Psych test!

What is the wallpaper on your desktop? It's like handwriting analysis. Quite telling. :-]

Mine: Right now... a fine picture of Rita Hayworth.

A Cessna C-37. It's supposed to make me get around to building a model of the thing, but I'm still waiting for it to take effect.

Mine: featureless plain blue.

"gray" here

usually no more than 20% of it visible at any time,I see no need to waste processor time or memory cache with a large image, this machine's too slow already.

I have well, heck, I have it laying around here, lemme see.

This computer has the "Space" wall paper that came with Windows ME, while the other five computers have it set to "none". This is the computer I use to manage all the other computers on my network, and it saves a little time when I remotely log into another computer by not having to copy wallpaper over the wired and wireless networks. BTW, I used Tweak UI to get rid of the BSOD. Mine are red! ;-)

The link fails with a spank to the linker person.

Anyway, from the description.

OMG, if you are worried about a few seconds of network traffic, you should very likely go back to school, 'cause Billy looks over your shoulder every time you boot up and run his crap OS.

A photo of a snow capped Goatfell as viewed from my office window. If you want to find Goatfell go to my house at 55D 34M 26.21S North 5D 8M 7.27S West on Google Earth and look NNW. You'll need to have terrain checked.

Hey! What can I say? Its so easy to shoot fish in a barrel when they're all floaters. ;-)

Sno-o-o-o-ort! Good thing I didn't have a mouth full of coffee ;-)

Can you put that into any human language for the rest of us? Say, are you a descendant of one of the monkeys the movie company lost at Silver Springs when they shot the old "Tarzan" movies in Ocala? I know a few got away when Marion county paid trappers to collect them to send them to zoos. They had to get rid of them. Like you, they were screeching at people and throwing their shit at anyone who got close enough to the trees they were hiding in. It really spoiled dining outdoors at the couple restaurants near Silver Springs. :(

An abstract photograph (because it was dark, the sensitivity of teh camera all the way up, and teh exposure longish under strreet lighting giving a stroboscopic effect) of a horse+rider in the show races in Orgosolo on Sardinia.

Wallpaper images, probably the most useless thing you can dedicate five or six megabytes of memory to do. A plain color or even a pattern are reasonably efficient, but wallpaper images must occupy memory all the time, it can't even be swapped as it all must be available continuously just to "repair" the desktop image whenever you move a window.

Now tell me how wrong I am about that.

I guess you're really enjoying the hell out of that steel wool, huh?
