That'd look much nicer on a Gnome 3 desktop.

Sorry. I guess I've just never understood why one would wish to pay handsomely for the shackles Microsoft forces one to wear.

One of my few shortcomings.

Yeah, I hate Microsoft as much as the next guy... but learning a completely new OS at this point for me would take too much valuable time. And besides, none of my customers use Linux...

But I get what you're saying. Microsoft made suckers of all of us, and we keep playing the price of own complacency.

Good news is, your monitor has a fixed resolution so in the context of this thread Windows or Linux matters not. But what does matter is all the crap on your desktop...

I can't stand more than 10 icons on my desktop. Which is totally incongruous with my policy regarding my actual physical desktop, which is a rat's nest of wires, cables, papers, components, and some unidentified biological entities probably known to the state of California to cause cancer.

Yeah, I agree... I can't stand a messy desktop either... but in my defense, the icons on the right were supposed to be temporary like, two years ago ... but I do make use of ALL the icons on the left... I need two monitors ... *sigh*

 

Taken by a friend in Necochea, near the port.

 

Happy Halloween!

 

Interested in a lens that really sucks? ... you're in luck!

Orange belt tests.

 

Bravo Zulu Orange Belt

 

Taken by one of my nieces in Córdoba.
Passiflora, passion flower, also called "mbaracuyá" in what I guess is guaraní.

 

Got a rare chance to take my grandson out. It was a special night, because while in the car, he reached over, squeezed my arm and called me “Papa!” for the first time.

Beautiful! ... congrats, my friend.

 

Finally got to join my wife who was with my daughter for the birth of our Grandson, Gidon.

He’s a beautiful, healthy baby and we are very happy and proud of him and his parents.

 

A view of my city's financial district. As seen from my mother's balcony.

A shot on the river a few days ago at dawn with my new Canon EOS R mirrorless camera and the RF 24-70mm /2.8L lens.

So far, I am really liking this new system. A "pro" body is due in February, it will be very interesting to see what Canon comes up with.

So maybe I'm _genius_ after all (or NOT) cuz before 30 yoa I've identified the two great mysteries of reality!

1 Why is most mentioned day of week Tuesday?
2 Why are cats most popular avatar on AAC forum?

So I know 42 is answer and all that but I still don't get it!
