Clean indeed, get yourself some bloomin' icons already. Example below from my Mac Mini:

Well... actually i dont need much more than already shown in the dock, as my mini is primarily used for movies and such :)

Wallpaper please :)

Been modding a fair few files in Snow Leopard to create the HUD look. I ported Calibri to use as the system font, inverted and raised the brightness to get a 'grayish' look in the menubar icons, changed the menubar to my liking of color, and geektool for the desktop. Next thing I need to touch up is my dock and icons :)

Mine with the recently sought after (By me), transparent icon.

I am still messing with various backgrounds to give it the best look, but this is the start of something I hope to really make look good.

Wallpaper is from interfacelift

I have to say, I am a fan of all these desktops. In general, users seem to keep them much cleaner. I am also quite interested in those interesting applications running on the top bar. It looks like there happens to be a lot of neat little utilities.

Oh how I wish I had a Mac ... Perhaps I will go buy a copy of snow leopard and try a hackintosh. It'd be a neat intellectual exercise. Having a real terminal will be nice. I do quite a bit of bash scripting for a living.

The keyboard shortcut for the full-screen snapshot is Command + Shift + 3, and to take a snapshot of a selection it's Command + Shift + 4. I kinda dig your wallpaper, though. Care to share a link? =]

BTW thanks man, hitting CTRL was the reason it wasn't saving!

    • too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
