Did anyone watch that show NEXT from the people who made 24? I might have been the only one, I’ve never seen anyone ever talk about it. There was a plot point where the evil Alexa tried to convince a kid who was being bullied to bring a gun to school and shoot his bully, and provided the kid with the keycode to dad’s gun safe… it was pretty wild.

I saw it, it wasn't bad. So of course it was cancelled after the first season.

The more I think about it, the better I remember it. I think I’m going to watch it again.

Fun unrelated fact. In French, pipe means either a smoking pipe or a bj.

I love this screensaver. You can install it on newer machines if you know where to look.

ramenshaman ,

Because of this post and your comment I now have it once again. Thank you.

Doombot1 ,

I’ve had it on my daily driver for 6 or 7 years now and it makes me smile every time I see it even still. Reminds me of my childhood :)

I’ve seen an even better screensaver back then, and I’m wondering what happend to it. It featured a small sandy island with a palm tree and a stranded guy. This guy would regularly go behind the palm tree, get something out of an insanely bottomless invisible warehouse, build something from the stuff to leave the island, fail, and return to rest position.

Does anyone have an idea what it was called and whether it is still around somewhere?

A search tells me it was Johnny Castaway, and yes I do also remember it. screensaversplanet.com/…/johnny-castaway-237/

Treczoks ,

Thank you! I’ve seen that this thing would work under Wine, so I can actually see it live!

doesntfuckingmatter ,

Was there also another one with a guy that ran around and had dynamite or something?

When openGL was developed for 3d graphics in Windows, there was not yet any Software to showcase its capabilities. So the internal Microsoft team held a competition for procedural 3d graphics using the new technology. They looked amazing, but served no real function… Which made them perfect for screensavers!

Psythik , (edited )

I had no idea that Microsoft made those screensavers. Now I’m wondering why they* would make software for the direct competitor to DirectX.

Here is a more detailed blog post I found. I hope I got the details right!

They still needed to support OpenGL on the platform due to so much other software using it.

Yes, Lynda Carter played Wonder Woman in the original live action movies.

She’s also a delightful person; I have worked with her several times, and she was extremely kind every single time.
