Hey guys.
I've been on the typical l33t tiling wm setup for as long as I can remember, but I want to ditch it for a conventionally pretty ootb DE. Any suggestions? KDE, Gnome?
>>54015209
Here's my suggestion:
>>>/reddit/
>>54015209
You are gonna have to try them out for yourself. Xfce is good too, with gnome though you have to remember the devs fuck up the themes and break shit with almost every update
>>54015196

>>54015218
Xfce is shit and ugly, though. I used it for about a month on my first install.

>>54015361
Do you make those wallpapers with an ascii converter or do you find them like that?
>>54015386
that's just a pixelated picture in ranger
>>54015401
a little of both...that 1 was copied...converter wasn't doing it justice
>>54015277
how did you do that with that image
>>54015422
Oh, that is better.

Is there a way to disable lyrics fetching with ncmpcpp?
>>54016431
I like you.
>>54016436
follow_now_playing_lyrics = "no"
(i think)
>>54016516
That already seems to be the default (commented option with defaults). Also, it appears to affect which song's lyrics are fetched upon pressing the button (current or selected).
>>54015530
what browser is that
>>54016393
pretty nice...what OS?
>>54016535
debian 8.3
>>54016527
>>54016516
Nope, according to the man page it automatically fetches lyrics on song change while in the lyrics screen.

Plain .css for that startpage, my man. Have you thought about making it a little bit more "material"? :^)
>>54016735

I'd like a setup similar to this but with mouse management (because seriously how do you even select text in firefox without mouse support)

To improve your desktop:
Get rid of the anime, anime is considered to be for normies these days
Get a different icon theme, yours is too widely used and considered normie tier

I wonder if we'll get the same trip.
I installed Arch on my shitty laptop to play around with a tiling wm. I have a newfound respect for ricing but customising everything is going to take forever. I'm going back to Spynet.

If that honestly is Windows 10, how'd you manage to get it to look like that? God I wish Win10 had the customization of linux.

how to achieve this aesthetic?

>>54021098
What's the difference between bblean and bbzero?

bbzero is an updated bblean to 64bit; it's best for win 8+
>>54021197
Saved that pic, thanks dood
>>54021197
Oh? I'm super tempted to get bblean but don't really know much about it. Is there anything that we sacrifice by going to bblean?

>>54021244
no, and you can always switch back to eplorer if you don't like it; bblean is just a shell replacement
>>54021286
It's ironic
>>54021339
Alright, when I find some free time to completely re-do the aesthetics of my desktop then I'll definitely try it.
>>54021433

right click on desktop and then uncheck the show recycle bin option. then delete all the files on your desktop. then watch ANIMe
>>54022742
i was going to say that's dumb but then I realised i use terminals for pretty much everything too
but that's just 'cause i'm too lazy to rice anything outside of firefox and terminals
why is gtk so gay

i3 and awesome have mouse support, you can tile windows or move them around with the mouse. Select workspaces or even trigger scripts you are running in the bar. Awesome has a left click menu with apps and/or commands.

Okay, I installed Arch on my old computer because gentoo took too long to compile everything. I made my hostname gensokyo, and then decided I wanted to set up one of those old-school unix userlands, where /home had more than one directory, usergroups matter, with different shells and configurations, and where most stuff is installed locally for each user. So I'm gonna do something like that with a bunch of Touhou characters with different themes for each and see how it turns out (root is obviously me).
