I've been theming my latest device quite a bit, but that's nothing new is it? I wrote a little bit about how much I enjoy theming and customizing my tech!

Nearly got crazy with #i3 / #Conky because I absolutely couldn’t get the windows displayed correct. Found at least a config to use as template: github.com/n4zz/Space_conky

Found some great inspiration from Evgeny Rodygin here artstation.com/erodygin

I just opened up chromium, and it is using my system theme, for both color AND the tabs bar???? My firefox has never done that????¿¿?? I'm using cinnamon theme, semabe, and does anyone know how to make my firefox do that, all the old tricks don't seem to work any more. And it is so so beautiful.

So, start to wrap my head around. Not fully yet, but somewhat. LUA seems to be something to learn, too, if you want to do some #ricing.

@zquestz published an article on Gtk theming which I found fascinating. It is an overview of the kind of things you have to consider when trying to create your own theme for #Linux . He fusses over the little details that are very important when doing UI/UX design properly. He also made sure the themes worked properly on various Gtk desktop environments, including Cinnamon, MATE, and Xfce (three of the best DEs, in my humble opinion).

He also mentions the qt6gtk2 plugin for Qt which I did not know about. It translates Gtk themes to Qt themes so all of your applications, whether they use Gtk or Qt, have the correct theme. This is extremely useful since the impedance mismatch between Qt and Gtk is the biggest source of UI/UX inconsistencies in Linux apps.

@a_blahaj Take a deep breath and think why want to rice. I once sat a whole day setting up hyprland, only to realise that I'm trying to have all the features my KDE have. So I took a deep breath and said, maybe I'll stick to KDE now and I'll tinker it later.

So maybe start from what u need and what u love.

This is #ricing related but...
If you want to bathe in 90s/00s desktop UI nostalgia and are on KDE Plasma, there's a very nice theme that mimics @haikuos with crisp looks and great icons.
That's of course if you want to live the lie that you're using HaikuOS while not really doing it.

store.kde.org/p/2158621

Here is the list of HaikuOS icons, which very much have design guidelines just like Gnome:
svgmix.com/collections/haikuos

#haikuos

Screenshot of a KDE Plasma desktop interface with a BeOS/HaikuOS theme. The design is reminiscent of the 90s/2000s interfaces look and feel, but updated to a smoother definition for modern high pixel density displays. The icons are slightly cartoonish while retaining a sober office look.

GoToSocial frontend lookin' real good. This is what that means to me: high contrast, high density; usability; blends in with the rest of my insane color scheme, with the window manager, and presenting an amount of blue light sufficient to keep me awake, "lol"… this is "ricing" to me, if to no one else.

#fediverse #ricing #unixPorn #goToSocial #UI #UX #tilingWindowManager

A screenshot of the masto-fe frontend for GoToSocial "riced out"—according to my personal definition of that.  Various shades of blues and blue-grays, and black.  High contrast, high density.  Blends in nicely with the bottom bar on my main screen (as shown here).

Just wanted to write that I don't know why but I am loving the Catppuccin color theme. Its the absolutely best color scheme I have ever used for a longer time. It has gotten me from "theming by wallpaper" to picking a nice wallpaper for the colorscheme

I need to change the color themes slightly to be matching with my unlocked UI. I did a rewrite for that as well. Instead of using waybar and eww I rewrote everything with quickshell. The last thing I did implement where the notifications.

There are still some panels on my backlog but they are not that important to me.

#Linux #ArchLinux #Hyprland #Ricing #Quickshell

A screenshot showing a computer desktop. Beside the background showing circles colored in orange, red, blue and green there is a large triangle with a arch like cutout on the lower end in the center of the image.

All those circle are using two colors which blend into each other. The top of the screen is showing a single bar with icon's and text.

On the left there is a arch logo visible, followed by a date and time to the right. The last icon on the left site is a note block. The middle of the bar is showing the numbers 1 - 5 where 5 is having a orange backdrop with an orange line below, showing that it is currently selected. The right side is showing a running man icon followed by the battery percentage and icon. Next to that the current WiFi with the connectivity strength is shown. The last item to the right is a showing a burger menu icon with a 2 inside of an circle.This screenshot is showing the exact same background and top bar as the image before, but there is an additional part on the left side next to the logo.

The screenshot is showing a "Latest Notification" area with a single notification inside informing the user that a screenshot was taken lately.The screenshot shows the same image as the first one, but there is a bar visible to the right.

The bar is built in a vertical manor. The first area is showing the user image as well as information about the username, uptime and kernel version.

Bellow that area there are two buttons visible, showing the connection state for bluetooth and WiFi. This is followed by control sliders for speaker, microphone and brightness. Bellow that there is a notification area showing past notifications. Each notification does have a "x" allowing it to be dismissed.

The last item is a power off button on the bottom left.

I finally found a solution to take a screenshot of hyprlock. I simple did screen record via obs and extracted a single image with Kdenlive.

There is properly a much better solution but it is working

#ArchLinux #Linux #Hyprland #Hyprlock #Kdenlive #Ricing

Screenshot showing a blurred background with circles in orange, green and blue. In the middle of the screen a rectangle is visible asking for a password.

At the top of the rectangle a pixel art user image can be shown, below that there is the username "xanatos" written. This is followed by the current time "23:09" and date "Freitag der 22. August". After that there is a textbox waiting for an import with the text ""Enter Password" written.

In the bottom right corner an icon showing the current device charge rate is visible.

Anyone else use the Industry theme for Vim (Neovim, in my case)?

#vim #neovim #ricing #unixporn

" Reset to dark background, then reset everything to defaults:

I know, it's bad. I was determined that I was gonna have this whole thing exactly how I wanted it without consulting any LLM even once, and that's what I did.

Got bored this afternoon and reworked my hyprlock screen. It's not heavily influenced by raw.githubusercontent.com/maha that image.

Sure I do use my own color scheme and also added some additional stuff like my battery capacity but as it is that close I more or less recreated that optic.

История о том, как одна ошибка драйвера поменяла моё взаимодействие с системой (и не только)

Несколько лет назад я решил полностью обновить компьютер. Интереса ради (а ещё из-за урезанного бюджета) в качестве основы была выбрана пара зеонов на относительно неплохой материнке. Не буду расписывать все комплектующие, т.к. для истории они не так важны и, вероятно, для этого понадобится ещё одна статья. После сборки на сие чудо было решено накатить 11 винду, т.к. было интересно потыкать, по мощности железа хватало за глаза, а ограничения обходились парой записей в реестре. После возни с настройками и выпиливания тогда ещё не очень большого количества мусора система пару лет стабильно работала: тянула базовые задачи, разработку на Python, Java и Wiring, игры, какое-то время была хостом для нескольких ботов, иногда обновлялась. Система была прекрасным инструментом и всё было хорошо... до поры .
