A typical /g/ desktop But it's Arch, not Gentoo, silly me.

I like that 8Bit style, also this borderless browser.

i might switch to gentoo someday. i prefer debian and i actually wanted to run crux on this machine, just to try it out, but turns out it's a total pain in the butt to get crux running on a uefi-only setup and i was not willing to settle for refind (macbook = uefi only). with arch, i installed gummiboot and i can boot the efistub right from apple's bootloader. snazz!

So Linux is good if your attention deficit disorder makes more than a week in any one environment unbearable? I see, and does this perchance relate to your mother?

This setup is almost identical to what I have been using at work for like 2 years now just a different underlying distribution.
My work setup is even less fancy - no bar at the top with emails and music and stuff, no taskbar, no titlebars, just windows on the screen.

Yeah, I like the minimalism. Not too different to how I've been running OS X for a few years. No filler, all killer. Uh, chrome vs. content, rather!

derp

Not too different != identical. I mean the absence of the dock, which I've kept hidden along the bottom as its effects on window positioning make my teeth grind. Plus a lot of black backgrounds with slim, light text. I write in "night" themes at every time of day.

if i was smart:

i would start a new tty project and call it TiTTYs

the students are here again

tonight i was walking down town minding my own business and some chick came up and socked me in the back

She mistook you for a gamer…

Nah, she probably saw his previous comment …

I installed now Arch two times, first in a Parallels VM, and the second one inside VirtualBox. I have now installed several packages, love Pacman, learn systemd, installed OpenBox, and now i see a terminal window and a mouse arrow. Yeah! There's so much to learn, if i would read through every package i install, it would take years until the complete desktop is ready. Of course i could install Ubuntu, and just switch the desktop environment, to get that cool looking hipster nerdy desktop, but the tinkering way feels much better to achieve the goal.

Also: i got this in the mail, an advertisement for an IT security fair:



IT security advertisements are very often quite strange, the last one i got was like "don't let the riffraff/rabble into your house". With an image with people some would associate being homeless, poor, not-white-skin, etc.

i just got back from america!

and i watched top gun on the flight back!

Did you try it out?


A virus for Linux!


I wanted that for decades!!!

i am looking forward to this hot pup:


sweet styles, sideways driving and myrone!

The bottom left is a 308GTB.
Top right is a Lotus Esprit.
Can't identify the other 2.


edit: Shit! I should have recognised the Hofmeister Knick and identified the top left as a BMW M1.


The bottom right is hard to identify without seeing it's side ...

Nice catch!

Initial release on Windows and Mac… convenient for me!

I'm still not sure with this one.


Similar, but not a Celica.

I've seen this front before ...


Mr2: no.
RX-7:no.

I know, bad timing for me considering I don't have OS X anymore. Maybe I'll dual boot on my work machine

I know I've seens this car before and that it must be Japanese.




If I would ever design such a game, I would use more easily recognizable cars:
Porsche 911
Lotus Super 7
Lamborghini Miura
Honda S2000

why not design such a game? i can write synth 80s jams for the soundtrack!

soundtrack?


7bit@localhost:~:> race
Race has started. Porsche 911 tries to overtake your Miura, what do you want to do:
[1] speed up
[2] slow down
[3] throw nails
[4] splash oil

i got another tattoo in america. i'll post it when it's fully healed.

HINT: It's my first Utilitoo! Tattillittoo? Whatever!

thought of the day:

you can't get what you want by not trying unless you're real lucky or real boring, and you can only do anything about one of those.

better stock up on rabbit's feet

How do I get what I want without even trying by being really boring? I can do that!

you've already got it. enjoy your life man, it takes most people never to figure that one out!!

Exactly. The art of low expectations. Or as we say: "Be a fucking buddhist and let it fucking go. Just let it fucking go."

In my case it'd be those APL beamspring tripleshots. Ommmmm!!!!!

You don't even know what APL is!
