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.
