If you want to play mental poker with an arbitrary number of friends/enemies, I built a prototype with a really basic UI that extends the SRA81 protocol to support more than two players and that also removes the need to reveal the hands at the end of the game. https://secret.cards/

Similar higher-than-rated-bandwidth can be achieved on the TRS-80 Model 100, which uses an array of 10 HD44102 controllers. With an FPGA it is possible to draw full motion video on the LCD: https://twitter.com/qrs/status/1092410264316653568

The WEH001602A is pin compatible to the HD44780, with OLED output instead of LCD. In 8-bit parallel mode with an FPGA you can exceed the recommended clock rate to drive quite a bit of data into the displays: https://twitter.com/qrs/status/1088240598971310081

A few years ago I built an adapter to allow classic Mac CRT's to be used with BeagleBone or Raspberry Pi systems ( https://trmm.net/Mac-SE_video). X11 has supported 1-bit mono displays since forever, so it mostly worked out of the box with well written programs.

Watching youtube videos in 1-bit is an amazing aesthetic. Unfortunately all of my videos of it were on vine, so this Muybridge-esque cat video seems to be the only one that I cross-posted to twitter: https://twitter.com/qrs/status/1045272076750401536
