    Wow, that's some crazy tight color theming!

    I've got several gigs of wallpapers from the "Microsoft Signature" wallpapers in Win10 that I scraped with a shell script in #cygwin on the one windows box I occasionally use. XD

  2. @thelinuxcast I could sleep out, (is that a phrase, 'ik slaap uit' in Dutch), I'd keep in bed 'till 8:00, but tomorrow I've to catch the 8:04 train, sô 6:45 it is..

    #NS Dutch railways, more #pünktlich (punctual) than the #deutschebahn :-) just kidding with my next door neighbour

  3. @thelinuxcast #voidlinux is more in the experienced / advanced linux user area. I just installed it last week on a laptop and it went well - just one issue with locking the screen when lid closes that I'm working on. 1+ weeks in, a very nice distro and I like it a lot! But more time is needed.

    Base install + Xorg and #dusk / #dwm / #spectrwm (in their repo) /

  8. @mirabilos @joel @tilvids @sotolf @benjaminhollon @thelinuxcast

    I actually really like , mostly because it's little more than a distillation/refinement of some wiki formats I've used in the past, like and older versions of @TiddlyWiki (which I really loved).

    But no, TeX, it ain't. It's not even trying to be @mediawiki.

    There are definitely better formats if precision is a goal. Maybe ? (I really don't know anything about it).

  9. @thelinuxcast So, I got the newer rack in today. It's also from Amazon. I haven't figured out how to get the peel off of it (I can't find a good starting point), but it definitely works well, and is a better plastic than the horizontal one I had before.

  13. So with my homelab computer, I want to have it so that it stays on during the day, and then at night it will hibernate. Do any of the desktop environments allow you to set this up? Or is there a tool out there that will let me schedule power management in this way? #Linux #linuxquestions

  14. We're going to be podcasting today, but we'll be a bit late.

  16. @thelinuxcast @thelinuxcast, excellent way to vent, love it!

    My single favorite thing about #linux is simply the breadth of choice it gives us across nearly every aspect of it. Choice however, whist being the greatest thing we have, is also arguably the worst. Most people simply want a device they can turn on, and it gives them what they expect to see. I love nothing more than poking around at ux/ui stuff I'm unfamiliar with. Mostly just to gain that missing familiarity, never actually wanting any part of that change I cherish so much. I have been using the same (somewhat updated) #e16 / #gentoo configs for ~20 years.

    The whole Windows Start Button whining thing is absolutely ridiculous; why not give people the choice to put it where they want? Also, being forced to use windows for work as many of us are, I've learned something new now that Win11 has been imposed upon us. Windows seems to no longer have a stock way (that I've yet to find) of allowing you to move the taskbar as it has in previous versions. For those of us who remember those times before windows policy restrictions at work; there used to be (maybe still) entire shell replacements we could set to run instead of 'explorer.exe' that were extremely customizable. #DarkStep and #LiteStep are the two I remember using most, there were a few more but none were quite as well built. There were even a couple of them that'd replace the window decoration too.
