What is the media player in the "Oh no not more blue" screenshot.

It looks like an improved on Muine... if it is, what kind of configuration are you using.

It's Pygmy, an mpd client.

Nice shot (as usual), do you have a "How To" on installing Openbox on Arch?

I would like to try out Arch and Openbox as the PC I use Linux on isn't the fastest

Umm, how about "pacman -S openbox". Voila! Openbox is now installed. Rejoice!

Here's mine for Feb.

It's Ubuntu Breezy, using an SVG wallpaper from gnome-wallpapers and a gradient colour background. Icons are Tango Unofficial. GTK is the latest CVS patched Clearlooks enabling animations and cairo goodness :)

I'm using just the one panel with the Deskbar Applet for quickly finding apps / files, and NetworkManager CVS to connect to my wifi (Works better than XP on the same laptop!!).

Your interface looks incredibly MacOSX-like, yet you claim to be running Suse linux.. what themes, window manager and dockbar are you using there?

Great shots, anyway :)

Suse Linux 10.0

Kde/Kwin 3.5

Much of the work is done by baghira, cvs version -

http://baghira.sourceforge.net/OS_Clone-en.php#step1

"Finder" is konqueror with the baghira sidebar and OS-L icons (linked in the above tutorial)

"Mail" is Thunderbird with Tiger Mail skin - https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo....ion=thunderbird

"Safari" is Firefox with Safire skins - http://www.deviantart.com/view/20457909/ http://www.deviantart.com/view/19147285/?offset=100 with some userchrome edits to get the gradient toolbar and tabs.

"Dock" is Ksmoothdock - http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=6585 with the background colours changed to suit.

    • NVIDIA AI Trained Itself on a 30B Model: Corrected Its Own Broken Metric Mid-Run

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm
    • Elon Musk, The New King of Adult Content

      Grok Adult Content Tops 10 Billion Images Monthly More than half of all traffic flowing through Grok, Elon Musk's flagship AI product, now comes from users requesting pornographic images, explicit videos, and **** roleplay https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319142/20260626/grok-adult-content-tops-10-billion-images-monthly-xai-engineers-admit-csam-has-no-fix.htm
    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      By naap51stang · Posted

      If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      By naap51stang · Posted

      Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
