GTK: Human

Wallpaper: Ubuntu 6.06

Window Border: Frozen

Icons: Human (changed the Ubuntu logo to a pair of feet just to make sure I don't think this is Ubuntu because it is NOT, it's still Fedora Core 5, but I just show alleigence to my former kind by using their beautiful artwork!

If you don't use Ubuntu Dapper and would like the new artwork, download my new package:

Frozen (contains my metacity theme, it's GTK colored:

Since tristan asked I thought I'd post the info on my desktop (two posts up) here... I probably should have done that anyway, but oh well.

Window decoration is Knifty

Icon set is Crystal Clear

Wallpaper is the default Dapper wallpaper (I think?), I got it from Viper's Ubuntu art package

The dock-like thing is Superkaramba running a modified DynBar theme

Firefox theme is Mostly Crystal

Umm... and I think that's about it.

Giving XFCE 4.2 a spin (since I couldn't get 4.4 to work...)

Window Manager: ClearLooks 2.0

GTK2: ClearLooks 2 - Ubuntulooks Engine

Wallpaper: Golden Harmonics

Icons: Tango

Bah, that's nice, but don't judge XFce on the usage of 4.2, the new version offers so much more :)

KDE 3.5.3

XGL with compiz

WOW!

You have won my first ever June "Best XGL Desktop" award, THAT IS THE BEST XGL-Based SETUP I'VE EVER SEEN!!!1!1 Man, my newer computer can run XGL (as I found out with that Live CD), but the computer I run Linux on is half as powerful, and has an older ATI video card...

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
