    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 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.

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

      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.

    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
