      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.

        Are you thinking of Folding@Home?

          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.

            Hmmm I think that it might not be Folding@Home in that case. Sounds cool, though!

              IT LOOKED LIKE THIS https://archive.org/details/0x-0_20221225

              So it seems like BOINC or… SETI at home? Or what it was?

              Edit - I looked them up. They’re not going anymore it seems, ‘no longer distributing tasks’. Alas!

    Have you ever heard of this cool niche kernel? How was it called?.. Uhh, I think it was Lunix. Or was it Linux? Yeah, Linux!

    !linux@lemmy.ml

    Its userbase is pretty small, I bet nobody heard of it on such a tiny platform as the Threadiverse

    I want to plug the communities I created, but I’m always afraid that’s going to be a divisive comment. I have zero desire to really “moderate” anything, but I do have communities that I would love have some engaging conversations in, as well as places where people can exchange helpful info and advice. I am planning to make a community for cleaning and organizing tips and discussions.
