Nice socks but not unix, doesn't belong here

Try programmingsocks
- You may not like it, but the rules say "any operating system is fine". I don't like Windows either, but this post is technically correct.
  
  "as long as you're doing cool, or unique stuff with it"
  
  This seems like a low effort post, vanilla Windows setup with a pair of socks.
  
  So why is it called !UNIXsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone then?
Specs of the socks?, asking for a friend
Where's the XP setup?

I see a laptop with Windows 11?, and a big screen with what looks like a Windows 7 task bar but none of the pretty, blocky XP menu or the lovely paper airplanes flying between folders.

And where's the customary fetch script hmmm?

Also ddr1 RAM is impressive lol
- it's the monitor above the laptop, i'm using the Windows XP "Zune" theme (which is orange and black btw) because it looks nice, should've made it more clear
  
  also yeah it's socket 939 they all run ddr1 :)
  
  Wow, I didn't know that there was theming for XP, is it natively supported?
Great to see someone using the black and orange XP theme. What was it called, media center or something?
- it's called "zune" but yea it's my favourite windows xp theme so far
Next step to full rock it > Arch.. BTW
- i was considering a dual boot but i don't want to go to linux juuussttt yet
smash
- lol :3
