Disgusting. They added a bitcoin miner to their flax that steals CPU cycles in the later releases - it's possible they've removed it given the backlash, but even if they have, *Can'tSayThisOnTV* them, you should use something else that isn't developed by dishonest buttheads. qBittorent is very similar, but not evil.Kickback said:

Suppose I may as well play myself. Linking because bigass image, and I can't be arsed to resize it.
And yes, the wallpaper mostly lines up in physical reality. It's not perfect because I've been changing monitors so much over the past two years I can't be arsed to set up proper wallpapers. (I think this is my seventh or eighth major revision to my monitor layout in that period.)

Brand new computer. Came with windows 8.1 and I got the update like an hour after I turned it on. W10 has been *Can'tSayThisOnTV*ing amazing for me. It's nice and fast. As soon as I can figure out how to get my graphics card drivers, I'l be switching to some version of Debian.
Ironically I'm the president of my Universities Free Software Group, so I can't really be seen using windows
Yeah, I had a lot of problems with NVidia and Intel Management Engine drivers, so I put on a fresh copy of Windows 7 which is nice and fast (the Windows 10 was an upgrade to an already bloated system). The stability pushed me over the line, though I was growing discontent with the tracking and splitting of the control panel (carried over from Windows 8's splitting of the entire UI).
Windows 98 sounds, mostly. Kept the mail notification sound from Windows 7 but used the 98 mail sound for UAC. On boot, the Windows 95 startup sound plays (a denoised version, IIRC) and when you log into my account you hear the old soundblaster CTMELODY.wav thunder clap. There are HD 95 clouds on the login screen, too. Active programs in the taskbar have text as they did before 7 and such. When I used Waterfox I had an icon that I had made with the IE4 palette and an appropriate amount of pixels that looked amazing. Though the start menu is currently Classic Shell, I replaced the flag icon bitmap in the system dlls so it would still look like that without CS.
Unfortunately I did not replace any of the global icons because it's a shared PC, and I never did the boot animation for several reasons.
More pics... Tomorrow.
