but im not sure really)

That is literally a bullshit copypaste psyop that Russia regurgitated for over a decade to drum up a false narrative.

Unless you're just a Russian who's obligated to regurgitate your Nazi state Rhetoric, I'd suggest you educate yourself a little bit on the history of what caused this conflict, the sooner you realize that Russia has been waging probably the largest information war in history in the years leading up to this war.

**Understand one fundemental thing. Russia is a country that is mentally stuck in the 1700s and is obsessed over big lines on maps, speheres of influence, Emprie. It wants these things, It cant have these things without blood. It wont abandon its pursuit of these things. Russia wants America and NATO out of the picture so it can pick on who it wants. Russia has absolutely no chance of defeating NATO in a military conflict. So their only hope in a confrontation is to have the other side tear itself apart internally, everything they've done online the past 15 to 20 years has been in pursuit of that end goal. **

the sooner you realize that, you'll stop making a fool of yourself, doing their work for them by posting the same garbage that they cooked up in a military internet troll farm to aid their tinpot worldview goals. And if you dont, well, dont bother replying with more of your crap to me, because I Have an acute sense for Russian Nazi / Kremlin propaganda. You're wasting your time.

every single time I got myself in that slump the only way to get out of it was to literally stay up for like 20 hours straight. I couldnt do it now, I'd pass out and nap

They released the rest of the kill zone stuff for free

Two wrongs don't make a right. Whataboutisms are bad and you should feel bad

This is a gross and uneducated understanding of the issues that led to the revolution.

getting old is kind of terrifying.

I'm only 32. but now I think of the 22 year old version of myself who was a degenerate who would stay up until 5 in the morning, sleep until past noon, and do it all over again for 1-2 weeks at a time.

I can't even comprehend who that person is, they sound like an alien. but no, that was me.

Insane. Marginally related... I've learned the last year or so since I took up a moderator position for a computer game.. Some complaints you just gotta disregard no matter how many people whine. Being offended is a you problem. not ours. I've had this happen equally amongst people who were percieved as right wing, or lefties.

evidentley the news doesn't know enough to just laugh at the whining and disregard the complaint.

yeah, we still have a TV package but I havent had a TV in my office where I spend most of my awake off-time, there's nothing worth watching anymore for me, just awful programming , news, sports, and PPV/Inferior on demand services.

I dont even use netflix anymore, I rage-quit after falling for that tyson paul bait and switch scam. the only "TV" I watch anymore is like streams of 15 year old adult cartoons like the Boondocks and South Park. and whatevers on my buddy's Plex server. almost entirely old stuff more than 5 years old.

watching the news is just brain rot. you can get informed by 10 mins of scrolling current events on many different websites.. if you feel the need to be informed.

it's not the driving factor. but merely the ugly truth about an overlooked issue thats flown under the radar with this whole thing.

to clarify, when Im talking about "bad immigrants abusing the system" I'm talking about people who come here on a fake student visa or otherwise scammed their way in, Obtained a PR, also scammed under the same student visa path they took . and then scheming to get multiple family members brought over to join them under the family reunification path, and all of a sudden one person turns into 18 people . they come over, have zero interest in integrating, they just want to milk the land for what they can get, one of them being everyone utilizing the healthcare system for expensive services they wouldn't otherwise get at home.

I hate those words by association. thanks Elon
