the laptop is an envy 2in1 16 with a ryzen 7 8840hs/16gb lpddr5/512gb ssd, the desktop is a custom built one with an opteron 165/2gb ddr1/200gb hdd running windows xp sp3 with the “zune” theme, monitor is a dell 2405fpw. both are windows, sorry 3:
OK I couldn’t decide on what game to play but now those socks give me ideas
Nice socks but not unix, doesn’t belong here
Try programmingsocks
You may not like it, but the rules say “any operating system is fine”. I don’t like Windows either, but this post is technically correct.
So why is it called !UNIX[email protected] then?
Honestly I have no idea why non-unix OSs are allowed. Maybe its because this community is so small that the mods decided they want quantity over quality or consistency.
“as long as you’re doing cool, or unique stuff with it”
This seems like a low effort post, vanilla Windows setup with a pair of socks.
more just trying to say i got a new laptop lol, maybe should’ve showed more of my xp setup though because at least i actually did something there
Technically you need to do something cool like modifying it in a significant way, however if you want to follow the spirit of the community you need a Unix like OS (Linux, MacOS, FreeBSD, etc).
Specs of the socks?, asking for a friend
You are my favourite contributor here!! I’m not sure what to love more all the different hardware you post or the stunning socks 11/10
thank you! legit made me smile hehe
Where’s the XP setup?
I see a laptop with Windows 11?, and a big screen with what looks like a Windows 7 task bar but none of the pretty, blocky XP menu or the lovely paper airplanes flying between folders.
And where’s the customary fetch script hmmm?
Also ddr1 RAM is impressive lol
it’s the monitor above the laptop, i’m using the Windows XP “Zune” theme (which is orange and black btw) because it looks nice, should’ve made it more clear
also yeah it’s socket 939 they all run ddr1 :)
Wow, I didn’t know that there was theming for XP, is it natively supported?
it’s part of a set of themes that were distributed by Microsoft, so yes! although it will only accept themes that are digitally signed (i.e. from microsoft) unless you use a patch
Great to see someone using the black and orange XP theme. What was it called, media center or something?
it’s called “zune” but yea it’s my favourite windows xp theme so far
smash
lol :3
Next step to full rock it > Arch… BTW
i was considering a dual boot but i don’t want to go to linux juuussttt yet
