LCD vs OLED, does it matter to you? Or do you not care either way? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (10 children)

Definitely! OLED is unusable for me because it has really bad PWM flickering. The majority of people can't see the screen flashing on and off like a strobe light, but many of us have eyes that do see the flashing, and it's awful.

I can't wait until a new display technology gets popular that doesn't use Pulse Width Modulation

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm an American, i shot a ton of my friend's guns one day, it was actually very underwhelming. You pull the trigger, an extremely loud noise happens, and that's it. That's the whole thing.
