Yeah, screensavers are quite pointless, especially since computers
come out of suspend so quickly. There's no necessity to them anymore,
so it's no surprise that most people don't use them. In fact,
Microsoft has made it pretty hard even to get to screensaver settings
in Windows 11. Arguably, they're even counter productive, since they
waste electricity. But they're pretty. ;-)
