1) sudo bash -c 'echo -e "tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,mode=1777,noatime,nosuid,nodev 0 0 \n" >> /etc/fstab' # Put /tmp on tmpfs - big performance improvement, good for SSD life, battery backup.
2) sudo apt remove clipit peg-e swell-foop gnome-mahjongg lbreakout2 # Remove games and CipIt
3) Disable ClipIt, Blueman, Conky startup items from "Session and Startup"
4) Add sh -c 'rm -rf ~/.cache ; mkdir ~/.cache' to be run on shutdown ( in "Session and startup" ) - Cleans and regenerates ~/.cache
5) Create folder ~/Desktop/Screenshots and add sh -c 'scrot ~/Desktop/Screenshots/"%r %F screenshot".jpg' for Print key in Keyboard shortcuts (replacing xfce4-screenshooter in the Print shortcut)
