Have you tried adjusting the Fresten Valve?

Or you could try checking the Proprietating Pickler....

New FR Server Room.

That looks suspiciously like the Rove Weather Machine.

“New FR Server Room.”

Great picture! ...but I think that’s actually a pic of IBM’s first attempt at making a laptop PC.

LOL Your image is a photo-shopped combo of what appears to be an IBM 360 main-frame computer input/printer station from the late 60s/early 70s. The background controls and indicators are a mock up of the S5W reactor & engineering plant controls from a nuclear submarine of the same era, from a Smithsonian exhibit a few years back.

The left panel (with the throttle wheels) is the SPCP (steam plant control panel); center is the RPCP (reactor plant control panel); the right panel is the EPCP (electric plant control panel). I know it well, as my watch station on 2 subs was the RPCP. Can't speak to the TV, but I never saw one in either the sub environment, or on the 360 computer floor where I once did duty.

Thats a very interesting photo there. If one had worked on a Navy Nuclear sub, one may recognize it....just saying.
