Great. Now I’m unsure of how to pronounce database as well.
I haven’t even tried the application yet, but that website is pretty damn cool!
Simply being reminded that this video exists never fails to brighten my day.
Never seen the guy before, but he is straight up Calvin’s dad.
Somethin’ like a fish.

I'm just going from memory, but I believe the tubes used a brightness-amplifying screen kept charged with electrons that, when struck by light, would result in a brighter image that could be scanned by a beam. The downside of this technique is that a very bright area would suck up electrons from around it faster than they could recharge, resulting in a dark halo.
