Hehe, jealous Red Sox fan, j/k:lick: The theme is just a slight modification to Sapphire.

timdorr: The docks are DesktopX, version 1.1 i think.

Just thought I would throw this shot of an actual MacOSX desktop in for those who are still aiming towards making the most accurate copy of Aqua on their Windows desktop.. I thought about keeping quiet for a while and making out this WAS my windows desktop.. but I knew I would just end up getting nailed sooner or later :)

Heh.

Tell me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't this thread actually go under Neowin.net Board > Operating Systems > Support: Linux & Macintosh ?

I can understand if OSX isn't used enough to have it's own desktop thread. I guess XP users can spare the space...but it was my understanding that this thread was for WindowsXP machines that were skinned to match OSX.

I just think it's funny, and I'm certain someone will point out the error of my ways...but I had to post something.

Just my humble idea, but i use Litestep, and i recnetly stumbled across a new module for it which allows you to place shortcuts on your desk, with rollover and click effects, and it supports real XP alpha blended transparency, so wouldnt that let you run a realistic looking OSX dock? I dunno, cos ive never really been inot making an OSX machine with dock. However if someone can post an image of the dock with any rollover effects it might have etc. and ill tell you if its possible with this dll. Just an idea.

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance by David Uzondu Recently, the UK's Home Office announced a sweeping set of proposals to make Britain the "first country in the world" where children cannot share or view nude photos on their smart devices, an initiative that authorities claim will protect children from online predators and combat pornography. In response, Signal believes that while the government must keep children "safe" and "protected," it should do so through social services and education, not by "surveillance, funding cuts, and cover-ups." The company called the plan "dystopian" and warned that it violates everyone's fundamental right to privacy, arguing that scanning on the presumption of nudity will only strengthen the market dominance and data control of giant corporations like Apple and Google. The statement continues by accusing the government of hiding its true intentions under the guise of child safety. Signal argues that the Home Office is building an invisible surveillance infrastructure that remains ripe for exploitation by future administrations and authoritarian regimes. According to the company, this aggressive approach completely ignores the actual needs of young people, such as properly funded schools and mental health services. Tech companies like Apple and Google have a three-month window to implement these mandatory device-level filters across the United Kingdom. If these tech firms refuse to comply with the mandate, the government will pass emergency legislation to force them to comply, threatening massive fines and even going after the CEOs of these companies with criminal charges. The technology will work by blocking explicit images directly on the operating system of all smartphones and tablets by default. This system monitors the device camera and third-party apps to intercept nudity before anyone can upload or send the image. Adults can still view explicit content, but only after completing a strict age verification check to unlock their devices. Several bodies like the NSPCC and Barnardo's praised the Home Office's decision, arguing that device-level intervention stops the cycle of grooming before it starts. The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) also supported the policy, claiming that tech companies can implement on-device checks "without threatening privacy or collecting any data."
