+ <div class="twocol justify"><p>The year 2020 transformed my personal computing experience. In March 2020, I
+stumbled upon Arch Linux and discovered that I could customize my desktop
+environment to look and work any way I liked. I exercised that newfound freedom
+to create a Matrix-themed setup:</p>
+
+<p><img src="linux.png" alt="Arch Linux" /></p>
+
+<p>The system employs the X display server and the i3 window manager. The terminal
+emulator used is Urxvt. The translucent effect is achieved with the help of the
+Xcompmgr compositor. This sort of setup was popular among minimalist Linux
+users.</p>
+
+<p>In February 2024, I switched to an OpenBSD system with Xenocara (the OpenBSD
+build of X display server) as the display server and i3 as the window manager:</p>

+<p><img src="openbsd.png" alt="OpenBSD i3" /></p>
+
+<p>Unlike Linux, OpenBSD includes a coherent desktop environment out of the box.
+Except for the window manager, for which I prefer a tiling one, I’m now using
+the default OpenBSD setup. For the window manager, I use dwm from the Suckless
+team.</p>
