Thank you, I'll try it out. I've been trying to set up my perfect desktop for a long time. Most of the wm seem to have the ability to do what I want but no details on how to go about doing it.

I just got done cleaning and updating my desktop.
I haven't figured out setting location for the weather display on Rainmeter yet
>>43304943
I think you have used enough rainmeter already, all you should be doing is removing it...
>>43304359
Jealous of what?
I wanted disk encryption and the only way to do it on Kubuntu is to let the installer make its own partition scheme. I'm too lazy to change it now, though.
>>43304969
Much better now.
>jealous of what
Your retina display.
>>43305008
It has a "dead pixel" in it. In reality I found out it's a spec of dirt, but it makes it look like a stuck pixel.
It's really annoying
>>43304935
how to get my firefox like that
>>43303087
>>43305025
How can you notice a dead pixel on it? It has like thousands of them.
>>43304943
I used to be like this when I was new to rainmeter, I really wanted to make my desktop overly rice, but then i realized it was mostly useless and that rainmeter is best used in a simple and non invasive way. I still do everything the same as before I used it, it just adds a little info and convenience and still looks nice.
>>43304963
Its still a really useful tool and def worth keeping, he just using it excessively
pic related, sanic implied
hai.
>>43305070
Because the spec of dirt is bigger than one pixel. It's like 2x2 in terms of pixel size.
Even if it was only one pixel it'd still be noticeable on dark colors.
I'm trying out evilwm at the moment.
>>43305070
>thousands

With C you can compile it in to dwm.
But I agree.
I find bash to be perfectly suited for displaying status info.

What do you fags use for your top panel? tint2? Bar Ain't Recursive? Something else?
>>43309422
well, it's i3, so you'd have to push Alt+Enter for a terminal and Alt+D for dmenu, the launcher
just testing
>>43303087
>Kodomo no Jikan
>Adult woman
mah nigga
>>43309458
And god its good when you get used to it
.
I got into the habit of using hotkeys when I still used windows, I guess the dmenu is similar to hitting super and typing back on windows though.
I try to get people to stop clicking things all the time, but even my friends who consider them tech enthusiasts wont even use the search box in windows.
It's not hard to switch to using the keyboard mostly, and it makes things so much quicker. I guess people just like clicking things though.
Not that I can talk I only figured out last week that alt+(1,2,3...) switches to that tab in firefox. Using the super key for i3 and alt for firefox makes getting around pretty easy.

>>43310161
>judging based on screen full of windows
lel
>>43310148
I kind of want to bind a hotkey to make padding.
It'd be purely for posting rice pictures though.
I'd still post it with a skinnier padding but. That's just me.
>>43310187
I was actually trying that but it wasn't possible with my set up, my next attempt will be making a certain tyling style high padding and the rest none IDK yet
the padding does make it easier to differentiate between windows though
>>43310170
but it's just so...
bad
>>43310209
I hide borders normally, I haven't bothered to look but if I can colour my borders as transparent I could abuse that to simulate adding padding.
I haven't even tried yet though. I heard it's not possible to bind a hotkey to do it in i3 thats all.
I usually find differentiating between windows fine. I try not to have more than like 3/4 programs open on each workspace though.
>>43310224
please explain why, here I lowered the padding just for you
>>43310238
this is an x61 so the resolution is so low it often makes things seem crammed together without padding, its a lot more useable with at least some; it's also the reason for the thick borders, I am using Pytyle2
>>43310260
yeah, i use 1366*768, and while its generally pretty useable sometimes I do envy higher resolutions.
I use my desktop pc for anything that demands a higher resolution though, nothing I do on my notebook needs it, it'd just be nice.
>>43310254

Go suck an asshole.
BASIC was one of the very early languages.
VB may not be difficult to learn, and I DID actually know SOME BASIC at one point just from a few online pages, but I never actually got around to learning how to make anything useful with it.
I made a test web browser once, but it sucked.
And
>VB in uni
Yeah, because they didn't teach this shit in high school.
I probably would've been all over programming classes if they had them.
And what about C++, huh? I said I'm taking a class in that too.
I'm not even a CS major OR a CIS major. I'm an International Business major, you dumbass.
(Although, I was Electrical Engineering in my first semester of college, but the reason I quit that is the same reason I'm not majoring in Computer SCIENCE: I fucking hate Calculus (though it does make more sense than Accounting...)
So, considering I'm not actually even IN THE FIELD, it's not as bullshit as you think. I can't even technically TAKE a Web Programming course, because that's after Computer Programming II. Before I got that book in May, I didn't even know what the fuck PHP was (other than Personal Home Page [or PHP Hypertext Preprocessor])
And now I already have signups, logins, logouts, profile page creation, redirects, and a working database in MySQL.
Give it like two years, and I'll probably know C++, Ruby, C, C#, VB, BASIC, and Java.
(Mostly interested in C, C#, and C++ to make an OS).
But, for this website, some assholes like you said it'd never see the light of day (around Christmas).
It's already like 40% done, and I still got a month before classes start back up. So, whatever asshole said that can eat their words when it launches and gets profitable.

what the fuck is that terminal pipes program called.
> inb4 google it
wtf do you think comes up when you search "terminal pipes"?

I... what
You actually have legit mental issues. I'm sorry that I made fun of you.

I was taught how to program BASIC on a C64 in primary school. what the flying fuckery is going on in schools these days??! i'm shocked. we have all these awesome tech are teachers are getting more retarded? fuck... this shit makes me mad.
My other hard drive seemed to be failing so I installed Malware Windows and other Malware like Foobar and League of Legends to play with my girlfriend. Don't judge.
Also, is Windows only allowed to be installed on what it calls "disk 0"? I had to unplug my other HDD to even install it. Also why can't these "paid developers" create some drivers for generic hardware?
The only thing that doesn't remind me of early 90's/late 80's tech in this software is the looks.

Some teachers are good.
but at least 50% learn as they go and are basically students themselves.

Lucky.
Literally the only computers class we had in high school was like how to use the Internet and Microsoft Word. We may have done a little Excel and PowerPoint...
And that was only a half-year course.
We did like a couple presentations or some shit...
In primary school, though? They let us in a room with computers and either let us play games or forced us to do "proper typing" programs.
I was never offered ANY kind of programming until college unless I knew where to look on the Internet. And most of those guide are incomplete for someone completely new to a language.

Holy shit I'm so glad I'm not american
We're taught java and assembly over here in germany in school. Also my school's library was filled with books about programming so I was able to teach myself delphi as a kid

Yeah, ok, I see what you're getting at, but believe it or not, I barely had enough anger to do anything more than have an angry look on my face and a very slightly angry voice while reading what I typed.
I actually typed that pretty calmly. But, I don't need assholes who don't even know my situation to be saying what little I've done with what little training I've been offered is pathetic/not worth shit/etc.
As I stated in this post
>>43311611
I never had a REAL computer course AVAILABLE to me until college.
I WISH I could've learned programming in primary and high school, even VB in like 6th grade or something, then maybe regular BASIC and some intro C/C++ stuff in high school, but I had no teachers who could do that.
In fact the closest thing to a legit computer teacher we had was laid off and the principal's husband taught that class I mentioned.
In high school, the closest thing to legit programming I had was making some programs using AutoHotKey (although for macros, they were pretty good - GUI displays, if-else things for quizzes, etc.), but I had no access to teachers for a REAL programming language until college.
I didn't even get to learn Photoshop until my third semester in college. We didn't even have THAT in high school.
It just pisses me off that the work I've actually done to learn this stuff get shit on by assholes when I try to soothe my own ego by making these things seem better than they are for my own benefit. You think I don't know this is entry-level stuff?
But, considering I AM entry-level AND I've worked hard to learn it, it's kinda some of the best I can be proud of in terms of programming...
