since there's so many of us nerds here I figured it might be fun

ooh evil
vital geyser
I have a mostly black and red room setup so I stick with it on my desktop too
primal socket
I'd have lots of earthly tones, browns, greys and blacks if I tried matching my room
vital geyser
primal socket
wait your bed is floating on two kallaxs?
vital geyser
all my setup is using pywal though so the colour is all generated using the background
primal socket
what's the space in-between for 
ahh I tried that, pywal never got it right so I painstakingly figured it all out on my own
vital geyser
well its 2 big ones and 2 small ones then put 4x2 panels across
under it is just like, easier to access the storage off to the right and put other stuff under there (which would overwise be wasted space)
primal socket
very interesting setup
primal socket
haha cozyyy
vital geyser
you got a custom homepage right? 😄
primal socket
homepage?
vital geyser
like on your browser
primal socket
actually I don't, just use the firefox one
primal socket
I'm not much of a coder
vital geyser
ahhh okok
primal socket
the best I can make is little scripts with a lot of pain and effort, or some simple c/c++ programs for MCU stuff
vital geyser
getcha getcha!
ngl most of my stuff on this setup is scripted
hence why i also find it hard to move away from lol
primal socket
I actually never even thought a custom homepage like that was a thing you could do
vital geyser
yeah course! theres also a lot of premade ones too that you could use
things like Homer, uhhhh
fuck i forgot names of the others
primal socket
you use qutebrowser actively? I tried it years ago but it was just really rough around the edges
primal socket
interesting, I think i'm too stuck on firefox way of life and all the extensions I use there to move away
vital geyser
the only thing it doesnt really have is plugins but for youtube and stuff you can use greasemonkey scripts to fastforward ads x16 and auto click the skip (so you dont even see them, its like a flicker)
primal socket
yeah, little anemic for my use I think
I settled on using vim-extensions to get the main attraction on firefox anyway
vital geyser
aside from that, its got a fairly good adblock built in- kinda like a dns adblock
but yeah you could just use vimium or whatever the plugin is called and sorta have the same functionality so
primal socket
originally used vimperator and pentadactyl, then when those died I bounced around until I settled on vimium and it's pretty solid
vital geyser
ah yeah getcha, yeah i use that on my other browsers too but qutebrowser is my main one tho
primal socket
sad we didn't get more rices though, I wanted to see what people are doing
vital geyser
yeah me too lol, always nice to see how different people set theirs up
ill change background and toggle to light mode and show you how it all changes
primal socket
ahhh fancyy
vital geyser
my qutebrowser template for the accent colours needs a little tweaking it looks like tho maybe lol
primal socket
so how's the workflow actually, pywal generates a file with the colors and you use various techniques to link all the different parts of your desktop to those colors?
vital geyser
better in dark mode (which is what i use like 100% of the time)
vital geyser
so how's the workflow actually, pywal generates a file with the colors and you u...
yeah this is pretty much it.. most software has their own pywal plugin or theme and such.. but if they dont then you can create your own template which pywal will then generate and you could use that in your own projects
in the qutebrowser case, i made a template and imported the colours on the webpage and used them
primal socket
ahh, figures, I just tried it to generate one-off palettes to test but eventually just settled on manually finding the palette I like best, probably never changing from these colors :>
vital geyser
honestly dont blame you, i spent too much time making pywal work with everything and scripted a lot of shit too lol
i also made this discord theme too
primal socket
yeahhh it's a lot of work ricing for sure
vital geyser
saying that i need to make pywal change the accent colours in discord too thats one thing i forgot about
also added in random things like auto splits in i3wm too cause it always annoyed me
so if the focused window is bigger height-wise, when you open a program it will auto split horizontally and if its widen, then vertically
if i remember right that functionality is in bspwm but wasn't in i3 so i added it myself lol
primal socket
Hyprland by default works like that but I'm sure there are ways to change it
I like it this way as well
vital geyser
yeah when hyperland pretty much come out, i was surprised it had it by default and i was like SICK i wont have to change anything lol
also made a lot of scripts for tmux and other shit too, like rofi etc
primal socket
that's pretty cool, I don't have anything special in my wofi I don't think
