What's your sreensaver?
« on: June 28, 2009, 02:56:32 AM »
Going off what Quantos started what do you have to protect those LCD monitors of yours. Not that there really that relevant anymore. But hay most people have one.

Here's mine, obviously it does move down the screen it's not static.

Mulreay, did you rotate that 180?
The numbers on it are all backwards.

I actually don't use a screen saver, I've never found one that I don't get tired of.  As a result my screen just powers down.

There not numbers mate. It's the 'Matrix'. I've had this screensaver for about 2yrs and never get bored of it.

I know it's the Matrix, but yes, there are numbers in it.  Take a close look at the static image that you posted.  Some of the characters are numbers, and they all appear backwards.

<edit>  Except for the 8's and 0's of course, they look fine  :)  </edit>

Another Matrix Screen Saver uses glyphs which include reversed letters, numbers, and Japanese katakana characters.

Apparently they're supposed to be reversed, and there's letters too...

<edit>  Definately cool, I think I'm gonna try that one for a while.  Thanks man.  </edit>

No screen saver at all. All power options disabled. That matrix screensaver was the one on all the PCs in my old schools best computer lab :)
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

I seldom leave a screensaver active either because it interferes with games, moves, etc, and most of the time I just hibernate my laptop.

Thank you for your totally irrelevant message. Cool.
