    Spring time calls for a new wallpaper.
    That and rainy/stormy weather. Just seemed to fit.

    Also gasmasks are just incredibly sexy.
    For some reason some icons for games don't work. Not sure why, but don't sweat the small stuff. ]:
    Okay go.

    Why would you need 80 different wallpapers exactly?

    I don't like cluttered desktops. Also @Elk: I can imagine your computer being pretty slow.

    According to other people, it is pretty slow. But my old computer was complete shit, so I guess I don't notice it myself.
    It holds up pretty well.

    Press Windows key + R
    Type in: "msconfig"
    Press "Services"
    Tick "Hide Windows services"
    Remove any unneeded services
    Press "Startup"
    Untick any unneeded programs that start on boot

    Reboot and watch your computer go at least 40% faster.

    Something that I need to get off my ass and actually work on (Probably should have hidden it, amongst other things on my desktop)
