Linux Lite Forums

This is a little event we do on the LDC forums, so we spread the love to this forum! Post away! Screenshots have to be strictly Linux Lite.

...that reminds me of my service at Holloman AFB, New Mexico (1982-1985)...

What did you do there?

Hello, Valtam!

I repaired the base's electronic crypto machines. Some of them were used to encrypt and decrypt what were the forerunners of today's emails. Others scrambled phone calls. The "red phone" was mainly used by Gen. Charles A. (Chuck) Horner, who went on to lead the air campaign of the 1991 Gulf War, Desert Shield.

They did (and still do) a lot of testing at Holloman AFB, so we also had smaller devices, used to encrypt missile telemetry. About the size of a pack of cigarettes, they flew in both AMRAAM and Patriot missiles.

The fighters also had devices that encrypted their radios. Different people worked on those, but they still sent me to school to learn how to repair them anyway...

It is simple but I like it.

Linux Lite ONLY Screenshots please folks, I've already had to delete one post from another distro. I certainly wouldn't go on the Ubuntu forums and say, 'hey, check out my Gentoo screenshot'.  >

MacOs look. LL logo on each end of dock because one is XFCE menu on left and Whisker menu on right. Haven't decided which I like best.

Lookin' good Coastie, that is a great simple look.

Thanks. I like a simple and uncluttered look on my computer desktop. My wife wishes I kept everything else that way too.  ;D

Here is my desktop

Ok been trying to get my screen shot to show up here and it seems I am unable to do so. But you do have it there in the attachment. Hope that works, Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks
