[Cinnamon] “Retro Heresy: Service Pack 1”
After my last post, I got some suggestions. AND I LOVED 'EM!
Now with audio! https://bolha.tube/w/wNV9TTvPYPVNHoPPtTu54g
Keep in mind this is STILL my work computer. I’ve installed Tibia and Quake just for the LOLZ. Had mixed reactions from my colleagues. So… mission accomplished? :P

You can go ahead and sign me the fuck up for whatever that is that’s skinned like Winamp. That is functional, right? Not just part of the desktop image?
@dual_sport_dork it’s a player called Audacious. It is fully functional. It is available in every distro I know.
To style it like this, download any winamp skin (*.wsz) and put it on
\~/.local/share/audacious/SkinsAnd I mean any winamp skin. I follow @winampskins for new ideas.
Here, OP. More winamp skins than you could ever want.
That website lets you try the skins before you download them too.

Awesome, I’m going to have to check that out. Thanks!
Windows XP was a good, solid OS. Not FOSS, obviously, but I imagine most people would remember it fondly. Not heresy, maybe just some mild blasphemy.
I remember hating and resisting the upgrade from Windows 98 SE. It took a while for me to realize that our budget PC was the bottleneck…
You need to skin the login manager as well! It’s the only thing missing now!

I know what to do for Service Pack 2!!! xD
Gah looking at the screenshots I had memories of the way it would gradually fade to gray-scale when the log out/shutdown menu showed
By the way… Thank you @unixporn community for the suggestions.
I honestly thought I would receive some hate for “transform linux in windows”, but instead you were so helpful. You rock!
I love the fediverse.
This is fire.
I shall now go and try to close vim as penance for setting eyes on this foul abomination.
The good old days. It brings a lot of memory.
