i don't like how this glass damage looks like it's going straight to the phosphor layer like I know it's not because the seller shows an image of the CRT displaying the wii main menu so the vacuum is still intact, but it still looks really weird lmao

Beat all of the round 2 stadium cups (and without using the infinite continue glitch!!) Hardest was definitely the final round of the challenge cup, but I went through gen 4 battle factory hell before so I was well prepared :)

Spent a lot of time rerolling for a good team though (see the 64 tries lmao), kept getting horrid mons like ember houndoom Scizor was really good at stopping snorlaxes thankfully, I'm terrified of gen 2 snorlax (and fortunately none knew fire blast or fire punch)

Unrelated to the challenge cup, misdreavus was swapped out with zapdos. Sorry, you just weren't cutting it for round 2 :( at least the Zapdos has good DVs, 9/13/14/14/15

Finished round 2 of little cup, it went pretty smoothly-- mostly because I over prepared I think with the DV breeding and vitamins lmao the trio of Abra - Houndour - Chinchou pretty much carried the entire thing. Togepi was really good as moral support.

Finished making a team for stadium 2 after weeks of on and off breeding for good DVs and egg moves + full stat experience training misdreavus probably should hold a magnet for their thunderbolt instead of spell tag but I believe in their base 60 attack powered shadow ball

anyways I just finished training him, he got passed down petal dance as an egg move and has max stats except for attack ๐ŸŽ‰ (i'll replace vine whip for something else later)

if I didn't have the 20" widescreen PVM I probably would be much more inclined to mod it also size comparison between the widescreens for fun

I should RGB or s-video mod this set but i'm lazy and college is coming up

was going to bring this PVM 5041Q on my vacation tomorrow, but I've been mostly playing pokemon crystal and building a team to use in stadium 2 as of late so probably not

wanting to sell my KH PS3 games because I only play the 60 FPS versions nowadays, but the thought of dealing with FB marketplace again for like 10 bucks max tires me out lmao i took nice pictures just in case though

This just makes me sad :l

It looks like vintage TVs and Monitors are getting destroyed on import! Possibly due to this new e-waste executive order that restricts exports, but it appears to be blocking imports too. @thetechknight.bsky.social reported www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Composite no longer displays only in B/W on this 5041Q after I swapped out the old orange trimmer pots and put in new ones along with some ceramic caps, hurray ๐ŸŽ‰

also one thing to note about the 20AF41 is that component is handled much better than S-Video there's a lot of smearing on it compared to s-vid signals in other sets I've used which is a little disappointing since I love s-video when it's processed right :(

Got around to testing out my spare 4k USB-C to VGA adapter after months of having it lying around. i'd be sad if my main one died and this one didn't work after. anyways look big numbers ๐ŸŽ‰ (the 4k res is scaled by 175% for legibility and is only for stress testing the adapter)
