Desktop thread

Old one is gone with /tech/. You know what to do.

>>81 This is great! Please could you post the background? What's the picture on the right from?

>>82 same, i want you wallpaper

>>81 i want your wallpaper!

Unsure of where to go next with ricing beyond changing up a bunch of my settings, so consider this a work in progress.

>>83 >>84 Here you go >>82 Thanks! Picture on the right is from the game Mix Ore made in RPG maker.

Want to see about building a firefox theme in the future. Otherwise, I'm pretty content with the setup.

keep it relatively simple, stupid

Plain ol' Xfce. I like minimalism.

been messing with my dotfiles a lot lately not sure why that's causing some X issues on my external monitor (see: weird issues with comp manager underneath newsbeuter; inexplicable lack of icons for some i3blocks) startpage directly inspired by OP's startpage in ancient thread op, out of curiosity, what is the font you use for that site?

>>91 lol@your open tabs >"how do i join anonymous" >"how to download hacking software" >"why is 4chan mean" >"benefits of systemd"

>>92 >download hacking scripts thank you, i do fancy myself a l33t h4x0r

>>91 I remember some thread with very similar homepage. My font is old game fatty. And yeah, nice tabs lain.

I like my current setup. Its clean and simple >>81 cyberpunk/10

>>95 Goddamn, what IRC client is this? It's terminal-based, I assume? You made it look gorgeous.

>>96 >>95 lol I spoke too soon, it says so right there. Weechat. Oops.

>>95 New to ricing, so sorry for such a simple question, but: How do I get i3wm to have those gaps? Many people say i3-gaps, but I seen many desktops that just use i3 to achieve the same effect.

>>98 >but I seen many desktops that just use i3 to achieve the same effect. it's probably i3-gaps which shows up as i3 in screenfetch or whatever cool kids use these days to show up their desktops

>>98 i3-gaps is a popular take on i3, but some other wms have gaps out of the box. I use Herbstluftwm and its super comfy

>>98 If they are using i3 and still having gaps, they are most probably using floating windows

anyone else /diy/ their wallpaper?

>>103 yes, >>91 is wallpaper'd with one of my most recent forays into glitch art.

another day wasted

Running on windows bash via xming over tcp, no less.

just i3 on arch and eilanya wallpaper i've had forever.

>>105 This is great. What is your firefox theme?

>>108 just a modified version of this http://twily.info/firefox/stylish/firefox-css#view

>>81 My desktop is just solid black with a mostly stock i3status at the bottom. Terminal is also using the stock colors reversed.

>>91 made some changes to general i3 config, switched comp manager, culled unnecessary parts from i3blocks, new wallpaper. also uploaded a ton of media locally from my media server >lol at htop >lol at temperature had just been playing a million yt videos

New wallpaper i've made myself and new colors. >>109 Oh. I'm already using it. I guess i also should change it a little more. By the way what about url bar? You don't use or have a hotkey for it?

I've had this setup for a while, going to change things up sometime soon. I recently got a new laptop and have a config from scratch on there I'm pretty pleased with. It's very minimal and aimed at work rather than looking pretty; but I'll post it here later.

>>112 I use vimperator addon. It's basically vim for firefox

>>113 Here's that laptop one. Not much rice though; it's a minimal, 'working' setup ;)

>>112 Kuzu honkai was a great show. Nice taste lain!

don't hate me

>>117 Wallpaper please? That looks nice.

>>118

>>87 can you share the wallpaper please?

guess I'll post as well. I'm not too big a ricer, my first goal is always functionality, as I do spend a lot of time on my system. currently the only thing bothering me is my wallpaper. it sort of fits, but not as well as I'd like it to. suggestions welcome!

>>126 Not exactly hi-res

Got set up on funtoo once again. Haven't done much other than restore my old .Xresources, .bashrc, i3/config and a few others. Also MoC is awesome, works better than foobar2000 for me because I can more easily play music based on file structure. I didn't realize until I tried foobar again. Also, currently running the debian kernel but fear not for I have my old fully custom kernelconf backed up in case I need support for a controller and proprietary drivers.

Guys let's make this a 'Rice general'. Also let's follow the new rules that say that you should at least superficially comment on your own rice. Anyways, pic related is mine. It is current Debian Testing with i3wm. I also installed LXDE on it just to have a display manager and accompanying tools. In the upper right corner you can see NetworkManager because it's what I am most comfy with. Here's my i3conf: https://pastebin.com/byej3S2N Tell me if you want i3status conf or the scripts used in my i3conf.

>>136 Personally, I'd prefer to stay away from the /x general/ meme, as a rule of thumb. I do, however, like the idea of a more active discussion about ricing - i.e., a dotfiles thread that is more about sharing your custom confit files. If you make the thread, I'd definitely share some files. As an aside, when someone on IRC suggested a dual desktop/battlestation thread, applebro expressed his preference for the two to be separate.

my laptop :)

Am I cool nao?

>>166 I really like this, reminds me of myself when I was moonlighting icewm. Good mix of oldskool and comfy. t. >>132

>>141 >a dotfiles thread that is more about sharing your custom config files A thousand times this. As someone new to ricing and still trying to set up i3wm, this would be of great use.

>>168 I think git.lain or a similar service would be ideal for that tbh, but general advice etc. is good to have in threads like these. The actual technical documents should go somewhere else I think.

>>166 Can I get that wallpaper?

simple i3 setup

>>172 Superb! Has a really nice feel to it, mind telling what the statusbar and weather app is?

>>173 the status bar is just i3status with some tweaks and extras firstly get py3status installed: https://github.com/ultrabug/py3status the weather "app" is a py3status module called weather_yahoo: https://py3status.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules.html#weather-yahoo i set i3status to use font awesome which is where the icons are from. i just copied the appropriate icons from their site in to my i3status.conf: http://fontawesome.io/

>>171 Of course.

tfw broadwell graphics not supported and have to fall back to scfb

>>117 That spanish speaking lainanon. Hola Lain.

New wallpaper and colours to go with it. I'm probably going to redo the layout on my status bar though, and tweak the colours slightly for some more contrast. I was playing with the font from Tsukichan but couldn't get it looking nice and readable.

>>179 can you provide a link to the wallpaper pls ?

>>179 hey look, we're wallpaper bros. would love to see your vimrc. >>181 attach'd

p much the same as it was in these i might do something new soon but pretty happy with how this setup has treated me

EXWM with darktooth theme + other configuration odds and ends. It's not perfect but it satiates me atm. Live the dream of the Emacs machine, y'all.

>>183 It's actually just spf13-vim currently, with the ir_black colour scheme (just based around my term colours that way). My other laptop (>>115) is a fresh install and I'll be setting up vim from scratch on that probably next week. Will post an update to my vimrc there if there's interest.

Hi.

Here's mine >>129 Looks good. Rather than changing the wallpaper, you could make your applications have a similar color scheme to the wallpaper, like make conky have a more muted palette idk

>>189 whats the first image from? imgOps isnt working and i tried downloading and reverse image searching but get no results.

>>209 Fellow gentooman here, you have a very nice setup! Mind sharing the wallpaper?

>>116 Yeah, I love Hanabi a lot >>129 It could be much better with other colors >>139 >>179 >>189 >>209 Pretty desktops. Like them all.

>>211

>>223 thanks, but im looking to find the artist and\or the anime it is a part of

>>217

>>250 delightfully minimal. >>198 i would be interested in seeing your .vimrc - i'll go ahead and make a dotfiles thread tomorrow if someone doesn't do it in the meantime.

>>81

>>635 Can i have that wallpaper? Rei is best girl.

>>636 soykaf, accidental sage
