genact

Nonsense activity generator that makes your terminal look busy with fake realistic-looking output.

Desktopfreeglobal

A command-line desktop tool that generates realistic-looking fake terminal output—compiling, downloading, or “hacking”—to make a terminal appear busy without running real tasks. It fills the need for a lightweight, no-install utility for demos, pranks, or ambient techy backdrops aimed at developers and casual users; prebuilt binaries are provided for common platforms and the project is available under the MIT license for self-hosted use.
