You get two or three pics, most of them just looking like typical desktops with a naked woman as the wallpaper, and then the thread ends. Say what you will about the threads here, at least people experiment with more than just which porn-star they display on their work-computers.
>>107579911Just go to /wg/ then, it may be a bit desolate but there’s ricing at play there

Can anyone remember what we used to customize XP back in the day? I remember stuff like Crystal Clear & Bricopacks and shit, but that I think was the tail end of XP customization. I remember good Rainmeter-like software that I used, with themes being shared on Deviantart and such, the Bricopack thing if I remember correctly wasn't as good.

>>107582487Yes exactly! It’s also very good to use this font on every application so you can have a consistent style. I am glad you are saving precious screen real estate and protecting your eyes from straining!
How did Linux become so comfy bros ?
>>107582532The second part is for the terminal, not other applications. The letters being closer together makes it easier for my brain to faster recognize the word without actually having to "read" it, and just look at it. The issues of eye strain and horizontal space apply to the terminal, since that's where I do the most reading on my computer, and the awkward spacing of text in terminals, particularly one like alacritty, lends to more eye strain. It's the difference between instantly recognizing a line like "order+=cpu_temperature 0" and having to move your eyes at all to read it, so it's faster.
>>107582631I think it would be best if letters overlapped. Maybe even overlapping lines. Have you tried doing that?
>>107582672No. In the worst of cases, there's 0 pixels between the end of a tail and some part of another character. Icons overlap the characters, but that never stopped me from doing or reading anything. It's just a trade-off, and I don't like kitty and ghostty, in general, but in particular because of the way that their transparency turns explicitly black background colors in the terminal transparent, rather than just the things that don't have an explicit background color.
>>107582487This reminds me of those images of people bathing in a river filled with trash and dead bodies. Some humans are just clueless to the filth they surround themselves with; something must be broken in their mind.
>>107582755>In the worst of cases, there's 0 pixels between the end of a tail and some part of another character. Icons overlap the charactersI think that would be the best case! Can you show me? I don’t know how to do this on windwos >>107582767So jealous

I'm sure there's equivalents for troonix that can offer similar looks and flexibility, perhaps even more.

>>107584331>i bet you have a superiority complex with that "just werks" mindsetNo, but I work, for a living. With Autodesk and Adobe (that I use daily for my own ends also) among other things like tailor made smaller applications, and legacy software. And play Battlefield. I also have a lot of expensive audio gear (and other peripherals) that in some cases has no alternatives, mixers, loopers, interfaces, synths, none of which have, or will *ever* have drivers for Linux. Using Windows is non-negotiable, period. This little tirade is what many Linux users don't get ("why don't you use Linux, are you retarded? It can do anything!). No, Linux can't do everything, and GIMP is complete joke of a pile of shit and Blender is like a toy for the type of large scale work that I do. That being said, I'm not upgrading to W11.I hate Microsoft with passion, but Linux just isn't there yet. I've been waiting for it to be there since 1997 or 8 when I saw the first RedHat distro. Perhaps it will get there before I die, things are looking better than ever.And I'm just poking fun at the observation that the Linux users have a very visible, very vocal, and very gay community. Which I'm sure you can agree with.

>>107585443kek y so srs?
>>107585272and im in uni, a lot of your issues are purely supply and demand related, which is an ouroboros in case of the nux (no supply means no demand which means no supply therefore no demand and so on), that doesn’t mean that linux can’t do as much as windows, as it is no fault of the operating system that big companies don’t want to bother with an operating system which is a minority of the entire computer user basepart of the reason why the tux is growing more is because more people are taking risks and sacrifices, creating demand and therefore creating interest in providing supply.gay can mean happy as far as i know, and if the linux userbase is gay, what does that make everyone else? you fuckers are unhappy yet refuse to move out of the comfort zone, which is part of the struggle for a better, happier, free and open source future.
>>107585420how do you know if he didn’t? we are all anons here>>107585443your employment status doesn’t necessarily measure how right you are, in fact you are partially proving the superiority complex point i made, since you are using it to say “I’m better than you”

If Microsoft keeps shitting the bed, and in addition to enterprise, the gamers switch to Linux, dragging with them a portion of other normies, then we might see real progress. Somewhere around 20%-25% of marketshare maybe we can expect solid support and effort by corporations to cater to Linux users as the market demands it. Mac OS desktop marketshare is around 15%, and even in that case the peripherals which work with it are limited, or tied to an ecosystem.>>107585566>since you are using it to say “I’m better than you”No, it's your insecurities making you take offense where none was given and then lashing out.

That, and editing those products and my personal photos with Lightroom and Photoshop later. Right. Because Linux can. Are you being dense on purpose? I'm not going to get into bad faith arguing, for that you can try and b8 someone else.
>>107582197pape saar?
>>107585787THIS is correct. I have had jobs over the course of my ~25 years of GNU PLUS LINUX that I could not accomplish with said OS and had to utilize WINDOWS. It's easy to get tunnel vision, but when one is personally faced with use what tools you absolutely must in order to make a living, or go without making a living, shit suddenly gets REAL.
>>107585845>It's easy to get tunnel visionI should have including something like tunnel vision of one's idealistic paradigms, perhaps.
>>107585787the real problem is that you’re making a supply and demand problem sound like something that is inherent to the linux ecosystem in itself, my point was that linux plays no part in what app supports it or not and you are missing it, i in no way wish to deny that linux doesn’t have the very tools you miss at the current moment’s notice
>>107585897 (cont.)no shit it’s going to be difficult to establish a foothold when there are behemoths already dominating the market, that’s why people take risks and make sacrifices in terms of their stack and workflow, they’re fighting an uphill battle just so you get to enjoy whatever niche or otherwise industry standard thing on linux natively, without any of this wine proton bullshit
>>107585897>you’re making a supply and demand problem sound like something that is inherent to the linux ecosystem in itselfNo.And I'm not missing it, it's just of no use to me or anyone else in same position at the moment what so ever. You're splitting hairs and fucking periods and commas? Why do we have a failure to communicate here? Autism? (sincerely, not being an ass)>>107585919The DAY that the tools that I need for my work and hobbies run on Linux I'm off Windows forever. A 5ft kid is never going to dunk on a basketball court - he has some growing to do. The fact that it's impossible to do certain things on Linux today is not a personal attack against you, or a diss against Linux. That's how things stand at the moment. Just like Linux excels at things that Windows can't even hope to touch.
>>107585919 (cont. once more)and even then it is up to whatever developer is responsible for the drivers and software whether they will port it to linux or not, the least one can do is make them notice.your case demands an insane amount of sacrifice which would SINGLEHANDEDLY cripple your workflow to unimaginable degrees and i perfectly understand why you wish not to make it. moving to linux means measuring pros, cons, risks and sacrifices, how to adapt in such an environment, how to achieve the same result with alternative tools if any and will it even be worth it in the long term, and the answer to the last one is always yes. even successfully preaching the gospel of linux WITHOUT using it is a move that will benefit you as a future linux user because then more entities will consider linux as a worthy platform, therefore creating more demand with more supply, creating more opportunities to preach the gospel, and then you reach the point where you can finally switch to linux yourself with all (if not, most) of the tools you missed being available on linux, the key is playing the long game
