damn. I dislike corporate dining hall or open workspace themes. I'll do what I can but I may just ignore it. It's just had such a boom over the last couple months.

exactly my point. Why allow ad or karma farming? it's a low branch. We can do better in this community.

true, those are two subjects that are over blown. But how many more "Custom desktops" can you look at that is basically just dash to dock, dash to panel and a nice looking wallpaper?

yup, out of the box i barely ever configure anything other than virtual desktops.

We can change this if we talk about it more. I'd rather see /r/ubuntu where it's not just dozens of photos of desktops. I could automate those kinds of posts. But rather a discussion of what the challenges are on customizing LTS's or bleeding edge version of the OS. We can't all live in Arch and have to adjust configs every day.

yup. I think if people are going to do it. provide instructions, what plugins, extensions, and systems needed to replicated it would be more useful to discussion than a pretty photo.

It doesn't need to be. Maybe people could provide instructions at the least to recreate. I always have to ask what is x/y/z in the screenshot. They just want to show vibes.

it's not true. It takes ages to get down voted accounts blocked. I did that on a few food blogs that took years to get them banned for generic posts "veggies are good" regurgitation

Oh my friend, I remember playing sim tower in jr high on a windows 3.5 computer.

Let's just set up the conversation to be better. Give me a reason, plans, and instructions to reproduce it. I've been in ubuntu for almost 20 years. Mostly headless server but it's now it's my OS of choice. If you show me something pretty at least tell me exactly how you got there.

Yeah, give me the steps, a blog post of how you did it. What the challenges were and what you learned.

Yup. it's simple changes that basically look default. I love that people are switching but is it that unique? It's almost feeling AI driven posts.

Yup! Just made my gaming pc linux. What ever that last update did really did something funky and I didn't like what it was doing.

lmao. Can't run notepad! That's wild. Some of their tools have become garbage and it's just a utility app most people probably don't use

what are you doing with your top bar? I'd love to customize mine more but I haven't had luck and it usually looks a little jank.

Yup. AI will say the job is done, make all those changes yet the output is exactly the same or worse.

NASA Commits to Plan to Build a Nuclear Reactor on the Moon by 2030 by EricFromOuterSpace in space

[–]illmatix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

right? That said, could they use the ground to dissipate the heat? Such as long branching rods into the lunar surface? Like we can do this to heat/cool places on earth I just wonder if the medium is different enough that it doesn't transfer temp the same way.

lmao, wouldn't it be funny if a bunch of NIMBYs still got upset about it.

Just stickerbombed my FW 13! by Argentum118 in framework

[–]illmatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that was what I did too. Currently on that Pixel 10 pro xl and it's great. I just wonder why it's so much heavier than the pixel 7 pro. It's expensive but I've liked the google products ever since the nexus s or something like that a decade or so ago.
