A solid, accessible guide for different desktop environments and window mangers is something that’s been needed for a long time. Or even just some kinda step by step to recreate an example setup would be super helpful to new folks and could help grow the community.
I think that’d be a plus given the migration to lemmy split things up and shrank the number of contributers here vs reddit.
I had never heard of nova os before- thanks for sharing!
Thats a nice wallpaper, I like the colors
Lol, syrup would definitely be fun
I like toast honestly
Or the sweet ass cyberdecks people build
I kinda thought this conversation would eventually happen. I have mixed feelings on the subject but am generally inclined not to use the term myself as I find it distasteful. But I think there’s an important consideration for those who’d like to discontinue the term rice in this community: what language would we like to use instead? Specifically a good noun for referring to a given setup we’ve made. In therapy they teach you that stopping a behavior is a very hard thing to accomplish, and that instead you should always try to replace a behavior- I believe that idea is very relevant here
I’d be curious to hear people’s thoughts on what they’d like to use instead
I don’t know the answer, but I will engage with the post so that hopefully someone who does will see it :)
Unix is a specific operating system, and there are a lot of operating systems based on it or derived from it (Linux, MacOS, BSD, and both Android and ChromeOS which are based on the linux kernel)
Here’s a handy link to the Wikipedia page for unix. You may find the intro & history sections more useful than the stuff about what Unix is from a technical perspective, or how it works.
This may be sacrilege, but I don’t mind seeing someone’s Windows customizations here, though its not what the community is intended for
I appreciate you mentioning that, thats how I’m considering using the 5 if it ends up as my phone replacement, but I have a hard time interpreting the info around wireless frequency bandwidths supported 🙃 I like pretty user interfaces, networking hurts my brain
