Computer desktop tricked out with Christmas imagery

For persons who care, that’s Fluxbox running on Slackware –Current. Santa and the snowflakes are courtesy of Xsnow.

I tricked out my laptop, which is currently running Mint 17.1 LTS, in a similar fashion. The persons at Thurday’s TWUUG meeting got a nice chuckle from my interface when I made my little presentation about Qmmp (that’s Qmmp playing Cleek of Scotland Yard in the upper left). “Okay,” I said, “so I decorated for Christmas.”

And, no, you can’t do this in Windows, at least, not anywhere nearly so easily.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
