Found the shot on Flickr, you should check the gallery of that guy! He got some great shots (http://www.flickr.com/photos/aleksivic/)

 

This guy has some awesome shots! Thanks for sharing.

After a BSOD- and glitch-filled stint with Windows 8.1 the last two days I've switched back to 7 and updated the look.

 

One thing I never understood is why there aren't more people using a left- or right-docked taskbar. It wastes much less empty taskbar space) and gives you back your precious vertical space. Less scrolling! More lines of code!

(I really love this wallpaper.)

 

Also found a rather nice Eclipse theme (finally something less ugly!)

Figured I'd upate.  Installed Xubuntu on a computer the other day and found I really like the feel of the new XFCE.  I'd piddled around in it before but it seemed like it never had many of the features I really wanted from a full fledged desktop environment.  This new version though seems like it has every feature of Gnome 2 I ever missed after the advent of Gnome 3 and Unity.  I think I'll stick with this one for a while.

Cant figure out how to make it "cleaner"

Pin Spotify to your task bar, hide the Norton system tray icon and move the random stuff on your desktop to the documents folder... job done?

Also nice background :)

I shall do that!

 

What you mean by that?  your desktop looks good..

I get jealous when some people have like two folders and that's it haha.

I understand.. Mine has no icons on desktop... only on the taskbar. :)

 

You can create folders on desktop.. and name them anything you like.. such as Games, Internet, etc..  so you could move the icons to the specific folder.

 

Or you can use most used icons on the taskbar and the rest in the program menu.

Shots of my Desktop and Start Screen.

 

The background image is a shot I captured with my HTC One X of a conference room where I taught an English class, weeks ago.

 

I had my Start Menu items separated and categorized but I like them all together (perhaps messy and cluttered) because it's more similar to the WP default tile arrangements. Click on the image to have a look a all the tiles from beginning to end.

    • I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.
    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
