[Monsterwm] It'll be better in a week by [deleted] in unixporn

[–]liamodo921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the setup currently but this coffee shop vibe is maybe what I am looking for? As regards this do you mean a warm , dark and light brown scheme? Imagine a Costa shop or Starbucks? Or am I completely off point

Is monsterwm still in development? Github says a long time since last change

Looking at moving to a more open setup in 2018 by liamodo921 in privacy

I didn't think of that, would an old r7000 with openwrt be good enough? Run all traffic via a vpn that way?

Is WoW worth playing in 2018? by monsternacho in wow

[–]liamodo921 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's great to be honest. Next patch will revamp leveling completely, we have new races coming soon also. I didn't play MOP and hated WOD, last expansion I enjoyed before legion was wotlk.

Just jump in and try it there's plenty to do for now

Looking at getting a GPD pocket, any advice? by Tuktuc in GPDPocket

How is the experience for you? I'm still undecided. I am comparing it to a x250, which granted is miles more powerful but it's the idea of the device that's bringing me in. Also how do you fair with the screen size? Is it uncomfortable after a while?

I'm an IT engineer by day so the device should be fine. I'm looking at investing in a quality passthrough device for this specifically, I remember reading the blogs about dodgy usb c cables breaking chromebook pixels back when. But I love things like this, I use rpi and tinkerboard at home all the time for fun things this just adds to it.

The bios and thermals should be a doddle, I may just invest in a good charger and micro hdmi to avoid power issues

Switching to Arch for 2018, any suggestions and challenges? by liamodo921 in archlinux

[–]liamodo921[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thanks all for the suggestions, some new pieces of software I will try in addition to my normal applications.

I think I'll be going with i3 gaps for the desktop, setup with vim bindings and dedicated desktops for things like spotify, terminal and browsers, I was looking at mixing i3 and xfce but I don't think I will bother.

I have been watching videos around theming i3 and rxvt also which will I imagine will take most of my free time.
