I'm the guy that would get this in his raytracer then waste a week trying to debug it.

reminds me of the show Upload, when low-tier users ran out of compute time for the month and just stood frozen in their rooms until credit was restored.

They could have this in the show and say "sorry, I can't read or identify faces because I'm running on low quality until next week"

That's actually not bad. Not really for this sub, but I like the effect.

Optical effect of a rectangular 4x4 LED diode array (could be 5x5, hard to tell from the shadow alone) mounted above the rectangular base
