December 2010 Desktops


Recommended Posts

That's the messiest, most convoluted desktop I've ever seen. How do you work with that and not go into an Epileptic seizure?

Quite easily, since the top desktop is stitting above me on it's own monitor, and the larger desktop is the one in front of me. The Circle Dock is not always there, and becomes opaque when I either click on my middle mouse button or the "Windows+ALT" key combination.

The rest of the less critical things for me on my larger desktop all have their "Opacity" set to 20%. I'm just the kind of guy who likes to keep track of things on his computer's desktop.

Wow... you just put EVERYTHING you could throw in there? :blink:

Yeah, well...I'm an InfoGeek and ScienceGeek, and this desktop suits me just fine. Alot of it also helps me with my Streaming Music show on the 'net.

I hadn't updated my desktop for a long time, but I just had to use this picture I took last week as wallpaper. For some reason it makes me smile every time I see it :p

Window borders: freshdark.

Widgets: freshdark (the app in the second screenshot is QT, though).

Icons: black-white 2 style, with some customized icons. I'll replace some more eventually, but I can't be bothered right now.

Album cover widget: covergloobus with the polaroid theme.

On a non related note, I recently noticed they had released GuitarPro6 for Linux, and I couldn't help buying it :blush:

threw osx on my mini... three OS's this thing went though in a week.

7 - ran pretty good, booted fast and lots of games

ubuntu - gorgeous, booted the quickest, UI the slowest, no games...

osx - almost as gorgeous (honestly ubuntu IMO is the nicest looking os), boot the slowest, but performed the best. Warcraft runs best on this OS compared to the other two hands down. almost 5-7 more fps a second avg.

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
