I'd argue that a PVM isn't a requirement if you're seriously looking to get into retro gaming as a hobby. Yes a PVM is in fact better quality than any consumer set but I don't think the difference is as massive as you're making it out to be. Especially considering the additional money you'd need to fork out for one over a consumer set which will be anywhere from $0-$75. I picked up a 32' Toshiba for free off Craigslist from a elderly couple that never used it. That Toshiba rivals the Sony Trinitron(the go to retro gaming consumer tv) and has component, s-video, and composite. After popping open the back and tweaking the colors, it looks outstanding. I have my Genesis, Saturn, and OG xbox running component while the N64 and Dreamcast are running on s-video.
This is mostly correct I suppose. The most important thing is whatever output it supports. I think the PVMs are probably the best in terms of quality and design, but yeah they might not be worth the price for everyone. Like I said I really love CRTs, might not be the absolute best source.

what kind of CRT? Ive been thinking just buying one off offerup
The one I got was an old Commodore 1702, 13 inch. The best output it supports is s-video, which I think looks good. It's better than regular composite (the yellow red and white cable youd plug into your old tv), however it's inferior to some of the higher end CRT outputs. I bought it more cause I love the aesthetic design of this particular monitor, and less cause of it's video quality (which is decent however).

If you're serious about getting a CRT, get a Sony PVM. Really high quality, all kinds of higher quality connection types, RGB, component (and usually s-video too). 13 inch or less might be around $500 or so. 20 inch or more $1000. I'm not there yet but I really want a 19 or 20 or 21 inch PVM, so I'll do that someday. (you go bigger than that and CRTs start to get REALLY heavy. I wouldnt buy one more than 21 inches)

If you're not that serious, buy a cheap (sub $100 ideally), small CRT, see how you like it, and decide if you want to upgrade. Just understand though the quality of the average consumer sets we'd all watch at home in the 90s, is far inferior to the PVM (professional video monitors) that Sony and other manufacturers put out. Those things are just crisp, deep, vibrant and beautiful. Though I am someone who loves the technology.

Instead of buying a nice new PC this year, I spent a good deal on getting the retro setup of my dreams. My favorite CRT and a big collection of complete Famicom and Super Famicom games, and original Xbox.

I've wanted a decent collection for years, but have had nothing for a long time.

Current guidelines generally call for a duration of 3-6 months of anticoagulation for a provoked DVT/PE (that is, an isolated event). However if someone has had multiple unprovoked DVTs (even while on anticoagulants) then lifelong therapy might be indicated.
My dad has been on anticoagulants for life, so it wouldn't surprise me for that to be the case. I feel probably 90% better, but six months in I still am dealing with the dvt in my leg.

I think what provoked it in this instance was several months of very little physical activity. Last year I went from taking regular walks to having almost no physical activity, and my job moved to my desk at home, which is where I spend my free time already. So there was about 4 - 5 months of no activity.

The thought of taking them for years, and then my body after years becoming acclimated where it really does need them, scares me. I'd rather get off of it as soon as possible. I'm not a medical professional, and I'm going to listen to my doctors or get opinions from other doctors I see, but it just worries me.

Guys, relax, he's on anticoagulation after being worked up by a medical professional.

So TC, is it Xarelto or Eliquis? If Xarelto, then make sure you take it with a big, fatty meal to maximize the bioavailability of the drug.
Eliquis. But actually I was wondering about that the other day, if its best to take before or after a meal, need to ask my doctor

Blood thinners, and they probably saved me cause I went from being basically unable to walk almost at all, to being normal again in about a week. I let it get a lot worse than I should have. I wasnt sure what was causing my limp, I thought I mgiht have injured myself but I couldnt remember. It felt like muscle pain so I was sure that was it. I sat on it for a week with it getting worse and worse every day.

Message is, get checked out.

As far as procedures like that, I think stuff like that might exist but it's more of a last resort thing. It's better if it just dissolves on its own.

Diagnosed at the beginning of the year in my right leg. It hurts like really bad muscle pain, but you can't touch or massage it cause you could dislodge it and have a stroke or pulmonary embolism (to the lungs what a stroke is to the brain).

But, before I knew I had a blood clot, for like a week I was massaging it and it felt REALLY good to massage. Like, there was this perfect point on my leg where I could really reach the pain. Anyway its really good I got checked out and stopped doing that.

But, if there was some way to induce that terrible pain, so I could massage it without risk of death, it would be worth it to do so cause it felt so good.

I really encourage you in Morrowind to try one of the guilds or great house questlines. The mechanics and moment to moment gameplay is much clunkier than Skyrim, but its content is far superior to Skyrim.

World's biggest problem is its lack of variety. 2 (doki doki) and 3 both felt like they had more variety than world imo.

I would love to make a romhack, adding in more variations to the different level color schemes. Mario Maker 2 added new themes to Mario World, that fit the style of that game, but weren't apart of the original (for example, a snow world in Mario World style).

Idk what would be the best snes game, though. My favorite is probably King of Dragons or Dragonview

I mean, the Empire is ruled by a racist Nazi regime.
If there was going to be alot of black people in the film, it wouldn't be a good thing if you know what I mean.

Sagan argument about the dudes in charge all being white is funny as he missed this point.
There was no point. Lucas filmed it at a studio in England in the mid 70s, so essentially 99% of the cast and crew were totally white people. It's something that he and the casting team should have thought of during that early phase. I believe he was just completely focused on other things, which is what I mean when I say subliminal racism. People noticed and he fixed it by the next movie (well, idk if 1 major character is "fixing it" but the story was already in place so how many further characters to introduce is a bit limited).

Did you not hear Carl Sagan, there are no black people in Star Wars (1977).

Lucas did try to correct it with following characters (like Lando), and then went on to make an all black WW2 pilot film that no one cared about. So, it's subliminal, unintentional racism at the very worst.

Yeah this is why I think so. And also cause China isn't rewarding efforts from these companies to appease to Chinese audiences. Because Chinese movie goers react to good movies and not pandering, so a lot of the pandering money has gone down the drain.

But I think the Hollywood reaction will be to swing back the other way. In essence, the 2020s are going to become the child of Reagan-80s. Anti-commie scare and everything.
