        A great puzzle game with terminals often found in woods or other outdoors locations. Like so:

      Ya if it was old it’d be piss yellow from sun damage and way dirtier. With a few bullet holes if it was left outside in some places.

      It was outside my dad’s house - It turns out he found it with some old tech in his house and pit it out there hoping someone would take it.

      I took it the next time I came.

      EDIT: he says it was out there 2 weeks

        Some of those monitors are now worth quite a bit.

            It’s iiyama, looks to be in great condition. Some sell for hundreds of pounds:

            The resolution is not that simple.

              Thought it was a flat panel from that era, if it’s a high quality CRT yeah those can be pricey due to low input lag and high refresh rate.

                Oh, you’re likely right then. I assumed it was a big CRT.

            Donate it to a library, they’ll probably be ecstatic to have such advanced technology.

    An altar of ancient origin. They say when the lightning strikes and it brightens, they acted like doors, or rather windows to the universe.

    in the woods

    literally in front of a fence, which is not a natural formation in such a location (someone must have built it, so it must lead somewhere)

    Bet it still works. We have one like that too, and had at least 2 computers using the display die before it. Still going strong

        Very nice! I’m not sure if there’s an on screen menu, but maybe try the bottom buttons if you get a picture.

          Hey! I got around to test it with a VGA cable and it fucking works! Watched a Seinfeld episode on it.
