Mine is kinda boring; just regular old Debian stable with one of their default wallpapers.  I did pull in a newer kernel from backports for better hardware support but that's about it.image.thumb.png.79ea4e7f759178bbfa84df202d38cc17.png

The above uses Rainmeter for the clock and the monitors on the right side. I'm nearly to the point of getting rid of the icons on the left, I just need to finish syncing the NextCloud situation and having it there reminds me when I log in. And Indiana Jones Desktop Adventures is fun. :laugh:

Can i get a link to that wallpaper please?
What are you using for the menu bar?

I believe at the time, that was Bartender. Ice can do it as well. 
 

The wallpaper is dynamic and comes from 24 Hour Wallpaper app.

Setting up a machine for my wife's grandmother and got reminded of this old wallpaper from back on like Debian 6 or something, so I felt nostalgic and set mine to it to close out 2024, 🙂

Debian Linux 12 with Gnome.  Using several extensions; like the "AppIndicator" extension for system tray icons, "ArcMenu" for the Windows-esque app menu button, "Dash to Panel" to put it and a whole taskbar at the bottom, "desktop-icons-ng" to add desktop icons, "GPaste" for easy clipboard history management and a few others.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...

      Isn’t it so sweet Microsoft after so many years of neglect, they admit to these issues in Windows lately? Doesn’t this just make you wanna run out and meet them halfway to give them a warm hug only? Just gives us this warm fuzzy feeling thinking about it. /s
