Besides the bonus #scanlines my (f)ailing display is giving me, there are #artefacts in how the #terminal emulator is rasterizing the ░▒▓.

(Huh, I can do #gradients. That could give me some #leeway before switching to proper #256color or #24bit terminal mode which my #tmux loves to butcher)

I wonder if all that #WASM they're putting in the #fonts these days could be used do ensure an even pixel grid at odd font sizes.

I used to have two of these on my beloved PowerMac G4 dual 800. One of these is the CRT in question, the other I gave to my niece along with that G4 tower years ago when I moved to a G5.

Best CRTs I've ever owned.

I still have 14 CRTs in use in the Cellar, but this one is the best. :-)

Anyone know of an app or driver or tool that can make my Windows PC display look/feel like a CRT television with 480i resolution, scanlines, etc?

I'd love a general solution that I can use for playing old games AND watching old shows. The blurriness used to be a feature.
