    I remember this thing way way way back when, and it was mentioned in the news? It had some kind of really neat visualization thing screensaver? Lines and lines of colors, with some spikes, going from further back towards the viewer and…

    I couldn’t find that part again. I loved that, need the useless neat part

      Many of the BOINC projects these days don’t have screensavers unfortunately. But World Community Grid and Rosetta@home have decent ones.

        I am absolutely unsure, and think any information I have about it comes from like 20 years ago. Is it that old? I thought it was pretty old. I remember a news report about it, like on the TV proper. The screensaver was like…little bars of color coming towards the camera, continuously going forward until it filled up and restarted. The spike bars were meant to be like…the data from outerspace. If there was a tall bar, it could be anomalous!

        I have an extremely shitty memory, so this is exactly all the information I have.
