For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I had a Linux NAS connected to a huge CRT tv in a rental apartment (namely huge in the depth dimension). Had to buy a specific video card with an S-Video output. Watched films on it while tugging strings on a guitar.
P.S. Fun story, there was also a 60s-70s tv full of vacuum tubes just dumped on the balcony. I posted on the local forum, two guys replied, and both shown up together to haul the tv off and divide it between them.
Another time, a roommate left a CRT monitor with me, while I was already using laptops for everything. I drove it in my car to the nearest recycling point, at which a stranger intercepted me and said he'd gladly take it away for his son to tinker on.
Son to tinker on💀
I hope his son knows about the huge capacitor
Dad found out about it, but his son never did.
This sentence did not end the way I expected.
