@jbz I really truly don't understand why everyone these days seems hellbent on emulating the worst possible connections to the worst possible screens for "retro." They want it to look like a composite video connection across a wire that has almost completely degraded to a 1980 TV dug out of a dumpster that took a few knocks except not even that. For some reason they also throw in a bit of recorded onto a VHS tape then played back because... ... ... ... How would that even work? The latency would be unthinkable... (Several seconds?)

Maybe my computer screens and TVs were just better quality than what they had, but it definitely never had all the blurring, interference, and etc and I sure never saw super dark ultra-visible scanlines that could be seen from across a room...
