I just don’t get how people spend +$500 on a PS5 or an *Xbox to play games that barely work, and the friggin’ thing constantly wasting 500 Watts of power. 🔥⚡

While i spent the same amount of money on a used laptop from 2019, where i can replay my favorite games from the PS2 era (and discovering some hidden gems along the way) using only 45W. 🔌💡🔋🍃

*At least the Series S does makes sense to me, since it’s a lot cheaper and efficent, and it’s mainly targeted for lightweight or previous gen titles.

      CRTs certainly DO waste electricity⚡🔌💸

      And they are hazardous for your health since they emmit low-powered X-Rays (which is harmless for short periods of time, but speding days, months, or years in front of a CRT or Plasma TV can be a potential cause of cancer). ☢️💀

      If you can, please use LED or LCD 🖥️💻
