I greatly enjoy the concept of the Useless Machine. A thing made for the joy of it.
It might do nothing at all and just look neat, or it could do something over and
over that doesn't provide any "value". But it does provide value.
Because I look at it and I smile and that's enough.
That's all to say, I made a set of useless things. Just a few GIF that count to some
numbers. The greatest of which is nearly half a gigabyte large and would take over
a week to watch.
