Basically the code tells the gpu what to turn the pixels on your screen into.

Like going upto an artist and saying "Here, use this paint and make this."

Or like writing lines of code to make a bot for posting to a forum.

I'm sure I've seen that text before... and not just here.

Hmm... well, I decided to look at the user page for clues. Found out the first video is WGWJ, which I don't remember as a video. Did a google search for WGWJ Loading Ready Run and the first result lead to a post about selling an Xbox 360 created by a strangly similarly named user who edited their sig to have spam links well after they posted...

So yea, I'm going with a bot.

The bot hypothesis seems rather likely. Alas, if one were to post this stuff on gamedev or stackex or similar, it'd probably pass as a legitimate human being.
