minus-square@Pulptastic@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglish15•10 months agoI had a flat CRT. It was even heavier than a regular one.
minus-square@Soggytoast@lemm.eelinkfedilink11•10 months agoThey’re under a pretty high vacuum inside, so the flat glass has to be thicker to be strong enough
minus-square@Pulptastic@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglish3•10 months agoYeah I suspect there’s some lensing going on in there too which adds more weight.
minus-square@Hadriscus@lemm.eelinkfedilink2•10 months agoyeah my parents had a trinitron, that thing weighed a whole cattle herd. The magnetic field started failing in the later years so one corner was forever distorted. It was an issue playing Halo because I couldn’t read the motion tracker (lower left)
