My PC graphics card has been FUBAR'd for a while, so I've been using my work Macbook.

Mine isn't all that interesting. It swaps between a bunch of Blizzard concept art every 5 minutes or so. Some warcraft 3, some world of warcraft, some starcraft and a bunch of diablo (3). Kinda nifty.

I try to keep it as clean as possible otherwise. Since everything on my real life desktop is all messy. Some Lego zerglings and a lugia mini figure and such.

My laptop overheats. I have it on the lowest graphical setting possible so that it can not overheat 24/7 :/
I have a cooling mat and everything.

I hate the look. Always have. It screams generic. So did the ugly-*** beige-cased everything from the period.

God, I hated computers (aesthetically) for so many years.
Title: Re: Yet Another Desktop Thread
Post by: fruckert on October 15, 2011, 05:59:33 AM
I always thought that the beige casing was due to the plastic degrading in storage. Dead serious.
That's probably because I'm not really old enough to remember owning a really old computer. I remember our computer being state of the art, at the time that we bought it.
Of course, nowadays it can't really play anything.

Didn't you have the Scribblenauts wallpaper?

Anyway, I use Windows 7 and my wallpapers change every minute. Here's one.

I found out that an out-of-use TV my dad had has a DVI-in port. I took advantage, and now have a decently sized display. Also, an HDTV. To celebrate, it's new wallpaper time.

I think I have too much stuff!
Also, the background changes every 5 minutes to another paintsplat version of an assmark.

And for those curious, no, Password.txt does not actually keep any passwords in it.
It's my "save" file for Pandemonium 2. Because nostalgia.

Yeah I could use a bunch more desktop icons. Like to keep the space open. Puts most windows on the right side of the screen so few icons on the left allows me for larger windows. Or something.

Good news everybody! My computer is up and running again. Replaced the hard drive, and upgraded to 8 gigs of ram for shits and giggles too. After a clean install of Windows 7 and a slew of drivers and such, everything is in working order.

And it's pretty.

Pretty sweet.

Oh damn, whenever this thread gets updated, I need to find a new wallpaper. Now I need to go hunting...

EDIT: Ok, here's something, we'll see if I still like it better than Mastodon in the morning. (P.S. I like BTBAM a lot).

Just formatted the thing yesterday some I'm still missing some crap, and things aren't organized as I would like them to be.  Also, imagine if you will EDI communicating with me.

I liked Mass Effect 3.

I'm one of those minimalist asshats. Screw desktop icons, screw having a desktop in general; all I need are wallpapers, a system tray, taskbar, and some system monitoring to be happy. Running #! linux if anyone is interested, pretty damn slick for a minimal debian derived distro.
