Europeans: is this something I'm too SCART to understand?

What? We have these in the European countries (Not "Europe")

Anything during the 90s to early 00s sold in Europe came with a SCART connector as the main AV connector. If it wasn't a direct-from-the-unit SCART cable, there would have been an adapter block to turn the RCA into SCART.

It wasn't uncommon for cheap TVs to only have RF and SCART.

Also "is this something I'm too X to understand" is a meme format, I'm aware of other connectors.

If I may interject here, but in actuality the system users are using is not, in fact, “Linux” but is actually GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux

Component, composite, s-video and stereo sound in one cable. Although it did mean that you'd have to be careful because a cable to something like a PS2 might only implement the lowest quality of them.
