I think some commercial TVs might do what you want.

In grad school I picked up a an old free HP LaserJet, with an Ethernet NIC card (it was an upgradable printer, maybe from the mid 2000s?).
It was great! Only complaint was no duplexer, but the thing printed great from Linux and the generic toner was cheap.
Today though...the experience is a bit different.
At work on a slack it just means "I'm watching this discussion."
You discounted space dust.
No I didn't
it would thermalize and radiate.
This is not my paradox, and it's not really a paradox at all, as the big bang model explains it nicely. There are many nice articles on the topic of you'd like to read more about it.
Yes. But why is there an absence of light?
If there are infinite stars, then every direction you look would encounter a star. (Things stay the same brightness per subtended angle as they get far away. Space dust doesn't matter, as it would thermalize and radiate.)
So, the universe can't have infinite luminous matter, be static and ageless, because if it were then the night sky would look like the surface of a sun.
This may all seem obvious, but it's neat that you can figure that out with the naked eye.

Olbers's paradox, also known as the dark night paradox or Olbers and Cheseaux's paradox, is an argument in astrophysics and physical cosmology that says the darkness of the night sky conflicts with the assumption of an infinite and eternal static universe.
The night sky being dark has some profound cosmological implications.
Widely regarded as the best Seinfeld episode is The Contest. It's about who can go the longest without masturbating, but what makes it great is that they never say that explicitly
it's just euphemisms and insinuation. And it's hilarious IMHO.
I believe they initially wanted to spell it out, but the networks wouldn't let them (I could be wrong). Definitely for the better that they danced around the topic the way they did.
(Yes I know, Jerry Seinfeld is a problematic person, I'm just trying to answer the question...)
Crash Team Racing PS1 was IMHO better than Mario Kart N64. The wumpa fruit added a neat dimension, and the ability to select weapons for battle mode was great.
Once I pulled an HDD out of an old TiVo for a desktop build (Gentoo, I think
this was a while back). I called the machine "voit" because it was an anagram of TiVo
but I particularly liked that it's a homophone for Voight, of Voight-Kampff fame.
Interesting, TIL
thanks!
Books has become e-books.
To some extent
but have you been to a hip bookstore recently? They exist, and are very much alive.
Scully and Mulder would not put up with this shit.
