You could set a game of this fantasy kingdom │ ║ simulator as your background, and it would move the camera to show you │ ║ interesting events. It could build resources as you directed, through double │ ║ clicking an icon on your desktop or whatever. And the wallpaper would zoom to │ ║ the part that seemed important. Just based on like, which heroes you clicked a │ ║ button that was triggered by a program running in a qt wrapper. Or maybe if you │ ║ said "notify me when this project is completed" or whatever, it'd zoom one of │ ║ it's screens toward the goal that you'd designed - or perhaps it'd just be done │ ║ by an AI. Either way, the result is that you've got an example of a wallpaper │ ║ that displays my favorite game. │ ║ │ ║ gee wish I could make that. First I'd have to learn X, then probably get better │ ║ at BASH, then I'd have to do some kind of input manipulation - probably maybe │ ║ with C? that could interface with a machine learning algo │ ╟─────────┐ ┌───────────┤ ║ similar │ │ different │ ╚═════════╧═══════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/639 ╔══════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ or like, a window that your window manager could window manage as it pleased. │ ║ I'm thinking of like, i3 or dwm where you have "tiles" instead of "windows" you │ ║ drag around. Really saves on screen real estate, but it lowers the ability of │ ║ your screen to show width. Or height, depending on how you set it up, but since │ ║ monitors tend to be wider than height-er (higher?) they (the users) tend to use │ ║ setups that sacrifice width for visual density. │ ║ │ ║ anyway in such a setup the screen is divided into like, 3rds or 4ths, and each │ ║ window takes up part of it. That way you can reference information from │ ║ multiple sources without having to move anything but your eyes. Really helps │ ║ with keeping it all in your head, because eyes are not reading information like │ ║ a computer - they aren't using a cursor, it's not one bit of text at a time. │ ║ Well, unless you're reading of course. But generally when looking at something │ ║ it's a more parallel experience - shining through and forth from to our gods. │ ║ Wow, cells in the body have an intere │ ╟─────────┐ ┌───────────┤ ║ similar │ │ different │ ╚═════════╧═══════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/640 ╔══════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────────┐ ║ socialism doesn't necessarily look like the DSA. It's more like, the bonds you │ ║ share with others. Ideally you can trust your fellow countrymen, but that's not │ ║ always a given. Alas, if only we could see that through cooperation (it is the │ ║ key) we could reach further and build brighter? casting ourselves inward is the │ ║ only other option, which leads to starvation and plight. What's the honest │ ║ opinion, what's the goal of their dominion? Are they true to the heart [of the │ ║ night/light/in their heart]? │ ║ │ ║ downside, there's no guarantee that your opposite is doing the same thing you │ ║ are. So to more fairly determine your direction, you should be able to talk to │ ║ them and co-re-align yourselves. │ ║ │ ║ is that why they don't let people in jail talk to each other? I mean, like, │ ║ they could keep two people separate, and that way they'd never be able to talk │ ║ to someone who they could trust. Not in a private setting, of course.
