Hype for the Future 45F: CWM → The Basics
Prior to beginning the video, novaTopFlex shall launch a 540x960 VNC server session on port 5901, using TigerVNC and the cwm startup file. The window manager shall be tested as follows: Press Control-Meta-Return to spawn a new terminal. Press Meta-Return to hide the terminal window. Press Meta-Slash to search for windows.

Ah, the glorious days when the X Window System didn't have X terminals! 😱 Now, you're probably blocked from reading this because your HTTP UserAgent is too "generic"—a fate worse than death! 💀 Remember, kids, if your UserAgent isn't as unique as a snowflake, you'll be banished from the kingdom of #WanderingThoughts forever! ❄️👑

A good explanation of why cursors are bugged in many apps running on Wayland and why that's actually a good thing for the user - things are improving in the right direction with Wayland, DPI wise.
https://blogs.kde.org/2024/10/09/cursor-size-problems-in-wayland-explained/
This also applies to Qt Flatpak apps running on Gnome and other combinations.

@matt The stipple was great when first configuring LCD displays. It would be instantly clear whether you got the resolution correct or not (Moiré & other artifacts or no). I never found another pattern that worked so well for that. When I did IT circa 2010 I had a little 4x4 .png of it I'd carry around on thumb drive to set the background to even on Windows computers to verify the resolution. #XWindowSystem #X11

To celebrate the X Window System's 40th birthday, I did a deep dive on something about it: the iconography of its boot-up stipple (that gray pattern you first see as the X Server starts up):

Did you know the stipple has a name, age, and cultural significance to the ecosystem? I'll share my personal history with it. What's yours?

Turns out I can hashtag the real new logo recently given to #Twitter without having to resort to #X.
#𝕏
Sometimes I really love the hashtag system on #Hubzilla that lets me put all kinds of characters into hashtags.
Still, I'm waiting for #ElonMusk to sue the #XorgFoundation, maintainer of the display manager #Xorg that won't fully replace #Wayland for years to come, over the name, the logo and the domain x.org. The X.org Foundation has been around for almost 20 years under that name, and their logo is that of the #XWindowSystem which is almost 30 years old.
May #Musk go broke over pumping billions into his lawyers trying to fight against #PriorArt before he makes himself the laughing stock of the Internet even more trying to buy out a non-profit foundation in a hostile takeover.

Hoy quise entrar a Twitter, y me enteré que ahora se llama x.com.
Y por un momento pensé que la Xorg Foundation había comprado la red social 🤣
Elon, un poquito más de creatividad en el logo eh!
(no voy a negar que, por un micro-segundo, me imaginé un X.com de código abierto)

Anyone else thinks that the new & extremely annoying
#twitter
logo looks stupidly like the X Windows System
#xwindowsystem
logo? Now there was a time when the X.Org Foundation
#XOrgFoundation
could be EXTREMELY litigious & I'm sure their lawyers are just hibernating not dead.

CW: bad jokes at elon's expense
The #birdsite aka #twitter is now the #XWindowSystem site, but let's get ahead of the curve, shall we? The next name will probably be this

i hope the #XWindowSystem sues the shit out of #X and #MuskyMusk for brand infringement
how clueless can you be?
#spacekaren: yes!! -
That X logo for #Twitter reminds me of something… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System #XWindowSystem #XWindows
