    The beauty of an open system is that you can do pretty much whatever you want in it.

    They even got the good version of Aero that doesn’t add weird white stripes to the glass, and instead let’s it just be blurry.

          The great thing about it being KDE is that you can choose a dark colour scheme but keep the title bar theming, icons, fonts, etc the same :)

    Ok, but did anyone else really dislike this frosted glass thing that Windows did with Vista and 7?

    I remember going from XP to Vista, and feeling the customization drop off considerably, and the whole glass thing made the OS feel cold and unwelcoming.

    Now windows doesn’t even have any real customization. Hell, Linux distros don’t really even come with whimsical options out of the box anymore either.

    Where are my fun cursors?!

      I remember Vista & 7 both had the Aero Glass themes, a new light blue theme that replaced the Luna themes from XP & the Classic theme. Sure a lot of color schemes & things like cool looking cursors went away, but you could easily copy most of them from older versions. Only limit I can think of is that the blue theme that replaced Luna (And is technically based off of it) sucks.

      8 is the version that basically nuked customization with only the new flat theme replacing everything.

      Also, fun fact, the blue theme from Vista & the classic themes both do technically exist in 8 & up, but they are hidden & seeing them usually means something is broken.

      As for Linux theming, look at DEs other than GNOME, most are still pretty customizable

        I went nuts with it recently, burning jello windows on a 3d cube desktop environment… good times.

        I promptly disabled it all, but it was fun for 10 minutes.

        Yeah, but I think it is speaking in first person, about itself. So it should be “I saw” and “I think”, regardless of its pronouns in third person.

          Some people, for reasons I can only speculate on, don’t like speaking in first person singular. In most cases that I’ve seen, they use “we”. I don’t necessarily agree with the practice from a linguistic perspective, the English language is already a garbage fire as it is without introducing more ambivalent speech… but then I also want to go back to using “thou” for second person singular, so I’m probably not qualified to speak on the matter.

            Nope. Thou is just superior. The fact there is no distinction between second person singular and plural is fucked up.

                  Hmm, i tried to make a joke about thanking both parent posters, which makes them a plural noun, which makes thou wrong as it is only used for singular.

                  But i guess i was wrong in an orthogonal dimension as well.

        *its (not it’s)

        Edit: actually the whole thing should be:

        its pronouns are it/it

        (first “it” corresponds to “he”, “she”,

        second “it” corresponds to “him”, “her”)

          nah second it would also correspond to he or she

          “that’s cute but him thinks gnome also deserves some love too” doesn’t work. it just has to correspond to he or she in the second one

            I meant in the preferred pronouns “it/it”. A man’s pronouns are “he/him”, a woman’s pronouns are “she/her”, so an object’s pronouns would be “it/it” as opposed to “it/its”.
