Click to imbiggen.

Icons on the bottom row may be changing soonish as I just got my copies of Design and Production Suites CS 5. :happy:. Icons are arranged in order of frequency of use though.

Only showing primary monitor as the secondary monitor is ..well, .. just a black background.

What wallpapers are you two using?

Clean

My OS X laptop. Running Snow Leopard. Stats at the bottom of the screen are shown via GeekTool. Dock has been modded to take up less space.

Dirty

Programs in the screenshot:

Cornerstone Subversion client. I find it useful for browsing svn logs and for diffing changes between commits. I wish that there were tools of similar quality for Git and Mercurial.

VMWare Fusion. My web development virtual machine runs Linux. Windows XP is for testing in IE.

I keep my todo notes in TaskPaper. I also have TaskPaper on my iPhone and iPad and my notes get synced to all my devices over the air.

Terminal

post-67054-12853137052925.png

I interact with the terminal a lot. So I've installed Visor and have bound Cmd + Esc to it. Press Cmd + Esc, and the terminal window slides down. Makes for quick access from any virtual desktop.

Each terminal tab is a session on a different box. I run tmux inside each tab. This gives me a tiling window manager for each session.

Second Monitor / Virtual Desktop

post-67054-12853137246667.png

If I'm using dual monitors, the second monitor usually runs MacVim in fullscreen mode. If I'm only connected to one monitor, I run MacVim in a different virtual desktop.

What's that Terminal/vim theme?

What's that Terminal/vim theme?

Terminal theme is IR Black. I've modified it a bit.

Vim colour scheme is one of my own. I call it vy2:

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By Talys · Posted

      I am not a fan of haptic feedback touchpads. I've owned a Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon) with one and a Lenovo Slim (Intel), and I hated both to the point where I purchased different laptops. It's not that they don't work most of the time; it's that they don't work 100% of the time, and there is no advantage from a user's perspective over a good mechanical trackpad like what's on a ThinkPad X1 or a Yoga 9i. I do not believe that I'll buy another haptic feedback touchpad laptop again in the near future.

      Works fine here too. About this build, I don't like to download any kind of Windows, from any site except Microsoft. The mod might work, but I don't know what it's inside. Can contain malware, backdoors... Long time ago I've used something like this but reversed - it was 98se with the look and some functionality  of XP. Or, later XP with Vista look. But I made it myself. Not downloaded from obscure sites.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
