Don't start a widget war you cannot win ;070

REVENGE OF K8: LET'S GET WIDGET-Y, COSPLAY STYLE

With task bar:


Where'd it go?!


Aw man, I've just been served a cease and desist by Apple Inc XD

Added after 1 minutes:

Oh. You still won the the widget war, BTW.

[Tsubashi]

Ah, good old Konfabulor! It's the only way to use XP, ne?
...
What's this? A Widget war?
I accept your challenge!



Sorry Bella-san, I couldn't resist!

Added after 1 minutes:

Ooh! Points to whomever can identify two of the award winning widgets I used!

[C-Chan]

Oh. You still won the the widget war, BTW.

OMG,...Bella-san, you've been served so much, you might as well be in a fine restaurant.  ^^;

But if it's any consolation, despite the hoopla, I'm too old to comprehend the notion of a "widget".  Like, how much does that differ from just having mini applications on your desktop.  ^.^;

Xubuntu runs Xfce, meaning it's lightweight and generally free of much bloat, so whereas KDE has stuff like Superkaramba, I'm still operating a traditional 1999 desktop model.  ^____^

But here's some more Beryl eyecandy as a consolation prize, complete with 3D window popups, transparency effects and a view of the adorable Xfce mouse.  ^^

Ooh! Points to whomever can identify two of the award winning widgets I used!

Wow, that's just fantastic.  ^___^

My guess it to go with whatever everyone and their dog recognizes, so:

A)  The Google thingy (cause everyone knows google)

and

B)  The Sudoku thingy (cause everyone plays sudoku).  ^^;

Honorable mention needs to go Wikipe and the young Tiger-san.  ^.^

[Tsubashi]

Oooo! Beryl is so nifty! Makes me want to put it on my on my Power Mac!

Sorry C-chan, but none of those are award winners. The google
search was built by the OS X team, so that sorta disqualifies it and
Sudoku, well I guess it's just not shiny enough. ^__^
I found Tiger-tan by following a link from our wiki, but I doubt it's
widespread enough to win anything, and I made wikipe-tan to keep
track of the changes to our wiki, so that's certainly won nothing ^__^

The answer?
iClip lite and Weatherbug, both winners of the 2006 Apple Design Awards!




Still, 500 C-Points for trying!

[C-Chan]

Oh gee, thanks.  ^___^
Now I'll have enough tinder to start a campfire tonight.  ^.^
(takes C-points)

I kinda figure it was one of those large doohickies.  ^___^;
After uninstalling MEPIS, I have my pick of either trying DesktopBSD or SabayonLinux (no AMD64 version of PCLinuxOS yet,... *sadness*  ;___;).

If it's Sabayon, I'll look into adding,... wi,.... widget.... thingies......  Â¬.¬

Aha,... so you MIGHT be able to get Beryl running on a Mac....

Speaking of Aero-trouncing desktops, a 3D Finder should be added to Leopard-san, or else..... T___T

(If I can't get make my beloved Tablet Mac solution, at the very least they owe me some 3D eye candy to play with.)

[Tsubashi]

Aha,... so you MIGHT be able to get Beryl running on a Mac....

I certainly could, in fact I have. The problem is that right now, it's my file/web server, and it's old enough to need whatever resources it can free! ^__^'

[Bella]

Ooooohh....so much eyecandy...O___O

OMG,...Bella-san, you've been served so much, you might as well be in a fine restaurant. ^^;

Or, to phrase it Unix-style, I've been served more than an SCO copywright "infringer"

That's quite alright, cause I like simplicity. And here I thought Mac fans liked it XD

[C-Chan]

Mac fans liking simplicity?  Girl, hat's like sooooooooo System 6....  ^.^

If you like simplicity, remind me later to take a screenshot of Puppy-chan for you (no chance in hell I can install Beryl on her and I think 95-tan looks newer than her, so you'd adore Puppy.  ^v^)

Installation of DesktopBSD went ho-hum, but didn't like it (what the HELL kind of partitioning job and file system was THAT?!!  @__@), and it freaked out my poor Xubuntu's mount points afterwards (using UUID labels rather than the actual device names was not a good idea, for whoever genius thought that up... ^^')

Puppy-chan came to the rescue so well, I've decided to give HER my spot on sda2.  

Congratulations!  ^v^

*applause from crowd*

[Tsubashi]

Simplicity is good, but so is productivity. You've got to find an appropriate balance. Then again, one is simply obligated to go all out in a widget war, regardless of bad taste, clutter, inefficiency and/or resource toll.

Poor Senpai, your BSD experience seems almost comical. I've never tried to set up a dual-boot BSD anything, so I haven't worried about partition tables. Glad everything worked out in the end, though!
