    Wow, they were spot on. Amazing.

    Well, one time in 2016 I did acid and spent hours watching Windows screensavers. That’s basically what they’re describing.

      What were your favorites? I feel like we lost an entire genre of art now that nobody uses screensavers anymore.

      Edit: And music visualizers too, but a good chunk of those have been saved by (I think it’s called) Milkdrop, so you can still use them in modrrn FOSS music programs.

          Yeah, pipes was awesome. The LTT shop has a button up with it as the pattern, but I can’t justify $50 + shipping for a single button up shirt. And the drama from years ago as reported by GamersNexus etc makes me hesitate to give them money anyway.

          Another one I love is the old 3d maze from Windows 95 or 98. I swear I remember details about it that it doesn’t actually have though.
