Show HN: Antimemetic message that escapes screen capture
The message is clearly visible, but it cannot be screen captured. (Or just pause the effect with click/tap.)
I think this TV static effect is more realistic than others on the web:
- Wide CRT "pixel" aspect ratio
- Larger "grains" (to match low CRT resolution)
- CRT "scan lines" (Toggle with 'C' key)
When I attempted this effect many years ago, it didn't seem possible without GPU shaders. With advances in hardware/JS performance, the CPU can easily blast a higher resolution (2560x1440) at 1000 FPS. (ENTER key to go into fullscreen mode)

Customize the message with url param: https://fx.leftium.com/static?text=HN
(To see all options: 'U' key copies URL to clipboard and also outputs to dev console.)

Ask HN: Encouraging a child's gaming PC build despite fear of gaming addiction?
12yo son is doing dedicated research on gaming PC parts and binge-watches videos on how to build (he's not a native English speaker and has no real electronics skills, so this is quite impressive tbh). Me the dad, however, fears that I'm witnessing a FPS addict being born.
What's a good Middle Way here? Kid actually building the machine all by himself -- 100% yes, even if it's quite expensive; kid then Counter Striking, Call of Dutying etc for hours on dat 27" screen -- ugh!
What complicates things is that I myself am more of a "computational minimalist" using 15 year old machines in a cli-only environment etc. I've tried to show him That Path also ("dude, here's some Turbo Pascal for ya!"), but, well, obviously he's preferring those addictively engineered and GPU-hungry multiplayer games with his friends any day.
He's a good kid all in all, actively engaged in competitive rowing, with good grades etc. Plays chess also (but all the other folks are FPSing or Minecrafting, so there's that).
Being a gamer (and using ridiculously overpowered hardware) may well be just a stage of a teen's life, possibly even necessary to go through in order to understand that you don't really "need" all of this in you adult life. I do feel, however, that the fear of growing a computer gaming vegetable out of one's Good Kid is a little more than just overprotective dad syndrome these days. (I'm afraid the gaming industry mostly wins. And, with real-world war going on in Ukraine, I fooking can't stand watching him actually using those ultra-realistic knives or pump action guns for, well, killing "terrorists" as a recreational activity...)
Those of you facing (or having faced) a similar situation, what have you done? Thanks!
