    Windows XP, with Windows 10+ terminal, using Linux directories.

    Though if you look at the internet taskbar icon it’s a Windows 7/10+ icon, so it may all be a skin running on cygwin/wsl)

    Also the internet icon shows there is Internet.

        Macintosh Pus actually. At least I hope it’s a Plus. If they gutted a 128k or 512k that would be sad.

          Macintosh Pus? 😂🤣

          I’d leave the spelling error, I got a good laugh. 👍

          There’s been runs of new plastic cases by some companies. I considered getting one and putting modern parts inside as a project, but didn’t have the cash at the time. Could be something like that.

        I find it funny how common menu replacements are on Windows nowadays. I used to run ClassicShell/OpenShell back when I used Windows 10, but I was the odd one and no one else I talked to even knew about it.

        Now I know more than a handful of people who daily drive RetroBar or something similar on Windows 11. Even if they’re not the type of person who typically customize their setups. Guess that’s just a sign of how bad M$ has been screwing up their UX design lately.

          Them killing my ability to have the task bar moved to the top of the screen has pushed me over the edge. I’ve been a Linux fiddler for decades, now I’m going to try full time.

      The Internet icon is a fucking liar, and if you don’t agree with me you haven’t been on enough networks.

      Also the internet icon shows there is Internet.

      Looks to me like the icon that indicates the machine being connected to a network, but that network is not connected to the Internet.

        “Connected to the Internet” is a spectrum from “no network interface available” to “can reach every server that people agree is ‘online’”. Is it enough to have a working TCP/IP stack, receive a ping reply from connectivitycheck.android.com (or other arbitrary server), or do you have to know if there’s a firewall (like in China)?

    It’s the Windows taskbar. They used to let you move it to the top but had to remove that feature to support CoPilot.

      I am a left side taskbar kind of guy. No room for me in default Windows either anymore.

        I hated this change, I’ve used a side taskbar in windows my entire IT career. It makes it painfully obvious which taskbar is yours and which is the servers when logged in over RDP. With this simple tweak, I had quite literally never made a click error on a remote server… Until windows 11.

        I used to do this back before browsers had tabs and everyone I told thought I was nuts for doing it, now I just don’t care.

          I have a left taskbar and then my left browser nested tab bar. (Vivaldi, but I used to do this in Opera too) It’s definitely better now with Ultrawide monitors.

        I use two taskbars. The one on top has my menu, quick-launch icons, date/time display, weather and notifications. The one on the bottom has my actual tasks.

        Of course, I’m not using Windows.

      I completely missed the taskbar at the top. Thought the guy was wondering what the 3.5 floppy drive was.

      StartAllBack restores this functionality. (It also allows you to arrange the taskbar icons and buttons any way you see fit, and even replace the entire Start menu with the one from Win7, 8.1, or 10.)

      literally the thing that made me decide to finally look into linux, recently resulting in my switching to it, is that for years Ive liked to have the taskbar on the right side on autohide, and on windows 11 they took away the ability to put it there.

      I’ve had top taskbar auto hide since Win95.

      MacOS got it right back in 1984 but Windows insisted on doing it wrong like an edgy teen wearing their baseball cap to the side.

    Cool Retro Term has finally added hardware support. They even included the vertical wrap-around when a capacitor is about to pop!

      My waybar/polybar is up there, not sure it qualifies as a taskbar but if so I’ll have you know it’s feelings are hurt.
