This makes polybar less obtrusive, however I've been considering
removing it in the long-term to maximize screen estate. Although polybar
is cute, I don't *need* to know everything in the bar every second I use
the computer. Having specialized commands or keybinds that show certain
information seems more useful in this case.

Some information, such as the date and time, could become a part of the
wallpaper itself, making blank desktops more useful than they are now.
Although widgets are also an option, I have not verified how well these
work under my current setup yet.
