Yesterday, a coworker told me it was December first and asked if I knew what that meant. I made a guess, but it wasn’t what he was looking for.

He exclaimed, with cheerful exuberance, “It’s time to run xsnow!”

There are even versions that work on Windows and on Macs so you can still join in if you’re not running Linux.

Here’s a screenshot of my desktop.
