Despite the fact that I enjoy seeing how other people configure their desktops, I have never posted mine here before. I intend to rectify that now. It doesn't change very much from month to month (other than the wallpaper) because I basically have it configured exactly how I want it.

GTK+ Theme: TaditionalOK (MATE's GTK3 variant of Clearlooks)

Window Border Color: #EDECEB

Input Box Color: #FFFFFF

Selected Item Color: #9A9A9A

Tooltips Color: #F5F5B5

Icon Theme: MATE-Faenza

Wallpaper: http://www.wallpapersbox.eu/data/media/867/Shore Waves Wallpaper 2560X1600.jpg

Nothing Special,

Xfce4 - Numix Theme - Faenza Icons - Alkano XCursors

Wallpaper found on Google

Im actually testing out Debian 7 and thinking of switching over from Arch purely because my power user setup disagrees with my better half who has now started using the desktop more often :p. Really need to work out if Steam will play nicely with my current setup first though, because i don't want to loose my gaming ability :D

switched from Xfce4 to DWM as it suits me better :)

Font: Envy Code R

SysInfo: Conky (showing each core usage of CPU / Loads / Mem / Down/Upspeed / Date & Time)

Wall found on google

Terminal: XTerm

Still in the process of working out the kinks in my custom DWM config.h and the colour scheme but you can't complain :)

    • RTD and Bad Wolf out Everybody lied, there was never a Christmas script done, even though they said there was RTD brought it back then killed it with the PC overload and garbage nonsensical stories Who knows what production company will want to drink from the poisoned chalice now. The squandered opportunity with the Disney partnership will go down in production folklore
    • Problem with that is Vivaldi is the slowest chromium browser I have ever used. I keep trying it every few months in case performance has improved. ...and it's not due to specs or config. 5900x/32gigs/RTX3080 here, Win 11 25H2 etc.
    • My only concern would be the state of the battery. I'd be getting one from a place you trust and perhaps has a decent warranty.
    • Like yourself Steven P I have watched it from the days of William Hartnell, It was good when we had the Darlek's and the Cybermen. Sad to see one of the longest running shows in the world die a sad death.  
    • My problem with FF is I have to jump through hoops to get at least somewhat close to what Vivaldi gives me out of the box, with no real advantage that would make it worth my while. (But hey, apparently there's now at least experimental support for HDR in FF. I mean it's about a decade too late, but still...finally!) Brave I was never the least interested in, never saw the point, not to mention there's been quite a bit of drama surrounding them over the years. But I've been a faithful and very happy Opera user all the way back to 2001(ish), so once Vivaldi showed up following that awkward period of time after the key people left Opera and the company was sold, I never really looked back. And they never once made me question my choices.
