It's not, it's I hate the default options presented and the last time I had to the motivation to really do something about it, I had attention span X so I ended up with Y which is better but not by much.

That does look kind of like my current setup. KDE has changed more than I was aware, will have to look deeper..
Edit: I totally forgot XP had the colorful theme by default, I guess my setup is 2000-inspired..
Thanks, unfortunately my pc's bones stem from 2008 (building a new one has been on my todo list for..I don't know...8 years?) so VMs aren't really an option, installing something on another partition is faster.
I do still have my own openbox config somewhere that's also beautiful, imo, but not very productive. Never looked at sway or cosmic and didn't realize KDE changed as much as it did.
Not the log you flush?
These in-ear things never worked for me either until they started making custom hearing protection with removable filters which are compatible with most in-ear headphones. And the best thing is that you don't need active noise canceling (depending on the openness of the headphones) because the thing is made to cancel noise. Downside is that they usually amplify bass much more than regular tips so you need to use an EQ.
Btw, it's possible to get some custom in-ear headphones where everything, including the tip, is one piece of plastic, which is supposed to sound fantastic, if you're willing to spend a ridiculous amount of money.

Chubby is possible but not without designing your own process/machines
Please read again or comment on where I'm not clear. I'm trying to express about the exact opposite, I don't really care that much about how visually pleasing it is, I care about how usable it is. That usability is largely defined by contrast, largely because I'm don't have the eyes of a 7 year old.
