I’ve always loved flashlights. Yes FLASHLIGHTS with an A!!! Anyway, apparently not many people share my rather niche interest.

So I ask you, fellow Lemmites, what are your hobbies and weird obsessions that you can ramble on about for hours?

Please feel free to ramble on about your passions here. Maybe you’ll find some likeminded individuals!

    I highly suggest a Convoy or Sofirn flashlight if you ever get into flashlights. Both are very reliable for an extremely reasonable price.

    As for CRTs, are there any advantages to CRT over other display types? Is it a personal preference?

      Haha thanks for your suggestions, I’ll look into it :)

      And with CRTs, yeah, they can be pretty good. Of course, a calibrated CRT has perfect black levels, but that’s not even the best part. OLED and Plasma can do that too, after all. What I love about CRTs is the motion clarity. During motion, every display except CRTs becomes blurry. That’s the most important part for me. It makes a night and day difference for games.

      I made a post about a high end CRT monitor here. This monitor can go up to 1440p or up to 160hz (not both at the same time, though). I love it.

      And of course, a standard definition CRT is awesome for any pre HD console. They look awesome.

      So yeah, I think we definitely lost something with the transition to LCD and OLED. I hope I didn’t get into to much detail here, once I start with talking about the greatness of CRTs, it’s hard to stop :)
