We shouldn’t waste time documenting our code when we need so much of that time breaking our code

Oh that’s cool! I’m gonna check it out. Thanks for finding this!

If I sing karaoke without Mary Jane’s Last Dance I didn’t truly sing karaoke

I think the question should be “why should we want to believe this?”

LCD crystals do have a theoretical maximum, but we don’t have display drivers or transmission standards that support those frequencies.

60Hz was the original clock rate, determined by US power cycles way back in the day. This was 50Hz in some countries.

With LCD screens, the potential for higher frame rates became easier to achieve. They began to advertise 120Hz TVs and monitors, which set a new bar for frame rates. Some advertise 75Hz monitors, slightly better than 60Hz when crunching numbers. 75Hz is achieved by overclocking standard 60Hz control boards, most can achieve this refresh rate if they allow it. Later HDMI standards, DisplayPort and DVI-D support this frame rate at least up to 2K.

144Hz is the same trick as 75Hz, this time with a 120Hz control board. The true standard frame rate is 120Hz, it is clocked higher to achieve 144Hz. Why 144 exactly? This was most likely due to the lack of standards that originally supported higher frame rates. Dual-link DVI-D was the only one which could push 144Hz at 1080p. Any higher frame rate (or resolution) and the signal would exceed bandwidth. Now 144Hz is simply a new standard number and plenty of 1440p monitors are set to this frame rate.

I’m not sure if any of this information is useful, code-server doesn’t support installing the Remote-SSH extension. There are alternative methods to connect to environments, I personally think Remote-SSH is ideal.

The MP3 and digital license sales number seems late in the game? I would expect them to start selling more in 2000 than 2005, but maybe MP3 players didn’t really pick up until later in the 00s
