modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:20 PM

#

#

ALSO WHY DOES NUMLOCK KEEP TURNING OFF

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:20 PM

#

who tf uses numlokc

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

to be able to use my fucking numpad xD

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

Press numlock, then press
Super + (a number on numpad)

#

What happens

#

Does it turn off?

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

wait no

#

it seems to be whenever i save the config

#

WHERE IS IT

#

WHERES THE LINE THAT TURNS IT OFF

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

Okay this thread is back to being entertaining

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:22 PM

#

OH FUCK OFF XDD

#

dogekek

#

I MUST FIND IT

#

wait

#

theres no line about

#

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

Heck yeah

#

Shit I haven't responded to my german friend

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

AHA

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

i didnt find the numlock but

#

i found this

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

modest pasture

noooooooooo

#

why

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

huh?

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

why launch firefox

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

i-

#

i didnt enter it

#

thats the default

#

also, in my case that would make sense

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

sus

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

i would probably just remove hyprpaper

#

since i have no idea what that is

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:24 PM

#

modest pasture since i have no idea what that is

guess

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

modest pasture

What the fuck. Only learning now about putting & after things. I have my startup programs set as multiple exec-once lines

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

wallpaper, got it

#

looked it up

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

guess why it ends in paper

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:25 PM

#

fickle shadow What the fuck. Only learning now about putting & after things. I have my startup...

huh?

#

oh

#

we both learned something today :D

#

wait

#

hm

#

hyprpaper can do animated wallpapers

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

btw have u solved ur wallpaper woes

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

mess

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

this is interesting

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:26 PM

#

try swww

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:27 PM

#

#

huh

#

hm

#

not hyprpaper

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:28 PM

#

Ohhhhh

#

@frail pendant Now I know what you mean by the blue lines

#

It just hit me

#

Yeah it would kill me

#

This is my setup

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:29 PM

#

fickle shadow <@456226577798135808> Now I know what you mean by the blue lines

what

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

frail pendant what

You asked how I cope with the blue lines, did you mean the blue lines in Poneko's terminal?

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

im talking about the blue lines n wofi

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Ohhhhh

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

the ones like if u hit tab

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Now I can't unsee this shit thank you

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

lmao

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

#

I still need to configure it

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

omg thats so ugly

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

It's so bad

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

why did you show me this

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

To cause pain

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:32 PM

#

use rofi bro

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:32 PM

#

It's horrendous

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:32 PM

#

frail pendant use rofi bro

Yeah maybe I should

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:32 PM

#

#

dogekek

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:33 PM

#

frail pendant why did you show me this

I literally just started configuring wofi, then exited midway through and yeah it's looked like that for months
ADHD m8

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:33 PM

#

i can give u my config

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:34 PM

#

I'd rather it be made by me, but thank you >3

#

<3(

#

I feel using other people's configs is cheating

#

I forgot why I stopped using Rofi

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:35 PM

#

ok

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:35 PM

#

I'm pretty sure I will encounter it again, but there was a reason

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:35 PM

#

ayooooo

#

live wallpaper is working out

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

Yeah boyyyyyyy

#

No more anime hyprland

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

now i gotta make it loop

#

for now, still anime hyprland

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

Ewwww

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

ok

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:36 PM

#

I am so happy I did not get Hyprland while there was no anime girl

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

i cant show the wallpaper tho

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

wtf

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

xD

#

might be too sussy for this server

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

hypr chan is cool

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

Fuck why do things break

#

My mousepad with wrist wrest has got a tear in it

#

rest

#

I can't type okay

#

Maybe my project tonight is configure Rofi then

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:41 PM

#

well

#

hyprland crashed

#

XD

#

logged me out too

#

my very first linux crash

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:42 PM

#

It did that to me the first day I installed it, and it never did it ever again

#

Because I was still in the testing phase, I killed it

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:43 PM

#

hm

#

well i tried to move between workspaces

#

since i had to kinda of spam that shortcut

#

then everything went black

#

it popped me out on a black input prompt

#

and then asked me to log in

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:43 PM

#

Mad

#

I do understand your pain though Poneko. It was the reason I had been trying Gnome recently

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

cool

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

The heavy reliance on workspaces

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

i just like gnome because

#

it just works

#

and i can just move things around without any shortcuts

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

eh i get it

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

I mean the shortcuts I require

#

But I keep opening Gnome now, and then a bit after I'm like "fuck it Hyprland"

#

Because I'm just so used to Hyprland now

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:47 PM

#

hm

#

ima be honest

#

i am just really tempted to just go back to gnome

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:48 PM

#

What I mainly like about Hyprland is you have heavy control over EVERYTHING.
But with something like Gnome, you start with something someone else created, and you have to configure it

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:48 PM

#

i can tell you this right now

#

aside from adding two shortcuts

#

i have not configured gnome

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

me personally i like hyprland for copying someone elses config bc

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

it just has a lot of things already set up

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

gnome is significantly more complicated

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

Yeah that's why people love DE's. Because everything they require is already there

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

im not exactly using linux because im crazy about customisation

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

modest pasture and i can just move things around without any shortcuts

shortcuts are supposed to make it easier

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

do i think its really cool?

#

absolutely

#

but i mostly do it for the privacy

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:50 PM

#

rich frigate shortcuts are supposed to make it easier

barely anything beats click and dragging with a mouse

#

xD

#

atleast when it comes to easy

#

i dont have to remember any shortcut

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:50 PM

#

you don't have to use the mouse

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:50 PM

#

but i do use the mouse

#

a lot even

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:50 PM

#

modest pasture barely anything beats click and dragging with a mouse

Press Super, click and drag a window ;)

#

Hyprland

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:50 PM

#

you can keep your hands on the keyboard which is very nice

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:51 PM

#

ive literally been using the mouse more on hyprland than on gnome xD

#

because i keep having to refocus windows

#

instead of just alt tab

#

and in the end i have to click on a bunch of stuff too

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:51 PM

#

In hyprland there does exist grouping which will solve your problem

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

will it let me overlap things?

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

Yes

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

then at that point, if i just have everything essentially floating

#

whats the point in a wm xD

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

isn't there a shortcut to change focus

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

there is

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

modest pasture then at that point, if i just have everything essentially floating

No thbat's not what grouping is

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

but i dont want to navigate that maze

#

i just want to click

#

and workspaces just really arent for me

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:53 PM

#

So with grouping, it groups windows into individual tabs, and you can click the tabs to get to the window

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:53 PM

#

i dont have nearly enough things open to justify using workspaces

#

that doesnt really fix my issue though

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:53 PM

#

im very much convinced tiling wm is just not going to work for you

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:53 PM

#

I mean same here

#

but i did want to give it a very fair try

#

with supervision

#

because well

#

its easy to just randomly shit on something

#

its not as easy to try and actually explain it

#

and well, to explain my issues, its easiest to experience them

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:54 PM

#

I am very happy that you actually experienced it though

#

Some people just shit on things they haven't tried

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:55 PM

#

I do usually try to avoid that

#

unless its a niche situation where i just want to piss someone off

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:55 PM

#

ye that's very respectable

#

you have earned the right to shit on them now

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:55 PM

#

usually im just a walking shitpost

#

but there ARE things i care about

#

experiencing things is one of those

#

i can be serious when i want to be xD

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

I mean like, at the point you are on your journey, you have only just scratched the surface. tiling wm's are a huge learning curve and you have to put aside a huge amount of your time in order to make it at least usable.
Like right now, your configuration is in nowhere near a usable state

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

And that's the big appeal with gnome for me

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

Exactly

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

it is immediately quite usable right off the bat

#

on the other hand, i do also definitely see the appeal with WMs

#

for the right people

#

there are people with the understanding they need to properly configure things and really make it theirs

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:57 PM

#

I just have that drive to create, so that's why I've gone along that journey. I don't want to just accept what's handed to me on a plate

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:58 PM

#

fickle shadow I just have that drive to create, so that's why I've gone along that journey. I ...

thats very fair

#

i do also like to create, albeit in a different way

#

this for example

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:58 PM

#

I mean exactly. For you to even be using Linux in the first place shows that drive

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

To be fair

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

making the config work is part of the fun

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

I mostly use linux for the privacy

#

thats my main reason

#

I went with arch because with that i KNOW there isnt anything shady preinstalled

#

because theres basically nothing preinstalled xD

#

i didnt start with arch tho

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

But still, it's still a learning curve, you have gone away from what everyone else uses which is Windows. Even if it's for privacy or not

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

pop, mint, endeavour, arch

frail pendant Jul 23, 2023, 10:00 PM

#

what did this thread turn into tho

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:00 PM

#

the end of a journey

#

side note

#

i cannot unsee the owo

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:00 PM

#

rich frigate making the config work is part of the fun

It do be fun. That satisfaction of getting something to work, oh yeah that feels good

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:01 PM

#

and now you cant either

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:01 PM

#

modest pasture i cannot unsee the owo

FUCKKKKKKKKKK

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:01 PM

#

you're welcome

#

woe, uwufetch be upon ye

#

rich frigate Jul 23, 2023, 10:01 PM

#

my system has been very usable and solid for a long time so I have nothing to tweak and it's boring

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:02 PM

#

i made myself a very stable and usable gnome experience

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:02 PM

#

I'm never happy with my system, always tweaking something. It's been just eww lately though

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:02 PM

#

the packages are mostly for like, games and compatibbility

#

but aside from that, the adjustments have been minimal

#

i havent really introduced much to make things unstable

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

Oh yeah

#

When you go back to Gnome

#

Remember

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

yes

#

ill do that right now actually

#

and then usetimeshift to go back to the snapshot i made

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

Uninstall xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland

#

install xdg-desktop-portal-gnome

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

i dont have to uninstall

#

i can just jump over

#

it wont run for long xD

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

It doesn't work like that

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

wait so

#

i cant uninstall the hyprland portal now

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

Oh no you can

#

You can do it while in gnome

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

and i cant install gnome now

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

No you can

#

Wait you didn't uninstall gnome?

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

no?

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

Good

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

only that portal

#

was like .6MB

fickle shadow Jul 23, 2023, 10:05 PM

#

Yeah that's fine

#

Because like without that portal, gnome will take ages to open things

modest pasture Jul 23, 2023, 10:05 PM

#

fair enuff

#

well

#

#

time to go back

#

i did learn some things tho

#

might use them to make gnome a bit better c;
