A misbehaved dog runs around the desktop and makes mischief. The desktop in this case is Windows ME, it uses the real desktop with what ever files and folders may be on it at the time. The dog interacts with them and digs holes into the wallpaper, drags windows and moves items around on the screen. Someone off screen yells Bad Dog! every so often scolding the animal. Though that does not seem to stop the dog from stirring up mischief again.

Screen savers in the 1990s had a purpose, to stop screen burn in. Afterdark is a screen saver application released in 1989 and produced many versions of their screen saver app up through the 2000s. I will be showing off the various modules included in this thirty year old application (Version 4.0) released in 1996. Some may remember the Flying Toasters as a screen saver. Or maybe some other, but as an early Mac user myself these all bring back memories for me.
I run the screensavers on a Windows ME virtual machine, and capture the screen using OBS. Some of the screensavers crash, probably due to emulation of the virtual machine. But others run flawlessly. The computers during the days of these screen savers only had a few hundred megabytes of RAM and few hundred megahertz of processing power. Even with these constraints some amazing screensavers were designed by Berkeley Systems and Sierra.
