Apparently I’ve started living a half life
Lately I have been somewhat bored with my regular computer activities, programming, hacking, and such. Almost so badly that I decided that I needed something else to get addicted at or I would get depressed… So I decided to pick up my old hobby and passion: computer games - 1st person shooters that is.

Half-Life screenshot from very early in game when everything is just about to get really bad.
So I got myself a copy of Half-Life. Yes, some consider it old but I still love DooM, so age was not an issue - and there is a huge amount of games that I always planned to play but never got to. Half-Life is one of them and it has been reviewed excellent and also highly praised by most of my friends (well, one said it sucks). And it was mentioned to work perfectly with Linux+
Wine.
So, it’s been 2 days since I started and I got hooked into it right away. Yesterday I in fact played it for several hours without any breaks - boy did my mouse hand hurt after the session :) So thats it for now, time for my other hobbies.

Not sure if I understood you completely but sure it would, IMHO, be. The theme I use is a version of Simplicity with minor modifications I’ve made to suit my needs.
