I've not got a Mac yet, however, I was just wondering how people are getting which song they are currently playing on their desktop?

I know Dashboard doesn't let you place gadgets directly on the desktop constantly all the time, right?

So I'd like to know how you've all made it possible. It looks nice :)

Bowtie (free) and CoverSutra (?15) are two of the most popular options.

they are always on top then, though, iirc, which made me personally not use widgets on my desktop... ;)

True, but if you have a big enough screen or multiple screens it shouldn't be a problem. I use a package tracking widget, and I put it on my far right display.

but you, sir, have 2 20" and one 30" cinema displays plus the 15" screen of your macbook so i would consider you an exeption. :p

How do you guys like Bowtie? I'm thinking about giving it a shot. What exactly does it do? :)

Bowtie is very nice - much like coversutra in the sense that it sets on your desktop and shows all the info for that song. I like it for the customization that is out there - there are tons of skins already for it. Give it a shot

This is true. :laugh: I wish Apple would make a way so that they don't always have to be on top. Maybe make them act like regular application windows?

...or do it like microsoft did, simply make it addable to your regular desktop... would be nice for sticky notes or something which would be the only thing id use outside of dashboard.

but maybe they add it with snow leopard and we dont know about that yet. =)

I hope they have it in Snow Leopard. That would be a pretty cool feature. :yes:

I have a half-assed theme going on. I've had a quick look for icons that go with it but I've only found the odd ones.

Can anyone help suggest dock icons that'd accompany the colour scheme? :o

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
