Since it's not explained until the end:

this is an adventure in adding VGA output to a Nintendo NES.

VGA is referenced in the fourth paragraph:

"Although the power module includes a Saturn-style DIN connector, I don’t own a compatible cable, and prefer to use VGA cables. So for my install, I decided to add a SNES multiout port."

OTOH it's instance #3563229642 this week of HN post title that tells you absolutely nothing what the link is about. For all the care that goes into HN and repeated editing of titles, I can't understand why this is regarded as fine :D

LavaRGB is the title of the post. Adding any more text to the title would be editorializing.

Do you buy a book based on its cover/title alone? Why would you not click the link to see what it was about? Something making it to the front page is going to be interesting to a decent sized audience, so why not click the link. It takes no time to ctrl-w if it's not your cup of tea, but it is much more productive than whining about titles

> Do you buy a book based on its cover/title alone?

Not a good analogy, and I would counter with: what is the purpose of the subject line in an email? It's neither new nor rocket science, and pretty obvious IMO.
