My phone vibrates when it wants to notify me. My screen goes blank when not in use. My desktop background is a dark solid color. This text is in your browser's standard font and size. If there's an opportunity for personalization I probably won't take it.

I have only a weak desire for personalization, and I enjoy the simplicity that comes from keeping to most minimal configurations.
