Degauss

When would I want to use this?!
I tryed it a couple of times, no improvement was noticable.

Certain events (which I'll let you discover) can mess up an alive drone's screen, making it difficult to see everything clearly.

Being old enough to have actually used a degauss button on a real VDU, I loved this feature. Brilliant!

Yeah, and that button never seemed to actually do anything either. ;)

Yeah it did, it made the screen go Bzzzzt and the image go all wonky for a second :)

I thought I was old. I was wrong. I will google that I wonder what it was used for.

Edit:
THIS STUFF IS MAGIC!

Most CRT monitors used to auto-degauss when you turned them on but some had a button to invoke the function in a more 'intense' way - used to make a nice pingy buzz sound iirc :)

Just don't degauss your magnetic media ;)
