>>2215565It's an old as hell download, but by any chance did any of you guys ever save Varzeki's rice? From https://github.com/Varzeki/RiceLike a dumbass I never saved it and now that I actually wanted to check it out, turns out he nuked his github a while back. Would suck if it was lost forever.
>>2215565Seeing the desktop that i posted being used posted by a different op is very funny to me, especially since i dont even use gnome and use kde now since gnome was irritating me.
>>2215565Fellow man of taste, I have that also. Love images that show scale
just got into linux last week, i still have to learn how to use a tiling wm.also does anyone ever got a custom new tab on Firefox to work? I've used that script on github but it still doesn't work, decided to settled with vivaldi.
>>2215565
>>2216017posted in the previous thread too but where do people download their music from?? All the stuff I've used almost never has any metadata on the tracks. Do you just write the metadata yourself or wat? Help a retard out
>>2216019soulseek + musicbrainz picardI use spotify though personnaly
>>2216019I usually buy them either from Bandcamp, Torrenting, or Beatport, but I usually look on discogs for making the Metadata for the files and such, foobar is good for it as well.
>>2216019YouTube Music provides 128k opus, which should be enough. For metadata use the --add-metadata option with yt-dlp.

hey im new here but what are those windows with text or how do you get to customize the pc this way? i only have animated and still wapapers how you get thing s like these?>>2216154>>2216106>>2215925>>2215589
>>2216175Not him, but thank you!
>>2216320tnx(?)
>>2216320How can I get this? It's awesome btw
>>2216253i have no idea what os are you using hut I'd assume you're using windows? the text thing is called terminal, similar to what command prompt/powershell is on windows. they're displaying a program called neofetch, often used to show the info of your system and customization like what theme are you using, what linux distro you're using, your window manager/DE etc. you can also get it on windows.you can modify your windows in a lot of ways, you can change your theme, icon packs, the taskbar, how some certain application looks and a lot more. here's a guide to get you up to speed into windows customization or as people usually call it, ricing https://www.ricing.chloechantelle.com/however as you can see that even something as simple as changing your theme required some "hacks" because windows does not natively support it and there's always a chance that it'll break after a windows feature update. the scene for windows ricing is also relatively small (and some of them locked their stuff behind a paywall) so the amount of customization you can do is not that much compared to say, linux.most of the desktop that's posted here are based on linux, it offers the level of customization that windows simply doesn't. you can change almost everything about it, don't like your current desktop environment? you can change it. you like your current DE but you hate the file manager or any apps that it comes bundled with? you can change it, even with apps from another DE. the scene for custom theme and icons are also pretty huge compared to windows and making your own is actually not that hard. for starters, if you really wanna go deep into it you can immediately jump to a distro like arch, but for a better out of the box experience I'd recommend distro like Pop! OS, endeavourOS or linux mint (anything but manjaro). and you can start figuring stuff out by yourself, there are tons of guide for linux ricing on the internet.

>>2215568which filemanager is that anon? It was a long time ago since I've used a terminal centric setup (in those times ranger w/ w3m I think was capable of doing some pics in terminal, dunno about nnn)
>>2217767??? pop arch?
>>2216425beautiful
>>2217769I just changed the neofetch config file. I used the arch logo because it was the only good looking one.. I will change it in the future if I get a better looking logo :p

im new with pop_os so this looks pretty shit compared to everyone else's.
>>2218300thanks!
>>2218323what font
>>2218381Courier New
>>2218309Assuming you haven't had experience so far here are my recommendations that have worked with Pop OS for me so far.Install Alacritty, Dash to Panel (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1160/dash-to-panel/), active hot corner, Tile windows, uncheck window Titles and get used to it. Some minimalist and fast programs I recommend are; qView for viewing images, Zathura for documents like PDF etc and MPV Player for videos.
Anyone out there knows cool gtk3/4 themes with a late 90's/early 2000's look and feel? Not exactly based on older OS's, could be something cyberpunk themed, like Lain
>>2217749Looks like ranger
im thinking of using a dock, or some other thing on the bottom of the screen with shortcuts to current projects, useful scripts, etc. What's a good dock/bar for this? I could do it all in polybar, but something a bit more dedicated would be preferable
>>2218851>>2217191roffle didn't realise I had posted here before, as you can tell I don't come to this corner of the site often>>2218193create a .txt file with your ascii artwork in it (reccomended no more than 25 lines long or else it's too big), then in your neofetch config you edit this line:[code]image_source=/home/user/.neofetch.txt[/code]
Is this a /g/ thread or a /w/ thread?

>>2216863Very well executed minimal setup. Looks great.>>2216169Colors look good>>2215925Everything ties together really nice, looks comfy>>2215816Makes me reconsider some of my own KDE setup, I like it.>>2215612NiceI've posted before in /g/. Wallpapers are on a slideshow.Nothing too fancy, may try using a tiling WM at some point, not sure if it'll be a good fit for me though.>boomer still uses Conky
>>2219452tiling wm is great, try it. it can be intimidating to get into and there are a lot of things to configure if the idea of a DE + tiling WM doesn't sound appealing to you. but it's worth it, i just moved from XFCE + bspwm setup to a more typical bspwm + polybar + rofi and it's been a great experience so far. configuring it was a pain in the ass though.
>>2218855/g/>>2219450>idk how to spice it uptry removing transparency
Running KDE right now, am gonna move to a WM sooner or later. Any suggestions that are easy?
>>2218229android pc what? what OS is this and why does it look almost identical to windows
>>2219586awesomewm is known for being easy to configure and use, but i personally wouldn't recommend it. you can use a tiling wm with your desktop environment, just stop the window manager that your DE use (kwindowmanager for KDE) and auto start your window manager of choice. you'll still have to configure it but you can just download and use some random dotfiles from github. i3 is great but i wouldn't recommend it for use with DE, bspwm is better for that. if you want to just use window manager without DE though, go with whichever looks more appealing to you
>>2215565please share background thx
>>2219586do not use transparency ever
>>2219665
>>2219665>>2219731
>>2218238Very cool! For some reason the wallpaper, the taskbar, the music player, the widgets and everything on this image gives me this weirdly nostalgic and almost bittersweet feeling.

>>2219776Chad anal cunt enjoyer.
First time using Linux. Started like a month ago and I'm quite liking it.
>>2220233Once you get into a tiling vm anything else will feel like shit, good choice. Skip the transparency though, makes you look gay as fuck
>>2220235Yeah, now that I've been playing around with keybinds for like a month and getting them just how I like them, I found it hard to use a uni computer with windows...I also only have the transparency for terminal so that I can setup neovim and cbonsai and stuff for screenies
>>2218078Not the OP and not sure if you still need it but here you go
>>2217724Can I borrow that wallpaper?
>>2220282A simple yandex search will give it to you, you fucking pape beggars are cancer
>>2215565I'm in the middle of retooling mine.So far its just a straight suite (in this case NXT-0S) but I hated the way the center clock looked with music player running so I have Modular Player on to the side.If I can figure out how to make the game scrolling bar smaller then I will.I'm thinking of making my own skin and layout again from scratch again but the desire to do anything is crap.

First time posting in over 6 years.
>>2215770there's one snapshot on archive.org and it isn't a 404 page
>>2220808Unfortunately, those snapshots didn't get any of the download links, or the files.He used to be a pretty big name here and on /g/ a long time ago, I'm surprised nobody saved it. Or why he deleted it specifically for that matter, since his other stuff is still on his github page.
I usually don't post but I recently got into linux after being inspired by you guys. I'm enjoying the journey so far.Rate my rice, anything I can add or remove to improve it?
>>2220844Looks decent as fuck honestly, you went with i3 and that was a great move
>>2220771it's just a standard date and a standard digital clock widget for manjaro with calvin and hobbes font I found on the internet.
>>2220850Thanks, man, I was using KDE Plasma for a while to get used to the terminal and linux in general, but swapping to just a wm is so much better.Looking forward to sharing more rices in the future, this was a lotta fun.

Linux dudes, what's a good audio player to get if I want it to both look pretty and have good playlist support? I think I used ncmpcpp on my old install.
What do y'all use for managing keybinds outside of a DE? >>2221095I recommend Qmmp. You can use any WinAmp skin or a Qt interface.
Oops I forgot to include my screenshot!

>>2221089what's your bar
>>2219554Genuinely interested in the pape story, do you have the rest?
>>2221456It's been around for ages and is very easy to find..
>>2221456ah, it's not a part of the pape, it's my browser. if any of you anons are confused on how to rice your browser, i would recommend going UI-less. not sure if it's possible on firefox, but it's possible with some css mods on vivaldi.as for the story, it's originally a 2ch thread: https://vgperson.com/posts.php?p=simplejoband later rewritten: https://vgperson.com/posts.php?p=simplejobrewriteand got an incomplete manga adaptation: https://vgperson.com/other/mangaviewer.php?m=2it's a decent story, great idea, not so good execution. still a good read nonetheless.

>>2220635I recomend using pic rel, windows 10 store is cringe but it would make your think look better, you can make it 100% clear, frosted or blured. I think you can do that in windows 10 settings if you have activated windows (I don't)
>>2223273hahaha almost forgot
>>2215565Pretty basic,but it just werks.
>>2223281Looks really nice
>>2215925am i just slow that i cant do stuff like this after months of usage?
>>2223274I tried that app but didn't like the full-clear or blurry options, so I ended up using built-in registry option to enable OLED transparency for the taskbar. Makes it close to like about 60-70% transparent, still much better than the stock system transparency level
>>2223327Wait, OLED transparency?
>>2223327>up using built-in registry option to enable OLED transparency for the taskbarI have no idea what that is, fortunately the frosted effect works great with my background.Also if anyone is interested on how I changed my background without activating windows, when you first install windows 10, don't be connected to wifi at all, and until you connect to wifi, the OS recognises it as activated. You can change your wallpaper (you will need a usb or another disk to import the image without wifi) and all the other personalisations, however once you connect you can't change it.
>>2223330>>2223333if you search useoledtaskbartransparency you can find some sites that walk you through adding the value to registry and its value field, and then log off/log on to take effect.i did this in w10. i don't have w11 so i can't confirm if it works in w11.i personally didn't like fully clear or acrylic-style blurry clear for most wallpapers
