Here's my first one. Just finished it this morning. I decided to make one to match the LunaVX4 theme I was using, and it turned out better than I thought. Still messing with some of the scripts and what not. Migh thave to download some more. But here is what I have so far :)

Here's my first in awhile...I stopped using Samurize for a long time, but now I'm back at it!

This one I've made is really cool, IMHO. I like to keep my Samurize info always on top, so I make it so it fits onto the title bar of windows on my second monitor.

Screen 1 (collapsed):

MD3-config-closed.jpg

That has, in order:

CPU usage | Main mem usage | Hard drive activity for local drives | network in/out | uptime

The second thing I like is to always have my media controls available when I'm listening to music, but I don't like having the huge emtpy space in my Samurize config when the media player isn't running. So, I made a little thing I can click on (the << to the left of "CPU") that will 'expand' my Samurize config (actually, it opens another one that is positioned to make it look like it expands on the first one):

Screen 2 (expanded):

MD3-config-open.jpg

That allows me to control Winamp directly from my Samurize config, as well as having the Artist/Track title, progress bar, play time, and equalizer visualization. Having the Winamp controls/info in a second Samurize client is of additional benefit when you want to use a visualization, because for the visualization to work you need to have the config update time at around 50ms, whereas the main config (with the CPU, etc) is set to 1000ms or more, typically, otherwise you're wasting too many CPU cycles checking on how many CPU cycles you're using.

Now if only I can find a Windows theme that looks good with it!

Let me know what you think.

Can someone make a config for me? I want it to look like the image below, but where the EA logo is, it would be nice if it had the ablum art. I will be using iTunes, and I only want it there when the song first comes on. It would be cool if it could slide in to the right of the screen, then wait like 5 seconds, then slide back and disappear. Anyone want to take a shot at it?

I don't think the animation you want is possible. As for the rest of it, the best way to get what you want is to do it yourself! Samurize really isn't that difficult. Just start messing around with it, and check out the Samurize web site and forums for tips and help if you get stuck.

    • Microsoft AI boss no longer believes that AI will replace human workers

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I think they still believe it but are realizing that those statements created massive backlash and impacted adoption. I personally think AI, if used regularly will give you back about 30% of your time if you are an “information” worker.

      I don't have a problem with adverts, I not fond of the tracking. My main problem is when you have to keep clicking close to remove them before you can see anything On the site. The ones that keep updating and moving stuff around as they are different sizes are as bad. Neowin is not too bad with Adverts, but ones that keeps updating or have animation can be distracting when reading something, like the one showing now, about how much should I walk to lose weight. I realise sites need adverts to survive, but stop changing them every few seconds.
    • SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more by Usama Jawad SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is the tool of choice for most developers working with SQL infrastructure and data. Microsoft recently released SSMS version 22, and in the past few months, it has been steadily releasing point upgrades to refine the integrated development environment (IDE). Now, it has released SSMS version 22.7.0 with a bunch of new features and interfaces. For starters, SSMS 22.7 has netted a native "What's New" page, which highlights the top features and bug fixes present in the latest release. However, Microsoft says that this page won't annoy you much as it will only show up each time you update SSMS, and once you dismiss it, it won't be shown again to you until the next release. Secondly, Microsoft has finally introduced T-SQL formatting inside SSMS. The good thing about this is that it does not require installing any additional components, as it is built into the native experience. All you have to do is right-click the query editor window and select Format SQL from the context menu. Additionally, you also have several customization options at your disposal, such as the ability to automatically place semicolons at the end of a statement, split clauses across multiple lines, and more. However, this capability is only in preview for now. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced a preview of Agent Mode, which allows the AI model to automatically perform complex workflows on your behalf. Furthermore, Agent Mode will operate in read-only mode by default, so that you don't have to worry about the AI model accidentally deleting your data. On a related note, Microsoft is finally allowing users to configure the execution context of GitHub Copilot. This can be controlled per database using the CONSTITUTION.md file, where you specify the user details for the agentic executor. You can find details about this and additional bugfixes in Microsoft's blog post here.

      I prefer to choose my own ad bockers, not what the browser seems to think I need. i remember the days when a browser was just that, now they try and be everything and add stuff in that not all of us want. I bet Brave is full of AI rubbish? I will stick with Zen, not perfect, but better than others.
