[00:24] @KMyers [00:24] Damn where is that? [00:24] dang, that sucks [00:24] Doh [00:24] But I like the epaper tags [00:25] is that the one you're getting? [00:25] It's all that's available [00:25] @RazPi look up the model on Amazon. They may price match it if available [00:26] And lower [00:30] I think it's just 2usd off actually [00:30] https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-860-evo-500gb-internal-sata-solid-state-drive-for-laptops/6178650.p?skuId=6178650&ref=212&loc=1&gclsrc=aw.ds&&ref=212&loc=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5KTD2uC-3wIV1FqGCh1ZAgWNEAQYASABEgJxt_D_BwE [00:31] Ok. That is a large coffee [00:32] Good point xD [04:57] If I feel like throwing together a home media box, hardware raid 5 advisable? [04:57] Or are there better solutions for redundancy? [04:58] Having just started thinking about it, something like freeNAS? [09:48] Or Nethserver [13:38] Hacker.cheap is available https://domains.google.com/m/registrar/search?searchTerm=hacker.cheap&hl=en&tab=1 [13:38] Hacker.social. That might be a good one for your tech sitek @KMyers [15:02] https://www.t-mobile.com/news/2019-predictions-legere-ceo [17:21] @KMyers @AdamOutler @Ivoriesablaze I think I found one or two new window managers to settle on [17:21] I think its time to revisit Metacity [17:21] https://cn.opendesktop.org/img//hive/content-pre1/13548-1.jpg [17:26] I prefer Explorer for the desktop [17:33] Windows Explorer? [17:33] Yes. [17:33] * AdamOutler hides [17:34] https://tr2.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/2012/03/12/5a310c87-c3a6-11e2-bc00-02911874f8c8/Slide22.PNG [17:34] It's true though. Linux is my favorite shell. But for applications requiring GUI, I'm a fan of Windows. [17:34] I won't lie, it's not easy to make the desktop experience as smooth as windows [17:34] Dos she'll sucks. [17:35] That's why I needed something like that Metacity project to make me interested enough to try and tweak it to where its suitable [17:35] I couldn't get excited about tweaking kde, budgie, or gnome [17:35] Also due to CUDA it looks like I"m stuck with Ubuntu 18.04, so I'm going to attempt installing that today [17:35] When they removed wobbly windows from Ubuntu, I lost interest. [17:35] Wobbly windows was the bestm [17:36] I can't believe compiz died off [17:36] Last update was 2 years ago [17:36] I will say though that KDE's compositor caused me a bit of screen tearing in netflix, chrome, and in general [17:37] Barely noticeable but still noticeable, so I'm wary of compositors atm [17:41] !!!! [17:41] @AdamOutler It looks like compiz is still getting development [17:41] https://gitlab.com/compiz/compiz-core [17:41] https://github.com/compiz-reloaded [17:44] You can change kwin to something else @RazPi [19:00] I tried KDE, when I turned the monitor 90 degrees the mouse decided to scale up 400% [19:00] So I had this comically large mouse on the second screen [19:00] I like Qt but I'm not convinced Plasma is what I want yet, I wonder if there's any good screenshots [19:01] * RazPi visits unixporn for ideas [19:18] https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/9v4exm/plasma_what_have_i_done/ [19:21] wow [19:22] @RazPi, I was going to make a Windows joke ... And then I clicked on the link [19:22] XD [19:23] It's ok @KMyers there's still plenty above to comment on. [19:23] Fwd from AdamOutler: It's true though. Linux is my favorite shell. But for applications requiring GUI, I'm a fan of Windows. [20:04] I think you can alter the compositer in kde [20:07] UI wise, I don't really the wat Win 10 looks [20:45] I think I'm starting to see Linux as more of a utility lately [20:46] It's my favorite tool. [20:46] It runs web services better than any other OS. [20:46] So even if I'm not a big fan of disjoint in ui, it's still a necessary move if it's going to be the "os of a lifetime" much like emacs is the "editor of a lifetime" [20:47] Like how master craftsmen often design and customize their own tools [20:47] Speaking of craftsman [20:47] Christmas [20:48] What about it? [20:48] Ha xD [20:48] That [20:49] You need to pay Jonathan coultons shopvac song in there [20:49] https://youtu.be/y4sOfO8Ei1g [20:53] Windows is more of a utility tool for me. Because currently the only time I would use it if it was for school or work or use an older version of Windows with no internet connection to play older games [20:56] @RazPi I don't understand that video. What is it about? [20:56] They didn't really say why he has the shop vac on. [20:57] It's just the closest song to a garage that I know of [20:57] If there's any hidden meaning to it I'm not aware [20:58] Oh ok. [20:58] But it is indeed a song about a guy in his garage! [20:58] Not sure if there are others. [20:58] I think he's in the basement 😂 [20:58] Man I didn't even get that right [20:59] He's in his workshop though [22:49] @RazPi, GUI wise, I can only really stand Pantheon/cinnamon for some reason. But mostly Pantheon [22:50] I think gtk is nice, but qt seemed easier easier to work with at first [22:51] Then I found glade, but haven't messed with it yet [22:59] Enlightenment is awesome and runs on potatoes [22:59] I just can't get seem to run a DE for more than an hour before turning it off [23:16] Qt is a nicer framework [23:16] I gave up on gtk [23:17] Yep Qt is nice. [23:17] I do have an example usuage here: https://github.com/ahoneybun/keyboard-color-chooser [23:18] Enlightenment crashed on me but I like the idea [23:18] I wish there was a medium powered Qt DE [23:19] I'm conflicted on the usage of qt vs kivy, been using imgui for work and it's amazingly convenient [23:30] LXQT? [23:31] with LXQT, you have a lot of fun connecting to a hidden network... like an arch amount of fun [23:31] wait, you're on slackware [23:31] nevermind [23:41] @RazPi, If kivy on mobile, beware the forever splashscreen [23:41] Prompted me to Port to Java because I'm impatient [23:41] Looks like it has all the necessities though [23:44] You're looking to write desktop apps? [23:48] yes with opengl context [23:49] I need to push custom textures from a camera [23:49] At high speed
