This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

doesn't bother me because anyone snooping deserves to be traumatized. However, it's linux, I'm sure there's a setting for that.
There's no less than two GUI for that setting, because the two devs got mad at each other and forked it. Only one GUI actually work, but it's not the one that your distro ships with. Once you manage to compile the right GUI, you'll find that in your version, because you didn't get the optional libs from an obscure Russian website that's been static since 2007, it only works if you run it right after killing the screensaver timing process. Otherwise you have to edit an undocumented .config file, and do it everytime you reboot your system... Unless you remember that there's a special variant of vi to edit the screensaver config file.

I love Linux, but sometimes I don't feel the love go both ways.
Yeah, found it under screensaver settings, 2nd tab.
