Yep, I’m in it for the fun.

Thanks, those are pretty awesome. Glad I’m not the only one overly nostalgic for these old screensavers. Looks like I misremembered the name though, I’ll have to update my documentation.

Glad you like it. I’m trying to figure out if I can get it to function as a screensaver using xautolock. I just need to figure out how to get it to fullscreen the new terminal window opened by my bash script before running asciiskyline.

Similar boat. It helps to have someone who is willing to (kindly and patiently) call you out on it, with the understanding that it’s what you want them to do. Good luck, stay strong and be confident that acknowledging the issue and wanting to change are huge steps you’ve already taken

Never got into Doom, but man I love me a game that has no prep lag. Open game, start playing. Glorious

Agreed, I love this part of long drives to out of the way destinations. Definitely better in older cars without obnoxious touch screens.

I enjoy some games that can simulate this too, like Elite Dangerous scooting around in the lander on the dark side of some barren planet deep in uninhabited space. Not the same as the real thing of course, but I still enjoy it.

Hobbes will avenge him

Granted I was pretty young, but I friggin loved the ColecoVision. It had a respectable game library and Zaxxon in particular was the stuff. I remember my mom playing Ladybug (Pacman clone) frequently.

Welp. Guess I’m spending the rest of my evening looking for an emulator.

I’m just here to point out that the image looks like a sand crawler. Utinni!

Ubuntu 8.04, Hardy Heron. I miss loving Ubuntu
