Minimalist config file for conky with time, date and IP address

It's been a while since I've published anything on this blog. This time, I just want to share you my very simple .conkyrc file.

It is a rather minimalist conky setup giving you only the time, date, use of RAM and CPU and the IP address. As I often need to ssh into this computer from other computers in my local network, this is the fastest way to keep track of the current IP.
