Michael looks so tame in that Video from 2011 compared to nowadays :D

I used a CRT monitor for maybe 3-5 years in my childhood until LCD took over which didn't necessarily need to be saved from burn in (until oled reintroduced this issue lol), but I remember the good old pipes buildup or the labyrinth screensavers from Windows 95/98. We were fascinated by these as children.

This 'screensaver' won't be able to save anything though. It's a static image with enormous contrast and sharp edges, so worst case scenario. Screensavers have become more of an art form or way to express oneself (or opinions like with this one i guess). Steam has a pretty extensive library for backgrounds and screensavers i think. Im just not a fan of too much movement on my screen. My eyes are kind of spoiled by high refresh rates and true color oled displays, but that being said, images on an e-ink display just hit different. It almost looks like its printed.

made it a little cleaner with a different copyright logo, this time from fontawesome (also attribution license lol: https://fontawesome.com/icons/copyright?f=classic&s=regular ):

Also, here is the new SVG: https://files.catbox.moe/etvhnk.svg

Doesn't work for me, seems pretty dead. All the others i tried just convert it to png.

Copyleft is great, i use it for code or bigger stuff i publish. I just thought it would be funny as hell if someone down the line wants to change the license or use this commercially.

Might as well share the SVG if someone tells me how to :)

 

The original icons are these:

The copyright logo is CC0 licensed (public domain), but the original bone has a CC attribution license, so i thought might as well link the copyright logo as well. Surely this is the kind of attention they had hoped for lol.

While I'm at it (not that it matters much here on the high seas), this work shall hereby be CC0 (public domain) licensed as well.
