If you do not use your network at all, heres what you do. Right click on My Network, go to properties. Right click on your Network properties and disable it. Once its disable it will no longer show up in the tray and it shouldnt come back until you renable it. However if you use your network a lot then this probably is not your best solution. Otherwise you could always hide it, but then you have that pesky arrow.

this is my first attempt with completely dumping VSs and just hacking the registry. i'd like to give much thanks for aleni and virtualplastic.net for helping me out with all this stuff.

tell me what you think.

thanks.

Before I tell you what I think, remember, this is my personal opinion. What you think looks sweet may differ from my definition of sweet. ;)

But it's a bit much. Feels too crowded IMO. Also, there's something wrong with all that use of blue. I think it's the contrast between the blue used in the windows and stuff to the blue on the desktop. It just doesn't work.

I think the AOL icon (not, not AIM, AOL) deducts points too. ;)

I don't mean to be critical or anything, but you asked and all. :)

Seriously though, keep it up. Eventually you'll come to a point where you can look at it, and won't even notice it's there (which is what I think a good looking OS is... something that looks so good, that it just goes with everything).

Ya no kidding what is the a pc site or a bunch of mac osx wanna bes. I personally don't understand what every one sees in osx. I like xp and I don't think MS is evil.

maybe some people want to pretend they are using a Mac, but I know for myself it's only because I like the way some of the Mac visuals look kinda cool...

eventually, like with anything, it will fade i am sure.

i don't think MS is any more evil than anyone else, and I definitely love XP, if only for the fun of customizing.

I sure wouldn't mind if some of the Mac themes and styles would leave out the apple logo, but i am just too damned lazy to hack them out myself...

:D

Looks nice man. Do you have a link for tutorial on modifying the Webview. Or which file is it that you modify.

No tutorials really. I'm just doing it all by freehand. Heh.

If all goes well and I get enough feedback and maybe a little help, I may end up releasing my custom webview within this week (I most likely will anyway because I don't want to make you guys suffer without it for 2 weeks while I'm away, that and maybe someone else can improve on it while I'm gone).

i do have a small networking here.

i've changed its behaviour to 'always hide', but it still comes out.

i'm losing my temper for this...

    • 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.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
