Television just died (lemmy.myserv.one)

My TV died today and at first I was upset. Upon further reflection, I am okay with it. I'm not going to replace it. Perhaps this is the way?

It depends on the projector and how picky you are. Also, if you have a nice white wall vs something darker.

For me I have a cheap one around $80, and on a white matte wall you don't need the windows closed to see and enjoy the screen, but if the wall wasn't white it would be a different story, and if the overhead lights are on it would wash out a fair bit.

With a higher end unit that puts out more lumens, you could overcome most of those issues and still save space.

So really just depends on your expectations. For me, I'm not watching things that need perfect fidelity, and I don't need my overhead lights on while watching, so I can get away with an inexpensive unit.

3. Keep it theme-oriented, up to date and relevant.In general, all types of contributions are allowed, but the relevance to this community must always be evident and presented openly by the contributor. Posts that do not meet these requirements will be removed after a public warning.

4. Use self-moderation measures first before reporting.This community is fundamentally built upon freedom of speech. Since everyone understands minimalism differently and we do not want to exclude any kind of content a priori, we appeal to the individual users to block/mute posts or users who do not meet their requirements.
