  • Ooof, the other answers here make me think the answer is too many!

    I have 6 consumer TVs ranging from 14" to 29", including one 28" 16:9 SD Trintron, which is a novelty for OG xbox… And 10 computer monitors from 15" to 21" (Sony G500, pride of my collection)

    Majority were either free or under $10 usd, the only one I really paid through the nose for was the Sony monitor at ~$120 usd… and before the prices went mad for TVs at least in the last couple of years

    However, people still sleep on PC CRT monitors, I have paid less for all of the above than some people pay for a PVM/BVM, and while none of the ones I have can natively do 240p, they can make a really good, clean emulation setup with a bit of scaling trickery and VGA conversion. Hell, one can take component or RGB directly via BNC if you can feed it a 31khz signal





  • It’s right there in your copy-paste my dude, “BY DEFAULT”.

    The jackass(es) who actually was at risk went the extra step to enable IP address logging, which means that when Proton had to comply with a lawful court order, they actually had data to give.

    Proton is a company like any other that has to comply with laws in the country they operate in, but unlike a lot of other companies, they don’t log data UNLESS YOU ASK THEM TO.

    Moral of the story is, like has oft been repeated, know your threat model and plan appropriately.
