#xscreensaver

[x11-official]

I was just this week introduced to xscreensaver and I gotta say those are some of the best screensavers I've ever seen.

I particularly liked "handsy," "BSOD," "sonar," and "unicrud."

Also can't believe the one called "rot zoomer" is from 2001 and not a reference to zoomers/brainrot

I love xscreensaver, and it's hilarious that the dev went off and now runs a nightclub in San Francisco.

HSTX DVI output on Fruit Jam! 🎨🖥️🎶🚀🔌

Woo! This xscreensaver-like demo shows random lines and colors displaying on a mini 7-inch HDMI monitor

7" Display 1280x800 (720p) IPS + Speakers - HDMI/VGA/NTSC/PAL

Yes, this is an adorable small HDMI television with incredibly high resolution and built in 3W stereo speakers! We tried to get the smallest

it's a 320x240 'pixel doubled' display that is running from the Fruit Jam, an RP2350-based mini computer board

But what's cool is that we're now using the HSTX interface rather than PIO+core bit-banging. That means we now have plenty of extra resources for running the USB host… which is still being worked on.

I know it's really distracting and has a noticeable impact on my productivity but I LOVE my screensaver!! it's sooo pretty and i love it :333

Never mind skull dude, fresh animated horror just dropped!

(No idea what they're calling that, since I do indeed have xscreensaver set to randomly cycle through whatever it's got. Mostly for nostalgia and giggles.)

my screen saver just made a bi flag on accident I think

I've learned that the XScreenSaver screensaver "Strange" will utterly break if you use it in combination with an X compositor like Compton.

I've set the source text for my computer's copy of XScreenSaver to its own executable.
