neat. why not screenshot and tesseract (videos/images/viewport/etc)

anyone notice the jokes they put in?

purplecats··on Rats Play DOOM
i think its just people being out of touch with reality. perhaps engineering minds not thinking enough product. its too commonplace for me to even complain about. someone builds something primarily visual - a robot, a GUI application, etc. and links to their github/etc but they ensure that there are no visuals included.

why dont they show you it in use? seems like an obvious thing.
