That’s a misunderstanding. CRTs technically don’t have refresh rates, outside of the speed of the beam. Standards were settled on based on power frequencies, but CRTs were equally capable of 75, 80, 85, 120Hz, etc.

Essentially, the speed of the beam determined how many lines you could display, and the more lines you tried to display, the slower the screen was able to refresh. So higher resolutions would have lower max refresh rates. Sure, a monitor could do 120 Hz at 800x600, but at 1600x1200, you could probably only do 60 Hz.

Are we talking neon red "cherries" or Luxardo cherries? Cause I can respect one of those.

You don't even have to buy them. The jars at the supermarket aren't locked or anything.

I don't mind sponsorship segments as much. A good content creator finds a way to make those entertaining as well. And if they don't, a couple presses of the arrow keys does the job.

NGL, I didn't know there were two of them. I'm not a president, though, and not afraid of being ignorant/wrong about something.

Multiplexing is a relevant term to look up for more information on the concept

The other day, I had ginger cookies smothered in mascarpone for dinner.

The lack of ammo is solved with the chainsaw. That's why they give you puny zombies in every battle. They're easy to kill for a little health, and it only takes one charge of the chainsaw to fill up on ammo.

Doom rewards you for playing aggressively, much more so that the OG game did. They want you to get right up into the thick of it, not corner peek with your shotgun.

Definitely fair if that's not your type of game though. It's plays quite different from the original.

The first one doesn't count. It's really just a formality.
