Old thread: >>6606842
hello friends, how has your day been
Avant garde desktop coming through
>>6610054
Nice borders and background color
qt
>>6610056
don't like the bar colors and you can't read the fonts
Please rate :)
Also, thanks guys for all the help in the other thread :)
Workin' on new YouTube CSS.
>>6610054
Nice wall, it's been great how has yours been?
>>6610055
174 days around the sun.
I don't know why I like that unhelpful measurement of time so much.
>>6610056
Alright bar, but what the other anon said can barely read it.
>>6610059
That post last thread with all your links etc, feel bad yo, anon(s) a dick.
I'd change to Firefox so you can theme it more, and make the bar not transparent.

Gr8 desktop.
>>6610078
Eh, he linked a lot of old outdated stuff anyway, although one of them did link to my skype (the twitter one), so I ended up deleting my skype account. And he also used a pretty old photo of me. It was pretty weird though, I wasn't a fan. And I prefer chrome for its ease of use and it works better with YouTube and Netflix (Netflix doesn't work at all on Firefox on Linux), and what do you mean the bar not transparent? The top bar? I prefer it transparent compared to the weird black.
>>6610082
Without a titlebar? Are you suggesting I move to a WM like i3? Cause I've used i3 before, but I prefer normal window managers that work with a desktop environment. Just personal preference.
Thanks for the advice guys! :)
>>6610082
I also removed the trash icon, and I gotta say, it looks much better without it.
>>6610083
>move to a WM like i3
well, almost anything would be better than using unity, so yes...
my suggestion is to drop the DE entirely, but i understand not everyone wants to do that. openbox is fairly "normal," in that it has floating windows, snapping, etc
>>6610087
I like Unity though, but that's just personal preference. I used to use i3 and I could never get into openbox. Really all just personal preference.
>>6610083
i3 would work fine with a real DE, Unity simply relies on compiz so you have to use compiz if you use unity
>>6610099
I have no idea how to do gaps though lol
>>6610100
Why would you want them? They're literally just a waste of your work area
>>6610102
tiling without gaps is ugly af
>>6610102
gaps are needed so you can see your qt anime wallpaper
>>6610105
Or your qt blurred wallpaper
>>6610107
why would you want to blur out the anime qts
>>6610108
No, this qt blurred wallpaper
>>6610109
i don't see any qts?
>>6610110
It's the pape itself anon
>>6610111
i must be missing something i still don't see it
>>6610111
thats def. not qt
>>6610112
What is a qt wallpaper to you? To me, a qt wallpaper is one that looks good.
>>6610114
>>6610114
qts are qt anime girls you baka

Oh, sorry.

just got a new computer today. advice/commentary appreciated.
Tried to build a lightweight system, still uses over 100MB of RAM, fug. Maybe the /fglt/ lads have some tips.
Here´s mine
>>6610334
Old as fuck Laptop running Arch, not sure how I pulled it off that it uses this few RAM.
>>6610336
>shit not aligned properly
ARGH, DELETE THIS
>>6610338
Fixed it?
>>6610343
are you fucking blind?
>>6610345
No just new to this.
Plus hard to see shapes.
>>6610334
>>6610343
You didn't, the honeycomb icons are still off center. I can see why your wife left you.
>>6610347
>>6610347
throw in some of that blue, purple, and red I see in there, mix it up
>>6610349
saved
>>6610350
Do you mean in the screenfetch? Not sure how to do that other than updating source directly.
>>6610078
Whats that you're editing the CSS in?
>>6610078
Why don't you just do
* {
border: none !Important;
}
>>6610054
How do you make those borders?
>>6610346
Just put the honeycomb icons aligned with the middle of the raccoon's head, or don't, it's your rice anon
any suggestions?
>>6610619
Pass to real distro x)
>>6610451
it's a visual style i made in 5 seconds
>>6610319
What did you get?
I've been looking for a super similar wallpaper, but in red. My system and mouse and keyboard are red, so I'd like to change it all up to match haha. Not a big fan of Avengers or anything, just like the setup.
>>6610724

Term colors are probably going to change to fit the rest of the rice.

>>6610729
No, my 4chan CSS was broken for some reason (Just some color stuff)
>>6610728
I think that was flames you replied to, lol
Also, nice hal colors
Hey guys, noob question here, but how does one go about to creating their own 4chan css?

Wassup? Good 'lol' or bad 'lol'? This is my first time posting my desktop here and would like an honest in depth analysis of it.
>>6610755
I mean, it doesn't have to be IN DEPTH. But an opinion would be greeeeeat.

Step 1: Go camping.
Step 2: Take photo of tent in forest in the South of France
Step 3: Come home.
Step 4: Install arch or linux distro of choice.
Step 5: Install wm etc
Step 6: Move image from camera to computer.
Step 7: Create colours from image.
Steap 8: Alter config files to suit your needs.

I've installed gentoo in a VM before, but the main reason I chose ubuntu was so I didn't have to risk deleting EUFI partition and bricking my system.
I ended up switching back to Mint after trying Arch. I prefer the stability and ease of use. But I do miss AUR.

>>6610054
Dude, I really want to know either where I can download that or how you did that.
>hurr durr just look up themes
but that when I saw that was windows I need it.
How do you guys deal with having so many little windows open all the time, doesn't it get overwhelming? I usually have one window open at a time fullscreen because my 1080p monitor doesn't seem big enough to fit 4 different windows at once
>>6611285
I switch between tiling & monocle mode in my WM quite often depending on what I'm working on.
>>6611285
>fullscreening anything other than anime
lol
>>6611292
Nice dude!

I'm currently on a ThinkPad W530 (maxed out refurbished) and replaced the HDD with a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD and fell for the 16GiB RAM meme, and replaced the DVD drive with a caddie holding the 7200 RPM 750GB HDD that the laptop originally came with for a backup/storage drive.
>>6611294
no one cares kevin
>>6611282
>install dark visual style
>use cygwin
it's simple anon
>>6611294
I just came from an x220. I really loved the keyboard, but there were a bunch of hardware issues associated with being 5 years old and used.
I use a w530 for work though, they're pretty great. Although, some times it seems like it's too high resolution.
>>6611294
sounds like a laptop that someone who fakes using gentoo would use
>>6611294
>tfw w530 is too big for my GOP frontrunner-sized hands
why live
>>6611297
It's only 1080p on a 15.6 inch display, it's not that high res. And I love the chicklet keyboard on it, it has good key travel for a chicklet.
>>6611302
Okay just checked, it's actually a W541, 2880 x 1620 display.
>>6611298
What are you talking about?
>>6610830
>Step 1: Go camping.
>Step 2: Take photo of tent in forest in the South of France
Nice.
>>6611065
Thanks a lot anon! I saw this on Deviantart, I'd change the taskbar color and remove the visualizer, and get the temps working, think it's configured to OpenHardwareMonitor if I remember correctly.
https://userstyles.org/styles/126711/deviantart-theme
>>6611305
The W541 costs like 1800 dollars on Amazon whereas my more than capable W530 only cost 620 dollars. And yeah, that screen resolution seems a bit too high, but I'm sure it still looks nice.
>>6611301
Our future president has above average sized hands, and I can assure you, everything is fine down there too.
>>6611296
sorry anon I'm just really new to this stuff and ive never used cygwin, let alone a whole linux os. would you mind helping me out a bit just to get me started or would that be too much? by dark visual style, do you mean for cygwin?
>>6611316
Cygwin is a software that lets you run Linux programs compiled for Windows.
Any news on theming Mac OS X? The OP has a guide up to Lion, and we're a few years past that version.
>>6611325
you can't rice os x
>>6611325
You pretty much have to ask macfags about what to do, and there is only 1 or 2 of them (They rarely post) around.
>>6611328
Yeah, I guess that's what I'm doing. Calling all Mac Fags.
>>6611322
so its more built for using linux programs and coding rather than just aesthetics?
>>6611367
No point in using Cygwin if I were you.
>>6610941
that was my original desktop, pls do not steal.
>>6611418
I wish the chrome icon was flatter, other than that, looks pretty good.
>>6611285
Are you on windows? Did you know you can stack your windows right on top of each other? Did you also know that depending on the row position of your file explorer, you can use winkey + any number not on numpad to cycle between open file explorer windows?
>>6611412
fuck off, I've had this setup for years. fucking tripfags attention whoring again...
>>6610059
Can you share the code of your homepage? Im working in something similar.

>>6611068
I tried it to see if the amdgpu drivers would work properly. My computer used to just restart randomly.
>>6611582
Did you check the logs?
Thinking of changing a few fonts.
Other than that I think I'll be happy enough to stop ricing and just change wallpapers/colors once in a while. Gotta concentrate on actually getting stuff done.
>>6611665
The list I would have to go through would just be too long. Am I supposed to remember the exact time it restarts? What would I even be looking for? I'm not a computer scientist I wouldn't know what the fuck to do with log information.
>>6611668
Are you using bblean or something like that?
>>6611538
Because setting up desktops are a work of art you wouldn't want someone else taking credit for.
>>6610728
what chat client is that?
Why do you guys use Appchan X over 4chan X?
>>6610319

Do you like my music? Is it a fitting taste level for me?

I prefer Chrome as it has better video playback, and it is able to play Netflix.

Hi guys, I just got a trash desktop all-in-one from work, and it barely runs Windows 10. I thought I might set it up with some linux distro or some silly billy thing like that. What do you guys use for a nice, clean rice? Something I can probably learn over the weekend/week, and might let me browse normie stuff like reddit and Facebook?
I swear I'm not trolling or baiting. I just want at least a vague pointer.
>>6612202
>>6612203
Thanks Kevin. So I go with something that uses KDE? The guide in OP recommends Arch, Debian and Gentoo. It also goes on a great tirade about how Arch is actually really unnecessarily hard to learn, so ... do I go with Debian then? I'm seeing you use Ubuntu.
>>6612203
this isn't even close to what he asked baka
>>6612202
post specs
>>6612207
Sure.
It's got an Intel i3-2100 4-Core CPU @3.1GHz
4GB RAM.
I think it's this one:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=440958
>>6612209
I think it can handle every DE out there. I'd recommend a basic Debian install and then picking the DE of your choice. Some have touchscreen support, maybe look out for one.
>>6612212
oh, this thing isn't a touchscreen sadly. But I'll try putting Debian in it! Thanks anon. :) You're a good pal.

Who's the moron who labeled that graph? It's completely fucking wrong, and I've seen it around here like 3 times already. That graph shows memory comparison between WM/DEs. No clue how people extrapolated all that other bullshit from that.

Is gentoo a /g/ meme or is it actually a good distro?
Currently I'm on arch and I'm thinking of wiping and starting over on gentoo, is this a good idea?
>>6612602
are you not satisfied with arch?
>>6612603
No I am. it's good and was a great learning experience installing it.
The first reason I want to change is that I fucked up the partitions on the install and I realised this quite a while after I installed. So I reckon this would be a good opportunity to start over - so why not a new distro?
Second reason is that I want to get into other distros other than arch (idk, I'm curious I suppose).
Third reason is that RMS is our lord and saviour - anything he creates must be used by everyone.
>>6612607
That third one was a joke. RMS didn't create gentoo.
>>6612602
Linux itself is a meme, it doesn't matter what you're using.
