Oh fuck yeah, give me some of that Elite.
Legitimately would love to play it again, Elite: Dangerous is super fun, but nostalgia wins.

That's a sweet monitor
I have a certain amount of warm-and-fuzzies for pretty much anything with a VFD.
My buddy and I have been cheezin' out playing elite dangerous vr. Not doing much in the game, really, but basically enjoying the modern version of this pic.
This is a render, here is the artist's page https://www.artstation.com/artwork/nY2ZLr
You know, I was starting to wonder if it was a render. It all looks good, but the lamp kept throwing me off. It's the part that looks rendered to me. Thanks for the catch!
I thought this was painfully obvious but the comments don’t seem to mind, lol
And every game worked with a joystick. Which you simply plugged in and it worked. Because the joystick ports were right there.
Yep!
Why is the TV set to channel 5?
In the US, most RF switch boxes supported 3/4 or 2/3. I think some other countries used 36, which usually had no actual broadcasters (it overlaps eith a signal radio-astronomy uses)
As someone pointed out, this turned out to be a rendering.
