A new iMac encouraged me to go find some pics and turn on the random wallpaper feature on the OS X. I've set to change it every 30 minutes, and this is the one right now, in a 1440x900 resolution.

I'm upgrading from a 7900 to a 7950 soon, so this background struck my fancy.

It's also super-spartan, so I like it. [although it is animated]

Image

Edit: 29 Nov, just cause this new Warlords mod is so damned ... good looking.

I'm feeling sadistic, so it's time to change the wallpaper. I have no idea where this image is originally from, but it looked neat when I snagged it.

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Well, necroing this again since we don't need a new one. Just got my new Geforce, which means I can run either Compiz or Beryl (screenshots made on beryl- I'm using compiz for day to day use though as it's more stable):

Yay, true terminal transparency, finally:
