First step was the BasicBlack screen saver which does simply turn the screen black. Usefull for my iBook as the display needs less power to display just black than anything different.
How to Install: Open your user folder. There is a folder called Library. Inside this folder there should be a folder named “Screen Savers”. If there is no such folder, create one. Drop the *.saver file to the folder named “Screen Savers”.
Ach du lederhosen! Normally my trusty tinfoil suit would shield me from such creeping horrors, but I always take a bath on Fridays — yes, whether I need one or not! — and it takes awhile for my thick and lustrous pelt to dry, leaving me vulnerable to the alien space rays and insane German software developers.
The fragrant fecal deposit known as BasicBlack is also available in two other unexpected flavors, BasicWhite and BasicTransparent, both of which have the marginal advantage of not actually being the default screensaver of your garden variety Macintosh. Unfortunately, even the lilliputian charms of these lackluster creative spurts are spoilt by their origination in the hottest fondue pots of REALbasic hell.
Oh, Monkeybread Software, you may titillate the luscious ladies with your sexy syntax, but you’ll never survive the honeymoon. It is with an insignificant amount of regret that we hand over this hefty wurst-smeared 11.0 and loose the hungry Rottweilers.

Posted by: panic on February 27, 2004 09:45 PMWhat's funny is that for an LCD screen (such as the author of BasicBlack's iBook), white is the off state.
Posted by: John on February 27, 2004 10:15 PMUh...these aren't made with REALbasic. Get yer head out of yer ass, chumley.
Posted by: Anonymous Twat on February 28, 2004 12:09 AMIt's like, "How much more black could this be?", and the answer is none. None more black.

Pass me a tissue, nurse. My psoriasis is typified by red scaly patches.
Is that cheese? May I have some?
Bless you.

Posted by: µø˜˚´¥ on February 28, 2004 07:53 AMAt least it's freeware, so they're charging what it's worth...
Posted by: Uncertain Future on February 28, 2004 09:01 AMYou all suck. Except for David Valley with his cunning use of a Spinal Tap reference and of course Aussie, becuase, well... he's fucking Aussie.
Oh yeah and I don't suck either based on heretofore unmentioned criteria. Also anybody with the word Future in their name is free of suckage.
But anyone with the word Twat in their name is right out. Get back to your suckery, you Twat.

Said, "Immature posts make me sick"
He went on to say,
(in a humorous way)
That none of them really know dick!
I agree with Nick, they all suck.
I remember the old days, working the Catskill lodges with Ladd and Naomi. It was a hoot when they brought Baby Jan out in his diapers and poured the jam on his head. Everybody thought they were a hoot. When they moved to radio, they invented the whole 'comment' thing. The creme de la creme called in to say funny stuff. Hell, Jack Benny called in at least once a week! The bit that Naomi and Charlie McCarthy did together is in the frigging Smithsonian collection, for G--'s sake.
The computer seasons are another story. I told Ladd, I said "Laddie boy, the language, the sex stuff... it stinks. Go back to basics, hell, Jan likes jam!" No, he said, computers were the future.
Yeah, so now he's working the salmon boats, and Naomi is a kielbasa tester, and Baby Jan is working Times Square for Smuckers. I'm right a lot of the time.
Yes, Nick, you're a very smart man. I think I like you a lot.

Posted by: theone on February 29, 2004 07:38 AMWhat's with this Lederhose stuff? I vastly prefer leather pants. Much less chafing around the antennae openings.
Posted by: Uncertain Future on February 29, 2004 10:02 AMAfter a quick visit here, I just realized that Perversion Tracker is a place where a bunch of douchies that just can't cut it on slashdot hang out. Maybe it's like a training ground for loserdom. Crap, kiddies, I just heard your bell..recess is over.
Posted by: Slasher on February 29, 2004 10:34 AMHello Future Billy Mays Here:
Now that I have future in my name am I non-sucky now?
Posted by: Future Billy Mays on February 29, 2004 10:42 AMThanks Nick and Slasher. I have always wanted to suck and be a resident of loserdom. Is slashdot a place where people go when they can't figure out how to use R***b****?
Posted by: Bozo Nono on February 29, 2004 11:16 AMSlash*** is for people who can't get a date with a fancy chicken.
Posted by: shawk on February 29, 2004 12:51 PMThe quality of posts continues to rise, keep it up my perversiontracking lads and lass'. Let me clear a few things up in the meantime.
1. Billy - You are off the list.
2. I only smell like farts occasionally.
3. For the love of St. Andrew the Scot, can we get Jan some jam.
4. Slashdot can burn in the fiery depths of hell. Shawk is right.
5. fuddes and Shecky are also off the list.
I have a big weiner.

Sometimes I wish I could derive trite statements from clearly defined axioms, but then I realize I'm not a stolid and bitter person who's being overwhelmed by my own self-loathing and I go have a beer with my friends.
Posted by: Nick on February 29, 2004 06:37 PMGod is Love
Love is Blind
Ray Charles is Blind
Therefore:
Ray Charles is God
Regardless of whether or not Ray Charles is God, your grasp of logic is seriously flawed.
Posted by: longdongsilver on February 29, 2004 09:39 PMThere's a flaw in your logic, as the definitions are one way (i.e. God is Love does not mean Love is God). All you've proven is that both Love and Ray Charles are Blind, and extrapolating this, God is Blind. There's nothing there about God being Ray Charles. If I had to put my money on it though, I'd say God is a Fancy Chicken, a Blind Fancy Chicken.
Posted by: Fringe on March 1, 2004 07:36 AMWhat, no screen shot? How, then, am I to fairly evaluate this potentially life-changing piece of computer software?
Posted by: Earnest Sedgewick on March 1, 2004 09:23 AMWhy is it my comments about you all being really immature getting deleted? Is GW the webmaster here?
Posted by: Censored on March 1, 2004 03:09 PMMaybe we just don't like you. You ever think about that? Hmmmm?
