why do you have two browsers in your taskbar?

>>1
Why does your browser have subtitles?

>>2
I like to browse twice as fast.

>>3
I have trouble understanding my desktop at times.

Then stop using it in japanese, retard.

ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

Damn, they're finally stepping up their game.

>NEET
>in school

Doesn't make sense; that guy's just a poser. His lifestyle may resemble a NEET's, but he's not a real, honest-to-god NEET. Don't argue with that scotsman fallacy; NEET refers to "one who is not in education nor employed".

I have to say, though, NEETs are not necessarily bad. As long as you're not the kind that wastes his life doing inane, hedonistic crap you're fine in my book (sadly that covers the majority of them).

>>6
Actual nihonjin, or a guy learning japanese? The Rikaichan icon obivously suggests the latter, but I can never be sure.

Anyway, you have great taste - both in music, and design. Great colours, great everything.

>>11
Thanks. Just a guy learning Japanese.

purple and brown don't really work together, especially here

If the japs don't use gentoo then why does this exist? https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/ja

I was going to change it when I got my brown wallpaper but I got used to it, and I'm not sure how good it'd look if everything is too brown.

>>20
#786f5a (muted brown) alongside #5a6378 could work nicely

I like to have a wallpaper that I can stare into.

I don't usually have any desktop icons but I just haven't put them away yet

>>23
>discord
huh...

>>24
I use it because my mates use it, it's not too bad of a service if you can withstand the shitty memes

>>24
What's up with Discord? In my experience it does what it's supposed to do for the most part, which is letting you communicate with your fellow lads, without being a bloated piece of assdicks like Skype.

>>26
Proprietary with low transparency

>>26
As a Skype replacement it really is pretty damn good, but for a TS/Mumble replacement it still falls short. It's surprisingly heavy on resource usage, the complete lack of control is a pain in the ass and it still has some stability issues.

>>25
>>26
>tfw no mates or lads

>>29
I'll be your mate :)

>>28
I see. Never felt that it was particularly heavy on resource usage, but then again I'm not exactly an attentive person and never checked to begin with. I never used Teamspeak much and I also never bothered to uninstall or touch it, but I guess it'll stay here for now.

>>31
Teamspeak is shit, look at mumble.

Not a big deal.

>>33
anon that's the default conky config along with maki who's a slut so that's a shit desktop

>WINDOWS 10

probably a trend started by the fictional character "Nishijou Takumi", but this time they don't even go for minimal attendance lol
fucking special snowflakes, dropped

>>34
Well I like conky default, and also like Maki, she's pure.

New Year iz cuming.

Desktops are graphic design, not software. Ricing is disgusting.

>>39
You said so?

sorry everyone, trying my hardest to make windows look pleasant without memory-intense riceshit. I could show off some other things if it'd please you
>>38 is that you caden?

>>41
What are good resources for learning Windows and command prompt? I only know Unix

>>41
I think it looks pretty comfy. The minimalist browser helps.

>there are Anons who actually use W10
Please stop anytime.

>>44
Who are you quoting?

>>44
Windows 10 is no more proprietary or closed-source than any other version of Windows. If you think using Windows 7 is not bad, you are fooling yourself.

>>46
>proprietary or closed-source
That's not the reason people avoid W10 like the plague. It's because of the massive amounts of spyware on windows 10. It literally uploads your files to Microsoft so they can create better targeted ads for you, among many other things. Look it up.

>>47
If it's closed-source, it's automatically spyware as you cannot prove it isn't.

ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

>>48
If you don't want to heed my warning that's your business. I'm not here to present evidence to you when you clearly haven't even spent 2 seconds looking it up. It's not a secret, go ask Microsoft they'll tell you themselves. These days big data doesn't have to pretend not to spy on people anymore, because they spent the last decade forcing it down everyone's throats that most people either don't care, or think it's a good thing, so they can be open about it.

>>50
>If you don't want to heed my warning that's your business.
I don't use Windows.

>>50
Why does it really matter all that much? I mean, I'll avoid stuff that openly spies on me, but I won't reject anything I can't prove doesn't.
I don't do anything illegal.
I'm not a computer guy, anyway, though.

>>52
>I'll avoid stuff that openly spies on me
like w10?

>>52
>I'll avoid stuff that openly spies on me, but I won't reject anything I can't prove doesn't.
There's no difference. The only reason something would be closed-source is to hurt you. There's no benefit to something being closed-source, for a user.
>I don't do anything illegal.
You sound boring.

>>42 hey, sorry for the late response
I don't think there's much to learn when it comes to windows, the only things I can really offer are a bunch of tips.

- So instead of having a "bin" folder, 7 at least has a number of indexed directories in a file called the "path", which can be displayed with the "path" command* in the prompt. By default, I think the only location in there will be ...\Windows\System32, the basic install directory, but by now it'll probably be full of a whole bunch of crap. You should probably know this already, but that basically means that just by typing in the name of an exe, you can load a program up, though that isn't always going to work. That can be edited in a menu called "Environment Variables", and the easiest way to access that seems to be bringing up the start menu and looking for "systempropertiesadvanced.exe"
*(this is NOT a program, please do not type path.exe like I just did like an idiot because it seems to rewrite the path and I think I'm screwed if I turn my computer off)

- I kill the program explorer.exe (I do it from taskmgr, I think trying to do it in CMD will just be interpreted as a shutdown signal) because it looks cooler and because explorer uses a surprisingly high amount of memory. It has a number of drawbacks, like explorer making no noises (this means no "beep"s with a lot of programs, as well), no battery alarms, no clock (you can look at the time with the command time /t), no tray programs or interacting with Windows IME while it's inside of the taskbar and your desktop icons will be at the default size when you start it up again. If you haven't registered a program in your path yet, you can load a little instance of explorer without getting your desktop back by typing explorer (directory. If you screw up and close your CMD window, you can always use alt control delete to bring up the task manager, and run it from there (file -> new task)

- Window's programs and command options start with /, but - will work a lot of the time anyway

- Just look up a batch tutorial or something if you want to learn DOS syntax better, I can't really help there though because I'm just a glorified ricer really

- Look up a bunch of keybinds. With windows, you can access the current window's menu (usually you'd click on the icon on the top left corner) by holding down alt and pressing space. A character under each option will be underlined, showing you faster ways to use them (N to minimise the window, E then L to scroll up or down in CMD, etc.). If you're using a more technical program like a media player or a text editor, you can also just press alt to access the lower menu there. Another really handy one is shift + F10, which brings up the context menu of a selected file

I think that's everything I wanted to get out, good luck. By the way, 7 has a "classic" 98 theme which I'm using, but I'm guessing you knew that already

>>49 I have been bested.

oh yeah, remember to type "help" or (command/program) /? if you ever feel like learning a bit more about anything. since I'm stuck with a laptop, shutdown /h (hibernate) has been a helpful command for me

>>55
>>56
I see. Thanks!

>>47
yes, so does windows 7 and 8. both have the same backdoor as win10

Winter iz cumming!

Window Maker is interesting.

>>60 Are you a girl? I think that's cool :)

>>61
don't make me cringe

Dang, my funny fake email address reply was removed

ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!

>>66
that's a nice wallpaper. makes me nostalgic somehow

>>67
Me as well, that kind of abstract design is something I remember associating with Linux desktops around the mid-00, when I really didn't know what it was. They're regarded as ugly now, but I still think they look neat to this day, It even inspires my own desktop, though mine is nowhere near as refined.

What's this a screenshot from? If it's an anime about NEETs I'd like to give it a watch.
