From someone who made the screen trippier and trippier as a kid until he Icarus'd it, strong magnets taped to a drill bit and spun at high speed around the screen can degauss it. But this type of information basically has no application anymore
Speaking of Icarus, the Parker Solar probe has made its closest approach to the sun this morning. It cut contact (as planned) on Monday and it's probably reconnecting on Friday. That little guy is great. 3.8 million miles from the surface at 430,000mph.
I did not know that. I just dealt with the psychedelic colors lol
