#OSMockups Ubuntu, now available in your car.

A desktop of the car interface of Ubuntu, consisting of the Ubuntu layout. At the centre of the mockup are 3 widgets: the left one shows the map view, with the speed indicator at the top enclosed in a rounded pill. The bottom-right shows a search box, with the indicator text saying "Search for places." The top right shows the music widget, with controls similar to Apple CarPlay. The music widget shows the playing music (Bill Haley and His Comets - Round Around the Clock).

WinMacNux (2008) tried to mesh gnome 2, windows vista, and mac os x leopard in 1 while also making it feel somewhat lived in. remake from an old mockup @mondyspartan.bsky.social did back in 2024: bsky.app/profile/mond...

Nostalgia is a weapon. You don’t miss the early 2000s, you miss being a stupid child. You want to be stupid again. You want your parents to take care of you. You are 12.

If #KDE Plasma made its way into the car screen... (#OSMockups)

A car dashboard modelled after KDE Plasma. The taskbar at the bottom shows the icons on the left and the time on the right. There are 3 widgets. The one on the left is just the KDE start button. The top right is the analog clock. The bottom right is the music player.

the difference awaits... (See the Difference)

A snippet of the start menu, showing the user icon and navigation icons at the top. The tiles for Netscape, Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Media, Camera, and News can be seen. The contacts tile consists of a grid of user pictures, while the calendar tile shows the date "Saturday / 17."

Bluesky circa 2002's main UI.

A Windows XP desktop circa 2002 with an era-appropriate client for Bluesky open. 6 posts can be seen on screen (from me, mondyspartan, aliasmaychange, strawman1982, the BBC and "in4years") with one by unoffstarman just off screen. The posts are all era appropriate albeit slightly anachronistic - one mentions Discord Messenger while another predicts the Wii. To the right are the feeds and trending tags (including the War on Terror, Pokemon 4Ever, GTA Vice City, etc.)

It's fascinating to see the changes in one company's logo over the years.

A bunch of microsoft logos from the 70s, 80s, 90s and today but instead of saying Microsoft all of them spell Microslop in the vibe of the original logos.

Today, I reveal to you the potential of my new alternative timeline. This is See the Difference. See the Difference is a butterfly-effect alternative timeline where the Great Depression never happened and technological progress went much faster. We'll reveal 2 companies for now: Essence and Ternius.
