Desktop Thread: Windows edition
It's Windows, honest.
in this screenshot my windows are in floating mode
Linux is more fun though.

Not a fan of my saturation, I suppose? Luckily for you, it's not your desktop.
>>52094532
Thanks, just gotta get john to give me his seamonkey theme and it'll be perfect
I started using it again to get space engine working, but that crashes whenever I load it, so here I am
>>52094600
What's a good browser with few dependencies that looks nice and has javascripts?
>>52094682
I did not mean to quote you.
>>52094682
google chrome
>>52094699
To think I started a long response answering your question
>>52094721
I can't compile that :/
>>52094733
its actually chromium
>>52094730
Well if you have a good reason to use seamonkey i'd love an explanation, i'm using lynx at the moment.. it's not fun.
wm: dwm
term: urxvt
browser: surf
>>52094343
>>52094741
They don't even have instructions on how to build from source on their website..
>>52094792
use gentoo
>>52094746
Seamonkey performs great and looks great, but it's hard to get in a minimal ahoka style because of it's incompatibilities with many extensions and css'.
Then again, I rarely ever use it. Firefox is my main browser on linux.
>>52094600
how do you deal with the lack of hardware acceleration classic has?
>>52094819
I dunno, you mean like compositing? I just do.

Is xorg the best display server that doesn't require systemd?
>>52094748
why aren't you using st
>>52094943
All signs point to yes
>>52094905
Is tan/orange suddenly eye-bleedingly ugly now? When did this happen?
>>52094969
Basically, full UTF support. A lot of programs don't display correctly on st, and urxvt consumes basically the exact same amount of resources. It's not as clean code-wise, but the usability of it is just a bit better, without being slower. All of suckless's other stuff is GOAT, though.

Linux feels so good /g/. So so good.
>>52095306
That's a great wallpaper, can you post the original?
>>52095306
If only it looked good too
>>52095215
Turn on a light, faggot. I'm assuming you're using some custom CSS to make 4chins look dark enough for mummy's basement, too?
That's better.
>>52095340
jokes on you, i live in an above-ground basement :^)\
>>52095276
It's not that it looks better it's that the way they drew Ritsu's mouth in that particular image is terrible, it's far too open for her lips to be closed on the profile of her face. Compare the Mugi ones and you'll see that the top looks better when it's done right.
>>52095340
Not him, but I actually do have CSS to make most things I use daily dark. Even then I turn on my light the moment I wake up and have it on until I go to bed, and I don't live in a basement. It's just less straining on the eyes.
It just doesn't feel the same

Asuka likes high resolution displays and doesn't care about free software.
>>52094419
It really isn't, since every GNU/Linux desktop posted on /g/ looks the same.
>>52096162
that's the point m8
the frontend looks similar, but the background is unique
>>52096162
every Windows desktop ever looks the same

>>52096077
Boards are sorted by posts per hour on the front page.... Of course I've been on the website itself, but I didn't use it for much and never came back.
>>52096176
Windows desktops on 4chan rarely have the following:
>anime girl placed on a single-color as a wallpaper
>windowed picture of an anime girl in an image viewer
>windowed music player with bar visualization
>ASCII OS logo in a terminal with listed specs
Desktop threads are about seeing who ticks the most check boxes to fit in with /g/. You see one desktop thread, you've seen them all. Yet bizarrely, they're a constant fixture on this board despite providing nothing substantive.
>>52096162

You removed part of the mouth.
>>52095132
Gotta ask, how do you get these empty spaces between windows in i3? Like, you have two on the left and two on the right. How is the middle empty?
>>52096313
really doesn't
>>52096350
You have to be a professional programmer with years of experience and know how to read the manual to enter floating mode.
>>52096350
That's a desktop image they stole, so they can't answer you but most likely the original user either floated the windows or used i3-msg open.
>>52096350
To answer your first question, use i3-gaps by Airblader. To answer your second, he isn't actually tiling; those are floating windows he set up.
>>52096352
yes it does tho

Hey guys, currently using a very fresh Ubuntu install.
How do I change the color scheme of gnome-terminal to something which suits my wallpaper? You guys all seem to have it like that.
Thanks

sudo apt-get install rxvt-unicode

Are these mac or linux?
>>52097320
those are GNU/Linux
>>52097298
This is a very cryptic response.
>>52096978
what browser is that? css?
>>52097291
I know what rxvt is... sort of, but what do the other two commands do. Is XResources where the colour themes are stored?
>>52097349
>>52097254
>>52097292
Nice
>>52097349
Is that a tiled wallpaper? Can you post tile please?
>>52097427
Judging by the big V icon it's Vivaldi maybe.
>>52097441
It's one of the default GNOME 3 wallpapers.
>>52097429
The second one isn't a command. You have to edit a config file that you have to make, and it controls what happens to urxvt. The last line is the command to change settings in urxvt.
>>52097429
>sudo apt-get install rxvt-unicode
Install URxvt, a good terminal.
>-edit .XResources-
He mean you should edit your "~/.Xresources" file with whatever color scheme you want. If you don't have the file, just create it. You can try color schemes exported from terminal.sexy (website).
>xrdb ~/.XResources
Updates the settings, launch a new terminal and it should have your new colors.

Spatry XFCE Manjaro?
>>52097542
>>52097511
Thank you. this terminal is pretty neat actually.
So all I need to do now is get a script which makes an Xresources file from my wallpaper?
Some of the schemes here:
https://github.com/baskerville/xresources-color-schemes
are pretty neat but the ones in this thread look way nicer
>>52097500
Damn, I was hoping for another tile similar to pic related. Thanks for posting this though.
>>52097589
You can make your own.
http://terminal.sexy can be useful for that.
>>52097551
Nice leather texture on that wallpaper.
>>52097589
>So all I need to do now is get a script which makes an Xresources file from my wallpaper?
You could do that. Or you can create your own, or you can export someone elses. In the previous post I mentioned terminal.sexy, it's a pretty good tool if you want to create one yourself, and it also has a bunch of presets if you look in the Sheme Browser tab. As for generating from wallpaper, I don't know the names of any tools that can do that.

Void or Puppy
>>52097837
Not that bad. I'm a bit slow though, you're supposed to spend like ~30 minutes on a room, I average like ~40, mostly because I feel like double checking everything all of the time.
>>52097841
I'm impressed, maybe try a bsd?
>>52097841
gentoo is pretty easy to maintain, even with a lot of your own packages. overlays are nice
>>52097883
I'm sure you'll get faster the more times you do it correctly
>>52097883
what's your job?
>>52097860
That's actually not a bad idea, thanks.
>>52097877
Void lacks packages in my experience. once they get that fixed i'll probably switch as it's my favorite so far. As for puppy, i could do a bit of reading and see if it's good for a main os.
>>52097884
I tried freebsd for a day and nothing worked, my laptop(t440p) isn't suppoted very well :c
>>52097896
I've used a bit of gentoo but is there any reason to use it over any other source based distro? Portage is nice but i don't mind manual dependcy resolution.
>>52097911
I clean hotel rooms.

That's too bad, have it on one of my pi's sd cards, it's not supported at all in the repos so I have a lot of compiling and 3rd party repos to mess with. Seems nice otherwise.
