If you're German-speaking: "Klopilot" and "Vibrierkot" are some modern day personal favorites.

On a similar, nostalgic note, I recall boot screens for "Sinnlos 98" floating around, back when modifying the bootup logo was a thing.

Ok, Vibrierkot is something for the German shitpost communities with all my Zuhausis im Zwischennetz.
