The picture alone tells me "do not eat" yikes.

I want a FOSS version of the original core use of Facebook. A place to keep up with IRL friends and aquaintences. Share photos and updates with everyone you know. Organize and send out event invites. Facebook groups.

Sure you can do that the old fashion way. But the convenience of those features is the only reason I still use Facebook. I assume its what keeps most of FB userbase around.

It's pretty normal. I took 6 years. I was having a good time.

I used to take a screenshot of the desktop, set it as the wallpaper. Then hide all the desktop icons and set the taskbar to auto hide.

So I'm guessing you didn't look that closely at what community you were posting this too?

I kinda envy them if so. To be so oblivious or isolated to not see the country crumbling around us....

I'm not saying this didn't happen. But as an American myself, I find this bizarre. I was born and raised in Texas, and I can't recall ever meeting someone who didn't know what England is. Though I guess if you are visiting from England, the topic is more likely to come up.

I'm also convinced that every country has absolute morons within their populations. Our American morons are just louder than most.

Thanks! I really like the looks of what people put together with the minimalist tiling window managers. I have tried to play around with them a bit. But I just can't do it. I've got 30 years of floating window manager and mouse focused computing experience that makes tiling only managers rage inducing to actually use. Perhaps if I were a programmer, it would be more appealing. But as an artist/photographer, I will stick to what works for me.

Thanks! Yes it's Zen browser. Took me a bit to adjust to vertical tabs but now that I've got it customized I'm pretty sold on it.

It's probably advanced Excel users, mostly. Also, people who heavily use the collaboration features of MS Office.

It's too eye searingly bright for my personal preferences. But it is a clean, beautiful desktop. Good work.
