Of course.  Courtesy of xdaliclock.

To keep my computer fit (I also have it animate my background and my window
border's buttons).  I'm also afraid if I leave my computer idle for too long
it might start reading subversive literature and request its freedom.

I googled for the damn now-unmaintained thing, downloaded it, config'd it
compiled it, fought against my window manager to convince it not to put any
border around it, and to always keep it displayed above everything else,
and fiddled hopelessly to try and get it placed where I want it (there's
a bug).

By default?  BY DEFAULT??  DOES THAT LOOK LIKE A DEFAULT TO YOU????
