VGA just worked. HDMI and DP aren’t nearly as reliable.
Roads. Used to lay down concrete and they’d last for a decade. Now they put down asphalt on top of a concrete base. Granted they cost less in the long run to maintain.
My workplace still uses VGA monitors. They just don't die.
My city has been putting plastic in the asphalt. Apparently makes it last longer and way smoother. Hopefully doesn't create more micro plastic waste. (It probably does)
The amount of times I've struggled when setting up monitors over the past 5 years with HDMI and DP...only to have them eventually work in a way I had it previously when it wouldn't...is too damn high.
