Anyone else ever flip their huge CRT TV sideways for Ikaruga on the GameCube? I literally had the one shown in the meme and had to devise a way to keep it from rolling back, since the edges on the sides were NOT designed to be used that way 🤣
I started work at a place that gave us single CRT monitors and expected us to do programming on them. I scoffed at the suggestion, ordered a Dell LCD monitor in the days when you had to mess around with screws and XF86Config to remount it vertically, and made for myself a 2-monitor setup with all the code on the vertical monitor on the side. I am not trying to brag when I say that I instantly became the alpha nerd of the office.
