Epic asciimation time!
« on: August 14, 2011, 12:02:48 am »
This is really old, but it's still amazing:

It's really long. I haven't even watched the whole thing O.O

I wonder how long that took to make!

Yeah it was there years ago, I used to watch it with telnet.

Code: [Select]
telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
Some people even thought it was a Windows XP easter egg.

You can also type this into command prompt:
telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
It isn't the same version.

We can fit it on the nspire if there was a 4px wide font, i think standard terminals are 80 characters wide.
