Mythruna

On other forums people seem to enjoy showing off their cool/messy desktops (and I think desktops tell a lot about who somebody is as an individual). So, I now present to you your very own opportunity to claim the throne for having the 'awesomist' desktop than anybody else in all of the Mythrunian land!

I might as well start :3

Let's see those screenies! ;D

Here's mine... mess and all. :)

Just what I imagined.... 30 windows opened at once. 9 of which are command lines. xD
btw bastion is an amazing game.

It may not be awesome but it is mine.

Here's the grand of all messes. Mythruna is in the middle of it. Also, my own background I made using Windows paint. Haha.

Here's my desktop background I made if you want a closer look.

Edit: My taskbar is full of huge games in size of gb's. Also, haha, bigred has Blockland too. :)

Yeah, it started to drag a little near the end but I still found it interesting enough to finish. :)

Each of those browser windows also has at least 3 tabs open.  Some of them 8-10 tabs.

This machine's desktop is only 1 to 1.5 years old which is why there isn't more cruft.  For example, I got Bastion as part of the humble bundle and have purchased all of the PC humble bundles (or almost all) and used to have like 10 of those games on my desktop.

Here's what my laptop looks like... Which hints to something I'm working on. (evil laugh)

Sean, what OS is that? I tried Ubuntu once but it didn't look anything like that.

Both of my computers are running Arch Linux.
My desktop PC is using the Gnome 3 desktop environment with a ton of added extensions, and my laptop uses the Cinnamon desktop environment

It makes me smile to see so many Linux desktops.  There is hope for the world.

Umm.. what does that mean?

Here is my lame 'ol desktop...
This is my actual screen size, it sucks xD
I need to clean it up again;
so many folders and images on my desktop that don't even need to be there.

He obviously means that linux is pretty damn awesome... if you get the right distro, that is.

And because it's slowly breaking this circular logic:

Person A: Man, I hate windows.
Person B: then why do you run it?
Person A: Because all of my apps/games run there.
Person B: Why do you think your apps aren't on other OSes?
Person A: Because everyone uses windows.

Competition is good.  It also has the side benefit of promoting cross platform solutions like Java since it makes it easier to deploy to multiple platforms.

Which... in itself provides the side benefit that if a new OS maker wants to get into the game, they merely need to make sure they support the most prevalent cross-platform solutions.

Result: thriving ecosystem of cool software instead of a mired swamp of "Buy our new OS because this one really has fewer bugs and now with hi-res icons."

The best OS I want:

1. Runs Everything!
2. No Bugs!
3. Cannot be hacked!
4. Does not slow down!
5. Fast!
6. Cool Design, but not too complicated!
7. Free!

I think you forgot:
8. Makes me eggs.
9. Tastes like bacon.
10. Fosters world peace.
11. Cures cancer.

12. Makes games with your mind.
I love seeing posts with unn wishing for the impossible.

Well 1, 2, and 3 are literally impossible for no matter what OS you are using. Although, Linux is much more secure than Windows and OS X. Partly because it's open sourced but being open means it can be easier for people to exploit the software.
If you run Linux, it will not slow down. Period. Only the necessary daemons are loaded during the startup and the ext filesystem rarely fragments. Whether or not you have the speediest OS depends on what desktop environment you choose. If you want something fast, look into XFCE or LXDE. If you want something that looks nicer but uses a few more resources, look at KDE or Gnome.
