Ah yes, nothing screams productivity like spending countless hours installing 53 different panels and 27 docks just to make your terminal look like a circa-2001 GeoCities page. 😎 Meanwhile, your bootable containers are out there actually doing *real work,* but sure, let's focus on choosing *the perfect shade of blue* for your desktop. 🖌️

The Joy of Linux Theming in the Age of Bootable Containers

Having spent a couple of decades in the Linux world, I have always had an interest in Linux desktop environments and how they are themed. I would often come across a post on /r/unixporn that inspired me to try to customize the look and feel of my desktop environment. So I would install Xfce, LXQt or Sway and try to recreate components that I like from other users or create my own. I would end up installing different kinds of panels, plugins, docks and launchers as well as random themes, fonts and sounds.

#RetroAesthetics

I went looking for Images of TRS-80 Model III and Apple IIe computers so I could do some color picking. Looking for back ground colors and accents that look similar to the 80s and 90s colors. Everything was silver, Beige/White, and Black back then.

Will probably at least try and figure out more.

1971 A Retro Vision of a Futuristic Party

This image captures a scene from a 1970s party in a futuristic setting.
It's a lively gathering of people, with some standing and others seated, all engrossed in conversation and enjoyment.
The room is filled with a mix of furniture, including chairs and couches, arranged for easy movement and interaction.
A large TV screen is visible in the background, possibly displaying a video or slideshow that adds to the ambiance of the event.
The setting appears to be indoors, possibly in a hotel or similar establishment, as indicated by the presence of a bar and the architecture of the room.
