Meanwhile at Tuxedo OS:
Manager: "So, we need a set of Wallpapers for that Linux we have."
Worker: "Alright, so i suggest that we add some vistas from germany in there and some nature photography."
Manager: "Classic and beautiful, but i feel like we need a little twist to that."
Worker: "Alright, so was if we were to run an algorithm that turns random parts of the wallpaper into polygonal art?"
Manager: "How random exactly?"
Worker: "Totally! The only rule is that half of the wallpaper has to have that look but there's no rhyme or reason to which parts will be turned into polygons."
Manager: "I love it. Can we also super impose our logo on the wallpaper so that people can always rest assured that the Linux they booted is still the Linux they installed and that it's our Linux?"
Worker: "Absolutely sir!"
I have to google image search that. Pretty accurate.
Duck duck go only showed person wearing tuxedo.
I end up always using the !g shortcut and using DDG at this point is googling with extra steps.
No wonder google has a monopoly on search engines.
There are some that work kinda like google but are still anonymous. I'm not sure what they're called butnI can look it up. Edit: startpage.com , never troed it myself on daily drive but it waa mentioned in our cyber security class at school. I see now that the other commenter mentioned it too :D I'm propably going to switch to it now
Lmao I looked it up, and it looks exactly like a Gimp filter I used just to get an image in a GUI library wrapper project just to have an image to load 20 years ago.
Man this brings back memories of installing Fedora Core 6 at my internship. I think I jumped to F10 after we did a round of updates. I started distro-hopping after that so I missed a bunch but I really like Fedora 16s wallpaper.
This one from 2010 has got to be my favourite:
Reminds me of being on the Millenium Falcon
I have a bunch of default wallpapers from windows and MacOS on shuffle in my KDE setup. I'm pretty amused with it, in my own dorky way.
honestly I don't like the theming endeavourOS gives it'd be better if they shipped the DE as is.
Honestly tho, it's amazing how bad a lot of distros look out of the box. Often even the preferred DE doesn't look quite right and all the alternative ones are just awful ports.
Slapping your logo onto something and matching the color scheme isn't designing dammit :D
The wallpaper from Fedora 11 was my first introduction to Fedora and I completely loved it. Didn't stick with Fedora, but hey.
I actually really emjoyed fedora 37 default wallpaper. That kinda surreal cartoonish town looked nice
100%
New Debian user here, pretty happy with the experience overall, but the default wallpapers...damn...
Mint ain't much better lol.
Is that the one that changes by itself? I tried it but it puts an ugly "wallpapers by bing" or something on the bottom right corner.
