What DE do you use on your GNU/Linux home server?

None.

Arch ARMv7

Just werks

Why would you need a DE on your server?

>>60798616
GNOME

Bash

>>60798668
nice DE where do I get it

>>60798758
>having a DE on a home server
are you retarded?

>>60798701
This, it was suggested in the handbook I was following. It's very snappy without all of the usual desktop crap installed. I have a couple of GUI monitoring and security packages , so I figured it would make life easier.

>>60798780
There's a given option. I choose it. Fuck off tripfag.

KDE

>>60798780
baited for this exact response

why would you install one?

>>60798799

cd code
cd..
cd..
cd..
cd ..
ls
cd code
cd ..
cd

>>60798780
It's fine on a home server because you aren't using a million processes or serving to more than a handful of machines. Any serious production server, nah, it's only asking for trouble.

But what's the point? It stops becoming a server when you start using Chrome to go to BLACKED.com

>>60798915
It's not about using Chrome. It's about having a much easier time to configure shit

>>60798902
xD muh maymays lole

good 1

>>60798780
I ain't istening to no dam CIA nigger

>>60798915
>It stops becoming a server
I use it to ease administration when I'm nearby. The client computers on my network never know there's a GUI, so what's the problem?

>>60798961
>>60798915
What about just installing a window manager rather than a full blown DE?

>>60798946
Just kill yourself already. I bet you think you're special on this board.

>>60798936
>>60798961
It's not easier though. It's exactly the same since you can use SFTP to navigate in file managers like Dolphin and edit with any GUI text editor like Kate if you're too stupid/lazy to cd

>>60798972
Same difference.

>>60798980
We're all special, friend.

>>60798997
>It's not easier though.
Yes it is. I hop over to the server and bring up my logs and bandwidth and all that shit on one screen. It's quick and easier than open up a screen for every aspect I want to see.

>http
And the internet is still a fucking joke.

>on main computer
>type logsGet in tty

Or
>in web browser
>navigate to 192.168.0.38/logs.html
>shows detailed tables of log/bandwidth information
Would only take 5 minutes to make it too.

>>60799132
Sure, but who really cares? I'm using barely any resources on a really busy day. It's not like I'm running a corporation from it.

putty

>>60799213
>argues it's easier to have DE on a home server
>gets proven wrong
>doesn't care

lole

You could even make it so all you do is type log.me in a browser and with dnsmasq rules it will redirect you to the server logs.

# pacman -S dnsmasq
# vi /etc/dnsmasq.d/log.me
# address=/log.me/192.168.0.38
# :wq

woah hard

>>60799255
I never said your option was any easier or better. I've maintained my server from my phone while taking a shit, it's all about when and where and why. It makes life easier under certain conditions and I have the resources to do it, so I do. Who cares?

>>60799476
Because it's pointless and actually more difficult in the long run. The more automated it becomes the more time you'll have for other projects. Time is money, friend.

>>60799496
It's a fucking file server, retard. It does really mundane shit and rarely needs to be bothered with. Sometimes I just want to look to see if theres anything weird going on. I'm going to install KDE right now, just to piss you off,you fucking tripfag autist.

>>60799547
I love KDE. Why would that piss me off?

>>60799557
Good, now shut the fuck up.

>>60799585
Did my superior intelligence trigger you?

>>60799591
I think it was your autism, desu.

>>60799631
At least you're not Clover Femanon

>>60799557
Do you love KDE more than GNOME?

>>60799649
A lot more.

>>60799669
Thank you, I'll install Gnome.

>>60799717
What if I knew you'd say that and purposefully claimed to like KDE more so you'd install GNOME; my real preference?

>>60799729
You aren't that quick.

>>60799746
A lot quicker than you, except in regards to having sex. I pleasure my women, whereas you struggle to maintain an erection.

>>60799746
Underrated.

>>60799771
You're not even a femanon. We all know you're a guy.

>>60799771
Remember that time I gave you pleasure? I'm still spitting out pubes!

>>60799817

>>60799829
Lul.
