Poor-developer Memes

When your CRT monitor from 2003 is technically curved, but not in the flex-worthy way everyone's posting about on Reddit. Yeah buddy, that's not the immersive gaming experience they're talking about – that's just the natural bulge of cathode ray tube technology. While everyone's dropping $800 on their sleek ultrawide curved displays, you're out here representing the OG curve that came standard with a 60Hz refresh rate and enough electromagnetic radiation to warm your coffee. The best part? That thing probably weighs more than a small car and takes up half your desk, but hey, at least you can say you've been on the curved monitor trend since before it was cool. Sometimes the budget doesn't match the ambition, and that's okay – we've all been there with our hand-me-down hardware.
