I don't understand people who use desktop shortcuts.
What's the point of having a nice wallpaper if it's constantly covered with crap.

for those who might be interested, this is how my desktop is organised:

Spoiler For No Surprises, by Radiohead:
A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal

You look so tired unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us

I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide

And no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silent

This is my final fit
My final bellyache

With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden

No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

I use my desktop for actual folders that I don't have a place for in other area of my filesystem yet.

Spoiler For Spoiler:





I prefer using desktop shortcuts so I don't need to spend 1 minute navigating to the folders that has all my files. I save a considerable amount of time doing so. However, for important applications I prefer using the Start menu or the quick launch menu, depending of how often I use them. To each their own I guess (besides, my current wallpaper is tiled anyway, so it repeats over and over)

A good file tree organisation and explicit folder names usually do the trick to browse files efficiently.
I keep a few important places in Thunar's sidebar, and xfce4's Directory Menu does the rest.

but indeed, everyone works differently, so everyone has a different organisation

Archlinux rocks, only when the kernels does want to run on your machine.

I add nothing new to this thread and say the same thing than the last 3 posts.

Actually, maybe... I should take a pic of my current setup with 3 screens.

EDIT: Here's my setup in my living room :P


Top left: Derpy: Arch Linux with LXDE (19", 1440x900)
Top right: Miku: iMac 27" mid-2011 with OS X 10.9 (2560x1440)
Bottom: Luna: Microsoft Surface Pro with Windows 8 (10", 1920x1080)

(Actually, I'm cheating with the top left screen... It's plugged to the Surface which runs a X server remotely connected to the server in my room.)

(And did I said Luna is best princess?)

Those wallpapers are nice :D

That iMac got quite a lot of uptime since I got it repaired so I think it is repaired. They didn't repaired it correctly last time. ._.

Indeed, but we never know. If it was assembled on a Monday morning when workers are still recovering from an hangover or on Friday afternoon when they are exhausted from their week of work, it's possible that the computer is just a lemon and have plenty of other defects (and I heard that batch of iMacs in particular was plagued with problems, while other iMacs were fine).
