Debian Unstable (often called Sid) is a branch of the Debian operating system designed for active development of new versions of packages. It is considered the most recent, but also the most unstable of the three main branches of Debian. Other software comes with Oldversion and runs under Wine. Xfce Desktop Environments
“homework”
That… must have taken some work 😮
It is hard God damn work, making something this pretty look like a chump! -WhiteMenCantJump
It is nearly perfect, wtf
Is this xfce-winxp-tc? I ‘ve played with it before and it’s awesome.
However, I don’t use it because while the XP start menu replica is cool, I need a Win7-style search bar, and Whiskermenu sticks pit like a sore thumb here.
I think a 7 replica would be awesome, but I think some parts of Aero can only truly be replicated with a new WM and DE, such as the color changes in the taskbar for different applications. Many themes just fall short - proportions and effects are slightly off and such.
This is like cuckold porn for you people isn’t it?
Are you trolling?
The Apple Software Updater is the cherry one top, impressive! I worry for you, but impressive nonetheless.
Yikes… impressive but… yikes
At first I thought I was watching the start of a Brutalmoose Barbie stream.
Debian Unstable
So basically as stable as Windows can get
The unstable part is just compared to other versions of Debian. Every now and then a package dependency breaks, but usually nothing serious and you can still use the system until it is fixed within hours. It is not like the system will constantly crash, it is still linux.
I have used sid for years without any major problems. Usually only on desktop though.
If you think about it windows up is super stable
Without context, the image isn’t that impressive. If nothing XP-related actually works and it’s just a display exercise, it’s just a 20-something year old skin import.
If absolutely everything works in the manner XP worked, then it’s incredibly impressive.
I do find recreating the whole theme of XP pretty impressive, it must have taken a lot more than just a “skin import”.
So, a BSOD? Or a Zip Drive ‘click of death’?
I use a Windows XP computer (for distraction-free writing using old DOS word processors) and a bunch of Linux and Windows 11 PCs. Being in contact with XP regularly, I don’t experience any desire to go back to doing things like that. It’s really rough compared to modern Linux.
Just don’t let the 12 year old install LimeWire onto that thing
It’s already there! Top left
lol … I never noticed … just like the 12 year old who installed Limewire on the family computer
That floppy begs to be copied.
What a horrible thing to do to Linux.
that’s an interesting way to say “absolutely goddamn incredible”
dotfiles?
would be willing to actually set this up for myself on some device, this almost looks perfect besides the icons on the desktop being a bit too far apart than they are on XP for real
also please implement arrange by penis for desktop icons
not planned, sorry
also now that I think about it, doing this sort of theme is not really a thing I’d want to be involved in (was never into “ricing” type stuff tbh), though I might just make myself do it if I really wanted to see that sight come from my own Linux install instead of OP’s
Wow, I haven’t seen that in like two decades!
