It goes wrong when you try to convince me that retrocomputing is somehow better than building a reasonably priced new machine.

The solution is to use an old computer?

Sounds like copium

Short answer, cut an extension cord in the middle and solder in a FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER.

This gives you DC power. Now your lights will not flicker. They are also like 50% brighter.

But wait! The catch is that a lot of the strings are reversed in the middle so only half of it works on dc. You then have to cut the lights in the middle, swap the wires, and reconnect them.

Its a lot of farting around but looks nice.

I actually ran my outside lights on rectified DC power last year because the flicker kills me
