@gracie was a reference to the poem "All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace" but yeah, that too

@foone I’m always in for a Brautigan reference.

[wavejumper3@tech.lgbt]

@foone is this death generator? Or how were they produced? Or screenshots of that one?

[foone@digipres.club]

@wavejumper3 They're mostly screenshots of the original OSes running in emulators. I used Visual Basic 6, Visual Basic.NET, Word Dialog Editor (from Office 4, I think?), and MUSH, the tool for controlling Agent characters like Clippy.

The DOS EDIT one is a lot of careful paint.net manipulation of pixels, combining a few screenshots while respecting the underlying text grid
